Electronic Report Electronic Report 52 Bank Parade Burnley BB11 1TS Phone 01282 414649 / 458410 Our Ref: Talbot St/BB10 2HW/2017 Date: 19 July 2017 Steven Hartley Hartley Planning and Development Associates Swallow Barn Lower Chapel Hill Hurst Lane Rawtenstall BB4 8TB WALSHAW MILL, TALBOT STREET, BRIERCLIFFE, BURNLEY. BB10 2HW PRELIMINARY RISK ASSESSMENT (DESK STUDY) INTRODUCTION A residential development is proposed. The objective is to carry out a desk study, supplemented with a walk over survey, to form a Preliminary Risk Assessment to consider contamination, landfill gas and geotechnical issues. SITE DESCRIPTION The site is an almost rectangular plot, about 137 by 126 metres, located to the southwest of Talbot Street in Briercliffe and at OS Grid Reference 386492, 434915. A limited inspection on 4/7/17 by Mr S Gimeno (Geotechnician) showed the site to comprise a former cotton mill, now used for pharmaceutical manufacture, with yards to the east and south and a grass field to the west. The main building was a north light weaving shed and joined to the south was stone built with extensions and alterations. To the west was a portacabin style hard roof office probably built of timber. Just north was a fenced compound for aircon condenser units. In the southeast corner was a stone built electrical substation. In the northeast corner was a gas regulator box/building. An oil drum with hand pump was seen in the southeast corner. This is a residential area with houses on all sides, including gardens to the north, southeast and southwest. The area slopes down to the southwest at about 1 in 25. 2 TREES The main trees were a screening line of leylandii conifers running along the south boundary. Elsewhere there were occasional trees, five fronting Talbot Street in the northeast. This is not an accurate arboricultural survey. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT It is proposed to build fifty-two houses. These comprise thirty-six three bedroom townhouses, fourteen three bedroom semi-detached houses and two four bedroom detached houses all with gardens. There will be a landscape feature in the centre of the site, and a public open space to the east. LEGAL/COPYRIGHT Material may be included in this report from Ordnance Survey (Licence No. AL100031635), Landmark, Environment Agency, Coal Authority and others. It may be copyright and the usual restrictions apply. This report can only be relied upon if the invoice has been paid promptly and in full. This report may be signed by an individual, but only on behalf of Worms Eye Limited. NOT INCLUDED IN THE REPORT Arboricultural Survey. Asbestos Survey Invasive Plant Survey (Japanese Knotweed etc). Mining Risk Assessment. River/Tidal Flood Risk Assessment. Surface Water Flooding. Underground Services Survey. General comments may be made with regards to the above where there are obvious features seen on site, in the data review or where they are applicable to the environmental and geotechnical risk assessment. These general comments do not constitute a detailed risk assessment. 3 DATA SOURCES The following data sources have been viewed in compiling this report. BGS, Geology Map, 1:50000 scale, Solid and Drift Edition Coal Authority Interactive Mapping Landmark Envirocheck Report, 4/7/17 Ordnance Survey, Historical Maps, 1:10000 and 1:2500 scale ENVIRONMENTAL DATA A Landmark Envirocheck report has been obtained for the site and geological maps have been reviewed, the following is a summary of the combined data. The Envirocheck report indicated none of the following within 250 metres: Contaminated land register entries Substantiated pollution incidents Source protection zones Radioactive sites Areas of flooding from rivers Hazardous substances sites Fuel stations Sensitive Lane Uses (other than nitrate vulnerable zone) Geology of Site The geological map indicates that the underlying solid rocks are sandstone of the Dandy Rock horizon beneath the east of the site and mudstone beneath the west, these in the Pennine lower coal measures formation and dipping to the west. Surface drift is shown as glacial till (boulder clay) of unspecified thickness. Natural subsidence hazards are shown as very low to no hazard. Mining The Coal Authority Interactive Mapping shows: West and southeast of the site is in a Development High Risk Area. Coal seam outcrops northwest to southeast on site and dips to the west. West of the site is underlain by probable shallow workings. Two mine shafts are shown about 10 metres southeast, with other shafts further afield. As a minimum a Coal Mining Risk Assessment report is required. 4 5 Surface Water (Hydrology) The nearest surface water feature is a stream 174 metres south, entering the River Don about 600 metres south. The nearest discharge consents are: 235 metres east, cooling water to freshwater stream/river, in 2002 *. There are two pollution incidents to surface water listed within 250 metres: 215 metres north, minor incident, other sewage to unknown receiver in 1995 * 227 metres southeast, minor incident, unknown pollutant to unknown receiver in 1993 *. There are the following surface water abstraction points nearby: 225 metres east, abstraction for other industrial/commercial/public services: boiler feed. 225 metres east, abstraction for other industrial/commercial/public services: general use. The area slopes down to the south and the flow of surface water is expected to be in this direction. * Not relevant due to distance/severity/significance Groundwater Flooding The site is shown to be in an area with: Limited potential for groundwater flooding to occur (east of site). Potential for groundwater flooding to occur at the surface (south corner). Potential for groundwater flooding of property situated below ground level (northwest of site). Flooding From Rivers and Seas The site is shown to be clear of flooding from rivers and seas. Surface Water Flooding The northeast boundary is shown to be at risk of 1 in 30 year surface water flooding, with a wider area on the northeast side at risk of 1 in 100 year flooding. Groundwater (Hydrogeology) The solid rocks under the site are indicated as a Secondary A aquifer. Superficial (drift) deposits are classed as an Undifferentiated aquifer. Groundwater flow is likely to follow the topography and move to the south. 6 Landfill Sites There are two historical landfill sites listed within 250 metres as follows: 123 metres northeast, deposited waste included inert waste, last input date not supplied. 163 metres east, deposited waste, included inert waste, last input date not supplied. Filled Ground Within 250 metres of the site there are the following suspected filled features: On the east of site. 192 metres east. 199 metres northeast. 240 metres east. 244 metres northeast. Radon The site is in a lower probability radon area as less than 1% of homes in the area are above the radon action level. Radon protection measures are not required.

  • Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’S Cotton Frontier C.1890-1950
    Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’s Cotton Frontier c.1890-1950 By Jack Southern A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of a PhD, at the University of Central Lancashire April 2016 1 i University of Central Lancashire STUDENT DECLARATION FORM I declare that whilst being registered as a candidate of the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another aware of the University or other academic or professional institution. I declare that no material contained in this thesis has been used for any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work. Signature of Candidate ________________________________________________ Type of Award: Doctor of Philosophy School: Education and Social Sciences ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the evolution of identity and community within north east Lancashire during a period when the area gained regional and national prominence through its involvement in the cotton industry. It examines how the overarching shared culture of the area could evolve under altering economic conditions, and how expressions of identity fluctuated through the cotton industry’s peak and decline. In effect, it explores how local populations could shape and be shaped by the cotton industry. By focusing on a compact area with diverse settlements, this thesis contributes to the wider understanding of what it was to live in an area dominated by a single industry. The complex legacy that the cotton industry’s decline has had is explored through a range of settlement types, from large town to small village.

    [email protected] http://ttusher.orgfree.com Textile manufacturing terminology The manufacture of textiles is one of the oldest of human technologies. In order to make textiles, the first requirement is a source of fibre from which a yarn can be made, primarily by spinning. (Both fibre and fiber are used in this article.) The yarn is processed by knitting or weaving, which turns yarn into cloth. The machine used for weaving is the loom. For decoration, the process of colouring yarn or the finished material is dyeing. For more information of the various steps, see textile manufacturing. A__________________________________________________________________ Absorbency A measure of how much water a fabric can absorb. Acetate Acetate is a synthetic fiber. Acrylic Acrylic fiber is a synthetic polymer fiber that contains at least 85% acrylonitrile. Aida cloth Aida cloth is a coarse open-weave fabric traditionally used for cross-stitch. Alnage Alnage is the official supervision of the shape and quality of manufactured woolen cloth. Alpaca Alpaca is a name given to two distinct things. It is primarily a term applied to the wool of the Peruvian alpaca. It is, however, more broadly applied to a style of fabric originally made from alpaca fiber but now frequently made from a similar type of fiber. Angora Angora refers to the hair of either the Angora goat or the Angora rabbit, or the fabric made from Angora rabbit; see Angora wool. (Fabric made from angora goat is mohair.) Angora wool Angora wool is a generic term for either Mohair if the hair is from an Angora goat or Angora fabric if the hair is from an Angora rabbit.

  • Dark Age Tablet Weaving
    Dark Age Tablet Weaving for Viking and Anglo-Saxon re-enactors 1 Introduction Tablet weaving, also known as card weaving, is a method of using square tablets with holes in the corners to weave narrow decorative bands made of wool, linen or silk threads. Tablet weaving was widespread in Europe and Britain in the first millenium AD and is an excellent craft for historical re-enactors as it is portable, interesting, little known nowadays and you can make beautiful bands to decorate your outfit. However, creating replicas of Dark Age bands is challenging. Many of the surviving historic bands are difficult to weave, and so most re-enactors either buy in tablet-weaving or weave simplified bands, and may use patterns and techniques that aren't appropriate to the Dark Ages. The aim of this document is to describe the characteristic styles and methods of Dark Age tablet- weaving. There is also information about materials, equipment and tablet-weaving techniques. Perhaps the most striking theme of the historic bands is inventiveness, and the advantage of the historic techniques is that they allow the weaver to create a far wider range of patterns than the modern methods, which were mostly developed in the 19th and 20th centuries as tablet-weaving was 'rediscovered' in Europe1. This document isn't exhaustive, and I recommend that the interested reader explore further patterns and techniques. There are many good patterns available online. Just remember, as I once read on the internet, the first instruction in tablet weaving is “remove the cat”. Please contact me with any comments or corrections.
