Book Synopsis Exploring Green Lanes and the Stories They Tell - South and South-East Devon by : Valerie Belsey
Download or read book Exploring Green Lanes and the Stories They Tell - South and South-East Devon written by Valerie Belsey and published by Green. This book was released on 2008-09-11 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a chance to leave the car behind and penetrate deep into the South Devon countryside with only the birds for company. Valerie Belsey has gathered together 50 walks which take you through wooded slopes, high heathland, river valleys, sheltered coves, exposed headlands and rolling grassland. She looks at the history of these routes, and the stories that surround them; the smugglers ways in from the coast, the mine workers who had to walk a long way to their quarries, the lace makers who trudged through the lanes bringing lace to Honiton and the drovers moving their animals from one farm to the next. Featured on the walks are castles and ancient monuments, and lively historical heroes such as Thomas Wakley, founder of The Lancet, Cavaliers fleeing from Roundheads, a poet seeking an Ancient Mariner and some tanners still working in a small town based industry. These 50 lanes readily complement those already explored in Exploring Green Lanes in the South Hams and lead the walker forth once again into the ëlabyrinth of brambly burrow lanesí (with only a bus ticket to protect you!)
Book Synopsis The Green Lanes of England by : Valerie R. Belsey
Download or read book The Green Lanes of England written by Valerie R. Belsey and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English countryside was once traversed by a network of green lanes, in use from prehistoric times. They were the routes for Roman legions, mediaeval travelers, tradesmen, drovers, and miners with their wares. Such footpaths, bridleways and long-distance trails are a part of our living history. The Green Lanes of England explores the history and present state of our remaining network of green lanes. The future of green lanes in our besieged landscape is considered on a local and national basis, and the opinions of conflicting user groups and county councils are also discussed.

Book Synopsis Exploring Green Lanes in North and North-West Devon by : Valerie Belsey
Download or read book Exploring Green Lanes in North and North-West Devon written by Valerie Belsey and published by Green Books. This book was released on 2008-04-17 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The green lanes of Devon have been walked by those who had to do so to earn their daily bread: from the silver mine workers of Combe Martin, the poachers of Littleham, the wool jobbers of Exmoor, the glovers of Torrington, the clay miners of Peters Marland, the Bible Christian farm worker preachers of North Lew, the rebel Captain Swing rioters of Swimbridge, the potters of Fremington ñ to Ernest Bevin, the farm labouring son of Copplestone who eventually became Foreign Secretary. Exploring Green Lanes in North and North-West Devon lists 50 walks, each one provided with public transport information, historical and ecological facts, and clues for children to discover fascinating facts en route. Some of these walks are not circular; most are linked to bus and train routes, the author's mode of travel when writing the book. The explorations go through many different habitats: coastal areas, moorland, valley bottoms, ridgeways, harroways and woodlands. The maps are based on Ordnance Survey maps, fifty or more years old, showing clearly the industries once in place. But although these have often disappeared, the pattern of the lanes remains the same today. The fifty explorations stand as a good introduction to ëthe labyrinth of brambly burrow lanesí which parcel up the Devonshire landscape.
Book Synopsis Landscape History and Rural Society in Southern England by : Eric L. Jones
Download or read book Landscape History and Rural Society in Southern England written by Eric L. Jones and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book applies an economic and environmental perspective to the history of landscape and the rural economy, highlighting their inter-connections through specific case studies. After explaining how the author made his discoveries and when they started, it analyses relations between documentary and landscape evidence. It is based on exceptional first-hand observation of a dozen sites and close consideration of topics in the ecological and economic history of southern England. They range from reclaiming chalk down-land, occupying low-lying heaths and reconstructing parkland, to wool-stapling and the manufacture of gunstocks for the African slave trade. Additional themes include the tension between ecology and institutions in decisions about the location of economic activity; the decay of communal farming ahead of enclosure; and other interesting puzzles in rural economic history. This book offers an original approach to questions in economic history through its synthesis of different types of evidence. It will be of interest to a diverse range of readers because it addresses how economic change was registered in the landscape, and how that change was influenced by landscape. It is a book with highly original features, contributing simultaneously to economic, agricultural, environmental, and landscape history.

Book Synopsis Landed Estates and Rural Inequality in English History by : Eric L. Jones
Download or read book Landed Estates and Rural Inequality in English History written by Eric L. Jones and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a detailed investigation of local sources, this book examines the history of the landed estate system in England since the mid-seventeenth century. Over recent centuries England was increasingly occupied by landed estates run by locally dominant and nationally influential owners. Historically, newcomers adopted the behaviour of existing landowners, all of whom presided over a relatively impoverished mass of rural inhabitants. Preferences for privacy and fine views led landowners to demolish or remove some whole villages. Alongside extensive landscape remodelling, rights-of-way were often privatised, imposing a cost on the economy. Social and environmental implications of the landed system as a whole are discussed and particular attention is paid to the nineteenth-century investment of industrial profits in estates. Why was the system so attractive and how was it perpetuated? Matters of poverty and inequality have always been of perennial interest to scholars of many persuasions and to the educated public; with this important book surveying environmental concerns in addition.
