  • The Society of Friends in Wiltshire1
    The Society of Friends in Wiltshire1 OR the work of George Fox in Wiltshire see Wilts Notes <§ Queries, ii, 125-9, and The Journal of George Fox, Fed. N. Penney (Cambridge Edn.). The subsequent history of the Quakers in the county can be traced from the MS. records of the various quarterly and monthly meetings, from the Friends' Book of Meetings published annually since 1789 and the List of Members of the Quarterly Meeting of Bristol and Somerset, published annually since 1874. For the MS. records see Jnl. of Friends' Hist. Soc., iv, 24. The records are now at Friends House, Euston Road, London. From the beginning of the eighteenth century, the Quakers' story is of a decline which was gradual until 1750 and thereafter very rapid. The Methodists and Moravians largely supplanted them. An interesting example of the change over from Quakerism to Methodism is to be found in Thomas R. Jones' The Departed Worthy (1857). This book tells the life story of Charles Maggs, a distinguished Melksham Methodist. When Maggs first went to Melksham just after 1800 he made the acquaintance of two Methodists named Abraham Shewring and Thomas Rutty. The family names of Shewring and Rutty both occur in Melksham Quaker records between 1700 and 1750. Even more interesting is the fact that Abraham Shewring was known as " the Quaker Methodist " and that Charles Maggs found that " the quiet manner in which the service was conducted scarcely suited his warm and earnest heart "* WILTSHIRE QUARTERLY MEETING, c. 1667-1785 By 1680 the number of Quaker meetings in Wilts had reached its maximum.

  • Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages
    Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages Wiltshire is blessed with a fantastic variety of historic market towns and stunning picturesque villages, each one with something to offer. Here are a sample of Wiltshire’s beautiful market towns and villages. Amesbury Nestling within a loop of the River Avon alongside the A303, just 1½ miles from Stonehenge, historic Amesbury is a destination not to be missed. With recent evidence of a large settlement from 8820BC and a breath-taking Mesolithic collection, Amesbury History Centre will amaze visitors with its story of the town where history began. Bradford on Avon The unspoilt market town of Bradford on Avon offers a mix of delightful shops, restaurants, hotels and bed and breakfasts lining the narrow streets, not to mention a weekly market on Thursdays (8am-4pm). Still a natural focus at the centre of the town, the ancient bridge retains two of its 13th century arches and offers a fabulous view of the hillside above the town - dotted with the old weavers' cottages – and the river bank flanked by 19th century former cloth mills. Calne Calne evolved during the 18th and 19th centuries with the wool industry. Blending the old with the new, much of the original Calne is located along the River Marden where some of the historic buildings still remain. There is also the recently restored Castlefields Park with nature trails and cycle path easily accessible from the town centre. Castle Combe Set within the stunning Wiltshire Cotswolds, Castle Combe is a classically quaint English village. Often referred to as the ‘prettiest village in England’, it has even been featured regularly on the big screen – most recently in Hollywood blockbuster ‘The Wolfman’ and Stephen Spielberg’s ‘War Horse’.

  • Was There a Castle at Calne?
    Was there a Castle at Calne? Reseach and ver two days in May of 2010, John Oswin, Owen Dicker and other members fieldwork from of BACAS and WANHS (Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Calne in Society) carried out a geophysical survey to see if we could find any Wiltshire O evidence of structures in Castle Fields in Calne. Robin Holley Four 20m x 20m grids were aligned across a flattened platform that had been and artificially scarped. Using resistivity, magnetometry, GPR (Ground Penetrating Lynn Amadio Radar) and a resistance profiler we were able to obtain readings from these surveys which indicated that there was significant disturbance under the topsoil. When the detailed results were analysed, the interpretation confirmed that there were indications of a curved ditch and possible stone structures in the main area. One of these features was large and circular, and had the appearance of being a round tower (see Figures 1, 2 and 3). Castles and Tower Houses The word 'castle' has been loosely assigned to many large structures built in the past. For instance, Iron Age hillforts are often called castles, e.g. Barbury Castle and Maiden Castle. Some were arguably defensive structures but they were certainly not castles and many could not have sustained permanent occupation. When, in AD43, the Romans arrived as conquerors, different building styles and techniques were introduced. Timber forts were erected in preference to earthen ramparts. As the occupation lengthened, stone replaced timber as the material of choice in the construction of dwellings and defended sites. After the fall of Rome, the withdrawal of the legions and the subsequent invasions of Britain from the north-east by Angles, Saxons and Jutes, many technologies, including building in stone, were lost.
