More than 1000 respondents gave their views on issues ranging from Council services to public events and car parking; the responses, including more than 5000 written comments, were analysed, prioritised and published in May 2018 as the Leyburn Town Plan. With reference to Richmondshire District Council’s current Local Plan calling for a large number of new houses to be built in and around Leyburn the survey solicited views on the type and tenure of houses in any new developments.

School meals are free to all children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2. We would encourage parents to pay for the half term if possible rather than weekly, as the school is charged for every payment made and we would prefer to keep these charges as low as possible so more of the school funds can be used on resources for the children. Please can all payments be made using ParentPay. Some of you will be new to the ParentPay system, you should have received an activation letter this week. Please activate your child’s account as soon as possible. Please can existing users check their balance before making a payment as you may have a credit or debit that needs to be taken into account.

There are no known copyright restrictions in the United States on the use of the text. http://www.archive.org/details/cu31924084250624 YORKSHIRE INQUISITIONS. VOL. V. THE YORKSHIRE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY- Founded 1863. Incorporated 1893. RECORD SERIES, Vol. LIX. FOR THE YEAR 191 8. INQUISITIONS POST MORTEM RELATING TO YORKSHIRE, OF THE REIGNS OF HENRY IV AND HENRY V. KDITED BY W. PALEY BAILDON, F.S.A., AND J. W. CLAY, F.S.A. PRINTED FOR THE SOCIETY. 1918. PREFACE The present volume contains all the inquisitions post mortem, proofs of age and assignments of dower, relating to Yorkshire, for the reigns of Henry IV and Henry V, that are contained in the Chancery series. That series formerly included also the inquisitions ad quod damnum, which have now been made into a separate class, and are therefore not dealt with here. In view of the very full introduction to Vol. xii of the Record Series, it seems unnecessary to add to this volume any introduction on similar lines. The whole class of Chancery inquisitions post mortem is under arrangement; the documents are now arranged in files numbered from the beginning of each reign. The documents themselves, however, have not so far been renumbered, and still have the old system of numbering, beginning a new serial with each regnal year. It has therefore been thought better not to give the old serial number, in view of a probable renumbering at no distant date.
