1 The shepherd ar Ireley in 1865 was John Coldicutt.2 The carter at Ireley in 1865 was Richard Robbins. Senior farm workers

were often designated by their occupation rather than their name.* Young pigs were sometimes purchased from farmers by farm workers for

fattening and slaughter at home. The family pig, like the garden or allotment, was an important part of the domestic economy of low income families.

4 Dinge and Ewe Leasow were field names, see Appendix C.5 Thomas Lovsey was obviously a farm servant, hired by the year, whose

contract of employment included board and lodging. He would probably have been in his early teens.

6 Hoeing was usually undertaken on a piecework basis.7 The thatching of hay, corn and straw ricks was a

piecework.8 Harvest money was a form of bonus, often given to senior farm workers

such as shepherds, cowmen, or carters whose duties precluded them from participating in the more lucrative harvest work which was paid at piece rates.

’ Weeds were the farmer’s most constant enemy and they were mowed and hoed relentlessly to prevent propagation and spread.

10 The handwriting changed at this point. The previous hand, and the hand of the account book, is undoubtedly that of Thomas Smith. The new hand is probably that of Thomas Barnett, Smith’s farm bailiff, who lived with the family at Ireley Farm. 1871 Census, Hailes, P.R.O. RG 10/2656.

11 This worker has not appeared before and does not appear in the labour book either. This may mean that he was a farm servant, boarded at the farmhouse and paid by the year. This pay date roughly coincides with the date of the traditional annual Michaelmas hiring (around the eleventh of October) and was undoubtedly the man or youth’s wage for the year.

12 This was John Coldicutt's last appearance in the wage book. His replacement as shepherd would seem to have been Belcher, who appeared for the first time in the following pay week, ending 20 October.

n The writing reverted to the original hand at this point.14 This entry seems confusing but it indicates that the two men were working

together on a piecework contract. They had obviously completed one job and had another in progress for which Smith was paying them part of the money in advance of completion of the contract. This payment ‘on account’ was a common practice, for piecework contracts could sometimes take several weeks to complete.

15 Smith’s original total was £159 19s. 4£d. but he had crossed this through and substituted £157 Ils. 2|d.

16 Smith had 52 pay dates, but only 5 1 pay totals in this year. The dates and totals are not properly aligned and it is impossible to tell which one was omitted.

17 The week ending April 6 seems to have been omitted from the weekly record, although a total has been included in the annual summary.

18 ’Draining’ work consisted of the digging of field drainage trenches and the installation of tile drainage pipes. A good drainage system would have been essential on some of the heavier clay land of Ireley Farm.

” This total includes the 15s. paid to Davis above.20 These three men are good examples of the itinerant harvest workers who

worked their way from farm to farm and district to district during the short harvest periods.

21 Belcher, the shepherd who replaced Coldicutt in October 1866, left on this

dare. It appears from both wage and labour books that he was not replaced. But as sheep continued to be bred and reared on the farm this is difficult to believe. For some reason Smith must have ceased to enter the shepherd’s wages in the wagebook, perhaps employing his shepherd on the same basis as a farm servant.

22 This pay date was omitted by Smith from his annual summary.Smith had thoroughly confused these two entries, as reference to the weekly

record shows. Together, they should total £7 6s. 3d., but the figures given here by Smith total £7 Is. 3d.

Smith had omitted to include this figure in his annual summary.n A group of lands, or strips, composed a furlong block. The term ’land’ is

obviously a survival from the open-field system of cultivation. The open fields were sub-divided into furlongs which in turn were sub-divided into lands, or strips. There is still much evidence of ridge and furrow in the fields of Ireley Farm.

•6 David Preston came to Ireley as cowman. He does not seem to have replaced anyone in the wage book, so perhaps his predecessor was paid by the year and therefore did not appear in its pages, much as the shepherd disappeared from the book in 1867.

27 It was supposedly customary for employers to provide senior farm workers such as shepherds, cowmen and carters with a rent-free house (the tied cottage), although this seems not to have been a universal practice in Gloucestershire. In this case. Smith obviously did not have a cottage to let to Preston and so paid him a rent allowance in lieu.

Labour Book References1 The harvesting of corn crops using the scythe as opposed to the slower and

more labour-intensive reaping hook and sickle was part of the revolution in hand-tool technology which took place over most of Britain during the first two-thirds of the nineteenth century. Barley and oats were the first corn crops to succumb to the scythe at harvest time. Wheat harvesting went through an intermediate reaping stage in many areas with the heavier, faster bagging or fagging hook before the scythe was used. The culmination of this movement towards faster and less labour-intensive methods of harvesting was the introduction of mechanisation in the form of the horse-drawn reaping machine in the eighteen-fifties. But British farmers were slow to adopt the reaping machine and by 1870 only an estimated twenty five per cent of the British corn area was harvested by machine. E.J.T. Collins, Harvest Technology and Labour Supply in Britain 1790—1870, unpublished Ph.D. thesis, Nottingham University, 1970.Grass seems to have been mowed with a scythe on Ireley Farm in the eighteen- sixties, although the horse-drawn mowing machine was available in the late eighteen-fifties.

2 Once hay, corn, and straw ricks had been thatched, the thatch had to be pared off and tidied up around the edges. Most ricks were thatched until the late nineteenth century, when mass-produced rick cloths proved to be a cheaper and more durable alternative to thatch.

5 Ashes, whether from straw burning or the burning of other organic matter, were often used as a form of fertiliser.

4 Drawn straw was straw which had been manually split and straightened. It was commonly used in bundles for thatching ricks, or in the making of straw rope and straw plait.

Many individuals are mentioned by name in the Ireley Farm Account Book (Glos. R.O. D2 163/2) but the names mean little without some indication of the trade, profession or occupation of these people. For this reason, 1 have attempted to identify them. The attempt was not completely successful, not least because there were several people with the same surname following different trades or professions at the same point in time, and it was impossible to be certain which one of them was trading with Thomas Smith. Where this has happened, I have listed all the individuals concerned. I have been unable to trace a few of the people named, but the bulk of Smith’s business and other associates are recorded here. The result is a fairly comprehensive record of the pattern of buying and selling in a rural community during the eighteen-sixties.

The Ireley Farm wage book (Glos. R.O. D2 163/1) provides a great deal of information concerning the income of the men, women and children employed by Thomas Smith, and the labour book (Glos. R.O.

But however useful this information might be as it stands, it is much more useful when it is related to family composition, that is, when we know how many mouths the money earned had to feed and whether or not there were other wage earners in the family.

I have therefore attempted to identify all the workers mentioned in both books and to list all the members of their families. The problems encountered with this exercise were much the same as those encountered in Appendix A, that it was impossible to be certain which one of a group of people with the same surname and occupation was the individual employed by Thomas Smith. As with Appendix A, I have therefore listed all of them.Source:Census of Population1861 1871

APPENDIX CIreley Farm in the Nineteenth Century

There seems to be no extant survey or map of the Toddington estate of Lord Sudeley contemporary with Thomas Smith’s tenancy, so it is not possible to draw a map or list the field names of Ireley Farm as it was during the period covered by these accounts, 1865 — 187 1. Two detailed surveys of the estate survive from the nineteenth century, one from 1802 and one from 1894. In 1802 the Ireley tenancy consisted of three farms: Caudles, Sheephouse, and Ireley, totalling some 268 acres. According to the 1871 census Smith’s Ireley tenancy consisted of 324 acres, but the detailed composition of the farm remains a blank. By the time of the 1894 valuation of the Toddington estate the Ireley acreage had increased to 459 acres having taken in the adjoining Hailes Hill Farm.

Parts of the two estate surveys relating to Ireley Farm, and details of the additional land rented by Smith at White Hills, adjacent to Ireley, are reproduced below:1. Ireley Farm, 1802. Source: Estate Papers, Lord Sudeley of Toddington, Glos. R.O. D2153 Au/16.‘Particulars of Estates situate at Pinnock, Hyde and Ford upon the Hills, and Hailes, Didbrook and Toddington in the Vale of the County of Gloucester, the Property of Charles Hanbury Tracy, Esq., 1802.’‘Caudles Farm rented by Mr. James Dobbins consists of an old building of Stone and tiled occupied as two Tenements by Labourers which wants some repair in the Roof; adjoining to this House the tenant has put up a very good Malthouse (Timber being found him) built of Stone and tiled, having a good Kiln, Cistern for welling 7 Quarters at a time, and good drying Rooms and Binns over. - Detached at a small distance is an old Stable, adjoining Poors Houses, which as well as the Poor Houses, are in very bad repair — The Lands which have been usually held with these Buildings are Tithe free, and as follows, Vizt.

These would be field beans for animal feed, rather than garden beans for human consumption. They were usually harvested ripe and ground into meal.

Beast General term for cattle being fattened.Bentalling, This term probably referred to cultivation with the aid of one at Bentall of the numerous implements manufactured by the firm of

E.H. Bentall, Maldon, Essex. The most likely candidate would seem to be Bentall’s Patent Light Broadshare, Cultivator and Subsoil Plough, a versatile implement which, by means of changing the attachments, could be used for a variety of cultivating purposes.The breast plough, or breast spade, was an implement

ploughing operated by one man and consisted of a shaft of about six feet in length attached to a v-shaped iron blade. The shaft was flattened towards the end nearest the ploughman and was tenoned to a cross-handle. The implement was pushed from the thighs, the blade being thrust forward in jerks against the surface of the ground by the force of the body. Breast ploughing was done in the spring or autumn on the Cots- wolds, often when grass leys were broken up, the turf being pared off, collected in heaps and burned, the residual ash being valued as a fertiliser.Hay or straw cut up into small pieces and used for feeding cattle and horses.Sprouting seed potatoes before planting by exposing them in well-lighted conditions. The objective was to shorten the growing time.A short-legged, stocky variety of horse.This was bird scaring, the traditional occupation of young

or boys on the farm. Prior to the introduction of the EducationActs of the eighteen-seventies, a boy could expect to start work in the fields, probably scaring crows, at between eight and ten years of age.The drag was one of a group of horse-drawn implements used during the course of autumn and spring preparation of the seed bed following ploughing. The group included cultivators,

as animal feed.

One of the first concentrated animal feedingstuffs. It was used rn several ways:1. In its natural state, boiled or crushed, and given in combination with other foods.2. Ground into meal, but also frequently boiled and given in combination with other foods.3. As linseed cake: the refuse part of the seed left after the oil had been extracted, compressed into a cake. It was much prized, not only as a fattening agent and an aid to milk production, but because the dung from cattle fed on linseed cake was rich in phosphates.Mangold wurzels, or mangels, members of the beet family used as cattle fodder.

Nag horse A small riding horse or pony.Peas These would be field, rather than garden peas. Like field beans

they could be cut green, but were more usually harvested ripe. When dried and ground they were used as meal, for fattening pigs or, together with oil-cake or bruised oats, in the feeding of sheep and cattle. They could be, and frequently were used for domestic purposes as well.

The pastures were prepared for stocking during April by beating and spreading old droppings and removing any sticks and stones. The mowing grounds, which would probably have been grazed after the hay harvest, were prepared in the same way.These were sheep hurdles, used for folding, or penning sheep, or as a wind shelter during the lambing season. Gloucestershire hurdles were usually gate hurdles made from split ash poles, but they were also made from coppice hazel or willow wattle.Maize, imported and used

grubbers, scarifiers, scufflers, harrows, drags, and rollers. Their common purpose was to break up the soil and reduce it to a fine tilth.

Drill Horse-drawn mechanical seed drill.Faggoting Converting the wood trimmed from the hedges and woodland

on the farm into bundles of faggots, which were then sold by the farmer as firewood.Harness for draught animals.

Another horse-drawn cultivating implement, a cross between a horse-hoe and a harrow.A sheep between its first and second shearings.A sheep after its first shearing.The skim, or paring plough, was used to clean stubble, weeds, and other rubbish from the surface of the soil prior to cultivation proper.A young ox, usually (but not always) one which had been castrated.A young bullock or heifer, usually between one and two years old.Removing loose stones from the surface of the pastures and mowing grounds, or from the fields sown with spring grains. A sheep from the time it is weaned until its first shearing,

or A leguminous forage plant; it could be cut green, cut for hay, or harvested as a seed crop.Making cut beans, peas, etc., into heaps ready for carting.A male sheep or ram, especially a castrated ram.Varieties:1. Red wheat: hardy and more easily grown than the white varieties, but of inferior milling quality.2. White wheat: not so hardy or prolific as the red varieties, but of good milling quality.3. Winter wheat: wheat sown in late autumn or early winter.4. Spring wheat: wheat sown in early spring.

Couch grass, also referred to as squitch.An animal that was defective on unhealthy in some way.
