Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cotteswold Manor: Being the History of Painswick This volume has been written dvoring leisure hours won from other labours (which have not been unhelpful to it), in the desire of recovering from the Past, of many Periods, something worthy of Local remembrance, but which may have escaped, or be in the course of escaping, it; and finally, in the hope of presenting this to those who retain and are proud of their Local History. It is none the less the writers regret that, in spite of not ill-directed efforts, he has been unable to render the work as complete as he had wished to do. It will, however, prove not a little surprising to see what a number of important and even tragical figures have been associated with this quiet neighboiu -hood;including those of Earl Godwine; of the great Earl of Shrewsbury; of his ill-fated grandson, Thomas Talbot, Viscount Lisle, whose tomb, it may be, appropriated by the remains of a later forbidding personage, Sir William Kingston, K.G., Governor of the Tower, is still to be seen in Painswick Church. In addition, Charles Brandon was once here as acting Lord of the Manor; while, later, Anne Boleyn, newly a Queen, smiled through our green woodlands while hunting in the (former) Park and Longridge Wood with her terrible master, and they were accompanied by Sir John Dudley, afterwards Duke of Northumberland and father-in-law of Lady Jane Grey, himself owning a moiety in this Manor. Here, also but a few years after, Thomas Cromwell took up the Lordship from Sir Arthur Plantagenet, Lord Lisle, and had it immediately taken from him upon his attainder: and presently in his stead reigned as Lady of the Manor, Mary, Lady Kingston, who, while wife of the aforesaid Governor of the Tower of London, had given merciless evidence against her unfortunate and beautiful Royal mistress, their prisoner. Her still more ruthless step-son, Sir Anthony Kingston, succeeded her here, and left behind him a peculiarly evil fame.

Book Synopsis Religion and Society in a Cotswold Vale by : Albion M. Urdank
Download or read book Religion and Society in a Cotswold Vale written by Albion M. Urdank and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-03-29 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the English Industrial Revolution, the Vale of Nailsworth was a rural-industrial settlement and a center of evangelical Nonconformity. Why did the transition to the factory system bring deindustrialization and social decline rather than long-term advancement? Albion Urdank investigates the modernization of Nailsworth from many perspectives, revealing the experience and the mentalité of ordinary people in their ecological, economic, and social environments. His innovative approach, in the tradition of the Leicester and Annales schools, contributes to the historical literature on popular religion, secularization, local history, and European industrialization, and will appeal to a wide spectrum of interdisciplinary interests. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1990.

Book Synopsis Cotswold Arts and Crafts Architecture by : Catherine Gordon
Download or read book Cotswold Arts and Crafts Architecture written by Catherine Gordon and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2020-01-24 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1890 and 1930, Arts and Crafts architecture proliferated within the Cotswolds. The range and quality of the buildings was exceptional as the region provided the perfect environment for the Movement's ideals and principles. Arts and Crafts architects relished the robust vernacular precedent as it channelled their ideas and stimulated their imaginations. Its rational basis and dependence on craft skills had lasting value, and it was no coincidence that the most influential aspect of their work was its emphasis on conservation. The Arts and Crafts Movement in the Cotswolds has attracted much interest in recent decades, the appeal of the simple life and of traditional values detached from the pressures of modern society having as much allure now as it did a century ago. Most of these studies have referred to the work of architects in the region, but the subject has not received the specialist attention it deserves. Until now. This book examines the impact of the Movement on the Cotswold landscape, on the survival of its building traditions and on modern attitudes to building conservation. After an introductory section which outlines the Movement's origins and beliefs and its architectural principles, the main part of the book provides a guide to the general characteristics associated with Arts and Crafts building in the Cotswolds. There are separate chapters on the various types of new commission that were undertaken, from small and large country houses and cottages to village halls and almshouses, not to mention the numerous repair and remodelling jobs on existing buildings that had become derelict following the social and economic upheavals of industrialisation. The final chapter looks at the late flowering of architectural work in the region during the interwar period and beyond, and the legacy of this important body of work at a local and national level.
Download or read book The Cotswolds written by Jane Bingham and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-02-18 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its gentle hills and timeless villages, the Cotswold countryside is a vision of natural beauty and rural calm, but it is also a region rich in history. In this new addition to the Landscapes of the Imagination series, Jane Bingham offers an intriguing portrait of the Cotswolds over the centuries, ranging from ancient stone circles and ruined Roman villas to the Cotswolds today, a picturesque destination spot popular with country-weekenders, tourists, and celebrities. Readers will visit fine churches and manor houses that have survived from the Middle Ages, and tour a landscape still bearing the scars of the Civil War. The home of kings and nobles since Saxon times, the region is famous for its elegant estates, such as Blenheim Palace--England's grandest stately home--while signs of the early industrial age can be seen in its mills and factories. Artists, musicians, and writers were also drawn to this rural paradise, from William Shakespeare and William Morris to T.S. Eliot and Ralph Vaughn Williams. Bingham captures it all in her charming portrait of this glorious spot in the heart of southern England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By any standards, Admiral Sir John Treacher is an exceptional man who has had the fullest of lives. Old enough to have served and be sunk in the War, he went to be a naval aviator flying in the Korean War. His career took ff too and he rose rapidly to be the captain of the aircraft carrier HMS Eagle and soon after Commander in Chief Channel. To everyone's surprised he left the Navy when all the indications were that he was about to become First Sea Lord. For many this would have meant a quiet retirement. Not so here! A number of influential appointments quickly followed including controversially Chairmanship of Playboy Club UK at a critical time for their vital gaming interests. He was deeply embroiled in the highly political Westland drama which resulted in the resignation of Cabinet ministers. Today as he approaches 80 he is still an active and influential figure in the aeronautical industry.
Book Synopsis Olde Cotswold Punishments by : Nell Darby
Download or read book Olde Cotswold Punishments written by Nell Darby and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Look beyond the pretty cottages and gentle landscapes of the Cotswolds, and you will find a dark history of crime and punishment. From child thieves, poachers, conmen, prostitutes and would-be suicides to bigamists, highwaymen and murderers, the Cotswolds has had its fair share of criminals – treated in what appears to us today to be an arbitrary and often unduly harsh manner by judges and juries. What crimes were committed in this rural society in the past, and how were they punished? This book looks at the variety of punishments bestowed to miscreants – from being hanged from a portable gallows at the scene of a crime to transportation or hard labour – and why some were punished more than others. Evidence is taken from contemporary sources: prison records, newspaper accounts and broadsides that celebrated the lives and deaths of local characters. It is a fascinating and shocking read.

Can these two sudden soul mates risk their hearts for a love that has yet to be tried and tested? Get swept away by this poignant and heartwarming story, set in beautiful Wychwood-on-Lea, in the English Cotswolds. And look forward to four more books set in Willoughby Close, where everyday miracles and happily-ever-afters are guaranteed.
