  • The Birds of Herefordshire 2015
    The Birds of Herefordshire 2015 Herefordshire Ornithological Club Annual Report Jackdaws and Hereford cattle at Much Marcle in March 2015 (Photo: Mick Colquhoun) Editorial This is the 65th annual report of the ‘Birds of Herefordshire’, the Herefordshire Ornithological Club’s (HOC) annual publication for 2015, which I hope you will enjoy reading. During the year a total of 172 species were recorded, summary details and highlights of which are presented in the systematic list section on pages 30 – 98, for which I wish to thank the species authors. An alphabetic index of species is included on pages 146 – 147 to help readers locate individual species information and a gazetteer of place names mentioned in the species accounts is provided on pages 142 – 145. The county list of species (now numbering 281) was boosted by the sighting of a Spotted Sandpiper, a county ‘first’, at Wellington Gravel Pits in May 2015 (see article on pages 28 – 29), and seven other rarities with 20 or fewer previous county records also made an appearance in Herefordshire during the year: Red-crested Pochard, Marsh Harrier, Turnstone, Temminck’s Stint, Red-necked Phalarope, Caspian Gull and Common Redpoll. A tremendous amount of effort has gone into validating the records of rarities on the county list during the past year and the review article on pages 12 – 18 makes enlightening reading and provides a definitive list and dates of sightings for all 94 rarity species with 20 or fewer records. The large increase in the number of bird records received in 2014, compared with previous years, continued in 2015 with a similar 46,000 records being utilised in compiling this annual report.

  • ELECTORAL REVIEW of HEREFORDSHIRE
    22 November 2012 Review Officer (Herefordshire) LGBCE, Layden House, 76-86 Turnmill Street, London EC1M 5LG Dear Sir ELECTORAL REVIEW of HEREFORDSHIRE I support the Commission’s plan for a 53 member council made up of single member wards, and hope the Commission will resist any moves to make way for any multi- member wards. There were some gremlins however in your report – most notably mis- reading of compass bearings! Eardisley is firmly located in the west, whereas Colwall is the east (page 15), and Fownhope is east of Hereford (page 17). But the Commission is to be congratulated on steering through a workable solution despite all the constraints imposed both by the regulations and the socio-political geography of Herefordshire. There does seem to be some problem with Holmer parish which has been included within adjacent areas of Hereford city without making this clear. This seems certain to meet with justified resistance from residents of Holmer parish. Otherwise I support the thrust of proposals for warding within Hereford city, as well as those for Ledbury and Leominster, and am content with the proposals for Ross on Wye. I support the bulk of the Commission’s proposals in rural areas but have some suggestions below which better match community links. First some suggestions for change of name of proposed rural wards LGBCE Nov 2012 comment preferred name Burghill long straggly ward from outskirts of Queenswood Leominster to Hereford Bishops Frome potential confusion with other communities Cradley within Frome valley which aren’t is this ward – prefer name of main parish in the ward Walford prefer current name which implies links Kerne Bridge across River Wye Ashperton Frome valley Clehonger name Madley as more central parish Madley & Clehonger Kimbolton Kimbolton & Brimfield Colwall The Commission has suggested that Mathon be added to Colwall but Colwall ward is already large enough and Mathon has stronger ties with Cradley so inclusion with Bishop’s Frome, renamed Cradley , would produce slightly more balanced electorates.

  • The History of Walsopthorne Farm, Herefordshire
    The Great Barn of 1425–27 at Harmondsworth, Middlesex Barn of 1425–27 at Harmondsworth, The Great The gigantic barns built by the major landowners of medieval England are among our most important historic monuments. Impressive structurally and architecturally, they have much to tell us about the technology of the time and its development, and are buildings of great and simple beauty. But, unlike houses, The Great Barn of 1425–7 castles and churches, barns were centres of production, where grain crops were stored and threshed, and allow us to glimpse a very different side of medieval life – the ceaseless round of at Harmondsworth, Middlesex the farming year on which the lives of rich and poor depended. The Great Barn at Harmondsworth, built in 1425–27 for Edward Impey Winchester College, rescued and restored by English Heritage with Daniel Miles and Richard Lea and Historic England in the last decade, is one of the most impressive and interesting of them all. Prefaced by an exploration of the ancient estate to which it belonged and of its precursor buildings, this book explores why, how and when the barn was built, the ingenuity and oddities of its construction, and the trades, materials and people involved. Aided by an exceptionally full series of medieval accounts, it then examines the way the barn was actually used, and the equipment, personnel, processes and accounting procedures involved – specifically relating to Harmondsworth, but largely common to all great barns. Finally, it covers its later history, uses and ownership, and the development of scholarly and antiquarian Lea Impey with Daniel Miles and Richard Edward interest in this remarkable building.

  • HEREFORDSHIRE Is Repeatedly Referred to in Domesday As Lying In
    ABO BLOOD GROUPS, HUMAN HISTORY AND LANGUAGE IN HEREFORDSHIRE WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE LOW B FREQUENCY IN EUROPE I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Aberystwyth Received6.x.64 1.INTRODUCTION HEREFORDSHIREis repeatedly referred to in Domesday as lying in Wales and the county is regularly described as such in the Pipe Rolls until 1249-50. Of the two dozen or so charters granted to the county town, a number are addressed to the citizens of Hereford in Wales. That fluency in Welsh was until 1855oneof the qualifications for the post of clerk to the Hereford city magistrates indicated the county's bilingual nature. The object of the present investigation is to ascertain whether there is any significant genetic difference between the part of Herefordshire conquered by the Anglo-Saxons and the area called "Welsh Hereford- shire ".Assome moorland parishes have lost 50 per cent. of their inhabitants during the last 50 years, the need to carry out the survey is the more pressing. 2.THE HUMAN HISTORY OF HEREFORDSHIRE Pre-Norman Conquest Offa'sgeneral line of demarcation between England and Wales in the eighth century extending in Herefordshire from near Lyonshall to Bridge Sollars, about five miles upstream from Hereford, is inter- mittent in the well-wooded lowlands, being only found in the Saxon clearings. From this Fox (i) infers that the intervening forest with its dense thickets of thorn and bramble filling the space under the tree canopy was an impassable barrier. Downstream to Redbrook (Glos.) the river was probably the boundary but the ferry crossing from Beachley to Aust and the tidal navigational rights up the Wye were retained by the Welsh—facts which suggest that the Dyke was in the nature of an agreed frontier.
