Wakefield, West Riding: the Economy of a Yorkshire Manor
WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR By BRUCE A. PAVEY Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1991 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1993 OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR Thesis Approved: ~ ThesiSAd er £~ A J?t~ -Dean of the Graduate College ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to to the faculty and staff of the Department of History, and especially the members of my advisory committee for the generous sharing of their time and knowledge during my stay at O.S.U. I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels. -
The West Riding in the Late Seventeenth Century by David Hey
Introduction: The West Riding in the Late Seventeenth Century by David Hey Not only was Yorkshire by far the largest of the ancient counties of England, at 1,709,307 acres, but the West Riding alone exceeded in size every other county except Lincolnshire. The word riding is derived from the late Old English ‘thrithing’ or ‘thriding’, itself adapted from an Old Norse loan word, meaning a third part. Wapentake, similarly derived, was the equivalent of the Anglo-Saxon hundred, and came from the symbolic flourishing of weapons to signify agreement when decisions were made in open-air assemblies at convenient sites, such as a river crossing or by a stone cross.1 The wapentakes continued to see to the levying of taxes, the raising of the militia and the maintenance of law and order and did not finally disappear until the reorganisation of local government in 1974. The West Riding was divided into eleven wapentakes: Ainsty, Agbrigg, Barkston Ash, Claro, Ewcross, Morley, Osgoldcross, Skyrack, Staincliffe, Staincross and Strafforth. The Ainsty, bounded by the rivers Ure, Ouse and Wharfe, had been annexed by Henry VI (d. 1471), king of England, to the city of York, as the county of the city, which was independent of all three ridings, but it was still considered to be a West Riding wapentake. The wapentakes were divided into townships, the vills of medieval documents. In the eastern parts of the West Riding many townships were coterminous with the ecclesiastical parishes and were referred to as parishes in the hearth tax returns, but the large moorland parishes in the west contained numerous townships. -

A History of the Holme Valley Masonic Lodge No.652
THE HOLME VALLEY LODGE No.652 Its foundation and the history of the first one hundred and sixty years ‘By Industry We Prosper’ By PETER BERRY Past Provincial Grand Registrar Yorkshire West Riding PREFACE In 2007 I was asked to prepare a short history of the Druids’ Hall for inclusion in the one hundred and fiftieth year celebrations programme. Whilst preparing this much of the early history of The Holme Valley Lodge began to unfold, and as this had not been previously documented I felt that it should be recorded before much more of it became forgotten. The minutes of the Lodge meetings held between its commencement in 1855 and 1878 were unfortunately lost many years ago but it was nevertheless possible to piece together the early history from the documents in our possession and also reference to the newspapers printed in the mid-nineteenth century. Whilst there are no records of the first twenty years of the Lodge’s existence much information was gleaned from the newspapers of that time, particularly relating to its founding members who are very well documented. I would like to thank the Huddersfield Examiner for kindly allowing me to use several of their reports of events that occurred during that period. Many interesting facts have come to light during my researches, many previously unknown both to myself and to the members of The Holme Valley Lodge. This history, which has taken over two years to compile, became to a great extent a labour of love and one which I have thoroughly enjoyed pursuing. Whilst certain events recorded may not appear at first sight to relate to The Holme Valley Lodge they do nevertheless bear some relevance to the decisions that were made by its members at that time and give an insight to the events which have taken place in the Holme Valley and beyond over the last one hundred and fifty years and which have in some way involved the members of The Holme Valley Lodge. -

Report of the Trustees and Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2015 One Community Foundation Limited
REGISTERED COMPANY NUMBER: 07100811 (England and Wales) REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER: 1135258 ONE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LIMITED REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES AND UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2015 ONE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LIMITED CONTENTS OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2015 Page Chairman's Report 1 Report of the Trustees 2 to 6 Independent Examiner's Report 7 Statement of Financial Activities 8 to 9 Balance Sheet 10 to 11 Notes to the Financial Statements 12 to 22 ONE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LIMITED CHAIRMAN'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2015 I am delighted to be able to present the annual report and accounts of One Community. In May we celebrated our 5th birthday - so we are still a very new addition to the national Community Foundation family. But like all five year olds, we are growing fast. Since our last annual report the endowment funds that we manage have more than doubled from around £650,000 to over £1.3m. Yet we need to keep this forward momentum, because the community groups that we can support now have fewer available sources of funding than in the past. If we look across the country at other longer-established foundations we can see that the norm for a foundation with our population base would be around £4m, so we still have some growing to do! And, of course, we are setting our sights on doing better than the average. None of this would be possible without our donors. All of our endowment funds start with private donation, gifts which have then often enabled us to claim matched funding from the Government; without the generosity of those private donors, we would have nothing with which to support community activity.
