In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter.

Marches LEP has been allocated £14m from the GBF for a wide-ranging package of projects that will deliver a much-needed boost to the local economy. In Marches LEP, the funded projects are expected to deliver new zero carbon housing and unlock housing at key sites in Herefordshire and Telford & Wrekin; support enabling works for redevelopment of Pride Hill shopping centre in Shrewsbury; accelerate building work for New Model Institute for Engineering and Technology in Hereford; and provide new investment in the streetscape of Hereford, supporting active travel and increasing air quality. These projects align with the LEP’s key priorities and will support the LEP area’s recovery from Covid-19.

  • HEREFORDSHIRE Is Repeatedly Referred to in Domesday As Lying In
    ABO BLOOD GROUPS, HUMAN HISTORY AND LANGUAGE IN HEREFORDSHIRE WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE LOW B FREQUENCY IN EUROPE I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Aberystwyth Received6.x.64 1.INTRODUCTION HEREFORDSHIREis repeatedly referred to in Domesday as lying in Wales and the county is regularly described as such in the Pipe Rolls until 1249-50. Of the two dozen or so charters granted to the county town, a number are addressed to the citizens of Hereford in Wales. That fluency in Welsh was until 1855oneof the qualifications for the post of clerk to the Hereford city magistrates indicated the county's bilingual nature. The object of the present investigation is to ascertain whether there is any significant genetic difference between the part of Herefordshire conquered by the Anglo-Saxons and the area called "Welsh Hereford- shire ".Assome moorland parishes have lost 50 per cent. of their inhabitants during the last 50 years, the need to carry out the survey is the more pressing. 2.THE HUMAN HISTORY OF HEREFORDSHIRE Pre-Norman Conquest Offa'sgeneral line of demarcation between England and Wales in the eighth century extending in Herefordshire from near Lyonshall to Bridge Sollars, about five miles upstream from Hereford, is inter- mittent in the well-wooded lowlands, being only found in the Saxon clearings. From this Fox (i) infers that the intervening forest with its dense thickets of thorn and bramble filling the space under the tree canopy was an impassable barrier. Downstream to Redbrook (Glos.) the river was probably the boundary but the ferry crossing from Beachley to Aust and the tidal navigational rights up the Wye were retained by the Welsh—facts which suggest that the Dyke was in the nature of an agreed frontier.

It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas1,2. The annual health cost to society of the impacts of particulate matter alone in the UK is estimated to be around £16 billion3. Air quality is generally good within Herefordshire, however, two areas have been identified as Air Quality Management Areas (AQMA’s) due to high levels of nitrogen dioxide (from vehicle emissions) exceeding national standards. These two areas are the A49 road corridor through Hereford City and the area of Bargates road junction in central Leominster. This annual status report considers all new monitoring data and assesses the data against the national Air Quality Objectives (AQO). It also considers any major changes in the County that may have an impact on air quality and reports on progress of measures to improve air quality.

The West Midlands region was allocated 53 constituencies under the initial and revised proposals, a reduction of six from the existing allocation. In formulating the initial and revised proposals the Commission decided to construct constituencies using the following sub­regions: Table 1A ­ Constituency allocation Sub­region Existing allocation Allocation under initial Allocation under revised proposals proposals Staffordshire (and 12 11 11 Stoke­on­Trent) Herefordshire, Shropshire 47 42 n/a (including Telford and Wrekin), Warwickshire, West Midlands, and Worcestershire Herefordshire, Shropshire n/a n/a 32 (including Telford and Wrekin), West Midlands (excluding Coventry and 1 Solihull), and Worcestershire Coventry and Warwickshire n/a n/a 8 Solihull n/a n/a 2 2. Under the initial proposals seven of the existing 59 constituencies were completely unchanged. The revised proposals retained six of the existing constituencies unchanged. Under the initial proposals there were four constituencies that crossed county boundaries. These were: one cross­county constituency between Worcestershire and Warwickshire (Evesham and South Warwickshire), one between Herefordshire and Shropshire (Ludlow and Leominster), one between Herefordshire and Worcestershire (Malvern and Ledbury), and one between West Midlands and Warwickshire (Shirley and Solihull South).

  • The Civil War of 1459 to 1461 in the the Welsh Marches: Part 2 the Campaign and Battle of Mortimer's Cross – St Blaise's Day, 3 February 1461 by Geoffrey Hodges
    The Civil War of 1459 to 1461 in the the Welsh Marches: Part 2 The Campaign and Battle of Mortimer's Cross – St Blaise's Day, 3 February 1461 by Geoffrey Hodges Recounting the bloodless battle of Ludford is relatively simple, as it is well documented. A large royal army was involved, with a fair amount of material resulting for official records and for the London chroniclers. The battle of Mortimer's Cross, however, was fought when all attention in the south-east of the kingdom was taken up by the advance of the Queen's ravaging hordes on London. The activities of Edward, Earl of March are wrapped in much obscurity; it is not at all clear what happened between the passing of the act of accord on 29 November 1460 (making the Duke of York heir to Henry VI), and the meeting between Edward and the Earl of Warwick in the Cotswolds on about 22 February 1461 -except, of course, the battle of Mortimer's Cross itself. One cannot be dogmatic about any link in this chain of events, but it is surely one of the most extraordinary stories in the annals of England and Wales, and well worth attempting to piece together. Activities of the Adversaries before the Battle What Edward's adversary, Jasper Tudor, was doing in the same period is no more certain, but it is fairly clear that, after the defeat and capture of Henry VI at Northampton on 10 July 1460, Queen Margaret fled from Coventry into Wales. Gregory says that she made first for Harlech, 'and there hens she remevyd fulle prevely unto the Lorde Jesper, Lorde and Erle of Penbroke, … ‘, who was probably at Pembroke Castle.1 Jasper seems to have grasped the strategic importance of Milford Haven as the only Welsh harbour equally accessible from France, Ireland and Scotland.2 It looks as though he and the queen (his sister-in-law and distant cousin) now planned the royalist response to the Yorkist victory; his duty would be to prepare and lead against the Yorkists in the middle Marches of Wales an expedition whose starting point would be Pembroke.
