Doug Conkey, President 6 | 2016 CLAY COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE DIRECTORY CLAYCHAMBER.COM | 7 Letter from... The Clay County Chamber of Commerce Chairman Many of you reading this are aware that the Clay Chamber of Commerce proudly serves our local businesses and non-profit organizations, providing opportunities for business growth, customer acquisition and community partnerships. You may even know that we have more than 900 dues- paying members – from sole proprietors to Fortune 500 companies. But what many outside the Clay Chamber don’t know is that the Chamber is strategically driven by 16 volunteers who serve on our board – business people representing various industries, sizes and types of organizations who care deeply about the future of our local economy and community. We work hard to support our members, in particular our small and new businesses, providing resources, education, and networking opportunities to help them succeed. And thanks to the generous investment of our largest member businesses we are able to create innovative programs and hold important community events to help our small businesses flourish. In any given week on the Chamber calendar, you may see a dozen or more networking events, training classes and community events promoting the business members and their products and services. But the Chamber does so much more. To provide a sense of the innovation taking place right here in your backyard, let me share with you a few initiatives taking place this year ahead. Career Mentoring: A terrific initiative beginning this year is the high school career day and mentoring program. Working closely with Clay County Schools, 1,200 students will have the opportunity to not only learn about more than 40 local companies and small businesses, but sign up for internships, mentoring and shadowing of the most established and growth-oriented organizations in the area. By doing so, we are able to help prepare these students for their careers, help them find local employment, and retain the impressive talent our stellar school system is developing right here in Clay County. Economic Development: The Clay Chamber collaborates with the County and Economic Development Council to attract new businesses and provide seamless entry into our community. This results in more jobs coming to Clay and helps improve the quality of life residents have by creating opportunities for employment, education, residency and recreation within the same geographic proximity. Business Advocacy: Ensuring our business community is well represented with local and state government is of great importance to the Chamber as well. Whether it is supporting legislation for greater access in our county (such as the First Coast Expressway) or regulations to make it easier for our businesses to be successful – the Chamber listens to its membership and works closely with our representatives to meet the needs of local business. As the old saying goes “It takes a village to raise a child.” This is what being a Clay County Chamber member means – we help one another and by doing so, our community prospers. As one of the many individuals and business representatives who have the privilege to help this great community of ours, I am personally excited to be serving as the Chairman of your Chamber Board and working together to build our local businesses and economy.

  • Great Chalfield, Wiltshire: Archaeology and History (Notes for Visitors, Prepared by the Royal Archaeological Institute, 2017)
    Great Chalfield, Wiltshire: archaeology and history (notes for visitors, prepared by the Royal Archaeological Institute, 2017) Great Chalfield manor belonged to a branch of the Percy family in the Middle Ages. One of them probably had the moat dug and the internal stone wall, of which a part survives, built, possibly in the thirteenth century. Its bastions have the remains of arrow-slits, unless those are later romanticizing features. The site would have been defensible, though without a strong tower could hardly have been regarded as a castle; the Percy house was a courtyard, with a tower attached to one range, but its diameter is too small for that to have been much more than a staircase turret. The house went through various owners and other vicissitudes, but was rescued by a Wiltshire business-man, who employed W. H. Brakspear as architect (see Paul Jack’s contribution, below). It is now owned by the National Trust (plan reproduced with permission of NT Images). Security rather than impregnability is likely to have been the intention of Thomas Tropenell, the builder of most of the surviving house. He was a local man and a lawyer who acquired the estate seemingly on a lease, and subsequently and after much litigation by purchase, during the late 1420s/60s (Driver 2000). In the house is the large and impressive cartulary that documents these struggles, which are typical of the inter- and intra-family feuding that characterized the fifteenth century, even below the level of royal battles and hollow crowns. Tropenell was adviser to Lord Hungerford, the dominant local baron; he was not therefore going to build anything that looked like a castle to challenge nearby Farleigh.

  • The Construction of Northumberland House and the Patronage of Its Original Builder, Lord Henry Howard, 1603–14
    The Antiquaries Journal, 90, 2010,pp1 of 60 r The Society of Antiquaries of London, 2010 doi:10.1017⁄s0003581510000016 THE CONSTRUCTION OF NORTHUMBERLAND HOUSE AND THE PATRONAGE OF ITS ORIGINAL BUILDER, LORD HENRY HOWARD, 1603–14 Manolo Guerci Manolo Guerci, Kent School of Architecture, University of Kent, Marlowe Building, Canterbury CT27NR, UK. E-mail: [email protected] This paper affords a complete analysis of the construction of the original Northampton (later Northumberland) House in the Strand (demolished in 1874), which has never been fully investigated. It begins with an examination of the little-known architectural patronage of its builder, Lord Henry Howard, 1st Earl of Northampton from 1603, one of the most interesting figures of the early Stuart era. With reference to the building of the contemporary Salisbury House by Sir Robert Cecil, 1st Earl of Salisbury, the only other Strand palace to be built in the early seventeenth century, textual and visual evidence are closely investigated. A rediscovered eleva- tional drawing of the original front of Northampton House is also discussed. By associating it with other sources, such as the first inventory of the house (transcribed in the Appendix), the inside and outside of Northampton House as Henry Howard left it in 1614 are re-configured for the first time. Northumberland House was the greatest representative of the old aristocratic mansions on the Strand – the almost uninterrupted series of waterfront palaces and large gardens that stretched from Westminster to the City of London, the political and economic centres of the country, respectively. Northumberland House was also the only one to have survived into the age of photography.

  • THE TWELFTH-CENTURY AISLED HALL of LEICESTER CASTLE: a RE-ASSESSMENT Nick Hill
    THE TWELFTH-CENTURY AISLED HALL OF LEICESTER CASTLE: A RE-ASSESSMENT Nick Hill A recent programme of research, accompanied by archaeological excavation and dendrochronology, has confirmed the Great Hall of Leicester Castle as the earliest known standing aisled hall in Britain, now tree-ring dated to 1137–62. It was built for Earl Robert II of Leicester, one of the greatest magnates of the period, probably in the 1150s when he was at the height of his powers. The form of the main twelfth-century roof structure, with timber arcades and a former clerestorey, was established in previous work of the 1980s. The current study has added detailed analysis of the external masonry walls, including the uncovering of two service doorways. Archaeological excavation established that the aisle posts were originally earth-fast. Drawing on earlier documentary study, a revised reconstruction of the original building form is proposed, relating the upper roof structure to the original masonry walls, aisles and floor level. Evidence indicates that a small service building was attached to the north gable, with a detached chamber block located to the south. The relationship of Leicester to other early aisled halls is also explored. INTRODUCTION The Great Hall of Leicester Castle is a remarkable survivor. Of the rest of the extensive castle buildings, which reached their heyday under John of Gaunt in the late fourteenth century, little remains except for parts of two gatehouses. The Great Hall itself underwent major alteration in the early sixteenth century, was entirely re- fronted in the 1690s, subdivided internally in 1821, and further altered and extended in 1858.

  • What Part Did Decorative Plasterwork Play in the Transformation of the Great House Before 1660?
    What part did decorative plasterwork play in the transformation of the Great House before 1660? Annika McQueen June 2018 Decorative plasterwork has become one element that characterises the image of the Great House in England. Wide-ranging social and economic change accompanied the end of the medieval period and the arrival of the Tudor dynasty in 1485. The domestic stability England enjoyed during the Elizabethan period was cemented by the end of hostilities with Spain when James I ascended the throne1. As a result, substantial change occurred in the form, function and internal decorative design of the Great House. As will be exemplified in this essay, plasterwork continued to be important as a decorative material in the Caroline period and reflected changing fashions in architectural and artistic design. In this essay I will argue that this change was more of an evolution than a transformation, as it occurred slowly over a long period of time. In 1501 Henry VII granted a charter to the Worshipful Company of Plasterers of London, giving the trade formal recognition and attesting to its rising popularity as a material.2 As Beard has pointed out, Plaster and Stucco are distinct entities; the best plaster being derived from burning gypsum and the more usual kind of English plasterwork being comprised of slaked lime, sand and a binding agent such as hair.3 Stucco is derived from the addition of marble dust to slaked lime, rather than sand or hair.4 Gapper comments that the term ‘pargetting’ was used in the sixteenth century to mean internal as well as external plastering; alongside the term ‘plaster’.5 For the purposes of this essay, ‘plasterwork’ will be taken to include both plaster and stucco work and will focus on the role internal decorative plasterwork played in the evolution of the Great House.

    War Halls: Royal Houses from the Saxons to the Hundred Years' War Transcript Date: Wednesday, 12 March 2014 - 6:00PM Location: Museum of London 12 March 2014 War Halls: Royal Houses from the Saxons to the Hundred Years War Simon Thurley Visiting Gresham Professor of the Built Environment Just before I start I want to put up this table that reminds us who was on the throne when. I’ll be talking about the Saxons and stopping at the death of King Edward III. Tonight we will see how by the death of King Edward III England’s royal palaces had changed from being a conglomeration of disparate buildings focussed round a great hall, to well-organised carefully planned structures which became machines for rule, houses of power, buildings that were perfectly honed for medieval kingship. I will also try and suggest why this happened and how this happened. And to understand this we need to understand a little about how medieval kings lived and ruled and as an introduction think a little about what constituted a palace. To help I want to divide royal residences as they were used after the Norman Conquest into three categories. The manor, the castle and the palace. It is always dangerous trying to categorise things in ways in which they were, perhaps, not seen at the time. But I think it helps to make sense of an otherwise confusing story. Let’s start with the palace because that is easy. The word palace derives from the residence of the Roman emperors on the Palatine Hill in Rome.

  • Arex Groaned, ‘Oh No.’ Gunthar Started, Snatching Back His Hand As If the Ring Had Shocked Him
    It is the 41st millennium. For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the master of mankind by the will of the gods, and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day, so that he may never truly die. Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor’s will. Vast armies give battle in His name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the Imperial Guard and countless Planetary Defence Forces, the ever-vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants - and worse. To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruellest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war.

  • Medieval Hambledon Manor: Chambers for Bishops and Their Stewards
    Proc. Hampshire Field Club Archaeol. Soc. 59, 2004, 180-195 (Hampshire Studies 2004) MEDIEVAL HAMBLEDON MANOR: CHAMBERS FOR BISHOPS AND THEIR STEWARDS By EDWARD ROBERTS ABSTRACT Of the many grand residences that once belonged to the medieval bishops of Winchester, most have been completely destroyed or are, at best, ruinous. Only a very few retain upstanding buildings, still roofed and occupied. Of these, a stone-built range at Manor Farm, Hambledon is probably the least published and thus the least well known. Its form and function are discussed, drawing on tlie incomparable records of the bishopric of Winchester and recently secured tree-ring dates. Was it intended to accommodate the bishop, his steward or the farmer and did its form and function change over time? And what was the significance of the dis­ tinction betzveen the bishop's chamber and the great chamber, a distinction recorded at several episcopal houses? There is also a brief discussion of the entire medieval manorial complex at Hambledon and its place within the network of medieval episcopal residences in the south of England. INTRODUCTION Hambledon village lies between rolling chalk downs some ten miles north of Portsmouth. The Manor Farm stands beside West Street and near 100 200 300 ft. the village centre (Fig. 1). Today it is a commer­ —«— =F cial farm, with nothing to distinguish it from 50 100 many others in the area except for some unusually metres ancient buildings. In the Middle Ages, however, these buildings were part of a country residence of Fig. 1 Hambledon Manor Farm and the village centre, based bishops of Winchester and the centre of a large on the Hambledon tithe map 1838-9 (HRO 46M69/PD2/1- manorial estate of over 9,000 acres (VCH Hants 2).
