  • The Iron Age Tom Moore
    The Iron Age Tom Moore INTRODUCfiON In the twenty years since Alan Saville's (1984) review of the Iron Age in Gloucestershire much has happened in Iron-Age archaeology, both in the region and beyond.1 Saville's paper marked an important point in Iron-Age studies in Gloucestershire and was matched by an increasing level of research both regionally and nationally. The mid 1980s saw a number of discussions of the Iron Age in the county, including those by Cunliffe (1984b) and Darvill (1987), whilst reviews were conducted for Avon (Burrow 1987) and Somerset (Cunliffe 1982). At the same time significant advances and developments in British Iron-Age studies as a whole had a direct impact on how the period was viewed in the region. Richard Hingley's (1984) examination of the Iron-Age landscapes of Oxfordshire suggested a division between more integrated unenclosed communities in the Upper Thames Valley and isolated enclosure communities on the Cotswold uplands, arguing for very different social systems in the two areas. In contrast, Barry Cunliffe' s model ( 1984a; 1991 ), based on his work at Danebury, Hampshire, suggested a hierarchical Iron-Age society centred on hillforts directly influencing how hillforts and social organisation in the Cotswolds have been understood (Darvill1987; Saville 1984). Together these studies have set the agenda for how the 1st millennium BC in the region is regarded and their influence can be felt in more recent syntheses (e.g. Clarke 1993). Since 1984, however, our perception of Iron-Age societies has been radically altered. In particular, the role of hillforts as central places at the top of a hierarchical settlement pattern has been substantially challenged (Hill 1996).

    News from around the Gloucestershire Ramblers Area GRNews February 2020 www.gloucestershireramblers.org.uk [email protected] Cotswold Way 50th Anniversary Sunday 17th May 2020 At midday, the Cotswolds Conservation Board and Cotswold Way Association will host an event at Chipping Campden to celebrate the launch of the Cotswold Way by Gloucestershire County Council during Footpath Week 1970. The Way was first mooted by Tony Drake of Gloucestershire Ramblers following the passing of the National Parks & Access to the Countryside Act of 1949 - prompted by the 1932 Kinder Scout Mass Trespass. A memorial to Tony is at Painswick. A bench to the other principal Cyril Trenfield (Cotswold Voluntary Wardens) is at Dyrham Park. Some of the original waymarks with a white spot are still to be found along the route. In 2014 Ramblers helped sponsor a significant ‘beginning & end’ marker stone outside the Market Hall at Chipping Campden. North Cotswold Ramblers will open with a morning walk on the Sunday up to Dover’s Hill. Other Groups are organising walks on the day and throughout the year. 2019 AGM Blockley Jubilee Hall 10:00 am on Saturday 7th December 2019 saw Ramblers from across the Area Diary Dates meet up for our Annual General Meeting. North Cotswold Group kindly hosted Winchcombe Walking Festival the event and Paul Rhodes a volunteer Ramblers Trustee spoke about the work Fri 15th – Sun 17th May 2020 of the organisation. We’re once again grateful to members who volunteered to including a walk along the take on committee roles as well as those who continued in post.

We plan to propose some modest amendments at the Annual General Meeting in March 2015, so that the Rules reflect better the role undertaken by GNS; among other things, we need to recruit new Committee members with new ideas and new outlooks; I would be very glad to hear from any member willing to put his or her name forward.

  • Excursion to the Forest of Dean, Wye Valley, and South Wales
    ,142 F. W. RUDLER ON THE SOUTH WALES COAL-FIELD. probability, that the change may have been brought about by II gradual rise of temperature towards the north-west, connected with the thickening of the strata in that direction. He assumes that originally the coal-seams in the north-west of the field were covered by a much greater thickness of beds than in the south-east, and being thus buried deeper beneath the surface they must have been exposed to a higher temperature, which would tend to induce more or less complete de-bituminization of the coal.
