  • Dinantian Igneous Rocks of the Peak
    th JULY 10 2018 Tuesday Dinantian Igneous Rocks of the Derbyshire Peak District with Adrian Legg ( Member). Industrial Theme – lime, roadstone and railway ballast 12 of us met Adrian at the Peak District National Park car park in Tideswell Dale, on one of our rare meetings out of the county, on a beautiful July day. For those of us travelling over Holme Moss, the journey itself was a worthwhile day out whilst looking forward to seeing igneous rocks which are so rare in Yorkshire Although the Derbyshire Peak District is known for its classic Carboniferous limestone scenery Adrian had spent time researching dolerite, lava and volcanic ash outcrops in the scenic area of Tideswell Dale and Miller’s Dale and very ably explained and demonstrated these to us. We started with a dolerite boulder in the car park, which itself sits on dolerite within an old quarry with a substantial dolerite sill in the trees above us and then by ascending a short way we approached the huge Tideswell Dale Quarry with it’s 30m deep sill face to be examined. All this material was excavated and used for rail ballast and roadstone. We continued down the Dale and alongside the River Wye to Miller’s Dale and ascended to the Station on the abandoned railway now used by walkers and cyclists being on the Monsal Trail where we had lunch in whatever shade we could find. Adrian showed us a further quarry just west of the station before heading across the major viaduct and past an industrial lime kiln beside the railway, being another industrial use of the geology of the area, before reaching our final point of geological interest in a railway cutting before Litton Mill.

  • Rivers Bradford and Lathkill
    Rivers Bradford and Lathkill Introduction The Rivers Bradford and Lathkill in the Peak District are very important for people and wildlife and therefore need to be protected and enhanced for current and future generations. Although the rivers both provide good habitat and have good water quality they do suffer from low flows at certain times of the year and significant reaches dried up during the summer of 2011. Whilst parts of the bed of the Lathkill dry up every year the Bradford is effected much less frequently. In terms of rainfall 2011 was one of the driest years on record for the Midlands. This lead to the Environment Agency undertaking fish rescues on the River Lathkill during the summer, whilst this is an annual occurrence it happened earlier in the year than normal. A similar rescue was undertaken by the Haddon Estate on the River Bradford. On 7th November 2011, we spoke to the local community, at a public meeting hosted by Youlgreave residents about the issues facing the rivers in times of low rainfall and what may be the causes of the rivers drying up; the meeting was attended by approximately 100 people. We have been examining the data and evidence around the drying of the rivers and have considered rainfall data, groundwater levels, licensed water abstraction in the area, the local geology and historical mine drainage systems as contributory factors that have caused the rivers to dry up. Historical Evidence The River Bradford has dried up on previous occasions the most recent event prior to 2011 was 1996, which correlated with the rainfall data for this year which is the ninth driest on record for the Derwent Catchment.

ISSN 0417 0687 125 A SHORT LIFE OF I. CHARLES COX (by Canon Maudce Abbott, Ince Blundell Hall, Back O'Th Town Lane, Liverpool, L38 5JL) First impressions stay with us, they say; and ever since my school days when my parents took me with them on their frequent visits to old churches, I have maintained a constant interest in them. This became a lifelong pursuit on my 20th birthday, when my father gave me a copy of The Parish Churches ot' England by J. Charles Cox and Charles Bradley Ford. In his preface, written in March 1935, Mr Ford pointed out that Dr Cox's English Parish Church was lirsl published in 1914, and was the recognised handbook on its subiect. In time the book became out of print and it was felt that a revised edition would be appropriate, because Cox was somewhat discutsive in his writrng. The text was pruned and space made for the inclusion of a chapter on'Local Varieties in Design'. This was based on Cox's original notes on the subject and other sources. I found this book quite fascinating and as the years went by I began to purchase second-hand copies of Cox's works and eventually wanted to know more about the man himself.
