COALMINING, POPULATION AND ENCLOSURE IN THE SEASALE COLLIERY DISTRICTS OF DURHAM (NORTHERN DURHAM), 1551-1810: A STUDY IN HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY A thesis in two volumes, submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Durham, 1989 by ROBERT IAN HODGSON (Lecturer in Geography, University of Manchester, and research student in the Department of Geography, University of Durham) VOLUME ONE (5 -3 APR1990 ABSTRACT COALMINING, POPULATION AND ENCLOSURE IN THE SEASALE COLLIERY DISTRICTS OF DURHAM (NORTHERN DURHAM), 1551-18101 A STUDY IN HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY Robert Ian Hodgson By reference to a wide range of sources and with an especial, but deliberately not exclusive, concern for events in Northern Durham, an attempt is made to reconstruct basic patterns of coalmining, population and enclosure. A second major task is to provide a framework of explanation for these patterns: to examine the factors which may have created and, in turn, destroyed them, and to explore ways in which the patterns may have been interrelated or interdependent. Rising demand for coal throughout the period 1551-1810, emanating chiefly from London, stimulated population growth within the mining districts, and the rise of an increasingly specialized industrial work force, in turn, put pressure upon agriculture to reform its technical and organizational structures in order to ease the task'of providing more locally grown food. Developments were not as simple as might be assumed from the above scenario, however. The variable attitudes and actions of decision makers were no less crucial than the uncertainties of natural resource endowment in determining the pace and location of developments through time and space, period and place. Landownership emerges as a dominant factor in understanding contrasts and Durham. similarities in the changing economic landscape of Northern An appreciation of the richness and variety of regional experience is essential to the formulation of descriptive or explanatory models of economic and social change. 11 COPYRIGHT The copyright of this thesis rests with the author.

    EDITORIAL Another year has come and gone, and we trust that 1989 will be a happy and prosperous one for all our members. If our Society is to continue to flourish, however, it is essential that more members should play an active part in running its affairs. Ken Brown, our Secretary since 1983 (and acting Programme Organiser for the last year), is resigning at the Annual General Meeting in May, and Irene Blackburn, who is responsible for the Members' Interests and Second Time Around sections of the Journal, will be giving up her position as Research Editor later in the year. We are very grateful to them both for all the work they have done on our behalf. In addition to these two posts, we are still short of a Programme Organiser. If you know of anyone who might be willing to take on any of these jobs please let Ken Brown know as soon as possible - otherwise the Society may come to a grinding halt. One of the most important events of 1988 as far as the Society was concerned was the publication of the long-awaited Directory of Members' Interests. Its production entailed a great deal of hard work on the part of those responsible, and it also placed a severe strain on the Society's finances. In view of the fact that it was initially offered free to members (only the cost of postage and packing being charged), the demand for copies was disappointingly small. Copies are still available, and although now priced £2.75 each (post free to addresses in the U.K.), they are very good value.

My dear Sir, I was at Hodbarrow yesterday, and discussed the matter of the “tubbing”, with Mr. Barratt – We think, if you will allow us to do so, the best way will be for us to run up to Newcastle to see you, when we could see the Plans, you have so kindly offered to show us, and also [second page, sideways on, starts here] see Sir William Armstrong's people about making the “tubbing” - Would it be convenient for you to see us in Newcastle, either on Tuesday or Wednesday next the 8th or 9th inst? If so, where and at what hour would suit you best, I find we could get to Newcastle at 8.50 on the previous night- Yours very truly Edw. Wadham. Thomas E. Forster Esq.

Mr Buddle, Though I have not had the pleasure of knowing you personally yet the honourable testimony borne to your Character by Messrs Pearson & Mowbray, and others on whose judgment I can rely, has induced me to recommend you to the Bishop of Durham as a fit person to be occasionally employed in viewing his Collieries and making the necessary inquiries into the value and other circumstances respecting the same and as that of Lanchester, now in Lease to the Earl of Sefton, lies in your Neighbourhood, I beg leave to trouble you to inspect the same and to obtain every information you can of the present annual profits accruing therefrom and when you have done so I shall be glad to see you at this place, or to be favoured with your Sentiments upon the subject; in the mean time, I am, Mr Buddle, Your very obed. hble. Servt. Willm. Emm Auckland Castle Octor. 14th 1792 In Consequence of the above Request I viewed the Huttons Seam Workings in the Bogg and Machine Pits at Lanchester Common, where, although the Bords were driven with the utmost Regularity, at the Width of 4 yards, yet, as in the Bogg Pit the Winnings were only 9 Yards, and in the Machine Pit only 8 ditto, I objected to that Mode of Working, on Account of the great Loss of Mine that would follow, as none of the Pillars, so left, could now be wrought to any Extent.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.
