Their values may well have been shaped or influenced by the speakers each heard; the documents they read; the doctrines, customs and traditions of the Christian and other organisations they belonged to; the beliefs and attitudes of their families, friends, teachers, neighbours, employers and opinion formers of their time; the lives they all led and the contemporary national and world events that touched them. It seems to me impossible to write a history of Roundhay Methodist Church without describing something of the lives of those who participated in Church Life and shaped what we now enjoy. I confess I find people more interesting than documenting bricks and mortar, or recounting decisions recorded in minute books, but they all play a part in our history. I am not a trained historian but have tried hard to base my description in contemporary evidence rather than hearsay.

    THE LIFE and FAMILY of THOMAS NICHOLSON of ROUNDHAY PARK" © by Neville Hurworth

    From Oak Leaves, Part 1, Spring 2001 - published by Oakwood and District Historical Society [ODHS] "THE LIFE AND FAMILY OF THOMAS NICHOLSON OF ROUNDHAY PARK" © by Neville Hurworth Many thousands of visitors come to Roundhay Park each year to attend the several major events hosted annually by Leeds City Council such as music festivals and the November bonfire and fireworks display, or to enjoy the delights of the Tropical World and Canal Gardens. Others are simply content to stroll through the trees and round the Lakes, or to sit and admire the view in such pleasant surroundings as the Park offers in full measure all the year round. Some of these visitors may know that the Park was for many years part of the Roundhay estate of the Nicholson family. I suspect that very few of them though, will have heard of Thomas Nicholson (1764 -1821), who in the early 19th century, acquired this estate and created the main features of Roundhay Park as we know it today. Thomas Nicholson was a Quaker, born into a comfortable but none too wealthy clothier's family in Chapel Allerton. Although he died in Roundhay, he left Chapel Allerton in his early adult years for London where he married and lived for most of his life. Somehow, he found the means to set up as an insurance broker and merchant and acquired great wealth. In 1799 he bought an estate in Chapel Allerton which included Chapel Allerton Hall, and in 1803, along with another Quaker, Samuel Elam, he purchased the Roundhay Estate from Lord Stourton.

Can you also tell me the number of prosecutions there have been for the above offences and how many of those resulted in a conviction? Please see the attached document. West Yorkshire Police receive reports of crimes that have occurred following a victim having their drink spiked, crimes such as rape, sexual assault, violence with or without injury and theft. West Yorkshire Police take all offences seriously and will ensure that all reports are investigated. Specifically for victims of rape and serious sexual offences, depending on when the offence occurred, they would be offered an examination at our Sexual Assault Referral Centre, where forensic samples, including a blood sample for toxicology can be taken, with the victim’s consent, if within the timeframes and guidance from the Faculty for Forensic and Legal Medicine. West Yorkshire Police work with support agencies to ensure that all victims of crime are offered support through the criminal justice process, including specialist support such as from Independent Sexual Violence Advisors.

Main issues Leeds City Council is proposing to implement a Speed Limit Order on the A6120 Ring Road in the above mentioned electoral wards. The introduction of the A6120 Ring Road Cycle Superhighway, the proposed East Leeds Orbital Route (ELOR) Phase 3 Roundabout at Red Hall and a recent upgrade to the Roundhay Park Lane/Park Lane junction have all substantially changed the character of the stretch of road in question. The proposal is to reduce the current 60mph speed limit to 40mph, from a point approximately 40m east of The Pines to a point approximately 116m south of Elmete Lane. 2. Best Council Plan Implications (click here for the latest version of the Best Council Plan) Improving transport connections in terms of safety. 3. Resource Implications The estimated cost of implementing the associated Speed Limit Order is £7,500, subject to satisfactory completion of the advertising and making of the necessary Order. The scheme is to be funded by a Section 106 contribution associated with the ELOR Advanced Junctions Phase 1 works.
