  • English Medieval Population: Reconciling Time Series and Cross Sectional Evidence
    ENGLISH MEDIEVAL POPULATION: RECONCILING TIME SERIES AND CROSS SECTIONAL EVIDENCE Stephen Broadberry, London School of Economics, [email protected] Bruce M. S. Campbell, The Queen’s University of Belfast, [email protected] Bas van Leeuwen, University of Warwick, [email protected] 11 October 2011 File: MedievalPopulation8 Abstract: A new time series for English medieval population is constructed from manor-level data using an index-number approach and a regional-weighting scheme. The absolute level of the medieval population is established with a benchmark for 1377, but using the need for consistency with other benchmarks for 1086, 1522 and 1541 as additional constraints. The amount of food required to support the peak medieval population is checked against a reconstruction of English agriculture at that time. Acknowledgements: This paper forms part of the project “Reconstructing the National Income of Britain and Holland, c.1270/1500 to 1850”, funded by the Leverhulme Trust, Reference Number F/00215AR.We are grateful to Alexander Apostolides for valuable research assistance and to Larry Poos for making available his data on tithing-penny payments. 1 I. INTRODUCTION The pioneering work on English medieval population by Russell (1948) established benchmark levels of population for 1086 and 1377 and considered time-series evidence to link these to each other and to estimates for the early-modern period. Russell paid particular attention to the consistency of his estimates over this long sweep of history and arrived at the conclusion that the peak level of medieval population before the Black Death was around 3.7 million.

  • Building Community
    BUILDING COMMUNITY Local church responses to the housing crisis Miriam Brittenden and Tom Sefton, with Alice Braybrook April 2019 FOREWORD The Grenfell Tower disaster of June 2017 in North Kensington became almost at once a symbol of our country’s housing crisis. It served as a stark reminder of how we have marginalised whole sections of the population in sub-standard housing, but also brought to the surface the resilience and power of local communities in responding to this tragic event. Most of us are affected in some way by the housing crisis. Indeed, we are seeing mounting problems, from unaffordable rents and insecure tenancies to poor quality housing and gross inequalities in housing wealth. But as is too often the case, it is the poorest who are bearing the brunt. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus says that judgment is linked to justice, namely, in the way in which we treat those who are most vulnerable and weakest. Out of that extraordinary passage comes the Christian call to work for the welfare of everyone in our society, including shelter and a good home for all. With that goal in mind, the Archbishop of Canterbury has set up a Commission on Housing, Church and Community. The Church – working with other public, private and voluntary organisations that share this vision – has a significant contribution to make in this area. We have land and resources that can be used to help meet the need for more affordable housing. We have social capital that can be used to uphold people’s right to a decent and secure home.

I doubt if any of the original editorial committee in 1996 thought that the supply of new and interesting articles would continue to flow so freely. Unusually this issue contains items only from the earliest and the latest centuries of Campden’s history. Two further instalments of the history of the C20 are included and a fascinating glimpse into mediaeval life. Research for the new town history is providing much of this material. A forum is also provided for potentially controversial ideas, such as Allan Warmington’s question ‘Where is Campden?’ Chipping Campden as a new town on a ‘green-field site’ is an appealing thought. Comments and views are requested. In addition occasionally enquirers for local information are prepared to allow their own stories to be recorded. We are grateful to one such, Mrs Boyesen, once head girl of Campden School.
