  • Part 1 Rea Ch Classifica Tion
    RIVER QUALITY SURVEY NATIONAL RIVERS AUTHORITY NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 PART 1 REA CH CLASSIFICA TION FRESHWATER RIVERS AND CANALS VERSION 1: AUGUST 1995 GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 \ NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION To allow the development of a National method of evaluating water quality, the rivers in all the NRA regions of England and Wales have been divided into reaches, which are numbered using a coding system based on the hydrological reference for each river basin. Each classified reach then has a chemistry sample point assigned to it and these sample points are regularly monitored for Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Dissolved oxygen (DO) and Total Ammonia. The summary statistics calculated from the results of this sampling are sent to a National Centre where the GQA Grades are calculated. A National report is produced and each region can then produce more detailed reports on the quality of their own rivers. For Northumbria and Yorkshire Region, this Regional Report has been divided into two parts. PARTI: REACH CLASSIFICATION This report contains a listing of the river reaches within the region, with their start and finish grid reference, approximate length, and the 1990 and 1994 GQA class for each reach. The reference code of the chemistry sample point used to classify the reach is also included. A sample point may classify several reaches if there are no major discharges or tributaries dividing those reaches. The sample point used to classify a reach may change and the classification is therefore calculated using the summary statistics for each sample point that has been used over the past three years.

  • Appendix A: Background Cultural Heritage Context
    Appendix A: Background Cultural Heritage Context Archaeological Sites The East Riding, and the c.980sqkm selected for the SEA Addendum study area, has been shaped by man’s activities over the past 10,000 years. As a result, the area contains a rich heritage of archaeological sites (both designated and non-designated), dating from the early prehistoric periods to the 20th century, which reflect the region’s varied social and economic history. The Prehistoric Periods (up to c.700 BC) The earliest phases of prehistoric occupation are generally characterised by an increasing exploitation of the natural landscape and its resources. Artefactual evidence suggests that there was a human presence in Holderness during the Palaeolithic period, and several sites have been identified within the River Hull corridor; one flint-working site at Brigham was excavated in 1962-63 in advance of gravel extraction. Climatic improvements after the Devensian ice age led to the re- establishment of forests, and plants and animals became available for exploitation. While Holderness saw some transient human activity in the later Mesolithic period (c.8300-4000 BC), there was also a significant population on the Wolds, centred on ‘activity areas’ associated with ponds and springs. The number and density of sites on the Wolds implies that this higher land was well-populated during the subsequent Neolithic period (c.4000-2500 BC). Although initially a pastoral society, the gradual introduction of grain crops resulted in a more widespread mixed agricultural regime. The construction of large communal burial mounds as well as other sacred or ritual sites, such as henges, cursus and mortuary enclosures, suggests that there was an organised, community-based society.

  • East Yorkshire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities
    East Yorkshire Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities second edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… With a foreword by The Hon. Mrs Susan Cunliffe-Lister, HM Lord-Lieutenant of the East Riding of Yorkshire This directory was put together by people with a disability for people with a disability, though the places and information included will be useful to anyone. With a wealth of hidden treasures, East Yorkshire is often referred to as ‘Britain’s best kept secret’. Savour its traditions, stately homes, stunning nature reserves and colourful seaside life. East Yorkshire has many claims to fame; did you know, for example, that Britain’s tallest man came from Market Weighton, and that Hull is home to England’s smallest window? For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside. By contacting Open Country or another of the organisations listed here, you can help to encourage better access for all in the future. Revised March 2015.
