A study has shown that such-and- such a change in policing seems to have had an effect on some particular crime figures. A new piece of engine technology is expected to cut emissions by so many per cent — and so on. Very often outcomes are expressed in money terms: how they affect the ‘bottom line’. Things connected with faith, mission and ministry don’t lend themselves to being measured in those ways. Yes, I know, we can count people at church services, and we can read the annual accounts.

As a resident of The Wolds, I may be biased in considering that it is a very special and beautiful place at any time of the year but especially in @woldsvalleywarbler spring. I along with many others, have long since thought it should be an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). To further this aspiration, I have drafted a motion to be considered before the next full council to offer full support to East Riding Council in their bid to get The Wolds recognised as such an area. If the bid is successful it will have many benefits, not least protecting the environment while supporting the local economy.

The PC had promptly submitted the application, which the developer eventually did not oppose, given the strength of public opinion and the evidence submitted. 2.4 The application at Burniston, Scarborough, noted as being rejected, was actually resolved by a Creation Agreement for the currently used section of the claimed route. 2.5 The remaining 2 applications were rejected due to the limited evidence provided. The application for the BOAT at Thornton Dale was also affected by the Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act, so could not have achieved BOAT status, the route was already recorded - 1 - NYCC – 17.02.2011 – LAF DMMO & Public Path Order Applics - Update as a bridleway.

  • Subverting the Ground: Private Property and Public Protest in the Sixteenth-Century Yorkshire Wolds*
    Subverting the ground: private property and public protest in the sixteenth-century Yorkshire Wolds* by Briony A. K. McDonagh Abstract As a forum for litigating property disputes, the Star Chamber left records that provide crucial evidence for investigating the way people understood and experienced the landscape around them at precisely the time that the modern concept of property in land was emerging. Using cases from the Yorkshire Wolds, the paper explores the roles litigation, direct action and riots played in both asserting and subverting property interests, with the aim of reclaiming something of the materiality of the events reported in the court. Particular attention is paid to two key practices by which enclosure and common rights could be negotiated ‘on the ground’: that is, by grazing animals on the common fields or closes and by ploughing up – or subverting – grassland. This paper uses the Star Chamber archive to explore land disputes and the meaning – and making – of private property in the sixteenth-century Yorkshire Wolds. It offers a ‘pre-history’ of enclosure in a county where research has typically focused on the parliamentary enclosures of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.1 Yet the sixteenth century was a key period of change and the suits brought before the court shed considerable light on the roles litigation, collective action and riots played in articulating title to land and negotiating common rights. Named after the painted ceiling of the room in which it was held at Westminster, the Star Chamber was one of the central equity courts, and emerged as a separate court of law in the early sixteenth century.
