Welsh Lost Lands
The Lost Lands of Wales was a minor political idea of the mid 1960s regarding areas along the east side of the England-Wales border which its proponents considered to be Welsh. The idea was propounded by the ''Lost Lands Liberation League'' and included parts of the counties of Cheshire, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire and Shropshire.
==History==
The Council of Wales and the Marches, administered from Ludlow Castle, was initially established in 1472 by Edward IV of England to govern the lands held under the Principality of Wales which had become directly administered by the English crown following the Edwardian conquest of Wales in the 13th century.〔William Searle Holdsworth, "A History of English Law," Little, Brown, and Company, 1912, pg. 502〕
Some Marcher lordships were added to adjoining English counties: Ludlow, Clun, Caus and part of Montgomery were incorporated into Shropshire; Wigmore, Huntington, Clifford and most of Ewyas were included in Herefordshire; and that part of Chepstow east of the River Wye was included in Gloucestershire.
The Council of Wales, based at Ludlow Castle, was reconstituted as the Council of Wales and the Marches, with statutory responsibilities for the whole of Wales together with, initially, Cheshire, Shropshire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. The City of Bristol was exempted in 1562, and Cheshire in 1569.〔( Welsh Joint Education Committee: The Council of Wales and the Marches )〕〔( J. A. Ransome, ''This Realm of England'' )〕 The Council was eventually abolished in 1689, following the "Glorious Revolution" which overthrew James II (VII of Scotland) and established William III (William of Orange) as king.
