Street Naming Decision Report to the Foredyke Area Committee Wards : Kingswood, North Carr, 18 March 2020 West Carr Street Naming Decision Report of the Assistant Director Digital and ICT, Digital Services, Finance and Transformation Directorate. This item is not exempt Therefore exempt reasons are not applicable This is a Non-Key Decision 1. Purpose of the Report and Summary 1.1 A Leader Decision Record dated May 2011 delegates to Area Committees all executive decisions on matters that exclusively affect their area. This allows Area Committees to deal with street naming requests within their boundaries. 1.2 This report makes recommendations about two new street names for a new residential development of 143 houses on Kingswood Parks, Parcel H26, Lumley Avenue, Kingston upon Hull. 2. Recommendations 2.1 That BERWICK DRIVE and ALNMOUTH CLOSE are agreed as street names for the new residential development of 143 houses on Kingswood Parks, Parcel H26, Lumley Avenue, Kingston upon Hull. 3. Reasons for Recommendations 3.1 This is a statutory function under the Public Health Act 1925 that has been delegated to Area Committees. Author: Status: Date: 10/03/2020 Page 1 of 10 3.2 The proposed names are suggested by the developer and are free from duplication or other concerns. 4. Impact on other Executive Committees (including Area Committees) 4.1 No impact on other Executive Committees. This Development is wholly within the Foredyke Area Committee Boundary 5. Background 5.1 Street naming is carried out under the provisions of the British Standards BS7666-1:2006 and BS7666-2:2006. This is intended to provide a nationally consistent system for identifying each area of the country by address within a grid reference point. 5.2 The statutory provisions regarding street naming are found in Sections 17 – 19 of the Public Health Act 1925 5.3 The Council is contractually a member of the Public Services Mapping Agreement (PSMA) through which it receives all its mapping data, and the national Data Cooperation Agreement (DCA) which requires the Council to provide street and property data to a national hub in accordance with published nationally recognised Data Entry Conventions Documents. 5.4 Accurate meaningful and timely street naming is of critical importance to the emergency services in delivering their services. 5.5 In practical terms the Data Entry Conventions are interpreted by the Council so that street names and numbers comply with the following constraints: • That a street will not normally be named after a living person except in exceptional circumstances. • Use of the names of the deceased must have acceptance from the family or estate administrators. Prior to use. • That streets would not normally be named after a locality, town or settlement; • That street names would not normally duplicate another name in use either within the boundary or in the same post town, or in close proximity in an adjacent authority. • Names that construe marketing are not acceptable. • The use of numbers in street names which could be misconstrued should be avoided. e.g., 20 Seven Foot Lane sounds like 27 Foot Lane. • Cannot be longer than 100 characters. • Abbreviations should not be used other than St for Saint. • Pedestrian streets should only be suffixed Walk, Path, Way or Author: Status: Date: 10/03/2020 Page 2 of 10 Mall. • Must not end in ‘s if it can be construed as possessive or plural. 5.6 Membership of the PSMA stipulates that naming proposals comply with these constraints, therefore the requirement is contractual rather than statutory. 6. Issues for Consideration 6.1 The Council’s street naming and addressing team received a request for addresses for a development of 143 Houses on a green field development site north of Grosvenor Road, Kingston upon Hull. This development will require two new street names. Access to the development will be from Grosvenor Road and Lumley Avenue. Following consultation with the developer the street naming and numbering officer has suggested that the new streets be named in keeping with the history of the area. Recent development on the adjacent site took street names derived from historic sites in Northumberland. The developer has proposed the following street names for the new streets following the same theme. None of the proposed street names are duplicated in Hull : DUNSTANBURGH Dunstanburgh Castle is a 14th-century fortification on the coast of Northumberland in northern England, between the villages of Craster and Embleton. The castle was built by Earl Thomas of Lancaster between 1313 and 1322, taking advantage of the site's natural defences and the existing earthworks of an Iron Age fort. Spelling or pronunciation might be an issue, e.g. berg, burg, boro, brough, etc. This proposal is acceptable with reservations. ALNWICK Alnwick Castle is a castle and country house in Alnwick in the English county of Northumberland. It is the seat of The 12th Duke of Northumberland, built following the Norman conquest and renovated and remodelled a number of times. After Windsor Castle, it is the second largest inhabited castle in England. This proposal is acceptable. LINDISFARNE The Holy Island of Lindisfarne, commonly known as either Holy Island or Lindisfarne is a tidal island off the northeast coast of England. Holy Island has a recorded history from the 6th century AD; it was an important centre of Celtic Christianity under Saints Aidan of Author: Status: Date: 10/03/2020 Page 3 of 10 Lindisfarne, Cuthbert, Eadfrith of Lindisfarne and Eadberht of Lindisfarne. After the Viking invasions and the Norman conquest of England, a priory was re-established. A small castle was built on the island in 1550. This proposal is acceptable. WARKWORTH Warkworth Castle is a ruined medieval building in the village of the same name in the English county of Northumberland. The village and castle occupy a loop of the River Coquet, less than a mile from England's north-east coast. Spelling or pronunciation might be an issue, e.g. Walkworf, Workwuff, etc. This proposal is acceptable with reservations. AYDON Aydon Castle, previously sometimes called Aydon Hall, is a fortified manor house at Aydon near to the town of Corbridge, Northumberland, England. Possible confusion with Aidan and duplication of existing street name. i.e. St Aidan’s Way. We therefore do not recommend. BERWICK Berwick-upon-Tweed sits at the most northerly tip of Northumberland, just 3 miles from the Scottish Border. The town of Berwick suffered centuries of conflict, as control of the town passed back and forward between England and Scotland until the late 17th century. Each crisis brought repairs and improvements to the fortifications, culminating in the great artillery ramparts begun in 1558. These survive largely intact and make Berwick one of the most important fortified towns of Europe. This proposal is acceptable. The developer has stated a preference for this street name. ALNMOUTH Alnmouth was established as a village by William de Vesci, the then local Norman magnate who was granted a charter in 1152 to hold court and establish a settlement on a 296 acres (120 ha) spit of land in the manor of Lesbury, presumably to establish a viable seaport. Once an important grain port, a ferocious storm on Christmas Eve in 1806 altered the course of the river, stranding the harbour and changing village life forever. The effects of the decline in port traffic were offset by a new role for the village, as a holiday and second-home resort. This proposal is acceptable. The developer has stated a preference for this street name. BIDDLESTONE Biddlestone Chapel is a redundant Roman Catholic chapel in Biddlestone, Northumberland, England. The lower parts of the structure, a former pele tower, are designated as a Scheduled Author: Status: Date: 10/03/2020 Page 4 of 10 Monument. This proposal is acceptable. THIRLWALL Thirlwall Castle is a 12th-century castle in Northumberland, England, on the bank of the River Tipalt close to the village of Greenhead and approximately 20 miles (32 km) west of Hexham. It was built in the 12th century, and later strengthened using stones from nearby Hadrian's Wall. This proposal is acceptable. ELSDON Elsdon Castle was a motte-and-bailey fortification built in the late eleventh century to dominate the pre-Conquest administrative centre of Redesdale. By the early fifteenth century a pele tower had been built at Elsdon and this evolved into a substantial Tower House. This proposal is acceptable. HARBOTTLE Harbottle Castle was built by the Umfraville family to assist in securing the border against Scottish expansionism. The castle was attacked on numerous occasions prompting regular upgrades which converted it into a substantial fortress. This proposal is acceptable. TOSSON Tosson Tower and Woodhouses Bastle, The remains of this fortified Pele Tower and Bastle can be found on the south side of Great Tosson. The Tower was built in the 14th or 15th century as protection against the bands of raiders who attacked the borderlands. Spelling or pronunciation might be an issue. e.g. Tow-son or Toss-on? This proposal is acceptable with reservations. The Developers have stated a preference for Berwick and Alnmouth for the two new street names. The proposed street names BERWICK DRIVE and ALNMOUTH CLOSE are acceptable to the Street naming officer and meet the Data Entry Standards. 7. Options and Risk Assessment 7.1 Choose two of the names suggested by the developer in 6.1, at the developer’s invitation. 7.2 Object to any or all of the names. Author: Status: Date: 10/03/2020 Page 5 of 10 7.3 Not select a name. 8. Risk Assessment Risks are Opt 1: The names needs to comply with the Data Entry Conventions – this has been checked by the Business and Information Systems Operations Team and they are all satisfactory in this respect.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

  • North East Inheritance
    North East Inheritance Exhibition Catalogue 21 September – 16 October 2009 Palace Green Library 1 The North East Inheritance Project Durham University Library today holds some 150,000 probate records of 75,000 individuals from County Durham and Northumberland - the old Durham diocese - who lived between the early 16th century and the mid-19th century. With the support of the Heritage Lottery Fund, English Record Collections, Durham University and the Genealogical Society of Utah the North East Inheritance project has catalogued and digitally photographed the Durham diocese probate collection (1526- 1858). The collection will be made freely available online in 2010. Probate is the process of proving a will and of administering the estate of a deceased person. This process is today overseen nationally by the civil courts, but before 1858 probate business in England and Wales was administered in the main by ecclesiastical courts in a system of provincial, diocesan and special jurisdictions. In the natural course of several hundred years of this work substantial probate record collections have accumulated in various registries and archives. Making the Durham records available online and for free now offers to historians and genealogists an unsurpassed opportunity for study and discovery. This exhibition offers a selection of probate records from the Durham collection. These have been chosen to illustrate both the probate process and various typical document types, and also to illustrate a number of research topics for which probate records can provide important evidence. The plan of the exhibition topics is as follows. 1 Introduction p.3 2 Family History p.5 3 Local History p.9 4 Academic Use of Probate p.13 5 Death, Dying and Disposal p.17 6 Health and Medicine p.20 7 Plague p.23 8 The Wreck of the Palermo p.26 9 Trade and Industry p.28 10 Literacy and Education p.31 11 Enemies, Foreign and Domestic p.33 12 Northeasterners Abroad p.36 Will of Peter Trumbel of Gateshead, butcher.

Eighty years of peace and prosperity in the North saw the consolidation of the Norman presence along the border. The Anglo/Norman and Scottish/Norman families formed a single aristocracy, holding estates on both sides of the border and being vassals to both kings.
