My late father was a hard-working, semi-skilled working-class man, who always had the utmost respect for the law and brought up his children to ‘know right from wrong’ and yet also had a profound suspicion of the police. Much of this, I later discovered, grew out of his minor scrapes with the law as he grew up in a poor family, in a less than respectable district of north London. Nonetheless, there was a tension, an ambivalence, if not an outright contradiction, in his attitude towards the police. This I found perplexing – and, to a lesser extent, still do. This book, although focusing on a different place in a different time, has given me an opportunity to explore and reflect on the complexities of our attitudes towards agents of law enforcement. The arguments advanced in the following pages are firmly rooted in the realities of policing in mid-Victorian Yorkshire but, in developing these ideas, my father’s once-perplexing attitude towards the police (and indeed my own) have become more comprehensible. In writing any book one incurs many intellectual and personal debts, some going back over many years. The intellectual debts are abundantly clear from the footnotes and my thanks go to the many scholars who have added to my understanding of Victorian policing. I am also very grateful for the courteous and efficient service I have received from the staff of the Library and Computing Services of Huddersfield University, Huddersfield Local History Library and the West Yorkshire Archive Service. I am particularly grateful to Graham Stone and Sue White, who have overseen the production of this book, Hazel Goodes, not least for her careful copy-editing which viii beerhouses, brothels and bobbies has greatly enhanced the text and Sarah Harding for her assistance with the maps of Huddersfield. In addition, special mention must be made of the members of the Huddersfield branch of the University of the Third Age, who not only came to various classes, encouraging me to extend my knowledge of the local area and, most kindly, correcting some of the worst errors made by a ‘comer- in’. My knowledge, particularly of the geography of the area, has been increased considerably and any errors that remain cannot be laid at their door. Finally, special thanks go to my wife, Thelma, to whom this book is dedicated. Not only did she – yet again – read and comment on every draft of every chapter, she also spent several hours poring over microfilm versions of the local press and, most importantly, instilled a sense of proportion into the whole venture. The book is better for her contributions and its shortcomings are entirely mine. ix Tables 2.1 Persons per constable & acres per constable: West Riding of Yorkshire, 1862 22 2.2 Huddersfield borough police: rates of pay, 1848 25 2.3 Huddersfield borough police: pay increases, 1856 & 1865 26 2.4 Huddersfield borough police: length of completed careers, 1848–68 31 2.5 Huddersfield borough police: completed career outcomes, 1848–68 32 2.6 Huddersfield borough police, resignations and dismissals, 1848–68 33 2.7 Huddersfield borough police: disciplinary record, 1848–68 34 2.8 Huddersfield borough police: length of service, 1860 42 2.9 Huddersfield borough police: Supt.

We may be critical of the ways in which policing is organised and carried out but few would argue that we should not have uniformed, bureaucratically organized and accountable police forces. Yet (in historical terms) it is not that long ago that the introduction of such forces, the so-called ‘new police’, that replaced an older system based on parochial constables and night watchmen, was highly controversial. In the last fifty years police history has been a dynamic part of both academic and popular history. We now know so much more about the development of the ‘new police’ that few, if any, would subscribe to the comforting, ‘Whiggish’ narratives of the earliest police historians, such as Captain W L Melville Lee and Charles Reith.1 But if we are all ‘revisionists’ now, there is considerable scope for disagreement, not least over the nature and extent of ‘policing by consent’, that supposedly distinctive feature of British policing. Further, despite the upsurge in publications our knowledge of the development of policing remains patchy, particularly in geographical terms. A considerable amount of attention has been devoted to the history of the police in London and the major cities but, with a few honourable exceptions, we know little about the policing of medium-sized towns and the counties. Given the importance of the West Riding to the socio-economic and political development of the country in the nineteenth century, it is surprising that so little research has been done on an area noted for its economic dynamism, social tensions and political agitation. This book goes some way to filling that gap by focussing on the 2 beerhouses, brothels and bobbies advent of the ‘new police’ in Huddersfield and the Huddersfield district (that is, Upper Agbrigg) in the period c.1840 to 1868, which constituted the first generation of ‘new policing’ in the district. 1840 was a crucial year.

  • DEATH on the HOME FRONT Pam Brooke
    DEATH ON THE HOME FRONT Pam Brooke Much has been written about the Military Service Act and the operation of Tribunals however this has mostly focused on the outcome for conscientious objectors and little has been written about those who sought exemption on other grounds.1 One particularly tragic case from the Colne Valley illustrates the wide repercussions that the refusal of one man’s application for exemption had on both his family and the wider community. On Wednesday 28 November 1916, at Slaithwaite Town Hall, 62-year-old James Shaw, blacksmith and hill farmer appeared before the local Tribunal to request an extension to his son’s Exemption Certificate. Charles, aged 28, he said, was his only son and worked with him in the blacksmith shop and on the farm. Depicting himself to be ‘a poor talker’ James presented his case in a written statement which the military representative described as ‘resembling a sermon’. In response James explained that he was a regular worshipper at Pole Moor Baptist Chapel, Scammonden.2 New Gate Farm cottage as seen today. Photo by the author. 1 Cyril Pearce, Comrades in Conscience: The story of an English community’s opposition to the Great War, 2nd Edition (Francis Boutle, London: 2014), p. 134 2 Colne Valley Guardian [hereafter CVG], 1 December 1916 1 The statement gave a detailed account of the circumstances justifying exemption: his son began to milk aged nine and farmed their 14 acres of land for 23 head of cattle – including a dairy, together with six more acres under the plough for food production.
