  • LCA Introduction
    The Hambleton and Howardian Hills CAN DO (Cultural and Natural Development Opportunity) Partnership The CAN DO Partnership is based around a common vision and shared aims to develop: An area of landscape, cultural heritage and biodiversity excellence benefiting the economic and social well-being of the communities who live within it. The organisations and agencies which make up the partnership have defined a geographical area which covers the south-west corner of the North York Moors National Park and the northern part of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The individual organisations recognise that by working together resources can be used more effectively, achieving greater value overall. The agencies involved in the CAN DO Partnership are – the North York Moors National Park Authority, the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, English Heritage, Natural England, Forestry Commission, Environment Agency, Framework for Change, Government Office for Yorkshire and the Humber, Ryedale District Council and Hambleton District Council. The area was selected because of its natural and cultural heritage diversity which includes the highest concentration of ancient woodland in the region, a nationally important concentration of veteran trees, a range of other semi-natural habitats including some of the most biologically rich sites on Jurassic Limestone in the county, designed landscapes, nationally important ecclesiastical sites and a significant concentration of archaeological remains from the Neolithic to modern times. However, the area has experienced the loss of many landscape character features over the last fifty years including the conversion of land from moorland to arable and the extensive planting of conifers on ancient woodland sites.

This management plan also makes the important connection between people and nature. I am pleased to hear that local communities have been central to the development of the plan, and will be at the heart of its delivery. From volunteers on nature conservation projects, to businesses working to promote sustainable tourism, it’s great to hear of the enthusiasm and commitment of the local people who hold their AONBs so dear. Ministerial Foreword AONBs are, and will continue to be, landscapes of change.

  • Annual Review 2012 - 2013 Chairman’S Foreword
    Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Annual Review 2012 - 2013 Chairman’s Foreword It has been another excellent year despite an atrocious summer bracketed by two horrendous winters - however the sun now shines, walking boots are being polished, the cat has been forcibly evicted from my anorak and waterproof trousers and we are looking forward to another season of excellent walking, kick-started with this year's very successful Lincolnshire Wolds Walking Festival launch held at Scrivelsby Estate. This builds on the success of the 2012 Festival which last year, despite a soggy second week, saw well over 4,500 walking across our Wolds; your chairman enjoyed six good walks last year and looks forward to exploring more of our gorgeous landscape. Another highlight was the acceptance of the prestigious Bowland Award from the National Association for AONBs at the conference in York. This award was presented to the Lincolnshire Chalk Streams Project following a vote amongst the UK's 46 AONBs. It is an accolade presented annually for the best project, best practice or for outstanding contribution to the wellbeing of the Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, so it was a very proud day for the whole of the Wolds team. Our thanks go to Ruth Snelson who has so very ably led the project, but also crucially the Environment Agency, Anglian Water and other funding partners, without whom this would not have happened. Work is ongoing in organising the chance to get Lincolnshire school eld trips out into the Lincolnshire Wolds, the rst of these should start next year.
