Drawing on the distinct historiographiesof women and gender,and of the elite, the evidenceproduced by this sharply-focusedapproach is usedto explore women's formal and informal roles, and the specific ways in which they were fulfilled, in the domestic, social, economic and political life of the elite. Considerationis first given to attitudes towards girls within the family and to how childhood experiencecontributed to the construction of elite womanhood. An assessmentof the level of convergencebetween family and individual interests in the matter of marital choices is followed by an exploration of the weight of domestic responsibility experiencedby women within the family, as wives, mothers and housekeepers.Attention then turns to assessingthe extent of female engagementwith political, economic and social life, in the pursuit of personaland family interests. The narrativesof women and their families illuminate how the female elite balancedthe particular mix of subordination and privilege conferred upon them by genderand status.The range of activities in which they engagedand the multifaceted nature of that engagementdemonstrate that throughout the eighteenth century women at all levels of the Nottinghamshire elite worked to support the ethos of elite pre-eminencein many small but cumulatively significant ways. 3 LIST OF FIGURES AND MAPS PageNumber Figure 1 The Bentinck family of Bulstrode and Welbeck 24 Figure 2 The Savile family of Rufford 29 Figure 3 The Lumley-Saundersonfamily of Sandbeck 31 Figure 4 The Foljambe family of Aidwark and Osberton 36 Figure 5 The Thornhagh/Hewett family of Osbertonand Shireoaks 40 Figure 6 The Warde family of Hooton Pagnell 41 Figure 7 The Gawthern family of Nottingham 49 Figure 8 Monies received by the younger children of Francis and Mary Arabella Foljambe 118 Figure 9 The two patriotic duchess'son their canvass.' 193 Map 1 The location of the family homes 25 4 ABBREVIATIONS The following abbreviationshave been used in footnote referencesto primary sourcematerials.

Acknowledgements The debts of gratitude incurred during the past few yearsof study are many. First I would like to expressmy thanks for the financial support I received in the form of a studentshipfrom the University of Nottingham, without which it is unlikely that this project would have started.I have also received much practical assistance from the staff of Nottinghamshire RecordsOffice, Nottingham University Manuscripts Department, Berkshire RecordsOffice, DoncasterRecords Office, Lambeth PalaceLibrary, and Chatsworth House who gave so much invaluable help in keeping me supplied with the primary sourcematerials. Two private families also deserveparticular mention for granting me accessto family papers.Both Lord and Lady Scarbroughof SandbeckHall and Mr and Mrs Warde-Norbury of Hooton Pagnell welcomed me into their respectivehomes with courtesy,consideration and hospitality. For this I offer my sincerethanks. Along the way, so many people have assistedme by their support and enthusiasm for my work. My supervisor, ProfessorJohn Beckett, has been a model of patienceand persistence,and has wielded his red pen without mercy. For this I am extremely grateful. Fellow postgraduatestudents, Richard Gaunt, Denise Amos and Paul Evans have been staunchin their friendship and support for a fellow sufferer. Studentson the Advanced Certificate in Local History at the University of Nottingham and on the Certificate in Combined Studiesat the Universityof Kent at Canterburyhave also helpedto keepme motivatedwith their unfailing interest in my latest discoveries. 6 The cumulative significance of the contribution madeby family and close friends to the completion of a thesis is immeasurable.I could not possibly mention every instanceof kindness,moral and practical support, and assistancethat I have enjoyed. All I will say here is I know how much you have done and I hope you know how grateful I am. As for my husband George and my daughter Hannah, what can I say? They have done everything they could to help keep me going and I cannot thank them enough. 7 INTRODUCTION The history of the eighteenth-centuryEnglish elite hasbeen, until very recently, a predominantly masculine affair. Whether concernedwith defining membership, exploring activities or asking what promoted the longevity of this ruling class, historians have focused attention on the ways in which men achievedand exercisedpower in the political, economic and social worlds-of the day. This thesis aims to contribute to the businessof redressingthe balanceby exploring the content, rangeand purposeof women's lives in the elite of eighteenth-century England. Rather than focus in depth upon a particular sector of this heterogeneous social group, this study will cut a swathethrough the Nottinghamshire elite, reconstructingthe lives and accessingthe attitudes and opinions of a cross-section of women from families of differing social status,from the peerage,through the greaterand lessergentry. Women's roles in family life, and in the political, economic and social environment in which elite families were rooted will be examinedto ask what was expectedof women, what they delivered, and what contribution, if any, they made to the maintenanceof the elite. This introduction establishesthe themeswhich will run throughout this work, arising from the current stateof researchin the histories of the elite, of women and of gender. A definition of the social category `elite' is followed by a brief considerationof how historians of the elite have dealt with women and, converselyhow women's history has dealt with the elite, and the implications of developmentsin the history of gender for these approaches.Finally, the contours 8 of this study are defined, setting out, chapterby chapter,the topics to be explored and the questionsto be asked. There is a broad consensusamongst historians of the elite as to how this privileged ruling class was constituted. In generalterms the elite of eighteenth- century England were the landowning families who, basedon the wealth and power that landownershipendowed, took the lead in national and local politics, ' dominated much of the economy and played a prominent role in society. The wide-ranging privileges of membership were balancedby a responsibility to the communities in which they operated.Although it was possibleto enter this exclusive social group from outside, through marriage or ennoblement,or by purchasingan estate,these routes offered only limited accessto outsiders,due to the prevalenceof endogamousmarriage and the increasingscarcity of land 2 available for purchaseduring the eighteenthcentury. Within this powerful and affluent social group there were wide variations in status,in wealthand in spheresof influence.The smallestbut mostprestigious group of about 400 families were the peerageor great landlords with an annual income from their extensive estates,often located in severalcounties, of anywhere between £5000 and £50,000. This economic pre-eminencewas combined with 11V. Beckett, the aristocracy in England 1660-1914(Oxford, 1989 edn.), pp. 21-2; J.

    2 In memory of Jeffrey Martin Whittock (1927–2013), much-loved and respected father and papa. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A number of people provided valuable advice which assisted in the preparation of this book; without them, of course, carrying any responsibility for the interpretations offered by the book. We are particularly indebted to our agent Robert Dudley who, as always, offered guidance and support, as did Simon Hamlet and Mark Beynon at The History Press. In addition, Bradford-on-Avon library, and the Wiltshire and the Somerset Library services, provided access to resources through the inter-library loans service. For their help and for this service we are very grateful. Through Hannah’s undergraduate BA studies and then MPhil studies in the department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic (ASNC) at Cambridge University (2008–12), the invaluable input of many brilliant academics has shaped our understanding of this exciting and complex period of history, and its challenging sources of evidence. The resulting familiarity with Old English, Old Norse and Insular Latin has greatly assisted in critical reflection on the written sources. As always, the support and interest provided by close family and friends cannot be measured but is much appreciated. And they have been patient as meal-time conversations have given way to discussions of the achievements of Alfred and Athelstan, the impact of Eric Bloodaxe and the agendas of the compilers of the 4 Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. 5 CONTENTS Title Dedication Acknowledgements Introduction 1 The Gathering

Email: d.m.hadley@sheffield.ac.uk Julian D Richards, Department of Archaeology, University of York, The King’s Manor, York YO17EP, UK. Email: [email protected] This paper presents the results of a multidisciplinary project that has revealed the location, extent and character of the winter camp of the Viking Great Army at Torksey, Lincolnshire, of AD 872–3. The camp lay within a naturally defended area of higher ground, partially surrounded by marshes and bordered by the River Trent on its western side. It is considerably larger than the Viking camp of 873–4 previously excavated at Repton, Derbyshire, and lacks the earthwork defences identified there. Several thousand individuals overwintered in the camp, including warriors, craftworkers and merchants. An exceptionally large and rich metalwork assemblage was deposited during the Great Army’s overwintering, and metal processing and trading was undertaken. There is no evidence for a pre-existing Anglo-Saxon trading site here; the site appears to have been chosen for its strategic location and its access to resources. In the wake of the overwintering, Torksey developed as an important Anglo-Saxon borough with a major wheel-thrown pottery industry and multiple churches and cemeteries.

  • King of the Danes’ Stephen M
    Hamlet with the Princes of Denmark: An exploration of the case of Hálfdan ‘king of the Danes’ Stephen M. Lewis University of Caen Normandy, CRAHAM [email protected] As their military fortunes waxed and waned, the Scandinavian armies would move back and forth across the Channel with some regularity [...] appearing under different names and in different constellations in different places – Neil Price1 Little is known about the power of the Danish kings in the second half of the ninth century when several Viking forces ravaged Frankia and Britain – Niels Lund2 The Anglo-Saxon scholar Patrick Wormald once pointed out: ‘It is strange that, while students of other Germanic peoples have been obsessed with the identity and office of their leaders, Viking scholars have said very little of such things – a literal case of Hamlet without princes of Denmark!’3 The reason for this state of affairs is two-fold. First, there is a dearth of reliable historical, linguistic and archaeological evidence regarding the origins of the so-called ‘great army’ in England, except that it does seem, and is generally believed, that they were predominantly Danes - which of course does not at all mean that they all they came directly from Denmark itself, nor that ‘Danes’ only came from the confines of modern Denmark. Clare Downham is surely right in saying that ‘the political history of vikings has proved controversial due to a lack of consensus as to what constitutes reliable evidence’.4 Second, the long and fascinating, but perhaps ultimately unhealthy, obsession with the legendary Ragnarr loðbrók and his litany of supposed sons has distracted attention from what we might learn from a close and separate examination of some of the named leaders of the ‘great army’ in England, without any inferences being drawn from later Northern sagas about their dubious familial relationships to one another.5 This article explores the case of one such ‘Prince of Denmark’ called Hálfdan ‘king of the Danes’.

  • The Rise and Fall of a Market Town, Castle Donington in the Nineteenth
    THE RISE AND FALL OF A 1\iIARl(ET TOWN Castle Donington in the Nineteenth Century by J.M. Lee I The old buildings of Castle Donington are startling evidence of former prosperity. Not only the larger residences of High Street, but also many houses of little importance with back-kitchens and outhouses of old half­ timbered work, have red-brick fronts and sash windows, all of the same age, which are a flourish in the classical style that dominated the ordinary domes­ tic architecture of the early nineteenth century. The visitor must be puzzled by the curious architectural luxuries which have been altered to suit other purposes. For instance, a house stands in the Market Place, with a classical pediment and a French window which once opened on to a wrought iron balcony; but its ground floor frontage has twice been rebuilt, once to accom­ modate two shop-fronts and now to house an office. The balanced pro­ portions of No. 71 High Street, and the elegance of its next-door neighbour are evidence of good taste. The two houses in High Street built for two sisters of a former vicar, Isabella and Mary Ann Dalby, command the respect due to comfortable gentility. The bold bow-windows of a shop in Church Lane and the shy milliner's window in Apes Gate remind the passer-by of long-vanished trades. A sense of solid satisfaction is conveyed by the even regularity of door and window in Church Lane Terrace, by the ostentation of Venetian windows above two shops in Borough Street and by the moulding of the cottage door-jambs in Bondgate.
