  • The Impact of Agricultural Depression and Land
    THE IMPACT OF AGRICULTURAL DEPRESSION AND LAND OWNERSHIP CHANGE ON THE COUNTY OF HERTFORDSHIRE, c.1870-1914 Julie Patricia Moore Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD September 2010 2 ABSTRACT The focus of this research has been on how the county of Hertfordshire negotiated the economic, social and political changes of the late nineteenth century. A rural county sitting within just twenty miles of the nation’s capital, Hertfordshire experienced agricultural depression and a falling rural population, whilst at the same time seeing the arrival of growing numbers of wealthy, professional people whose economic focus was on London but who sought their own little patch of the rural experience. The question of just what constituted that rural experience was played out in the local newspapers and these give a valuable insight into how the farmers of the county sought to establish their own claim to be at the heart of the rural, in the face of an alternative interpretation which was grounded in urban assumptions of the social value of the countryside as the stable heart of the nation. The widening of the franchise, increased levels of food imports and fears over the depopulation of the villages reduced the influence of farmers in directing the debate over the future of the countryside. This study is unusual in that it builds a comprehensive picture of how agricultural depression was experienced in one farming community, before considering how farmers’ attempts to claim ownership of the ‘special’ place of the rural were unsuccessful economically, socially and politically.

  • Hertfordshire Gardens Trust
    HERTFORDSHIRE GARDENS TRUST SPRING NEWSLETTER 2014 AND ANNUAL REPORT 1 From the President: “This year has been one of smooth transition as one Chairman retires and another steps into his shoes. Christopher Melluish has been an exemplary Chairman and although it was sad to see him relinquish the post it is exciting to witness Bella Stuart-Smith hit the deck running. Her schools team have made a break through by successfully organising a training session for teachers, this means their valuable work will reach more children than ever before. There is plenty of activity within the thriving HGT : the section leaders within the Trust have been as active as ever; a full range of events and outings is planned throughout 2014; and looking ahead, HGT is planning its celebration for the Capability Brown tercentenary in 2016.” 2 Chairman’s Report—Bella Stuart-Smith Judging by my inbox and by reading all our reports, the Trust is very busy. There is still time to book the Propagation Day on 2nd April (contact Annie Saner: Tel. 01442 843428 or email [email protected]) and that is the first of many exciting events and outings planned. I really hope to go on all of them and I know they will entertain and stimulate in equal measure. What strikes me most about the Trust’s work is its direct impact on so many people: it isn’t all about private country estates. This month two large Heritage Lottery Fund bids are being submitted for Cassiobury Park, and the Hemel Water Gardens. If successful, these historic landscapes will be enjoyed by a whole new generation.
