  • Dedicattons of Tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©Ometsetsftire. “L
    DeDicattons of tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©ometsetsftire. BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A HE late Mr. W illiam Long contributed to the seventeenth “L volume of the Proceedings in 1871 a classified list of the Church Dedications given by Ecton in his Thesaurus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum, 1742. As Editor of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Kalendar my attention has been frequently drawn, from my own knowledge as well as by numerous correspon- dents, to the many errors and gaps in that list. It became plainly necessary to go behind the Thesaurus to the original sources of information. And here I may be allowed to repro- duce what I have already stated in the preface to the Kalendar for 1905. It should be clearly understood that there is no authoritative list in existence. Among the Public Becords are two works known as Pope Nicholas’ Taxatio of 1291, and the Valor Ec- clesiasticus of 27 Henry VIII (1536), containing the names of all parishes in England and Wales. These were primarily drawn up to ascertain the value of the benefices, and only in- cidentally, as in the case of towms with many churches, are the dedications added. The latter work, to which the title of V^ahr Ecclesiasticus or Liber Regis is generally given, was first printed in 1711 by J ohn Ecton. His preface contains a very interesting account of the early work of the Queen Anne’s Bounty Fund, of which he was Receiver, and of the serious state of affairs in the large towns which led to its foundation.

  • 1911 CENSUS for HAMBRIDGE/WESTPORT VILLAGES
    1911 CENSUS for HAMBRIDGE/WESTPORT VILLAGES: Langport Dist 307-2 Enum Dist 8 The Enumerator began his walk through the village at Underhill and visited 132 houses (schedules), Few houses had postal names like today.

The Male Workforce was 178, of whom 83 were employed on the 9 farms - 50 labourers, 13 horsemen, 5 cowmen, 2 shepherds etc). Hambridge Mills and Brewery (now Chalon Furniture) was in Curry Rivel parish but employed 5 millers/maltsters; 5 carters and 7 other men from Hambridge. There were also 9 carpenters, 3 blacksmiths, 10 gardeners, 4 withy growers and 6 basketmakers. There were 3 pubs, a Post Office, Grocer & Draper, and Fruit Dealer.

  • Barton St David Walks
    GOOD WALKING ! Barton St David has some very pleasant and interesting walks. The following list will, I hope, encourage you all to put on your boots and realise the benefits of fresh air and gentle exercise. There are ten walks ranging from 2 miles to 8 miles. The distances are accurate but the timings are approximate and depend on your personal pace. Most people can manage a steady pace of 2 miles per hour. The longer walks take you out of Barton parish and walk 7 starts at Butleigh. Water and mud-proof boots are recommended, as most walks are off-road. You will be mindful, I’m sure, of the country code of closing gates, keeping dogs on leads where animals are about, and basically leaving things as you find them. The footpaths mentioned in the following walks are all clearly marked in the Ordnance Survey Explorer map series, No. 141. Any feed-back on guidance notes, or indeed improvements and alternative walks would be most welcome. Walks and maps compiled by Phil Bradshaw (Parish Path Liaison Officer). Booklet planning, preparation and production by Paul Eitzen. Supported by Barton St David Parish Council. Maps taken from OS Explorer series and reproduction approved by OS. Crown Copyright. 2 CONTENTS 1. Barton - Kingweston - Jarmany Hill Distance 4 miles. Approximate time 2 hours. 2. Gosling Street - Flights Hole - Tootle Bridge Distance 3.5 miles. Approximate time 2 hours 3. Peacocks Hill and Combe Hill Distance 3 miles. Approximate time 1hour 30minutes. 4. Tootle Bridge - West Lydford - Keinton Mandeville Distance 5 miles .
