I hope you’ll enjoy this first edition of 2012 and that it will whet your appetite for getting fit for your big challenge this year, whatever that might be. I have certainly drawn inspiration from the achievements of my fellow club members. We’re once again the strongest fell running club in the country, with our many individual and team successes culminating in first place in the prestigious FRA Relays. You can read an account of this from team captain Rob Little on page 30. Just as impressive as our many competitive successes was Nicky Spinks’ remarkable extension of the women’s 24 hour Lake District endurance record to 64 peaks - and with 45 minutes to spare. You’ll no doubt have heard about that at the time, but you may not be aware that Nicky also experienced acute exhaustion later in the year. She reflects on the highs and lows of 2011 on page 12. Another person reflecting on a slightly bitter-sweet experience is Roger Baumeister after the latest instalment in his long relationship with the Pennine Way. Roger’s attempt to get from one end to the other entirely self-sufficiently may not have been a success, but isn’t it fantastic that he’s still plugging away at such adventures? He makes me all the more determined to have another crack at the Paddy Buckley Round this year after the dietary fiasco last summer that landed me with the dubious distinction of becoming the first Dark Peaker to win the Pertex trophy twice. Help needed, please There used to be a well understood rule in Dark Peak that you ran the Edale Skyline one year and then helped the next. It’s not been so strictly enforced of late, possibly because it is a bit tough on people who are peaking for the championships or other big events. But it remains the case that the Skyline is a huge organisational challenge for the club. We’re often praised for running an excellent event, but that reputation depends on an army of helpers on the day. Ian Fitzpatrick has taken over as event coordinator and is bringing some fresh ideas to the task. He sets them out on page 20, and makes it clear that he needs offers of help good and early. The event is so popular that it filled up within days of entries being available online. If you don’t have an entry and have a free diary on Sunday, March 25th, Ian would be delighted to hear from you. The club’s second big organisational task is the Burbage race a little later in the year, and organiser Roy Gibson is also looking for offers of help. And, not so seriously… It’s a pleasure to bring back the long overdue caption competition. Congratulations to Dave McGuiness on winning the last one, and congratulations to Lloyd Taggart, Jon Morgan and Oli Johnson for bringing the unique combination of hosiery, prehistoric garb, bare flesh and fruit to the new one. By the time you read this, the competition will be open for entries online. Please chip in. While you’re at it, how many uses can you find for the magnificent (!) new Dark Peak tie? Dave Dark Peak News February 2012 page 4 News Moscar Snares – sorted at last? Bob Berzins writes: Last year two club members were injured by wire snares while exercising their right of access to land owned by the Moscar estate, ie Bamford Moor and the Hallam Moors. There were also several near misses and one further incident of a walker being caught in a snare. There has now been a series of meetings to try to ensure that runners and other people can enjoy this land safely. The use of snares is a complex and emotive issue, raising concerns on legal, access and moral grounds. We are at the end of an era where snares and similar land management practices have been tolerated or even welcomed. Snares are illegal in many European countries and a ban has been debated in the Scottish Parliament. In the long term I’m sure they will be outlawed in this country, but in the meantime we have to try to find a way to co-exist with landowners who insist on their use. Snares are legal, but landowners also have a duty of care to the public under the Occupiers’ Liability Act, even if there is no public access. The duty may be discharged if the landowner gives warning of the danger or discourages people from incurring the risk. The Moscar landowner has applied for a statutory closure of the four areas of access land where snares are used, arguing that there is a public danger, i.e. that people’s safety cannot be guaranteed if they choose to go there. Such closure is possible under the CROW Act, but typically it is used to curtail more extreme risks, for example those associated with shooting ranges. At the moment it’s not clear if this application will proceed or be withdrawn, but it’s looking more likely that it will not go ahead. Dark Peak News February 2012 page 5 John Dalton and I recently attended a meeting that tried to arrive at a compromise. It was suggested that warning signs be placed around the edge of the snared areas at Oaking Clough, Bamford Edge, Bole Hill (near Dennis Knoll) and Stanage Lodge. The gamekeeper said he would mark individual snares with a bamboo cane, set at an angle across the trod. The only one of these areas that is fenced is Oaking Clough, and in this area there will be no bamboo canes. The aim of this scheme is to give clear warning when you enter a snared area, but to leave access open. The gamekeeper would have to make the danger obvious to someone who was visiting the area for the first time, with no knowledge of the background. I am concerned that signs may get overgrown or forgotten and that bamboo canes will be difficult to spot against dried bracken. Help needed from club members I’d like as many people as possible to visit the snared areas and feedback your views to the peak park access manager, [email protected], with a copy to me at [email protected]. If you think the warning signs are insufficient or it’s not clear what the canes are supposed to show, then highlight this in your email. Be warned - each one of these areas contains around 50 snares. I was left with the impression that the gamekeeper may take a considerable time to implement this scheme. If this is the case, then again inform the access manager. Make sure you don’t touch any signs, snares or canes as this might be seen as criminal damage.

  • Outlaw: Wilderness and Exile in Old and Middle
    THE ‘BESTLI’ OUTLAW: WILDERNESS AND EXILE IN OLD AND MIDDLE ENGLISH LITERATURE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Sarah Michelle Haughey August 2011 © 2011 Sarah Michelle Haughey THE ‘BESTLI’ OUTLAW: WILDERNESS AND EXILE IN OLD AND MIDDLE ENGLISH LITERATURE Sarah Michelle Haughey, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 This dissertation, The ‘Bestli’ Outlaw: Wilderness and Exile in Old and Middle English Literature explores the reasons for the survival of the beast-like outlaw, a transgressive figure who highlights tensions in normative definitions of human and natural, which came to represent both the fears and the desires of a people in a state of constant negotiation with the land they inhabited. Although the outlaw’s shelter in the wilderness changed dramatically from the dense and menacing forests of Anglo-Saxon England to the bright, known, and mapped greenwood of the late outlaw romances and ballads, the outlaw remained strongly animalistic, other, and liminal, in strong contrast to premodern notions of what it meant to be human and civilized. I argue that outlaw narratives become particularly popular and poignant at moments of national political and ecological crisis—as they did during the Viking attacks of the Anglo-Saxon period, the epoch of intense natural change following the Norman Conquest, and the beginning of the market revolution at the end of the Middle Ages. Figures like the Anglo-Saxon resistance fighter Hereward, the exiled Marcher lord Fulk Fitz Waryn, and the brutal yet courtly Gamelyn and Robin Hood, represent a lost England imagined as pristine and forested.

  • Peak Malpractice
    Peak Malpractice What’s happening to wildlife in the Peak District National Park? Who’s killing the wildlife of the Peak District National Park? Populations of some protected birds are declining from the woods and moors of the Dark Peak. If this part of the Peak District National Park is a no-go zone for some of Britain’s most cherished wildlife, it reinforces the urgent need for statutory agencies, voluntary groups and landowners to protect wild birds and tackle any criminal activity against wildlife with renewed vigour and determination. 3 What’s happening to wildlife in the Peak District National Park? A walk across the moorlands and The continued declines of some species and a series through the valleys of the Dark Peak of incidents in recent years has led to our call for urgent action. in spring and summer is enriched by the sight and sound of nesting birds: Studies across the UK show many examples where the evocative, bubbling call of curlews, birds of prey, particularly peregrines, golden eagles and hen harriers, fare much worse when they nest on moors the drumming display of snipe, managed for driven grouse-shooting.1,2,3,4 the aerobatics of ravens and the brief dash of the spectacular goshawk. Concerns about the decline of raptors in the Dark Peak prompted the development of the Peak Nestwatch Partnership in 2000 (see box). Much of the Dark Peak is privately-owned moorland managed for driven grouse-shooting. In part, this has shaped the landscape of the Dark Peak. The heather moors have been maintained by management for grouse-shooting, whereas many other moors were heavily grazed or planted with The Peak Nestwatch Partnership trees.

A Conservation Area is defined as an area of ‘special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance’ (Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990). Each Conservation Area has a unique character shaped by a combination of elements including buildings, materials, spaces, trees, street plan, history and economic background. The aim of Conservation Area designation is to ensure that this character is not destroyed or undermined by inappropriate changes. Conservation Areas in the Peak District National Park There are 109 Conservation Areas in the National Park. Most contain groups of traditional buildings. Others include Historic Parks and Gardens, such as Lyme Park, or industrial sites, such as Cressbrook Mill. Conservation Areas generally have an aesthetic quality that makes them desirable places in which to live.
