Alan M WadsworthDr Alan Wadsworth was brought up on a farm on the edge of the Yorkshire Pennines. Educated at Durham and Lancaster Universities, his study of mathematics and its applications resulted in a career in the electricity supply industry. Having led a volunary project recording and researching historic farm buildings in Wiltshire from 2012 to 2016, he set up a similar project on moving to Worcestershire in 2017. This work places individual farms in their economic and landscape contexts. His recent publication The farming diaries of Thomas Pinniger (2021) is based on records kept by a Wiltshire farmer from 1813 to 1847. Currently, research is being undertaken on the farms of a Worcestershire estate, a study of a set of farm diaries covering the period 1931 to 1939, and the implementation of late enclosure in Worcestershire.
