Abstract
Patriotic views: aristocratic ideology and the eighteenth-century l...
George Sheeran
1 - 23
The paper focuses on the relationship between patriotism and landscape on aristocratic estates in England in the eighteenth century, using the county of Yorkshire as the research area. It proceeds from an examination of eighteenth-century ideas concerning patriotism to an exploration of how these were reflected in designed landscapes. Its thesis is that landscape could be conceived of as patriotic in a general sense in terms of the uses of both agricultural land and parkland, as well as in memorialising of specific events through the erecting of monuments or the renaming of parts of the estate. This in turn was intertwined with the ideology of a paternalistic aristocracy, an aristocracy that conceived of patriotism as a defence of liberty and just government. The paper forms a synthesis of theoretical perspectives and empirical evidence to argue that landscape became a powerful metaphor for libertarian and democratic principles associated with patriotic conceptions of England.
Wombwell: the landscape history of a South Yorkshire coalfie...

An interdisciplinary approach combining archival research and the use of field names with fieldwork and an understanding of the ecology allows the reconstruction of the landscape and farming economy of a South Yorkshire township before the development of the coalfield brought huge changes in the nineteenth century. Although no manorial or estate papers survive, two Tudor surveys, the archives of Trinity College, Cambridge, glebe terriers, and a tithe award and map are used to describe the pattern of open fields, river meadows, moors, assarts and a communal wood. Of particular interest is the way that the extensive flood-plain was drained and farmed in communal ings, which made Wombwell `an extent of agricultural ground remarkably rich and fertile'. No formal enclosure took place, as most of the township came under single ownership, but with the sale of the estate in lots in the late-eighteenth century considerable changes in ownership and farming practices were introduced. These are examined through nineteenth- and twentieth-century crop returns and farm surveys held at the National Archives. Since the collapse of the coal-mining industry, regeneration projects have altered the landscape again and destroyed some of its inherited distinctiveness.
Hartside, Northumberland and Cockfield, County Durham: specific cases, settlement systems and time trajec...
Brian K Roberts
70 - 89
The article describes how the analysis of two aerial photographs leads to a consideration of the way the evidence they contain can be utilised by `comparing and contrasting'. Specific cases and simple generalised models are used to do this. Finally, a complex model, illustrative of multi-dimensional thought and setting individual cases in both time and space, is used to picture the articulation of English settlement systems. The discussion embraces both fundamental empirical analysis of specific places and a quest for large-scale generalising statements.
