  • The Archaeology of Castle Slighting in the Middle Ages
    The Archaeology of Castle Slighting in the Middle Ages Submitted by Richard Nevell, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Archaeology in October 2017. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ……………………………………………………………………………… Abstract Medieval castle slighting is the phenomenon in which a high-status fortification is demolished in a time of conflict. At its heart are issues about symbolism, the role of castles in medieval society, and the politics of power. Although examples can be found throughout the Middle Ages (1066–1500) in England, Wales and Scotland there has been no systematic study of the archaeology of castle slighting. Understanding castle slighting enhances our view of medieval society and how it responded to power struggles. This study interrogates the archaeological record to establish the nature of castle slighting: establishing how prevalent it was chronologically and geographically; which parts of castles were most likely to be slighted and why this is significant; the effects on the immediate landscape; and the wider role of destruction in medieval society. The contribution of archaeology is especially important as contemporary records give little information about this phenomenon. Using information recovered from excavation and survey allows this thesis to challenge existing narratives about slighting, especially with reference to the civil war between Stephen and Matilda (1139–1154) and the view that slighting was primarily to prevent an enemy from using a fortification.

Like the open fields, it may be Glanville Jones’s ‘multiple estate’ (Jones 1961) older.4 and John Blair’s minster parish (Blair 1988),1 Rather than ‘Where are the minsters?’ attempts to identify Leicestershire’s earliest better to ask ‘What territories were served by churches and pre-hundredal structures have minsters?’ Can they be identified and their mainly concentrated on area studies.2 Blair extents estimated?5 Can they be categorised? himself notes how some ‘relatively settled’ Sub-kingdoms, provinces, folk territories, and areas such as Leicestershire ‘still seem very regiones (Bassett 1993; Hooke 1998) are thin’ in their number of minsters, asking ‘whether not easily distinguished from each other and the contrast is simply in the surviving sources’ from hundreds and wapentakes. Moreover, (Blair 2005, 152, 315-6). While the national a network of minsters, monastic or secular, and regional pictures remain incomplete,3 with neatly dovetailing parochiæ, will not alone uncertainty clings to the shape of religious reveal the ancient devotional landscape. provision before and after the Augustinian Places of religious or ritual resort came in many mission, the process of Christianisation, the guises. What became Leicestershire had a extent of Danish colonisation, the impact of richly varied religious geography as this study reforms, and the emergence of the parochial shows, but we should expect it from continental network. This ramifies back and forth with evidence. In southern Germany, for example, secular matters: cultural identity, nucleation, churches were first built at fords or crossroads, manorialisation, and here the existence of hilltops, burial barrows, or springs for baptism, Leicestershire itself.

  • The Medieval Castles of Leicestershire by Leonard M
    The medieval castles of Leicestershire by Leonard M. Cantor For the purposes of this article, we may define the medieval castle as the private fortress or residence of a lord, whether a king or baron.1 It was this private character which distinguished it both from its predecessor, the Saxon fortified place or burh which was larger and communal, and also from its successor, the purely military fortress of modern times. In many instances it also served as the administrative centre and garrison of royal or baronial lands. This definition embraces three main types of castle: the earth and -timber structure, prevalent during the century following the Norman Conquest; the stone castle which began to become common after the middle of the twelfth century but which was occasionally found earlier; and the fortified manor house which was prevalent after the middle of the fourteenth century. It is really only the second category and, to a lesser extent, the third which are popularly recognised as castles. The medieval castle was introduced into this country in the second half of the eleventh century by the Normans, who built it as a means of enforcing their rule over the country they had just conquered. This early castle typically consisted of a high mound of earth, or motte, with a flat top on which a wooden tower was erected. At the foot of the mound, there was a simple enclosure or bailey, defended by an earth rampart and a moat. Known as moue-and-bailey castles, they increased in numbers throughout the century after the Conquest and, by about 1150, there must have been many hundreds of them.

  • The Bourton Family and Their Lords in the Twelfth-Century Midlands
    Prosopon Newsletter 1 Copyright © Richard Dace, 2003 The Bourton Family and their Lords in the Twelfth-Century Midlands. Richard Dace (Highams Park, London) Domesday Book records that in 1086 the vills of Bourton-on-Dunsmore (Warks) and Ibstock (Leics) belonged to Count Robert of Meulan, a Norman magnate whose extensive cross channel estates included a substantial number of holdings in Warwickshire.1 The Count’s tenant at both places was Ingenwulf, about whom we know little more than the fact of his tenure, and that his name is English. He is presumably one and the same as the Ingenwulf who jointly held land of the Count at two other places in Warwickshire, Wilnecote and Seckington.2 It is not clear from Domesday Book whether Ingenwulf had held these lands before the Conquest. No mention of previous ownership is made in respect of Ibstock, whilst at Bourton the statement that that Leofwine held the manor in 1066 seems to refer to the Count’s interest rather than Ingenwulf’s. However continuity of tenure by an English tenant would not be exceptional for the Dunsmore area in which Bourton was located. The extended Arden family, descendants of Æethelwine, a Pre-Conquest sheriff of Warwickshire and brother of Leofwine, still had substantial property holdings in north-east Warwickshire a century later.3 Amongst the Arden tenants c.1166 was Henry of Rugby, the grandson of the Edwulf who held neighbouring Rugby (Warwicks) in 1086 and another Warwickshire manor before 1066.4 In the mid-twelfth century Bourton and Ibstock were held by Robert of Bourton.

  • WALKING TRAIL Sculptor: James Butler MBE RA James Butler Sculptor
    King Richard III WALKING TRAIL Sculptor: James Butler MBE RA James Butler Sculptor: Richard III 1452-1485 Richard III was born in October 1452, during the troubled reign of King Henry VI. His childhood was overshadowed by the Wars of the Roses - the white rose of York against the red rose of Lancaster. Both sides were descendants of King Edward III and were fighting to claim the throne. Richard belonged to the York side of the family, his elder brother was crowned King Edward IV after a Yorkist victory in 1461. Richard became the Duke of Gloucester and Edward’s most loyal supporter. Richard’s first recorded visit to Leicester was on the 10th May 1464 at the age of eleven. He visited the city on various occasions as the Duke of Gloucester, staying at the castle on his journeys between the north and south of England. In 1483, King Edward IV died. His eldest son Edward (Richard’s nephew), was due to inherit the throne. However, a dramatic period followed, during which time Edward and his brother were declared illegitimate due to his father’s previous marriage contract. Controversially, Richard was crowned King at Westminster Abbey on the 6th July. Before becoming King, Richard had a strong power base in the north and his reliance on northerners during his reign increased resentment in the south. On 7th August 1485, Richard learnt that Henry Tudor had landed in Wales with an army of Lancastrian exiles and intended to claim the throne. Richard sent out letters ordering his northern supporters to join him in Nottingham and those from the south to meet him in Leicester.

  • A TIME TEAM EVALUATION at GROBY OLD HALL, LEICESTERSHIRE Naomi Brennan1
    ‘HERE WAS AN ANCIENT CASTLE’: A TIME TEAM EVALUATION AT GROBY OLD HALL, LEICESTERSHIRE Naomi Brennan1 illustrations by Rob Goller An archaeological evaluation, undertaken on land at Groby Old Hall, Groby, Leicestershire, demonstrated a complex sequence of medieval buildings. The initial focus was the defensive motte, keep and bailey ditch, reportedly constructed in the late eleventh century and slighted in the late twelfth century. Evidence was found for the construction of the keep, and a section was excavated across what is likely to have been the bailey ditch. By the fourteenth century (or possibly the thirteenth century) occupation had shifted to the south-west, where a number of buildings were arranged around a courtyard, with structural evidence from the evaluation trenches suggesting at least two phases of construction. These buildings were probably dismantled in the late fifteenth or early sixteenth century when a new brick manor house, Groby Old Hall, was built to the south-west. INTRODUCTION In April 2010 an archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Channel 4’s Time Team at the Grade II* listed Groby Old Hall, Groby, Leicestershire (Scheduled Ancient Monument (SAM) 10110193 and Listed Building 1074083) (Fig. 1), the site of a motte and bailey castle, and a medieval hall and chapel. In addition to characterising the site, one of the aims of the evaluation, which comprised geophysical survey (ground penetrating radar and resistance survey) and the excavation of eight trenches, was to provide information on its phasing and chronology during the early and late medieval periods (Wessex Archaeology 2011). The site (centred on NGR 452390 307630) is bounded to the north by the A50 dual carriageway, to the west by the churchyard of St Philip and St James Church, to the south by Markfield Road, and to the east by residential properties.
