During that period Pamela has given so much of her time to CSG Limerick/Coolbanagher/ affairs not only for the benefit of the CSG membership directly but also has Carrickfergus represented us on the international stage. Her election to the Comité Perma- 2-3 nent of the Château-Gaillard Colloque at about the same time allowed those links between that august body and the CSG to be strengthened for the benefit Diary Dates of castle studies more widely.

- The Battle of Wakefield and the Wars of the Roses KEITH DOCKRAY THE BA'ITLE 0F WAKEFIELD,fought on 30 December 1460 (almost certainly, and unusually, during the afternoon), was the fifth of about fifteen set-piece military confrontations that punctuated the so-called War's of the Roses between 1455 and 1487. The most serious and protracted civil wars England had experienced since the Norman Conquest, their origins can be fou‘nd mainly in the political turmoil occasioned by the disastrous rule of the third Lancastrian King Henry VI (1422-1461). In particular, the King’s simplicity of mind and pathetically trusting nature left him fatally vulnerable to grasping favourites and unscrupulous ministers: even in the 1440s and early 1450s, when he remained more or less compos menu's, it was bad enough; once he had suffered a complete mental breakdown in 1453, from which he probably never completely recovered, his shortcomings became ever more evident and he was certainly incapable of containing the mounting baronial rivalries that eventually culminated in out- and-out civil war.1 Ever since he had attained his majority in 1437, Henry VI’s failure to control royal patronage judiciously had encouraged baronial jealousy and resentment. In particular, since the late 1440s, there had developed an increasingly bitter personal rivalry between Richard Plantagenet Duke of York, the most powerful magnate in the land (who also happened to have a strong claim to the 'throne), and Edmund Beaufort Duke of Somerset who, despite bearing a good deal of responsibility for the loss of virtually all England’s possessions in France by the autumn of 1453, enjoyed more than his fair share of the fruits of royal favour in the early 14505.

Conisbrough Circular Walk ‘Castles and Crossings’
Conisbrough Circular Walk ‘Castles and Crossings’ Walk summary: A short walk around Conisbrough, taking Page | 1 in the myths and legends of the area. With excellent views of the castle, follow in the footsteps of the painter JMW Turner who painted and sketched local scenes including the Walker family’s canon boring works Distance: 1.5 miles / 2.35 kilometres Duration: approximately 45 minutes not including stops Terrain: Riverside and urban walking, with slopes up to the castle Nearest Car Park: Conisbrough Train Station, DN12 3DQ 1. Conisbrough Train Station From the train station head up the road towards Conisbrough. Turn left onto Doncaster Road and immediately left again to follow the footpath between the modern houses and the railway track. The name Conisbrough is derived from the Anglo-Saxon Cyningesburh, “the defended burh of the King” suggesting that the area belonged to an Anglo-Saxon king before the Norman Conquest. Archaeological remains suggest that there has been a settlement in the Wellgate area since at least the 2nd or 3rd century AD. The railway will be replaced by the River Don after passing down steps and Conisbrough Castle will come into view on your right. Continue following the path and after 5-10 minutes you will reach a derelict building on the right, complete with a red brick chimney. 2. Ferry Farm Ferry Farm has traditionally been owned by the controller of the ferryboat that crossed the Don here. The first record of there being a ferryboat present was in 1319 when ferry was operated by a man known as Henry the ferryman.

The UDP contains both the strategic and the local planning policies necessary to guide development in Doncaster and is used by the council for development control purposes. At the time of writing this appraisal, the UDP is being reviewed and will ultimately be replaced with the emerging LDF. It is not possible however for the UDP or indeed the future LDF to address in detail all the issues raised by the many types of development.

The Spiral Stair Or Vice: Its Origins, Role and Meaning in Medieval Stone Castles. Thesis Submitted in Accordance with the Requ
The Spiral Stair or Vice: its origins, role and meaning in medieval stone castles. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Charles Ryder February 2011 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS For all their help and support, I wish to record my warmest thanks to the staff of the British Library, John Ryland‟s Library, the University of Liverpool and especially the staff of the University of Chester; to the owners of structures with spiral stairs who opened their doors to me, especially the de Vere family at Hedingham Castle and Mr Louis de Wett and Ms Gabrielle Drake at Much Wenlock Priory; to the custodians and managers of historical sites and in particular the lady who gave me a private tour of Charlemagne‟s Chapel, Aachen whose name I never knew and Mr N Fahy at Castle Rising; to a number of members of the Castle Studies Group, the M6 Group and the Liverpool Centre for Medieval and Renaissance Studies who gave good advice that assisted in my research both when crossing muddy fields in cold rain to visit castles, in warm lecture rooms and by various forms of mail; to people in Japan and China who were pleased to answer my questions and send photographs and articles; to Jean Mesqui, who encouraged my early research and corrected my French writing; almost finally, to my wife who, enduring much, visited almost as many castles as me and developed a excellent eye – far better than mine – for spotting castle features; however, above all I give thanks to my primary supervisor, Professor Peter Gaunt, who was my rock in the storm and from whom I learned many things, not always related to history and castles.

Introduction
Introduction Much is owed to the previous authors, Val Alliez and Carolyn Hammond. We thank them for laying the foundations upon which this new edition has been built. Thanks go, too, to those members of the Richard III Society who responded to the call for suggestions of sites not previously included. Unlike previous editions, the country has been divided into regions, the divisions being taken from the pattern set out by the National Trust. This explains why Hertfordshire is included in the East of England. The web edition has been designed to be a flexible tool which can be updated as necessary. We hope that this guide will enable members and visitors alike to visit and enjoy places that are associated with Richard III and the people he knew. Guidelines This edition of Ricardian Britain was designed for web and Wi-Fi devices such as smart phones or mp3 players with Wi-Fi capabilities. Some of the features include: • Addresses with postcodes, and telephone numbers • Website addresses • e-mail addresses When available, specific postcodes are included to access maps and directions via GPS/SatNav devices. Several organisations have provided APPs. Users are directed to each website for opening hours, entrance fees, and additional information such as photographs, directions, restaurants, accessibility, parking, etc. about the site. Please note that some sites are closed during certain months of the year. Many are open only between Easter and September/October. The visiting of churches and other religious institutions is subject to the timing of services. Some sites may be closed for special events such as weddings, etc.
