One of the points of difference between the bearings of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs on the one hand and those of the I Police Burghs on the other lies in the fact that the former carry castles and ships to an extent which becomes almost monotonous, while among the latter these bearings are rare. On the other hand, the Police Burghs very frequently assume a charge of which A 079 2 Aberchirder. examples, in the blazonry of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs, are very rare : this is the cross, derived apparently from the fact that their market-crosses are the most prominent of their ancient monuments. In cases where the cross calvary does not appear, a cross of some other kind is often found, as in the present instance.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

  • Crondall Crondall
    Crondall Crondall 1.0 PARISH Crondall 2.0 HUNDRED Crondall 3.0 NGR SU 479500 148500 4.0 GEOLOGY Upper Chalk, but northern extension of settlement just abounds an island of Valley Gravel and Sand. 5.0 SITE CONTEXT Crondall is a complex settlement which is laid out around an intricate network of routeways. In simple terms, there are three elements. The first is linear and follows a south-west / north-east route along Well Lane / Pankridge Street via The Borough. This conforms to the valley of a small stream, a tributary of the River Hart, which rises from a pond at Hannam’s Farm. The valley floor is a little less than 85m AOD, with sides rising to c. 100m AOD to east and west. The second element extends south-eastwards along the road to Clare Park, climbing gently for all of that distance. The third component is at the south-west extreme of Crondall where the parish church of St Mary stands dominant on rising ground (c. 95m AOD). South-west of, and adjacent to the church, are the remnant buildings of the former Court Farm, the site of Crondall’s manor house. 6.0 PLAN TYPE & DESCRIPTION Small farmstead clusters (including church and manor) with agglomerations Crondall is an amalgam of a number of settlement types. 6.1 Church and manor house/ farmstead The Church of St Mary is C12. The adjacent Court Farm was once the venue for the manor court (VCH 4: 6). In fact, the whole complex is at the north end of a linear land unit which extends south to the parish boundary including within it the Barley Pound ring and bailies (10.0).
