Steeple Claydon: Before And After Enclosure
Julian Hunt's talk will contrast the early eighteenth-century private enclosure of Addington, a closed village, with that of Steeple Claydon – a neighbouring and much larger open village, enclosed by Act of Parliament in 1795. It will feature the personalities behind each enclosure, including members of the Verney, Busby and Hubbard families. It will also show how enclosure dramatically affected people’s lives at all levels of society.
7.30pm. Free; non-members of Buckinghamshire Family History Society are very welcome; a small donation will be appreciated.
