Authority Meetings Any member of the Yorkshire Dales Access Forum can attend Authority Meetings as a member of the public. Please contact Clare Tamea for a copy of the agenda and supporting papers. Please note, it is not a requirement for members of the YDAF to attend Authority meetings, so it is not an ‘approved duty’ and LAF members cannot claim expenses for attending such meetings.

Those members that were reaching the end of their three year term have been invited to sit on the forum for a further year, when the recruitment process will be revisited. We, therefore, welcome back Debbie North, Heather Hodgson, Barbara Gravenor, John Richardson, Jon Beavan and Alex Law. Countryside and Rights of Way Act Appendix 1 shows a list of restrictions made under Sections 22 of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act on open access between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2020. Appendix 2 shows the number of queries handled by the Natural England managed open access contact centre in relation to restrictions in national parks. Yorkshire and Humber Regional LAF The last meeting of the Yorkshire and Humber LAF was held on 9 September 2020. Jon Beavan and John Richardson both attended. The minutes can be seen in Appendix 3. National Farmers Union (NFU) – Landscape and Access Report In October 2020, the NFU produced their Landscape and Access Report. The full report can be seen at the link below: https://www.nfuonline.com/nfu-online/science-and-environment/nfu-landscape-and- access-report/ Members may be particularly interested in the section on Access and Engagement on pages 12-15. Prior to the launch of the report, various partners were asked for their views. A particular concern has been the proposal to allow landowners to, temporarily, divert public rights of way where livestock are present. A combined letter has since been sent to Lord Gardiner with their thoughts on the proposal. The letter can be seen in Appendix 4 The development of a modern and adaptable public access 2 Traffic free days and motorbike noise At the last meeting of the YDAF (2 June 2020) members debated the possibility of a traffic free day in the National Park as a way of reducing motorbike noise, and asked for a report back. Significantly, this discussion was picked up by the media and was summarised well in an article featured in Richmondshire Today. The link to the article from 4 June 2020 is below: http://www.richmondshiretoday.co.uk/calls-for-vehicle-free-days-in-yorkshire-dales- amid-concern-over-noise-from-motorcyclists-fitted-with-illegal-exhausts/ The North Yorkshire’s crime commissioner promised to tackle the issue shortly after.

  • A Parasite of Red Grouse (Lagopus Lagopus Scoticus)
    THE ECOLOGY AND PATHOLOGY OF TRICHOSTRONGYLUS TENUIS (NEMATODA), A PARASITE OF RED GROUSE (LAGOPUS LAGOPUS SCOTICUS) A thesis submitted to the University of Leeds in fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By HAROLD WATSON (B.Sc. University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne) Department of Pure and Applied Biology, The University of Leeds FEBRUARY 198* The red grouse, Lagopus lagopus scoticus I ABSTRACT Trichostrongylus tenuis is a nematode that lives in the caeca of wild red grouse. It causes disease in red grouse and can cause fluctuations in grouse pop ulations. The aim of the work described in this thesis was to study aspects of the ecology of the infective-stage larvae of T.tenuis, and also certain aspects of the pathology and immunology of red grouse and chickens infected with this nematode. The survival of the infective-stage larvae of T.tenuis was found to decrease as temperature increased, at temperatures between 0-30 C? and larvae were susceptible to freezing and desiccation. The lipid reserves of the infective-stage larvae declined as temperature increased and this decline was correlated to a decline in infectivity in the domestic chicken. The occurrence of infective-stage larvae on heather tips at caecal dropping sites was monitored on a moor; most larvae were found during the summer months but very few larvae were recovered in the winter. The number of larvae recovered from the heather showed a good correlation with the actual worm burdens recorded in young grouse when related to food intake. Examination of the heather leaflets by scanning electron microscopy showed that each leaflet consists of a leaf roll and the infective-stage larvae of T.tenuis migrate into the humid microenvironment' provided by these leaf rolls.

  • Gunnerside, Swaledale – Conservation Area Character Appraisal
    Gunnerside, Swaledale – Conservation Area Character Appraisal Designated – 29 January 2002 © Crown copyright, Yorkshire Dales NPA, Licence No. 100023740 2007 1 Introduction This draft character appraisal has been prepared as part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority’s Conservation Area Strategy. It has been prepared by Blaise Vyner Heritage and Arts Consultancy and follows on from a guided walk and Conservation Area Workshop meeting held at Gunnerside on Saturday 20th January 2001 and further meetings on 12 June 2001 and 4 September 2001. 2 Location and setting Gunnerside is focused on the banks of the Gunnerside Beck, and cleaves to the east-west communication routes which follow the rising ground of the north valley side and which enabled the crossing of Gunnerside Gill above the flood plain of the River Swale. This situation, adopted by a number of other Swaledale villages, has rising hillsides to the north, but provides open views to the south, maximising the opportunities for daylight. The modern route through the village gives the impression of an almost linear settlement, but it is actually one with a series of focuses. The principal character of the village’s form derives from 17th century and earlier agricultural settlement, although today’s buildings owe much to the economic prosperity brought about by the lead mining industry of the 18th and 19th centuries. From the beck crossing and its approach, paths and tracks fan outwards, east and west along the Swale, and more particularly, up the valley side to Old Gang, Lownathwaite, and other lead mines and smelting mills. The tracks provides a framework upon which the settlement developed, variable in origin and structure so that now these various tracks are the most significant delineation of the various elements of the village.

  • Karen Banks Adambottom Farm, West Burton, North Yorkshire, DL8 4UL I
    Karen Banks From: Grace Maddan <[email protected]> Sent: 05 February 2021 10:01 To: Andrew Bishop; Planning; [email protected]; localplan Subject: Planning Application R/85/514/GDO Adambottom Farm, West Burton, North Yorkshire, DL8 4UL I object to the proposed mast at West Scrafton on visual impact grounds. Grace Maddan 1 Karen Banks From: Humphrey Maddan <[email protected]> Sent: 05 February 2021 08:47 To: Planning; Andrew Bishop; [email protected]; localplan Subject: Planning application R/85/514/GDO Adambottom farm West Burton Leyburn DL8 4UL Dear Planners, I strongly object to the proposed mast at West Scrafton. I think there are many reasons why it is unwise to accept 5G modernisation at the cost of the world class Yorkshire Dales. Here are a few: 1) Economically - the business cases I've viewed about the benefits to do with IoT does simply not stack up in having a meaningful benefit to our communities. Faster internet yes - see next point: 2) Technically - fibre optic would be hugely preferable as a solution to faster internet - due to speed and precision with no visual collateral. 3) Aesthetically - I would hope that individuals responsible for stewarding the Yorkshire Dales are conscious of how rare a landscape they are able to either preserve or change. 4)Environmentally - I think the effect on pollinators and species (not to mention humans) seems to be relatively unquantified. Therefore in light of the other areas, there is no reason to bring this risk to our community. I realise that it must be a hard decision - but please scrutinise your motives in this area.

  • 21. Yorkshire Dales Area Profile: Supporting Documents
    National Character 21. Yorkshire Dales Area profile: Supporting documents www.gov.uk/natural-england 1 National Character 21. Yorkshire Dales Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we North are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are East areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good Yorkshire decision-making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

  • Yorkshire Swale Flood History 2013
    Yorkshire Swale flood history 2013 Sources The greater part of the information for the River Swale comes from a comprehensive PhD thesis by Hugh Bowen Willliams to the University of Leeds in 1957.He in turn has derived his information from newspaper reports, diaries, local topographic descriptions, minutes of Local Authority and Highway Board and, further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts. The information is supplemented by various conversations which Williams had with farmers who owned land adjacent to the river. Where possible the height of the flood at the nearest cross- section of the place referred to in the notes is given. This has either been levelled or estimated from the available data. Together with the level above Ordnance Datum (feet) and the section in question there is given (in brackets) the height of the flood above normal water level. Information is also included from the neighbouring dales (mainly Wensleydale and Teesdale) as this gives some indication of conditions in Swaledale. Williams indicates that this is by no means a complete list, but probably contains most of the major floods in the last 200 years, together with some of the smaller ones in the last 70 years. Date and Rainfall Description sources 11 Sep 1673 Spate carried away dwelling house at Brompton-on-Swale. Burnsell Bridge on the Wharfe was washed away.
