Extract

The aims of Andrew Fleming's paper on medieval Swaledale have been to establish the degree of stability of the pattern of settlement there and to demonstrate the value of a comprehensive approach to the study of political geography and settlement history. Restrictions of space, however, have led to the omission of a treatment of agricultural activities and readers might not realise how little both the pattern of settlement and agricultural practices have changed in the course of time.
