The Military Orders in Wales and the Welsh March in the Middle Ages1
The Military Orders in Wales and the Welsh March in the Middle Ages In the later medieval centuries the Hospitallers’ estates in Wales were among the most extensive of any religious corporation there. In 1535, just before the dissolution of the monasteries, the commandery at Slebech was the third richest monastic house in Wales, after the Cistercian abbeys at Tintern and Valle Crucis. The next richest house after Slebech was another Cistercian house, Margam Abbey, © Copyrighted Material followed by the Benedictine priory at Abergavenny. by comparison with other Hospitaller houses in England and Wales. In 1338 it received the largest income of any Hospitaller house in England and Wales, apart Chapter 16 from the main house at Clerkenwell just outside London, fourth highest net value of the Hospitallers’ twenty-two houses in England and Wales, after Clerkenwell, Buckland and Ribston. we might expect the Hospitallers to have held great authority and power in Wales, and their Welsh property to have been very significant within the Order.

SOUTHERN AREA PLANNING SUB-COMMITTEE 10TH OCTOBER, 2007 9 DCSW2007/2455/F - CONVERSION OF ATTIC TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL RESIDENTIAL SPACE (2 BEDROOMS AND 1 BATHROOM), NO. 4 DOYRE HOUSE, PONTRILAS, HEREFORDSHIRE, HR2 0EH For: Trustees Kentchurch Children's Trust per Berringtons, The Estate Office, The Vallets, Wormbridge, Hereford, HR2 9BA Date Received: 3rd August 2007 Ward: Valletts Grid Ref: 39710, 27620 Expiry Date: 28th September 2007 Local Member: Councillor Mrs MJ Fishley 1. Site Description and Proposal 1.1 Doyre House is a red brick faced and slate roofed property on the northern side of the C1233 road. It used to be a property with a shop onto the main thoroughfare in Pontrilas, with accommodation behind the shop and on the first floor. This building has recently been converted into solely residential use, by sub-dividing the imposing Victorian building into 4 residential units. 1.2 The car parking area is down slope from the Class III road; the declining access track is between Doyre House and Woodvale to the west. This car parking area has been approved and designated for use by the planning permission granted last year. The current proposal is to convert the attic space above unit 4 which is on the north- western corner of the building. This will entail providing two additional bedrooms which will be lit by two rooflights in the north facing roof slope. An existing 1.2 metres high by 0.5 metres width window will also be utilised in the south-western gable fronted elevation. 2.

Annual Report 2013
ANNUAL REPORT Report for the year ended 31 August 2013 WHAT IS THE METHODIST COLLECTION? The Methodist Modern Art Collection comprises paintings, limited edition prints and reliefs. In the early 1960s John Morel Gibbs, a Methodist layman and art collector – realising that many Non-conformists had little appreciation of the insights that contemporary artists could bring to the Christian story – decided to create a collection of prime examples of such work that could be toured around the country. This he did, with the help of Methodist minister, the Revd Douglas Wollen. The works they acquired became the core of the present Collection – described as “the best denominational collection of modern art outside the Vatican”. The Collection includes leading names from the British art world of the last 100 years, such as Edward Burra, Elisabeth Frink, Eric Gill, Patrick Heron and Graham Sutherland. In recent years the Collection has acquired works by artists from the world church, including Jyoti Sahi from India, Sadao Watanabe from Japan and John Muafangejo from Namibia. Still expanding, works by artists such as Craigie Aitchison, Peter Howson, Susie Hamilton, Clive Hicks-Jenkins and Maggi Hambling have been acquired, and today it comprises 50 paintings, prints, drawings, relief and mosaic works. The Collection is valued as a key resource for mission and evangelism, whether on a denominational or an ecumenical basis. The Collection, in whole or in part, is available as a touring exhibition, and has travelled widely, to town and city galleries, cathedrals, churches and schools, showing at four to six venues a year. When not on tour, the Collection is stored under the care of a custodian at the Oxford Centre for Methodism and Church History, Oxford Brookes University. -

At its heart is the Heritage at Risk Register, an online database containing details of each site known to be at risk. It is analysed and updated annually and this leaflet summarises the results. Heritage at Risk teams are now in each of our nine local offices, delivering national expertise locally. The good news is that we are on target to save 25% (1,137) of the sites that were on the Register in 2010 by 2015. From St Barnabus Church in Birmingham to the Guillotine Lock on the Stratford Canal, this success is down to good partnerships with owners, developers, the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), Natural England, councils and local groups. -

Linda Moffatt 2016, at the website of the Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com'. DATES • Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter.
