Mortimer 2 Chair's Letter Thank you to everyone who helped our big fundraising effort at The Summer Fair at St Crux, particularly everyone who staffed stalls and the refreshment area and to those who provided delicious jam, beautifully handcrafted items and books and other objects to sell. In particular I wish to warmly thank Jenny Denton for many years organising and leading excellent day trips with her husband Peter and sadly on her own over the last few months. We are really lucky to have had Jenny’s input and leadership and we wish her well in the future. We know that anyone willing to take up the baton from her will have Jenny’s advice and support. Our committees have worked hard providing enjoyable day trips, full day walks, talks, the Garden Party and other events. However we are now at a crucial moment for the Association where we do need more members to volunteer to help with all these activities if we are to continue to flourish. All three committees have members and office holders retiring this year so please do not be shy in coming forward; you are really needed and will be warmly welcomed by each committee. The committee chair’s details are on page 2 or contact myself; we are happy to have an informal discussion with you without any obligation. As we don’t have a YANT office please can you mention you are a YANT member at the beginning of the call when you phone any of us? The contact numbers are home numbers. It makes life easier for those of us who are active in several organisations. The new number for day trips, mystery tour, etc. is 07852 163013 We have lots of exciting events for you this autumn including talks on Saturday afternoons at Friends’ Meeting House to which you are encouraged to bring your friends and neighbours. Also enclosed are details of the 2020 holiday programme. The NT shop is offering us another shopping evening in November – see page 15. I look forward to meeting you at many of these events throughout the autumn. Catherine Brophy Chair 3 Membership At present we have 586 members and are pleased to have welcomed the following to membership over the past three months: Christine Jarratt Mike Day Teresa Mikola Elinor Bailey, Membership Secretary Talks Talks are held at the Friends’ Meeting House in Friargate on Saturdays, starting at 2.30pm, lasting for about 45 minutes, with time for questions afterwards. Below are the synopses of the October and November talks. Remember non-members of YANT are welcome to attend so please bring relatives, friends and neighbours. The charge of £4 is to cover room and equipment hire. Roger King, Talks Organiser 19th October, Neil Sanderson, “A Day in the Life of York Minster” As we travel through a single day, we will look at the amazing variety of activities and events which take place in and around the precinct of York Minster. From being a house of prayer, worship and sacred music, to one of the countries most visited attractions, where people discover history and architecture in both vast and intimate spaces. From a place of learning and study to a place where traditional skills are shared and preserved, a place where some of the country's finest architecture is lovingly protected and restored. From a place where people are entertained to a place where the seasons of the year are marked as they have been for centuries. Hopefully you will learn that York Minster is a place for everyone. 4 16th November, Patrick Eyres, “Humphry Repton in Yorkshire” During the Napoleonic Wars, Repton (1752-1818) was Britain’s leading landscape gardener. He is renowned for inventing the Red Book as a means of presenting his ideas. Each one is a unique artwork that contains handwritten proposals, illustrated with ingeniously theatrical before-and-after watercolours. This overview will focus on the six surviving Red Books created for Yorkshire aristocrats, gentry and industrialists. 2020 Talks. Further details in the December Newsletter starting with: 18th January, Glennis Whyte “The Determined Ladies of Minster Yard” Mystery Tour PLACES STILL AVAILABLE Tuesday 10th September This year we will be approaching our destination by a route that you will almost certainly not know.

Elizabeth Hjort 5 History Wardrobe Presents: ALL WRITERS GREAT AND SMALL Friday 1st November 7pm at St Edwards Community Hall, Tadcaster Road, York YO24 1GG A celebration of Yorkshire authors, from the Brontës to James Herriot, (and a lot of other good ones in between). Historian Lucy Adlington links costumes and stories in this lively literary show featuring many favourite writers, poets and dramatists. Lucy Adlington at Middlethorpe Hall © History Wardrobe Booking form enclosed with this newsletter. Tickets, including wine or juice, £15. Please book by 18th October and note that parking here is limited. 6 Social and Fundraising Events The St Crux Summer Fair was a successful fund raising event, which raised £761 for the NT wish list of projects. We were grateful to members who supported the event by staffing the stalls, helping with refreshments as well as making or collecting items to sell. If we are to organise another of these events in the future, we will need to recruit more committee members for all three committees who together organise this event. We would appreciate any ideas members have for enjoyable fundraising activities. We had a sunny August day for the Garden Party at Goddards. This was an enjoyable occasion for those members who attended and thanks to the Projects Group Committee for providing a delicious tea. On November 1st we welcome back the History Wardrobe with their presentation on “All Writers Great and Small”. At this celebration of Yorkshire authors we will also hold a Yorkshire raffle, as well as providing wine or juice and nibbles. More details above on page 6 and the enclosed booking form. On November 30th there is the Winter Coffee morning – see details below. We do hope to see many of you at future events. Christine Truman, Chairman Projects Group Winter Coffee Morning Saturday 30th November 10am to 12pm at St Edward’s Church Community Hall, Dringhouses, York YO24 1GG There will be a couple of stalls and a raffle so please do pop along and support this fund-raising event. Limited car parking, but on bus routes 4, 13 and the “Coastliner” and not far from the “Park and Ride”, Askham Bar. 7 Day Trips Haddon Hall Christmas Trip - Thursday, 12th December After a gap of 10 years we are returning to Haddon Hall, Derbyshire for our Christmas trip. The Hall dates from the 12th to 17th centuries. It is a Grade 1* listed building, built on a limestone bluff above the valley of the River Wye. Because of the nature of the site there are many different levels within the house itself. The ground floor is mainly flag stones, which have a worn, uneven surface. Care and attention must be paid especially in doorways which, because of changing floor levels, means there are small steps between rooms. The upper storey has wooden floors with floor coverings. Every effort has been made to aid visitors to see as much of the hall as possible, but access for visitors with disabilities is very restricted. The restaurant is reached by 10 steps with a handrail. The coach park is situated on the opposite side of the A6 road from the house and grounds. The distance between the coach park and the house entrance is approximately 400 metres and includes some gravel surface and 30 steps. There is a buggy available to transport the less mobile from the gatehouse, which is on the opposite side of the A6 road from the coach park, but because the buggy is not taxed to travel on public highways the A6 has to be crossed by all visitors. Please indicate on the booking form if you would like to use this facility. The cost is £45 per person to include coach hire, entrance charge, two course Christmas lunch and coffee/tea and gratuities.

  • Thornton House 64 Copmanthorpe Lane Bishopthorpe York YO23 2RS
    Thornton House 64 Copmanthorpe Lane Bishopthorpe York YO23 2RS Guide Price: £850,000 A large detached house with lovely grounds in a semi-rural position at the edge of Bishopthorpe village. Opportunities to buy properties towards the top end of the market in Bishopthorpe are few and far between. Thornton House offers significant living space, set within a plot of approximately 1/3 acre, positioned at the end of a quiet lane and with lovely views across farmland. The house benefits from wood double-glazed windows and gas central heating, but we estimate that the kitchen and bathrooms were installed in the 1990s and so would benefit from refurbishment. At one stage, part of the ground floor (study, bedroom 6 and wet room) were set up to be partially self-contained for a dependent relative and this space would lend itself to use in a similar way if required. GROUND FLOOR Entry to the house is via a large entrance hall, with coat cupboard, staircase and guest WC. Doors lead to the dining room, sitting room with fireplace, and kitchen with breakfast area, oak-fronted units, granite worktops and doors to the rear. There is also a separate utility room, off the kitchen, plus another section of the house leading to the study (which could be a small living room) with fireplace, leading to bedroom 6 and wet room. FIRST FLOOR From the landing (which has useful cupboards), there are doors to the master bedroom suite which is frankly enormous and could easily be divided into 2 doubles. It has significant built-in wardrobe space and an ensuite bathroom, together with several large windows offering splendid views over farmland on one side and the gardens on the other.

    Appendix C: Worked example of integrating services: Tadcaster Road/ Askham Bar Corridor. Methodology Figure C.1 shows the methodology used for this test Identify services in scope: - Frequency - Runtimes - Ticket prices Interpret occupancy data from surveys – allocate passengers to boarding before/ after site Calculate current generalised journey times (GJT) and costs Change service pattern: - Reduce park and ride buses - Change fares Output: Calculate changes Calcula te new GJTs to operating costs and bus movements through city centre Assess change to GJTs and Output: Calculate change to patronage costs and benefits to passengers Discussing each stage in turn for a worked example of Tadcaster Road. Identifying Services in scope Figure C.2 shows the services in scope for the exercise. For a service to be considered “in-scope” it has to follow the route of the existing park and ride service between the city centre and park and ride site. In some cases, services might make small diversions off the main route, but have to be broadly parallel and not suffer a significant journey time penalty in comparison to services on the same route as the park and ride (e.g. no more than 3 minutes end to end).

  • October 2015
    Copmanthorpe Methodist Church www.copmanthorpemethodist.org.uk Churches Together in Copmanthorpe LEP Newsletter – October 2015 Last month I quoted from Luke 9:62, Jesus said, “No-one who puts a hand to the plough and looks back is fit for the Kingdom of God”, and again I repeated it at the church Council meeting on 23 September. This time being reminded of the mess that a plough makes as it drives forward digging up soil, unearthing buried and perhaps hidden or forgotten objects, but generally making a mess as it has to dig down and cast out before any sowing can be done. The church council passed the proposals for a new audio visual system, which will give us exciting opportunities for new ways of outreach and mission in to our community, enable the youngsters who come on to our premises to enjoy better facilities upstairs, give us more worshipping diversity, as well as enabling the cinema group to improve the experience for those who buy tickets to enjoy a film with their families in the company of friends in the village. There is a rough illustration and more details about it further on. But it will be a time of disruption as the sound company come in and we get used to new seating arrangements and learn how the new system operates, but we look forward to the future. The Church Council have taken a risk in committing to a spend of over £20,000 when we only have half the money available, with the rest made up of interest free loans from generous church members.
