  • Airedale One Year On.Indd
    Airedale Corridors One Year on Airedale Corridors The Masterplan One Year On Airedale Corridors One Year on Airedale Masterplan The launch of the Airedale Masterplan in March 2005 triggered a £2bn regeneration programme that will shape the Valley and position it as a key economic component of the city region. Progress to date has been exhilarating with the document embedded in strategic planning, transport and economic strategies and policy at regional and city region level. Property markets are rising fast in all sectors encouraging new residents to settle and businesses to invest in Airedale. Funding from Yorkshire Forward, Central Government and other bodies has been secured and is already being invested in strategic projects. Vibrant town centres are attracting people to Airedale and providing local amenities for residents The concepts of Rural Backdrop and the Creative, Connected and Lifestyle Corridors established themes for investment and provides a framework that allows everyone to take a stake in the regeneration of Airedale. This integrated process has caught the imaginations of many different and infl uential organisations including British Waterways, Yorkshire Water, Network Rail, Metro, Airedale Hospital and local businesses. Towpath restoration along the Leeds & Liverpool Canal at Saltaire is an example of infrastructure improvements enhancing the environment Airedale Corridors One Year on Adjacent to the new A650 Bingley Relief Road, the Britannia Wharfe residential development is symbolic of urban renewal in Airedale Embedding the Strategy Work has gone on behind the scenes embedding the strategy into regional policy that gives the Masterplan credibility and a basis for co-ordination and leverage of investment and action.

In 1953 it was reported that a manuscript, dating from1290 allegedly mentioned that a S UFO flew over the Abbey. We discover the truth about this story, the history of the Abbey and take a look around its remains. For those who like nostalgia, Hornsea Pottery is recalled on a summer holiday. We find out the success of the business and its eventual decline. There is also advice on collecting Hornsea pottery and learn about the Hornsea Pottery Society. Another nostalgic story is the lost gardens of Harrogate. These were once Harrogate’s Royal Hall Spa Gardens. They were delightful and tranquil with pergolas and carved marble figures, but were destroyed in the late 1950s. This story reveals its history and sad demise.

  • SHIPLEY TIMES and EXPRESS 1882 to 1899 1 4 February 1882
    SHIPLEY TIMES AND EXPRESS 1882 to 1899 1 4 February 1882 Early in the morning, a young boatman named George Hardman, from Todmorden, was found lying insensible on the towing path of the canal at a lonely spot in the outskirts of Rochdale. He was bleeding from wounds on the head, and died soon after he was discovered. It is supposed that he has been murdered. 2 25 February 1882 Mary Rafferty was charged before the Chester magistrates with wandering about in a nude state on the previous night. The woman said she had been quarrelling with her husband, a boatman, and that he first stripped her naked, and then carried her to the canal bank, where he left her. The prisoner could not be put in the dock, and the Bench granted a remand until clothes could be obtained for her from the workhouse. 3 11 March 1882 The funeral of Benjamin Evans, boatman, Carmarthen, upon whose remains the verdict of felo de se was lately returned, occurred at the local cemetery a few days ago, although the family of the deceased have a grave in St David's parish churchyard, and the coroner's warrant directed the burial there. The vicar, the Rev S R Waters, refused permission to open the grave, stating that the law did not require it, as Carmarthen possessed a public burial place in the cemetery. The matter being urgent, and the vicar obdurate, a grave was hastily prepared within consecrated ground at the cemetery, and here deceased was at half past ten placed without service of any sort.
