Page 11 Industry leaders at farming summit Page 3 From the chairman Whichever way you look at it, it’s been an extremely tough year for farmers.From the chairman The plight of dairy and sheep farmers has been national news and even the most resilient have been forced to take stock and re-evaluate what they do and how they do it, largely because of low prices, food scares and concerns over reduced support payments. The flooding in Cumbria and other parts of northern England in early December also left many people in need of immediate assistance. A month's rain fell in 24 hours causing terrible scenes. R.A.B.I will fast-track the application process Providing for farming flood victims so we can get money to where it is needed much quicker. some festive Our charity relies on the goodwill of thousands of fundraisers throughout England and Wales, many of whom are directly cheer connected to farming themselves. Often, people are driven to raise funds for us because they know someone who we have helped in the past or because they realise that one See page 6 day, through no fault of their own, they might need our help too. That is the nature of our industry, where circumstances and sheer bad luck can quickly spiral against you – be it disease, bad weather, illness or accidents. No one should ever feel ashamed for asking for help when they need it most. Paul Burrows, R.A.B.I’s CEO, represented the organisation at a summit meeting arranged by the Prince’s Countryside Adventures Fund. Many important figures from the farming world attended, including Defra minister George Eustice and His of Madge! Royal Highness Prince Charles himself. The support of the PCF is welcome and it is certainly important that farming’s leading organisations tackle key issues together in order to See page 14 maintain a view of the big picture. R.A.B.I, as an organisation, is very different to the one launched by John Mechi back in 1860. We only started helping working farmers in 1998 but last year we gave out around £300k in grants to this sector. From August to October 2015, R.A.B.I received 130 new Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution referrals and 76 of these were from working farmers.

  • The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575
    The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575 Elizabeth Murray A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts United Faculty of Theology The Melbourne College of Divinity October, 2007 Abstract Most English Reformation studies have been about the far north or the wealthier south-east. The poorer areas of the midlands and west have been largely passed over as less well-documented and thus less interesting. This thesis studying the north of the county of Shropshire demonstrates that the generally accepted model of the change from Roman Catholic to English Reformed worship does not adequately describe the experience of parishioners in that county. Acknowledgements I am grateful to Dr Craig D’Alton for his constant support and guidance as my supervisor. Thanks to Dr Dolly Mackinnon for introducing me to historical soundscapes with enthusiasm. Thanks also to the members of the Medieval Early Modern History Cohort for acting as a sounding board for ideas and for their assistance in transcribing the manuscripts in palaeography workshops. I wish to acknowledge the valuable assistance of various Shropshire and Staffordshire clergy, the staff of the Lichfield Heritage Centre and Lichfield Cathedral for permission to photograph churches and church plate. Thanks also to the Victoria & Albert Museum for access to their textiles collection. The staff at the Shropshire Archives, Shrewsbury were very helpful, as were the staff of the State Library of Victoria who retrieved all the volumes of the Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society. I very much appreciate the ongoing support and love of my family.

    Societal and Economic Impact Evaluation Relu (REFERENCE PS110020) PART TWO Submitted 18 June 2012 Dr. Laura R. Meagher, Technology Development Group RANGE OF TYPES OF IMPACTS (p.2-3) PROJECT CASE STUDIES (p.4-15) PROGRAMME CASE STUDY (p.16-21) ANALYSIS, PROGRAMME-LEVEL COMMUNICATIONS (p.22-28) VIGNETTE: MULTI-FACETED LEADERSHIP (p.29-13) KE OBSTACLES (p.32-33) LESSONS LEARNED BY PARTICIPANTS: ENHANCING IMPACTS (p.34-40) REFLECTIONS ON EVALUATION METHODOLOGY (p. 41-63) 1 RANGE OF TYPES OF IMPACTS Unusually, we have actually been able to elicit and compare researcher and stakeholder views as to types of impacts generated, through not only interviews but also quantifiable survey responses. For each of the five impact types (Conceptual, Instrumental, Capacity- building, Enduring Connectivity and Attitude/Culture Change), researchers and project-level stakeholders were asked about the role of their project, and researchers and programme- level stakeholders were asked about the role of the overall programme. In short, at both the Programme and the Project level, Researchers and Stakeholders saw a range of impacts as having been generated. The conclusion that Relu led to multiple, different types of impacts is robust. For instance, as noted in the Report, even the famously elusive Instrumental Impacts, seen by the lowest percentages, were still seen by a third (34.4%) of Project Stakeholder survey respondents and nearly half (48.6%) of Researchers as having been generated by projects and by over half (54.6%) of Programme Stakeholders and 83.3% of Researchers as having been generated by the Programme. Conceptual Impacts were seen by the highest percentages: as arising from projects by 70.6% of Project Stakeholders and 97.3% of Researchers, and as arising from the Programme by 95.3% of Programme Stakeholders and 88.9% of Researchers.

The county was contested during the First Civil War of 1642-6 and also saw armed conflict on a smaller scale during the Second Civil War of 1648. This detailed study provides a comprehensive bipartisan analysis of military endeavour, in terms of organisation and of the engagements fought. Drawing on numerous primary sources, it explores: leadership and administration; recruitment and the armed forces; military finance; supply and logistics; and the nature and conduct of the fighting.

  • An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: with a Catalogue of Artefacts
    An Archaeological Analysis of Anglo-Saxon Shropshire A.D. 600 – 1066: With a catalogue of artefacts By Esme Nadine Hookway A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MRes Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract The Anglo-Saxon period spanned over 600 years, beginning in the fifth century with migrations into the Roman province of Britannia by peoples’ from the Continent, witnessing the arrival of Scandinavian raiders and settlers from the ninth century and ending with the Norman Conquest of a unified England in 1066. This was a period of immense cultural, political, economic and religious change. The archaeological evidence for this period is however sparse in comparison with the preceding Roman period and the following medieval period. This is particularly apparent in regions of western England, and our understanding of Shropshire, a county with a notable lack of Anglo-Saxon archaeological or historical evidence, remains obscure. This research aims to enhance our understanding of the Anglo-Saxon period in Shropshire by combining multiple sources of evidence, including the growing body of artefacts recorded by the Portable Antiquity Scheme, to produce an over-view of Shropshire during the Anglo-Saxon period.

It offers a diverse range of scenery: from the lakes and rolling pasturelands around Ellesmere in the north, to the gaunt moorlands of the Clee Hills, with their stark industrial ruins, in the south; the densely wooded scarps of Wenlock Edge; or the straight, sandy lanes of the north-eastern heathlands, with their large arable fields and ‘big skys’.
