  • Roman York: from the Core to the Periphery
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE WORLD CLASS HERITAGE CONFERENCE, 2011 Sponsored by York Archaeological Forum Roman York, from the Core to the Periphery: an Introduction to the Big Picture Patrick Ottaway PJO Archaeology Introduction Amongst the objectives of the 2012 World Class Heritage conference was a review of some of the principal research themes in York’s archaeology in terms both of what had been achieved since the publication of the York Development and Archaeology Study in 1991 (the ‘Ove Arup Report’) and of what might be achieved in years to come. As far as the Roman period is concerned, one of the more important developments of the last twenty years may be found in the new opportunities for research into the relationship between, on the one hand, the fortress and principal civilian settlements, north-east and south-west of the Ouse, - ‘the core’ – and, on the other hand, the surrounding region, in particular a hinterland zone within c. 3-4 km of the city centre, roughly between the inner and outer ring roads – ‘the periphery’. This development represents one of the more successful outcomes from the list of recommended projects in the Ove Arup report, amongst which was ‘The Hinterland Survey’ (Project 7, p.33). Furthermore, it responds to the essay in the Technical Appendix to the Arup report in which Steve Roskams stresses that it is crucial to study York in its regional context if we are to understand it in relation to an ‘analysis of Roman imperialism’ (see also Roskams 1999). The use of the term ‘imperialism’ here gives a political edge to a historical process more often known as ‘Romanisation’ for which, in Britain, material culture is the principal evidence in respect of agriculture, religion, society, technology, the arts and so forth.

  • Selby District Council LDF
    Selby District Council LDF Core Strategy Submission Draft: Examination in Public, Pre- hearing Meeting, Highways Agency and North Yorkshire County Council (NYCC) (Local Highways Agency) Position Statement 1 Introduction 1.1 The Highways Agency and NYCC have been in consultation with Selby District Council for some three years and as a statutory consultee has commented on the various draft versions of the Council’s Core Strategy proposals and their draft proposed development sites allocations. 1.2 The Highways Agency and NYCC, as local highways authority, are committed to working in partnership with Selby District Council to ensure that development is implemented in a sustainable and timely manner without an adverse impact on the safe and efficient operation of both the strategic road network and the local road network. 2 Strategic Road Network and Local Road Network Description 2.1 Within Selby District there are three sections of the Strategic Road Network (SRN) managed by the Highways Agency on behalf of the Secretary of State for Transport. These are: • M62 • A1(M) • A64(T) 2.2 The M62 and A1(M) are three lane dual carriageway motorways with grade separated junctions. The A64(T) is an all-purpose two lane dual carriageway with grade separated junctions. 2.3 The local road network (LRN) within Selby District is managed by NYCC as the Local Highway Authority. Operational conditions 2.4 At present no sections of the SRN or LRN within Selby district have regular weekday traffic congestion problems. However, the A64(T) acts as a commuter route between York and the towns and villages beyond and the West Yorkshire urban centres, thus there is a predominant traffic flow in the westbound direction in the morning peak and eastbound in the evening peak.

  • York Flood Inquiry
    York Flood Inquiry 1 2 Foreword On Boxing Day 2015, the city of York experienced exceptional flooding. Readers of this Report will be familiar with photographs and footage of York showing abandoned properties, marooned cars, residents being rescued from their homes in boats and Chinook helicopters airlifting equipment to repair the Foss Barrier. The problems did not recede as quickly as the water, many people were unable to return home for months whilst their houses were being repaired and businesses were put out of action for months on end. Even now, York is working to return to normal. In April 2016, I was appointed by City of York Council (CYC) as Chair of its independent Inquiry into the Boxing Day floods. Technical flooding expertise has been provided by the appointed panel members, Tom Toole and Laurence Waterhouse. Mr. Toole has had an extensive career in the Water Industry and he retired in late 2010 from his role as Associate Director/Commercial Director for the Arup UK Water Business. In the latter years of his career his experience enabled him to act as an Independent Expert Witness on many water related disputes. Mr. Waterhouse is the Technical Director of Flood Risk and Climate Change at Consulting Engineers Pell Frischmann. He is a past Chairman of the National Flood Forum and a Member of the United Nations Expert Panel on Climate Change Adaptation. He has over 40 years’ experience as a chartered surveyor specialising in flood protection. Over the last seven months the Inquiry Panel has held public meetings, considered over 50 written submissions and sent out a questionnaire to flood affected residents and businesses.

  • Self-Harm: Local Identification of Needs
    Self-harm: local identification of needs City of York Council CONTENTS: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Page 2 INTRODUCTION Page 4 Groups at risk Page 7 Local self-harm data Page 8 Gaps in data Page 17 LOCAL SERVICES Page 18 GP Surgeries Page 18 Counselling Services Page 18 Emergency Services Page 20 Telephone Support Services Page 22 Schools Page 24 Voluntary Sector Page 24 RESPONDING TO SELF HARM Page 25 Safeguarding Page 25 Perceptions around self-harm Page 26 Evidence for interventions Page 28 Locally defined approach Page 30 REFERENCES Page 32 Page 1 of 33 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Self-harm is reported to be a growing concern and issue locally. York does have slightly higher rates of hospital admissions due to self-harm than England average rates and anecdotal and audit information from a range of sources identifies growing concerns about increases in self- harm. There is a current gap in the availability of comprehensive and robust data to be able to clearly identify the full scope of the issue. There are inconsistent ways of recording, reporting and sharing self-harm related information about risk and prevalence where an incident does not result in a hospital admission. Where self-harming behaviour does result in a hospital admission, there is a good availability of local data but this does not provide a full picture about the scope of self-harm. A range of services and staff groups identify self-harm as a concern but information about the prevalence of this behaviour is not consistently collected or shared between services. There is a lack of readily available advice and information for people to access about self-harm, how to identify when self-harming behaviour may be happening, what to do and how to support someone who is self- harming.
