Goitstock Waterfall, Cullingworth Goitstock Waterfall, Cullingworth STATUS: Local Geological Site OTHER DESIGNATIONS: Local Wildlife Site COUNTY: West Yorkshire DISTRICT: Bradford OS GRID REF SE 077 367 OS SHEET 1:50,000 Landranger 104 Leeds and Bradford OS SHEET: 1:25,000 Outdoor Leisure 21 South Pennines BGS Geological 1:50,000 Sheet 69 Bradford (Solid and Drift Edition) FIRST DESIGNATED by West Yorkshire RIGS Group in 1996 DATE OF MOST RECENT SURVEY West Yorkshire Geology Trust in February 2009 SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION produced by Neil Aitkenhead DESIGNATION SHEET UPDATED August 2009 SITE DESCRIPTION This is a fine example of waterfall formation by the differential weathering of the Upper Carboniferous Midgley Grit (formerly the Woodhouse Grit) and softer underlying sandy shales. The waterfall lies in a beautiful wooded amphitheatre where the boundary of the grits and shales is clearly exposed and is accessible. The gritstones contain interesting structures, including sets of cross lamination and a sharp erosive base. Goitstock Wood is recognised as having ecological importance. HISTORICAL ASSOCIATIONS: EDUCATIONAL VALUE: The site is suitable for small parties of students at all levels, wishing to study the relationship between geology and landforms. AESTHETIC CHARACTERISTICS: The falls lie in an area of pleasant woodland which has a high amenity value. ACCESS AND SAFETY: Although containing good paths, Goitstock Wood has steep valley sides, slippery rocks and deep water beneath the falls which are potentially hazardous. The site is only suitable for small, well supervised parties. Suitable footwear is essential. Park in Cullingworth and walk along the B6144 to the track leading NE to Hallas Bridge. Take the footpath along the east side of Harden Beck which leads to the falls. Alternatively park near the SE end of Greenside Lane just before it meets Hallas Lane at a T junction. .

    TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING IN THE UK Thirteenth Edition This extensively revised edition of Town and Country Planning in the UK retains and enhances its reputation as the bible of British planning. The book now covers the whole of the UK and gives a critical discussion of current issues and problems. It provides an explanation of the nature of planning, the institutions and organisations involved, the plans and other tools used by planners, the system of controlling development and land use change, and planning policies pursued. Detailed consideration is given to: • The nature of planning and its historical evolution • Central and local government, the EU and other agencies • The framework of plans and other planning instruments • Development control • Land policy and planning gain • Environmental and countryside planning • Sustainable development, waste and pollution • Heritage and transport planning • Urban policies and regeneration • Planning, the profession and the public This thirteenth edition has been completely revised to take into account the many changes to the planning system and policies introduced by the Labour government. The devolution of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, the new instruments of regional and strategic planning, new area-based urban policy initiatives, innovation in planning for sustainable development and the rapidly expanding role of the European Union in spatial planning and environmental policy are all given comprehensive treatment in the new edition. Each chapter ends with notes on further reading and there are lists of official publications and an extensive bibliography at the end of the book. Barry Cullingworth has held academic posts at the Universities of Manchester, Durham, Glasgow, Birmingham and Toronto and is Emeritus Professor of Urban Affairs and Public Policy at the University of Delaware.
