  • Gloucestershire Castles
    Gloucestershire Archives Take One Castle Gloucestershire Castles The first castles in Gloucestershire were built soon after the Norman invasion of 1066. After the Battle of Hastings, the Normans had an urgent need to consolidate the land they had conquered and at the same time provide a secure political and military base to control the country. Castles were an ideal way to do this as not only did they secure newly won lands in military terms (acting as bases for troops and supply bases), they also served as a visible reminder to the local population of the ever-present power and threat of force of their new overlords. Early castles were usually one of three types; a ringwork, a motte or a motte & bailey; A Ringwork was a simple oval or circular earthwork formed of a ditch and bank. A motte was an artificially raised earthwork (made by piling up turf and soil) with a flat top on which was built a wooden tower or ‘keep’ and a protective palisade. A motte & bailey was a combination of a motte with a bailey or walled enclosure that usually but not always enclosed the motte. The keep was the strongest and securest part of a castle and was usually the main place of residence of the lord of the castle, although this changed over time. The name has a complex origin and stems from the Middle English term ‘kype’, meaning basket or cask, after the structure of the early keeps (which resembled tubes). The name ‘keep’ was only used from the 1500s onwards and the contemporary medieval term was ‘donjon’ (an apparent French corruption of the Latin dominarium) although turris, turris castri or magna turris (tower, castle tower and great tower respectively) were also used.

See Appendix A: Classification of External Visits for information which will help you make the correct classification for your proposed visit/activity. The ‘what procedure do I follow for approval’ flowchart will also help you decide what classification and approval process is required. • Put together an appropriate proposal – A simple paper application can be completed for local, non-adventurous (category A) using the Visit Information Collection Sheet. For all other activities, utilise the External Visits Management module, available online through the EEC website – see https://www.eeclive.co.uk/public/plogon.asp?AID=14). • The EEC website can also be utilised for series visit proposals. A ‘series’ approval (where the same activity is planned to take place on a number of occasions or on various dates in a specified period) can be completed on a single application to avoid repetition and reduce the number of applications required. Further information on series approvals is available in the document entitled Outdoor Education and External Visits: Notification/Approval/Endorsement System published in the Organisation of External Visits/Activities section of the Outdoor Education & External Visits website.

    Hello ...and welcome to this 90th anniversary issue of The Journey. In 1930, the collective will of a group of far-sighted men and women brought YHA to life. At the heart of their plans was an organisation that would bring adventure and opportunity into the lives of those who needed it most. It’s an ethos we still stand by – and today more than ever. We’re incredibly proud of everything we’ve achieved over the past nine decades, and we’re doubly determined to make the next chapter of our story a powerful force for good. In these pages you’ll find memories, hope, inspiration and a positive outline for the future.
