The LDHS was founded in 1983. Its purpose is to host a lecture and fieldwork programme on historical topics which extends from the local to the international. The LDHS also provides a forum for local research and record keeping. The aim of the Yearbook is to celebrate what we have achieved over the previous year. It gives me an opportunity to thank all the people who work so willingly to make the enjoyment of History part of the community life of Linton and the area around it. I hope you enjoy reading about the society and all its activities. If you wish to join us, you would be very welcome. Fiona Morison Chairman Linton and District History Society . April 2015.

THE IIXENHALI. BRANCH IIF the Llellefllli|Lslillie and Li|.Lll|L3estebsllllie BANM
Reprinted from: Gloucestershire Society for Industrial Archaeology Journal for 1972 pages 3-9 5 THE IIXENHALI. BRANCH IIF THE llEllEFlllI|lSlillIE AND li|.lll|l3ESTEBSlllliE BANM. In view of its length, the Hereford-Gloucester canal was remarkable in having only one branch. It began at Oxenhall, about ten miles from Gloucester, and was projected to serve part of the tiny Newent coalfield, a mile to the west.(l) ' L i There have been doubts as to the extent of its use, or even completion, but a scrutiny of the company minute books does suggest at least a few years of sporadic activity, as is shown later.i Coal pits existed in the area before 1775 (2) and provided important stimulus to the promoters of the canal, the Act for which was obtained in 1791. After a slow start, construction got underway in 1795 and at the end of the year the company began to consider e mining for its own purposes; permission to bore was sought and there was talk of ‘fire engines‘ for pumping. Success was first reported in April 1794 on the land of Mrs. Phillips at Lower House, Where pits had been ‘working with good profit‘ a year or two before. (5) Sinking a shaft took five months but the coal ‘not promising from its general appearance to be fit for any other purpose than 1ime—burning and the like‘, it was determined to sink another pit. y Soon afterwards, terms of one seventh royalty were agreed with Mrs. Phillips on the value of coal at the surface, the small coal being worth only about three shillings a ton. -
