The person who deserves it most is Docent Gillis Kristensson, my supervisor from the very beginning. He suggested that I should write about words meaning „boundary‟ in English place-names and set me going. He has helped me at all stages of my work, and it has been a real privilege to have had such a brilliant supervisor. His deep learning and great wisdom and the kind interest he has always shown me have meant more to me than words can express, and had he not been so encouraging and patient and understanding my thesis would never have been finished. Thank you, Gillis, with all my heart! The late Professor Olof Arngart had retired from his chair in English before I started to work on my thesis, but I have pleasant memories of him, and it has been inspiring to be a place-name student at the University where he made such important contributions to the knowledge of English place-names. I am also grateful to his successor, Professor Jan Svartvik, for the interest he has shown in my studies, and to the present holder of the chair, Carita Paradis, for all the help she has given me at the final stages of my work. Her support has really been most valuable. My thanks are further due to the late Dr Stig Carlsson, the late Dr Jan Jönsjö, Fil.mag, Anna Brita Adrian, Dr Örjan Svensson, Docent Björn Wallner, and the late Dr Nils Wrander, all of them members of Gillis Kristensson‟s name research group at the English Department, Lund University, for all good discussions and for their interest in my work. I have received a great deal of help from Mrs Margaret Greenwood Petersson, for which I am very grateful. The late Professor Bertil Ejder, Lund, kindly put his vast knowledge of Scandinavian place-names at my disposal and gave me valuable literature references. He also introduced me to Docent Gillian Fellows Jensen, Copenhagen, and from her, too, I have received useful hints on literature. I have also met Gillian Fellows Jensen as well as many other scholars at conferences in Britain arranged by the Council for Name Studies in Great Britain and Ireland (now the Society for Names Studies in Britain). These conferences 5 have been very stimulating, and I am truly grateful to all the scholars I have met there. I have paid many visits to Dialekt- och Ortnamnsarkivet i Lund (DAL) (the Department of Dialectology and Onomastics in Lund), and I have received a great deal of help and always felt myself welcome there. My thanks are also due to the many relatives and friends who have been interested and helpful. Several friends are library colleagues and library visitors. Moreover, I wish to thank the society of Råå Biblioteks Vänner (The Friends of Råå Library) for the very generous gift for my research work that I received when I retired. Mr Bengt Pettersson of the IT-department, Lund, Mr Jonas Palm with colleagues of Media-Tryck, Lund, and the staff of Dataporten, Hässleholm, have given me invaluable help with my computer problems. This book is justly dedicated to the memory of my parents, fil. lic. Reinhold Jepson and Mrs Märta Jepson. My father died before I had begun to work on my thesis, but he has set me an excellent example, and the thought of him has inspired me during all the years of this project. My mother followed with great interest my work until she died, and without her loving support this thesis would never have been written. Hässleholm, September, 2011.

  • Hard Rock Miners' Phthisis in 19 and Early 20 Century Britain: From
    Hard Rock Miners’ Phthisis in 19 th and Early 20 th Century Britain: From Diagnosis to Compensation By Fredric Mintz A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In History In the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Thomas Laqueur, Chair Professor James Vernon Professor Victoria Bonnell Fall 2009 Acknowledgments I thank the University of California at Berkeley for providing me with all of the opportunities for which a hopeful scholar could wish. I am especially grateful to Susanna Barrows, PhD., Thomas Laqueur, PhD. and James Vernon, PhD. for their guidance, encouragement and inspiration. i Abstract Introduction: Hard Rock Miners Phthisis in 19 th and Early 20th Century Britain: From Diagnosis to Compensation By Fredric Mintz Doctor of Philosophy in History Professor Thomas Laqueur, Chair The development of new technologies and new patterns of working were indispensable to the accelerated economic growth, which characterized most of nineteenth century Britain. For much of that period the demand for raw siliceous containing materials increased sharply. In this process, equipment, which was ever more sophisticated, generated increasingly fine and more harmful siliceous dust, increasing early disability and death in mines and quarries as well as in numerous other industries. The present study examines the elaboration of silicosis, the disease, and the development of social policy directed at its prevention and compensation from the 1830s until 1918. I concentrate mainly on the nineteenth century and the twentieth century until 1907. In 1907, the law recognized that an occupational disease was a notional injury and a few became compensable.

  • ARG Today Issue 1.Indd
    Newsletter of the Amphibian and Reptile Groups of the United Kingdom Autumn 2006 What is ARG UK? Jan Clemons Chair of ARG UK ARG UK represents the national network of voluntary Amphibian and Reptile Groups (ARGs), which exist for the conservation, recording and appreciation of amphibians and reptiles in the United Kingdom. Individual ARGs have developed separately over the last 20 years and were, until 2005, known collectively as the Herpetofauna Groups of Britain and Ireland (HGBI). However, by 2005 they had little direction and in October of that year, a new co- ordinating panel was elected and took up the challenge of revitalising the ARG network and making it a more effective conservation body. The newly branded organisation changed its name from HGBI to ARG UK, and its aims are to: 1. Act as an independent co-ordinating body for the ARG network, maximising its Grass snake - photo by Jon Cranfield contribution to herpetofauna conservation in the UK. The ARG network currently consists of the Herpetofauna Workers’ Meeting 49 groups, the majority of which (37) (HWM) held at the Coventry University. 2.

  • "The Vale of Evesham Is a Lovely Place; the Air Is Soft
    We are very proud of being part of Prince Henry's High School and are conscious of its history, current achievements and distinctive ethos. Visitors to the school often comment on the sense of purpose and commitment that they encounter. We hope that you will feel the same and that you will share our belief that Prince Henry's has something very special to offer. In May 2010 Prince Henry’s had its fourth Ofsted Inspection and we were delighted that the Inspection Team again recognised that Prince Henry’s is an outstanding school with an outstanding Sixth Form. Further to this, Ofsted inspectors visiting Prince Henry’s in September 2011, found our Science department to be outstanding. We are confident that you will find that there is a real sense of pupils enjoying their education at Prince Henry's which arises from them feeling that they are being motivated, stretched, valued and supported by the high standards we expect of them. When Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Schools, Mr David Bell, visited Prince Henry’s in July 2004 he described our students as “confident and articulate young people who were a credit to their school and to state education more generally." Prince Henry's became a Foundation School in 1999 following a highly successful six year period as a Grant Maintained School. We are a very popular school, consistently oversubscribed. On 1st March 2011, Prince Henry’s became the first new-style Academy in Worcestershire. Over the last fifteen years we have undertaken a major refurbishment programme; for example new Science and Technology buildings were completed in 1997.

  • Manx Place-Names: an Ulster View
    37 Manx Place-Names: an Ulster View Kay Muhr In this chapter I will discuss place-name connections between Ulster and Man, beginning with the early appearances of Man in Irish tradition and its association with the mythological realm of Emain Ablach, from the 6th to the I 3th century. 1 A good introduction to the link between Ulster and Manx place-names is to look at Speed's map of Man published in 1605.2 Although the map is much later than the beginning of place-names in the Isle of Man, it does reflect those place-names already well-established 400 years before our time. Moreover the gloriously exaggerated Manx-centric view, showing the island almost filling the Irish sea between Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales, also allows the map to illustrate place-names from the coasts of these lands around. As an island visible from these coasts Man has been influenced by all of them. In Ireland there are Gaelic, Norse and English names - the latter now the dominant language in new place-names, though it was not so in the past. The Gaelic names include the port towns of Knok (now Carrick-) fergus, "Fergus' hill" or "rock", the rock clearly referring to the site of the medieval castle. In 13th-century Scotland Fergus was understood as the king whose migration introduced the Gaelic language. Further south, Dundalk "fort of the small sword" includes the element dun "hill-fort", one of three fortification names common in early Irish place-names, the others being rath "ring­ fort" and lios "enclosure".

It sets out a proposal for a sustainable eco-lodge complex on the former Flaxby Golf Course. Given its previous use, the Site has clear capacity to accommodate sensitively planned tourism development. Indeed, in 2013 prior to the closure of the Golf Course, the Council granted planning permission (LPA Ref: 09/01788/FUL) for the “erection of hotel and golf club house with access road, car park and installation of reed bed system with alterations to the A59 Public Highway.” The permitted hotel building was substantial in scale, extending to 298 bedrooms over 5 storeys and 26,419 sqm of floor space. Thus, demonstrating the appropriateness of the Site as a tourist destination and that the Site is able to accommodate further development.
