Mike has been the spokesman of fell-running for eleven years and has brought to the position of Secretary all the enthusiasm, diligence, common-sense and sheer bloody-mindedness of his considerable personality. He has always had the wider interests of fell-running in mind and his love of the environment and for the innumerable characters who inhabit our sport has been evident throughout his tenure. His presence has enlivened many a post-race gathering - and in the case of Jura and the Mountain Trial - pre- and during- race as well - and our sport has benefitted enormously from his work over the years. Sadly, Mike's health is not, at present, in a very sound state and he decided in Autumn that, reluctantly he would have to relinquish his position as Secretary. His detailed reasons for doing so can be found in his "Rambling Rose" column, which he intends to continue producing, and I am sure that all of us wish him well with his medical treatment and trust that, whether as FRA Secretary or not, we will continue to enjoy his company at fell races for a good many years yet.

This article examines available literature to date and includes images of all four surviving specimens that can lay claim to Irish provenance. [This is an update to the article written in February 2014]. The presence of the Mountain Ringlet (Erebia epiphron) in Ireland has been a topic of much interest to Lepidopterists for decades, partly because of the small number of specimens that are reputedly Irish. The Irish Mountain Ringlet is truly the stuff of legend and many articles have been written over the years, including the excellent summary by Chalmers-Hunt (1982). The purpose of this article is to examine all relevant literature and, in particular, the various points of view that have been expressed over the years. This article also includes images of all four surviving specimens that can lay claim to Irish provenance and some of the sites mentioned in conjunction with these specimens are shown in Figure 1.

Over the years many additions and developments have been undertaken at the hotel; the addition of new Resort bedrooms and a magnificent new Spa in 2006 being the most significant in its history. The History of the Slieve Donard Resort and Spa Famous Guests For over a century the hotel has witnessed a massive ensemble of VIPS and Celebrities who have enjoyed the chic style and hospitality of ‘The Slieve’. Former guests at the hotel include: Percy French: Charlie Chaplin: King Leopold (of Belgium): Alan Whicker: Judith Chalmers: Dame Judi Dench: Angela Rippon: Sir Alf Ramsey: Jack Charlton: Frank Bough: Daniel O’Donnell to name but a few.

  • Community Led Plan 2019 – 2024
    The Community Plan and Action Plan for Millom Without Parish Community Led Plan 2019 – 2024 1 1. About Our Parish Millom Without Parish Council is situated in the Copeland constituency of South West Cumbria. The Parish footprint is both in the Lake District National Park or within what is regarded as the setting of the Lake District National Park. This picturesque area is predominately pastoral farmland, open fell and marshland. Within its boundary are the villages of The Green, The Hill, Lady Hall and Thwaites. On the North West side, shadowed by Black Combe, is the Whicham Valley and to the South the Duddon Estuary. On its borders are the villages of Silecroft, Kirksanton, Haverigg, Broughton in Furness, Foxfield, Kirkby in Furness, Ireleth, Askam and the town of Millom. On the horizon are the Lake District Fells which include Coniston, Langdale and Scafell Ranges and is the gateway to Ulpha, Duddon and Lickle Valleys. Wordsworth wrote extensively of the Duddon, a river he knew and loved from his early years. The Parish has approximately 900 Residents. The main industry in this and surrounding areas is tourism and its relevant services. Farming is also predominant and in Millom there are a number of small industrial units. The Parish is also home to Ghyll Scaur Quarry. 2. Our Heritage Millom Without is rich in sites of both historic and environmental interest. Historic features include an important and spectacular bronze age stone circle at Swinside, the Duddon Iron furnace, and Duddon Bridge. The landscape of Millom Without includes the Duddon estuary and the views up to the Western and Central Lake District Fells.

    Heritage Team 4th Floor 100 Parliament Street London SW1A 2BQ T: 020 7211 2018 [email protected] www.gov.uk/dcms 11 November 2016 Dear Ms Bourdin, Thank you for your letter of 17 October requesting further information regarding the nomination of the English Lake District for World Heritage inscription. You have asked for further details concerning proposals for development in the English Lake District and we feel that it would be helpful to preface our response with some explanation of the planning functions and powers of the Lake District National Park Authority, which is the planning authority for the whole of the candidate English Lake District World Heritage site. The English Lake District is an outstanding cultural landscape that has evolved over a long period of time and needs to continue evolving to sustain its future. We have a vibrant community of some 42,000 residents and an economy that is sustained by the key activities of upland hill farming and tourism. These activities inevitably need to develop in order to sustain the local economy and along with other requirements of the Lake District community, they generate planning applications which are determined by the Lake District National Park Authority. UK National Parks have the highest level of planning protection in the UK and the framework for our decision-making is outlined below. BACKGROUND TO THE PLANNING FUNCTION OF UK NATIONAL PARKS UK National Parks were established under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, and amended by the Environment Act 1995, to: conserve and enhance the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage (of the National Parks); and promote opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the special qualities (of the National Parks) by the public.
