  • Tucked Between Flat Midlands and Ru Walks of the Shropshire Way and Ordnance
    ., . SHRO Tucked between flat Midlands and ru walks of the Shropshire Way and Ordnance WORDS NICK HAWSSEY PHOTOGRAPHY BOB ATKINS hurch Stretton and the hills around it occupy some bizarre bubble of alternate space, floating ephemerally somewhere west of Shrewsbury. C This pocket paradise of underused paths and trails shouldn't be there; it's been sneaked in, between pancake-flat Midlands and Welsh gnarl, like a bit of late school homework. Arriving here feels like you've broken into another dimension, one where time stopped several hours ago and where the place names are a tongue-twisting mish­ mash of Old English, Welsh and something else entirely. I had never set foot in Shropshire before this feature. Now, I'd happily rank it among my favourite places to walk. Anywhere. And here's why... THE SHROPSHIRE WAY A few years ago, ex-Army officer and adoptive Shroppie lad Jim Stabler took a look at the Shropshire Way and found it wanting. It skirted some staggering beauty spots, as if paranoid of going too near them. It failed to link some of the best walking country that Shropshire has to offer. And it was full of stiles, tricky river crossings and other navigational tripwires. Jim resolved to do something about it. and with help from Shropshire County Council. he has. As walkers, we owe the man a pint, especially as he's done it in a couple of years and for a mere £160,000 - most of it coming from the European Union. His work has concentrated on the southern section, which is at the heart of Explorer 21Z This stretch takes in the big hitters of the trail.

  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT Trilobites from the Ludlow and Přídolí of England and Wales are described. A total of 15 families; 36 genera and 53 species are documented herein, including a new genus and seventeen new species; fourteen of which remain under open nomenclature. Most of the trilobites in the British late Silurian are restricted to the shelf, and predominantly occur in the Elton, Bringewood, Leintwardine, and Whitcliffe groups of Wales and the Welsh Borderland. The Elton to Whitcliffe groups represent a shallowing upwards sequence overall; each is characterised by a distinct lithofacies and fauna. The trilobites and brachiopods of the Coldwell Formation of the Lake District Basin are documented, and are comparable with faunas in the Swedish Colonus Shale and the Mottled Mudstones of North Wales. Ludlow trilobite associations, containing commonly co-occurring trilobite taxa, are defined for each palaeoenvironment.

The point of Dereg is to cut down bureaucracy and to make the legal process around ROW easier however evidence will still be required to support claims. Shona will update the forum once more details of the Dereg Bill are known.
