  • “The Mallets at Ash”
    “THE MALLETS AT ASH” This history forms chapter five of my book “ASH: an ancient estate in north Devon”. It will be followed on this website by chapter 6: “House and buildings”, and chapter 7: “Upstairs, downstairs”, in the fairly near future. The remainder of my book deals with Anglo-Saxon and Medieval Ash, and post- Mallet times to the present day. The complete book is available from me at [email protected] Dave Dingley Dowland Devon There is news of pictures of the Mallets at Ash which should be available later in 2007 CHAPTER FIVE: THE MALLETS AT ASH. 5.1 BACKGROUND: THE END OF THE MIDDLE AGES In the 16th C England gradually emerged from the rigid archaism of feudalism, and from a countryside of warring barons & wandering outlaws; and despite the occasional bloody bitterness of the Reformation – particularly in the Devon countryside, which clung to its old Catholic ways well into Elizabethan times – the land progressively became a more ordered and safer place. Husbandry in Devon in the 16th & 17th centuries apparently developed into some of the best in the country [2]; its entirely enclosed non-communal agriculture was more efficient, and locally more flexible than the long-abandoned open-field system, as each lord strove to utilise his land to its best potential. The infield/outfield system of earlier times remained popular (known as “ley” farming in the 17th C), since pasture was always plentiful in N Devon on slopes & wetlands, ensuring that pastoralism retained its dominance. Devon became one of the leading textile counties in the 16th C, and Exeter, Totnes, and then Barnstaple became trade centres [10].

  • North Devon's Biosphere Reserve Eco-Museum Concept Ppt
    9th of October 2012 Eco-museum Concept North Devon’s Biosphere Reserve 9th of October 2012 Eco-museum: what is it? An Eco-museum is a network of already existing sites (museums, attractions, activities, places) focused on the identity of a place, largely based on local participation and aiming to enhance the welfare and development of local communities. The Eco-museum can then be defined as a "museum made by the Community for the Community ", as the first users of this museum are just the inhabitants of the locality. It is a celebration of the past, an introduction to the present and a project for the future of the local community. The objective of the Eco-museum is to provide space where the community can research his recent or remote past, putting the spotlight, not only the objects of everyday life, but also landscapes, architecture, ancient knowledge and oral traditions . In fact, it also deals with the promotion of educational activities and research focusing on the direct involvement of the whole population and local institutions. There are presently about 300 operating Eco-museums in the world; about 200 are in Europe, mainly in France, Italy, Spain, and Poland1. The Eco-museum can be developed in different ways, for example: - there are Eco-museums comprising one museum where local information and archives are available for researches. Two examples are: Easdalemuseum (exhibits) and Kilmartin House Museum (exhibits and research library) - open air museums, like Skye Eco-museum and Dunaskin Open Air Museum in Scotland, Beamish Open- air museum in England - spread into the area with one big point of attraction, a world heritage site designated by UNESCO and focused around one theme such as Ironbridge & Pennine.
