LONDON : HARRISON AND SONS, PRINTERS IN ORDINARY TO HER MAJESTY, ST. martin's lane. ^omttsd (Record ^ocie^^» REPORT. Again in this the third year of its existence, I have the pleasure of being able to give a good report of the state and prospects of our Society. The number of its members has increased from 121 to 134, and the finances, as will be seen in the annexed account, are in a satisfactory state. It may be as well, however, to note that it will probably be necessary, as time goes on, to spend more money for transcriptions than has been the case hitherto. Through the generosity of our Editors, who have given not only their time and labour to the usual work of an Editor, but have also provided the texts, the Society Las been saved very heavy expenses, but it can hardly be expected that this will always be so. Our next volume will be a set of Churchwardens' Accounts from several parishes, chiefly between the years 1450 and 1570. It is already in progress under the Editorship of Bishop Hobhouse, and promises to be a volume of peculiar interest in the vivid picture it will give of the actual life of our country parishes in past times.

Collinson is usually right in ix b the modern names he to the Manors described in gives Domesday ; his identifications are on the whole very good indeed and praise- worthy, and it is plain that great pains have been taken by whoever him in this of his work but he is and helped part ; sometimes wrong, we have no means of testing when this is so.

However, the good news is that we are now allowed a measure of singing in church, albeit by a small group.

  • THE BATH REGION from Late Prehistory to the Middle Ages Mick
    THE BATH REGION from Late Prehistory to the Middle Ages Mick Aston Introduction This essay is concerned with a city in its region over a long period. Bath is a good example to study, for two reasons. Firstly, the city itself and the region around have been well examined by anti­ quarians over several centuries - very many sites have been located from late prehistoric to medieval times. Much of the early landscape also remains in the form of earthworks and abandoned field systems. Secondly, Bath itself has been occupied for a long, but reasonably certain· length of time. Unlike most towns and cities, something is known of the origins of the place and how and why it developed. Its close relationship with its hinterland over two millennia has, however, not been studied and that is the aim of this essay. The Physical Background Bath lies at the southern end of the Cotswolds, on the river Avon and 30km inland from the Severn estuary. The surrounding region is very 'unEnglish' in terms of its scenery. The city lies in a deep valley with steep slopes all around, rising to almost level flat-topped plateaux at Lansdown (to the north-west), Charmy Down (to the north-east), Bathampton, Claverton and Combe Downs (to the east and south-east), and Odd Down and Southdown (to the south and south-west). There is little flat land in the stream and river valleys in the Bath region, except at Bath itself and around Bathford and Bathampton. The sides of the valleys are steep, with deep combes everywhere.
