JOWETT, "NEWS" OFFICE. MDCCCLXXIX. To LOED HOUGHTON, D.C.L., ANTIQUARY, POET, PATRIOT, THESE PAGES, ON A SUBJECT OF SPECIAL INTEREST To His LORDSHIP, ARE (BY PERMISSION) RESPECTFULLY INSCRIBED. PREFACE. THIS little handbook is the outcome of a conversation the writer had with a native of Haworth, who expressed an opinion that a history of the township would be as acceptable to the inhabitants as to the numerous visitors. Whether this volume will fully answer the acknowledged requirements, it is not for me to say. I have had the pleasure of gathering the notes, and the task of stringing them together. The gathering of historic data I have always felt to be a pleasure; the task of stringing them together has been almost invariably irksome. In the first place, I have little time, and (I ought to add) in the second, little ability to do more than I have done. " " The critic will ask, Why meddle, then ? Well, I have this hobby, and it is one that will favourably compare with most hobbies. If this does not disarm him I must plead that each one has his sphere, and that local effusions need all the encouragement they can command. I have pleasure in acknowledging kindly services from the Rev. James Whalley, Messrs. A. Holroyd, W. Scruton, and T. Fairbank. COLLEGE HOUSE, IDEL, LEEDS. October 1st, 1879. 545231 CONTENTS.

HAWORTH PAST AND PRESENT. x GENERATION ago it would have been much more necessary *"* to define the latitude and longitude of Haworth than it is at present. Even now it is generally supposed to be a most outlandish, or rather, one should say, inlandish place. Then, Iliiworth was known beyond its immediate district to few be- sides the old race of Methodists who treasured the memory of the incumbent Grimshaw, Wesley's co-worker. Notr, Haworth is on the lips of thousands upon thousands in various parts of the world. What has tended to this change? It is not owing to any sudden growth into a populous manufacturing town; nor owing to some royal personage, or merchant prince a wand over the barren hills nor to the late waving magic ; won- derful development in various branches of industry, else Haworth would have been left behind nor to a comparatively ; great railway system; nor even to a second Grimshaw. No; Haworth, and Stratford, and Abbotsford have their world-wide fame on account of the great thinkers who dwelt there. Haworth the home and burial place of the Brontes : such would he the gazetteer-like reply of the majority of readers if questioned as to what Haworth was. It has been asked if ever anyone was born at Stratford besides Shakespeare ! To any similar query respecting Haworth, we hope these pages will give a somewhat similar answer as has been returned from Stratford. Embosomed in the high moorlands connected with the Pen- nine Range, is the ancient village of Haworth, with the hamlets of Stanbury and Oxcnhope in its township. The ancient chapelry comprises an area of 10,540 acres, stretching from the village of Haworth (four miles south-west of Keighley,) westward to the boundary of Lancashire, nearly half of which is uncultivated moors, heaths and commons. The township is in the parish of Bradford, yet completely isolated from the B 10 Haicorth : rest of that parish, being eleven miles distant from the town. Before the Worth Valley Railway was opened it was a point of some difficulty to decide upon the best means of reaching this ancient village. "Haworth a chapelry in Bradford parish, and Morley wapontake,* West Riding, Yorkshire," is still a somewhat indefinite direction to give a stranger, but formerly Haworth was difficult of access. Now the general direction is "Aim for Keighley, on the Midland Railway, and there change for the Worth Valley Line which has a length of five miles, having stations at Ingrow, Dameins, Oakworth, Haworth, and Oxenhope, the latter (in Haworth township,) being the terminus." Worth Valley derives its name from the Worths just mentioned, and is of modern application. The Worth, if we may so name the stream, is an inconsiderable river, and empties itself into the Aire at Keighley. Owing to the large reservoirs constructed on the moors the quantity of water is now insignificantly small. The two main becks forming the Worth stream meet, in Oxenhope, at Banks' Mill, otherwise called Brooks-meeting Mill, and passing, Dunkirk, Rishworth, Oxeuhope, Bridgehouse, and Ebor (Merrall's) Mills, leaves Haworth, near the Railway Station, for Oakworth. There has been a large increase in the population of Haworth during the present century. In 1801 the chapelry or township contained 8164 souls; in 1811, 3971; in 1821/4668; in 1831, 5835. In 1841 Haworth had 2434, Far Oxenhope 1910, near Oxenhope 1013, and Stanbury 946, giving a total population of 6,303. In 1871 Haworth had 2700, Far Oxenhope 1704, near Oxenhope 808, and Stanbury 754, total 5,966 a decrease of three hundred from 1841, but an increase of nearly three thousand on 1801. Haworth is not mentioned by name in the Domesday Sur- vey, 1086, and no records of previous occupation have come down to us, unless Oakeudeu Stones, a heap of rocks on Stan- *0r hundred, from the custom of swearing fidelity by 'touching the sheriffs weapon.' Past and Present. 11 bury Moor, are the remains of a Druid's altar. They consist of two stones erected perpendicularly. "On Crow Hill, the loftiest eminence of the ancient chapelry of Haworth, and at a height of 1,500 feet above the level of the sea, is a cromlech, an evident Druidicial remain, consisting of one flat stone, weight about six tons, placed horizontally upon two huge upright blocks, now half embedded in the heather." Lewis's Topographical Dictionary. A Roman vicinal way is believed to have near and the name passed Manywell-heights ; Stanburgh (on the road to Colne, the Colony of the Romans,) is a strong indication that the place was held as a fortification by that people. The first direct notice we have is in the record known as Kirkby's Inquest, taken 24th year of Edward 1, 1296, when Godfrey de Haworth, Roger de Manyngham, and Alicia de Bercroft, had four oxgangs in Haworth, where twenty-four carucates made a knight's fee. William de Horton had four oxgangs in Oxeuhope, and William de Clayton held other four oxgangs in Oxenhope. Mr. James supposes that the Manyng- hams and Bercrofts acquired their property at Haworth as heirs of John de Haworth. The rich Abbey of Nostell held lands in Oxenhope at a very early date. Mr. Jennings records in his MSS., British " Museum : Alexander, son of Swane de Clayton, gave to Nostell Priory an oxgang of land in Oxenhope, which Swane fil Lefnath and another held Wulmet Thomas held, oxgang by ; de Thornton, sou of Hugh de Thornton, confirming the grant which Wulmet held, and Richard de Clayton confirming the land held by Swane fil Lefnath." " John fil Allen de Baildon, with Cecily his wife, gave to Nostell all their part of the land which lay between the toft belonging to Nostell, which their son, Alexander, gave to them, on the east side of the river, running from the east side of the village of Oxenhope, and the outer ditch which the Canons of Nostell made by the assent, and of the gift of our fellows.

  • Pool of Site Options with Potential for Residential/Mixed Use & Sustainability Appraisal Consultation Document
    Draft 5/4/16 POOL OF SITE OPTIONS WITH POTENTIAL FOR RESIDENTIAL OR MIXED USE AND SUSTAINABILITY APPRAISAL CONSULTATION DOCUMENT Approved by Craven Spatial Planning Sub- Committee 4th April 2016 1 Pool of Site Options with Potential for Residential and Mixed Use Consultation Document 1. The Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) Process 1.1 A SHLAA is a technical exercise to assess the amount of land that could be made available for housing development. It is part of the evidence base that will inform the local plan making process. Under the SHLAA process, Craven District Council records and assesses land and premises in Craven (outside the national park) that a landowner/developer has demonstrated is available for development. The SHLAA identifies land that may be capable of meeting development needs. Where evidence indicates that more land than is in the SHLAA may be required for new homes, the Council proactively invites more land to be put forward for consideration. 2. Site Allocations Methodology 2.1 As part of identifying sites that are suitable for housing requirements, the Council’s Planning Policy team undertook work between January to March 2016 in a series of stages, so that a pool of sites could be identified as potentially suitable for housing development from the overall list of sites put forward. A template of the Site Allocations Methodology is attached. A Sustainability Appraisal was also carried out on all of the sites put forward. This process of work is described as follows: 2.2 Stage 1: From the selection

  • A Hidden Landscape: Heaton Industry in the Eighteenth Century
    A Hidden Landscape: Heaton industry in the eighteenth century Derek Barker For centuries Heaton had consisted of a pattern of cottages, small farms and fields, some of which pre-dated the late eighteenth century’s Enclosure Act. Around the time of this Act local landowners began to exploit land, previously used solely for agriculture, by promoting extraction industries like quarrying, coal mining, limestone burning, and brick making. The financial rewards of such activities were aided by an improved infrastructure of turnpike roads and canals. After a century or so the profitability of these industrial activities declined in their turn. The expansion of Bradford, with the development of a rail link from Frizinghall in 1875, made sales of land for villa development more desirable. Mine shafts and quarries were filled in and waste tips removed. Heaton today is a quiet residential suburb in north Bradford whose ‘post- industrial landscape’ is so extremely post-industrial as to be virtually hidden. Predictably, much Heaton history was recorded, a century or more ago, by William Cudworth.1 In 2001 the late Stanley King published the only modern study of the township.2 Nobody will ever surpass the pride, love, and knowledge which this author possessed for the place of his birth. He studied very widely, and is reliable in his recording, but the lack of an index and detailed referencing can make the confirmation of individual facts from his necessary account quite difficult. Nonetheless readers may reasonably ask if I can now contribute anything new to these authors’ contributions. The first essay I wrote on local history, ‘Coal Mining in Heaton Woods’, was the result of interest stimulated by a woodland walk with an historian, the late Kath Alred.

  • Jane Eyre As Bildungsroman Michael Giffin 19
    The Brontë Th(under)er VOL 10, 2013 Contents Papers from the talks to the 2013 ABA meetings The Cowan Bridge Controversy Christopher Cooper 1 Jane Eyre as Bildungsroman Michael Giffin 19 Frost in her Heart: Charlotte Brontë, Villette & Melancholia Anne Collett 34 Was Heathcliff Black? Robert Dingley 54 Saving St John Rowan McAuley 71 0 The Cowan Bridge Controversy by CHRISTOPHER COOPER and OTHERS Talk given at the ABA meeting on 2 February 2013 One of the great debates in the world of literary theory is whether it is relevant to know about an author’s life in studying his or her writing or whether the text should stand on its own. At one extreme there are those who emphasise the creativity of the author and argue that a work should only be studied from within. At the other end of the spectrum there are those who maintain that every literary work is to some extent an autobiography. Like the nature/nurture debate in child psychology the answer lies somewhere in the middle. There’s no such thing as pure originality. Every author draws upon their own experiences as the raw materials of their work, but then creates from it something new. These experiences may come from the life of the writer or they may come from stories that they have read or heard. It’s hard to imagine Emily Brontë having many direct experiences along the lines of those in Wuthering Heights. In her case her originality grew out of stories she had read and, perhaps more importantly, heard from the servants.

  • Notes on Stanbury
    D R A F T NOTES ON THE LORDSHIP AND MANOR OF STANBURY Pre-History Evidence of Mesolithic settlement on upland sites in the NW of West Yorkshire along the major watersheds; evidence from Stanbury Moor in the form of three geometric microliths. 1 Bronze Age Stone circle discovered near the site of Walshaw Dean reservoir (SD 967343) on Wadsworth Moor to the SW of Stanbury Moor. The circle, 11 metres in diameter, surrounded a smaller circle, also built of stones. A second circle (SD 96213155) surveyed by the Ordnance Survey in 1962 thought to be a hut circle rather than a ceremonial circle. 2 Numerous additional National Monuments are also situated within the boundaries of the Manor of Stanbury. Anglo-Saxon Place-name: Old English Stan Burh “Stone Fortification”. Editor notes (1961) that “no trace of the fortification remains”. 3 “It is extremely difficult to isolate specific Mercian place-names. Even those containing definite Mercian forms, such as the inflected bury, rather than the uninflected borough from the OE burh (e.g. Stanbury, Dewsbury) may not go back to the 7th century, but may simply be the result of Mercian elements in the local dialect. Moreover, even if a place bears a probable Mercian name, this cannot be taken to indicate that it was actually occupied by Mercians.. It is, therefore, impossible at present to isolate specific Mercian settlements, but the possibility of their existence must be borne in mind in the course of future archaeological work in the county, especially in Agbrigg and Morley wapentakes, where the strongest evidence for Mercian influence is to be found in the place-names.” 4 Manor of Bradford held by Gamel.
