DAVID HOLMES A thesis submitted to the University of Huddersfield in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2010 Abstract This thesis examines the emergence of the Irish Catholic diaspora in the industrial diocese of the West Riding of Yorkshire, and the evolution of the West Riding‟s forgotten Irish rugby clubs, 1860-c 1920. In addition to considering the contributions of Irish immigrants in the history of rugby football this thesis explores their religious, nationalist, social and cultural experiences, set within the wider history of Irish immigration in England. The history and establishment of parochial and non-parochial Irish Catholic rugby clubs in the West Riding can be traced back to the 1870s. Diasporic Irish Catholics settled in the county have always been part of rugby football since its inception, albeit, at a much slower and punctuated rate than that observed among English Protestant communities. The foremost aim of this thesis is to scrutinise the rugby antecedents of Irish Catholics domiciled in the manufacturing centres of the West Riding during the Victorian and early Edwardian periods. In the late nineteenth century, towns and cities across the West Riding had become the great citadels of rugby football. Rugby attracted much participation, giving rise to the Catholic Church establishing its own internalised parochial rugby clubs, which were intended to improve the spiritual and physical well-being of its poor Irish adherents. This thesis, moreover, examines the establishment of non-parochial Irish rugby clubs which acted as sporting auxiliaries to Irish nationalist clubs. Finally, this thesis investigates those opportunities which allowed some working-class Irish Catholics to participate in games of rugby league outside of their own ethno-religious clubs for some of the county‟s senior professional rugby clubs. Since the main objective of Irish nationalist organisations was to offer financial support and political muscle to the Irish Parliamentary Party, this thesis will argue that the establishment of non- parochial nationalist Irish rugby clubs initially centred on the sport‟s by products‟, „gate- money‟. 2 Copy Right Statement i.

The term „rugby football‟ is used here to represent both rugby union football and rugby league football, except where it is inappropriate. The aim of this research is to determine the historical relationship between Irish Catholic diasporic identities and rugby football in the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras, although occasional reference will be made of that other important nineteenth-century immigrant group, the Eastern European Jews. In addition to considering the contributions of Irish immigrants in the history of rugby football, this thesis shall also examine their religious, nationalist, social and cultural experiences, set within the wider history of Irish immigration in England. In particularly, it shall examine the role of the Roman Catholic Church, which played a predominant part in the process whereby Irish people assimilated into their new surroundings. In their new urban communities the Irish sought to maintain their Irish culture with the Catholic Church being central to many community activities. It established a means of contact between its Irish adherents and helped to strengthen many of their religious convictions, to enlighten them in the midst of the difficulties presented by the question of the day. This will lead naturally enough into the core area of the research, which will argue that diasporic Irish Catholics settled in the county have always been part of rugby football since its inception, albeit, at a much slower and punctuated rate than that observed among English Protestant communities. First, it will argue that rugby attracted much participation among the working-class Irish Catholics, giving rise to the Catholic Church establishing its own, internalised, parochial rugby clubs, which were intended to improve the spiritual and physical well-being of its poor Irish adherents.

  • 'The Freedom of Election'
    'THE FREEDOM OF ELECTION' THE COMPANY OF CUTLERS IN HALLAMSHIRE AND THE GROWTH OF RADICALISM IN SHEFFIELD 1784-1792 JULIE MACDONALD VOLUME TWO Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History, The U ni versity of Sheffield August, 2005 203 CHAPTER FIVE Sheffield in 1790 Introduction For much of the eighteenth century, Sheffield was a relatively harmonious place. Trade, generally, was booming and work was plentiful. There had been no significant riots since 1756, there was very little serious crime and its inhabitants were, in the main, tolerant of one another despite their religious differences.365 But, after six years of acrimony within the town's principal trade, the situation had changed dramatically. Divisions had begun to appear at all levels of society, divisions that, in some cases, would continue well into the twentieth century. And with these divisions had come mistrust anger and fear. Even Joseph Gales had suffered: on May 16th 1789, for example, he noted that 'the journeymen were highly enraged' with him for publishing the letter from 'A Votary of Freedom' (see previous chapter), so much so that some workshops had cancelled their order for the Register. He reassured himself, and his readers, that his publication of the reply from' A Friend to Freedom' would not only see the order reinstated but also that the journeymen would have his paper 'framed and glazed' .366 365 The riots in 1756 had been caused by food shortages and widespread anger about 'stuffing', the local name for payment in kind (see chapter one). The cutlery trades had been badly affected by the outbreak of the Seyen Years War and the subsequent loss access to the European markets.

  • St Peter and St Paul Roman Catholic School, Leyburn, North Yorkshire
    St Peter and St Paul Roman Catholic School, Leyburn, North Yorkshire. The Early Years 1836-1872 As well as having one of the oldest churches in the Diocese of Middlesbrough, Leybum also has one of the oldest schools. The first school of St Peter and St Paul was built along with the church and presbytery in 1835/6 and remained open until about 1872. After being closed for 23 years the existing school was enlarged and upgraded to conform with the then current requirements and opened again in 1895. It has continued to provide Catholic education for children in the area until the present day. Although log books are extant for this second period, unfortunately none have survived or were kept prior to 1895. In the early part of the 19th Century there was no organised educational provision for the children of the working class. Dame schools provided an education of sorts for younger children and older children went to Common Day Schools (run by a man), or in some areas, to Factory Schools. Sunday Schools and Charity Schools offered free education to others but on a very patchy basis. Hence in 1810 the non-conformist churches set up the British and Foreign Schools Society with the aim of building more schools and in 1811 The National Society established by the Church of England followed suit in establishing these voluntary schools. Catholic parish schools- 'day' or 'poor' schools were usually established by the joint efforts of the religious orders, the clergy and the laity. Establishment and building of the School The Leybum Catholic School appears to be unusual in that, other than a very small endowment from the Riddells, both its establishment and support seem to have been funded by the people of the area.
