As a young boy I watched cartoons and TV series which involved or were centred around castles, like Alladin, Dag Sinterklaas, Princess Sissi, De vloek van Woestewolf, the Belgian series Kulderzipken and probably many more. I was fascinated by castles, fantasised about being a king and I often drew or invented my own castle. I remember getting a book with pictures of German castles from my grandfather. I was delighted and intrigued. Unfortunately, I lost the book and I still regret losing it. The love for castles never really faded. At the time of writing this introduction I am watching the British series Merlin, which is set in and around the castle of Camelot and I still secretly dream of living in a castle one day. I drew the image on the front page specifically for this paper and it is inspired on St Michael’s Mount, as it was the first castle I came across while doing the research. In 2009 I went to Halmstad, Sweden, for my educational stay. The original idea of the educational stay was for students to go abroad and live in a country with English as its mother tongue. Due to an organisational error of the NHL a small group of classmates and I were not able to go to Leeds or any other city in an English speaking country. We could then choose between a place in Finland or Sweden and we chose Sweden. In Halmstad I started working on my master project, as this final project was called back then. It was focused on the Swedish school system. It was difficult to find good sources and eventually I lost my motivation. When I was offered the chance of making a fresh start with the master project I knew I wanted to research the history of British castles and their current use. Times have changed tremendously, it is the very nature of life. Most aspects of life change, methods improve, cultures evolve and buildings fall apart and get replaced within decades or within a century. Some things, however, seem to survive the centuries. Castles are an eXample of something that can survive centuries. Although the buildings managed to remain, life in castles must have changed greatly. In this report I want to research how life in British castles has changed over the centuries. This will be a factual report, comparing life in British castles around the Middle Ages and present-day life. This leads me to the main question of this paper: How has life in British castles changed from the Middle Ages to now? In order to answer this question I have to delve into these subquestions first: 1. When do we speak of a castle? 2. Which, and how many, castles have survived the centuries in Great Britain? 3. Which functions did castles in Great Britain have in the Middle ages? 4. Which functions do castles in Great Britain have nowadays? 3 Chapter 1 – Castle, a definition 1.1 Introduction The first thing that comes to mind at the very start of this research is the definition of the word castle. What is a castle? It is the first aspect that needs to be looked into. The definition of “castle” influences the answers to all questions in this research. At first glance this might seem to be an easy subject. However, it is more difficult than it would appear. This chapter eXplores narrow and broader definitions of the word. The interpretation chosen in the conclusion of this chapter will provide a set of characteristics that can be used to draw up the list of medieval castles needed in chapter two. This list will in turn provide the basis for the sub-questions in chapters three and four and it lays the foundation for answering the main question: how has life in British castles changed from the Middle Ages to now? 1.2 Dictionary definitions The online Merriam Webster dictionary is a respected online dictionary. The American company was founded in 1831 and is known for its diverse range of language works. The full definition of “castle” by the Merriam Webster dictionary (Castle, n.d.): 1 a : a large fortified building or set of buildings b : a massive or imposing house 2 : a retreat safe against intrusion or invasion The Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English is a dictionary for advanced learners of English and it is used by the entire English language department of the NHL University of Applied Sciences. This dictionary defines the word as follows (Summers, D. (Ed.), 2003): a very large strong building, built in the past as a safe place that could be easily defended against attack. In addition to the online Merriam Webster dictionary and the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, the Dutch dictionaries Kramers Handwoordenboek Nederlands (Coenders, H. (Ed.), 1998), Van Dale Online Woordenboek (Van Dale Online Woordenboek, n.d.) and Koenen Woordenboek Nederlands (De Boer, W. Th. (Ed.), 1999) were consulted. Most dictionaries define a castle as a fortified building or just as a large and beautiful house. These are mostly very short descriptions and as a result they are usually vague. A castle is not just a large and strong house, or is it? 1.3 Broader definitions The Encyclopaedia Britannica 1961

Importantly, the Plan sets out a clear and strong strategy for meeting the future needs of the county’s communities over the next decade. By focussing development on our market towns and largest villages, it provides the direction and certainty to support investment and enable economic opportunities to be seized, to grow and support viable service centres and for housing development to accommodate our growing and changing household needs.

  • Alchemists, Pirates, and Pilgrims: Towards a Revised Model of English Knighthood in the Lancastrian Era
    Alchemists, Pirates, and Pilgrims: Towards a Revised Model of English Knighthood in the Lancastrian Era GILBERT BOGNER In the stained glass of Ashton parish church, Lancashire, may be seen the kneeling figure of Sir Thomas Ashton who died circa 1458. This fifteenth-century knight is gloriously depicted there adorned in a warrior’s full plate armour; around his neck he wears the Lancastrian ‘SS’ collar, given to loyal adherents of that regime. In spite of this rather conventional iconography, however, Sir Thomas was a very unconventional knight. For instead of pursuing a military or political career, as had his father and grandfather, Sir Thomas seems to have devoted himself to the arcane and mysterious science of alchemy, not a pursuit one normally associates with knighthood.1 In the generalisations of historians and in the popular imagination the medieval English knight is commonly presented in terms of military activities, estate management, and local administration and parliamentary service. One recent popular work, for example, introduces fifteenth-century English knights as primarily military men, yet allows that ‘many now preferred the lifestyle of the landowner, man-about-town and parliamentary representative’.2 There is of course no doubt that knights spent a great deal of time and energy engaged in these affairs, as evidenced by the sheer number of sources devoted to them, especially from the later medieval period. It is there, however, that descriptions of knighthood usually end. We are left with the impression that the life of the fifteenth-century English knight consisted of roughly equal measures of going to war, serving as an office-holder and commissioner, and maintaining a certain level of income through the defence and increase of landed estates.

    8 THE FAMILY OF L’ESTRANGE AND THE CONQUEST OF WALES1 The Rt Hon The Lord Crickhowell PC Abstract The L’Estrange family were important Marcher lords of Wales from the twelfth century to the Acts of Union in the sixteenth century. Originating in Brittany, the family made their home on the Welsh borders and were key landowners in Shropshire where they owned a number of castles including Knockin. This lecture looks at the service of several generations of the family to the English Crown in the thirteenth century, leading up to the death of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd in 1282. With its practice of intermarriage with noble Welsh families, the dynasty of L’Estrange exemplifies the hybrid nature of Marcher society in the Middle Ages. Two points by way of introduction: the first to explain that what follows is taken from my book, The Rivers Join.2 This was a family history written for the family. It describes how two rivers joined when Ann and I married. Among the earliest tributaries traced are those of my Prichard and Thomas ancestors in Wales at about the time of the Norman Conquest; and on my wife’s side the river representing the L’Estranges, rising in Brittany, flowing first through Norfolk and then roaring through the Marches to Wales with destructive force. My second point is to make clear that I will not repeat all the acknowledgements made in the book, except to say that I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the late Winston Guthrie Jones QC, the author of the paper which provided much of the material for this lecture.

  • Songs of the Sea in Northumberland
    Songs of the Sea in Northumberland Destinations: Northumberland & England Trip code: ALMNS HOLIDAY OVERVIEW Sea shanties were working songs which helped sailors move in unison on manual tasks like hauling the anchor or hoisting sails; they also served to raise spirits.

Taking inspiration from these traditional songs, as well as those with a modern nautical connection, this break allows you to lend your voice to create beautiful harmonies singing as part of a group. Join us to sing with a tidal rhythm and flow and experience the joy of singing in unison. With a beachside location in sight of the sea, we might even take our singing outside to see what the mermaids think!

  • English Coast Defences
    ENGLISH COAST DEFENCES GEORGE CLINCH PART I ENGLISH COAST DEFENCES PREHISTORIC CAMPS Round the coast of England there are many prehistoric earthworks of great extent and strength. These fall generally under the heads of hill-top fortresses and promontory camps. The works comprised under the former head are so arranged as to take the greatest possible advantage of natural hill-tops, often of large size. On the line where the comparatively level top developed into a more or less precipitous slope a deep ditch was dug, and the earth so removed was in most cases thrown outwards so as to form a rampart which increased the original difficulties of the sloping hill-side. The latter type of earthwork, called promontory camps from their natural conformation, were strengthened by the digging of a deep ditch, so as to cut off the promontory from the main table-land from which it projected, and in some cases the sides of the camp were made more precipitous by artificial scarping. An examination of these types of earthworks leads to the conclusion that they were probably tribal enclosures for the safe-guarding of cattle, etc.; that, strictly speaking, they were not military works at all, and, in any case, had no relation to national defence against enemies coming over-sea. One finds in different parts of the country a prevalent tradition that the Romans occupied the more ancient British hill-top strongholds, and the name “Caesar‟s Camp” is popularly applied to many of them. If such an occupation really took place it was, in all probability, only of a temporary character.
