  • Love Letters Between Lady Susan Hay and Lord James Ramsay 1835
    LOVE LETTERS BETWEEN LADY SUSAN HAY AND LORD JAMES RAMSAY 1835 Edited by Elizabeth Olson with an introduction by Fran Woodrow in association with The John Gray Centre, Haddington I II Contents Acknowledgements iv Editing v Maps vi Family Trees viii Illustrations xvi Introduction xxx Letters 1 Appendix 102 Further Reading 103 III Acknowledgements he editor and the EERC are grateful to East Lothian Council Archives Tand Ludovic Broun-Lindsay for permission to reproduce copies of the correspondence. Thanks are due in particular to Fran Woodrow of the John Gray Centre not only for providing the editor with electronic copies of the original letters and generously supplying transcriptions she had previously made of some of them, but also for writing the introduction. IV Editing he letters have been presented in a standardised format. Headers provide Tthe name of the sender and of the recipient, and a number by which each letter can be identified. The salutations and valedictions have been reproduced as they appear in the originals, but the dates when the letters were sent have been standardised and placed immediately after the headers. Due to the time it took for letters from England to reach Scotland, Lord James Ramsay had already sent Lady Susan Hay three before she joined the correspondence. This time lapse, and the fact that thereafter they started writing to each other on a more or less daily basis, makes it impossible to arrange the letters sensibly in order of reply. They have instead been arranged chronologically, with the number of the reply (where it can be identified) added to the notes appended to each letter.

  • Lower and Middle Palaeolithic Leicestershire and Rutland: Progress and Potential by Anne Graf
    Leic.Arch. Sept 2002 11/10/02 7:54 AM Page 1 Lower and Middle Palaeolithic Leicestershire and Rutland: progress and potential by Anne Graf Drawing on archaeological and geological research, recent finds, museum collections and borehole evidence, this paper describes the changing local landscape and environment round the Cromerian-period Bytham river valley, possibly the major early entry route to Britain from Europe; the succeeding pro-glacial Lake Harrison and present-day post-glacial rivers; and highlights deposits with Palaeolithic archaeological potential. Palaeolithic tools of quartzite, comparable with other Midlands raw materials, and of andesitic and Charnian tuff may suggest occupation from around 600,000 BC, while flint tools suggest at least intermittent post-Anglian occupation, followed by probable abandonment from after 160,000 BC until possible Devensian re-occupation by Neanderthalers post- 60,000 BC. Introduction The last twenty years have seen very exciting results for the Palaeolithic period in Leicestershire and Rutland. This paper discusses these results, which are placed in the contexts both of the local landscape changes, and of the growing national understanding of key Palaeolithic issues. The paper aims to provide a summary of current knowledge of the Lower and Middle Palaeolithic occupants and their environments and landscapes in these two counties, and to highlight potential for further investigation. The local, and many national, sites, to which references can be found in the bibliography, are presented in the timechart in illus. 1, with their relative positions within current archaeological and geological divisions and phases. Throughout the timechart and the rest of this paper ‘thousand [years] ago’ will be abbreviated to ‘ka’, while the oxygen isotope stages now used for international date correlations (see below) will also be abbreviated, so that, for example, OIS-16 indicates oxygen isotope stage 16.

  • The Roman Sites of South-West Leicestershire: Mancetter, Sapcote
    PI.ATE I. HIXCKLEY BUST Scale : J. (Height 15i inches) THE ROMAN SITES OF SOUTH-WEST LEICESTERSHIRE BY ARTHUR J. PICKERING, F.G.S. PART II MANCETTER (MANDUESSEDUM) SAPCOTE, BARWELL AND HINCKLEY WITH NOTES ON ADJACENT SITES Mancetter (Manduessedum) Plate II THERE seems to have been little difference of opinion among early historians as to the site of the Manduessedum of the Antonine Itinerary. The well-defined earthworks astride the Watling Street near the village of Mancetter conform in plan to other recognised Roman stations and approximately to the distance north of Venonse (XII m.p.) given in the Itinerary. Although many Roman antiquities have from time to time been unearthed in this neighbourhood, it was not until 1927 that any systematic investigation had been carried out to fix the station site definitely. About this time, Messrs. Flowers & Sons, I«td.—the owners of the Bull Inn—were contemplating the construction of a car park adjoining their premises. Fortunately, the earthworks had been scheduled by H.M. Office of Works under the Ancient Monuments Act of 1913, and, as the Bull Inn is entirely within the ramparts, no alterations could be made without their sanction. As the time seemed opportune for investigation, the Birming­ ham Archaeological Society offered to excavate the site in question. This was carried out under the supervision of Mr. B. H. St. J. O'Neil, who published his report in that Society's Transactions of 1928. The ground excavated measured 106 ft. by 36 ft., with its longest axis parallel to and adjoining the Watling Street.

  • History of the Murrays
    History of the Murrays The Murray’s trace their heritage back to the 12th Century and take their name from the great province of Moray, once a local kingdom. It was during this time that the Flemish lords crossed the North Sea and established themselves in the Scottish realm. Among them was Freskin, son of Ollec. Either Freskin or his son, William, intermarried with the ancient royal house of Moray. The senior line of the Murrays took the surname of Sutherland and became Earls of Sutherland in 1235.Thereafter, the chiefs of the Murrays were the Lords of Petty in Moray, who also became Lords of Bothwell in Clydesdale before 1253. An heir of this line, Sir Andrew Murray, was the brilliant young general who, along with William Wallace, led the Scots in 1297 intheir first uprising against the English conquerors. He was mortally-wounded while winning his famous victory at Stirling Bridge. His son, Sir Andrew Murray, 4th Lord of Bothwell, 3rd Regent of Scotland, married Christian Bruce, a sister of King Robert the Bruce. He was captured at Roxburgh early in 1333 and was a prisoner in England at the time of the battle of Halidon Hill. He obtained his freedom in time to march to the relief of his wife, who was bravely defending Kildrummy Castle. Sir Andrew commenced with unabated spirit to struggle in the cause of independence and died in 1338. The last Murray Lord of Bothwell died in 1360 of the plague. The chiefship of the Murray’s fell into doubt amongst the various scattered branches of the name — from Sutherland and Murray itself — through Perthshire and Stirlingshire to Annandale, and the Borders.
