  • Bradford Canal: Rebuilding a Lost Waterway
    AINA CASE STUDY PLACE MAKING AND SHAPING Bradford Canal: rebuilding a lost waterway Bold plans for city centre regeneration include linking a new canal to a major civic space The Bradford Canal was built as a five kilometre spur off the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, but closed in 1922 due to dwindling traffic and unreliable water supply. Today, little evidence remains of its former route. In 2003 a masterplan prepared for Bradford city centre focussed on the use of water as a catalyst for the city’s future regeneration, and a range of innovative proposals included the reintroduction of the canal. Since then a great deal of progress has been made to determine a practical and deliverable route for the new waterway, using a route which would minimise costs whilst maximising the regeneration potential within the canal corridor. A new canal would extend the national network, though the prime aim would be to encourage large scale improvement within some of the more deprived parts of Bradford. The canal would form the physical thread to link a series of development sites and make them more attractive to developers and investors through increased land and development values. Further development work has been undertaken to ensure connections with a series of water-based projects, including the new City Park, complete with lake, adjacent to City Hall. This project started on site in November 2009 and will be complete in summer 2011. It is believed to be the largest public realm regeneration project in Europe, and key to its success has been a detailed analysis of the hydrology and flood risk issues which will ensure practical connectivity of water supply between the park and the future canal.

The majority of the coast is unsettled, with rocky cliffs displaying complex, folded strata backed by coastal heath and rough maritime grassland. The landscape retains high levels of tranquillity and evokes a wild, exposed character, disrupted in the south by tourism-related development around the coastal headland from Woolacombe. All of the landscape falls within the North Devon Heritage Coast and most is owned by the National Trust. LANDSCAPE DESCRIPTION LANDFORM / TOPOGRAPHY Landform description Undulating, rocky coastline punctuated by small coves and bays. Cliffs up to 100 metres high display a complex geology of mainly Upper Devonian sandstones and slates. Cliffs are backed by often steeply sloping land with rounded summits.

  • Geophysics in the Minster Environs, Warminster, Wiltshire, 2014
    Geophysics in the Minster Environs, Warminster, Wiltshire, 2014. Mat Charlton and John Oswin with contributions from Mark Corney Bath and Camerton Archaeological Society & Artefact it Ltd i Abstract As part of the Warminster Heritage Lottery project, a number of geophysical surveys using resistance and magnetometry techniques were conducted on various sites in the northern portion of Warminster town in Wiltshire, the research aim being to search for signs of occupation pre-dating the development of the mediaeval market town. The survey would also look for any possible church buildings away from the present minster church, which is predominantly a Victorian rebuild? The sites were the only open spaces available, but those of any size were in use as school playing fields, which had undergone grading and so rearranged the topsoil. Nonetheless, there were a number of indications of possible earlier settlement, although these appeared to be prehistoric rather than pre-Norman. These could be on dry terrace or right down on the flood plain of the Were Stream. Limited surveying close to the church and observation of architectural features, suggested that any previous Minster church was most likely to be under or very close to the present church.

  • Report on Rare Birds in Great Britain in 1996 M
    British Birds Established 1907; incorporating 'The Zoologist', established 1843 Report on rare birds in Great Britain in 1996 M. J. Rogers and the Rarities Committee with comments by K. D. Shaw and G. Walbridge A feature of the year was the invasion of Arctic Redpolls Carduelis homemanni and the associated mass of submitted material. Before circulations began, we feared the worst: a huge volume of contradictory reports with differing dates, places and numbers and probably a wide range of criteria used to identify the species. In the event, such fears were mostly unfounded. Several submissions were models of clarity and co-operation; we should like to thank those who got together to sort out often-confusing local situations and presented us with excellent files. Despite the numbers, we did not resort to nodding reports through: assessment remained strict, but the standard of description and observation was generally high (indeed, we were able to enjoy some of the best submissions ever). Even some rejections were 'near misses', usually through no fault of the observers. Occasionally, one or two suffered from inadequate documentation ('Looked just like bird A' not being quite good enough on its own). Having said that, we feel strongly that the figures presented in this report are minimal and a good many less-obvious individuals were probably passed over as 'Mealies' C. flammea flammea, often when people understandably felt more inclined to study the most distinctive Arctics. The general standard of submissions varies greatly. We strongly encourage individuality, but the use of at least the front of the standard record form helps.

  • Saltaire Bingley and Nab Wood
    SALTAIRE, BINGLEY & NAB WOOD A 5.5 mile easy going walk, mainly at the side of the Leeds/Liverpool Canal and the River Aire with a pleasant halfway stop in Myrtle Park, Bingley, with no stiles and just one short hill through Nab Wood. At the end of the walk, do allow time to explore Salts Mill (see below). Start point: Saltaire Station, Victoria Road, Saltaire (trains every 30 minutes from Leeds). SALTAIRE is the name of a Victorian era model village. In December 2001, Saltaire was designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. This means that the government has a duty to protect the site. The buildings belonging to the model village are individually listed, with the highest level of protection being given to the Congregational Church (since 1972 known as the United Reformed Church) which is listed grade I. The village has survived remarkably complete. Saltaire was founded in 1853 by Sir Titus Salt, a leading industrialist in the Yorkshire woollen industry. The name of the village is a combination of the founder's surname with the name of the river. Salt moved his entire business (five separate mills) from Bradford to this site near Shipley partly to provide better arrangements for his workers than could be had in Bradford and partly to site his large textile mill by a canal and a railway. Salt built neat stone houses for his workers (much better than the slums of Bradford), wash-houses with running water, bath-houses, a hospital, as well as an Institute for recreation and education, with a library, a reading room, a concert hall, billiard room, science laboratory and gymnasium.

  • Conservation in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, 1942-65, from the Diaries of Charles Elton K
    Walking back in Time: Conservation in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire, 1942-65, from the Diaries of Charles Elton K. J. Kirby . Summary The diaries of Charles Elton, a father of community ecology, give details of over 300 visits in the counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire between 1940 and 1965 (excluding those made to Wytham Woods near Oxford that are reported separately). The entries illustrate the changes that took place in the countryside in the post-war period; the idiosyncrasies of protected site selection at that time; and some of the management challenges that had to be overcome. Though inevitably a partial record they provide insights relevant to modern conservation. Modern conservationists should ensure that at least the equivalent record is passed on to future generations. Introduction Charles S. Elton, FRS, CBE (1900-1991) was one of the fathers of community ecology (Elton 1966) and the first editor of the Journal of Animal Ecology. He created and directed the Bureau of Animal Population from 1932 until his retirement in 1965 (Crowcroft 1991). The Bureau was absorbed into the Department of Zoology and Elton continued to have an office there for some years after his retirement. He was also a key figure in the early years of the Nature Conservancy which was set up in 1949, the forerunner of Natural England and the other statutory conservation agencies, and was involved in discussions on which sites should be become reserves or Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs).
