A 1 Sir Richard Tunstall (1427-1492), Lord of Bentham, Beaufort Companye Newsletter Yorkshire and Thurland Castle Richard Tunstall first appears in Sept 1452 when he was appointed as a Squire of the Body to Henry VI with an annuity of 40 marks and by Feb 1455 he had been knighted and made the King’s Carver. He appears to have received a pardon in November 1455 by the temporary pro-Yorkist government but his continued loyalty to the Lancastrian regime, following York’s dismissal, resulted in a series of appointments including Chamber- lain of Chester, Master and Warden of the King’s Mints, Chamberlain of the Receipt of the Exchequer and Steward of Kendal. He fought at Wake- field and St Albans and was issued with the Commission of Array for Knaresborough prior to Towton from where he escaped to Scotland with the Duke of Somerset. During the subsequent war in the north he led an army of Scots across the border and besieged Carlisle (1461), captured and then surrendered Naworth Castle (Sept 1462), captured Bamburgh (Oct 1462) and was present during the siege of Dunstanburgh from where he escaped in Dec 1462. He fought alongside Somerset at Hedgeley Moor and Hexham in 1464 but unlike the Duke he once again escaped.

Ed- ward IV later appointed him to the commis- sions of the peace for Wiltshire, Dorset, Hamp- shire and Somerset and in 1477 was an ambas- sador to the French Court. In June 1483 Tunstall was appointed as Deputy of the Castle of Guisnes, under Sir Humphrey Talbot and was made a Knight of the Garter by Richard III by the end of that year. Tunstall appears to have continued to support Richard III and in May 1484 he was appointed as Lieutenant of Calais Castle and tasked with the rebuilding of decayed fortifications at Guisnes. At this time he is also recorded as being an important ship-owner in the Pale. 2 Beaufort Companye Newsletter lands and titles but the city was strong and held out for longer than ex- THE SCARLET CLOSES pected.

In around the year 1200 the manor of Codnor became the property of Henry De Grey though his marriage to Isolda Bardolf, and it was Henry who started the construction of a new and much stronger stone castle that would be the seat of power for the De Greys of Codnor for the next 300 years.

In general Iperceived those Peers of theirs were all Royal men of a sort, withminds fullof justice, valour and humanity, and all kinds of qualities that men ought to have who rule over others.

  • Derby Museums Collections Development Policy 2014
    Derby Museums Collections Development Policy 2014 Name of museum: Derby Museums (comprising Derby Museum and Art Gallery, The Silk Mill and Pickford’s House) Name of governing body: Derby Museums Trust Date on which this policy was approved by governing body: November 2014 Policy review procedure: The collections development policy will be published and reviewed from time to time, at least once every five years. Date at which this policy is due for review: 2019 Arts Council England will be notified of any changes to the collections development policy, and the implications of any such changes for the future of collections. 1. Relationship to other relevant policies/plans of the organisation: 1.1. The museum’s statement of purpose is: The vision for Derby Museums is to shape the way in which Derby is understood, the way in which the city projects itself, the way in which people from all places are inspired to see themselves as the next generation of innovators, makers and creators. The purpose of Derby Museums is to inspire people to become part of a living story of world class creativity, innovation and making. 1.2. The governing body will ensure that both acquisition and disposal are carried out openly and with transparency. 1.3. By definition, the museum has a long-term purpose and holds collections in trust for the benefit of the public in relation to its stated objectives. The governing body therefore accepts the principle that sound curatorial reasons must be established before consideration is given to any acquisition to the collection, or the disposal of any items in the museum’s collection.

Martyn led us from Jacksdale, initially past the historic railway site just a few steps from the car park. We were able to see the signs of the early tramway, built to serve the iron industry. The tramway conveyed coal in horse-drawn wagons from the Portland pits via the Mexborough pits to Jacksdale. There, the coal was loaded onto barges for transport along the Cromford Canal. There is a good interpretation board in the canal basin, the basin now filled-in but still visible and the unusual tramway embankment made of slag-blocks from the The NEDIAS group with slag blocks of Portland Tramway in the iron foundry. Martyn suggests that the use of slag background. blocks for such an application could be unique. The Midland Railway came to the site in 1845 and later in 1875 came the Great Northern Railway, cutting a track through Jacksdale with an enormous twenty arch viaduct. High on top of the viaduct was ‘Selston & Codnor Park Station’, later named ‘Jacksdale & Codnor Park’. The viaduct was demolished in 1974, long after the Station had been axed in the great railway execution.

  • A Local History of Ironville & Codnor Park
    A Local History of Ironville & Codnor Park 1 In the Beginning Before Ironville or Codnor Park there was a place called Smithycote. Smithycote was a settlement in the Codnor Park area, mentioned in the Domesday Book. The names of the Anglo Saxon residents and other information is also detailed. Now “long lost” probably “disappearing” when Codnor Castle was constructed and the surrounding parkland developed. Codnor Park including what is now known as The Forge was set up by the de Grey family who were granted the area by William the Conqueror. For their part in the Norman Conquest of England Close to the village is one of only two medieval castles retaining its original medieval architecture in the whole of the county of Derbyshire, (the only other being Peveril Castle in the Peak District). Codnor Castle has a very rich history and the castle site dates back to the 12th century. The castle was the home and power base for one of medieval England’s most powerful families for 300 years - the De Grey family, also known as the Baron's Grey of Codnor. This medieval fortress was once grand enough to play host to royal visits including that of King Edward II in 1342. The Castle is open to the Public every second Sunday of the month throughout the year. The de Greys were loyal to the King whoever he was (they fought for Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth and ingratiated themselves to the victor Henry VII, and so their castle survived when others such as Duffield Castle were destroyed in 1267 after the 2nd Barons War.
