G R I F F I N University of Sussex ABSTRACT. No form of English popular protest has been subject to such close scholarly analysis as the eighteenth-century food riot, a response not just to the understanding that food riots comprised two out of every three crowd actions but also to the influence of E. P. Thompson’s seminal paper ‘The moral economy of the English crowd’. If the food riot is now understood as an event of consid- erable complexity, one assertion remains unchallenged: that riots remained a tradition of the towns, with agrarian society all but unaffected by food rioting. This article offers a new interpretation in which the rural is not just the backdrop to food protests but instead a locus and focus of collective actions over the marketing of provisions, with agricultural workers taking centre stage. It is shown that agricultural workers often took the lead in market town riots as well as well as in instigating riots in the countryside.

  • A Study of Motivation and the Satisficing Approaches Used by Professional Craft Artists
    A study of motivation and the satisficing approaches used by Professional Craft Artists Sophie Bennett PhD Thesis Aberystwyth University 2015 Vol 1 1 Abstract This research investigates the way in which Professional Craft Artists (Pro-C Artists) operating in the rural sub-regions of Wales achieve a balance between co-existing, paradoxical motives. Previous studies have identified the existence of both intrinsic and extrinsic motives within the visual arts (Hirschman, 1983; RIPPLE, 1998; Fillis & McAuley, 2005) in, for example, the need to both earn an income and gain self-fulfilment from creative work. Such circumstances are investigated in this study, where the settlement of a satisfactory outcome both in terms of the level of satisfaction and income received can be seen in the production of visual art and craft. Intrinsic and extrinsic motives are considered, alongside external socio-environmental factors including location, materials and networks, in order to investigate paradoxical motives in creative work. Quantitative questionnaires have been used to identify Pro-C Artists operating within Pembrokeshire, Ceredigion, Carmarthenshire and Powys and select seventeen participants who took part in the research. Qualitative interviews are used to identify motives and satisficing approaches used in the visual arts sector. The findings from this research highlight the three main satisficing approaches that are used to manage conflicting tensions. These are presented in the concluding section to explain the significance of managing such tensions within the workplace, and also in relation to current rural strategies and creative support organisations, to consider how investment in the visual arts sector may contribute to rural localities. 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisors Professor Steve McGuire and Dr Rachel Rahman for their support and guidance throughout this research.

  • DSM Dateline
    The view from Down St Mary 780 to 2014 DSM timeline © Roger Steer 780 The Saxons reach the Tamar. During the period of the Saxons, the natural forests of Devon are gradually cleared and most of the villages and settlements we take for granted in the countryside are established. 905 Bishop Putta is murdered – some say at the spot where Copplestone cross stands. 909 Diocese of Crediton created. 934-53 Bishop Ethelgar collects funds for the building of St Mary’s Minster at Crediton. 974 Copplestone Cross, at the junction of Down St Mary with two other parishes until 1992, is mentioned in a charter, but is much older than that. It is early Celtic interlaced work such as is not found elsewhere in England except in Northumbria. The cross gives a name to a once noted Devon family which comes in the local rhyme: Crocker, Cruwys, and Coplestone, When the Conqueror came were found at home. Eleventh Century 1018 Buckfast Abbey is founded under the patronage of King Canute. 1040 The Manor of Down(e) named after the Saxon settlement DUN meaning Hill, first recorded as being the gift of King Harthacnut. (Harthacnut was king of Denmark from 1028 to 1042 and of England from 1040 to 1042. Some of the glebe land in the manor originally formed part of the Devon estates of Harthacnut’s father, Canute, king of England 1016-35.) Tenure is granted to Aelfwein, Abbot of Buckfast in support of the ministry of the Abbey Church. Down St Mary is one of six Devon churches held by the Abbot of Buckfast prior to the Norman conquest, the others being Churchstow, Petrockstow, South Brent, Trusham and Zeal Monachorum.

  • Devon Mental Health Needs Assessment 2013
    Mental Health and Wellbeing Health Needs Assessment September 2013 Kirsty Priestley, Senior Public Health Information Analyst, Devon County Council Page 1 of 112 Foreword This needs assessment has been produced to support the commissioning of mental health and wellbeing services across the cluster of Devon and Torbay and compliments the Plymouth Mental Health Needs Assessment. This needs assessment also considers the wider wellbeing of the population which supports the local authorities’ responsibility for public mental health. Changes brought in to effect from April 2013 through the health and social care act now place the responsibility for local public health with Devon County Council, Torbay Council and Plymouth City Council. The close working relationship with the NHS continues through the provision of public health support and advice to the two clinical commissioning groups covering the area: Northern, Eastern and Western (NEW) Devon Clinical Commissioning Group and South Devon and Torbay Clinical Commissioning Group. This needs assessment is one of many local health needs assessments that are either completed, planned or underway which consider different aspects of health and wellbeing in Devon. Completed needs assessments are published on the Devon Health and Wellbeing website www.devonhealthandwellbeing.org.uk. The recommendations in this document should be considered alongside other related needs assessments, the Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy and the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment, to ensure a full picture of need.

  • The Home Office and Public Disturbance, C.1800-1832
    The Home Office and Public Disturbance, c.1800-1832 Nathan Ashley Bend Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD. May 2018 ii Abstract This thesis examines the role of the Home Office in the machinery of order from c.1800-1832. It combines institutional enquiry with the study of popular protest by examining protest from the viewpoint of the Home Office. It looks at how the growth of the Home Office was stagnated due to efforts to economise, and how it transformed its systems to make them more efficient in response to peaks of administrative work caused by popular tumult. The different roles that each person performed in the Home Office is outlined, and by doing so the pivotal role of the permanent under- secretary of state, who remains underrepresented in histories of protest, is exposed. It also looks at what powers the home secretary had at his disposal, and how they were used to repress food riots, the Luddite disturbances, the movement for parliamentary reform, the Swing riots, political agitation leading to the Great Reform Act, and trade unions. It compares the different approaches of home secretaries and argues that although the use of powers was generally guided by established precedent, others such as domestic espionage were more divisive, and were influenced by the personality and experience of the home secretary. The thesis also examines the relationships between the Home Office hierarchy and government departments with authorities in the provinces. This thesis brings together all the available records which relate to the Home Office as an institution and those which relate to public disturbance.

    Citizens Advice TNMWD 1-3 Bridge Buildings The Strand Barnstaple EX32 8LW [email protected] Wednesday, 02 December 2020 Tel 01271-312948 www.ruraldevoncab.org.uk Dear Jane Ref: Shobrooke Parish Council Donation to Citizens Advice Citizens Advice Torridge, North, Mid and West Devon offers a free service to members of the public across the Mid Devon Council area, providing advice and information for the benefit of the individual and the community. Many members of the public come to us in difficult circumstances when they have no one else to turn to, often in life changing situations. The Covid-19 Pandemic has had a significant detrimental effect on the economy of Mid Devon as well as the health and wellbeing of many of our clients. Devon County Council have forecast that the economy of Devon will shrink by 8% this year and nationally 1.3 million homes have fallen into council tax arrears alongside a 20% drop in household income with household debts increasing as a result. National Citizens Advice predictions suggest that there will be a 60% increase in the number of queries regarding household debt in the next few months. The pandemic has adversely affected much of society but especially young people, those in insecure employment, and who have health problems placing them at greater risk from the virus. Evidence also shows that these effects are significantly increased in rural areas such as ours, and that general anxiety levels about the increased risk of debt, redundancy and potential loss of jobs and homes are also higher.

  • Devon and the First World War
    1 Devon and the First World War Submitted by Richard John Batten to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in September 2013 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract This thesis examines the experiences and impact of wartime mobilization in the county of Devon. It argues that a crucial role was played by the county’s elites who became the self-appointed intermediaries of the war experience on a local level and who took an explicitly exhortative role, attempting to educate Devonians in the codes of ideal conduct in wartime. These armchair patriots, defined by the local commentator Stephen Reynolds as ‘provincial patriots’, superintended the patriotism of Devon’s population, evaluating that patriotism against the strength of their own. Through a critical exploration of Reynolds’ definition of Devon’s elite as the police-men and women of patriotism, this thesis reveals the ambiguities, constraints and complexities surrounding mobilization and remobilization in Devon. The evidence from Devon reveals the autonomy of Devon’s citizens as they attempted to navigate the different challenges of the war while they weighed-up individual and local interests against the competing requests that the ‘provincial patriots’ prescribed for them.
