“Captain Swing” riots

ENGLAND isn’t much of a place for revolutions but the quiet rural landscape of East Hampshire was one of the sites in 1830 which could have become the turning point of a popular uprising.

The events leading up to, and consequences of, mobs attempting to destroy the workhouses in Selborne and Headley have been researched by local historian and writer John Owen Smith, whose play Riot! dramatising the unrest is touring venues this month.

The bare facts of the incidents in late November are that several hundred men attacked the workhouse in Selborne, turned out the occupants, burned or broke the fittings and furniture and pulled down the roof

November 21, 22 and 23 1830
The Vicar of Selborne, William Cobbold, was confronted by the mob who demanded he give up some of his tithe or income for a rise in pay for the labourers. They then went to the workhouse, setting fire to furniture.

 

Held by: The National Archives, Kew

Reference: HO 17/50/96
Description: Date: 1831 Jan 28

1 individual petition (William Cobbold, Vicar of Selborne) against John Heath convicted with Aaron Harding at Hampshire Special Assizes Winchester December 1830 for demolishing Headley workhouse because 'they are the most desperate and daring characters who should not be let loose on society again'. Grounds for clemency: enclosed signed affidavits, with covering letter, from Joseph Cobb, Andrew Knight, Hori Smith, Charlotte Heath, Sarah Adams and Thomas Ralss all claiming prisoner was not on roof of workhouse removing tiles. Initial sentence: death commuted to life transportation. HP30
