Hibaldstow
Hibaldstow is a village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, England. The population of the civil parish at the 2011 census was 2,433. It is situated on the B1206 road, south from Brigg and the M180. The site of the deserted medieval village of Gainsthorpe is nearby. History Hibaldstow was founded as a Roman legionary 'roadside fort' on Ermine Street, the road from Lincoln to the Humber; later it became a posting station. The earliest evidence for occupation suggests a date in the late first century. Occupation continued into the late fourth century. There is no Iron Age settlement evidence from the Roman site itself. The village name derives from Saint Hygbald – a Northumbrian missionary who came to the area in the latter part of the 7th century. Described as a 'shadowy figure' the missionary became Abbot of Bardney and later a saint. Three churches around the village – then known as Ceceseg – became dedicated to him when he was made a saint. The name 'Hibaldstow' co ...

Saint Hygbald
Saint Hybald ( fl. c. 664 – c. 690), also known as Higbald, Hibald or Hygbald, was a 7th-century Saxon saint. His feastdays are 18 September and 14 December (Orthodox). Life and legacy The Venerable Bede, in his ''Ecclesiastical History'', describes St Hybald as a "most holy and continent man who was an abbot in Lindsey". It is conjectured, in the ''Dictionary of Christian Biography'' (1877–87), that this is the Benedictine abbey at Bardney, then in the old Kingdom of Lindsey, now Lincolnshire. In 679, Osthryth, queen of Mercia, sought to move the remains of her uncle, St Oswald, to Bardney, Catholic Encyclopedia: St Oswald but the monks refused to accept the body because Oswald, as king of Northumbria, had once conquered Lindsey. The remains were locked outside the abbey but the appearance of a mysterious beam of light, that night, led the monks to reconsider. (as ) Hybald was also a friend of Saint Chad, and, had a prophetic vision of his death. He later, followe ...

School Boards In England And Wales
School boards were public bodies in England and Wales between 1870 and 1902, which established and administered elementary schools. School boards were created in boroughs and parishes under the Elementary Education Act 1870 following campaigning by George Dixon, Joseph Chamberlain and the National Education League for elementary education free from Anglican doctrine. Education was still not free of fees. Members were directly elected, not appointed by borough councils or parishes. Each board could: *raise funds from a rate *build and run non-denominational schools where existing voluntary provision was inadequate *subsidise church schools where appropriate *pay the fees of the poorest children *if they deemed it necessary, create a by-law making attendance compulsory between ages 5–13 - until the Elementary Education Act 1880 when it became compulsory for all. *were not to impose any religious education, other than simple Bible reading Unusually for the time, women were el ...
