  • EDAS Journal Vol 4
    DORSET HISTORY ESSAYS, REPORTS, & TRANSCRIPTIONS Edited by John W. Day EDAS Journal Vol 4 Date: 12th September 2015 EAST DORSET ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY Preface This collection of historical essays has been composed by members of the East Dorset Antiquarian Society as part of the 30th anniversary falling March 2013. The society evolved from the Wimborne Educational Association lectures on archaeology by David Johnston and Tim Schadla-Hall and Dorset History by Jude James. Of paramount importance in the inception and growth was Norman Field and Martin Green. Regrettably several founder members have passed away, but Tim still gives us occasional lectures and Martin remains a much valued member. The original 12 member committee were Martin Green, Haydn Everall, Ann Sims, Teresa Hall, Denise Bicheno, Ruth Clipson (who organised a week on Hadrians wall, our first field trip) Sylvia Church, now Mrs Frith (who with Roy played an important part in our excavation of the “magic well” at Hazel Bryant) and Della, membership secretary and myself. Members included Henry Cole, Len and Pam Norris who remain active with us today, and Allan Cosgrove whom we still see about Wimborne and Ian Hewitt now a lecturer at Bournemouth University, who occasionally gives us a talk. Popular was Phil Cole who wrote the most fascinating poems. Currently we are advantaged by Lilian Ladle, Graham Adams, Bryan Popple, Helen Brickell, Peter Walker, Andrew Morgan, Brian Maynard, Dave Stewart, Stephen Smith and Karen Winsor, helping to establish a strong committee in a society of nearly 200 enthused members. Judicious administration ensures a mixture of long standing committee members and new faces, thus bringing fresh blood to a stable group.

  • The Sixpenny Handley Swing Riot of 1830 and My Family History
    The Sixpenny Handley Swing Riot of 1830 and my family history By Mark Wareham Updated 29th November 2010 This ‘riot’ was one of a number of similar uprisings of agricultural labourers which took place in late 1830 and which were attributed to ‘Captain Swing’. The riots were a response to extreme poverty and to a lack of work in rural areas and they took hold particularly in southern counties of the UK like Dorset. The Handley Riot A contemporary etching of a swing riot From “Wiltshire Machine Breakers, Volume 1, by Jill Chambers, 1993” page 72 Thursday 25th November 1830 “A mob of 50 to 60 people gathered in the parish of Handley and from there went to the parish of Berwick St John. Mr Woolridge, occupier of the farm, had taken down his thrashing machine before the mob arrived …. When the mob arrived they demanded victuals and then went out to the field where they used sledge hammers and large sticks to destroy iron parts of the thrashing machine. From Bridmore Farm they moved to Tollard Royal and a farm of Lord Rivers where they destroyed the iron parts of a thrashing machine, a winnowing machine and chaff cutting machine. From there they went to the farm of Charles Lane, Tollard Royal. When Mr Lane remonstrated one, Joseph Chubb, came up to him with a large piece of iron and threatened to beat out his brains if he interfered with them further. The mob then broke Mr Lane’s thrashing machine and chaff cutting machine and burnt the pieces.
