All right reserved to Papcastle Local History Group Printed in Great Britain by PrintExpress Sneckyeat Road, Hensingham, Whitehaven, Cumbria 2 FOREWORD In spring 2007, Jack Sedgwick, a veterinary surgeon, who had spent his life since the late 1920’s in the village, gave a talk in the village hall. He presented an interesting insight into his early days and identified just five others who had lived all their lives in the village, from about the same time. This talk stimulated discussion into the fact that the history of the village had never been recorded. So from it a Papcastle Local History Group was formed with the intention of recovering as much as possible and with the expectation of publishing at least a small volume. By the autumn of 2008, it was clear that a major decision was needed - whether to publish what had been discovered so far or to hold off for some distant date when many more months, or possibly years of painstaking research might have been done. That would require regular trips to the Records Offices and not inconsiderable expense. This book is therefore a first edition, and one day may be superseded by a superior fresh and much extended edition.

Many members will remember the talk which Dr Michael Winstanley gave in May 2013 on Thomas Allom, and so I was pleased to receive an exposition of Allom’s illustrations of our local scenes.

It was stated by RES at the meeting in October that this would be the last meeting of The Tallantire Community Fund. Cumbria Community Foundation are very evasive as to the way forward as it would appear that all that was agreed in the past has now been scrapped. The date has now past for receipt of applications to become a member of the committee for the CCF Trustees re the distribution of the funds. We must hope that Mr McCambridge is chosen for the panel as we have no control over the selection. It was also noted that if the Windfarm is sold by RES then the community fund will cease. Have received a copy of an email from P Nicholson re suggestions for Community Benefit Fund and also a note from M Rollison re suggestions.

  • The Stones of Cumbria
    The Stones of Cumbria by Amy R. Miller A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Amy R. Miller 2012 The Stones of Cumbria Amy R. Miller Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto 2012 Abstract Gosforth, in the English province of Cumbria, is home to a group of tenth-century sculptures that are among the most intricate and best-preserved examples of Anglo-Scandinavian monumental stone carving. These sculptures are essential for appreciating the complex and rich culture that developed in the late first millennium in northern England. This thesis offers a detailed analysis of the Gosforth sculptural group through multiple facets of its construction, design, and location to gain a broader understanding of the role of public sculpture in the unsettled but dynamic regions of Viking England. The complexity of Anglo-Scandinavian sculpture is examined first through an archaeological and material reassessment that reveals the method of the monuments’ construction and further supports the attribution for most of the sculptures to a single artist, whose craftsmanship, composition, and style match works across northern England, several of which were previously unattributed to him. This corpus expands our understanding of at least one professional early medieval artist and enables us to refine the general timeline of sculptural production in England. This artist sculpted in support of a new Anglo-Scandinavian elite, who adopted the local practice of ornamenting carved crosses but consciously adapted the ii iconography to reflect and reaffirm their otherness. By referencing one another, the sculptures forged and reflected the complex process of mutual acculturation and competition among communities and served as fixed spatial and mental foci in the Viking Age settlement of northern England.
