There have, not unexpectedly, been considerable archival losses too, as some later vacancy inventories at York make clear: the Durham sede vacante register of Alexander Neville (1381) and accompanying visitation records; the York sede vacante register after Neville’s own translation in 1388; the register of Thomas Arundel (only the register of his vicars-general survives today), and the register of Robert Waldby (likewise only his vicar-general’s register is now extant) have all long disappeared.1 Some of these would also have included records of ordinations, now missing from the chronological sequence.

  • River Witham the Source of the 8Th Longest River Wholly in England Is
    River Witham The source of the 8th longest river wholly in England is just outside the county, Lincolnshire, through which it follows almost all of a 132km course to the sea, which is shown on the map which accompanies Table Wi1 at the end of the document. Three kilometres west of the village of South Witham, on a minor road called Fosse Lane, a sign points west over a stile to a nature reserve. There, the borders of 3 counties, Lincolnshire, Rutland and Leicestershire meet. The reserve is called Cribb’s Meadow, named for a famous prize fighter of the early 19th century; at first sight a bizarre choice at such a location, though there is a rational explanation. It was known as Thistleton Gap when Tom Cribb had a victory here in a world championship boxing match against an American, Tom Molineaux, on 28th September 1811; presumably it was the only time he was near the place, as he was a Bristolian who lived much of his life in London. The organisers of bare-knuckle fights favoured venues at such meeting points of counties, which were distant from centres of population; they aimed to confuse Justices of the Peace who had a duty to interrupt the illegal contests. Even if the responsible Justices managed to attend and intervene, a contest might be restarted nearby, by slipping over the border into a different jurisdiction. In this fight, which bore little resemblance to the largely sanitised boxing matches of today, it is certain that heavy blows were landed, blood was drawn, and money changed hands, before Cribb won in 11 rounds; a relatively short fight, as it had taken him over 30 rounds to beat the same opponent at the end of the previous year to win his title.

  • The Landscape Speaks – Dowsing Discoveries
    A PDF OF THIS DOCUMENT CAN BE DOWNLOADED FROM http://www.dangreencodex.co.uk/contributor.html THE LANDSCAPE SPEAKS – DOWSING DISCOVERIES Introduction This is a summary of the various landscape geometries I have discovered (or more correctly, that have discovered me) since 2006. They include several landscape pentagrams, a 200 mile alignment with a pairing of earth energy dragon currents, a terrestrial representation of the celestial winter and summer triangles and a mirror-image of the constellation Cygnus surrounded by a landscape image of the head of Baphomet and enclosed by yet another a pentagram. Many of these landscape features link into one another when various lines are extended. They also link into geometries and alignments discovered by other researchers. Moreover, much of the geometry seems to link in with Lincoln and Dan Green’s Lincoln Cathedral Code. The document is also a summary of my current ideas and suggestions about the nature of earth energies, particularly earth energy vortexes and the earth energy “dragon” currents that weave through the landscape. I believe that together these two energetic features form part of the earth’s own self-cleansing and healing system, which is currently not working to anywhere near its full potential.

  • Teachers' Notes: 4. Tudor Houses in Lincolnshire Including Tupholme Abbey After the Dissolution of the Monasteries Ordinary Pe
    Teachers’ notes: 4. Tudor houses in Lincolnshire including Tupholme Abbey after the Dissolution of the monasteries Ordinary people’s houses Until the industrial revolution when the mass production and transport of goods around the country became possible, the homes of ordinary people throughout Britain were built using locally traditional techniques and the building materials that were most readily available. Because techniques and materials varied from region to region, distinctive building types emerged that were characteristic of and unique to their own areas. This type of architecture is known as vernacular architecture. In Lincolnshire the local vernacular style of building was a timber and earth-based construction called mud and stud. During the Tudor period brick was still an expensive material that was largely the preserve of the wealthy, and stone cottages were only built in the limestone belt, especially on the Lincolnshire Edge that runs north to south through the county. Timber was in short supply in Lincolnshire, especially in the second half of the 16 th century, which meant that the most easily obtainable material was earth (mud). Mud and stud used an earth mixture supported on a framework that required the minimum of timber. Building with timber and earth was not confined to Lincolnshire, but the particular method of mud and stud is unique to the county. Even in the 16 th century building with earth and wood was an established tradition in the county. In the Tudor period the main frame of the house would usually have been made of oak. It consisted of vertical wall posts and horizontal rails braced at the corners.
