  • Spaces Wild, London Wildlife Trust
    SPACES WILD championing the values of London’s wildlife sites Protecting London’s wildlife for the future Foreword London is a remarkably green city supporting a wide diversity of habitats and species. Almost half of its area is blue and green space, and almost a fifth – covering over 1,500 different sites - is of sufficient value to biodiversity to be identified worthy of protection. These wildlife sites consist of much more than nature reserves, ranging from wetlands to chalk downs that are often valued by the local community for uses other than habitat. They have been established for almost 30 years, and as a network they provide the foundations for the conservation and enhancement of London’s wildlife, and the opportunity for people to experience the diversity of the city’s nature close to hand. They are a fantastic asset, but awareness of wildlife sites – the Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINCs) – is low amongst the public (compared to, say, the Green Belt). There is understandable confusion between statutory wildlife sites and those identified through London’s planning process. In addition the reasons why SINCs have been identified SINCs cover 19.3% of the are often difficult to find out. With London set to grow to 10 million people by 2030 the pressures on our wildlife Greater London area sites will become profound. I have heard of local authorities being forced to choose between saving a local park and building a school. Accommodating our growth without causing a decline in the quality of our natural assets will be challenging; we have a target to build an estimated 42,000 homes a year in the capital merely to keep up with demand.

  • Ruislip, Northwood & Eastcote Local History Society Everyday Life
    Ruislip, Northwood & Eastcote Local History Society Everyday Life on the Manor of Ruislip c. 1200-1500: Workshop on Manorial Records Led by Dr Virginia Bainbridge: Friday 11 May: 2.30-4.30 pm: The Stables, Eastcote House Gardens 2.30-3.00 – Life on Ruislip Manor for the medieval tenants of the Abbey of Bec: Powerpoint introduction to the manorial system and using its records as sources for local history 1. Origins of the Manorial System The origin of the manorial system stretches back into the era long before written records. The earliest documents recording land ownership are records of royal administration: Anglo-Saxon charters recording grants of land, Domesday Book written in 1086 recording changes in ownership and property values after the Norman Conquest, and the Pipe Rolls written by the scribes of the Exchequer from 1130 recording taxation collected by the sheriff (shire-reeve) of each county. 2. What is a Manor – Lords and Peasants – The ‘Feudal Pyramid’ From the time of the Norman Conquest, the legal fiction that the king owned all the land and granted it to his vassals governed the pattern of landholding. The great lords, the barons, abbots and bishops, held great estates from the king composed of many manors. Lesser lords, knights and gentry, held one or more manors, either directly from the king or from his barons and churchmen. By the late 12th century a market in parcels of freehold land and even whole estates had developed. Knightly families paid scribes to write deeds recording their exchange of property rights, both leases and sales.
