  • Warre, F, Woodspring Priory, Part II, Vol 4
    108 PAPERS, ETC. 'IBnaiispring |Mari}. BY REV. F. WARRE. HE rise of the celebrated Thomas a' Becket, otherwise fl. St. Thomas of Canterbury, to almost unlimited power under King Henry II. ; his contest with that monarch on the subject of Papal jurisdiction and the rights of the church ; and his bloody murder at the very foot of the altar, in the year 1170; are historical facts known to everybody: and whether we consider him ac- cording to the bias of our religious and political opinions, a turbulent traitor, a patriotic assertor of the rights of the commons, a champion of the oppressed Saxon against his Norman tyrant, a hot-headed zealot, or a martyr to the Church of Christ, we can hardly deny him the credit of having been a sincere, honest, fearless, and single-minded man. But though these are facts generally known and now almost as generally admitted, there are perhaps, even among the present company, some who may not be aware that of the four fierce Barons who in consequence of a hasty speech of their King, perpetrated the atrocious murder of an Archbishop at the altar of his own cathedral, three at least, if not all, were west countrymen, and two undoubtedly residents in this county. Fitzurse, of Willi- ton ; Brito, of Sandford Bret ; Tracy, of Morthoe, near WOODSPRING PUIOIIY. 109 Ilfracombc, and Morville, who I believe was also a land- owner in Devonshire, were the actors in a tragedy which caused a general feeling of horror through the whole christian world. That powerful monarch, Henry II., proud Plantagcnet as he was, submitted to a degrading penance, having been publicly scourged before the high altar by the monks of Canterbury, while a' Becket, canonized by the Romish church, was even to the time of the Reformation held in veneration as a saint and martyr, and miracles were said to have been worked at his shrine, which the gifts of persons of all ranks and nations soon rendered one of the richest in Europe.

  • The Parish Church of St John the Baptist Weston-Super-Mare
    The Parish Church of St John the Baptist Weston-super -Mare John Crockford -Hawley 1 A Grade 2 Listed Building within the Great Weston Conservation Area 2 THE ANCIENT PARISH he story of St John’s Parish Church stretches back further than today’s building, T much further than the current sea-side town and even further than recorded history itself. In 1226 Bishop Jocelin ordered ‘of the Rector of Weston 100 lb of wax’ to be sent annually to Wells Cathedral and in 1292 the church was valued at ten marks. These are the earliest known references to Weston and so it follows there must have been a church here before the 13th century. Though Weston is not specifically recorded in Domesday Book it was more than likely a tiny settlement at the coastal end of Ashcombe Manor (which was in the great book). Being coastal afforded opportunities for villagers to take produce from the sea but in 1353 Bishop Ralph threw a tantrum accusing Weston’s ‘sons of iniquity’ of stealing ‘wreckage of the sea’ which belonged to himself. History does not record whether his over-the-top threat of excommunication worked. The first rector recorded by name was Guido de Schevyngdon in 1277 and thereafter we have a rather hit-and-miss recorded list. John Power lasted one year - but that was 1348 when Black Death made its appearance in Somerset. The bishop ordered processions and Stations of the Cross to encourage repentance and delivery from the scourge, little realising pestilence has no Almighty deliverer. Terrified Weston villagers would have wandered to the churchyard for burial after burial as half the population succumbed.

    YCCCART 2020/Y8 Observations on wall repairs at Woodspring Priory, Kewstoke, North Somerset YATTON, CONGRESBURY, CLAVERHAM AND CLEEVE ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH TEAM (YCCCART) General Editor: Vince Russett Collapsed section of wall on east side of cloister, Woodspring Priory Kewstoke, Watching brief, Woodspring Priory, 2020, Y8., v. 1 1 Page Contents 3 Abstract Acknowledgements Introduction 4 Site location Land use and geology 6 Historical & archaeological context Survey objectives Methodology 7 The repairs 21 Recommendations References Kewstoke, Watching brief, Woodspring Priory, 2020, Y8., v. 1 2 Abstract Two sections of walls within the monastic area of Woodspring Priory had been giving serious concern on structural grounds before 2020. The torrential rains and flooding of 2019/2020 brought further concern, and so in September 2020, sections of wall were repaired or demolished and rebuilt. Structural analysis shows that the wall in the cloister is almost certainly early postmedieval, while the repaired corner inside the main gatehouse included an eroded 16th century fireplace fragment as a quoin near the base of the structure. Acknowledgements This watching brief was carried out as a condition of Scheduled Monument Consent for the repair of the walls at Woodspring. The watching brief was carried out in September 2020 for the landowners, the Landmark Trust. We would like to thank Orchard Stonemasons for their helpful co-operation, Mel Barge at Historic England for making a decision within minutes about the fireplace fragment, and local tenant, the Toogood Partnership.

    YCCCART 2021/Y1 Woodspring Priory geophysical survey briefing note 2 YATTON, CONGRESBURY, CLAVERHAM AND CLEEVE ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH TEAM (YCCCART) General Editor: Vince Russett Initial geophysical survey results September 2020 1 Kewstoke, Briefing note 2, Woodspring Priory, 2021, Y1, v.1 Page Contents 3 Abstract Acknowledgements Introduction 4 Site location Land use and geology Historical & archaeological context Survey objectives 5 Methodology 6 Results 2 Kewstoke, Briefing note 2, Woodspring Priory, 2021, Y1, v.1 Abstract A licence for geophysical survey at this site was granted to run from September 2020- January 2021. Another very wet autumn and winter rendered part of the site underwater for months. The lockdowns from the coronavirus pandemic prevented work for late 2020 and January-February 2021. This means there was no chance that the intended works could be finished before the licence for the works expired, hence this (second) briefing note. Acknowledgements A Heritage Lottery Grant enabled the purchase, by YCCCART, of a Geoscan RM 15 resistivity meter. This survey would also not have been carried out without the willing permission of the landowner, Landmark Trust, the licensing of the work by Historic England, and the kind co-operation of the tenants of the site, the Toogood Partnership. The authors are grateful for the hard work by the members of YCCCART in performing the surveys and Vince Russett for editing. I (VR) would also like to thank Chris Short for his prompt downloading and processing of all our geophysical surveys, and we are very grateful for his work.

Any military intervention by a foreign power which interrupted the trade of the internationally important port of Bristol was to be avoided at all costs. The international situation seemed to make an invasion possible. This 'view from the sea' recorded coastal defences and seamarks between Portishead and Porlock Weir, but whether this was recording existing sites, or planning for creating them, is not clear from context. It is firmly suggested that they were never built.

    WORLE HISTORY SOCIETY 1939 to 1945 Diary of Worle in World War II Day to day factual journal © Raye Green 2013 www.worlehistorysociety.net This is a day to day diary of everything I have been able to discover about events in Worle from 1939 to VJ Day, against the background of the second World War. It is designed to be added to by anyone who has more information and I hope it will form the skeleton for 2 books: Worle at War, The Home Front (1939 to 1941) and Worle at War, In Pursuit of Peace. (1942 to 1945) Research for this diary has come from as many sources as I could gain access to. Events in Worle are set against a national and international backdrop. Of course, this will never really be complete, each time we think we have come to the end, something new emerges. The two local newspapers in print at the time provide a very valuable backdrop to events and feelings. Each paper has its own strengths and weaknesses. The Gazette uses a relaxed style and pictures, whereas the Mercury is more serious and carries greater detail. They complement each other. As the war goes on, paper and staff shortages occasionally prevents publication. Official records, kept at the Somerset Records Office in Taunton have been used to check facts and to add new information. The minutes of Worle Cricket Club, provided by Johnnie Tucker and the Brownies Log Book, loaned by Nora Jefferies have added a focussed perspective. Parish records and minutes of meetings of Parochial Church council members have also been used.
