Other Information In relation to broadband services, our clients tell us that fast broadband is thought to be coming to Threlkeld in about 2017. However, in the meantime our clients have a contract with EE who have installed 4G into the local mobile mast which is just above the village, so there is an excellent signal providing a connection which offers between 10 and 20 Mbps. Using wireless repeaters provides coverage over the whole house. and the setup is very reliable. The main roof has integrated Worcester solar water heating panels controlled by a state of the art Steca controller. This automatically integrates the water heating from the boiler with that from the solar panels. The output of the panels is about 150Kw in each of the summer months. The roof over the mezzanine sitting room has integrated Romag Powerglaz PV panels with a peak output of 2.88kw. These were installed in 2010, benefiting from the full PV tariff. This produces around £1000 per year tax free and is guaranteed to do so for the next 15 years. The tariff is automatically uplifted every year by the RPI rate of inflation. The oil-fired central heating is controlled by zoned Danfoss wireless thermostats. There is a wireless watchman oil level indicator in the mezzanine lounge. The kitchen has electric plinth heaters controlled by a separate Danfoss thermostat.

  • Jubilee Digest Briefing Note for Cartmel and Furness
    Furness Peninsula Department of History, Lancaster University Victoria County History: Cumbria Project ‘Jubilee Digests’ Briefing Note for Furness Peninsula In celebration of the Diamond Jubilee in 2012, the Queen has decided to re-dedicate the VCH. To mark this occasion, we aim to have produced a set of historical data for every community in Cumbria by the end of 2012. These summaries, which we are calling ‘Jubilee Digests’, will be posted on the Cumbria County History Trust’s website where they will form an important resource as a quick reference guide for all interested in the county’s history. We hope that all VCH volunteers will wish to get involved and to contribute to this. What we need volunteers to do is gather a set of historical facts for each of the places for which separate VCH articles will eventually be written: that’s around 315 parishes/townships in Cumberland and Westmorland, a further 30 in Furness and Cartmel, together with three more for Sedbergh, Garsdale and Dent. The data included in the digests, which will be essential to writing future VCH parish/township articles, will be gathered from a limited set of specified sources. In this way, the Digests will build on the substantial progress volunteers have already made during 2011 in gathering specific information about institutions in parishes and townships throughout Cumberland and Westmorland. As with all VCH work, high standards of accuracy and systematic research are vital. Each ‘Jubilee Digest’ will contain the following and will cover a community’s history from the earliest times to the present day: Name of place: status (i.e.

  • William-Atkinson-Unidentified-Cumbrian-Pewterer.Pdf
    This website would like to thank Michael Finlay of Cumbria for his permission to use these articles on our website. ……………………………………………….. We also acknowledge the copyright of the Cumberland and Westmorland Archaeological and Antiquarian Society who first published these articles in the Transactions of the Society. ART. XV. - WilliamAtkinson, (1692-1766), of Wigton-A Hitherto UnidentifiedCumbrian Pewterer. By MICHAEL FINLAY, N.D.D., Dip.Ed., F.S.V.A. y attention was firstdrawn to the existence of a pewterer namedWilliam Atkinson, by an entry in Christopher A. Peal's More Pewter Marks, (The Pewter Society, 1976),M published to update H. H. Cotterell's Old Pewter, Its Makers and Marks, (Batsford, London, 1929). The entry, under serial 135, in the former,submitted to Peal by A. Sutherland Graeme, Esq., shows the touchmark of William Atkinson (my own drawing of the mark is at Fig. I), with the source: "On a flagon at St. Mary's Church, Wigton, c. 1725". In Cotterell, under the same serial, we find the entry: "Atkinson, William, London, 14 Aug. 1718, Y.", (signifying the date of his election to the Freedom or Yeomanry of the Worshipful Company of Pewterers). My firstinspection of the Wigton flagon, in April 1979, showed it to have similarities in design to other flagons in the Diocese, particularly that made by Abraham Crawley of Penrith, at St. Cuthbert's, Dufton, 1 which suggested a local origin, and as the touchmark does not appear on the London Company's touchplate,2 it seemed possible that Atkinson might be a local man. A search of the Probate Indexes at the Cumbria Record Office, Carlisle, produced his will, in which he is described as "William Atkinson ofWaverton in the Parishof Wigton and County of Cumberlad (sic), Pewterer", one of the very few known Cumbrian pewterers and hitherto unidentified.No other example of his work appears so far to have come to light.

    Pre-Submission Local Plan Living Lakes Your Local Plan #ShapeTheLakes April 2019 Credit: Andrew Locking Andrew “TheSection 1 IntroductionLake District is an2 evolving masterpiece, shaped and modified by people, culture, farming and industry for thousands of years.” Lord Clark of Windermere, 2015 Section 1 Introduction i Foreword Since our Core Strategy was adopted in 2010, planning policy has undergone some significant changes as set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). As such, we need to ensure our plans are fit for purpose and conform to national planning policy. The new Local Plan will be our strategic plan for development for the Lake District up to 2035. Our aim has been to produce a planning framework that delivers the homes, communities and countryside that the Lake District wants and needs. We want to deliver our vision for the Lake District to be ‘an inspirational example of sustainable development in action’. The Lake District received its inscription as a World Heritage Site in July 2017. In the longer term we want World Heritage Status to be a positive force to support new investment in the Lake District’s cultural and natural environment, its communities and economies. One of our key challenges is to enable growth to provide housing and jobs whilst conserving the landscape and its Special Qualities and attributes of Outstanding Universal Value. We have gathered evidence and listened to our communities, businesses and stakeholders to find out what the key issues are in the Lake District and how we can use this plan to deliver those aspirations. This Plan is a result of consultation and engagement with our communities, businesses, organisations and stakeholders.
