  • Cotswold Landmarks
    Cotswold Landmarks Castles in The Cotswolds are not rare, in fact the region has some of the most beautiful castles in England and many are top tourist attractions in the area. Although Blenheim is not a castle, it is still an incredibly beautiful landmark which attracts thousands of visitors every year. The Cotswolds have some of England’s most well-known castles, many that have royal connections and fascinating historical stories. The Cotswolds stretches across the Cotswold hills and is in the South-West of England, just a short trip taking 1 hour and 40 minutes on a train from London. The region is steeped in history and was once the largest supplier of English wool during the Medieval times. The Cotswold hills are magical with breath-taking views across to faraway places such as the Welsh mountains. Berkeley Castle Berkeley Castle is still owned by the Berkeley family and remains a stunning example of English heritage in the beautiful Cotswold countryside. Berkeley Castle was built in 1153 and has welcomed many royals over the centuries including Henry VIII, Edward II, Elizabeth I and the late Queen Mother. There are some incredible and historical stories about the castle, including where the murder of Edward II took place and apparently, Midsummers Night’s Dream by Shakespeare, was written for a Berkeley family wedding within the castle. It is also believed that the last court jester known in England died at Berkeley Castle when he fell from the minstrel’s gallery in the Great Hall. Berkeley Castle is a fine example of typical architecture and English stately culture and is a charming aspect to the beauty of The Cotswolds.

THORNTON Bilkent University, Ankara E-mail: [email protected] This article evaluates ordination lists preserved in bishops’ registers from late medieval England as evidence for the monastic orders, with special reference to religious houses in the diocese of Worcester, from to . By comparing almost , ordination records collected from registers from Worcester and neighbouring dioceses with ‘conven- tual’ lists, it is concluded that over per cent of monks and canons are not named in the extant ordination lists. Over half of these omissions are arguably due to structural gaps in the surviving ordination lists, but other, non-structural factors may also have contributed. ith the dispersal and destruction of the archives of religious houses following their dissolution in the late s, many docu- W ments that would otherwise facilitate the prosopographical study of the monastic orders in late medieval England and Wales have been irre- trievably lost.

APOLOGIES: Cllr. Stephen Davies Kevin Lee Rachel Addinall David Scriven Angela Scriven Hena Rahman 2. DECLARATION OF INTEREST IN ANY MATTER ON THE AGENDA: Cllr. Harvie stated that the solar farm development will be at the bottom of his drive and therefore he declared an interest. 3. MINUTES OF THE SEPTEMBER MEETING: The minutes were agreed and signed as a true record of the meeting. 4. MATTERS ARISING: The request for funding from Cllr. Davies has been submitted 5. POLICE REPORT: PCSO Addinall provided the following update by email: I did research on incidents from the last meeting until last Fridays date and compared it to last year. There were no crimes reported last year but there were 2 this year. These were an isolated incident and obviously due to data protection I cannot give you the full details but can confirm that they are not crimes that affect the general public like car crime or burglaries. On that note unfortunately burglaries are on the increase across the whole of the Gloucestershire constabulary but Gloucester south have not been affected by this crime compared to other areas. However, our normal crime prevention advise still stands.
