  • THE STORY of an ENGLISH SAINT's CULT: an ANALYSIS of the INFLUENCE of ST ÆTHELTHRYTH of ELY, C.670
    THE STORY OF AN ENGLISH SAINT’S CULT: AN ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF ST ÆTHELTHRYTH OF ELY, c.670 – c.1540 by IAN DAVID STYLER A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham August 2019 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This thesis charts the history of the cult of St Æthelthryth of Ely, arguing that its longevity and geographical extent were determined by the malleability of her character, as narrated within the hagiographical texts of her life, and the continued promotion of her shrine by parties interested in utilising her saintly power to achieve their goals. Arranged chronologically and divided into five distinct periods, the thesis demonstrates that this symbiotic relationship was key in maintaining and elongating the life of the cult. Employing digital humanities tools to analyse textual, archaeological, material, cartographic, and documentary sources covering the cult’s eight-hundred-year history, the study charts its development firstly within East Anglia, and subsequently across the whole country, and internationally.

  • Welwyn Hatfield's Annual Monitoring Report 2005 the Welwyn Hatfield
    Welwyn Hatfield’s Annual Monitoring Report 2005 The Welwyn Hatfield District Plan was adopted on 15 April 2005 and provides the Council’s policies and proposals for land use in the district up until 2011. The existing Development Plan for Welwyn Hatfield comprises of Regional Planning Guidance 9, the Hertfordshire Structure Plan, the Hertfordshire Waste and Minerals Local Plans and the Welwyn Hatfield District Plan 2005. The Regional Spatial Strategy for the East of England (RSS14) is being prepared and along with the Local Development Framework for Welwyn Hatfield and the Waste and Minerals Development Frameworks being prepared by the County Council will replace the existing Development Plan. On 28 September 2004 the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 came into force. This legislation introduces a new development plan system in England. Structure Plans, Local Plans, Waste and Minerals Plans and Unitary Development Plans will be replaced by new types of development plans. At a regional level there will be a Regional Spatial Strategy for the East of England. At a local level there will be a portfolio of statutory and non-statutory Local Development Documents known collectively as a Local Development Framework. Work is currently underway on the first stages in the new development plan system for Welwyn Hatfield. Meanwhile, the District Plan policies remain as “saved policies”, for at least 3 years, until the new local development documents are adopted. This is the first Annual Monitoring Report for the period 1 April 2004 to 31 March 2005. This document has been prepared in consultation with key stakeholders and data providers and has been amended to reflect the responses received from consultees.
