  • Heritage at Risk Register
    CASTLE HOWARD MAUSOLEUM Castle Howard Estate, Ryedale, North Yorkshire The Mausoleum, by Hawksmoor, 1729-42, and modelled on the tomb of Metella, is a major feature of the Howardian Hills. Situated on a bluff east of Castle Howard. The columns were repaired with a grant in the 1980s. The entablature and bastions continue to decay. Much of the damage is due to rusting cramps. The staircase balustrade is collapsing. 304 HERITAGE AT RISK YORKSHIRE & THE HUMBER 305 Y&H HERITAGE AT RISK 2008 Of the 176 entries on the baseline 1999 Yorkshire and the Humber buildings at risk register, 91(52%) have now been removed. Although this is 6% higher than the regional average for 2008, our rate of progress is slowing. Of the five entries removed this year, only one was on the 1999 register. This is because the core of buildings remaining from the 1999 register are either scheduled monuments with no obvious use, or buildings with a problematic future that require a strategic re-think to provide a viable solution. Despite these problems, we are continuing to work with owners, local authorities, trusts and other funding bodies to try to secure the long-term future of these buildings and structures. Just over half (52%) of the regional grants budget (almost £500,000) was offered to eleven buildings at risk in the last financial year. There are four new entries this year: in North Yorkshire, St Leonard’s Church at Sand Hutton, and in West Yorkshire, Hopton Congregational Church in Mirfield,Westwood Mills at Linthwaite, and Stank Hall near Leeds.This gives a total of 122 Grade I and II* listed buildings and scheduled monuments at risk entries on the Yorkshire and the Humber register.

  • Car Parking Charges for the Station, Richmond Swimming
    CAR PARKING CHARGES FOR THE STATION, RICHMOND SWIMMING POOL AND GYM CUSTOMERS ARE ON THE WAY; HOWEVER, YOU CAN MAKE THEM FAIRER IF YOU ACT IMMEDIATELY BY EXPRESSING YOUR VIEWS Richmondshire District Council is proposing to introduce car parking charges in The Station Yard Car Park this spring. We understand that the ticket machines have been ordered . This car park is currently used by customers of The Station, Richmond Swimming Pool and Liberty Gym. All of these buildings and the activities which take place in them are organised and maintained through the efforts of two local volunteer-led charities: The Station – Is operated by The Richmondshire Building Preservation Trust The Pool and Gym – Are operated by the Richmond Leisure Trust If you regularly use these ‘much loved’ charity-run-facilities , and choose to park your vehicle in the council owned Station Yard Car Park, you will shortly be charged for your visit. The charities that operate these facilities believe that what is being proposed will have an immediate and detrimental impact on these community amenities which are run on a ‘not-for profit’ basis - and could ultimately force them to close. The local authority appear to have little or no relevant research on which to justify their position. Your help is needed NOW to ensure that the views of people like you, who value The Station, pool and gym, to make your voices heard on this critical issue by writing to or phoning your district councillor, if you live in Richmondshire or writing to the head of the local authority if you don't.

  • Coverdale and Wensleydale
    The Kiplings of Coverdale and Wensleydale In 1570, the chancery patent rolls record a “pardon for John Kipling of Scrafton, County York, and Reginald Kiplinge of Hudswell for all treasons, rebellions, etc committed between 1st November 11 Elizabeth and the 31st January following on reports of their penitence for their part in the Rebellion of the North testified before Commissioners of the Queen”. (West) Scrafton is in the parish of Coverham in Coverdale, which is itself a branch of Wensleydale. In 1592, John Kipling died and a commission was issued to Thomas Stevenson, the curate of Coverham, to administer an oath to his widow, Ann, to administer his estate. Unfortunately, Coverham parish records only survive from 1707, so nothing is known of the family after this until, in 1673, a Thomas Kipling paid tax on one hearth at West Scrafton. Thomas Kipling died in 1691 and his son John was appointed administrator. An inventory was prepared, showing limited possessions but £20 in bills and bonds. John married Ruth Stoney in 1706, as the following licence and register entry show. 1706 East Witton Widow Jane Kipling of West Scrafton died in 1709. She left all her estate to her own (Thompson) family apart from nominal legacies to two Kipling relatives. It’s unclear exactly how Thomas, his son John, Jane and the two Johns she names relate to each other. In 1737 there was a bill in chancery (C11/365/26 Coates v Kipling) by the Dean of Middleham against… .. (Braithwaite being slightly lower down Coverdale than West Scrafton in the parish of East Witton) for non-payment of tythes in respect of crops gathered and animals pastured on land.

I think there are many reasons why it is unwise to accept 5G modernisation at the cost of the world class Yorkshire Dales. Here are a few: 1) Economically - the business cases I've viewed about the benefits to do with IoT does simply not stack up in having a meaningful benefit to our communities. Faster internet yes - see next point: 2) Technically - fibre optic would be hugely preferable as a solution to faster internet - due to speed and precision with no visual collateral. 3) Aesthetically - I would hope that individuals responsible for stewarding the Yorkshire Dales are conscious of how rare a landscape they are able to either preserve or change. 4)Environmentally - I think the effect on pollinators and species (not to mention humans) seems to be relatively unquantified. Therefore in light of the other areas, there is no reason to bring this risk to our community. I realise that it must be a hard decision - but please scrutinise your motives in this area.

Middleham was designated as a Conservation Area in 1973. Local Planning Authorities are required to “formulate and publish proposals for the preservation and enhancement of any parts of their area, which are conservation areas” (Section 71 of the Act). This character appraisal and management plan fulfils that duty. In making a decision on an application for development in a Conservation Area, “special attention shall be paid to the desirability of preserving and enhancing the character or appearance of that area” (Section 72 of the Act). While this should ensure that harmful change is not allowed, some changes, not normally requiring planning permission (known as permitted development) could still damage the special qualities of the area. Local Authorities have special powers to issue directions removing certain permitted development rights from properties if it can be shown that it is necessary.

Please email [email protected] if you would like to be added to the mailing list. THE GATE OF THE YEAR by Minnie Louise Haskins And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year: “Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.” And he replied: “Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the Hand of God. That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way.” So I went forth, and finding the Hand of God, trod gladly into the night. And He led me towards the hills and the breaking of day in the lone East. George VI read this as part of his Christmas address in 1939. Though World War II had started, no one knew what 1940 would bring. Among other things the Battle of Britain would rage in the skies, and rationing would be introduced. As we stood at the gate of 2020, few of us would have imagined the year we’ve had. As we stand at the gate of 2021, we are hopeful of a vaccine for Covid-19, but we don’t know what the year will bring, personally, nationally or internationally. The person in the poem who stands at the gate of the year, wants to know what is going to happen – they ask for a light so that they can see.

Quiet roads, great scenery and four classic climbs. 1. Turn left out of the car park, down over the river and up to a T-junction. Turn right signed Kettlewell and follow this road all the way up Wharfedale passing through Kettlewell, Starbotton and Buckden. 2. Climb over Kidstones Pass then down a narrow twisty descent into Bishopdale. Easy run down the valley past the Street Head Inn and on to West Burton. After tight right- left bend, turn left signed ‘Aysgarth light vehicles only’. 3. At T-junction turn left, then shortly after turn right signed to Aysgarth Falls (the Tour is likely to stay on the main road but this alternative is on a quieter parallel road). Cross over the river with a view of the Upper Falls and up to a T-junction. 4. Turn left signed Hardraw and head up Wensleydale for 8 miles. Through Askrigg and keep on this road, ignoring the first turn-off to Hawes. Go past a second turn to Hawes (good place for refreshments if needed) and then turn right signed Muker via Buttertubs. 5. Up and over Buttertubs and fast descent to T-junction. Turn right down Swaledale and follow road down valley through Muker, Gunnerside, Low Row and Reeth.

  • Hannah Johnson Née Halliday, Ward
    Hannah Johnson née Halliday, Ward (b. 1815 – d. 1881) Marie-Anne Hintze Hannah Ward, a widow, who gave her age as 51, married Thomas Johnson, a labourer aged 70 in Ripon Cathedral on 15 December 1868 (1). They both signed the register with their mark. She gave her place of residence as Mickley, Thomas resided at North Stainley and the bride and groom's fathers are named in the register as Peter Johnson, shoemaker and James Holliday, butcher. Both parties had been married before: Thomas, baptised in Ripon Cathedral in 1791 (2), had married Mary Atkinson of Sawley in Ripon Cathedral on 24 November 1817 (3). Their first child, Ann, was born the following year at Mickley but the family obviously moved to North Stainley shortly thereafter for her five siblings were born there. Mary Johnson died in 1868 and Thomas married Hannah Ward the same year. In the North Stainley census for 1871, Thomas is listed as head of the household, an agricultural labourer, aged 74, and his wife Hannah, is stated to be 60 years old and classed as a labourer's wife (4). At some point, he left North Stainley and died in the Ripon Workhouse (5). It is not known whether Hannah moved to the workhouse at the same time, but she was there at the time of the 1881 census, and her occupation is stated to be' former charwoman' (6). She died later that year on 31 August. Her burial took place at Ripon Cathedral on 2 September 1881 (7). Hannah Johnson was born Hannah Halliday and was baptised as an Anglican on 30 April 1815, in the parish of Hartwith in Nidderdale (8).
