\n<\/span><\/p>\n

ORIGINS\u00a0 OF\u00a0 THE\u00a0 CUSTOM<\/strong><\/span>
\nIn England the custom of Beating the Bounds dates from Anglo-Saxon times and is mentioned in laws of Alfred the Great and \u00c6thelstan. It is thought to have been derived from the Roman Terminalia, a festival celebrated on 22 February in honour of Terminus, the god of landmarks. Also known as Gangdays, from the old English term ‘going a-ganging’ meaning going or walking, the ceremony was usually held on Rogation Days during Ascension Week, typically on Rogation Sunday. A ‘parish ale’, or feast, was often held after a perambulation which assured its popularity. During Henry VIII’s reign this had become an excuse for such great revelry that one cleric was caused to declare ‘These solemne and accustomable processions and supplications be nowe growen into a right foule and detestable abuse’.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Roman God Terminus pictured as a bust on a boundary stone – CONCEDO NVLLI means ‘yield no ground’<\/p><\/div>\n

The ceremony had an important practical purpose in that checking the boundaries prevented encroachment from neighbours. Sometimes boundary markers would be moved, or lines obscured, and in days when maps were rare, a folk memory of the true extent of the parish was necessary to maintain the integrity of its borders. Parish boundary markers would be beaten with boughs of birch or willow and young children whipped, violently bumped on boundary stones or even thrown into bounding watercourses to ensure they remembered the extent of their lands! A religious aspect was also involved which is reflected in the rogation, where the accompanying clergy beseech (rogare) the divine blessing upon the parish lands for the ensuing harvest. Often Psalms 103 and 104 were recited and the priest would make such pronouncements as ‘Cursed is he who transgresseth the bounds or doles of his neighbour’.<\/p>\n

2018\u00a0 BEATING\u00a0 THE\u00a0 BOUNDS<\/strong><\/span>
\nBrentor’s current boundary measures some 12.5 miles (20km) in circumference, much of which dates from Saxon times and incorporates parts of what were known as Liddaton and Lamerton to become Brentor in the 1800s. In 1987 land was gained from Mary Tavy along West Blackdown but lost to Lydford on the north-east side.
\nThe parish boasts five old inscribed boundstones on the current boundary to which a further nine ‘millennium’ boundstones were added in 2000, mainly along the newly defined border with Mary Tavy. Two further old inscribed stones mark the former boundary with Lydford in addition to a relatively new addition near Prescombe Corner replacing an old one destroyed by troops during WW2.
\nWith changing times, improved transport and a growing awareness of the outside world the tradition of Beating the Bounds generally lapsed in the middle of the 19th century, although in recent times it has seen a revival in many parishes. We last beat our boundary in Brentor in 1989.
\nThe day’s events will start at 9.00am with participants assembling at the village hall and registering their names before an inaugural speech and blessing by Rev Chris Hardwick. The perambulation itself will be split into two sections offering the flexibility to participate in either the morning section, the afternoon section or the whole route.
\nThe morning section of 6.5 miles (10.5km) will start from the village hall at 9.15am and terminate at the lunch stop in West Liddaton at 12.30am. Parking is available so those wishing to leave at this point can return via pre-parked vehicles, and those wishing to join at this point can leave their vehicles there for collection later. The afternoon section of 6 miles (9.5km) will start at 1.30pm and finish back at the village hall at 5.00pm.
\nFrom the village hall the route follows the road downhill to join the boundary with Mary Tavy at Furzleigh marked by the first of the millennium boundstones inscribed B\/2000 and MT. Thence it follows Brentor Parish Beating the Bounds 2018 the boundary along the road rising to a boundstone adjacent to Wortha Farm.\u00a0 Although on the parish boundary and boldly inscribed with the letter B, this stone is not a parish boundstone but one marking the former Buller Estate. From there the route descends beside the wall of Blacknor Park to the millennium boundstone inscribed B and MT beside the disused railway track at Smallacombe Bottom.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Ford and footbridge at Batten’s Steps<\/p><\/div>\n

Thence along the Brinsabach Farm track to the ford at Batten’s Steps, crossing the River Burn over a wooden foot bridge. The boundary is then followed up the farm track to another millennium boundstone inscribed B and MT adjacent to Brinsabach Farm.
\nThe route then proceeds along\u00a0 the farm track running roughly parallel to the boundary which ascends to the edge of the airfield and then WSW to the Lydford\/Tavistock Road. On reaching the South Brentor road the route turns left and crosses the boundary marked by an old boundstone inscribed B and L (Lamerton) in the western verge of the lane before turning right onto the\u00a0 Lydford\/Tavistock Road. Thence N along the road to cross the boundary again at the old boundstone adjacent to Moorlands.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Tavistock Turnpike Trust Boundary Stone<\/p><\/div>\n

This impressive stone was erected by the Tavistock Turnpike Trust when Tavistock Turnpike Trust\u00a0 boundary stone when it took over the road and is inscribed LAMER\/TON and BREN\/TOR on appropriate sides.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Lipscliffe Ford<\/p><\/div>\n

The route continues along the road to a gateway providing access to Heathfield Plantation, access to which is not permitted to dogs due to the presence of cattle. Dog owners will therefore be led along the road to the old boundstone in Week road inscribed B and M (Milton Abbot) and to another similar one opposite the reservoir before waiting for the main party to catch up in the tor car park.
\nMeanwhile, the main party will follow the boundary along the southern flank of Heathfield Plantation to The Beacon where the meeting of the parishes of Brentor, Milton Abbot and Lameton is marked by a modern, triangular boundstone inscribed B, MA and L. Thence NE through the plantation to the Week road and on to the tor car park to facilitate a short loo stop.<\/p>\n

Heathfield Plantation is the only part of the perambulation where cattle are likely to be encountered and those apprehensive of such contact may wish to join with the dog owners and omit this section. From the car park the route returns to the Week road which is followed generally NNW down to the bridge beside the old ford and then up to Liddaton Down, roughly paralleling the boundary which runs further E and N.\u00a0 A left turn facilitates following the boundary W along the Chillaton road until it turns N to gain the River Lyd below West Liddaton. This corner is marked by a millennium boundstone inscribed B and MA. The route backtracks to Liddaton Down then descends generally N via road and bridlepath to the lunch stop at The Homestead in West Liddaton.<\/p>\n

After lunch the route follows the roads generally ENE via Liddaton Green and Broadpark railway bridge to cross the boundary at Lipscliffe Ford, marked by a millennium boundstone inscribed B and C (Coryton).\u00a0 The farm track is then followed NE along the N side of the River Lyd past Brandis Wood and along the foot of Longham Down, paralleling the boundary along the Lyd valley. The track is briefly left to cross a feeder stream to the Lyd over a makeshift foot-bridge before rejoining it and proceeding ESE through the foot of Lydford Forest to visit Lydford Forest bridge over the Lyd which marks the boundary.\u00a0 The track is then followed generally ESE to its termination and thence through the remains of tin streaming works to enter National Trust (NT) property at the foot of Whitelady Falls.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Whitelady Falls<\/p><\/div>\n

The boundary then leads up the falls and the route ascends the narrow zig-zag Whitelady Falls path alongside them and under the old railway line to emerge into the Trust’s car park where a short loo break will be held. This stepped path is very steep and some walkers may prefer to take the wide track back along the river, past the horizontal mine shaft cut into the side of the valley, and thence a more gentle ascent to the car park to re-group. All participants are reminded to keep to the designated paths as directed by our marshals and NT staff while on NT property.<\/p>\n

From the car park the route crosses the Lydford road and proceeds along the bridlepath to the open moor, turning left and descending to the boundary marked by a millennium boundstone inscribed B,
\nMT and L (Lydford) at the ford below Hall Farm. This stands close to the remains of an old clapper bridge which was formerly regarded as a boundary marker.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

From there the boundary is followed SW along the track at the foot of Black Down passing millennium boundstones inscribed B and MT either side of Burn Cottage and a third at West Blackdown, the latter having the additional inscription 2000 below the B.\u00a0 Finally the road is followed to Furzleigh and thence back up to the village hall where a welcoming medieval themed \u2018parish ale\u2019 supper awaits!<\/p>\n

A FACET OF BRENTOR HISTORY<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe following is an edited version of a manuscript written by the late Dennis Young in 1987 \u2013 the original is stored in the Brentor Living Archive.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>The parish of Brentor as we know it today is a fusion of two parishes, Brentor and part of Lamerton.\u00a0 The tor stands on Brentor land which was held by Geoffrey (Gosifrid), two smallholders and three slaves.\u00a0 The Domesday entry for this land is Liddaton (Lideltona).\u00a0 Before 1241 Liddaton had passed from the Abbot into other hands. In 1228 however, a certain L’Archediakne granted the land back to the Abbey.<\/p>\n

In early times it formed part of Lifton (Listone) Hundred, but between 1114 and 1120 it became part of the newly formed hundred of Tavistock (Tavistoke) created by Henry I to cover the estates held by the Abbey.\u00a0 This part of modern Brentor, the original part, stretched three miles and was a strip of land between Liddaton and Brinsabach, which strip effectively divided the parish of Lamerton into two parts. The outlier of this parish (or outlying northern part) later became known as North Brentor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

St Michael de Rupe crowning Brentor<\/p><\/div>\n

At the dissolution of the monastries in 1539, Liddaton was granted, subject to a rent charge, to John Russell, Knight, along with all the other Abbey lands plus many other estates, all later to be known collectively as the Bedford estates.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Triple earthwork defences around Brentor<\/p><\/div>\n

The church of St Michael de Rupe which crowns the tor was built by one Robert Gifford in about 1130 who, as Lord of the Manor of Lamerton, gave it to the Abbey along with some of the surrounding land together with about thirty acres of his land at Lamerton. St Michael’s became a chapelry of Tavistock.\u00a0 Around the church are the remains of a massive triple earthwork defence system dated by Lady Aileen Fox as being middle to late Iron Age.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Three of the tumuli (arrowed) at The Beacon<\/p><\/div>\n

Nearby, just a mile away on Week Farm (itself a very interesting Saxon settlement) within the area known as Heathfield are a range of burial mounds or tumuli, surveyed by the writer some years ago and apparently undisturbed.\u00a0 These tumuli belong to the Bronze Age and predate the earthworks by over a thousand years and the church by over two thousand.\u00a0 The site of one of the mounds is known as The Beacon and marks the boundary for the most south-westerly part of the parish.\u00a0 Historically, the site was used to position one of the Spanish Armada warning beacons, part of a network of fire signals to be ignited in the event of a seaborne attack.<\/p>\n

Burnville Farm has an interesting history. It stands on land once part of the outlier of the parish of Lamerton.\u00a0 At the time of the Norman Conquest, Lamerton (Lambretona) was held by the Saxon thane Ordulf. In the Doomsday entry for this manor it is shown as being held by Roald L’Adobed (or Rhiwallon) from the King. On this period of history the outlier was mute and was probably not settled land, the nearest settlements being Liddaton (Lideltona), Willsworthy (Wyvelesworth Stondon), Lydford (Lideforda), Warne, Mary Tavy (Wagesfella) and Week (Wyk Dabernon).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The old East Langstone farmhouse at Burnville (c 400 years old)<\/p><\/div>\n

In 1100, Roald L’Adobed entered religion and his group of estates, including Lamerton, vested in the crown and were granted to William Gifford. The Giffords held the manor for over 150 years. The outlying part of this manor however, was not granted to William Gifford but to Plympton Priory. The date of this gift is not known but it was before 1156 and it was not mentioned in the disposal of Roald’s lands so was possibly given to the Prior by Roald himself, the Doomsday holder of Lamerton.<\/p>\n

Later, in a confirmatory charter signed by Henry II and dated to about 1155 confirming the estates held by the Prior of Plympton, we find the following:<\/p>\n

(225) The whole land of Watrifalla (Waterfall in Brentor parish) and
\n(226) Langstan (Langstone Manor in Brentor parish) and
\n(227) Wuddemanneswella with the Furze Brake (Woodsmanswell in Brentor parish) and
\n(228) Rughadona (Rowden in Brentor parish)<\/em><\/p>\n

These lands are the \u2153 part of Lamerton (the whole outlier) and recorded at the Dissolution as being worth \u00a39-11-2d and being part of the Manor of the Waterfall. \u00a0 Also listed is a shilling’s worth of land at Brent (part of Brentor parish).\u00a0 Although granted to one Arthur Champernowne at the Dissolution, they were later divided and did not remain in one person’s hands as was the fate of Tavistock Abbey possessions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

River Lyd feeder stream passing under Lydford viaduct – the northernmost point of the pre-1987 boundary<\/p><\/div>\n

The outlier boundaries are typically Saxon and cover an area stretching from the River Lyd, starting at the ford near Lipscliffe, following the river upstream past the waterfall and Lydford Bridge at the other end of the gorge, under the viaduct, then turning south-east up the feeder stream and across the A386 to Willsworthy Camp, then westwards to another feeder stream following it down past Hall Farm and the clapper bridge to near the Manor Hotel [Mucky Duck Inn].<\/p>\n

Here the boundary turns back on itself to the River Burn following it downstream to meet with the Liddaton lands at Brinsabach. From there the outlier boundary follows the feeder stream to Holyeat, turning north-east to skirt the tor, then north-west past the Brentor Inn to skirt Rowden and join a nearby feeder stream at its head and then following the stream down past Burcombe to rejoin the River Lyd at the ford. These feeder streams, chosen all those centuries ago as boundary markers, are still flowing today.<\/p>\n

In Benjamin Donn’s Survey of Devon \u2013 1765<\/em>, Burnville is shown as East Longstone, and Langstone Manor as West Longstone, where the Herring family is listed as being in residence.\u00a0 Also in this survey, Burn Lane, surrounded by Burnville land, is shown as a settlement or hamlet. The late Freddie Wrench of Burn Lane once told the writer he was convinced of the truth of this and that the verges and strips of land fringing the lane held many ‘hovels’, the homes of the labouring class.\u00a0 Such primitive shelters, made of cob, wattle and daub and thatched with branches and turves, would leave no trace, apart from some possible sherds or artefacts.<\/p>\n

For many years the Herring family held Langstone and its lands. In 1873, Phillip Herring is listed\u00a0 in Return of the Owners Land<\/em> as holding 474 acres of land in Devon, approximately the combined acreage of both Burnville and Langstone. The land on which Burn Lane House now stands was first leased (three lives lease) and then purchased from the Herring family.\u00a0 So the tie with Burnville land is significant.\u00a0 The Brentor Inn used to be called the Herring Arms.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Langstone Manor<\/p><\/div>\n

The Ward family (Ward and Chowen, D Ward and Son) purchased Burnville in 1907 and in 1944 sold the whole estate to the Church Commissioners for \u00a315,500, as did the owners of Langstone Manor, the latter remaining as sitting tenants. In recent years the Commissioners have been selling land, including Burnville, Langstone, Week, Burns Hall etc in order to release money for other investments. It is interesting to note that the Russell family, the Bedfords, along with others, still own the sole rights for the extraction of minerals on Burnville land.<\/p>\n

John Bodman, the previous owner of Burnville, who bought the estate from the Church Commissioners, told the writer in the 1960s, at the time the University of Belfast was conducting a ‘dig’ at Lydford for remains of the Saxon settlement, that they would find more Saxon history on his land than they ever would at Lydford!<\/p>\n

Up to the last war, Burnville employed many men and horses.\u00a0 The house is a listed late Georgian or Regency building and replaced the earlier farmhouse, which still exists close by, now sadly neglected and showing its years.<\/p>\n

In the 1880s, many parishes were realigned and the Lamerton outlier fused with Brentor to form the parish we know today.\u00a0 We are very shortly [1987] to change our boundaries once again taking in the area known as West Blackdown from Mary Tavy and loosing all that land to the north and east of the clapper bridge to Lydford.<\/p>\n

It would seem that the history pages of Brentor are once again being turned with the sale of both Tavistock Abbey and Plympton Priory lands. It is always sad when land changes hands. We can never really claim outright ownership, only perhaps act as trustees for our allotted span. The land goes on and with it the love, toil, memories, hopes and aspirations of the previous owners, tenants and farm workers over the centuries.<\/p>\n
