Places Visited National Railway Museum The National Railway Museum in York displays a collection of over 100 locomotives and nearly 300 other items of rolling stock, virtually all of which either ran on the railways of Great Britain or were built there. Also on the 20 acres site are many hundreds of thousands of other items and records of social, technical, artistic and historical interest, exhibited mostly in three large halls of a former motive power depot next to the East Coast Main Line, near York railway station. It is the largest museum of its type in Britain, attracting 727,000 visitors during the 2014/15 financial year. The National Railway Museum was established on its present site, the former York North locomotive depot, in 1975, when it took over the former British Railways collection located in Clapham and the York Railway Museum located off Queen Street, immediately to the south east of the railway station; since then, the collection has continued to grow.. http://www.nrm.org.uk/ The North Yorkshire Moors Railway The North Yorkshire Moors Railway (NYMR) is a heritage railway in North Yorkshire, England running through the North York Moors National Park. First opened in 1836 as the Whitby and Pickering Railway, the railway was planned in 1831 by George Stephenson as a means of opening up trade routes inland from the then important seaport of Whitby. The line closed in 1965 and was reopened in 1973 by the North York Moors Historical Railway Trust Ltd. The preserved line is now a significant tourist attraction and has been awarded many industry accolades. https://www.nymr.co.uk/ Keighley & Worth Valley Railway The Keighley and Worth Valley Railway is a 5-mile-long branch line that served mills and villages in the Worth Valley and is now a heritage railway line in West Yorkshire, England. It runs from Keighley to Oxenhope. It connects to the national rail network at Keighley railway station. http://kwvr.co.uk Bronte Parsonage Museum One of the oldest literary societies in the world, founded in 1893 and today having a thriving worldwide membership. The Brontë Society is a charity and depends entirely on admissions and the generosity of members for its income. It is responsible for running the famous Brontë Parsonage Museum in the picturesque village of Haworth in West Yorkshire, once the home of the Brontë family and also for promoting the Brontës' literary legacy within contemporary society. The Brontë collections at the Brontë Parsonage Museum are the largest and most important in the world and continue to inspire scholars, writers and artists. Our Contemporary Arts Programme includes literary events, exhibitions, artistic responses, a competition and festivals, and our lifelong learning programme enables us to reach students of all ages across the country.The Brontë Parsonage Museum is a writer's house museum maintained by the Brontë Society in honour of the Brontë sisters – Charlotte, Emily and Anne. The museum is in the former Brontë family home, the parsonage in Haworth, West Yorkshire, England, where the sisters spent most of their lives and wrote their famous novels. https://www.bronte.org.uk/ Leeds Industrial Museum at Armley Mills The Leeds Industrial Museum at Armley Mills is a museum of industrial heritage located in Armley, near Leeds, in West Yorkshire, Northern England. The museum includes collections of textile machinery, railway equipment and heavy engineering amongst others. The Grade II listed building housing the museum was once the world's largest woollen mill. The current structures were built in 1805 by Benjamin Gott and closed as a commercial mill in 1969. They were taken over by Leeds City Council and reopened as a museum of industrial heritage in 1982. It is located between the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and the River Aire and accessed from Canal Road or Milford Place. http://www.leeds.gov.uk/museumsandgalleries/Pages/armleymills.aspx Your Guide Tim Bryan, the current Head of Collections at the Swindon’s Heritage Motor Centre, has had an illustrious career as a museum professional working with industrial and transport collections. Having been Museum Keeper at the Great Western Railway Museum and Acting General Manager and Collections and Education Manager at its reincarnation as STEAM: Museum of the GWR, Tim was perfectly poised to write several books on the Great Western Railway as well as one on the great Brunel himself.

  • 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.
