Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549
“JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

Financial Strategy 2016/17 to 2018/19 PDF
Cabinet, 17th February 2016: FINANCIAL STRATEGY 2016/17 – 2018/19 Committee and Date Cabinet 17th February 2016 12:00noon FINANCIAL STRATEGY 2016/17 – 2018/19 Responsible Officer James Walton e-mail: [email protected] Tel: 01743 255011 1. Summary This report presents for approval the 2016/17 budget and also identifies the proposals for 2017/18 and 2018/19 budgets which will be further developed throughout 2016/17. Cabinet has received 3 financial strategy reports over the last year setting out the budget position for the Council over the next 3 years. The report to Cabinet on 28 October 2015 set out the development of a Sustainable Business Model to allow the Council to consider what services will be affordable going forward. Savings proposals to balance 2016/17 were identified in the report on 9 December 2015 and following the Provisional Local Government Finance Settlement on 17 December 2015, the Financial Strategy report to Cabinet on 27 January refined the 2016/17 budget and provided details of what service budgets would look like in 2017/18 and 2018/19 within the current resource projections. As previously recommended to Council in the report to Cabinet on 9 December 2015, increases in Council Tax of 2% specifically to be used for Adult Social Care and a further 1.99% increase to be used as general resources are included in the projections. This report provides the final position for 2016/17 budget which has been updated for the Final Local Government Finance Settlement, announced on 8 February 2016. This has seen an improved position for Shropshire Council, with an additional £5.5m in Rural Services Delivery Grant and Transitionary grant provided for 2016/17, reducing to £3m in 2017/18.

Rural Settlement List 2014
National Non Domestic Rates RURAL SETTLEMENT LIST 2014 1 1. Background Legislation With effect from 1st April 1998, the Local Government Finance and Rating Act 1997 introduced a scheme of mandatory rate relief for certain kinds of hereditament situated in ‘rural settlements’. A ‘rural settlement’ is defined as a settlement that has a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable year in question. The Non-Domestic Rating (Rural Settlements) (England) (Amendment) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/3176) prescribes the following hereditaments as being eligible with effect from 1st April 2010:- Sole food shop within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole general store within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole post office within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £8,500; Sole public house within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Sole petrol filling station within a rural settlement and has a RV of less than £12,500; Section 47 of the Local Government Finance Act 1988 provides that a billing authority may grant discretionary relief for hereditaments to which mandatory relief applies, and additionally to any hereditament within a rural settlement which is used for purposes which are of benefit to the local community. Sections 42A and 42B of Schedule 1 of the Local Government and Rating Act 1997 dictate that each Billing Authority must prepare and maintain a Rural Settlement List, which is to identify any settlements which:- a) Are wholly or partly within the authority’s area; b) Appear to have a population of not more than 3,000 on 31st December immediately before the chargeable financial year in question; and c) Are, in that financial year, wholly or partly, within an area designated for the purpose.

A Review of the Tectonic History of the Shropshire Area
ISSN 1750-855X (Print) ISSN 1750-8568 (Online) A review of the tectonic history of the Shropshire area 1 James Butler BUTLER, J.B. (1990). A review of the tectonic history of the Shropshire area. Proceedings of the Shropshire Geological Society , 9, 20–34. A review of the tectonic data available for Shropshire, relating this to information which has become available from the exploration of the north-west continental shelf. The tectonic history of Shropshire records short bursts of compression producing folding and wrench faulting as a result of continental collision, followed by longer periods of tension, deposition and reversal of movement along the wrench fault system. The County lies upon the Midland Block, comprising Longmyndian and Charnian rock to which was accreted Island Arc volcanics and related sediments along the line of the Pontesford Lineament in the late Precambrian. The so-called "Caledonian grain" was determined at this time and was reactivated many times subsequently. Sediments were folded during the Taconic pulse in mid-Ordovician, and then continental collision along the Iapetus suture in mid-Devonian intensified the Caledonian grain. At the end of the Devonian, collision occurred to the south of the Midland Block. Pulses during the Carboniferous produced the Hercynian basins and welded the continents into one super-continent: Pangea. Break-up of Pangea was followed by a taphrogenic regime with rifting (Cimmerian) in the Permo-Triassic and early Cretaceous. Compressive forces operated at the end of the Cretaceous with reactivation of old wrench faults. Finally, Styrian compression inverted the Weald-type basins and most likely elevated the Welsh Massif at the same time, some 10 million years ago.

B4364 Road Closure February 11Th
B4364 Road Closure February 11 th – 13 th – alternative routes from Bridgnorth to the Pheasant at Neenton The current road closure is on the B4364 Bridgnorth to Ludlow road at Faintree marked X on the map – where the temporary traffic lights have been for some months now. The road is closed day and night but Shropshire Council told us today, 11 th February, they expect the road to be re-opened by the evening of Thursday 13 th February Access from the Ludlow, Stottesdon and Ditton Priors directions is unaffected . If coming from Bridgnorth , the official diversion would take you to Ludlow and back but there are shorter options if you wish to use them. The Blue Route , which stays to the wider roads, is to drive via Morville, Ditton Priors and Cleobury North to Neenton. • Turn left in Morville onto the B4368 Corvedale road. • At Monkhopton take the left turn signposted Ditton Priors • Drive straight through Ditton Priors onto the Cleobury North road • When you meet the B4364 at Cleobury North turn Left and the Pheasant is just over a mile away. The Green Route, which uses some single track roads but is shorter, brings you half the way along the B4364, then diverts through Oldfield and Wrickton to Neenton: • Proceed as normal along the B4364 towards Neenton, past the Down and past the right turn to Chetton • You may need to pass some “Road Closed” signs to get here! • Midway up the long hill from the Chetton turn take the Left turn signposted Middleton Scriven and Oldfield. • Then at every junction turn right, first through Oldfield and then, some 2.5 miles later, take the turn signed Wrickton and follow that road to the Pheasant Do take care if you take any alternative routes, especially keeping an eye out for potholes which are more frequent on minor roads.

An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.
