A RYMP C G W D L LE MA LA AN, ’ EDITORS PREFACE . T has been a labour Of love to edit the following ff 3 pages , for I have a deep a ection for the memory of the Author and a genuine admiration for his work . The bulky portfolio which has passed into my hands containing notes and letters , testifies to the infinite care and labour which he devoted to the task which he Of Of . set before him , writing a history Bishopthorpe Certainly he spared no pains to Obtain information from - every available source , and Dr . Auden , my fellow labourer in this good work , can bear Witness to the absolute authenticity and accuracy of all his quotations from those who had the best claim to be consulted on the matter . It might seem at first sight that the little Village Of Bishopthorpe and its one stately residence was not a very large theme on which to write a book ; but he has elicited SO n many details concerni g the personages , manners and Of customs , and events days gone by, that the pages are replete with interest ; and he seems to bring before us in his simple but graphic language the Characters of those who were no mean actors in the great historical drama of Of the past , as well as to elaborate the ordinary details Of the daily life generations before us , which enable us to realize who and what manner Of men lived amidst SO ff circumstances and surroundings di erent to our own . ’ DIT R P vi E O S REFACE . Of Indeed , he shows us that Bishopthorpe was the focus very much that aff ected the condition Of Church and State , and enables us to become acquainted with the real dispositions and notions Of many whose names are simply mentioned on the pages of history , and whose share in the great events which decided the condition Of the Church and Nation we have hitherto scarcely realized . Truly his industrious and faithful pen has invested scenes , so O f w familiar to some us , ith an interest which they have never had before , and will no doubt draw many who are t hitherto strangers , to visit a place which hey would otherwise have passed by in their search for what is attractive and sensational . The previous Church , built by Archbishop Drummond , 0 0 according to the taste of his days , for 1 ;3, 5 , and embellished with a new west front by Archbishop Harcourt Of 1 0 0 Of at the cost £ , 5 , was never worthy its position , and had gradually become dilapidated , and owing to the Of insecure condition the river bank , liable to slip into the 1 8 w h x stream . In 99 it was pulled down , it the e ception Of the west wall and bellcote , and the present Church was Of erected by subscription on the west side the high road , from designs by Mr . Hodgson Fowler, and consecrated on ’ Of am e s s . e S. ] Day the following year His Grace the pres nt Archbishop (who had already beautifully restored the Chapel in the Palace) added the Tower as a thank - Offering Of - on the completion the twenty fifth year O f his episcopate . ’ DIT P E ORS REFACE . The late Canon Keble took a lively interest in this good ’ work , but died shortly after its completion , on S . Matthias 1 0 Day, 9 3, and his body was the first that was laid to rest under the east wall Of the new and beautiful House Of God . That spot will certainly acquire a more solemn and reverent recognition from all who visit the God’ s acre which surrounds the new and beautiful Church . Even O f that grassy mound , ever bright with the floral f erings of those who loved and knew him while on earth , and beneath which rests all that was mortal Of one Of the truest servants of the Lord , whose bright example , loving friendship , and faithful ministrations , will never cease to provoke the grateful recogn ition Of those who knew him here on earth , and who hope to be with him in the paradise of God whither he has passed on before us . - R T .

  • The Walls but on the Rampart Underneath and the Ditch Surrounding Them
    A walk through 1,900 years of history The Bar Walls of York are the finest and most complete of any town in England. There are five main “bars” (big gateways), one postern (a small gateway) one Victorian gateway, and 45 towers. At two miles (3.4 kilometres), they are also the longest town walls in the country. Allow two hours to walk around the entire circuit. In medieval times the defence of the city relied not just on the walls but on the rampart underneath and the ditch surrounding them. The ditch, which has been filled in almost everywhere, was once 60 feet (18.3m) wide and 10 feet (3m) deep! The Walls are generally 13 feet (4m) high and 6 feet (1.8m) wide. The rampart on which they stand is up to 30 feet high (9m) and 100 feet (30m) wide and conceals the earlier defences built by Romans, Vikings and Normans. The Roman defences The Normans In AD71 the Roman 9th Legion arrived at the strategic spot where It took William The Conqueror two years to move north after his the rivers Ouse and Foss met. They quickly set about building a victory at the Battle of Hastings in 1066.

However, when William marched north to quell the potential for rebellion his advance caused such alarm that he entered the city The first defences were simple: a ditch, an embankment made of unopposed.

  • U DDPA Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn 13Th Cent
    Hull History Centre: Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn U DDPA Papers of the Palmes Family of Naburn 13th cent. - 1906 Biographical Background: The Palmes family traced its pedigree back to Manfred Palmes who was living in 1140 and had lands in Taunton, Somerset. It is a family unique in being able to trace an unbroken inheritance from son to son from the twelfth century to 1974, with only one exception in the eighteenth century. In 1226 lands at Naburn in East Yorkshire were assigned to William Palmes by Richard de Watervill, the brother of Maud de Watervill, William Palmes's wife. The demesne lordship of Naburn then descended in the Palmes family to the twentieth century (Baines, Old Naburn, p. 45; Allison, History of York East Riding, iii, p. 77; Foster, Pedigrees, iii). Naburn is about three miles south of York and the Palmes family built a manor house on the east bank of the River Ouse. The house was first mentioned in 1345 and had eight hearths in 1672. A drawing of circa 1720 indicates a two storey house, three bays in length with attic windows in high gables. In other words, the family was comfortably-wealthy, although it was not until the early sixteenth century that any of the male members of the family held public office. William Palmes, who was living in the middle of the fifteenth century, married Ellen Rocliffe, whose father was one of the barons of the exchequer. She provided him with three male heirs and a daughter before taking the veil during his lifetime, in 1479.

To find the history summaries and illustrative materials for the York Castle Project which Helen Weinstein and the team at Historyworks have provided to share knowledge to support those wanting more information about the York Castle Area, please find many pages of chronological summaries about the site and descriptions of the interpretations offered by the stakeholders here: http://historyworks.tv/projects/ Professor Helen Weinstein, Organizer of Learning Events about the York Castle Area to mark HMD The afternoon of presentations was opened by Helen Weinstein, public historian and Director of Historyworks. Helen began by welcoming the large number of people that had returned from a walking tour of the castle area with an introduction to what the proceeding talks would offer. The event had been created as a result of a growing interest from the citizens of York and the wider Jewish communities outside of the city in Clifford’s Tower and its cultural and historical significance.Helen then spoke about some of the misconceptions about Jewish life in York, in 1 2 particular the belief that a Cherem had been placed on York following the 1190 massacre, forbidding people of Jewish faith to live within the city, particularly not to overnight or eat within the precincts of the City Walls.

Komar: Two claims to Fleta's Honors TWO CLAIMS TO FLETA'S 1OORS TWO CLAIMS TO FLETA'S HONORS. BoaRIs M. KoAxA.* Selden in his "Dissertatio ad Fletam"' published a copy of an interesting document the original of which is now lost. It is a memorandum in Exchequer, which tells us that on February 2, 1277, Thomas Bek loaned Henry de Bratton's "Summa de Legibus et Consuetudinibus Angliae" to Robert de Scardeburgh. Assuming, then, that all the other conditions required by the science of modern historical research are satisfied, we have here what might be termed a presumption that one of the above mentioned persons may have been the author of Fleta, since Fleta is an abridgement of Bratton's work written around the time mentioned in said Exchequer mem- •orandum. Mr. F. W. Nichols in the introduction to his translation of Britton has shown conclusively that Fleta was finished shortly after 1290, or probably towards the end of that year,2 for in the summer of 1290 it was still in the course of preparation.

There have, not unexpectedly, been considerable archival losses too, as some later vacancy inventories at York make clear: the Durham sede vacante register of Alexander Neville (1381) and accompanying visitation records; the York sede vacante register after Neville’s own translation in 1388; the register of Thomas Arundel (only the register of his vicars-general survives today), and the register of Robert Waldby (likewise only his vicar-general’s register is now extant) have all long disappeared.1 Some of these would also have included records of ordinations, now missing from the chronological sequence.

  • THE REFORMATION in LEICESTER and LEICESTERSHIRE, C.1480–1590 Eleanor Hall
    THE REFORMATION IN LEICESTER AND LEICESTERSHIRE, c.1480–1590 Eleanor Hall Since its arrival in England, never did Christianity undergo such a transformation as that of the Reformation. By the end of the sixteenth century the official presence of Catholicism had almost entirely disappeared in favour of Protestantism, the permanent establishment of which is still the institutional state religion. This transformation, instigated and imposed on the population by a political elite, had a massive impact on the lives of those who endured it. In fact, the progression of these religious developments depended on the compliance of the English people, which in some regions was often absent. Indeed, consideration must be given to the impact of the Reformation on these localities and social groups, in which conservatism and nostalgia for the traditional faith remained strong. In spite of this, the gradual acceptance of Protestantism by the majority over time allowed its imposition and the permanent establishment of the Church of England. Leicestershire is a county in which significant changes took place. This paper examines these changes and their impact on, and gradual acceptance by, the various religious orders, secular clergy, and the laity in the town and county. Important time and geographical comparisons will be drawn in consideration of the overall impact of the Reformation, and the extent to which both clergy and laity conformed to the religious changes imposed on them, and managed to retain their religious devotion in the process. INTRODUCTION The English Reformation is one of the periods in history that attracts a high level of interest and debate.
