In recent years a considerable amount of interest has been shown by members in the history of individual villages and in Lindale a separate group was established, with many enthusiastic members, to continue research. In this newsletter we feature Cark, Cartmel, Flookburgh, Newton-in-Cartmel, Lindale and Field Broughton – hopefully showing all readers a slightly different look at each. Our two summer walks, which both start at High Newton, will reveal the fascinating and widespread flax industry as well as the interesting vernacular style of the buildings in that village. There has been such enthusiasm for these walks that, despite holding each walk twice, I fear we cannot, unfortunately, accommodate any more members. At the back of the Newsletter you will find brief details of our remaining two lectures for this season. As usual, the final meeting this year will be our Annual General Meeting in November. In addition to the formal (and brief) business we shall have other ideas which will be included in the next Newsletter. And last but, certainly, not least, we are delighted to report we now have a record number of members: thank you to all.

  • SCHEMES for the RECLAMATION of LAND from the SEA in NORTH LANCASHIRE DURING the EIGHTEENTH and NINETEENTH CENTURIES Read 20 Febr
    SCHEMES FOR THE RECLAMATION OF LAND FROM THE SEA IN NORTH LANCASHIRE DURING THE EIGHTEENTH AND NINETEENTH CENTURIES BY WILLIAM ROLLINSON, M.A. Read 20 February 1964 OME of the earliest schemes for the reclamation of land S from the sea in North Lancashire were implemented by the monks of Furness Abbey in the thirteenth century. In the fervour of Cistercian colonisation and agricultural reclamation, several areas on Walney Island were reclaimed by the construction of embankments or dykes of beach pebbles. There is some evidence to suggest that several of these dykes were constructed on both the west and east coasts of the island, but only the great Biggar Dyke on the east coast remains today, the west coast embank­ ments having been destroyed by marine erosion. Extending for almost a mile north-west of the village of Biggar, the dyke protected part of the east coast of Walney and prevented inundation of low-lying ground during spring tides. During the medieval period it was maintained and repaired by the monastic tenants in Furness, but after the dissolution of the abbey in 1537 the responsibility was assumed by the Crown, and in 1564 by the inhabitants of Walney. In spite of such an early and promising beginning, the progress of land reclamation and agricultural development was retarded after the dissolution, and it was not until the eighteenth century and the period of the Agricultural Revolution that interest was again aroused. Under the stimulus of a rapidly growing urban market and a rise in the price of grain during the Napoleonic wars, the period between the mid-eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries was one of agricultural expansion and improvement.

  • London Charity Beneficiaries, C. 1800-1834: Questions of Agency
    London Charity Beneficiaries, c. 1800-1834: Questions of Agency Megan Clare Webber Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 18 May 2016 i Abstract In recent decades historians have ‘discovered’ agency in a wide range of geographical and temporal contexts, amongst many different types of actor. This dissertation employs the concept of agency to dissect the dynamics of power in early nineteenth-century London charities. Concurrently, it uses charity to test the potential applications of agency as a historical concept and as a tool for historical analysis. Through case studies of five different types of charity in early nineteenth-century London, this dissertation explores the varied ways in which plebeians exercised their agency. The case studies engage with current definitions of agency —intentional action, resistance, the defence of rights and customs, exerting control over one’s own life, autonomy, strategy, choice, and voice— and test the boundaries of the concept, proposing different ways in which scholars might characterise agency. This dissertation not only examines how the poor exerted their agency, but also how philanthropists conceptualised the agency of the poor. Although agency had a different set of meanings in the early nineteenth century than it does today, Georgian commentators nevertheless discussed the same phenomena that historians today label as agency. This dissertation considers how philanthropists attempted to mould the agency of their beneficiaries and how the agency of the poor shaped charitable organisations. For all its prevalence, agency is an under-theorised and problematic concept. There is no consensus about what agency is or how to locate it.

  • Lancashire Coastal Way ! ! ! 6 a Map 1 ! !
    LANCASHIRE Coastal Way The Coastal way is a 137 mile footpath following the coastline between Merseyside and Cumbria. The Lancashire coastline, much of which is of international ornithological interest comprises a variety of landscapes from the distinctive limestone scenery of Arnside / Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, through grazed saltmarshes and agricultural land, the seaside resorts of Morecambe and Blackpool and the Fylde coast, as well as the major river estuaries of the Lune, Wyre and Ribble. Walking the Coastal Way will enable you to relive history as well as observe todayÊs coastal activities. See the small creeks home to early inhabitants and the relics of coastal fortifications and early Christianity. Witness the evidence of early industries based on iron, salt and limestone, alongside the modern businesses of British Aerospace, Nuclear Electric, British Gas and ICI. The busy harbours at Fleetwood, Heysham and Glasson Dock contrast sharply with the holiday atmosphere of the seaside resorts. Above all the coastal way provides spectacular views of Morecambe Bay, the Bowland Fells and the Lake District, and the opportunity, particularly in spring and autumn, to observe the large variety of waders and seabirds for which the Lancashire coast and estuaries are internationally important. ENJOY YOUR WALK: But please remember to follow these simple requests: • KEEP TO THE COASTAL WAY PATH. • FASTEN ALL GATES BEHIND YOU. • KEEP YOUR DOG ON A LEAD. • TAKE YOUR LITTER HOME WITH YOU. HORSES AND BIKES ARE ONLY ALLOWED ON BRIDLEWAYS. THESE ARE MARKED BY BLUE ARROWS.
