  • Roman Britain
    Roman Britain Hadrian s Wall - History Vallum Hadriani - Historia “ Having completely transformed the soldiers, in royal fashion, he made for Britain, where he set right many things and - the rst to do so - drew a wall along a length of eighty miles to separate barbarians and Romans. (The Augustan History, Hadrian 11.1)” Although we have much epigraphic evidence from the Wall itself, the sole classical literary reference for Hadrian having built the Wall is the passage above, wrien by Aelius Spartianus towards the end of the 3rd century AD. The original concept of a continuous barrier across the Tyne-Solway isthmus, was devised by emperor Hadrian during his visit to Britain in 122AD. His visit had been prompted by the threat of renewed unrest with the Brigantes tribe of northern Britain, and the need was seen to separate this war-like race from the lowland tribes of Scotland, with whom they had allied against Rome during recent troubles. Components of The Wall Hadrian s Wall was a composite military barrier which, in its nal form, comprised six separate elements; 1. A stone wall fronted by a V-shaped ditch. 2. A number of purpose-built stone garrison forti cations; Forts, Milecastles and Turrets. 3. A large earthwork and ditch, built parallel with and to the south of the Wall, known as the Vallum. 4. A metalled road linking the garrison forts, the Roman Military Way . 5. A number of outpost forts built to the north of the Wall and linked to it by road. 6. A series of forts and lookout towers along the Cumbrian coast, the Western Sea Defences .

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath.

  • Introduction
    Introduction I cannot, in all honesty, claim to be a believer in reincarnation. I am neither for nor against the concept, though I find the entire notion of having lived on this Earth in other forms fascinating. I want to believe in it; but having no clear proof that I have, in previous lifetimes, been a cow, a wolf, a cockroach, or a king, I prefer to tell myself, “I do not know.” And yet I cannot explain why, since my earliest recollections, I’ve found myself inexorably drawn to old stone structures—to stone houses, old bridges and monuments, colonial-era walls, and, most of all, to castles. Of course, the irony of these early childhood memories is that I was born and raised in Flushing, Queens—a place not immediately associated with ancient armies and soaring ramparts. I simply knew that whenever I was in the presence of any historic site, I felt a powerful, secret con- nection to that structure. Something welling within my subconscious would stop me in my place: “Yes,” my inner voice would tell me, “this is correct; this is where I belong.” On school field trips to the famous Cloisters, in Fort Tryon Park, Manhattan, I would quietly slip away from my teacher and classmates and walk reverently toward the huge central tower, with its expansive perimeter walls. I would make my way to the west-facing stoneworks and gaze out at the Hudson River below, then across to the rising cliffs of the Palisades, in New Jersey. I’d let myself drift away, pretend I was one of my childhood heroes, the legendary Spanish knight Rodrigo Diaz de Bivar—known to history as “El Cid Compeador,” the Lord Champion.

  • William the Conqueror Vs. Hereward the Wake
    Ely Castle William the Conqueror vs. Hereward the Wake William the Conqueror William of Normandy, known as William the Conqueror, was the King of England from 1066 until his death in 1087. Although he was born into a French family, he became one of the most influential kings in English history! William I built a motte & bailey castle in Ely in around 1070 after it became a safe place for the fighting English forces against the Norman invasion. William I also built a castle at Aldreth, about 10 miles away & used both of these castles to defend Ely. Hereward the Wake Born c.1035, Hereward is the hero of many Norman and English legends! Hereward was a local 'theign' or servant who was exiled by Edward the Confessor. While he was exiled he fought as a mercenary, a type of professional soldier for foreign armies in Flanders, France. He returned to England to find his land had been seized and given to Normans. Hereward led a group of rebels against the Normans & he was concerned that the riches of nearby Peterborough Abbey would be taken by the Normans too. He led a successful raid of the Abbey with the Danes. As William I & the Normans advanced towards Ely, Hereward & the Earl of Northumberland prepared to defend the Isle of Ely. William I was able to capture the island and Hereward & his rebels dispersed. Ely Castle The castle in Ely was originally a wooden motte and bailey castle. It was re-fortified in the 12th Century before being finally destroyed in the mid 13th Century.

  • The French Lake Champlain Fleet and the Contest for the Control of the Lake, 1742–1760
    The French Lake Champlain Fleet and the Contest for the Control of the Lake, 1742–1760 The intent of the designers of the French fleet was never to seriously challenge England for naval supremacy over the waterway, but instead to construct an opportunistic squadron, a scout fleet that, if managed correctly, could dictate the terms of any engagement and withdraw once it found itself at a disadvantage. By MICHAEL G. LARAMIE lattsburgh, Valcour Island, Arnold’s Bay: these are common place names along Lake Champlain that conjure up images of PBritish and American warships long since past. And under- standably so. The campaigns of these fl eets have been well documented over the last two centuries, and such names as Arnold, Pringle, and Macdonough fi ll the pages of numerous texts on the subject. The fi rst warships to operate on the lake, however, have not been so fortunate. For whatever reasons, the members of this original band of French ves- sels, and their commanders, the fi rst to ply the waters of Lake Cham- plain, have faded into obscurity, and it seems fi tting that a few words should be said on their behalf. A native of Vermont, Michael G. Laramie is an independent historian with a focus on the colonial confl icts of North America. His article, “Colonel William Romer: A Royal Engineer’s Odyssey in New York and New England” appeared in The Journal of America’s Military Past 36:2 (Spring/Summer 2011); and he is the author of The European Invasion of North America: Colonial Conflict along the Hudson-Champlain Corridor, 1609–1760 (2012).
