One area that had not yet been fully exploited as a tourist scull – to be hired by the hour for pleasure. With an initial launching attraction was the River Teme. It had long been a centre of leisure platform near Mill Street Weir, the scheme was an instant hit with activity for the people of the town, acting not only as a playground, both locals and visitors, with queues forming to spend time on the especially for the younger working classes, but also as the venue water. The idea was so popular with visitors that the Committee, for middle class swimming and boating clubs. However, in the against all past precedents, even turned a deaf ear to protestations Edwardian years Ludlow decided to host annual regattas, hoping to from the pulpit of St Laurence’s and voted to extend the scheme to attract hundreds of extra visitors. Their genesis lay with a decision of Sundays. When the first regatta was held on the lower waters of the Teme, between the Mill Street weir and Dinham Bridge, the most popular side to view it from was that of the Whitcliffe bank.

  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.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.

Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.

Using data based largely on published papers and BGS mapping in the public domain, a 100 km long East-West section through Church Stretton and Bridgnorth has been constructed. By developing gravity and magnetic models, it has been possible to postulate feasible crustal configurations for the deep geology. Implications for deep crustal studies in the region are discussed in the context of questions raised by members following the presentation of this thesis as a lecture to the Society on 11th October 2006.

    National Character 65. Shropshire Hills Area profile: Supporting documents www.gov.uk/natural-england 1 National Character 65. Shropshire Hills Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper1, Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention3, we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform theirdecision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The informationthey contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future. 1 The Natural Choice: Securing the Value of Nature, Defra NCA profiles are working documents which draw on current evidence and (2011; URL: www.official-documents.gov.uk/document/cm80/8082/8082.pdf) 2 knowledge.
