Peasants and Lords in the Medieval English Economy
A Monument of Union
This case study uses the nineteenth-century community of Manea Fen as an example to explore the differing ways community was viewed and the issues this raised. Manea Fen was one of a number of British communities influenced by the communitarian ideas of Robert Owen. The study first considers the national context, locating Manea Fen and its founder, William Hodson, in the debates on community within the Owenite movement. It then focuses on the ind…
Transport in Medieval England
Medieval transport might strike the uninitiated as inherently primitive, but developments in the technology and infrastructure of getting goods and people around in the Middle Ages were constantly occurring. In the case of medieval England, they contributed critically to the commercialization in the country, particularly for the period from 1066 to around 1300. Nor was the story one of gradual and inexorable progress, but one of many twists and t…
Storage in medieval England
As a contribution to the long-running debate concerning the extent and motivation of medieval storage, this article uses purveyance accounts to examine such facilities in England prior to the Black Death. Three hundred and fifteen cases of predominantly urban storage were recorded for 97 communities for the products of agriculture purchased by the purveyors, mostly threshed grains. When these 315 cases were analysed using an Excel database, it wa…

Coming of Age and the Family in Medieval England
This article examines coming of age in medieval England through a very broad-based, multiauthored approach not normally found in the social sciences. Among other things, it examines what equated to legal ages for inheriting land and for criminal responsibility; the age-specific activities of young people, especially as revealed through proofs of ages; the spiritual framework of coming of age, particularly through the perspective of confirmation; …

Tower Windmills in Medieval England
Windmills became a very common sight on medieval landscapes from the late twelfth century onwards, particularly the mostly timber post-mill variety. Much rarer were tower windmills, where the wooden cap carrying the sails rotated on the top of a high stone tower. Despite the fact that tower windmills were known from at least the late thirteenth century and seemingly had advantages of durability and as attractive show-pieces for medieval landlords…

Medieval Farming and Technology
This is the first of three planned volumes which deal with the techniques and technology of agriculture in Europe in the period from 600 A.D. down to the 17th century. The focus of this first volume is Scandinavia, the British Isles, Northern Germany, the Low Countries and Northern France. The volume discusses methodological approaches and their limitations, the development of medieval agriculture in terms of the transmission of technological ide…

The Mobilization of Labour in the Milling Industry of Thirteenth- and Early Fourteenth-century England
The recourse to wage labour has traditionally been seen by historians as a second-rate option for medieval people, where access to land remained the key factor for ensuring their survival. Yet, labour opportunities, especially for craftsmen, were seemingly attractive for much of the thirteenth century at least, both in relation to the levels of pay and the probability of finding work during a time of notable investment, particularly in building. …

Horses, Oxen and Technological Innovation
This study is primarily intended as a contribution to the subject of medieval technology. In it the introduction of the work-horse to English farming as a replacement for oxen has been traced through nearly 450 years to see how medieval English society reacted to and upon this particular technical innovation. It has been found that in the adoption of the horse and in the use of draught animals generally there was a sharp differentiation between t…
