Prof. Keith Laybourn has been a patient and inspiring motivator throughout and his advice, expertise and support were all instrumental in helping me to complete this thesis. To him, I am truly grateful. My father Christopher Moriarty‟s experiences in the tenements are referred to within the thesis. He was a valuable sounding board who was always keen to offer advice and suggestions on a way forward. Thanks Dad. My mother Noreen gave me some insight on rural Irish traditions based on her own background. Thanks Mom for that. My family; brothers Evan and Cian, sisters Clodagh, Rachel and Aoife and their families have offered me all kinds of support. Thanks to you all. Some friends like Liz, Maureen and Teresa have all supported me in various capacities throughout and I cannot thank them enough. The efforts of the staff at Huddersfield Archives and Local Library were gratefully received. They suggested some valuable sources that provided some interesting insights on the plight of the Irish. Similarly, the staff at Leeds Local Library was also helpful. At St. Patrick‟s, Huddersfield, Fr. Ian Smith and his predecessor Fr. Euguene McGillycuddy were all very willing to allow me access to their church and their records. Mr. Alistair Cheetham gave me a personal tour of the church and offered advice on the parish records. Mr Robert Finnigan, the Diocesan Archivist was always very helpful with the Dicoesan Records. Much thanks to you all. My husband Robert has been my assistant throughout and I would have been lost without his computer expertise. I cannot thank him enough for all his practical help, emotional support and patience. Lily, sorry for not being able to play all the time but we will make up for it and Mommy will not be at the computer constantly. Lastly, it is my fellow countrymen and women who are to be remembered. Their experiences at times were harsh and I hope I have presented a true picture of what life was truly like for them. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS NAME OF CHAPTER PAGE NUMBERS Title Page 1 Copyright 2 Dedication 3 Acknowledgements 4 Table of Contents 5 List of Tables 6 Introduction 9 Chapter 1: 30 LIFE FOR THE IRISH IN HUDDERSFIELD Chapter 2: 65 DID THE IRISH INTEGRATE WITH THE HOST POPULATION?

  • Editorial Comment
    Hampshire Horsewatch Bulletin (incorporating information from around the country) 1 March 2010 Editorial Comment The info below has been sent in by various contributors Road Sense Horse riders have a right to use the roads as a means of safe and enjoyable travel, but should also share a responsibility to understand the needs and problems of other road users. Riders would prefer not to use the roads, but often have little choice because it is their only way to bridleways and other facilities off the road. Drivers take care! It may not always be obvious to vehicle drivers why horses and riders are doing what they are doing, although there is normally a good reason. Remember the following points, particularly whilst driving on roads where you are more likely to meet horses, such as country lanes. • Take care on approaching blind bends – never go so fast that you cannot easily stop, there could be a horse and rider round the next one. • Drive slowly past horses - give them plenty of room and be prepared to stop. • Do not scare animals by using your horn or revving your engine. • Look out for horse riders’ signals. • Take extra care with child and other inexperienced riders and horses. • Always treat horses as a potential hazard and expect the unexpected. When you see horses on the road – always slow down! Riders – look after yourselves! Sometimes horse riders don’t do themselves any favours on the road and endanger other road users, their horses and their own safety by not taking a few simple precautions or following a few simple rules: • Always wear a riding helmet with the strap done up – remember it is compulsory for under 14’s.
