  • Carlisle Castle Exhibition Plan July 4
    NATIONAL COLLECTIONS GROUP Curatorial Department Carlisle Castle July 202020120 11111 Exhibition Plan 1.1.1. Introduction In 2010 it was agreed to allocate £100K from the Property Investment Programme to create a new exhibition at Carlisle Castle. The castle has suffered from a lack of investment in recent years and the provision of interpretation for visitors is currently very poor. This project builds on work carried out in 2009 and 2010 including a concept paper for developing the entire castle site and an interpretation plan describing phases of work that could deliver an improved visitor experience. 2.2.2. Parameters of the current project 2.1 Aims of the new exhibition 1. to provide an interesting and engaging introduction to the long history of Carlisle Castle 2. to provide ground level, DDA compliant, interpretation 3. to provide an additional resource for education groups (probably not for use as an introduction to discovery Visits due to the size of the space, but for use for project work and FEV) 4. to provide an upturn in visitor numbers (with support from marketing) 2.2 Audiences Market research, including a visitor survey in 2009, has indicated that the following audiences should be targeted for this project. Families are the primary audience for the new exhibition. Carlisle is one of the top visits for families and so we need to respond to this audience and grow it as much as possible. There is a specific opportunity to attract more locals and day-trippers, currently underrepresented in our visitor numbers. EducatEducationion groups have been targeted in recent years as a growth area for the castle through the introduction of new Discovery Visits.

  • The Obsidional Money of the Great Rebellion
    THE OBSIDIONAL MONEY OF THE GREAT REBELLION. 1642-1649. BY PHILIP NELSON, M.D. HE period of the Civil war, 1642-1649, or as it has been termed by Clarendon, "The Great Rebellion," is a section of our national history unsurpassed in interest and the accomplishment of great purposes. Throughout this time intestine warfare was carried on with varying results between the party of the King, or the Cavaliers, ancl the supporters of Parliamentary Reform. From the austerities of their style of dress and habits the: latter became known as the Puritan party or Roundheads ; and this- struggle, whatever its merits, by overthrowing the feudal system,, initiated that liberty and sense of justice, which are among the proudest attributes of the English nation to-day. Into the circumstances which led by insensible steps to the outbreak of the civil war, it is not within our province to enquire : it is sufficient here to remark that the questions in dispute between the King and Parliament were such, that both parties despairing of any settlement or compromise, determined to put the matter to the arbitrament of the sword and to " let loose the dogs of war." Upon August 22, 1642, Charles erected his standard at Nottingham, a banner inscribed with the legend, " Religio Pro- testans Leges Angliae Libertas Parliamenti," an inscription ex- pressing sentiments which in the opinion of the opposition were somewhat open to question. The first engagement, a cavalry skirmish, took place at Powick Bridge, near Worcester, September 25, 1642, where the Royalists under Prince Rupert, the King's nephew, were u 2 292 The Obsidioal Money of the Great Rebellion.
