Your attention is drawn to the Important Notice on the last page of the text. Location For rural living and accessibility to Monmouth and Hereford, Newton Lodge is ideal. Monmouth is an excellent shopping centre having a Waitrose and the Haberdashers Monmouth Schools for boys and girls. The town also stands on the A40 linking the M50 at Ross-on-Wye for the Midlands to the M4 at Newport, for Cardiff and Bristol. The Property Newton Lodge remains to this day an important house in this region. Evidence of its origins are identifiable in the old part of the house around the Kitchen and Utility area. Later additions have today created a significant family house with many interesting features. Most windows have shutters. The ceiling roses in the main reception rooms are exquisite. Outbuildings are plentiful and on an historical note include the old Doctor’s surgery and Maid’s room (Old Dairy). The views from the house are sensational. Approached through impressive stone pillared wrought iron gates, on the right side of which is a high stone wall, the gravelled drive sweeps to the front door framed by a columned pediment. The Lobby off which is the cloakroom, has a glazed door into the tile floored Hall running through the house, off which are the two fine reception rooms, the Dining Room and the Drawing Room each with a bay window, open fireplaces and picture rails. At the end of the house is the Morning Room and the Sitting Room with French doors to the garden. The Kitchen has a flagstone floor. The Nobel gas fired oven also has an electric hob and there are ample fitted units and a Pantry. The boiler room is off the Utility Room which still has the old range and back door. The curved elegant staircase leads up to a pretty landing. Along the front of the house is the main bedroom with its ensuite shower room, and two other bedrooms are served by a bathroom. At the back of the house there are two further bedrooms either side of a shower room. Outside the back door, there is a passage leading to the Maid’s Room (Old Dairy) which is a square stone building with a bedroom and a shower room, above which is a small Sitting Room. The Coach House Independent of the main house with its own entrance, the walled garden has a cobbled courtyard covered over to form a patio/pretty garden with borders and shrubs. On the ground floor the house has a small kitchen, shower room and bedroom. A spiral staircase leads up to an open plan sitting room with a wood burning stove and dining room. In the cobbled yard are two garages which form one end of the long line of excellent outbuildings which include an office/Doctor’s surgery, potting shed, wood store and conservatory/greenhouse. A new 30ft x 12ft garage with power and water, is in a paddock behind the Coach House. The Gardens and Grounds A large wall abounds the property. On the South side of the house is the main lawn for tennis or croquet, 2 patios and a small shed at the end of the lawn. The top garden incorporates an orchard, with pears, plums, fig, eating and cooking apples, soft fruit, and space for vegetables. The field in front of the house has a pond and a “Roman Bath” (fresh water swimming pool) fed from springs. The far field has a copse with a spring too. There is a TPO on the Beech and Indian Horse Chestnut on the triangle before you enter through the main gates. The patch adjoining the “garage paddock “ has a vehicular assess from the top of the market path.

  • Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549
    “JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

  • HEREFORDSHIRE Is Repeatedly Referred to in Domesday As Lying In
    ABO BLOOD GROUPS, HUMAN HISTORY AND LANGUAGE IN HEREFORDSHIRE WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE LOW B FREQUENCY IN EUROPE I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Aberystwyth Received6.x.64 1.INTRODUCTION HEREFORDSHIREis repeatedly referred to in Domesday as lying in Wales and the county is regularly described as such in the Pipe Rolls until 1249-50. Of the two dozen or so charters granted to the county town, a number are addressed to the citizens of Hereford in Wales. That fluency in Welsh was until 1855oneof the qualifications for the post of clerk to the Hereford city magistrates indicated the county's bilingual nature. The object of the present investigation is to ascertain whether there is any significant genetic difference between the part of Herefordshire conquered by the Anglo-Saxons and the area called "Welsh Hereford- shire ".Assome moorland parishes have lost 50 per cent. of their inhabitants during the last 50 years, the need to carry out the survey is the more pressing. 2.THE HUMAN HISTORY OF HEREFORDSHIRE Pre-Norman Conquest Offa'sgeneral line of demarcation between England and Wales in the eighth century extending in Herefordshire from near Lyonshall to Bridge Sollars, about five miles upstream from Hereford, is inter- mittent in the well-wooded lowlands, being only found in the Saxon clearings. From this Fox (i) infers that the intervening forest with its dense thickets of thorn and bramble filling the space under the tree canopy was an impassable barrier. Downstream to Redbrook (Glos.) the river was probably the boundary but the ferry crossing from Beachley to Aust and the tidal navigational rights up the Wye were retained by the Welsh—facts which suggest that the Dyke was in the nature of an agreed frontier.

    Newyddiadur Swyddogol Esgobaeth Caerdydd Issue 273 September 2019 Official Newspaper of the Archdiocese of Cardiff Pick up your FREE Catholic People copy today Pilgrimages mark two great Welsh Martyrs Pilgrims honour Saint David Lewis Archbishop George Stack delivered this homily at the Dedication of the Church Martyrs in Aberystwyth. The article also marks last month’s pilgrimages to the graves of Welsh Martyrs Saint John Kemble and Saint David Lewis Forty eight years ago I had the privilege of being present in St. Peter’s Basilica, Rome, when Pope Paul VI canonised the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. It was an amazing experience, made even more special in the fact that the choir of Westminster Cathedral was allowed to sing the Mass rather than the Sistine choir. Little did I know that thirty years later I would be responsible for that choir as Administrator of Westminster Cathedral. Neither did I know that forty eight years later I would be privileged to preach in Aberystywth at the re-dedication of the church in honour of Pope Paul VI - he canonised our martyrs the Welsh martyrs. “The blood of the martyrs is the seedbed of tragedy in the lives of these martyrs was that the Church” wrote St. Iranaeus in the second their honest and genuine loyalty came into century. And, indeed, there are as many conflict with their fidelity to God and the martyrs for the faith today as ever there were dictates of their conscience illumined by the in previous ages. Church”.

The recorded reasoning for the deferral was to enable further consideration to be given as to the need for the boundary wall as proposed; the location of the dwelling within the site; a reassessment of the impact on the amenity of the neighbouring property; and a request that the submission of a daylight/sunlight analysis be sought to consider the impacts in relation to light. In the interim, revised plans have been submitted for consideration and in summary these address the following points: - The proposed boundary wall has been deleted from the application in favour of the retention of the existing fenced boundary with timber sleeper retaining structure alongside the neighbouring bungalow (Hazledene). The common boundary between the proposed new dwelling and the roadside boundary would comprise a post and rail fence with native species hedgerow planting - The proposed dwelling has been moved forward on the plot by approximately 6.4 metres - The applicant has provided an additional plan and section (Drawing No.

  • The First Wales & Monmouthshire Regional
    STAMP DEFINITIVES THE FIRST WALES & MONMOUTHSHIRE REGIONAL STAMPS Date of issue: AUGUST 1958 - AUGUST 1969 On 18 July 1956 the Postmaster General (PMG), Dr Charles Hill, was asked in Parliament whether consideration had been given to issuing distinctive stamps for different parts of the United Kingdom. In reply he outlined the proposals informally approved by the Queen on 7 July for the GPO to issue 2½d, 4d and 1s 3d values for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and 2½d for Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man. He explained that the size, basic design and colour of the stamps would not change; the Queen’s head would remain the dominant feature but the borders of each stamp would contain symbols or designs appropriate to the country or area concerned, in place of those on the United Kingdom permanent issue. This ‘would symbolise the unity, combined with diversity, which provides the continuing strength of the British tradition’. It was intended that committees ‘representative of cultural and artistic interests in the countries and islands concerned’ be set up to advise on the design of the stamps. The announcement was not universally welcomed; for example, Viscount Elibank wrote in a letter to ‘The Daily Telegraph’ of 31 July that stamps with Welsh symbols would be ‘foisted’ on the English border counties of Cheshire, Shropshire and Herefordshire. THE MONMOUTHSHIRE PROBLEM On 23 July S D Sargent, the Deputy Director General (DDG) of the Post Office, wrote to Sir Austin Strutt of the Home Office regarding the matter raised in the provincial press over 1 whether the stamps for Wales would also be sold in Monmouthshire.
