  • County Durham Landscape Character Assessment: Classification
    LANDSCAPE CHARACTER THE LANDSCAPE CLASSIFICATION The Landscape Classification The County Durham Landscape Character Assessment identifies landscape types and character areas at three different levels - the regional, the sub-regional and the local. Regional County Character Areas Sub-regional Broad Landscape Types Broad Character Areas See Table 1 Local Local Landscape Types See Table 2 Local Sub-types County Character Areas. County Character Areas are based on Natural England’s Countryside Character Areas. There are 6 Countryside Character Areas in County Durham, all of which extend beyond its administrative boundaries. County Character Areas are effectively those parts of Countryside Character Areas lying within the County. The boundaries of County Character Areas are more precisely drawn than those of Countryside Character Areas as they are based on a more detailed level of assessment. In reality the boundaries between these broad landscape zones are often gradual and progressive and difficult to identify precisely on the ground. The character of County Character Areas may differ in some ways from that of the larger Countryside Character Areas to which they belong. The descriptions of County Character Areas given here in the Landscape Assessment may therefore be slightly different to the descriptions given in other publications for Countryside Character Areas. Broad Landscape Types and Character Areas Broad Landscape Types are landscapes with similar patterns of geology, soils, vegetation, land use, settlement and field patterns identified at a broad sub-regional level. As with County Character Areas, the boundaries between Broad Landscape Types are not always precise, as the change between one landscape and another can be gradual and progressive.

  • Walk 9 Bowes East Circular
    TeWaelkings I n.d.. ale BOWES EAST CIRCULAR S T A R T A T : BOWES CAR PARK OPPOSITE VILLAGE HALL DISTANCE: 4.3 MILES TIME: 2.75 HOURS Series Walk... A leisurely walk of 3½ miles, along lanes and across fields in the valley of the River Greta. In the churchyard of St. Giles, up the hill on the o. left, is the grave of William Shaw, headmaster of the old school in the N 9 village known as Shaw’s Academy. This became Dotheboys Hall in Dickens’ “Nicholas Nickleby”. Route Information Outdoor Leisure Map 31 From the free car park opposite the Village Hall, by the crossroads at the eastern end of Bowes, you will walk up through the village past St Giles church and Bowes Castle, built in 1170 on the site of an earlier Roman Fort. From there you descend to the River Greta, cross the bridge, and walk east high up in the valley. The return route is part track and part fields lower down nearer the river. From the car park at Bowes (1) walk up general direction, into the woods above through the village. Turn left down a the River Greta. The path leads downhill narrow lane just past the Church (2), and to a track, where you turn left and soon at the bend in the lane is the entrance meet a lane close to Gilmonby Bridge to Bowes Castle. Continue along the (3). Turn right along the lane through lane, past the cemetery on the right, Gilmonby, ignoring a lane on the right, and soon go right through a stone stile to a sign-posted T-junction, marked Rigg on a sign-posted footpath which goes to the left (4).

  • NEWSLETTER 2 FEBRUARY 2012 Kiplings in 1911 the Family Trees
    NEWSLETTER 2 FEBRUARY 2012 Kiplings in 1911 The 1911 census of England and Wales (as transcribed by FindmyPast.co.uk) contains around 1,040 people named Kipling. This is not necessarily the entire population of Kiplings, as some will have been missed, either in error or because they were out of the country, and others will have been mistranscribed. There is no Rudyard Kipling for example, at least not the famous one (as he was on holiday in France at the time) although there are Rudyard Kiplings aged 7 in Oldham, 11 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and 14 in Leyburn, Yorkshire! These 1,040 Kiplings are spread over about 370 households and, as might be expected, are to be found predominantly in Durham (36%) and Yorkshire (25%). I have attempted to allocate each family containing at least one male Kipling to a particular family tree using available records. This leads to 29 trees, a number which can almost certainly be reduced with more effort and time. We have already got at least one y-chromosome DNA result for seven of these trees. We need to obtain more DNA results, spread across as many of the untested trees as possible. Using mail and electronic messaging (Facebook, Linked-in, etc), I am gradually trying to find additional participants (trying to link each man approached to one of the 1911 trees to avoid broken male lines or too many duplicates). Three more test kits have recently been issued and results can be expected in the next couple of months. The Family Trees The table below gives a short name for each of the 29 trees, followed by the name of the earliest ancestor identified in my own or others’ research.
