Arts in Action 2017 Saturday 24 June to Saturday 15 July www.hillingdon.gov.uk/arts Introduction The borough of Hillingdon is rich in artistic talent, with a multitude of societies providing residents with experiences and opportunities in choral, dance, drama, musical, visual arts, poetry and writing, needlework, floristry and more. Through this festival, Hillingdon Council, working in partnership with Hillingdon Arts Association (HAA), provides a chance for residents to share their very varied talents and hard work with the wider community, and it encourages many more people to discover the power and potential of community art projects.

  • Ruislip, Northwood & Eastcote Local History Society Everyday Life
    Ruislip, Northwood & Eastcote Local History Society Everyday Life on the Manor of Ruislip c. 1200-1500: Workshop on Manorial Records Led by Dr Virginia Bainbridge: Friday 11 May: 2.30-4.30 pm: The Stables, Eastcote House Gardens 2.30-3.00 – Life on Ruislip Manor for the medieval tenants of the Abbey of Bec: Powerpoint introduction to the manorial system and using its records as sources for local history 1. Origins of the Manorial System The origin of the manorial system stretches back into the era long before written records. The earliest documents recording land ownership are records of royal administration: Anglo-Saxon charters recording grants of land, Domesday Book written in 1086 recording changes in ownership and property values after the Norman Conquest, and the Pipe Rolls written by the scribes of the Exchequer from 1130 recording taxation collected by the sheriff (shire-reeve) of each county. 2. What is a Manor – Lords and Peasants – The ‘Feudal Pyramid’ From the time of the Norman Conquest, the legal fiction that the king owned all the land and granted it to his vassals governed the pattern of landholding. The great lords, the barons, abbots and bishops, held great estates from the king composed of many manors. Lesser lords, knights and gentry, held one or more manors, either directly from the king or from his barons and churchmen. By the late 12th century a market in parcels of freehold land and even whole estates had developed. Knightly families paid scribes to write deeds recording their exchange of property rights, both leases and sales.
