  • 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).

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Plymouth Electronic Archive and Research Library Networks, News and Communication: Political Elites and Community Relations in Elizabethan Devon, 1588-1603 by Ian David Cooper A thesis submitted to Plymouth University in partial fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Humanities and Performing Arts Faculty of Arts In collaboration with Devon Record Office September 2012 In loving memory of my grandfathers, Eric George Wright and Ronald Henry George Cooper, and my godfather, David Michael Jefferies ii Copyright Statement This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with its author and that no quotation from the thesis and no information derived from it may be published without the author’s prior consent. iii Abstract Ian David Cooper ‘Networks, News and Communication: Political Elites and Community Relations in Elizabethan Devon, 1588-1603’ Focusing on the ‘second reign’ of Queen Elizabeth I (1588-1603), this thesis constitutes the first significant socio-political examination of Elizabethan Devon – a geographically peripheral county, yet strategically central in matters pertaining to national defence and security. A complex web of personal associations and informal alliances underpinned politics and governance in Tudor England; but whereas a great deal is now understood about relations between both the political elite and the organs of government at the centre of affairs, many questions still remain unanswered about how networks of political actors functioned at a provincial and neighbourhood level, and how these networks kept in touch with one another, central government and the court.

  • By Mark Wareham, First Edition 15 December 2011
    Our Family’s Rich Heritage By Mark Wareham, first edition 15th December 2011 Featuring Blachford family ancestors of the – Wareham family of Shaftesbury and Shroton (Iwerne Courtney) in Dorset and the Russell, Hurdle and Tapper families of Shroton and Dodington family ancestors of the – Wareham family of Shaftesbury, Stainer family of Donhead and Shaftesbury and the Love family of Motcombe in Dorset and Mere in Wiltshire 1 Introduction My father’s Wareham family is fortunate to be able to claim ancestral connections to two lines that were landed gentry - the Blachfords of Fordingbridge and the Dodingtons of Mere. The choice of the title of this work is appropriate because I am going to look into our ‘rich’ roots in terms of historical value as well as wealth and social status. As a result of our connection to these two families we have so called ‘gateway’ ancestors, Susannah Blachford of Fordingbridge and Martha Dodington of Mere and they help us trace a family lineage back to the medieval period and beyond. The Blachford family held Sandhill Manor (now called Sandleheath) near Fordingbridge in Hampshire and the Dodington family held Woodlands Manor in Mere in Wiltshire. Page four shows the lines from my two great grandparents, Sidney’s parents Walter George Wareham and Harriet Stainer, to Susannah and Martha. One of my grandfather Sidney Wareham’s (pictured right) great x 7 grandfathers was the gentleman and Lord of the Manor of Woodlands, William Dodington and another great x 5 grandfather was the gentleman, Mr Daniel Blachford who grandson of the Lord of the Manor of Sandhill.

  • Haldon's Hidden Heritage
    Haldon’s Hidden Heritage The Haldon Hills – whose name may be derived from the Old English Haw-hyll dun, meaning ‘look-out hill’ – are often referred to as the ‘hidden’ hills of Devon. Apart from its forests and landmark tower, most people know little of its rich heritage. This unique exhibition touches every aspect of the Hills, through geology and prehistory, to the establishment of its grand country mansions. The panels are available to be shown in local community and school halls. 1 Supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund, with help from Arts Council England, Devon County Council, the Royal Albert Memorial Museum and the Forestry Commission.

  • Why Weddings Are Banned at Powderham Castle
    SALT AND LIGHT PAPERS Salt and Light Papers provide important information and analysis to help Christians and Churches to engage with 21st century social issues KA1 WHY WEDDINGS ARE BANNED AT POWDERHAM CASTLE Down at Powderham Castle in Devon, they are finding that standing by biblical principles can prove to be expensive. In fact Hugh Rupert Courtenay, 18th Earl of Devon, owner of the Castle, situated in the village of Kenton on the banks of the River Exe near Exeter, estimates that it will cost him £200,000 a year. Up until now the Castle has been licensed by Devon County Council as a venue for civil wedding ceremonies. However, the 66-year-old earl has recently refused to allow a same-sex couple to contract a civil partnership at the Castle, and the Council has ruled that under the Equality Act (Sexual Orientation) Regulations 2007, this is illegal discrimination. It plans to revoke the Castle’s licence from January 2009. Weddings already booked for 2008 will be allowed to proceed. The revocation of the licence means that the Castle, whose web site promotes the venue as ‘a truly majestic place to hold your wedding reception,’ will be hosting no more weddings from the New Year. Commenting on the Council’s decision, the earl is quoted as saying: ‘The question has never arisen here before, but I suppose I always knew it would at some time. Now it has, then that is the way it is and has to be. I have no option. As a Christian I have to object to this.’ The earl’s decision to ban the same-sex ceremony has been described by the couple concerned as ‘outrageous.’ Ben Summerskill, chief executive of Stonewall, a campaigning group on behalf of the gay community, now wants the Treasury to investigate whether the Earl’s stance calls into question any of the Inheritance Tax exemptions for which he currently qualifies.
