  • Studies in the Holocene Vegetation History Of
    STUDIES IN THE HOLOCENE VEGETATION HISTORY OF WENSLEYDALE by ANNE HONEYMAN Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Ph.D. The University of Leeds July 1985 School of Geography i SUMMARY Total and arboreal pollen diagrams have been prepared for three blanket bog sites and one valley bog in the Wensleydale area of the Yorkshire Dales. Local pollen assemblage zones have been defined for each site using numerical methods, and these have been correlated to give regional pollen assemblage zones. A computer program has been developed to calculate and plot the palynological data, and an absolute chronology has been established for the pollen diagrams from a series of twenty radiocarbon dates. Detailed humification profiles have been produced for each site to assist in the interpretation of the pollen records, and chemical analyses have also been carried out for the valley bog site. The regional zones have been used as the basis for a discussion of the Holocene vegetation history of Wensleydale. The palynological, radiocarbon, humification, chemical and archaeological/historical evidence is drawn together to provide a comprehensive study of the vegetation changes which have occurred over the approximately 9,000 years covered by the pollen records. By adopting a holistic approach to interpretation, it has been shown that man has been an important influence on the landscape of Wensleydale throughout this entire period. Possible anthropogenic causes are put forward for a number of vegetation changes previously assumed to be of climatic origin. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank first of all my supervisor, Or. R. T. Smith, for all his help and advice throughout my period of research.

The reception the riders will receive when they compete in Yorkshire is going to be truly inspiring – every village will be awash with spectators, flags, banners and bunting. The county – and Britain as a whole – is ready to embrace the Championships. A range of challenging yet spectacular routes has been designed to bring the event to as wide a section of the Yorkshire population as possible. Harrogate is the main town for all competitions during the 8-day Championships, as well as for the para-cycling races preceding the Championships. Start towns have been selected in Bradford, Doncaster, Leeds, Northallerton, Richmond and Ripon resulting in an outstanding race programme. Yorkshire’s journey to become a world-class cycling destination began in 2014 when the county hosted the start of the Tour de France, which attracted four million roadside spectators over the opening two stages. In 2015 the Tour de Yorkshire was created as a direct legacy of the Tour de France. The 2018 edition saw the men’s race increase from three to four days and the Asda Tour de Yorkshire Women’s Race double in size from one day to two.

  • The Quakers of Countersett and Their Legacy
    157 THE QUAKERS OF COUNTERSETT AND THEIR LEGACY Ella Pontefract, in her enchanting account of Wensleydale in North Yorkshire, describes how its river, the Ure, begins as a tumbling stream among the Pennine uplands that adjoin the Westmorland border. At first the valley follows a narrow line of cultivation, and the moor creeps down all round it: "as if it would snatch it back to itself".1 Then, as it widens, the river winds its way through the green meadows and pastures of the upper dale. Further down the valley, it plunges tumultuously over the falls at Aysgarth and then moves on more placidly to the fertile lands of the Vale of York. The valley has always been socially divided. The lower dale, feudal to this day, is the preserve of landowners, some noble, others wealthy gentry, whose extensive possessions are held by leasehold farmers paying rent to their landlords. The upper dale is different. There, the steep hillsides in many tributary dales do not make for easy farming. The land, much of which belonged to the Abbey of Jervaulx, was sold off after the dissolution of the monasteries and during the seventeenth century individual yeoman farmers were able to buy their own freehold. These men, descendants of the Norsemen who colonised those upper dales before the Normans came, were individualists. The names of their villages and their dialect recall to this day the old Norse speech. They have always retained a sturdy independence and they do not tip their caps to the gentry. Many of their solidly built stone farmhouses, often with a seventeenth century datestone, remain to reflect the rugged personalities of their builders.
