Political History

EARLY MIDDLE AGES (476-900 AD) [read more here]

In the centuries after the departure of the Romans from Britain, four major circles of influence emerged within the borders of what is now Scotland. In the east were the Picts, whose kingdoms eventually stretched from the river Forth to Shetland. The first identifiable king to have exerted a superior and wide-ranging authority, was Bridei mac Maelchon (r. c. 550–84), whose power was based in the Kingdom of Fidach and his base was at the fort of Craig Phadrig near modern Inverness. After his death leadership seems to have shifted to the Fortriu, whose lands were centred on Strathearn and Menteith and who raided along the eastern coast into modern England. Christian missionaries from Iona appear to have begun the conversion of the Picts to Christianity from 563.

In the west were the Gaelic (Goidelic)-speaking people of Dál Riata with their royal fortress at Dunadd in Argyll, with close links with the island of Ireland, from which they brought with them the name Scots. In 563 a mission from Ireland under St. Columba

Every Wednesday here on r/ForestofBowland and r/Ribblevalley we look at some of the other regional subreddits around the British isles, with the idea of compiling a kind of A to Z, this week we’ve chosen r/Hull, the sub for the maritime city of Hull.

Hull

For U we chose r/Hull, the subreddit for Hull, or Kingston upon Hull, to give the city it’s full name, a maritime city on the north shore of the Humber estuary, about 25 miles upstream from where it meets the North sea. The city began its life as a port in the 12th century when it was used by the Cistercian monks of Meaux abbey to export wool, and was given city status in 1897, more recently in 2017 the city was awarded U.K. city of culture.

This new found identity led to the government investing over £1 billion in infrastructure and since then the city, which had suffered a period of decline due to collapse of both the main industries of manufacturing and fishing, has gone through a bit of a renaissance, with hotels, bars, conference centres and more being built and the city’s student population climbing to over 16,000 due to the success of Hull University.

The port of Hull remains as busy as ever, handling over a million passengers a year which pass through to the ports of Zeebrugge and Rotterdam in the Netherlands, it has also become the focus for the expanding wind farms of the North sea.

Just up the Humber from the docks the striking, angular prow of The Deep can be seen jutting out over the water, this building, opened in 2002, houses a unique aquarium and marine research centre, dubbed a ‘submarium’ as it is partially submerged in the seawater surrounding it, in which can be seen over 3,500 species of sea-life including sharks, rays, cephalopods and Europe’s only captive pair of Green Sawfish.

Teignmouth

r/Teignmouth is the subreddit for the Devon town of Teignmouth, a coastal town situated on the mouth of the river Teign about 12 miles south of Exeter, it is a handsome little town with long sandy beaches surrounded by the verdant rolling countryside which makes Devon so attractive to tourists, it is also only a few miles away from Dartmoor National Park.

There is a Victorian pier in Teignmouth, Teignmouth Grand Pier, which is over 150 years old and has many of the traditional rides and games which it would have had originally and some more modern ones such as a F1 style cart racing track! The seafront also has a heated lido which w

Rock/Folk

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Do your worst!

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

They were cooked in Greece.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Because she wanted to see the task manager.

Heard they've been doing some shady business.

but then I remembered it was ground this morning.

Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale

Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments

BamBOO!

They’re on standbi

A play on words.

Pilot on me!!

Christopher Walken

Nothing, he was gladiator.

Or would that be too forward thinking?

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

Small Regional Subreddit of the Day!

Every Wednesday here on @r/Ribblevalley and r/ForestofBowland we look at some of the other small regional subreddits around the British isles, with the idea of compiling an A to Z, this week we’ve chosen r/PeterboroughUK, the sub for the Cambridgeshire city of Peterborough.

Peterborough

Peterborough is a cathedral city with a long and fascinating history situated 76 miles north of London on the River Nene, it is known for its 12th century Cathedral which was built on the site of an Anglo-Saxon monastery, called Medeshamstede, which was the original name of the city.

The area has always been an important settlement for different civilisations due to its proximity to the highly productive agricultural land of the fens, with the remains of a bronze-age settlement still being evident at Flag Fen archaeological park in the city centre, and the remains of a Roman garrison 5 miles to the west where half a legion (3000) soldiers were stationed.

Around 1070 Hereward the Wake, an Anglo-Saxon warlord, infamously rampaged through the city with his troops in their resistance against the invading Normans. More recently Peterborough found itself on the frontline between the Royalists and Parliamentarians in the English Civil war, with Parliamentarian troops ransacking the cathedral.

Nowadays the city relies upon the service industry as a main source of employment and is growing massively with recent investment by the government, coupled with the fact that it is one of the most affordable places to live in the U.K., both meaning that it’s population is booming at the moment.

Orkney

Last week we found ourselves in the Orcadian archipelago for r/Orkney

The Orkney islands are a scattered group of low lying islands situated in the scintillating waters which separate the North Sea from the Norwegian Sea, and owe their low lying nature, there are no mountains here and the tallest peak, Ward Hill, is only 1,560ft high, to the scouring pressure of the Norwegian ice sheets which held this part of the world under their icy grasp over 10,000 years ago in the last great ice age.

There is famously a lack of trees on these islands too, although there is plenty of life, with the air and seas of the archipelago being full of the flashings of fish, cries of seabirds and, if you are lucky, you may sight a cetacean, as many speci

Every Wednesday here on r/Ribblevalley and r/ForestofBowland we look at some of the other small regional subreddits around the British isles, with the idea of compiling an A to Z, this week we’ve chosen r/Rutland, the sub for the English county of Rutland.

Rutland

Rutland’s motto is Multum in parvo, ‘Much in little’, and this sums up this pretty english county perfectly, as, at only 147.4 square miles in size it the smallest county in England, and nearly 5 of these are taken up by Rutland water, a reservoir which sits in the centre of the county, constructed in the early 70s and under whose waters lie the village of Nether Hambleton.

The county takes its name from the original inhabitants of the area, an old English tribe called the ‘Rota’ and has many villages and small towns which have kept hold of their medieval heritage. The two largest towns are Uppingham and Oakham and many of the buildings are built from a type of Limestone called Ketton stone which gives the buildings an attractive and unique honey coloured hue.

In the town of Oakham sits Oakham castle which is one of the most complete Norman halls in the country and is famous for its display of over 230 ancient and ornate horseshoes, these have been collected from occasions when a peer of the realm has visited Oakham when it is tradition to present them with a horseshoe to carry, the horseshoe is also the emblem of Rutland.

Newquay

For Q we cheated a bit (again!) and chose r/Newquay. Newquay, Tewynblustri in the ancient Cornish language of Kernowek, is a seaside town of some 20,000 people situated on the northern shores of the Cornish peninsula, it is famous for its beaches and surfing, with the swell of the Atlantic Ocean bringing in some of the biggest rollers to be found anywhere in the British isles.

The town has been settled since at least the 3rd century and archaeological remains from the Bronze, Iron and Dark Ages have been found here, with the natural harbour formed by Trevelgue headland, which gives excellent shelter for the town’s fishing fleet, and nearby iron deposits, both attracting people to the area. In the 17th century a ‘new quay’ was built which gives the town its modern name, and in 1876 the first passenger train rolled into town, bringing the first of many millions of tourists who have visited the town over the years.

Nowadays, as well as being hugely popular with tourists, the town is undergoing a bit o

Every Wednesday here on r/ForestofBowland and r/Ribblevalley we look at some of the other small regional subreddits around the British isles, with the idea of compiling an A to Z, this week we’ve chosen r/Teignmouth, the sub for the seaside town of Teignmouth in Devon.

Teignmouth

r/Teignmouth is the subreddit for the Devon town of Teignmouth, a coastal town situated on the mouth of the river Teign about 12 miles south of Exeter, it is a handsome little town with long sandy beaches surrounded by the verdant rolling countryside which makes Devon so attractive to tourists, it is also only a few miles away from Dartmoor National Park.

There is a Victorian pier in Teignmouth, Teignmouth Grand Pier, which is over 150 years old and has many of the traditional rides and games which it would have had originally and some more modern ones such as a F1 style cart racing track! The seafront also has a heated lido which was built in 1976 which has just had extensive renovations including a heat pump to reduce emissions, other traditional beachside attractions can be found here too such as crazy golf.

Originally Teignmouth was a lot smaller than it is now, predominantly a fishing port until the 1800’s, with very close connections to the Cod fisheries of Newfoundland in the North Atlantic. However it became a very popular holiday resort about this time and when it was connected to London and the rest of the country by rail in 1846 the town changed massively, many of the fine buildings in the town centre and along the front were built by the Georgians and their charm has helped keep Teignmouth a popular holiday resort ever since.

Recently the town has undergone several regeneration projects, including the skatepark and lido, with the aim being to promote tourism and make the town more environmentally friendly. Teignmouth is also Devon’s first Fairtrade town and there is always something to see and do there with a carnival in the last week of July every year, a folk music festival and a sea shanty festival, both of which often have visiting artists from Newfoundland due to the towns connection with the area.

Stafford

r/Stafford is the subreddit for Stafford, a market town in the Midlands county of Staffordshire with a long history, having recently celebrated it’s 1,100th anniversary. It’s name comes from the Old English ‘stæð’, meaning landing place and ‘ford’ for a crossing place on a river, the river in qu

Small Regional Subreddit of the Day!

Every Wednesday here on r/ForestofBowland and r/Ribblevalley we feature a small regional subreddit from somewhere around the British isles, with the aim of creating a kind of list, an A to Z, of smaller regional subs, this week we’ve chosen Orkney.

Orkney

This week we find ourselves in the Orcadian archipelago for r/Orkney.

The Orkney islands are a scattered group of low lying islands situated in the scintillating waters which separate the North Sea from the Norwegian Sea, and owe their low lying nature, there are no mountains here and the tallest peak, Ward Hill, is only 1,560ft high, to the scouring pressure of the Norwegian ice sheets which held this part of the world under their icy grasp over 10,000 years ago in the last great ice age.

There is famously a lack of trees on these islands too, although there is plenty of life, with the air and seas of the archipelago being full of the flashings of fish, cries of seabirds and, if you are lucky, you may sight a cetacean, as many species of marine mammals are found here as well. There are plenty of prehistoric sites here, the best known being Skara brae, one of the world’s most complete Neolithic settlements, and occupied from about 3180 BC to about 2500 BC, which makes it older than Stonehenge and the Great pyramids of Giza.

The modern day centre of Orcadian life is the town of Kirkwall on the biggest island of the group, called ‘mainland’, with a population of just over 9,200 the thriving town is a transport hub for the archipelago’s ferry system and a cultural hub too, with two museums and the most northerly of the world’s Carnegie libraries, the town is also the birthplace of Groundskeeper Willie from the Simpson’s!

Newry

We nipped over to Northern Ireland for last week’s Small Regional Subreddit which was r/Newry the sub for the city of Newry. Long established as a major commercial port, Newry was founded in 1144 alongside a Cistercian abbey and is one of Ireland’s oldest towns but is also Northern Ireland’s newest city, and sits at the base of the majestic Mourne mountains, a range of Basalt and Granite over which presides 2,790ft tall Slieve Donard, Northern Ireland’s tallest mountain.

The city is now enormously popular for shopping and retail, with two main shopping centres; The Quays, and the Buttercrane Centre both attracting people all over the island, especially from the republic when exchange ra
