  • 'Music at the Priory' Event – Worksop
    PRESS RELEASE 13th November 2018 Immediate use Pilgrims Festival 2018 – Worksop Priory – “Music at the Priory” Monday 19th & Friday 23rd November 2018 At Worksop Priory, there will be two music events, each starting at 7.00pm, with a talk about the Priory and its links to the Separatists. Each event is £10pp on entry, including a mince pie and mulled wine. On Monday 19th November, medieval harpist Leah Stuttard will perform her programme “Sacred Fragments” made up from 13th and 14th century sacred music from England played on a sweet and angelic harp with readings interspersed from the medieval mystic Julian of Norwich, a poem from a commonplace book on the shortness of life, and comedy from one of the Towneley plays. The guiding idea behind this programme is the fact that so much English music from the Middle Ages is preserved only in very random and fragile ways – in fragments. On Friday 23rd November, The Doncaster Waites will play music from the streets at the time of the Separatists. They are an early music group based in the town of Doncaster and take their name from the bands of musicians who used to be employed by local corporations as town musicians, “The Waites”. The music they play is generally centred around the first half of the 17th century, the time when the first detailed accounts of the original Doncaster Waites appear in the archives. Their costume is also based on these accounts and the men accurately represent how the original Waites would have looked at that time. Pilgrims Art Exhibition – Babworth Church – 17th & 18th November This year’s Pilgrims Art Exhibition will be on Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th November.

  • Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve Oyster Fungus on Birch, Birklands
    Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve Oyster fungus on birch, Birklands Introduction In the heart of Nottinghamshire lie the ancient forests of Birklands and Budby, an extensive area of old pasture-woodland and heathland on the dry nutrient-poor soils © Peter Wakely/Natural England © Peter Wakely/Natural of the Sherwood Sandstone. Together they represent a rare and wonderful fragment of the great forest of Sherwood, one of the most famous forests in the world. Today, over 420 hectares of this internationally important forest is now managed as a National Nature Reserve (NNR). © Peter Wakely/Natural England © Peter Wakely/Natural Ancient wood-pasture, Birklands “By itself it stands, and is like no other spot on which my eyes have looked, or my feet have ever England © Peter Wakely/Natural trod. It is Birkland...” (Charles Reece Pemberton, 1835). Woodland glade, Birklands History Birklands, which is an old Viking word meaning ‘birch land’, was first mentioned in documents in 1251 and is likely to be at least one thousand years old. It was part of the vast Royal Forest of Sherwood that once covered over 41,000 hectares of the county. The wood remained the property of the Crown for nearly 600 years and was used as a source of timber, grazing land and as an exclusive hunting ground rich with wild deer for successive kings and queens of England. Contrary to popular opinion, much of the historic Sherwood Forest was, in fact, tree-less, being dominated by wild open plains of heathland such as Budby South Forest. This uncultivated forest land was once grazed by wild deer, rabbits and livestock; and its trees, gorse and bracken were collected by local people for fuel and fodder.

  • Geographies of Belonging in the Nottinghamshire Coalfield: Affect, Temporality and Deindustrialisation
    GEOGRAPHIES OF BELONGING IN THE NOTTINGHAMSHIRE COALFIELD: AFFECT, TEMPORALITY AND DEINDUSTRIALISATION Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester by Jay Emery School of Geography, Geology and the Environment University of Leicester December 2018 Abstract This thesis investigates the affective-temporal processes of belonging among mining families in the Nottinghamshire coalfield, examining how affective histories and memories of deindustrialisation and the coal industry mediate belongings. Literatures on the post- industrial working-class have noted how processes of deindustrialisation and industrial ruination have dismantled previous formations of belonging based around work, community and place. Research has also highlighted ways that the past emerges and surfaces in the present to unsettle and disrupt contemporary belongings. Analysis prescribed around specific methods belies the relationalities of discursive, embodied and sensorial textualities and distorts from how the past in the present is lived. Further, fundamental to understanding and recognising the past in the present is an attentive reading of those pasts from an historical perspective. Relatedly, social scientists have identified how affective class histories transfer intergenerationally and dispose working-class bodies to industrial forms of life that no longer exist. I suggest that the relationalities between belonging and memory, lived experience and intergenerational transferences need to be understood as one affective-temporal process. Drawing on weak theory, Anderson’s ‘analytics of affect’ and the genealogical method, I propose a multi-modal methodology emphasising attunement to the embodied, reflexive and more-than-representational modes that the past emerges, as well as a nuanced tracing of place pasts. Through this methodological and analytical framework, I conceive the Nottinghamshire coalfield as a set of temporal and affective enfolded blendings conditioning the capacities of residents to belong and resist alienation.
