  • The Early Bryologists of South West Yorkshire
    THE EARLY BRYOLOGISTS OF SOUTH WEST YORKSHIRE by Tom Blockeel [Bulletin of the British Bryological Society, 38, 38-48 (July 1981)] This account brings together information which I have encountered during work on the bryology of South West Yorkshire (v.-c. 63). It lays no claim to originality, but is rather a collation of biographical data from disparate sources, and is presented here in the hope that it may be of interest to readers. I have confined myself largely to those botanists of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries who made significant contributions to the bryology of v.-c. 63. If there are any omissions or other deficiencies, I should be grateful to hear of them, and of any additional information which readers may have to hand. The Parish of Halifax has been a centre of bryological tradition for over two hundred years. It was there that there appeared, in 1775, the first contribution of substance to South Yorkshire bryology, in the form of an anonymous catalogue of plants published as an appendix to the Rev. J. Watson’s History and Antiquities of the Parish of Halifax. Traditionally, the catalogue was attributed to James Bolton (d. 1799) of Stannary, near Halifax, whose life was researched by Charles Crossland at the beginning of this century (Crump & Crossland, 1904; Crossland, 1908, 1910). Bolton was the author of fine illustrated botanical works, notably Filices Britannicae and the History of Fungusses growing about Halifax, the latter being the first British work exclusively devoted to fungi. However, his work extended beyond the purely botanical. Shortly after the completion of the History of Fungusses, which was dedicated to and sponsored by Henry, the sixth earl of Gainsborough, Bolton wrote to his friend John Ingham: ‘You must know, John, that I have been so long tilted between roses and toadstools, and back again from toadstools to roses, that I am wearied out with both for the present, and wish (by way of recreation only) to turn for awhile to some other page in the great volume.

Abstract Around the late third millennium BC small cup-shaped vessels began to appear in burial contexts across the North of England where they were found to be associated with Early Bronze Age funerary practices. Known by the name of incense cups, accessory vessels or miniature cups, their true purpose has been elusive. This study comprises an investigation of cups from Northern England and finds the tradition to be heavily influenced by Beaker culture practices resulting in the earliest cups emulating some attributes of Beaker ceramics. The Northern English Cup assemblage defies the current perception that all Cups are perforated as 63% are not; fabrics are found to be locally sourced and not imported and a review of the typology finds a strong regional adherence to the Food Vessel and Collared Urn tradition. Association in the grave with larger Urns is not as common as once believed and Cups have been found as the solitary ceramic indicating that they were important in their own right.

  • West Yorkshire Textile Heritage Project
    West Yorkshire Textile Heritage Project 1. Introduction The West Yorkshire Textile Heritage Project, is a partnership project between Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield Museum and Gallery services. The partnership has received a grant from the Esmee Fairbairn foundation to undertake a project which draws together the significant textile heritage collections held by these organisations. This will be achieved through a programme of research and documentation, to enhance what services know about their own and other regional collections. The collections will be made accessible via a website, acting as a single portal for information across the region. A textile heritage trail, linking museum collections with the built industrial heritage of the region, will be created with support from Welcome to Yorkshire. This support will take the form of hosting the trail on their website and printing the final publication. It is envisaged that this trail will also include, and develop links with, local businesses occupying mill premises. The project is an innovative pilot for future working across the region and contributes to the sustainable future development of the region’s museums and collections. 2. Purpose of this brief To seek a contractor to deliver the key outcomes of the project, within the defined timescale and budget. For the successful contractor to work with supporting organisations, such as Welcome to Yorkshire, other custodians of West Yorkshire textile collections/information and relevant businesses, to produce the tourist trail and website. 3. Background West Yorkshire was a major centre of textile production from the 18th century and the industry is still important today. The industry has left its physical marks across the region in everything from pack horse bridges and weavers cottages to mill owner’s mansions and large scale factories.
