  • Newsletter No. 74 Autumn 2008 Editorial
    NEWSLETTER NO. 74 AUTUMN 2008 EDITORIAL Welcome to the latest Newsletter; I hope you have had an enjoyable summer in spite of the dreadful weather, Due to a clash of dates I was unable to attend this year’s AIA Conference which was held in Wiltshire and I look forward to reading the report which will appear in Industrial Archaeology News. I am also looking forward to the forthcoming 2008-2009 Lecture Programme; full details are given on the separate sheet, meeting as usual on Saturday mornings at Claremont. In the past the Section has considered whether midweek evening meetings or Saturday afternoons would attract more members to join and attend but the general view from those who have expressed it, is that Saturday mornings are preferred. However please note that the 2009 AGM will be starting earlier at 10.30am. This is because we will have another local walk in the afternoon starting at 2pm and starting the AGM half an hour earlier gives a little more time for members’ contributions and lunch. I am sure that you will agree with me that our Lecture Secretary, Jane Ellis, has yet again organised an interesting and varied programme and I hope many of you will be able to attend at least a few lectures during the season. Robert Vickers will also lead a walk around Huddersfield on Sunday 10 May 2009, meeting at the Railway Station at 11am with a pub lunch. Let’s hope there is better weather for this than his walk around Bradford, which is reported on later in the Newsletter.

  • The Industrial Archaeology of West Yorkshire
    The Industrial Archaeology of West Yorkshire Introduction: The impact of the Industrial Revolution came comparatively late to the West Yorkshire region. The seminal breakthroughs in technology that were made in a variety of industries (e.g. coal mining, textile, pottery, brick, and steam engine manufacture) during the 17th and 18th centuries, and the major production centres that initially grew up on the back of these innovations, were largely located elsewhere in the country. What distinguishes Yorkshire is the rate and density at which industry developed in the region from the end of the 18th century. This has been attributed to a wide variety of factors, including good natural resources and the character of the inhabitants! The portion of the West Riding north and west of Wakefield had become one of most heavily industrialised areas in the Britain by the end of the 19th century. It was also one of the most varied - there were some regional specialities, but at one time or another Yorkshire manufacturers supplied everything from artificial manure to motorcars. A list of local products for the 1890s would run into hundreds of items. Textile Manufacturing: The most prominent industry in the region has always been textile manufacture. There was a long tradition in the upland areas of the county of cloth production as a home-based industry, which supplemented farming. The scale of domestic production could hardly be considered negligible - the industry in Calderdale was after all so large that in 1779 it produced the Piece Hall in Halifax as an exchange centre and market. However, the beginnings of the factory system, and the birth of modern textile mills, dates to the introduction of mass-production techniques for carding and spinning cotton.

  • Royal Newcastle Infirmary
    Accounting for Healthcare in the Newcastle Infirmary During the 19th Century Andrew John Holden Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Newcastle University Business School June 2018 i To Gill, Olly and Emily for all your support, encouragement and love ii Newcastle Infirmary c 1815 Figure 0.1 – The Newcastle Infirmary (Source: Welcome Library Images) To serve the needy, sick and lame, This splendid shilling freely came, From one who knows the want of wealth, And what is more - the want of health. Beneath this roof may thousands find, The greatest blessings of mankind; And hence may millions learn to know, That to do good’s our end below; That Vice and Folly must decay Ere we can reach eternal day! (Anon. Above poem written on a note which enclosed a shilling left in a poor box 1752 – from Hume 1951, p. 5) iii Abstract Accounting played a critical role in the management of the Newcastle Infirmary during the 19th century. In a class-based society, the poor relied upon the generosity of the wealthy for their healthcare at a time when poverty itself was seen as a sin, an act against God. These wealthy donors established and maintained hospitals, such as the Newcastle Infirmary, and were responsible for the governance, management and admission of patients. Their aim was to be seen to use resources efficiently and to treat the “deserving poor” to restore them to productive members of society. Throughout the century new buildings, medical advances and increasingly highly specialised staff had to be financed to cope with increasing demand.

He married and had eight children and was a converted Wesleyan Methodist. He manufactured and designed locomotives and other engines and worked with other significant railway individuals of the time, for example George and Robert Stephenson. He was responsible for manufacturing the first locomotive for Russia and British North America. It has been debated historically up to the present day whether Hackworth gained enough recognition for his work. Proponents of Hackworth have suggested that he invented of the ‘blast pipe’ which led to the success of locomotives over other forms of rail transport. His sons other relatives went on to be engineers. His eldest son, John Wesley Hackworth did a lot of work to promote his fathers memory after he died. His daughters, friends, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and ancestors to this day have worked to try and gain him a prominent place in railway history.

  • The Railway Revolution
    Transactions – October 2019 North of England Institute of Mining and Mechanical Engineers Founded 1852 Royal Charter 1876 The Railway Revolution Les Turnbull BA MEd MNEIMME A joint lecture between NEIMME and the Stephenson Locomotive Society Les Turnbull is a modern historian who has worked as a schoolmaster, university lecturer and senior educational advisor. He has served as a volunteer and trustee at the Institute over the last two decades and is the author of several books on mining history. His latest book ‘The Railway Revolution’[1] has made a study of the transfer from road to rail transport in the seventeenth century which was the first railway revolution. Drawing primarily upon sources from the archives of the Institute and those of the Duke of Northumberland, he argues for a new interpretation of railway history and demonstrates that the first railway revolution occurred many years before the George and Robert Stephenson came on the scene; thereby revaluating what is usually regarded as the railway revolution of early Victorian times as in fact the second revolution. Copies of the book can be obtained from the Institute bookshop at: mininginstitute.org.uk The opening of the Stockton and Darlington Railway in 1825, followed by the building of the first inter-city railways between Liverpool and Manchester and London and Birmingham, earned George Stephenson the title of ‘father of the railways’. These events formed the basis of the traditional view that the railway revolution occurred in the mid nineteenth century which is embodied in the national curriculum of our schools and the national psyche of the country at large.

  • Civilisation Module Transportation Revolution Innovations in Transportation 1. Turnpike Trusts at the End of the 17Th Century, B
    Civilisation Module Second Year/ LMD [email protected] Transportation Revolution Innovations in Transportation 1. Turnpike Trusts At the end of the 17th century, British roads were in a terrible state. The rapid increase in industrial production between 1700 and 1750 resulted in the need for an improved transport system. Whenever possible, factory owners used Britain's network of rivers to transport their goods. However, their customers did not always live by rivers and they therefore had to make use of Britain's roads. This was a major problem for mine-owners as transport costs were crucial. If they could not get their coal to market at a competitive price, they were out of business. The appalling state of Britain's roads created serious problems for factory owners. Bad weather often made roads impassable. When fresh supplies of raw materials failed to arrive, factory production came to a cut. Flooded roads also meant that factory owners had difficulty transporting the finished goods to their customers. Merchants and factory owners appealed to Parliament for help. After much discussion it was decided that this problem would only be solved if road building could be made profitable. Groups of businessmen were therefore encouraged to form companies called Turnpike Trusts. These companies were granted permission by Parliament to build and maintain roads. So that they could make a profit from this venture, companies were allowed to charge people to use these roads. Between 1700 and 1750 Parliament established over 400 of these Turnpike companies. The quality of the roads built by these companies varied enormously.

    Report author: Lee Arnell, Mary Stockton Tel: x75408 Report of Director of City Development Report to Executive Board Date: 5th March 2014 Subject: - Design and Cost Report for Holbeck Urban Village Land Assembly Proposals Capital Scheme Number: 32055/000/000 Are specific electoral Wards affected? Yes No If relevant, name(s) of Ward(s): City and Hunslet; Beeston and Holbeck Are there implications for equality and diversity and cohesion and Yes No integration? Is the decision eligible for Call-In? Yes No Does the report contain confidential or exempt information? Yes No If relevant, Access to Information Procedure Rule number: 10.4 (3) Appendix number: 1 Summary of main issues 1. At its meeting of the 14 th February, Executive Board gave approval for the disposal of the Council owned Engine House as part of an exercise to secure new development in the short term at the primarily HCA owned Tower Works site. It is anticipated that this will help to kick start regeneration in Holbeck Urban Village, which has stalled in recent years due to economic conditions. 2. The report outlined that the Council and the HCA also own other assets in Holbeck Urban Village and that there were on-going discussions between the Council and the HCA about how these assets could be best used to support regeneration in the area. It was indicated that a future paper would be presented with recommendations about these assets. These discussions have focussed on the Council owned Bath Road site, the HCA owned Leodis Court and the lease that the HCA have at the Round Foundry Media Centre (see plan 1).
