    GRADE 2 LISTED FORMER FARMHOUSE, STONE BARNS AND PADDOCK WITHIN THE YORKSHIRE DALES NATIONAL PARK swale farmhouse, ellerton abbey, richmond, north yorkshire, dl11 6an GRADE 2 LISTED FORMER FARMHOUSE, STONE BARNS AND PADDOCK WITHIN THE YORKSHIRE DALES NATIONAL PARK swale farmhouse, ellerton abbey, richmond, north yorkshire, dl11 6an Rare development opportunity in a soughtafter location. Situation Swale Farmhouse is well situated, lying within a soughtafter and accessible location occupying an elevated position within Swaledale. The property is approached from a private driveway to the south side of the B6260 Richmond to Reeth Road approximately 8 miles from Richmond, 3 miles from Reeth and 2 miles from Grinton. Description Swale Farmhouse is a Grade 2 listed traditional stone built farmhouse under a stone slate roof believed to date from the 18th Century with later 19th Century alterations. Formerly divided into two properties with outbuildings at both ends the property now offers considerable potential for conversion and renovation to provide a beautifully situated family home or possibly multiple dwellings (subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents). The house itself while needing full modernisation benefits from well-proportioned rooms. The house extends to just over 3,000 sq ft as shown on the floorplan with a total footprint of over 7,000 sq ft including the adjoining buildings. The property has the benefit of an adjoining grass paddock ideal for use as a pony paddock or for general enjoyment. There are lovely views from the property up and down Swaledale and opportunities such as this are extremely rare. General Information Rights of Way, Easements & Wayleaves The property is sold subject to, and with the benefit of all existing wayleaves, easements and rights of way, public and private whether specifically mentioned or not.

  • Swaledale Museum Newsletter 29 Spring 2020 Print
    Newsletter No.29 Spring 2020 A message from the Curator As I write this, in mid-April, I am hoping that we will be able to resume ‘service as normal’ in the Museum this season. However any forward planning has become an almost impossible task as the situation changes from week to week. Ever the optimist I have decided to assume that we will be re-opening on 21st May and be running our programme of events. However, checking ahead will be paramount as we adapt to the latest guidelines. One of the benefits of the lockdown has been longer and more considered messages between Lidar image of Reeth - thanks to Stephen Eastmead acquaintances. I have, for example, been receiving regular pages from an ‘electronic diary of the plague marginalia in much loved and favourite books. months’ from an elderly friend living in a small hamlet. What sort of evidential trail are we leaving behind He wonderfully captures how small things have acquired us now, that will reflect what the Dale, the country greater meaning and value. I have been reading Jared and the world has gone through? How will curators Diamond’s The World Until Yesterday (2012) in which in the future present these episodes to the public? he compares how traditional and modern societies cope What projects are already in the making to tell the story of how we all reacted and coped? with life, looking at peace and danger, youth and age, language and health. He asks what can we learn from A severe blow to us all has been the loss of Janet ‘traditional’ societies? This spurred me to think about Bishop, Chairman of the Friends of the Museum.

  • BR Coast to Coast SG H .Pub
    Active Journeys Britain Self-Guided Hiking Tour Wainright’s Walk Coast to Coast Hike This classic route was originated and described by A. Wainwright; author of a well-known series of hiking guidebooks on the Lake District. The walk starts on the Irish Sea coast of Cumbria near the huge red sandstone cliffs of St. Bees Head. You cross three National Parks before reaching the North Sea at the pretty fishing village of Robin Hood's Bay on the rocky coastline of the North York Moors. The first few days take you over some of the most rugged, beautiful terrain of the Lake District, by way of the idyllic Lakeland valleys of Borrowdale, Grasmere (poet William Wordsworth lived here) and Patterdale, close to Ullswater Lake. You pass Helvellyn, Eng- land's most popular mountain, and the mountain oddly named High Street, along which Roman Legions marched on their way to Hadrian's Wall. After leaving the Lake District you cross a gentler landscape round Shap and Orton. Be- yond the quaint market town of Kirkby Stephen you enter the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Two days are then spent walking through the long valley of Swaledale, with its dry stone walls and unspoiled villages. You reach the historic town of Richmond with its cob- bled streets, market square and famous castle perched above the River Swale. Beyond the Vale of York, elevation rises onto the expansive heather moorlands of the North York Moors, a region of long vistas and easy walking. After crossing the narrow wooded valley of Eskdale you reach the dramatic cliffs of the North Sea Coast.

    Lawn House, Low Row, Reeth, Richmond .co.uk Therightmove UK’s number one property website Berwick upon Tweed • Carlisle • Galashiels • Keswick • Windermere Lawn House, Low Row, Reeth, Richmond, North Yorkshire, DL11 6NQ Brief Résumé A Grade II listed 4 bedroomed period property standing in delightful gardens and grounds of approximately 2.8 acres, together with a cottage comprising 2 flats and a large detached garage. Magnificent picturesque Swaledale setting within the National Park, including river frontage. Description Lawn House occupies an outstanding position on the south bank of the River Swale, within the heart of Swaledale, an area famous for its sheep of that name and its natural beauty. Being one of the most northerly dales within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Swaledale is less impacted by tourism and retains all of its rural tranquillity and charm, with unspoilt picture postcard villages, iconic stone cottages, boundary walls and field barns, interspersed by the fast flowing clear waters of becks and streams which feed the River Swale. The area used to support a century’s old lead mining industry which began with the Romans, but there is little sign of that now amongst the lattice of green pastures within the valleys and the surrounding high heather clad moorlands which constitute some of the best grouse moors in the United Kingdom. Lawn House occupies an elevated position above the River Swale with levelled and terraced gardens and grounds around the house, and includes 2 further fields, a fast flowing beck through the grounds together with river frontage to the River Swale. This handsome property is constructed in the local mellow stone and is arranged over 3 floors.

  • NHS Hambleton, Richmondshire and Whitby Clinical Commissioning Group
    NHS Hambleton, Richmondshire and Whitby Clinical Commissioning Group Annual Report 2019-2020 1 Introduction Welcome from Amanda Bloor, Accountable Officer North Yorkshire Clinical Commissioning Groups (NHS Hambleton Richmondshire and Whitby, NHS Harrogate and Rural District, NHS Scarborough Ryedale) Welcome to our annual report for the year which ends on 31 March 2020. This report highlights the work we have been doing this year to drive better healthcare outcomes for the people of Hambleton, Richmondshire and Whitby and to empower local people to take informed decisions about their own health and wellbeing in partnership with health professionals. This will be our last annual report as Hambleton, Richmondshire and Whitby CCG. As you will read in this report substantial work has been undertaken this year to bring together three North Yorkshire CCGs (Hambleton Richmondshire and Whitby CCG, Harrogate and Rural District CCG, and Scarborough and Ryedale CCG) as the North Yorkshire Clinical Commissioning Group from 1 April 2020. By coming together as a larger, strategic organisation we can transform how we deliver healthcare. This new approach to healthcare commissioning is great news for the people of North Yorkshire. It will enable closer collaboration and consistency of approach, enabling us to amplify the impact of our resources and expertise. This does not mean we will dilute either our clinical or local focus – both remain at the heart of how we will deliver for our communities. This year has seen a journey of significant change for the CCG. We received approval from NHS England to establish the Yorkshire Clinical Commissioning Group on 1 April 2020 in November last year.

We are delighted that the past few months have been busy with the Friends' Heritage Walks and Talks which are wonderful ways to spread the message about the Museum to a wider audience. Next years’ lecture programme deals with a whole range of subjects from death to the local bus service, we are nothing if not eclectic, and the Heritage walks are back by popular demand. Funds raised by the Friends have been used to meet 50% of the costs of the Prehistoric Landscape displays. Keep coming to our events, bring your friends, and don't forget the AGM on 29th October, and the Christmas Party in the Museum on 17th December!

  • Richmondshire District Council Does Not Currently Meet the Criteria for Electoral Inequality Ie
    District Ward Boundary Review Richmondshire District Council Stage One - Council Size Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (April 2017) 1 Introduction The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) is an independent body that is responsible for conducting boundary and electoral reviews of principal authorities in England. Richmondshire District Council does not currently meet the criteria for electoral inequality ie. 30% of wards having a variance greater than +/- 10% of the average electorate per Member, however this threshold is likely to be reached in the very near future. As a result the Council decided in July 2016 to request the LGBCE to undertake an electoral review. This request was accepted and the review was included in their programme. The electoral review will examine whether the boundaries of wards within the local authority area need to be altered to ensure fair representation at the local government elections. In Richmondshire it has been identified that six of the twenty four wards have imbalances. The table below sets out the current imbalances in the District. No (%) Number of wards (>10%) 5 Number of wards (>20%) 0 Number of wards (>30%) 1 The Wards with the above variances are: (%) Brompton-on-Swale & Scorton 11% Hipswell 12% Hornby Castle 29% Middleton Tyas -14% Scotton -12% Swaledale -11% The main reasons for the electoral inequality arises from new housing developments, under registration of service personnel and population changes, the detail of which will be explained in the following sections. North Yorkshire County Council is not within the LGBCE programme for review and the County Council have indicated they will not be requesting a review of the County Divisions.
