  • ABBREVIATIONS Use. the Reader That
    ABBREVIATIONS A. GENERAL Most of these call for no explanation, as they are in everyday use. The reader has already been warned that 'q.v.' does not invariably imply that there is a separate article on the person so indicated—in several instances he must be sought in the general article on his family. Again, the editor has not troubled to insert a 'q.v.' automatically after the name of a person who is so very well known that the reader may confidently assume that the book contains an article on him. Dates (of birth or death) left unqueried may be assumed to rest on authority: whether the authority is invariably correct is another matter. Dates queried indicate that we are merely told (on good authority) that the person concerned, say, 'died at the age of 64'. The form '1676/7' is used for the weeks of 1 January- 25 March in the years preceding the reform of the calendar by the Act of 1751. The 'Sir' (in Welsh, 'Syr') prefixed to a cleric's name in the older period is in practice merely the 'Rev.' of later times. Strictly speaking, it implied that the cleric had not taken the degree of M.A. (when he would have become 'Mr.', or in Welsh 'Mastr'); a 'Sir' might be a B.A., or an undergraduate, or indeed quite frequently a man who had never been near a university. It will be remembered that Shakespeare has 'Sir Hugh Evans' or, again, 'Sir Nathaniel, a curate'. B. BIBLIOGRAPHICAL Sir John Lloyd had issued to contributors a leaflet prescribing the abbreviations to be used in referring to 'a selection of the works most likely to be cited', adding 'contributors will abbreviate the titles of other works, but the abbreviations should not be such as to furnish no clue at all to the reader when read without context'.

Introduction Section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 imposes a duty on Local Planning Authorities to determine from time to time which parts of their area are „areas of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance‟ and to designate these areas as conservation areas. Hay-on-Wye is one of four designated conservation areas in the National Park. Planning authorities have a duty to protect these areas from development which would harm their special historic or architectural character and this is reflected in the policies contained in the National Park’s Local Development Plan. There is also a duty to review Conservation Areas to establish whether the boundaries need amendment and to identify potential measures for enhancing and protecting the Conservation Area. The purpose of a conservation area appraisal is to define the qualities of the area that make it worthy of conservation area status. A clear, comprehensive appraisal of its character provides a sound basis for development control decisions and for developing initiatives to improve the area.

  • 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.

  • The Romanesque Doorway at St Padarn's Church, Llanbadarn Fawr
    Archaeologia Cambrensis 156 (2007), 51 –72 The Romanesque doorway at St Padarn’s church, Llanbadarn Fawr, Radnorshire By RITA WOOD with a contribution by DAVID STEPHENSON SUMMARY. The Victorian building retains the early twelfth-century doorway from a medieval church on this site. The doorway is very like those seen at churches across the English midlands, yet one capital has figures which, arguably, represent an episode from the life of St Padarn, the Celtic saint of mid Wales. The circumstances that might have enabled such a combination are examined. GENERAL INTRODUCTION Llanbadarn Fawr, Radnorshire, is little more than a farm, a church and a detached house beside the river Ithon half a mile south of Crossgates: the hamlet is not even named on some Ordnance Survey maps. 1 Emrys Bowen notes that this is one of three churches in Radnorshire dedicated to St Padarn, and that these are aligned close to a major north to south route. 2 Additionally, this St Padarn’s is about 30 miles south-east of the more famous Llanbadarn Fawr in Ceredigion, the early ecclesiastical settlement a mile or two inland from Aberystwyth. 3 The Radnorshire church is just off the east-west route from Llanbadarn Fawr through Rhayader to Kington and Leominster or Hereford. The present church was constructed in 1878–79 on the site of what seems to have been a simple medieval church of nave and continuous chancel. 4 Reused fabric can be seen in the walls around the lower parts of the doorway, and may exist elsewhere: no stones of the pre-existing British church have been identified.

  • The Counties
    The information on this document is available online from the Association of British Counties at http://county-wise.org.uk/counties/ The Counties Their longevity have made the 92 historic counties an indelible part of the history, heritage, geography and culture of the nation. Our country’s division into counties goes back to mediaeval and feudal times. The counties emerge in England The division of England into shires began in Wessex in the mid-Saxon period. With the Wessex conquest of Mercia in the 9th and 10th centuries, the system was extended to central England. At the time of the Domesday Book, northern England comprised Cheshire and Yorkshire. The remaining counties of the north were established in the 12th century. Rutland appears in the Domesday Book, but is first recorded as a county in 1159. The counties emerge in Scotland The Scottish counties have their origins in the shires first created in the reign of Alexander I (1107-24), and in accordance with the pattern further south, each had a shire reeve, or sheriff. The pattern of shires that existed by the time of the late Middle Ages is believed to be very close to that existing in the mid-nineteenth century. The central and western Highlands and the Isles were not assigned to shires until the early modern period, Caithness becoming a sheriffdom in 1503 and Orkney in 1540. The counties emerge in Wales The first eight counties of Wales were created by King Edward I in 1284, by the Statute of Rhuddlan. The present day pattern of the historic counties was established by the Laws in Wales Act 1535, which established Denbighshire, Montgomeryshire, Radnorshire, Brecknockshire and Monmouthshire from the areas of the former marcher lordships.

  • Slander and Defamation: a New Source for Historical Dialectology
    Slander and Defamation: a New Source for Historical Dialectology Gwenllian M. Awbery, Ann E. Jones and Richard F. Suggett This paper originally appeared in Cardiff Working Papers in Welsh Linguistics, 4 (1985) 1-24 Ready access to large amounts of raw data is now taken for granted by dialectologists and sociolinguists. Since the early 1950s it has been possible to taperecord natural speech in a wide variety of situations, and to store it for later analysis. There is therefore a wealth of material available for synchronic descriptive work on the linguistic usage of this recent period, and it is a comparatively simple matter to fill gaps with further programmes of recording. For those wishing to look at the spoken language as it was in earlier periods however, the situation is rather more frustrating. We can achieve an element of apparent time-depth by recording speakers of different ages and assuming that the speech of older members of the community represents an earlier stage, that of younger members a later development.1 It is possible in fact, where a sound archive has been in existence for some time, to extend the time depth quite considerably. The earliest speakers recorded for the Welsh Folk Museum sound archive, for instance, were born in the 1860s, and one or two as early as the late 1850s. The number of tapes which allow one to go back as far as this are comparatively few however, even in a large and long-established archive of this kind. Very occasionally one may come across much earlier recordings of natural speech.
