Shropshire Council is working to make Shropshire a great place to live, learn, work, and visit- we want to innovate to thrive. To make that ambition a reality, we need to understand what our towns and communities need in order to make them better places for all. Our Place Plans – of which there are 18 across the county – paint a picture of each local area, and help all of us to shape and improve our communities. Place Plans are therefore documents which bring together information about a defined area. The information that they contain is focussed on infrastructure needs, such as roads, transport facilities, flood defences, schools and educational facilities, medical facilities, sporting and recreational facilities, and open spaces. They also include other information which can help us to understand local needs and to make decisions.

The Liberties and Municipal Boundaries The Domesday ‘city’ (civitas) of Shrewsbury included nine hides identifiable as the townships of its original liberty. To the south of the Severn they included Sutton, Meole Brace, Shelton, and Monkmeole (Crowmeole), and to the north Hencott.1 The location of a further half-hide, belonging to St Juliana’s church, was described by Eyton as ‘doubtful’,2 but may refer to the detached portions of St Juliana’s in Shelton.3 More obscure, as leaving no later parochial trace, was a virgate in Meole Brace which belonged to St Mary’s church.4 The Domesday liberties, however, were not settled.

The county was contested during the First Civil War of 1642-6 and also saw armed conflict on a smaller scale during the Second Civil War of 1648. This detailed study provides a comprehensive bipartisan analysis of military endeavour, in terms of organisation and of the engagements fought. Drawing on numerous primary sources, it explores: leadership and administration; recruitment and the armed forces; military finance; supply and logistics; and the nature and conduct of the fighting.

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.

  • The Following Pages Are Transcripts of Conversations That Were Recorded in the Late Eighties. They Record Some of the Details O
    The following pages are transcripts of conversations that were recorded in the late eighties. They record some of the details of life in Hadnall in the twentieth Century along with some of the “characters” of the period. My family used to live at Whitehurst in Astley Lane and later at 25 Shrewsbury Road and lived out there days there. I was born there; I left school on a Friday and started work at Hardwicke stables on the Monday as a groom. Jim Bowdler’s uncle was chauffeur to Mr Bibby; they em- ployed seven chauffeurs and about forty grooms. There were a lot of horses, they were the stables for the North Shropshire Hunt, but the hounds were kept at Lee Bridge. I was there for about four years and then I went to Leicestershire. My father was carpenter on the estate all my life, he made gates and rails. Everybody who left school in Hadnall always went to work on the estate. I should think a least two dozen people worked at the Hall; there were parlour maids, ladies maids, kitchen maids, footmen and also there was about a dozen men in Hardwicke gardens. When I was a youngster I hated horses and steam- rollers, then I left school and went to work at the stables. When I came back from the war, I went to work on Bradley’s van. My mother came from Lancashire, Widnes; my grandparents lived at Acton Reynald Lodge. Father was a bit of a mystery, to tell the truth. I suppose he was a Shropshire man but we never knew where he came from.

  • A Genealogical History of the Wright Family by Nick Engler
    A Genealogical History of the Wright Family By Nick Engler Bishop Milton Wright was a dedicated genealogist who boasted that he could trace his lineage back eleven generations to “his great-grandfather’s great grandfather,” Sir John Wright, Lord of Kelvedon Hall in Essex County, England, born 1485, died 1551. And the Bishop had cause to be proud. In the days before the Internet and the massive online collections of family records that are available to us in the twenty-first century, genealogical research depended on notes kept in a family Bible, hints from family letters and oral traditions, and correspondence with far-away clerics and government officials who often had better things to do than answer a query about a long-dead parishioner or citizen. For Milton to trace his family back through four centuries and across two continents was a singular accomplishment in his day. Today we know a great deal more about the Wright lineage; more than the Bishop could ever have imagined. Because the Internet provides a way for far-flung people to instantly share information, genealogical and biographical information accumulates quickly. In Milton’s day there was a trickle of information, today there is a flood. The problem becomes not whether we can find information about an ancestor, but whether we can trust it. The river of digital information that flows around us is full of tall tales, half-truths, and downright lies. All information must be carefully winnowed to separate the facts from the fictions. Consequently, genealogy today is not just a quest but a science.

  • Richard Gough Historian of Myddle the Village and the Castle
    Richard Gough Historian of Myddle The Village and The Castle The Village of Myddle 1 The village of Myddle lies in a hollow, just off the main Shrewsbury to Ellesmere road, at the point where a secondary road, from Clive to Baschurch, crosses it. Originally it was a Saxon settlement, called (Ge) Mythleah, “the wood by the junction of the stream” – see Bowcock’s Shropshire Place Names. However Dr David G Hey, in his book on Myddle under the Tudors and Stuarts, suggests that the junction with the secondary road, which was once an important through-road linking Oswestry with Market Drayton, and Newport, and much used by cattle-traders, may be the origin of the name. There was a stream in the hollow, but it is now so small as to be quite insignificant. Between the years 1021 and 1242 the village was called variously, “Muthla”; “Mulleht”; “Mhutle” and “Mudle” – see Exwall’s Oxford Dictionary of English Place Names. By 1800 it had become “Middle”, but as there was frequent confusion with “Middletown”, a village on the near-by Welsh border, the Rev. Preb. G H Egerton, who was Rector of Myddle for fifty-eight years, proposed the spelling of “Myddle” which has been used since around 1878. The village straggles down to the stream and on up to the crossroads. The Church and the Castle were built on the west side, at the highest point, on a less exposed and more defensible site. The sandstone used for their building and for the massive walls, which are common in the village and surrounding district, was quarried from the rocks along the Lower Road, between Myddle and Harmer Hill – where the “Goblin Hole” may also be seen.

  • The History of Myddle by RICHARD GOUGH
    The History of Myddle by RICHARD GOUGH -----.{N.lle-- CALIBAN BOOKS v PREFACE Professor Hoskins has written in the facsimile original edition of.The Antiquities and Memoirs of Myddle: "Gough's History of Myddle . sounds like the nar- rowest kind of parish-pump history one could possibly imagine, of interest only to devoted local historians in Shropshire. It is in fact a unique book. It gives us a pic- ture of seventeenth-century England in all its wonderful and varied detail such as no other book that I know even remotely approaches. If History is, as has once been said, the men and women of the past talking and we over- hearing their conversations, then Gough's history of his native parish, written between the years 1700 and 1706, is History . A whole countryside, an entire society, comes alive in our minds, in a way that no historian, however skilled, can possibly evoke . this remarkable book is one of the most entertaining books ever written in English, unique in our literature."l Given the outstanding quality of Gough's work, why is the book not more widely known amongst historians and the general public? The answer lies probably in the nature of the original edition not only is some of its content anti- quarian in nature,- but so is much of its style and lay-out. The aim of the present edition is to eliminate material of purely antiquarian interest, and to re-arrange presentation and style of the original - in particular spelling, which has been modernised throughout - so as to make it much more accessible to the modern reader.
