| | | | Hartlepool: Encyclopedia II - Durham University - History
Durham University - Origins.
The strong tradition of theological teaching in Durham gave rise to various attempts to form a university there, notably under King Henry VIII and Oliver Cromwell, who actually issued letters patent for the establishment of a college in 1657. However it was not until 1832, when Parliament passed an act allowing the Dean and Chapter of Durham to fund a new university, that the University actually came into being. The Act received Royal Assent and became law on 4 July 1832. The University's Royal Charter was granted on 1 June 1837 by William IV, with th ...

In areas that currently have two-tier government (Cheshire, County Durham, Cumbria, Lancashire, North Yorkshire, Northumberland), voters were to be asked which pattern of unitary government they would like to see.
Two options were proposed by the Boundary Committee for each county in the review area - generally consisting of a single ...

| | | | Hartlepool: Encyclopedia II - Middlesbrough - History Although often thought of as a settlement with no early history, the name Middlesbrough can trace its roots back a long way. Mydilsburgh is the earliest recorded form of the name and the element 'burgh' denotes an ancient fort or settlement of pre-Saxon origin. The burgh may have included a monastic cell and was probably situated on the elevated land where the Victorian church of St Hildas (demolished in 1969) was later built, while the 'Mydil' or middle could be either a person's name or a reference to Middlesbrough's location, half way between the grea ...

Sheffield Wednesday F.C. - Early Years.
The club was formed in Sheffield on Wednesday 4 September 1867. The club was initially a cricket team, with the football being established for the winter months to keep the team together.
However, football was quickly to eclipse the cricketing side of the club. In the summer of 1882 the two teams split permanently, and by the end of 1925 the cricket team had disbanded. The football club turned professional on April 22, 1887 following a threat by key players to walk o ...

| | | | Hartlepool: Encyclopedia II - Hilda of Whitby - Sources of information Image:Wood-carving-of-saint-hilda.jpg Our only source of information about Hilda is The Ecclesiastical History of the English Church and People, written by the Venerable Bede in 731. This means that we see Hilda through the mind of a Benedictine monk who was born eight years after her death.
Bede lived all his life in the monastery of Wearmouth / Jarrow, some 65 miles NW of Whitby. He is rightly acclaimed as the father of English history. We are greatly indebted to his scholarship but we have to remember that he wrote from a pa ...

| | | | Hartlepool: Encyclopedia II - Reform Act 1867 - Background Following the Great Reform Act of 1832, it was thought prudent to introduce further electoral reform. Lord John Russell attempted this in 1860, but the then Prime Minister Lord Palmerston was against any further electoral reform. When Palmerston died in 1865, however, the floodgates for reform were opened.
Earl Russell resigned when his proposed reforms were rejected and William Gladstone became leader of the Liberal party in 1866. In 1866, Gladstone's Whig government introduced a Reform Bill. It was a cautious measure, which proposed ...

| | | | Hartlepool: Encyclopedia II - Stadium of Light - Plans and construction Follwing the release of the Taylor Report in 1989, Sunderland were obliged to make plans to turn their Roker Park home into an all-seater stadium. Roker Park was a ground that mainly consisted of standing terraces; the plans would have reduced the capacity of the ground to an estimated 9,000. Enclosed by residential streets on all sides, expansion was not an option. So, in the early 1990's, Sunderland began looking at alternative stadium plans.
The front-runner that emerged was a proposed stadium located on an area of land adjacent to ...

| | | | Hartlepool: Encyclopedia II - Peter Mandelson - Early life Mandelson was born in London in 1953 and educated at Hendon County Grammar School (now Hendon School). He is the grandson of Herbert Morrison, the London County Council leader and Labour cabinet minister. In his youth, he briefly rebelled against his family's Labour tradition and in 1971 left the Labour Party Young Socialists (LPYS) to join the Young Communist League, then the youth wing of the Communist Party of Great Britain. This move was partly a result of disagreements with the Trotskyist Militant Tendency that had just won a majority i ...
