  • Programme in Developmentv5 Addedad
    Shropshire LGBT History Month www.shrewsburyLGBThistory.org.uk Welcome to Back in Time 3 February 2018 Having had 2 fantastic Weekend Festivals in 2016 and 2017, this one is a bit different. Instead of one weekend packed full of LGBT Heritage, we thought a whole month would be better! And - instead of doing most of the organising ourselves, for 2018 we have invited others to put their LGBT History events into one programme, illustrating the breadth of activity and offering a wide choice for us all to engage with. Events also take place in a variety of locations and we’re delighted to include Oswestry and Telford in this brochure. We think that everyone has risen to the challenge and hope that you agree. This brochure includes presentations, workshops, performance, films and more. Each has its own booking method and they vary in price - if indeed there is any charge at all. We hope that everyone will support these events whole-heartedly and enjoy this very special Shropshire LGBT History Month - and encourage your friends, neighbours and family to come along and join in. For full details, late runners which missed this brochure and all links to booking tickets (where that is necessary) are on the website: www.shrewsburyLGBThistory.org.uk In association with Have a fantastic February The Salopian Rainbows [email protected] Shrewsbury LGBT History Festival was ‘adopted’ by SAND (Safe Ageing No Discrimination) in April 2016 and operates as a SAND Project with its own steering group [calling themselves The Salopian Rainbows], and bank account.

  • William Hazledine, Shropshire Ironmaster and Millwright
    WILLIAM HAZLEDINE, SHROPSHIRE IRONMASTER AND MILLWRIGHT: A RECONSTRUCTION OF HIS LIFE, AND HIS CONTRIBUTION TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENGINEERING, 1780 - 1840 by ANDREW PATTISON A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY Ironbridge Institute Institute of Archaeology and Antiquity, College of Arts and Law, University of Birmingham October 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT The name of William Hazledine (1763 – 1840) is almost unknown, even to industrial historians. This is surprising, since he provided the ironwork for five world ‘firsts’, and he was described at the time of his death as ‘the first [foremost] practical man in Europe’. The five structures are Ditherington Flax Mill, Shrewsbury (the first iron- framed building in the world), Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (still one of the longest and highest in Britain), lock gates on the Caledonian Canal, a new genre of cast-iron arch bridges, and Menai Suspension Bridge. This thesis aims to rediscover Hazledine’s life and work, and place it in the context of social and industrial history. It particularly concentrates on the development of cast iron technology in Shropshire, which has been less studied than the work of earlier ironmasters, such as the Darbys and John Wilkinson.
