  • Bishops Hull
    © University of London 2019 Text by Mary Siraut, Victoria County History, Somerset BISHOPS HULL Before the mid 19th century the ancient parish of Bishops Hull was not only a rural parish west of Taunton including the village of Bishops Hull, the large hamlet of Rumwell, the smaller hamlets of Fideoak, with Upcott and Barr, and Roughmoor and a few isolated farms and mills along the river but also the area of west Taunton roughly bounded by the Tone as far east as and including the Town Mills, the east and south walls of the castle precinct, the road to Wilton with an extension along the west side of Cann Street as far as Shuttern and the Sherford stream on the south west. Only on the north west did this urban enclave adjoin the rest of the parish. The area probably formed part of the original settlement of Taunton comprising the minster, cemeteries and possibly a royal hall. It was presumably transferred to Bishops Hull about the time of the construction of the castle in the 11th century possibly to keep the castle outside the borough although Wilton was closer.1 Taunton Castle and its outer precinct, now called Castle Green, the areas later known as Tangier and Stepswater, and St Paul’s medieval chapel and its surroundings were all in Bishops Hull parish. By the post- medieval period if not before that caused difficulties. In 1757 for example concern was expressed that troops had been billeted in bad houses in distant parts of the parish as well as in the Taunton area as intended.2 Although not formally constituted as a separate parish until 1885 it was rated separately by the 1840s when it was known as the Town Division as opposed to the main part of the parish called the Country Division.3 The town area until the 1880s was bounded by the river Tone on the north, Mill Lane and the outer ditch or moat of the castle on the east and south-east.

The Journal welcomes contributions of articles and notes on subjects of relevance to English place-names. The English Place-Name Society (EPNS) was established in 1923 to conduct a county-by-county survey of the place-names of England. To date, the Survey has produced 90 volumes.

  • Parish of Chardstock 1911 Census Rg14/2501
    PARISH OF CHARDSTOCK 1911 CENSUS RG14/2501 The census was carried out on the night of Sunday April 2nd, 1911 and followed the format of the previous censuses taken since 1871. The head of the household still had to be defined as did the relationship to the head of each person staying in the house that night. The gender of each person was also recorded. Accurate ages were required throughout and were taken from the person’s last birthday. For infants under one year, the age was recorded either in months (m), weeks (w) or days (d). “Where Born” had to be completed by giving the county and town or parish of birth. The expanded list of infirmities introduced in 1871 was retained, but has been blanked out on the copies of the census now available in the public domain. The number of rooms occupied by each household had to be recorded. The Occupational Status of each person (if applicable) had to be shown as Employer (Er), Worker (W) or Own Account (OA). Also people working at Home (H) had to be recorded. New features introduced for 1911 were a requirement to record the postal address of the dwelling. Also, married women, whose husbands were still living, had to record the length of the marriage in years , the number of children born to the marriage and the number still living when the census was completed. It should be remembered that in 1896 county boundary changes resulted in the transfer of Chardstock from Dorset to Devon and Wambrook from Dorset to Somerset.
