We try to help and support the work done in the Museum and personally, I have thoroughly enjoyed being a volunteer and meeting so many visitors.

  • The Mines of Downholme Moor and Thorpe Edge, Swaledale” British Mining No.48, NMRS, Pp.22-30
    BRITISH MINING No.48 MEMOIRS 1993 Barker, J.L. 1993 “The Mines of Downholme Moor and Thorpe Edge, Swaledale” British Mining No.48, NMRS, pp.22-30 Published by the THE NORTHERN MINE RESEARCH SOCIETY SHEFFIELD U.K. © N.M.R.S. & The Author(s) 1993. ISSN 0309-2199 BRITISH MINING No.48 THE MINES OF DOWNHOLME MOOR AND THORPE EDGE, SWALEDALE. by J.L. Barker The mining fields of Downholme and Thorpe Edge, although in pastoral lower Swaledale, provide a bleak and windy aspect for much of the year. Part of the moor lies within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and this offers an element of protection for the mining remains. The whole terrain is now controlled by the Ministry of Defence (MoD) as a military training area, but the nature of this training is such that what remains of the mining activity is almost completely undamaged other than by the elements. These areas represent a relatively small mining field compared with those in upper Swaledale. Much of the land was owned by Coverham Abbey until the monastery was dissolved in 1537. Eventually, Downholme Moor passed to Lord Bolton of Wensleydale and Thorpe Edge to D’Arcy Hutton of Marske. In 1927 Downholme Moor and Thorpe Edge were bought by the MoD from their respective owners. A further purchase of part of Downholme village was completed in 1931. Visual and documentary sources show that only four important veins were explored and these appear to be only a few hundred yards long. Most of the ore was mined in the Main Limestone and in the Richmond Cherts above.

  • Richmondshire District Council Does Not Currently Meet the Criteria for Electoral Inequality Ie
    District Ward Boundary Review Richmondshire District Council Stage One - Council Size Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (April 2017) 1 Introduction The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) is an independent body that is responsible for conducting boundary and electoral reviews of principal authorities in England. Richmondshire District Council does not currently meet the criteria for electoral inequality ie. 30% of wards having a variance greater than +/- 10% of the average electorate per Member, however this threshold is likely to be reached in the very near future. As a result the Council decided in July 2016 to request the LGBCE to undertake an electoral review. This request was accepted and the review was included in their programme. The electoral review will examine whether the boundaries of wards within the local authority area need to be altered to ensure fair representation at the local government elections. In Richmondshire it has been identified that six of the twenty four wards have imbalances. The table below sets out the current imbalances in the District. No (%) Number of wards (>10%) 5 Number of wards (>20%) 0 Number of wards (>30%) 1 The Wards with the above variances are: (%) Brompton-on-Swale & Scorton 11% Hipswell 12% Hornby Castle 29% Middleton Tyas -14% Scotton -12% Swaledale -11% The main reasons for the electoral inequality arises from new housing developments, under registration of service personnel and population changes, the detail of which will be explained in the following sections. North Yorkshire County Council is not within the LGBCE programme for review and the County Council have indicated they will not be requesting a review of the County Divisions.

It is separated from the North Pennines by the Stainmore Trough faults and from the more industrialised South Pennines by the Craven Faults. Just 0.3% of the area is urban, 4% is woodland, and 26% is upland grazing. 71% of the area falls within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and 17% within the Nidderdale AONB. 30% of the area is designated as SSSI.

  • Marrick Priory, Swaledale, North Yorkshire: Papers Relating to the Estate, Mainly in the Post- Medieval Period
    Title: Marrick Priory, Swaledale, North Yorkshire: papers relating to the estate, mainly in the post- medieval period Reference No: GB 206 Brotherton Collection Marrick Priory Dates of creation 1170-1812 Name of Creator: Marrick Priory estates Language: Latin, English Administrative History: The remote manor of Marrick in Swaledale, North Yorkshire, was most notable for centuries for the mining of lead in its vicinity which was being undertaken by the time of the Norman conquest. A document authored by Roger de Aske to Roger, Archbishop of York, records the foundation of Marrick Priory as a priory for Benedictine nuns between 1154 and 1158, and there is evidence that it was substantially supported by income deriving from the local lead mines. In 1540 the Priory's closure was brought about by Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries when the prioress and 16 nuns were evicted. It was leased and then purchased by Sir John Uvedale, also known as Sir John Woodhall, former secretary to Anne Boleyn, and then secretary of the council of the North. Ownership passed to Sir Timothy, Hutton of Marske in 1592. It was subsequently sold to the Blackburn family of Blackburn Hall by his son Matthew in 1633. A complex history of changing ownership of the surrounding lands continued until the nineteenth century decline of lead production in the area and the consequent decline on population. The church itself was abandoned after the end of the Second World War. It subsequently became an outdoor activity and residential centre. Scope and Content: arranged by period of ownership and comprises section1 Stapleton (13thc- 19th C) – 257 documents; section 2 Marrick Priory (1170-1538) – 20 documents; section 3 Uvedale (1540-1592) - 100 documents; Brackenbury Hutton Purchase (1589-1599) - 13 documents; and Blackburne (1596-1743) - 530 documents.
