Description of the high Stream of Arundel, The Heads and Rising Thereof, The Sundry Kinds of Fishes Therein in their several Haunts, The Fishermen, Their Care & Service in Preserving Fish, etc , by William Barttelot and Joseph Fowler, M.A., published 1929 (Nature and Archaeology Circle, Littlehampton Extra Publications) accessible at: West Sussex Libraries

This is one of those books, unfortunately only to rare, in which one of the men of old has set down, not only his traditions and inferences about the past, but also much about what was the present to him. It will be indispensable to future workers on the topography of the Arun Valley; and part, at least, will appeal to those who, whether they are interested in archaeology or no, find pleasure in the writings of men like Gilbert White. We may regret that this seventeenth century Water Bailiff, who wrote a description of his duties and the scene of them for the guidance of his successors, has not recorded his own name; but, nameless as he is, he is a more living figure to us than most of the country squires he mentions can ever be. If his archaeology, and particularly his etymology, are not up to modern standards, we have Mr. Fowler's very adequate notes to correct them ; if we seek more information, about the contemporaries he talks of, we find his passing references amplified by a quantity of genealogical notes supplied by Mr. John Comber; if he has once been guilty of a piece of " fine writing " which resembles bad blank verse, it serves to remind us that he was human. The get-up of the book deserves a word of praise. Paper and typography are excellent, and the indispensable map combines something of the picturesqueness of the seventeenth century with the accuracy of the twentieth. Both Mr. Fowler and the Nature and Archaeology Circle are to be congratulated on this fresh source-book of our local topography.

The publication by the English Place-Name Society of the first of the two volumes which it is devoting to Sussex is an event of very great importance for all students of Sussex History and indeed for everyone interested in whatever capacity in the topography of Sussex: and there can be no doubt that this volume and its companion dealing with East Sussex will rank high amongst the records of the county.

Estate Surveys of the Fitzalan Earls of Arundel, 14th century, by Marie Clough, published 1969 (vol. 67, Sussex Record Society) accessible at: W.S.R.O. [Lib 2283][Lib 8067] & The Keep [LIB/500443] & West Sussex Libraries

This is a transcription made by courtesy of the Duke of Norfolk of certain Records of the Arundel Estates, viz.: Liber "A" (collated with the almost identical Liber "C") which Miss Clough dates as 1301; and Liber "B" which is a compilation made between 1439 and 1464. The volume must have involved a large amount of tiring time and trouble and is of great interest. It throws light on the Social History giving the holdings of various classes and the rents and services due (surprisingly small having regard to there being no local rates which only started in the 16th century): it also suggests a revision of our ideas as to the social standing of tenants not "free" for we find that the Vicar of Wisborough Green in 1399-1406 was a customary tenant of South Stoke. It provides the topographer with names of hundreds, manors and other districts and of individual holdings. Miss Clough has done her best to identify these but some are too obscure. The Glossary of Place Names is only "Select" ones but it might have been better to include all and to include all the references and all the unidentified places (some of which are omitted).

Most of the details about the life of Henry Fitzalan, fourteenth Earl of Arundel, come from a biography written in 1580, which was the year of his death, by a close associate, probably his private chaplain, who had clearly been an eyewitness to most of the events described. The latter wrote the essay for the benefit of the Earl's two daughters and heiresses, "for the perpetual memory of a personage very honorable, and that ye who shall remain of his blood may the rather rejoice in so noble a progenitor." Since this was his purpose, there can be little doubt that the author has a tendency to stress the virtues and successes of his subject, and to gloss over his defects and omit his failures. What is recorded, however, carries the ring of truth, and the selectivity of the presentation throws light on the values and actions which the author considered important and praiseworthy.
The Earl of Arundel was no ordinary nobleman. He was the representative of the most senior and one of the richest and most powerful aristocratic families in the country. He was a man who inherited vast estates and equally vast authority in his native Sussex, and who lived in a style appropriate to his position. Unlike the more modern-minded nobles, he does not seem to have been much affected by the educational reforms of the Renaissance. When on embassies abroad, he certainly confined himself to speaking English, and it seems possible that he lacked the skill to do anything else.

Henry Ford, the son of a farmer, is probably best remembered for his pioneering the mass production of cars, trucks and of course the ubiquitous Fordson tractor. However, it is not often realised that by the early 1920's, Henry Ford was taking a great interest in aircraft and to quote from his words "In a motor car you can go almost anywhere land exists. In an airplane you can go almost anywhere a man can breathe, and with the development of the supercharger it is possible to go places even where man cannot breathe under normal circumstances".
In 1926, after some years of experimenting, the Ford Trimotor went into production. It was a high wing three engined aircraft of all metal construction and new alloy called -Alclad' which combined the corrosion resistance of pure aluminium with the strength of duralumin was used. This resulted in the machine earning the nickname of Tin Goose. The aircraft carried 16 passengers whilst the two pilots were in an enclosed cockpit. It became very popular and at one time held the world's speed record for its class at 162 m.p.h. Production was also at a high rate: with typical Ford practice, raw materials entered the rear of the factory and finished planes, of shining aluminium, emerged from the front which also served as an enormous hangar. According to Ford historian James K. Wagner, by 1 May 1929, Ford's aeroplane production reached a record one-a-day rate. Trimotors were shipped to England and in fact they were used on the Croydon-Le Touquet service.
In July 1931, the Ford company set up a European headquarters at Ford aerodrome, near Arundel, utilising the two large hangars on the Yapton side.

Classical sculpture and the English interior, 1640-1840: purpose and meaning, by Ruth A. Guilding, 2000 at Bristol University (Ph.D. thesis)

The 2nd Earl of Arundel was the first English collector to imitate directly Italian Renaissance collections, creating sculpture displays in Arundel House and its gardens in the 1640s which became famous throughout Europe . Translated into the quasi-domestic context, classical sculpture represented the veneration of the cultural and political mores of ancient Rome and Greece, the props and justification of political power, but could also be portrayed as an inspirational 'body of history' augmenting civic culture, as 'national treasure' and exemplars for the improvement of the arts, carrying the onus of granting opportunities for their public consumption . Arundel's displays were piously recreated, at Wilton House, Easton Neston and the University of Oxford, but subsequent collectors adopted the Palladian format, based on Roman architectural vocabulary, as the convention for display until c.1760 . Dependent on symmetry and niche architecture, Palladian displays required full-length statues, or copies and casts of the best works in the antique canon. Outside the context of the 'atrium'/entrance hall. where busts and statues could stand as putative ancestors, sculpture continued to hold the same resonances, but in these controlled and formalised settings its significance could be diminished to that of grand furniture. The more intensive antiquarianism of the Enlightenment gradually eclipsed such resonances. From the 1760s, tastes broadened to encompass the works of Piranesi, inscriptions, funerary sculpture, and non-classical antiquities, placed in 'Museum' room displays . In the last full-blown aristocratic galleries, at Castle Howard, Woburn, Petworth and Chatsworth, between 1800-c.1840, marble antiquities were juxtaposed with modern sculpture, to convey a political message, or as antique exemplars. The cachet of ownership increased: Charles Townley's reputation was entirely vested in his antique marbles; his housemuseum at Park Street acquired a quasi-public status, becoming the model for the first public sculpture galleries, when his marbles were bought by the British Museum.

"The Outhwaite controversy": a micro-history of the Edwardian land campaign, by Brian Short and John Godfrey, published January 2007 in The Journal of Historical Geography (vol. 33 issue 1, article, pp.45-71)   View Online

The concept of micro-history has not yet been well explored within historical geography. This paper employs the idea but with a more overtly spatial emphasis, by relating the national discourse surrounding the land question in Edwardian Britain to one of its local manifestations. In particular, we consider the attacks made by the radical 'single-taxer' Liberal MP R.L. Outhwaite upon the Duke of Norfolk and his estate at Arundel, Sussex. Outhwaite levelled charges of feudal land monopoly leading to poor housing and rural depopulation on the Duke's Sussex estate, and contrasted this with the wealth being transferred from the Duke's extensive properties in Sheffield to reconstruct the castle at Arundel. The Duke and his agent, Mostyn, responded fiercely to the allegations. This local struggle for political power and capital is set against the wider situation during the tense years leading up to the Great War. The intersection between the two scales of enquiry demonstrates how the national level of political debate became more complex and fractured at the local level, how actors at the local level were also moving on wider stages, and the interconnecting processes. Further questions about the utility of micro-history are raised as a result.

An indenture of 1 March 1476, preserved at Arundel Castle, records the acquisition by John Dudley of Atherington of a marble tomb in Arundel collegiate church. The tomb had originally been commissioned for the use of Richard Dallingridge, who had died five years before. The article identifies the tomb as the lower of the two currently supporting the effigies of the 9th Earl of Arundel and his wife in their chantry chapel on the south side of the Fitzalan Chapel at Arundel. It is suggested that Dudley acquired the tomb for the use of his wife Elizabeth, whose interment at Arundel is referred to in his will of 1500. The article concludes by identifying the circumstances which could have led Richard Dallingridge, the last of the Dallingridges of Bodiam, to seek burial in a church at the opposite end of the county from his family's base.

In the wake of Throckmorton: Christopher Haynes, customer, searcher and taverner of Arundel, c.1527-1586, by Stewart Johnson, published 2011 in Sussex Archæological Collections (vol. 149, article, pp.159-172) accessible at: W.S.R.O.

In November 1583 Francis Throckmorton was arrested for his part in plotting a Spanish invasion of England combined with a Catholic rebellion at home; he was executed at Tyburn on 10 July 1584. Following the arrest, his fellow conspirators Charles Arundel and Thomas Paget, fearing for their safety, escaped to France from Sussex. This article examines the role played in these events by Christopher Haynes, customer of Arundel, and discusses his activities in the town since becoming a burgess in 1557.

Arundel Church with the Fitzalan Chapel: a brief history, by Nick Plumley, published 28 June 2014 (44 pp., The History Press, ISBN-10: 1841655678 & ISBN-13: 9781841655673) accessible at: West Sussex Libraries

This nicely produced guide is on the whole well balanced, with sections on the 'new' church of the 1380s, the Reformation and its effects, the church in the early modern period, 19th-century and more recent restorations or reorderings, and the contentious history of the Fitzalan Chapel (structurally the chancel of the medieval church). The various complexities are lucidly explained, and the author avoids getting bogged down in too much detail. However, the less than two pages devoted to the development of the church from Anglo-Saxon minster to Norman priory and then to a college of secular clergy comes across as rather breathless. The importance of the substantial reuse of carved stones from an earlier church is given rather short shrift; the caption to the two illustrations of such pieces gives no hint of their date or significance.
The text is interspersed with a number of mini-essays on topics ranging from wall painting to bells, easily identified as 'extras' by being reversed out against a darkish blue background. There are over 75 high-quality illustrations, including a clear coloured plan and several historical drawings, which contribute valuable information about the state of the church at various dates. One of these, a 1771 engraving by Benjamin Green, contributes to the debate about whether the building was rendered externally or not. The source of this engraving is given, but it is a matter of some regret that the other historical illustrations are devoid of any attribution other than their date; ideally one would expect to be told the name of the artist and the source, or the location in the case of unpublished unique items.
Such criticisms apart, this is an attractive, informative, well-written and well-produced booklet, on which the author (whose name is modestly hidden in the small print inside the back cover), the Friends of St Nicholas Church and the publisher are to be congratulated.

Survey and excavation at Goblestubbs Copse, Arundel, West Sussex, by David McOmish and Gordon Hayden, published 2015 in Sussex Archæological Collections (vol. 153, article, pp.1-28) accessible at: W.S.R.O. [Lib 18934] & The Keep [LIB/509033] & S.A.S. library   View Online

This report outlines the results of a programme of fieldwork undertaken by English Heritage in collaboration with the Worthing Archaeological Society. It focused on an area of woodland, some of it dense and unmanaged, to the west of the town of Arundel. Here, investigation centred on a cluster of enclosures at Goblestubbs Copse, and included detailed earthwork survey followed by a limited amount of excavation. The results are unequivocal: the enclosures date to the early decades of the 1st millennium AD and were likely still to have been in use at the time of the Claudian Conquest, and for a time thereafter too. The Goblestubbs complex may well be only one of a number of other contemporary foci in this particular area, suggesting that it was an important nexus of activity, complementary to developments further to the west in and around Chichester.
