  • Crowland Abbey

    Crowland Abbey

    Crowland Abbey. West Doorway. To show particularly the Quatrefoil illustrating its traditional history. (From a negative by Mr. H. E. Cooper.) 74 CROWLAND ABBEY. By Frances M. Page, B.A. (Paper read to the members of the Northamptonshire Natural History Society on the occasion of their visit to Crowland, July 18th, 1929.) Perhaps no place that has watched the passing of twelve centuries can show to modern generations so little contemporary history as Crowland. All its original charters were destroyed by fire in 1091, and of the chronicles, only two survive—one of the eighth and the other of the twelfth century. Several histories have been compiled by its monks and abbots who worked from legend and tradition, but the most detailed, that of Ingulf, the famous first Norman Abbot, has been recently exposed as a forgery of much later date. But in the carvings upon its West front, Crowland carries for ever an invaluable record of its past, which posterity may read and interpret. The coming of Guthlac, the patron saint, to Crowland in the eighth century, is one of the most picturesque incidents of early history, for there is an austerity and mystery in this first hermit of the fen country, seeking a place for meditation and self-discipline in the swamps which were shunned with terror by ordinary men. “Then,” says a chronicler, “he came to a great marsh, situated upon the eastern shore of the Mercians; and diligently enquired the nature of the place. A certain man told him that in this vast swamp there was a remote island, which many had tried to inhabit but had failed on account of the terrible ghosts there.

  • Spalding Prison

    Spalding Prison

    SPALDING PRISON Her Majesty’s Prison for the parts of Holland and Kesteven By David Gray Officially known as “Her Majesty’s Prison for the parts of Holland and Kesteven” it adjoined the Sessions House off the Sheep Market. It was improved in 1848-52 and enlarged to have 95 separate cells, airing yards, and workshops. EARLY HISTORY OF SPALDING PRISON Although there are cells underneath the Sessions House, it was never a Prison. The Prison was in Broad Street, built in 1619 as a House Of Correction, for the ‘keeping and correcting and setting to work of rogues, vagabonds, sturdie beggars and other vagrant idle and disorderly persons’. It was used until 1834 and then demolished and the site partly used for the Methodist Church. SPALDING PRISON IN THE SHEEP MARKET A new Prison was built next to the Sessions House in the Sheep Market, which was completed in 1836. It had all the conveniences, a human treadmill for the prisoners to walk on to grind their own flour, lots of cells for solitary confinement and 48 sleeping cells and a Chapel. Human Treadmill similar to the one that would have been used in the Prison Executions took place publicly in Spalding Market Place. The last man to be hung was in 1742, and his body afterwards “Gibbeted”, (hung in chains) on Vernat’s Bank. Spalding also used Stocks (heavy timber frame with holes for confining the ankles and sometimes the wrists) and a Pillory (a device made of a wooden or metal framework erected on a post, with holes for securing the head and hands) , and a Tumbril (a two- wheeled cart that tipped up, used to transport prisoners) .
