  • The North York Moors Re-Visited
    The Yorkshire Archaeological & Historical Society The North York Moors Re-visited Anthony Silson BSc (Hons) MSc PGCE FRGS The North York Moors Re-visited Anthony Silson BSc (Hons) MSc PGCE FRGS Key words: physical environment; agricultural land use; rural settlement; services; tourism; transport; urban settlement. Thirty or so years ago, I wrote an essay about The North York Moors for the BBC Domesday Survey (Silson 1986). This new essay examines the extent to which changes have occurred since then. Shortly after the first article was published in1986, I was interested enough to do further field work on the area so some information used here is for 1985 and some for 1986. Likewise contemporary fieldwork was undertaken in both 2015 and 2016. The area allocated to me in 1985 excluded the eastern part of the region administered by The North York Moors National Park Authority, hereafter: NYMNPA, but included some peripheral areas administered by Hambleton and Ryedale District Councils. The same area is discussed in this essay, and the extent of the area is delimited in Figure 1. This essay is illustrated by plates located near the end. Figure 1 Morpholgical features of The North York Moors Physical Environment The North York Moors is a tectonically relatively stable inland area (Goudie 1990). Hence its morphology has scarcely had time to change in a mere thirty years. An example of a very small change has been the making of a small pond about two km to the east of Thirsk. But the major morphological contrasts continue to be controlled by lithological contrasts in underlying rocks (Straw and Clayton 1979).

  • Documentary Records of Floods in the Vale of Pickering
    Documentary records of floods in the Vale of Pickering These records are taken from the British Hydrological Society Chronology of Hydrological Events. As they are documentary records, their content is partly a function of the recording of events coupled to the extent to which documents have been found. However, they show a notable phenomenon, often found in other flood records, of a flood rich period in the late-nineteenth century followed by a flood poor period in the early 20 th century. There then follows the textual descriptions that accompanies each flood. Figure 1. Dates of documented flood records before 1950. Note that these are documented which means that they are not equivalent to the continual record of a water level recorder and reflect time-varying trends in the extent to which documents were recorded. 1750 1770 1790 1810 1830 1850 1870 1890 1910 1930 1950 " A sudden inundation of the river Rye happened at Helmsley in Yorkshire, such as had never been known by the oldest people in those parts, probably occasioned by the late heavy rains.Two houses were entirely washed away , the one inhabited by James Holdforth, he and his whole family drowned, except his wife, who being sick in her bed, was carried down the stream half a mile, and at last washed off into a field, where she was found the next morning very little hurt. The other house belonged to John Sunley, was also drowned, and all his family. In the whole thirteen persons.(sic) Two other houses were greatly damaged, as was also the stone bridge at the entrance to the town; fourteen hay-stacks were driven down the river a mile, on one of which was a half year old calf, who kept its footing, and was taken off alive.
