Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1697, a 34-year-old woman mounted her horse and set off on a 3,000-mile journey which over two summers would take her to every county in England. Her name was Celia Fiennes. It was a time when women didn't do such things. It could be gruelling, unhealthy and dangerous. As she discovered, most roads were unsigned, marshy tracks, lodgings could be filthy and vermin-ridden, and highwaymen lay in wait for the unwary. Luckily for us, Celia Fiennes kept a detailed diary about the places she saw and the people she met. She reports on the brutal justice system and political shenanigans of the time, and is fascinated by industry and commerce – workshops, shipping and especially coal-pits and tin mines. What she tells us is significant as the Industrial Revolution would soon change England forever. Yet this remarkable woman and her story have, until now, been largely neglected. In England From a Side-Saddle, historian and journalist Derek J. Taylor seeks to put that right. As we follow the route Celia Fiennes took, we see through her eyes an England of 320 years ago, and learn of the courage, determination and curiosity of one woman who was centuries ahead of her time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celia Fiennes is remarkable for the journeys she made, in an effort regain her health, riding through the English countryside. As well as more local journeys she made two epic tours in 1697 and 1698 travelling as far as northern England and Scotland. Travelling for it's own sake was unusual in her day, there being few roads, even more unusual for a woman to travel (only accompanied by two servants). Her accounts of her travels seem to have been written around 1702, after she had retired from travelling, and were never published within her lifetime.

Download or read book Changing Landscapes in Urban British Churchyards written by Sylvia E. Thornbush and published by Bentham Science Publishers. This book was released on 2020-04-27 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: his interdisciplinary reference work presents a linked consideration, to the reader, of physical- cultural (physicocultural) representations of headstones located in urban churchyards in England and Scotland. The geomorphology of landscapes relevant to these locations is explained with the help of detailed case studies from Oxford and Edinburgh. The integrated physicocultural approach addresses the conservation of the archaeological record and presents a cross-temporal perspective of landscape change – of the headstones as landforms in their landscape (as part of deathscapes). The physical record (of headstones) is examined in the context of both cultural representation and change. In this way, an integrated approach is employed that connects the physical (natural) and cultural (social) records kept by historians and archeologists over the years. Changing Landscapes in Urban British Churchyards is of interest to geomorphologists, historians and scholars interested in understanding landscaping studies and cultural nuance of specific historical urban sites in England and Scotland.
