Analysing Property Rents in Medieval Gloucester Catherine Casson and Mark Casson Abstract Although medieval rentals have been extensively studied, few scholars have used them to analyse variations in the rents paid on individual properties within a town. It has been claimed that medieval rents did not reflect economic values or market forces, but were set according to social and political rather than economic criteria, and remained ossified at customary levels. This paper uses hedonic regression methods to test whether property rents in medieval Gloucester were influenced by classic economic factors such as the location and use of a property. It investigates both rents and local rates (landgavel), and explores the relationship between the two.

    Plans for 375 Civil war commemoration 2018 The Siege of Gloucester was an engagement in the First English Civil War. It took place between 10 August and 5 September 1643, between the defending Parliamentarian garrison of Gloucester and the besieging army of King Charles I. The siege ended with the arrival of a relieving Parliamentarian army under the Earl of Essex. The Royalist forces withdrew, having sustained heavy casualties and had several cannon disabled as a result of sallies made by the defenders. 5th September 2018 will be the 375th anniversary of the day the siege of Gloucester was lifted. This is annually commemorated during “Gloucester Day” celebrations which are generally held on the first Saturday in September. #Gloucester375 commemorations To commemorate the 375th anniversary of the lifting of the siege of Gloucester there a number of initiatives that are being discussed with a range of partners across the city which would take place, appropriately across the two weeks of the History Festival and Heritage open days including · Enhanced Gloucester Day celebrations (some re-enactment -possibly Col Massey and a few troops) · Series of Talks at History festival Blackfriars and City voices · Programme of Civil war walking tours (Civic Trust and others) · Civil war Re-enactment in Gloucester park involving 200 reenactors and horses and living camp, possibly a ticketed all day event 15/16th September (Sunday main focus) · 15/16th September living camp in bowling green Gloucester · Heritage Open Days (HODs) 5th/6th September, themed around Civil War, with costumes provided 6th/7th September · Also during HODs re-enactment of scenes depicting stories of Gloucester from the civil war such as the canon ball that rolled down Southgate and the famous pig that was taken around the city walls · Special brochure explaining history of siege of Gloucester, civil war and Col.
