JUNE. 1922. DIED: 8. JANUARY. 2003. (80 YEARS OLD) ~ 4 ~ INTRODUCTION Dear Mum (You suffered with a Bi-Polar disorder for most of your adult life) I have a great need to write down the deep feelings I have for the part my Mum played in shaping my life. As you read on you may question and you may criticize, but hopefully you will understand, they are my feelings only, please respect them. For a big part of her life my Mum had an illness disorder known as “Bi-polar or Manic depression” The illness tends to run in families and appears to have a genetic link in fact this illness is and was prevalent in the Daulton family. So now what are you thinking? Some of you will immediately say “oh gosh” I don’t want to know and put this away in the too hard file. Some of you will read on through curiosity and respect and then file it. But I sincerely hope some of you will show a genuine interest and will openly and with deep concern continue on with your learning of this illness.

  • MS Dep 1980/1 Archives of the Dean and Chapter Of
    Handlist 47 LEEDS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Archives of the Dean and Chapter of Ripon MS Dep 1980/1 The greater part of their accumulated archives was very generously deposited recently in the Brotherton Library of the University of Leeds by the Dean and Chapter of Ripon. It is hoped that by this arrangement the material will be more conveniently accessible to the majority of researchers. A few items, however, remain at Ripon because they are currently in use or are on permanent display to visitors. The cathedral was a parish church before it was raised to its present status and the parish registers are deposited at the North Yorkshire County Record Office, Northallerton. This list includes both the material remaining at Ripon and that at Northallerton. The archives of the Dean and Chapter have been listed twice before. A summary list was prepared for the Pilgrim Trust in 1946. A much fuller list was compiled for the National Register of Archives (Historical Manuscripts Commission) and issued in 1959. Upon the archives being inspected after their arrival at Leeds it was immediately apparent that the collection contained even more than had been listed in 1959, and it was decided with the ready concurrence of the Commission, that a new listing would be essential. This new list has been designed to avoid as much confusion as possible. It follows the style and numeration of the 1959 list and new entries have been inserted as close as possible to suitable places within its original framework. Some documents had identifications unrelated to the serial numbers used in that list; they have now been numbered to correspond and the additional items have been given appropriate subdivisions within the original notation.

  • Growth Strategy
    Harrogate District Local Plan: Publication Draft 2018 Harrogate District Growth Strategy Harrogate Borough Council 23 Harrogate District Local Plan: Publication Draft 2018 3 Harrogate District Growth Strategy Harrogate District Growth Strategy: Key Facts Household projections show household growth across the district of 11% between 2004-35, which is a lower level of growth than the region (15%) and England (20%). The three main urban areas of Harrogate, Knaresborough and Ripon support the largest concentrations of the district's population. Since the Harrogate District Local Plan was adopted in 2001 these settlements, together with the market towns of Boroughbridge, Masham and Pateley Bridge, have accommodated the majority of new growth. The district has a large rural area containing villages and hamlets ranging from larger villages with local services and facilities down to small clusters of houses. There is a need to ensure that rural settlements can continue to support local village services. The district has high levels of employment and the highest rate of business start-ups of any district within the Leeds City Region. The district’s residents are some of the most qualified in the north of England. The local economy has a number of prominent high-value sectors (including wholesale, professional services and media) alongside a thriving visitor economy. Despite high resident skill levels and average earnings, workplace wages in the district are considerably lower than the regional and national average, with a disproportionate skew in local employment towards low value sectors. In the west of the district lies the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), which covers some 233 sq miles; more generally the district has high quality natural, built and historic environments.
