Assessment of the documentary and cartographic evidence 30 3 1. Bernwood Forest Records in the Public Record Office The Public Record Office holds a large number of documents which relate to the visitation of the royal forests of England by the king’s justices of the forest in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. The documents record the names of those individuals who were accused of breaches of forest law and the nature of their offence. The two most common offences were the killing of deer and the felling of trees. In the thirteenth century breaches of forest law were usually investigated by justices on eyre. In the fourteenth century these were generally replaced by inquests. Throughout the Middle Ages the local forest officials made periodic inspections of the woodland in their forests known as regards. Perambulations of the forest were conducted whenever changes to the boundaries of the forest were being considered by the king. All these documents were written in Latin on parchment rolls. Those surviving for Bernwood Forest are listed below and a sample have been translated. The number and variety of these records is not sufficient to make Bernwood one of the best documented royal forests in England. Nevertheless, enough survives to enable a relatively detailed study to be made of the impact of the forest on the settlements within its bounds. In particular, it is possible to determine which vills were most frequently summoned to investigate breaches of forest law (see section 2). This evidence can be interpreted in one of two ways. Either these places represent the parts of the forest where offences were most likely to occur, or they reveal the practical limits of the jurisdiction of the king’s forest officials, whatever the theoretical extent of the forest may have been.

Vills summoned to inquire into breaches of forest law, 1255 Representatives of the four vills closest to the scene of a breach of forest law were required to make an inquiry into the circumstances of the offence if these were unclear. The distribution of these vills may give an impression of the practical limits of forest jurisdiction at the time of the eyres.

  • The Hidation of Buckinghamshire. Keith Bailey
    THE HIDA TION OF BUCKINGHAMSHIRE KEITH BAILEY In a pioneering paper Mr Bailey here subjects the Domesday data on the hidation of Buckinghamshire to a searching statistical analysis, using techniques never before applied to this county. His aim is not explain the hide, but to lay a foundation on which an explanation may be built; to isolate what is truly exceptional and therefore calls for further study. Although he disclaims any intention of going beyond analysis, his paper will surely advance our understanding of a very important feature of early English society. Part 1: Domesday Book 'What was the hide?' F. W.

  • Chearsley Parish Assets – Natural and Historic Environment
    CHEARSLEY PARISH ASSETS – NATURAL AND HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT 1. Introduction The parish of Chearsley is in Buckinghamshire near to the Oxfordshire border and is in the Aylesbury Vale District. It is a relatively small parish of some 960 acres (390 ha). The parish has a population of about 580 persons and a housing stock of some 220 houses. The village of Chearsley dates back to Saxon times and has medieval church dating from the 14th century (St. Nicholas). Chearsley is an Anglo-Saxon place-name (Cerdeslai or Cerdicesleah) and, according to Ted Hooton (1994), a minor Roman road may have come through what is now the village of Chearsley. 2. Landscape The landscape of Chearsley is based on ancient limestone, a fossilized vertebra was discovered in Sam’s hole, a popular swimming spot in the river Thame. This was discovered in the 1960s and is possibly a dinosaur or an icthysaur vertebra from the Kimmeridge clay layer. This ancient limestone and its associated sands, loams and clays give rise to the beautiful rolling countryside that we know today and its farmland and woodland that make up such a wonderful landscape. The current field system is based on the open field system as in 1763 (Hooton, 1989) and these open field boundaries can still be seen today even though the modern field system is based on the changes following the Enclosures Act of 1805. Today, the majority of the land is farmed by four principal farmers who maintain the current field boundaries, ditches and drainage systems. A few fields in the parish still exhibit the old, traditional ridge and furrow system, for example the lower end of Bury (or Berry) field on Manor Farm.

This is an area of great natural beauty which attracts visitors and walkers from the surrounding areas. The churches have, in many ways, drawn closer together during the period of lockdown. The Associate Minister and a lay leader have led a weekly service of compline as well as signposting to other online services. The many who participated from across the benefice have begun to get to know each other better – a positive sign for the future of the benefice. The PCCs have engaged positively with deanery and diocesan advisers during the vacancy and have been open to exploring a more sustainable model of ministry for the future of the benefice. As you will see from the profile, they have identified a number of significant strengths, including their relationship with local schools and the level of support for the churches from within the village communities.
