Ledbury to Gloucester Copy Better
Ledbury to Gloucester Railway Ledbury to Gloucester by rail Taken from David Postle’s book of the same name and is seen through the eyes of the Driver and Fireman of the last passenger train on the branch on the 11th July 1959. The driver was Jack Folley and the fireman Jim Kavanagh. Jim checked the fire again and looked at the pressure gauge, and decided that he ought to put a little more coal on the fire. He picked up his shovel, opened the fire hole doors and placed half a dozen shovelfuls round the firebox, turned on the injector again because he knew that shortly he would be stopping at Barber’s Bridge with a minute or two in hand to gain any pressure that might be lost by putting more water into the boiler. He picked up a little hand brush and swept the coal dust from the floorboards of the cab. ‘Even when the railway was opened, no attempt was made to advertise the new service. It wasn’t until the end of August that the G.W.R. advertised a summer excursion from Cheltenham to Malvern via Newest. The line was obviously considered important by some because, in the sales particulars of property on the market at that time, the proximity to the new railway was very often stressed’ ‘Did the railway look as though it might fulfil its potential’, asked Jim. ‘Early newspaper reports were very optimistic. The first five weeks saw over 2000 passengers booked at Newest and just over half that at Dymock.’ ‘Talking in the early days,’ said Jim, ‘the guard told me at Ledbury that we have an elderly gentleman on board who travelled on the first train, and here he is, on the last one over the Branch.’ ‘Is that right? I suppose it just goes to show how short-lived this Branch has been.’ ‘Whilst on the subject of people, did I tell you about Dick Nash?’ asked Jack. -
The Battle for May Hill’ by Marion Shoard
‘The Battle for May Hill’ by Marion Shoard Published in the Newsletter of the Friends of the Dymock Poets, Issue no. 59, Summer 2013 May Hill is probably the most important geographical feature for the Friends of the Dymock Poets. The poets derived their inspiration from the countryside around them. As they walked and talked together along the field paths and lanes, they constantly got their bearings from that unmistakable, reassuring upturned saucer with its fuzz of pines atop – May Hill. As Edward Thomas recalled in his essay about the Dymock country, ‘This England’: ‘Again and again we saw, instead of solid things, dark or bright, never more than half a mile off, the complete broad dome of a high hill six miles distant, a beautiful hill itself, but especially seen thus, always unexpectedly, through gaps in this narrow country, as through a window’. Several FDP walks have taken in May Hill, where members have read aloud ‘Words’, the delightful poem which Edward Thomas composed from its slopes while on a cycling trip with John Haines, the Gloucester solicitor and amateur botanist who joined the poets on many of their walks-talks. In view of this connection, when FDP member Alexander Maltby, who lives on May Hill, contacted the FDP about a plan to build a five-bedroom mansion on an isolated site on its slopes, the committee was concerned. Alas, we do not have the capacity to check every planning application, so we can deal only with selected cases. Barbara Davis and I were the first committee members to go and visit the site, and this is the submission which Jeff Cooper, our chair, sent in on behalf of the FDP to Forest of Dean District Council, which will grant or withhold planning consent. -

Excavations at Stallards Place, Dymock, 2007
Trans. Bristol & Gloucestershire Archaeological Society 131 (2013), 93–102 Excavations at Stallards Place, Dymock, 2007 by ANDREW SIMMONDS with contributions by PAUL BLINKHORN, PAUL BOOTH, WENDY SMITH and LENA STRID INTRODUCTION During April and May 2007 Oxford Archaeology conducted an excavation at Stallards Place, Dymock, at OS Nat. Grid SO 6986 3133 (Fig. 1). This work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting on behalf of Ten Estates and Developments, in advance of construction of new housing on land that was formerly the grounds of Stallards Place. The site comprised part of the gardens surrounding the house and a former orchard to the south. The excavation was undertaken in accordance with a condition attached to the planning permission for the development by Forest of Dean District Council. The modern village of Dymock is believed to stand at the junction of two Roman roads, where a road leading from the fort and settlement at Stretton Grandison (Herefs.) to a possible crossing of the River Severn south of Tewkesbury is joined by a possible road extending southward toward Gloucester (Catchpole 2007b, 133–4). The presence of a Roman settlement at Dymock has been recognised since at least the start of the 20th century as a result of the discovery of chance finds and structural remains throughout the village (Gethyn-Jones 1966; Leech 1981, 31) and, more recently, by more formal excavations at Winserdine and Rose Cottage (Taverner 2001), the Rectory (Simmonds 2007) and the Sewage Treatment Works (Catchpole 2007a). The settlement has been tentatively identified with the settlement ofMacatonium , which is recorded in the Ravenna Cosmography as lying on the route between Gloucester and Kenchester (Herefs.) (Gethyn-Jones 1966, 11; Rivet and Smith 1979, 361–2, 404–5). -
The Establishment of the Head Port of Gloucester, 1565-1584 (Mphil
The Establishment of the Head Port of Gloucester, 1565-1584 Alexander Higgins A thesis submitted to the University of Bristol in accordance with the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts, Department of Historical Studies, November 2012. 24,884 words. Abstract After a fifteen-year campaign, Gloucester became an independent head port in 1580. This effectively ended Bristol’s long-standing jurisdiction over the Gloucestershire reaches of the River Severn and resulted in the loss of the greater part of Bristol’s historic port. This dissertation explores Bristol’s objections to this change and examines the prosecution of their complaints through the equity side of the Exchequer court. Primarily, this study focuses upon two commissions created by the Crown to review the case. The interrogatories and depositions produced by these commissions are used to explore the nature of this dispute, the motivation behind Bristol’s objections and why Gloucester ultimately retained its head port status. The first chapter focuses upon the practical implementation of the commissions. Rather than relying upon the legal records alone, this study uses letters, accounts and reports produced by the two parties to explore the workings of a commission. This approach reveals the extent of Bristol and Gloucester’s attempts to manipulate proceedings to their own advantage. These findings have significant implications on the impartiality of Tudor legal process and the reliability of the Exchequer records. The second chapter examines the findings of the two commissions to assess the nature and strength of Bristol’s arguments. It is shown that many of these arguments were unsubstantiated. -
