    Railways List

    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

  • Chapter Ix. Old Melbourne Described

    Chapter Ix. Old Melbourne Described

    CHAPTER IX. OLD MELBOURNE DESCRIBED. 1840—1843. SYNOPSIS:—Difficulties of Pedcstrianism—Early Legal Difficulties.—The Queen's Wharf—Solar Perplexities.—First Public Clock.—Early Letter-carriers. —Tardy Mail-deliveries.—First Burial Ground.—A Threatened Famine.—Early Mercantile Firms.—Jewish Residents.—Population of Colony in 1840-1.—Nocturnal Outrages.—Bill of Wants.—Sir Gcor«e Gipps' Visit.—•" Kiteflying."—The Unemployed.—Street Procession.—Open-air Demonstration.—Population of the Town. —First Executions of Criminals. —Commercial Depression.—Mr. Wentworth.—First Boiling-down Establishments.—Revival of Trade. PERSON now standing on the summit of Parliament House, and looking at the city spreading its wings, fan-like in every direction—its steeples, domes, and edifices glinting in the sunlight—the people, like bees, buzzing and busying about—the vehicles of every description, tram cars, and other evidences of active li'e thronging the streets—the whinnying and whistling of the "iron horse" as he rushes through the suburbs, and the fleet of shipping in Hobson's Bay—will smile with incredulity at my portraiture of the Melbourne of nearly half a century ago, yet it will be limned to the life without a single shade or tint of exaggeration thrown in to set off the effect. Forty odd years is such a brief period in the life of a great city, that unless the Melbourne of 1840 could be attested by an eye witness, it is difficult even to imagine the state of things then existent as compared with the present, and there never has been a stronger verification than the comparison supplies, of Burke's famous adage, that " fiction lags after fact, invention is unfruitful, and imagination is cold and barren." Melbourne in 1840 was certainly not a city, and could hardly be called a town ; nor did it even partake of the characteristics of a village or a hamlet.

    Kings Clipstone History Guide

    Kings Clipstone The royal heart of ancient Sherwood Forest The guide to the royal heart of ancient Sherwood £2.00 www.HeartOfAncientSherwood.co.uk The Village The village layout in 2005. The layout of Kings Clipstone has probably altered little in 1000 years. The 1630 map of the village shows it to be remarkably similar to the present day village with the houses strung out along the road between the Castle Field and the Great Pond with most of the dwellings to the north of the road with plots down to the river. It would never have been easy to make a living from the poor sandy soil. The villagers of 1630 would have had important rights to use the forest but the middle years of the 17 th century saw most of the forest around the village destroyed to produce charcoal for the iron forges. The second half of the 18th century saw the enclosure of 2000 acres of open land. The 1832 directory described the village as being in a sad state, one of the worst in Bassetlaw. As part of his irrigation scheme, the Duke of Portland demolished most of the houses on the side of the village nearest the Maun and replaced them with a model village. The semi-detached houses had a large paddock each, so that the residents, who worked on the estate, could be more self-sufficient. By 1842 the description of the village had changed to ‘ being in danger of becoming one of the neatest’. The 1630 & 1754 maps transposed onto a modern map.
