It is arranged on the same principle as The Complete Peerage (eight vols., 8vo., 1884-98), by the same Editor, save that the more convenient form of an alphabetical arrangement has, in this case, had to be abandoned for a chronological one; the former being practically impossible in treating of a dignity in which every holder may (and very many actually do) bear a different name from the grantee.

(2) Information and Analysis Derbyshire County Council and Derby City Council (the Councils) are working together to prepare a joint Minerals Local Plan, the Derbyshire and Derby Minerals Local Plan, which will cover the geographical area of Derbyshire and Derby, excluding the Peak District National Park. The Plan period is to 2036. An important aspect of this Plan will be to ensure there is a steady and adequate supply of sand and gravel. This is essential material for the construction industry and is vital for maintaining economic prosperity. This supply will be maintained through existing planning permissions and the provision of new sites. This is constrained by the fact that minerals can only be quarried where they occur which, for Derbyshire and Derby means the sites located in the alluvial sand and gravel area of the Trent, Derwent and Lower Dove Valleys in the south of the Plan area. A revision to national planning policy in 2019 stipulated that local plans should cover a 15 year period from the time of adoption.

ISLAND AND FEN RECLUSES When saynt Jone was in the yle of Pathmos, than God schewed hym his pryvytees.—Richard the Hermit No self-imposed barrier was so complete as that of the island-recluse. Surrounded as he was by an expanse of sea and sky, “the secrecy of solitude” was his. Only a devoted friend or an earnest penitent would venture forth to visit him who was sea-bound, or encircled by some wellnigh impassable morass. The hermit-inhabited islands of England and Wales include Farne and Coquet, in the north ; and in the west, Bardsey, off the coast of Carnarvon, and Holmes, St. Tiriac’s Rock, and the other islets of the Severn. I. ISLES OF THE SEA (a) Farne and Croquet.—About two miles from the Northumbrian coast lay a bare inhospitable rock which became famous as the abode of solitary saints. When St. Aidan, the island-monk of Iona, was Bishop of Lindisfarne, he used occasionally to retire to Farne for undisturbed prayer. Cuthbert afterwards sought in this spot the secret solitude for which he longed. It was a desert island, and ill- suited for human habitation.
