Introduction A 2013 research seminar hosted by the EngLaId project1 examined whether or not landscapes are invested with agency, reflecting theoretical discussions which propose that people, other living organisms and objects are entangled within meshworks or assemblages of relational agency. This paper builds upon these debates through case studies of later prehistoric and Romano-British trackways from Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire. It argues that agency resided in and was enacted through constraints and affordances between people, animals, and the material, lived-in world.

With long-standing links to the coal industry, the village was home to the last remaining colliery in Leeds, which closed in 1992. Prior to development of the Millennium Community, Allerton Bywater had a population of around 4,000. Allerton Bywater Millennium Community was announced by John Prescott in 1998 as the second Millennium Community, after Greenwich in south east London. It lies on the former site of Allerton Colliery, control of which passed from the National Coal Board to English Partnerships (now the Homes and Communities Agency) in 1995. Initial work focused on land remediation and decontamination, dealing with issues relating to the legacy of the colliery such as capping pit-shafts. Flood alleviation was also necessary as the site lies within the River Aire floodplain and severe floods occurred in 2000 and 2002.

  • Popular Political Oratory and Itinerant Lecturing in Yorkshire and the North East in the Age of Chartism, 1837-60 Janette Lisa M
    Popular political oratory and itinerant lecturing in Yorkshire and the North East in the age of Chartism, 1837-60 Janette Lisa Martin This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of York Department of History January 2010 ABSTRACT Itinerant lecturers declaiming upon free trade, Chartism, temperance, or anti- slavery could be heard in market places and halls across the country during the years 1837- 60. The power of the spoken word was such that all major pressure groups employed lecturers and sent them on extensive tours. Print historians tend to overplay the importance of newspapers and tracts in disseminating political ideas and forming public opinion. This thesis demonstrates the importance of older, traditional forms of communication. Inert printed pages were no match for charismatic oratory. Combining personal magnetism, drama and immediacy, the itinerant lecturer was the most effective medium through which to reach those with limited access to books, newspapers or national political culture. Orators crucially united their dispersed audiences in national struggles for reform, fomenting discussion and coalescing political opinion, while railways, the telegraph and expanding press reportage allowed speakers and their arguments to circulate rapidly. Understanding of political oratory and public meetings has been skewed by over- emphasis upon the hustings and high-profile politicians. This has generated two misconceptions: that political meetings were generally rowdy and that a golden age of political oratory was secured only through Gladstone’s legendary stumping tours. However, this thesis argues that, far from being disorderly, public meetings were carefully regulated and controlled offering disenfranchised males a genuine democratic space for political discussion.

  • LEDSTON & OWL WOOD (4.5 Miles)
    LEDSTON & OWL WOOD (4.5 miles) A relatively easy-going 4.5 mile walk taking in the villages of Kippax and Ledston along with Owl Wood near Allerton Bywater. The paths through Owl Wood can be muddy after wet weather. There are no stiles on this walk however; there is a short steep hill to walk back into Kippax towards the end. Start Point: Kippax Co-operative Supermarket, High Street, Kippax, Leeds Kippax: There is no written evidence of Roman Kippax but the road to the East of the village, Ridge Road which we cross twice on this walk, is on the line of the Roman road from Castleford to York. This together with the Domesday entry of ‘Chipesh’ means there have been people living here from early times. The Domesday Survey of 1086 is about the earliest documentary evidence for Kippax and valued the village at £16. Coal Mining is mentioned about 1320 and has been an important industry in Kippax and the immediate area until the last mine in the district closed in 1992 (at Allerton Bywater). There have been many mines in the village, at least three just beyond the top of the High Street in the last 150 years. The population of the village in the 14th Century is thought to have been about 150/200 based on figures found in a Charter relating to Pontefract Castle, which was a substantial village for that period. The church which is the oldest building in the village is thought by experts to have been built by the Normans in a possible late Saxon style.
