North Riding)
YORKSHIRE (North Riding) and The City of YORK The North Riding is one of the three ancient divisions of Yorkshire, each of which functioned as an autonomous administrative unit. It was bordered to the south by the West and East Ridings, to the east by the North Sea, to the north by Durham, and to the west by Westmorland. The City of York was a county corporate, not regarded as part of any Riding, but in the local government reforms of 1974 it was joined with the North Riding to form part of the new administrative county of North Yorkshire. In 1835 the Riding appointed inspectors for 16 petty sessional divisions, and this arrangement continued until 1858 when the police force took over. Qualified inspectors were not appointed until 1901, and all of them were also police officers until 1933. The chief constable remained in charge until 1949, when the first civilian chief inspector was appointed. The ancient boroughs of Richmond and Scarborough were constituted as Municipal Boroughs in 1835 and they had separate jurisdiction over weights and measures. Middlesbrough grew rapidly in the middle of the nineteenth century, and it became a Weights and Measures Authority in 1857 and a County Borough in 1889. The City of York remained a separate authority until 1974. There are few records of specialist scale and weight makers before the 1890s, when they began to appear in York and Middlesbrough. 1 A1: Inspection by the County of YORKSHIRE (North Riding) Dates Events Marks Comments 1825 One set of standards [63] There were 13 wapentakes. -

Kirkby Hall Park and Garden Historic
YORKSHIRE GARDENS TRUST Hambleton District Historic Designed Landscapes Project Kirkby Hall Park and Garden Report by Gail Falkingham [December 2019] CORE DATA 1.1 Name of site: Kirkby Hall Park and Garden 1.2 Grid reference: SE 280 958 1.3 Administrative area: Kirkby Fleetham with Fencote Civil Parish and Killerby Civil Parish, Hambleton District, North Yorkshire County (modern), North Riding of Yorkshire County, Hang East Wapentake (historic). 1.4 Current site designation: Not on the Historic England Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Interest. 2. SUMMARY OF HISTORIC INTEREST The Kirkby Hall estate lies on a large, open plateau overlooking the River Swale to the east. It comprised an 18th-century designed landscape with a long, narrow woodland terrace and garden buildings, landscape park, lake, stream and pleasure grounds. The present house is a mid- to late- 18th-century Georgian mansion, lying adjacent to St Mary’s Church. Purchased in 1724 by William Aislabie, who also developed the landscapes at Studley Royal, Hackfall (both Grade I on the Historic England Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Interest), and Laver Banks, Kirkby Hall is one of the earliest examples of his work. Much of the related archive material no longer survives. However, 1 from accounts and letters in the Vyner Papers held by the West Yorkshire Archive Service dating between 1742 and 1760, it is possible to gain some idea of the nature and date of the works that were undertaken. The garden buildings no longer survive, there has been additional tree planting and areas of the former park are now under arable cultivation.
