Billingshurst's Heritage
Author: Geoffrey Lawes
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781912271023
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
"The spot may have beauty, grandeur, salubrity, convenience, but if it lacks memories it will ultimately pall on him who settles there" (Thomas Hardy). The past always informs the present! This Revised Edition, combining the two earlier volumes of 'Billingshurst's Heritage', seeks to recall to the reader's mind the strong-flowing stream of life in the history of the village from Paleolithic times to the present day, including details of the very latest archaeological revelations of Iron Age exploitation and Roman farmsteads. It embraces a multitude of parish characters, their memories, the clubs to which they belonged, the buildings both ancient and modern where they lived and worked, traded and worshipped, the fields they tilled and roads they trod. It gives an up-to-date account of the village today, its local management, the richness of its sporting and social life and the many institutions which make Billingshurst such a desirable place to live, to bring up children and to lead a comfortable and fulfilled life where town and country meet. It chronicles the past and describes the present community at work and at play. It touches on future threats and opportunities in a spot which is a commendable place to make a home. It is unlikely that even the best informed villager will not find something new and surprising amid the stories, maps and some 250 illustrations.

Land, Power and Prestige
Author: David Thomas Yates
Publisher: Oxbow Books Limited
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
A major phase of economic expansion occurred in southern England during the second and early first millennium BC, accompanied by a fundamental shift in regional power and wealth towards the eastern lowlands. This book offers a synthesis of available data on Bronze Age lowland field systems in England, including a gazetteer of sites. The research demonstrates the importance of large-scale animal husbandry in the mixed farming regimes as evidenced in the design of the field systems which incorporate droveways, stock proof fencing, watering holes, cow pens, sheep races and gateways for stockhandling. It is argued that the field systems represented a form of conspicuous production, an "intensification" of agrarian endeavour or a statement of intent, to be understood in relation to the maintenance, display and promotion of hierarchical social systems involved in exchange with their counterparts across the English Channel.

Triangular UFOs
Author: David Marler
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781490465814
Category : Unidentified flying objects
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
For years, serious researchers have known that triangular-shaped UFOs are one of the most common types observed. The phenomenon has sparked intense debate among many and excited the imagination of many others. But until now, there has never been a book-length treatment of this fascinating subject.Finally, we have one. David Marler has provided a comprehensive analysis of "the triangles." He has collected, collated, and analyzed hundreds of reports. In the process, he has created a detailed profile of these objects and written a rich narrative of their history.Marler is well-suited to the task, having at his disposal an enormous collection of newspaper archives, declassified military reports, UFO books and journals, and the transcripts of many first-hand interviews he has conducted. He has also received input from many prominent individuals from within the military, FAA, Aerospace, and UFO research field.He tackles the arguments made by skeptics that dismiss these triangular UFO reports outright. He also address the claims of so-called insiders who claim these objects are a creation of the U.S. military.The results of his years of research are documented in his book, Triangular UFOs: An Estimate of the Situation. It is a book that has long been needed, not only by the UFO research community, but the general public, as it opens up an entirely new discussion that has long been ignored: who is making the triangles?
