  • Shirehampton Remount Depot
    Shirehampton Remount Depot During World War I the main form of transport for troops, munitions and supplies was the horse or mule. The military effort on the Western Front from August 1914 to November 1918 required a continual supply of these animals. Several Remount Depots were set up across the UK to help maintain this supply. Shirehampton was one of the largest and over 300,000 horses passed through Shirehapmton and Avonmouth between 1914 and 1918. There are no surviving physical remains and very few very few These images are used courtesy of the Shirehampton Book of images of the Remount Depot. Remembrance At the beginning of the war most of these http://shirehamptonbookofremembrance.webs.com/ horses came from British farms, but this supply was quickly exhausted. By 1915 most of the animals were shipped over from Canada or the US to be stabled at Shirehampton before they were sent to the front as required.

Naming Shirehampton and the name Shirehampton Abstract: Focusing on the place-name Shirehampton in England, this article explores (1) the complications involved in understanding the history of a particularly difficult place-name (an etymological and philological question) and in the history of the naming of the place in question (an onomasiological question), (2) some practical consequences of different understandings of the place-name at different points in history (a historiographical question), and (3) the historical transfer of this name into other onomastic categories (a semasiological question and a culturally and theoretically interesting question). Some new understandings of the name and its history are proposed. The article can be taken as an object lesson in the lexical- semantic and phonological difficulties of historical onomastics (and therefore as academically routine), and also in the pleasures of travelling unexpected byways in the history of onomastics and in cultural history. It endeavours to affirm, by example, the case for historical onomastics as a discipline which ranges more widely than 6 RICHARD COATES establishing the etymology of a name, and explores finally some issues of theoretical and methodological interest.

  • Naming Shirehampton and the Name Shirehampton
    Naming Shirehampton and the name Shirehampton Richard Coates University of the West of England, Bristol Shirehampton is a village in southern Gloucestershire, England, which has been absorbed into the city of Bristol. It has expanded into a suburb with a population of 6867 in 1991 (census figure; the precise figure is not readily deducible from later census data).1 Its territory included, until 1917, what was marshland and is now Avonmouth port and suburb. The historical development of its name is easy to follow in broad but unrevealing terms, though there is a considerable amount of problematic detail. In this article I explore what it is possible to deduce about aspects of the processes involved in its evolution, which are not at all straightforward. The paper can also be taken as an object lesson in the lexical-semantic and phonological difficulties of historical onomastics, and in the pleasures of travelling unexpected byways in the history of onomastics and in cultural history. But historical onomastics, in the sense of establishing the etymology of a name, is not the same as exploring the history of a name, and not the same as the historiography of a name. In analysing Shirehampton and its name, we shall look at all of these techniques and processes in detail. In this article I attempt to explore the historical onomasiological questions of what this particular tract of ground has been called over the centuries, and why; the semasiological question of the use of the place’s name or names in derived names (commemoration); and the historiographical question of what scholars have deduced from the place’s name or names: first and foremost the history of the interpretation of the place’s name or names (changing views on its/their etymology, and the consequences of changes in such provisional knowledge), but also changing views about the identification (denotation) of the name or names featuring in the record, and some real-world consequences of that.

Everyone working for TSB is given 8 hours a year to get involved in their local area, to help their local community. Partners from Keypoint, Bradley Stoke dedicated their 60 hours to the local Youth Centre in Lawrence Weston. The youth centre is central to local commu- nity support work being carried out its important that this building looks and feels welcoming, ap- proachable and safe. We managed to paint the en- tire front of the building including frames in a vi- brant blue. This really lifted the look of the centre and will help in making all members of the commu- nity feel welcomed. It is brilliant to know that the time we’ve spent with Ambition Lawrence Weston has been useful and supported the charity in making improvements. Growing up in Shirehampton I am no stranger to the different community issues both are- as face. I am just glad to of been able to help a charity that is trying so hard to support all members of the community and make a difference. I would recommend anyone to get in touch with Mark at Ambition Lawrence Weston and volunteer to help the charity in any way you can.
