1 Buckinghamshire; a Military History by Ian F. W. Beckett
Buckinghamshire; A Military History by Ian F. W. Beckett 1 Chapter One: Origins to 1603 Although it is generally accepted that a truly national system of defence originated in England with the first militia statutes of 1558, there are continuities with earlier defence arrangements. One Edwardian historian claimed that the origins of the militia lay in the forces gathered by Cassivelaunus to oppose Caesar’s second landing in Britain in 54 BC. 1 This stretches credulity but military obligations or, more correctly, common burdens imposed on able bodied freemen do date from the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of the seventh and eight centuries. The supposedly resulting fyrd - simply the old English word for army - was not a genuine ‘nation in arms’ in the way suggested by Victorian historians but much more of a selective force of nobles and followers serving on a rotating basis. 2 The celebrated Burghal Hidage dating from the reign of Edward the Elder sometime after 914 AD but generally believed to reflect arrangements put in place by Alfred the Great does suggest significant ability to raise manpower at least among the West Saxons for the garrisoning of 30 fortified burghs on the basis of men levied from the acreage apportioned to each burgh. 3 In theory, it is possible that one in every four of all able-bodied men were liable for such garrison service. 4 Equally, while most surviving documentation dates only from 1 G. J. Hay, An Epitomised History of the Militia: The Military Lifebuoy, 54 BC to AD 1905 (London: United Services Gazette, 1905), 10. -

A SOCIAL HISTORY of MILTON KEYNES CASS SERIES: BRITISH POLITICS and SOCIETY Series Editor: Peter Catterall ISSN: 1467-1441
A SOCIAL HISTORY OF MILTON KEYNES CASS SERIES: BRITISH POLITICS AND SOCIETY Series Editor: Peter Catterall ISSN: 1467-1441 Social change impacts not just upon voting behaviour and party identity but also the formulation of policy. But how do social changes and political developments interact? Which shapes which? Reflecting a belief that social and political struc- tures cannot be understood either in isolation from each other or from the histor- ical processes which form them, this series will examine the forces that have shaped British society. Cross-disciplinary approaches will be encouraged. In the process, the series will aim to make a contribution to existing fields, such as pol- itics, sociology and media studies, as well as opening out new and hitherto- neglected fields.

CAMPBELL PARK, MILTON KEYNES AMENDED August 2018
Understanding Historic Parks and Gardens in Buckinghamshire The Buckinghamshire Gardens Trust Research & Recording Project CAMPBELL PARK, MILTON KEYNES AMENDED August 2018 The Stanley Smith (UK) Horticultural Trust Bucks Gardens Trust HISTORIC SITE BOUNDARY NB the south-west corner of Campbell Park (the environs of Marlborough Street) overlaps with part of the north-east corner of Central Milton Keynes (qv). Bucks Gardens Trust, Site Dossier: Campbell Park, Milton Keynes, MKC A 2018 NB the south-west corner of Campbell Park (the environs of Marlborough Street) overlaps with part of the north-east corner of Central Milton Keynes (qv). 2 INTRODUCTION Background to the Project This site dossier has been prepared as part of The Buckinghamshire Gardens Trust (BGT) Research and Recording Project, begun in 2014. This site is one of several hundred designed landscapes county-wide identified by Bucks County Council (BCC) in 1998 (including Milton Keynes District) as potentially retaining evidence of historic interest, as part of the Historic Parks and Gardens Register Review project carried out for English Heritage (now Historic England) (BCC Report No. 508). The list is not definitive and further parks and gardens may be identified as research continues or further information comes to light. Content BGT has taken the Register Review list as a sound basis from which to select sites for appraisal as part of its Research and Recording Project for designed landscapes in the historic county of Bucks (pre-1974 boundaries). For each site a dossier is prepared by volunteers trained on behalf of BGT by experts in appraising designed landscapes who have worked extensively for English Heritage/Historic England on its Register Upgrade Project. -

Haversham-cum-Little Linford Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group The Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group and Haversham-cum-Little-Linford Parish Council have been working for a considerable time to prepare a Neighbourhood Plan for the Parish. We have been assisted in this by Oneill Homer, a leading consultancy who have assisted Parish and Town Councils around the country to produce well over 100 Neighbourhood Plans, including several in Milton Keynes. The cost of this consultancy work has been paid for by a government grant. What is a Neighbourhood Plan? A document that sets out planning policies for the neighbourhood area – planning policies are used to decide whether to approve planning applications. Written by the local community, the people who know and love the area, rather than the Local Planning Authority. A powerful tool to ensure the community gets the right types of development, in the right place. What is this document for? We had hoped to hold a public meeting / exhibition to discuss the significant work undertaken so far and find out YOUR views of our policy intents and the potential development sites offered by landowners. -
