Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes
Malhamdale and Southern/South Western Dales Fringes + Physical Influences Malhamdale The landscape of Malhamdale is dominated by the influence of limestone, and includes some of the most spectacular examples of this type of scenery within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and within the United Kingdom as a whole. Great Scar limestone dominates the scenery around Malham, attaining a thickness of over 200m. It was formed in the Carboniferous period, some 330 million years ago, by the slow deposition of shell debris and chemical precipitates on the floor of a shallow tropical sea. The presence of faultlines creates dramatic variations in the scenery. South of Malham Tarn is the North Craven Fault, and Malham Cove and Gordale Scar, two miles to the south, were formed by the Mid Craven Fault. Easy erosion of the softer shale rocks to the south of the latter fault has created a sharp southern edge to the limestone plateau north of the fault. This step in the landscape was further developed by erosion during the various ice ages when glaciers flowing from the north deepened the basin where the tarn now stands and scoured the rock surface between the tarn and the village, leading later to the formation of limestone pavements. Glacial meltwater carved out the Watlowes dry valley above the cove. There are a number of theories as to the formation of the vertical wall of limestone that forms Malham Cove, whose origins appear to be in a combination of erosion by ice, water and underground water. It is thought that water pouring down the Watlowes valley would have cascaded over the cove and cut the waterfall back about 600 metres from the faultline, although this does not explain why the cove is wider than the valley above.

Parish of Kirkby Malghdale*
2 44 HISTORY OF CRAVEX. PARISH OF KIRKBY MALGHDALE* [HIS parish, at the time of the Domesday Survey, consisted of the townships or manors of Malgum (now Malham), Chirchebi, Oterburne, Airtone, Scotorp, and Caltun. Of these Malgum alone was of the original fee of W. de Perci; the rest were included in the Terra Rogeri Pictaviensis. Malgum was sur veyed, together with Swindene, Helgefelt, and Conningstone, making in all xn| car. and Chircheby n car. under Giggleswick, of which it was a member. The rest are given as follows :— 55 In Otreburne Gamelbar . in car ad glct. 55 In Airtone . Arnebrand . mi . car ad glct. 55 In Scotorp Archil 7 Orm . in . car ad glct. •ii T "i 55 In Caltun . Gospal 7 Glumer . mi . car ad giet. Erneis habuit. [fj m . e in castell Rog.f This last observation applies to Calton alone. The castellate of Roger, I have already proved to be that of Clitheroe; Calton, therefore, in the reign of the Conqueror, was a member of the honour of Clitheroe. But as Roger of Poitou, soon after this time, alienated all his possessions in Craven (with one or two trifling exceptions) to the Percies, the whole parish, from the time of that alienation to the present, has constituted part of the Percy fee, now belonging to his Grace the Duke of Devonshire. \ [* The parish of Kirkby: in-Malham-Dale, as it is now called, contains the townships of Kirkby-Malham, Otterburn, Airton, Scosthrop, Calton, Hanlith, Malham Moor, and Malham. The area, according to the Ordnance Survey, is -3,777 a- i r- 3- P- In '871 the population of the parish was found to be 930 persons, living in 183 houses.] [f Manor.—In Otreburne (Otterburn) Gamelbar had three carucates to be taxed.

The Need for Entry-Level Affordable Homes in Craven
The need for entry-level affordable homes in Craven August 2020 1.0 Introduction 1.1 The concept of entry-level exception sites was introduced in the 2018 National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). Paragraph 71 of the current NPPF states that, subject to compliance with certain tests: “Local planning authorities should support the development of entry-level exception sites, suitable for first time buyers (or those looking to rent their first home), unless the need for such homes is already being met within the authority’s area…….” 1.2 As stated in the NPPF housing on these sites must be affordable for those whose needs are not met by the market. This report identifies whether or not the need for entry level affordable housing in Craven District is being met by the housing provisions of the Craven and Yorkshire Dales National Park Local Plans. This requires three stages of work to be undertaken. The first will draw upon the results of the Craven Strategic Housing Market Assessment (2017) (SHMA) to estimate the total need for entry-level affordable housing in Craven District up to 2032. 1.3 The second stage of work will draw upon housing supply data from this Council and the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority to estimate the likely delivery of entry-level affordable housing up to 2032. (Housing data from both authorities is required so that the area of need matches that of the supply.) The SHMA identifies housing need across the whole of Craven District. The northern part of Craven District lies within the Yorkshire Dales National Park where the Park Authority, as a separate local planning authority, maintains its own data on housing supply and has adopted its own local plan.

Brochure for the Proposed Upper Aire Benefice of Gargrave, Coniston Cold and Kirkby in Malhamdale
BROCHURE FOR THE PROPOSED UPPER AIRE BENEFICE OF GARGRAVE, CONISTON COLD AND KIRKBY IN MALHAMDALE PRIEST-IN-CHARGE THE BENEFICE OF GARGRAVE, CONISTON COLD AND KIRKBY IN MALHAMDALE The Anglican Diocese of Leeds comprises five Episcopal Areas, each coterminous with an Archdeaconry. This is now one of the largest dioceses in the country, and its creation is unprecedented in the history of the Church of England. It covers an area of around 2,425 square miles, and a population of around 2,642,400 people. The three former dioceses were created in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to cater for massive population changes brought about by industrialisation and, later, mass immigration. The dio- cese comprises major cities (Bradford, Leeds, Wakefield), large industrial and post-industrial towns (Halifax, Huddersfield, Dewsbury), market towns (Harrogate, Skipton, Ripon, Richmond and Wetherby), and deeply rural areas (the Dales). The whole of life is here, along with all the richness, di- versity and complexities of a changing world. The Diocesan Bishop (The Rt Rev’d Nick Baines) is assisted by five Area Bishops (Bradford, Hudders- field, Kirkstall, Wakefield and Ripon), and five archdeacons (Bradford, Halifax, Leeds, Pontefract, Rich- mond & Craven). Our vision as the Diocese is about confident clergy equipping confident Christians to live and tell the good news of Jesus Christ. For all of our appointments we are seeking clergy who have a joyful and confident faith which has inspired a track record of church growth, both numerically and spiritually. 2 THE BENEFICE The proposed Upper Aire Benefice comprises three parishes in the Ripon Episcopal Area, part of the Bowland and Ewecross Deanery.

Barn Adjacent to Manor House Farm, Paythorne
BARN ADJACENT TO MANOR HOUSE FARM, PAYTHORNE Preliminary Roost Assessment (European Protected Species) Barn adjacent to Manor House Farm, Paythorne, Clitheroe Survey date: 14/03/2018 Introduction Since 2008 bats have been included in the list of UK Biodiversity Indicators which aim to show the response of species to the pressures, changes and threats to our natural and built environment. The Local Planning Authority is required to take account of the impact of a development on protected species in accordance with current planning policy (National Planning Policy Framework). A preliminary roost assessment was undertaken by David Fisher, EED Surveys (Licenced surveyor) at the request of Ian Swain (WBW Surveyors Ltd). Scoping surveys may be undertaken during daylight hours at any time of year and are not dependent on whether bats or wild birds are active at the time of the site visit. The survey includes inspection of all external and internal features looking for evidence of roosting, perching and feeding or flight activity by bats. The principle aim of the survey is to determine the presence of European Protected Species and to establish whether bats, barn owls and other wild birds such as barn swallows, swifts and house martins have roosted / nested within any part of the building that is likely to be affected by the proposed development. Ribble Valley Borough Council requires an appraisal of the likely impact of the proposed development on all bat species and other protected species that are present or likely to be present at the site, in addition to any mitigation, compensation and enhancement works that may be necessary before any works are undertaken.

Tales from Dalesrail
Tales from DalesRail A great walk from Hellifield By John Barnes (& Jessica Lofthouse) DalesRail may not be operating in 2020 but that doesn’t stop us sharing our many interesting experiences about our journeys. We hope you will share your interesting stories, favourite walks, fascinating anecdotes and pictures about DalesRail. Please send them to [email protected] or Simon Clarke at [email protected]. Maps: Ordnance Survey Explorer OL41 – Forest of Bowland and Ribblesdale Ordnance Survey Explorer OL2 – Yorkshire Dales Southern & Western areas. Hellifield is the first port of call on the Leeds – Carlisle railway for the Lancashire DalesRail service. In days gone by Hellifield existed for cattle and cattle dealers as well as for trains and railway workers and is much older than a first glance would indicate. This is how Jessica Lofthouse described the countryside and places around Hellifield (edited): John Ogilby in his map shows the way to Settle as crossing a moor. No road could be less like a moor than the modern highway, but the old coach road from Town Head at Long Preston climbed to the wild heights of Hunter Bark and dropped even more steeply into Settle. It is quite the best pedestrian way. I find it irresistible. I forgot I had intended to take the train to Settle. A green grass-grown way it is, open to the flax-coloured bents and miles of heather covered fells. The Craven old way of the Romans, the invading route of Angles and Danes penetrating from the Aire Gap, the drove road of shepherds and cattle men from Scotland, the only coach road for centuries, and still used by countryfolk to avoid tolls long after the lower turnpike road was made.
