Field Trip Narrative with Photos
U3A Naturalists’ Field Trip to Derbyshire 8-12 June 2015 Group outside the hotel 30 members of our group set out from Harrogate for our first venue which was Potteric Carr Nature Reserve run by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust near Doncaster, where various guides escorted us around the large reserve which has a variety of habitats ranging from lagoons to woodland. We then continued to Dovedale in Derbyshire where we stayed in the Holiday Fellow- ship Centre there. Unlike previous years when we had the venue to ourselves, we were sharing with other groups each following a different pursuit. It also meant that we shared tables at meal times and could join in a variety of evening activities such as country dancing which proved to be quite popular with some members. We explored Dovedale itself the following day and began by climbing Thorpe Cloud just behind the hotel for the magnificent views from the top. Dovedale is set amidst limestone scenery and is part of ‘The White Peak’. We enjoyed a day of examining the flora and tree species inhabiting the dale and some of us extended the walk and returned via a fairly ‘ adventurous’ route on a higher path to enjoy the magnificent scenery. Wednesday took us to Lathkill Dale – a beautiful On top of Thorpe Cloud valley with a crystal clear stream running through it and remnants of industrial archaeology where an innovative system of water pipes helped provide a constant supply of water to the surrounding area. Further up the dale we found a unique location for the attractive ‘ Jacob’s Ladder’ ( Polemonium caeruleum).

LONG DISTANCE WALKERS ASSOCIATION AIM: TO FURTHER THE INTERESTS OF THOSE WHO ENJOY LONG DISTANCE WALKING BEDS, BUCKS & NORTHANTS GROUP NEWSLETTER AUTUMN 2017 HAVE A GREAT DAY OUT, WALK WITH BBN www.ldwa.org.uk/bedsbucksandnorthants NEW MEMBERS A very warm welcome to our new members Matthew Lane and David Trew, and welcome back Judy Nickerson. CHAIRMAN’S CHATTER A picture is worth a thousand words (Who sang that? There’s a question for you). Our very own Steve Clark supplied the front cover picture for the August Strider which summed up the sheer exuberance of youth and the joy of taking part in the annual 48 hour non-stop party also known as the LDWA North York Moors 100. Steve was telling us at a party hosted by his “mate Eamsie” that he asked the woman concerned Sharon Sullivan to do this 3 or 4 times. She was only too happy to oblige! Steve reached a big birthday recently and I was very pleased to meet him, Sylvie, his sister Barbara and Cap’n Betty Sherry on their Canal Boat Trip at The Plough on the day concerned. As Steve is doing The Annapurna Sanctuary in December we can expect lots of photos on his website. Speaking of social media affairs, the BBN Facebook group continues to go from strength to strength ably marshalled by Daniel and Gill with them readily accepting new members. As we are now a public group anyone can see what we do for fun on Thursdays, Sundays, and occasionally Saturdays. The other days we’ll leave to their imagination! The photographs are continually updated and show what a varied walks programme we have.

Reconstructing Palaeoenvironments of the White Peak Region of Derbyshire, Northern England
THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL Reconstructing Palaeoenvironments of the White Peak Region of Derbyshire, Northern England being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Hull by Simon John Kitcher MPhysGeog May 2014 Declaration I hereby declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own, except where otherwise stated, and that it has not been previously submitted in application for any other degree at any other educational institution in the United Kingdom or overseas. ii Abstract Sub-fossil pollen from Holocene tufa pool sediments is used to investigate middle – late Holocene environmental conditions in the White Peak region of the Derbyshire Peak District in northern England. The overall aim is to use pollen analysis to resolve the relative influence of climate and anthropogenic landscape disturbance on the cessation of tufa production at Lathkill Dale and Monsal Dale in the White Peak region of the Peak District using past vegetation cover as a proxy. Modern White Peak pollen – vegetation relationships are examined to aid semi- quantitative interpretation of sub-fossil pollen assemblages. Moss-polsters and vegetation surveys incorporating novel methodologies are used to produce new Relative Pollen Productivity Estimates (RPPE) for 6 tree taxa, and new association indices for 16 herb taxa. RPPE’s of Alnus, Fraxinus and Pinus were similar to those produced at other European sites; Betula values displaying similarity with other UK sites only. RPPE’s for Fagus and Corylus were significantly lower than at other European sites. Pollen taphonomy in woodland floor mosses in Derbyshire and East Yorkshire is investigated.

The 1717 Guide Stoop on Longstone Edge. Is It Missing?
The 1717 Guide Stoop on Longstone Edge. Is it missing? Ann Hall with valuable assistance from Alan Jones Introduction When Alison Stuart was preparing to move out of her family home at Christmas Cottage in Little Longstone shortly after Michael's death in 2012, she asked Hillary Clarke and I to help with finding the most appropriate home for papers that he had collected during his historical research. As we worked through a lifetime's work on many topics of local interest we came upon a photocopy of a guide stoop. Hilary recognised it as the one from Longstone Edge and I became interested to find out more. This article is the result of my investigations. Some of my chief sources of information were from books which describe rambles through Derbyshire in a rather romantic manner in the first half of the nineteenth century. They were not intended to be full scientific records of features along the way but rather a description of interesting walks and fascinating items along the route. The record in the books is not always reliable but I have tried to extract as much sound information as I can. There are records of a guide stoop, dated 1717, on Longstone Edge since 1905. Some of the earlier information is quite detailed and this suggests that it really was in existence at Page 2 of 5 Guide Stoop on Longstone Edge the time of the recording. In more recent reports it is listed as missing. My recent research intended to find out if it really is lost for ever.

Mercian 11 B Hunter.Indd
The Cressbrook Dale Lava and Litton Tuff, between Longstone and Hucklow Edges, Derbyshire John Hunter and Richard Shaw Abstract: With only a small exposure near the head of its eponymous dale, the Cressbrook Dale Lava is the least exposed of the major lava flows interbedded within the Carboniferous platform- carbonate succession of the Derbyshire Peak District. It underlies a large area of the limestone plateau between Longstone Edge and the Eyam and Hucklow edges. The recent closure of all of the quarries and underground mines in this area provided a stimulus to locate and compile the existing subsurface information relating to the lava-field and, supplemented by airborne geophysical survey results, to use these data to interpret the buried volcanic landscape. The same sub-surface data-set is used to interpret the spatial distribution of the overlying Litton Tuff. Within the regional north-south crustal extension that survey indicate that the outcrops of igneous rocks in affected central and northern Britain on the north side the White Peak are only part of a much larger volcanic of the Wales-Brabant High during the early part of the field, most of which is concealed at depth beneath Carboniferous, a province of subsiding platforms, tilt- Millstone Grit and Coal Measures farther east. Because blocks and half-grabens developed beneath a shallow no large volcano structures have been discovered so continental sea. Intra-plate magmatism accompanied far, geological literature describes the lavas in the the lithospheric thinning, with basic igneous rocks White Peak as probably originating from four separate erupting at different times from a number of small, local centres, each being active in a different area at different volcanic centres scattered across a region extending times (Smith et al., 2005).
