Using the heiresses of the earldoms and honours of Chester, Pembroke, Leicester and Winchester as case studies, this thesis sheds light on the processes of female inheritance and the effects of coparceny in a turbulent period of English history. The lives of the heiresses featured in this thesis span the reigns of three English kings: John, Henry III and Edward I. The reigns of John and Henry saw bitter civil wars, whilst Edward’s was plagued with expensive foreign wars.

  • How Did One Approach Otford Palace?
    How did one approach Otford Palace? Charles Shee How did one approach the Otford Palace? Charles Shee This article, based on the archives of the Otford and District Historical Society, was first published in the Otford History and Heritage Newsletter, Autumn 2019, no 19. It is included in the Otford Palace archive by kind permission of Charles Shee and Alan Williams, editor of the Newsletter. Walking from the Otford pond to the Palace it is easy to assume that the slightly elevated lane that passes Chantry Cottage was the access route to the 16C Archbishop ’s Palace. However, a moment’s reflection suggests that this is unlikely. The present narrow road (Palace Approach) leads towards the remaining north-western Tower, but the original main entrance, the Great Gatehouse, was actually significantly further to the east (Fig 1). The western half of the Great Gatehouse still exists, and is joined to the remaining tower by a row of cottages (Fig 1). Some readers will know the western Gatehouse as the building where the Guides used to meet. The eastern part of the Gatehouse and the long range running east towards the station, along with most of the rest of the Palace, were demolished and cleared away many years ago. Surely the original approach to the grand northern entrance of this magnificent palace must have been further to the east than the existing lane? None of the known accounts of the Palace tell us how the Great Gatehouse was approached from the north, nor are there any contemporary illustrations. The reconstruction model of the Palace by Rod Shelton (a “must see” in the Heritage Centre) and the guides to the Palace by local historians Cliff Ward and Rod Shelton leave it to the imagination how this approach way might have connected to the vicinity of the Otford pond or High Street.

I sought out unusual items relating to villages and areas of Cambridge not usually featured These stories are from issues of the Cambridge Daily/Evening/Weekly News of 1897-1990 I can supply actual copies of many of these articles – please contact me. The full set of articles, numbering over 3,000 pages is available at bit.ly/CambsCollection The newspapers are held in the Cambridgeshire Collection together with other Cambridge titles back to 1762. They have a variety of indexes including a record of stories for every village in Cambridgeshire between 1770-1900 and newspaper cuttings files on 750 topics from 1958 to date. I initiated much of the indexing and have many indexes of my own. Please feel free to contact me for advice and assistance.

Even before the Norman Conquest peninsula from it had been part of the dower of Saxon queens, including the wife of the air in 2006 Edward the Confessor, who gave her name to the village of Edith Weston.

One of the churches belonging to Hambleton was St Peter’s, Stamford, which with half a carucate (around 60 acres) of land at Hambleton was held by Albert of Lorraine, William the Conquerer’s chaplain (Morris 1980, 19-21). In addition to its arable lands, the manor of Hambleton contained 40 acres of meadow and more than three square miles of woodland. With male adults listed in 1086 as 140 villeins and thirteen bordars, the total population probably exceeded 500. Serfs toiled up and down the three great open fields, behind oxen pulling the 45 ploughs belonging to the king and the villagers. Today, nearly a millennium later, areas of former ridge and furrow strips can still be seen. – 149 – Hambleton 5/10/07 17:43 Page 2 An 1839 drawing of Hambleton Church (Uppingham School Archives) Some time after the Domesday survey, William the Conquerer granted Hambleton to the powerful Norman family of Umfraville, who sub-divided the large and sprawling manor into two: Great and Little Hambleton.

Pidgeon Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 15 December 2011 ii iii ABSTRACT Who were the Wydeviles? The family arrived with the Conqueror in 1066. As followers in the Conqueror’s army the Wydeviles rose through service with the Mowbray family. If we accept the definition given by Crouch and Turner for a brief period of time the Wydeviles qualified as barons in the twelfth century. This position was not maintained. By the thirteenth century the family had split into two distinct branches. The senior line settled in Yorkshire while the junior branch settled in Northamptonshire. The junior branch of the family gradually rose to prominence in the county through service as escheator, sheriff and knight of the shire.

LORD BISHOP OF LICHFIELD THESE MEMORIALS OF HIS NATIVE COUNTY ARE BY PERMISSION DEDICATED PREFACE H ILST not professing to be a complete survey of Staffordshire this volume, we hope, will W afford Memorials both of some interesting people and of some venerable and distinctive institutions; and as most of its contributors are either genealogically linked with those persons or are officially connected with the institutions, the book ought to give forth some gleams of light which have not previously been made public. Staffordshire is supposed to have but little actual history. It has even been called the playground of great people who lived elsewhere. But this reproach will not bear investigation.
