M.DCC.XCVIII. <II> <blank> <III> TO THE HONORABLE AND RIGHT REVEREND BROWNLOW, LORD BISHOP OF WINCHESTER, PRELATE OF THE MOST NOBLE ORDER OF THE GARTER, &c. MY LORD, IT is with much respect that I make use of the permission, you have given me of prefixing your name to this volume, which cannot but stamp a credit on it, much beyond its merits. The honor your Lordship has done me in the encouragement of my History from the first publication of it, and this <IV> continuance of it is a still further mark of your par= tiality to a county with which you are still materially connected by the relationship of your noble family, their large extended property and principal residence in it, a partiality strengthened by your Lordship’s having presided over the chapter of the metropoli= tical church of Canterbury, when you first honored me with your notice and where the liberal conduct and affability of dean NORTH is still held in a pleasing and grateful remembrance. Permit me, my Lord, to return you my most respectful thanks for these re= peated marks of your favor. That your Lordship may long continue to make happy that diocese, over which you now so worthily preside, are the fervent wishes of, my Lord, Your Lordship’s much obliged, and most obedient servant, EDWARD HASTED.

THE immediate neighbourhood of Allington Castle appears to have been a very ancient site of human habitation. It lies close to what must have been an important ford over the Medway, at a point which was approximately the head of low-tide navigation. The road from the east, which debouches on the right bank of the river close beside the present Malta Inn, led straight to the ford, and its continua- tion on the other bank can be traced as a deep furrow through the Lock Wood, and almost as far as the church, though in part it has recently been obliterated by the dejection of quarry debris. This ancient road may be traced up to the Pilgrims' Way, from which it branched off. In the neighbourhood of the castle, at points not exactly recorded, late Celtic burials have been discovered containing remains of the Aylesford type. Where there were burials there was no doubt a settlement. In Roman days the site was likewise well occupied, and the buried ruins of a Roman villa are marked on the ordnance map in the field west of the castle. The site seems to be indicated by a level place on the sloping hill, and when the land in question falls into my hands I propose to make the researches necessary to reveal the situation and character of the villa.

  • The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575
    The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575 Elizabeth Murray A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts United Faculty of Theology The Melbourne College of Divinity October, 2007 Abstract Most English Reformation studies have been about the far north or the wealthier south-east. The poorer areas of the midlands and west have been largely passed over as less well-documented and thus less interesting. This thesis studying the north of the county of Shropshire demonstrates that the generally accepted model of the change from Roman Catholic to English Reformed worship does not adequately describe the experience of parishioners in that county. Acknowledgements I am grateful to Dr Craig D’Alton for his constant support and guidance as my supervisor. Thanks to Dr Dolly Mackinnon for introducing me to historical soundscapes with enthusiasm. Thanks also to the members of the Medieval Early Modern History Cohort for acting as a sounding board for ideas and for their assistance in transcribing the manuscripts in palaeography workshops. I wish to acknowledge the valuable assistance of various Shropshire and Staffordshire clergy, the staff of the Lichfield Heritage Centre and Lichfield Cathedral for permission to photograph churches and church plate. Thanks also to the Victoria & Albert Museum for access to their textiles collection. The staff at the Shropshire Archives, Shrewsbury were very helpful, as were the staff of the State Library of Victoria who retrieved all the volumes of the Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society. I very much appreciate the ongoing support and love of my family.

  • The Cathedral Priory of St. Andrew, Rochester
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society THE CATHEDRAL PRIORY OF ST. ANDREW, ROCHESTER By ANNE M. OAKLEY, M.A. THE church of St. Andrew the Apostle, Rochester, was founded by Ethelbert, King of Kent, as a college for a small number of secular canons under Justus, Bishop of Rochester, in A.D. 604. Very httle is known about the history of this house. It never seems to have had much influence outside its own walls, and though it possessed considerable landed estates, seems to have been relatively small and poor. It also suffered at the hands of the Danes. Bishops Justus, Romanus, Pauhnus and Ithamar were all remarkable men, but after Bishop Putta's transla- tion to Hereford in 676, very Httle is heard of Rochester. Their bishop, Siweard, is not mentioned as having been at Hastings with King Harold as were many of the Saxon bishops and abbots, and the house put up no opposition to William I when he seized their lands and gave them to his half brother Odo, Bishop of Bayeux, whom he had created Earl of Kent. The chroniclers say that the house was destitute, and that, when Siweard died in 1075, it was barely able to support the five canons on the estabHshment.1 Four years after his conquest of England, Wilham I invited his friend Lanfranc, Prior of Caen and a former monk of Bee in Normandy, to be bis archbishop at Canterbury. Lanfranc's task was specific: to reorganize EngHsh monasticism on the pattern of Bee; to develop a strict cloistered monasticism, but one of a kind that was not entirely cut off by physical barriers from the Hfe of the rest of the church.

The interest with which I have read his pages will I am sure be shared by all who have at heart the well-being of an Institution which occupies a unique place in English history, although happily there is not anything unique nowadays in the endeavour which the Magdalen Hospital makes in face of a gigantic evil. The story Mr. Compston tells gives abundant evidence of the change for the better in public opinion regarding this crying wrong and its remedy. It shows too the growth of a sounder judg- ment as to the methods of dealing with it. For every reason it is right that this book should have been written, and Mr.

The booklet will contain a mixture of information about the castle you have chosen and information about the general changes made to medieval castles over time. Some information will be special to your castle and sometimes it will be about castles in general – this is fine. If you follow the boxes below, it should be straightforward. Presentation: You can present your work in a variety of ways: writing, pictures, diagrams and maps – there is no right or wrong way of doing this, simply present the information in your favourite way. The work must be handed in clearly named and with the teacher and teaching group also clearly indicated. All pages need to be secured either with either staples, paper clips, spine binder or be in a soft wallet-style folder. Please, no hard backed folders. Please do not ‘cut and paste’ information from the internet. The questions have been designed in such a way that ‘cutting and pasting’ information will not answer them. You may however cut and paste pictures and diagrams. Task One: Choosing a castle to study. (Max. 35 minutes) Using the library or the internet to choose a medieval castle to study. Pick a castle that has plenty of information about it – some even feature on ‘You-Tube’. Choosing a local castle is a good idea. You could even visit it as part of your investigation. Our local suggestions are: Bodiam Castle, Canterbury Castle, Dover Castle, Rochester Castle or Tonbridge Castle.
