Looking (e.g. by surname). anew at this subject challenges the prevailing assumptions in the scholarship that this 'medieval' practice had become outmoded and little-used by the fifteenth and To compile this data, I looked comprehensively through a number of archival sixteenth centuries. Although for decades after 1400 sanctuary-seeking was indeed collections, especially National Archives [TNA], KB 9 [King’s Bench indictment files] fairly rare, the evidence in the legal records shows the numbers of felons seeing and other document classes at TNA with online calendars (which allowed cases refuge in churches began to climb again in the late fifteenth century and reached involving sanctuary to be identified easily), such as Chancery bills (C 1), Star its peak in the period between 1525 and 1535. Sanctuary was not so much a Chamber (STAC 2), Common Pleas (CP 40 – calendar at British History Online) and medieval practice accidentally surviving into the early modern era, as it was an State Papers (SP); I also looked at much (but not all) of the Rex side of KB 27 (the organism that had continued to evolve and adapt to new environments and indeed Coram Rege rolls), at KB 29 (King’s Bench controlment rolls), and at numerous flourished in its adapted state. Sanctuary suited the early Tudor regime: it other records at TNA and other archives that came to my attention through intersected with rapidly developing ideas about jurisdiction and provided a means references in other scholars’ work or other research. Many of the records at the of mitigating the harsh capital penalties of the English law of felony that was useful National Archives at Kew are available through the Anglo-American Legal Tradition not only to felons but also to the crown and the political elite. Sanctuary's project website (http://aalt.law.uh.edu), including most of the King’s Bench records resurgence after 1480 means we need to rethink how sanctuary worked, and to on which I have relied heavily. I also searched through any printed sources for the reconsider more broadly the intersections of culture, law, politics, and religion in period that I thought might have instances of sanctuary seeking.

  • Climatic Variability in Sixteenth-Century Europe and Its Social Dimension: a Synthesis
    CLIMATIC VARIABILITY IN SIXTEENTH-CENTURY EUROPE AND ITS SOCIAL DIMENSION: A SYNTHESIS CHRISTIAN PFISTER', RUDOLF BRAzDIL2 IInstitute afHistory, University a/Bern, Unitobler, CH-3000 Bern 9, Switzerland 2Department a/Geography, Masaryk University, Kotlar8M 2, CZ-61137 Bmo, Czech Republic Abstract. The introductory paper to this special issue of Climatic Change sununarizes the results of an array of studies dealing with the reconstruction of climatic trends and anomalies in sixteenth­ century Europe and their impact on the natural and the social world. Areas discussed include glacier expansion in the Alps, the frequency of natural hazards (floods in central and southem Europe and stonns on the Dutch North Sea coast), the impact of climate deterioration on grain prices and wine production, and finally, witch-hlllltS. The documentary data used for the reconstruction of seasonal and annual precipitation and temperatures in central Europe (Germany, Switzerland and the Czech Republic) include narrative sources, several types of proxy data and 32 weather diaries. Results were compared with long-tenn composite tree ring series and tested statistically by cross-correlating series of indices based OIl documentary data from the sixteenth century with those of simulated indices based on instrumental series (1901-1960). It was shown that series of indices can be taken as good substitutes for instrumental measurements. A corresponding set of weighted seasonal and annual series of temperature and precipitation indices for central Europe was computed from series of temperature and precipitation indices for Germany, Switzerland and the Czech Republic, the weights being in proportion to the area of each country. The series of central European indices were then used to assess temperature and precipitation anomalies for the 1901-1960 period using trmlsfer functions obtained from instrumental records.

  • Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes
    Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes + Physical Influences Malhamdale The landscape of Malhamdale is dominated by the influence of limestone, and includes some of the most spectacular examples of this type of scenery within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and within the United Kingdom as a whole. Great Scar limestone dominates the scenery around Malham, attaining a thickness of over 200m. It was formed in the Carboniferous period, some 330 million years ago, by the slow deposition of shell debris and chemical precipitates on the floor of a shallow tropical sea. The presence of faultlines creates dramatic variations in the scenery. South of Malham Tarn is the North Craven Fault, and Malham Cove and Gordale Scar, two miles to the south, were formed by the Mid Craven Fault. Easy erosion of the softer shale rocks to the south of the latter fault has created a sharp southern edge to the limestone plateau north of the fault. This step in the landscape was further developed by erosion during the various ice ages when glaciers flowing from the north deepened the basin where the tarn now stands and scoured the rock surface between the tarn and the village, leading later to the formation of limestone pavements. Glacial meltwater carved out the Watlowes dry valley above the cove. There are a number of theories as to the formation of the vertical wall of limestone that forms Malham Cove, whose origins appear to be in a combination of erosion by ice, water and underground water. It is thought that water pouring down the Watlowes valley would have cascaded over the cove and cut the waterfall back about 600 metres from the faultline, although this does not explain why the cove is wider than the valley above.

  • A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD
    A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD Christ Church was founded in 1546, and there had been a college here since 1525, but prior to the Dissolution of the monasteries, the site was occupied by a priory dedicated to the memory of St Frideswide, the patron saint of both university and city. St Frideswide, a noble Saxon lady, founded a nunnery for herself as head and for twelve more noble virgin ladies sometime towards the end of the seventh century. She was, however, pursued by Algar, prince of Leicester, for her hand in marriage. She refused his frequent approaches which became more and more desperate. Frideswide and her ladies, forewarned miraculously of yet another attempt by Algar, fled up river to hide. She stayed away some years, settling at Binsey, where she performed healing miracles. On returning to Oxford, Frideswide found that Algar was as persistent as ever, laying siege to the town in order to capture his bride. Frideswide called down blindness on Algar who eventually repented of his ways, and left Frideswide to her devotions. Frideswide died in about 737, and was canonised in 1480. Long before this, though, pilgrims came to her shrine in the priory church which was now populated by Augustinian canons. Nothing remains of Frideswide’s nunnery, and little - just a few stones - of the Saxon church but the cathedral and the buildings around the cloister are the oldest on the site. Her story is pictured in cartoon form by Burne-Jones in one of the windows in the cathedral. One of the gifts made to the priory was the meadow between Christ Church and the Thames and Cherwell rivers; Lady Montacute gave the land to maintain her chantry which lay in the Lady Chapel close to St Frideswide’s shrine.

    50P DONATION APPRECIATED Photo by Jayne Walden of Billy with Issy Carr Local Teenager Featured On TV By Jayne Walden Local teenager Billy Walden has had his carpentry work featured on the Channel 4 TV programme ‘George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces’. Billy was the youngest Project Manager ever to appear on the programme. The episode received great acclaim and since the programme Billy has not only received job offers but has also been contacted by an independent production company. After the filming, George Clarke said, "In all my years I don’t think I have ever been so impressed by such a talented and humble craftsman". Continued over………… Find us on Facebook the bentham news find us on the web www.thebenthamnews.co.uk 2 …………. Continued from page 1 Billy showcased two projects on the show. One, when he was just 15, was his truly outstanding feat of transforming a rusty VW LT into a spectacular campervan for the family to use. The other, when he was 17, was taking a dilapidated canal narrowboat through its transformation into a beautiful floating home for the family, which consists of me, Billy and his autistic, cheeky, energetic sister, Matilda. The boat is named ‘MatildaJayne’ after us. The refurbishment was followed by George Clarke for his ‘Amazing Spaces’ programme on Channel 4. The response to the boat has been so immense and positive that Billy has been asked to do charity events with the boat in the summer. Billy said that he thoroughly enjoyed doing the build and cannot wait to do his next one, which he has plans for already.

  • Jex-Blake, T W, Historical Notices of Robert Stillington; Chancellor of England, Bishop of Bath & Wells
    ; Proceedings of the Somersetshire A rchceological and Natural History Society, 1894, Part II. PAPE11S, ETC. historical jQotices of Etobert ©ttlUngton Chancellor of CnglanD, iBis&op of TBatf) $ aBelte. BY THE VERY REV. T. W. JEX-BLAKE, D.D. (Dean of Wells.) AKLY in 1894 the Dean and Chapter of Wells made * -* extensive excavations east of the Cloisters and south of the Cathedral, to ascertain the exact site, condition, and measurements of the foundations of two chapels, of the thir- teenth and fifteenth centuries respectively. The chapel of the fifteenth century was known to be Bishop Stillington's, and was found to be of unexpected magnificence ; a second cathedral, in fact, with transepts ; 120 feet long from east to west, and 66 feet from north to south in the transepts. The foundations were superb, as will be seen from the architectural plans and descriptions made in detail by Mr. Edmund Buckle, the Diocesan Architect. New Series, Vol. XX. II. a , 1894, Part 2 Papers, 8fc. Canon Church undertook to collect the notices of Bishop Stillington and his work, in the Diocesan Registers and the Cathedral Eecords : and at the request of Mr. Elworthy, our Secretary, I promised to find out and put together whatever I could learn of Bishop Stillington from ancient and modern history and records. His splendid chapel might have been standing to this day, as little injured as the Cathedral or the Chapter House by the troubles of the Cromwellian period, or by Monmouth's brief campaign, if only it had been spared for a twelvemonth : for it was destroyed in the very last year of Edward VI : the greed of a courtier trading on the need of the greatly impoverished Dean and Chapter.
