  • A Hidden Landscape: Heaton Industry in the Eighteenth Century
    A Hidden Landscape: Heaton industry in the eighteenth century Derek Barker For centuries Heaton had consisted of a pattern of cottages, small farms and fields, some of which pre-dated the late eighteenth century’s Enclosure Act. Around the time of this Act local landowners began to exploit land, previously used solely for agriculture, by promoting extraction industries like quarrying, coal mining, limestone burning, and brick making. The financial rewards of such activities were aided by an improved infrastructure of turnpike roads and canals. After a century or so the profitability of these industrial activities declined in their turn. The expansion of Bradford, with the development of a rail link from Frizinghall in 1875, made sales of land for villa development more desirable. Mine shafts and quarries were filled in and waste tips removed. Heaton today is a quiet residential suburb in north Bradford whose ‘post- industrial landscape’ is so extremely post-industrial as to be virtually hidden. Predictably, much Heaton history was recorded, a century or more ago, by William Cudworth.1 In 2001 the late Stanley King published the only modern study of the township.2 Nobody will ever surpass the pride, love, and knowledge which this author possessed for the place of his birth. He studied very widely, and is reliable in his recording, but the lack of an index and detailed referencing can make the confirmation of individual facts from his necessary account quite difficult. Nonetheless readers may reasonably ask if I can now contribute anything new to these authors’ contributions. The first essay I wrote on local history, ‘Coal Mining in Heaton Woods’, was the result of interest stimulated by a woodland walk with an historian, the late Kath Alred.

It is an independent, voluntary organisation with over 150,000 members and has been described as the most successful consumer group in Europe. CAMRA promotes good-quality real ale and pubs, as well as acting as the consumer’s champion in relation to the UK and European beer and drinks industry. To find out more about CAMRA visit www.camra.org.uk CAMRA aims to list all pubs in the country on www.whatpub.com which is a useful guide when outside your home area, and can be used on smartphones. CAMRA also produces the Good Beer Guide annually which lists the establishments offering the best quality real ale and lists all breweries in the country. What is Real Ale? Real ale is a top fermented beer that, following fermentation, is put into a cask with yeast and some residual fermentable sugars from the malted barley. The beer undergoes a slow secondary fermentation in the cask to produce a gentle carbonation. This leaflet has been produced with help from the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) and the Keighley and Craven branch, in particular. For more information about CAMRA’s activities locally, visit www.keighleyandcravencamra.org.uk This leaflet is for guidance only. Keighley and Craven CAMRA have tried to keep the information as accurate and up to date as possible. The information was correct at the time of going print, please check the details and opening times before visiting specific pubs. @CAMRA_Official facebook.com/campaignforrealale Pg.

  • Wilsden and Harecroft Parish Plan Spring 2010
    Wilsden and Harecroft Parish Plan Spring 2010 Wilsden Parish Council www.wilsdenparishcouncil.gov.uk Wilsden and Harecroft Wilsden is a former mill village lying to the west of Bradford and the south of Bingley and is a part of the Bingley Rural ward of Bradford Metropolitan District Council. The population of the Wilsden Parish Council area, which covers the villages of Wilsden and Harecroft and the surrounding farms and houses, was 4,182 at the 2001 Census. The Parish Council area contained 1944 dwellings in January 2010 compared to the 1768 dwellings in 2001, representing a 10% increase.. Wilsden dates back to Saxon times, flourishing in the nineteenth century when the presence of coal, water and wool transformed an agricultural area into an industrial landscape based on textiles. With the decline of the textile industry Wilsden is now a pleasant dormitory village for people who work elsewhere. Fortunately, the shape of the valley, with a degree of vigilance, has ensured the survival of the character of this independent community, even after a second wave of growth. Wilsden Village Society was formed in 1970 and considered it had a responsibility to act as both a watchdog and to speak out strongly in the interests of the village and its residents. It also set out to provide a new focal point for community activities in the shape of the Village Hall, to revive former social activities and to encourage new ones. In 2004 Wilsden Parish Council was created to represent the interests of this distinct community within Bradford. Since then it has been active on a number of fronts to improve Wilsden as a place to work and live; a refurbished play area and revitalisation of the hanging basket scheme being two visible examples.
