  • The Emergence of the Cumbrian Kingdom
    The emergence and transformation of medieval Cumbria The Cumbrian kingdom is one of the more shadowy polities of early medieval northern Britain.1 Our understanding of the kingdom’s history is hampered by the patchiness of the source material, and the few texts that shed light on the region have proved difficult to interpret. A particular point of debate is the interpretation of the terms ‘Strathclyde’ and ‘Cumbria’, a matter that has periodically drawn comment since the 1960s. Some scholars propose that the terms were applied interchangeably to the same polity, which stretched from Clydesdale to the Lake District. Others argue that the terms applied to different territories: Strathclyde was focused on the Clyde Valley whereas Cumbria/Cumberland was located to the south of the Solway. The debate has significant implications for our understanding of the extent of the kingdom(s) of Strathclyde/Cumbria, which in turn affects our understanding of politics across tenth- and eleventh-century northern Britain. It is therefore worth revisiting the matter in this article, and I shall put forward an interpretation that escapes from the dichotomy that has influenced earlier scholarship. I shall argue that the polities known as ‘Strathclyde’ and ‘Cumbria’ were connected but not entirely synonymous: one evolved into the other. In my view, this terminological development was prompted by the expansion of the kingdom of Strathclyde beyond Clydesdale. This reassessment is timely because scholars have recently been considering the evolution of Cumbrian identity across a much longer time-period. In 1974 the counties of Cumberland and Westmorland were joined to Lancashire-North-of the-Sands and part of the West Riding of Yorkshire to create the larger county of Cumbria.

We were so pleased to finally welcome the children back into school and have thoroughly enjoyed our first few days with the Reception children. I have detailed below some key information that you might find helpful over the coming weeks, as well as a few reminders of some of the steps we have had to take to ensure the safety of our children as well as the school community as a whole. Please remember that if you need to chat with me about anything then please get in touch. The best way to do so at the moment is via my email, [email protected] and we can arrange a suitable time for a phone call if necessary. Spare Clothes, Wellingtons, Waterproofs and Outdoor Clothing We are very lucky to have such a wonderful outdoor area and the children have access to this on a daily basis. If you haven’t done so already, could you please provide a pair of (named) wellingtons to be kept in school for outdoor play, as well as accessing the field during playtimes. Children should also have their coats with them on a daily basis, although we do have a small supply of waterproof jackets and trousers for wet and windy play. Some of the children may occasionally need a change of clothes.
