  • The-Discomfort-Of-Frontiers-Keith-Ray
    The Discomfort of Frontiers: Public Archaeology and the Politics of Offa’s Dyke An interview with Keith Ray Exploring the politics and public archaeology of Offa’s Dyke, this telephone interview by Howard Williams (HW) was conducted on 9 March 2020. The interview captures different perspectives on Offa’s Dyke developing from Keith Ray’s (KR) keynote presentation at the 4th University of Chester Archaeology Student Conference. Introduction As lead author of the 2016 book Offa’s Dyke: Landscape and Hegemony in Eighth-Century Britain (Ray and Bapty 2016) and as a co-founder of the Offa’s Dyke Collaboratory, Keith has been a key figure in the recent revival of archaeological and historical interest in the Mercian frontier with Wales. He was formerly County Archaeologist for Herefordshire (1998–2014), and in that role was involved in the operation of a conservation network formed to support the work of the Offa’s Dyke Archaeological Management Officer (1999–2005). This was a post funded by Cadw and English Heritage and occupied by Ian Bapty, based jointly at the Clwyd-Powys Archaeological Trust offices at Welshpool and the Offa’s Dyke Centre, Knighton. The earlier part of Keith Ray’s conference presentation focused upon the contrasting perceptions of Offa’s Dyke in relation to Welsh identity through time. He then discussed the interim results of new field studies in the frontier lands and the idea that the dykes in the north were part of a wider Mercian strategy designed to dominate north-east Wales politically in the late eighth and early ninth centuries AD.

BURLAND, A FOOTHOLD IN WALES, 1819-25 According to the Liverpool District Synod Handbook 1929, Primitive Methodists came from Burland via Huxley to Chester. The area was chiefly opened in 1819. Burland became a branch of the Tunstall (Staffs) Circuit, and, according to the Primitive Methodist Magazine (1819 p. 251) the Branch extended "to the borders of Wales". It was made into a circuit in 1822. In his Introduction of Primitive Methodism into the City of Chester and its Progress up to 1859 (dated 1859), John Sadler, the father of Rev John Sadler, explains that "places were opened and societies formed around and adjacent to the metropolis of the County judging this to be the best plan to adopt before they assailed the City itself." The first missionary to Chester was Joseph Reynolds in 1820.

This representation is an OBJECTION to the Plan. We are of the opinion that the SAMDEV is NOT SOUND for the following reasons: • It has not been positively prepared : the target growth for housing within Weston Rhyn/Rhosweil does not meet any objectively assessed development and infrastructure requirements and is inconsistent with achieving sustainable development • It is not justified : the planned growth for Weston Rhyn / Rhosweil does not comprise the most appropriate strategy, when considered against the reasonable alternatives and it has not been based upon proportionate evidence base; • It is not effective : in that the plan will not deliver the growth or sites identified • It is not consistent with National Policy : in that it will not enable the delivery of sustainable development in accordance with NPPF The changes that could be made to overcome and address these concerns of unsoundness would be
