“The History of Cumbrian Farmhouse Cooking”
Presenter: Ivan Day
After previous presentations about the architecture of Cumbrian farmhouses and fireplaces, we now turn to a nationally known – but Shap-based – historian of food and culinary culture, Ivan Day, to tell us about the food that has been prepared at those fireplaces across the centuries.
Ivan is a renowned author, and has often featured on BBC programs to recreate historic British recipes and cooking techniques.

Event Details
“Wealth and Possessions in Early Modern Asby”
– A study of Wills and Inventories
Presenter: Keith Cooper
Mid to late Sixteenth Century wills are one of the few (perhaps the only) documents in which we can hear the voices of Elizabethan Asbeians speaking in the first person, as they set out bequests and arrangements for the care of family members. The inventories of their possessions, made very shortly after death, offer insights into their wealth – or lack of it – and their agricultural practices, as well as details of their clothing, kitchen equipment, and furniture; many items with names which have long gone from daily use.
Keith is part way through a study of nearly 250 Asby wills and inventories from the mid-Sixteenth to the mid-Eighteenth Century and will share some of his findings from the first tranche of Sixteenth Century documents.
