What is landscape character assessment 1.1 Landscape can be defined as ‘an area as perceived by people, whose character is the result of the action and interaction of natural and/or human factors’1. 1.2 Landscape character assessment or LCA is an accepted, recognised method for understanding what the landscape is like today, how it came to be like that, and how it may change in the future. Landscape character assessment describes and classifies the distinct, recognisable and consistent pattern of elements that make one landscape different from another, rather than better or worse. Character is what makes each part of a landscape distinct and gives each area its particular sense of place. 1.3 The landscape character approach considers that all landscapes matter2 or are valuable. The purpose of landscape character assessment is to help ensure that change and development does not undermine what is characteristic or valued about a particular place, and that ways of improving the character of a place can be considered in planning for change. 1.4 The landscape character assessment of Scarborough Borough provides a comprehensive landscape evidence base to help underpin planning and management policy and decision-making in the borough. The landscape of Scarborough Borough 1.5 Scarborough Borough is located in the north east of England, within the county of North Yorkshire. Approximately 73% of the borough falls within the jurisdiction of the North York Moors National Park Authority. This study covers the areas of the borough which are outside the National Park boundary, as shown on Figure 1.1. 1.6 The landscape of Scarborough is an upland landscape rising from the North Yorkshire coast up towards the open heather moorlands and the forests of the North York Moors and the associated National Park, although characterised by the Yorkshire Wolds in the southern part. Landform distinction is created by moorland outcrops and at the coastal headlands and cliffs, as well as by gorges and river valleys such as the River Esk. Purpose and structure of this report 1.7 This report forms part of the evidence base for the Scarborough Local Plan and informs the direction of future landscape planning policy. It will also provide evidence at strategic level for development management decisions. It describes, assesses and evaluates the character of the rural landscapes3 of Scarborough, identifying broadly aspects of the landscape which would be sensitive to change, and appropriate strategies for the landscapes. 1.8 It is supported by a companion volume (Volume 2: Landscape Sensitivity Study) which assesses the landscape and visual sensitivity of potential growth locations to residential and mixed use development. 1.9 The remainder of this report is structured as follows: 1 Council of Europe, 2000, European Landscape Convention 2 Ibid 3 Urban areas have been excluded from the study except where settlements fall outside of the defined settlement boundaries with reference to nationally available local authority data. In some instances a number of identified service villages in the borough fall outside of the defined settlement boundary.

The process has involved five main stages, namely: • Data collation – Physical and cultural data, including data on adjacent landscapes • Characterisation – analysis of the data, identify common patterns, to characterise the landscape in terms of landscape types and specific local character areas within these types • Field survey – to confirm /test the characterisation • Description – Describing the main or key characteristics of the local character areas • Evaluation – Understanding strategic sensitivities to change of the local character areas 2.2 This study draws from the county wide North Yorkshire Landscape Character Assessment, and was undertaken at 1:25,000 scale. It takes appropriate account of adjacent landscape character assessments, both for the North York Moors National Park and the adjacent local authorities. 2.3 A Geographic Information System (GIS) was used throughout the study to collate, interrogate and present mapped data. Data collation 2.4 This stage involved the collation and mapping of a wide range of existing information on the characteristics of Scarborough Borough, including mapped data on landform, geology, hydrology, historic landscape, biodiversity, land use, settlement and archaeology. Specifically, a hierarchy of landscape character is detailed through the National Character Areas, National Landscape Typology, the county wide landscape classification and previous Borough Landscape Study. Existing biodiversity and nature conservation interest is explored through environmental designations, both statutory and non-statutory, Natural Areas, BAP Priority Species and Ancient Woodland data. Additional information was provided by the Yorkshire and the Humber Green Infrastructure Mapping Project. Heritage assets have been provided through heritage designations (including registered parks and gardens), conservation areas and the North Yorkshire Historic Landscape

The palaeogeography of both areas during the Middle Jurassic 20 shows that there were no elevated landmasses being eroded to produce conglomeratic material in 21 the basins at that time. The low-lying landscape and connected shorelines may have provided 22 connectivity between the two dinosaur populations. 23 The dinosaur fauna of the Hebrides and Cleveland basins has been assessed based primarily 24 on the abundant ichnites found in both areas as well as their skeletal remains.

The territory of the monasterium, its parochia, was that of the secular royal vill, because kings granted these lands with the intention that monasteries provided pastoral care to the royal vill.

  • Reighton and Speeton Parish Magazines
    Reighton and Speeton Parish Magazines Introduction Reighton and Speeton are two small villages at the southern end of Filey Bay. Their parish magazines appear as parts of larger publications issued by the Parish Magazine Union which comprised the magazines of many of the parishes of the eastern part of the East Riding of Yorkshire. Having begun with just the parishes of Sewerby, Marton, Grindall and Argham in 1878 the Union grew steadily over the years and was still going strong on the eve of the First World War. The East Yorkshire Archives at Beverley holds many volumes of these magazines, and they make fascinating reading for anyone interested in the minutiae of the day to day lives of ordinary people. A surprising amount of information can be found in them about the individual people living in the villages. The entries for the larger villages are too lengthy for transcription but are easily accessible to anyone who cares to make the journey to Beverley. The volumes come in two sections: the first parts comprise material of a general nature with a religious slant, such as stories with morals, descriptions of churches, hints on housekeeping, and quizzes with Biblical themes such as would have formed part of the magazine for every parish. The second parts comprise the magazines of the individual parishes. Reighton joined the magazine union in 1898. The vicar at the time was William Rowley (Vicar of Reighton 1883 to 1901, formerly curate under Rev Nathaniel Constantine Strickland) but he was, for some reason, unable to attend to his duties.

  • Scarborough Railway Seaside Holiday Posters Including a Brief History of Scarborough Through the Posters by Stephen Riley
    The Yorkshire Journal, Volume 1, 2018 Scarborough Railway Seaside Holiday Posters Including a brief history of Scarborough through the posters By Stephen Riley A LNER Railway poster of Scarborough Spa by Fred Taylor with the caption ‘It’s Quicker by Rail’ issued in 1939 Scarborough Railway Seaside Holiday Posters Including a brief history of Scarborough through the posters By Stephen Riley In my last article ‘Flamborough Railway Seaside Holiday Posters’, T,Y.J Winter 2017, we slightly backtracked from Filey to Flamborough to take in North Landing at Flamborough Head. Now taking the train from Bempton railway station (Flamborough railway station, originally named Marton, closed on the 5th January 1970) on the Hull Scarborough line, also known as the Yorkshire Coast line built in 1845, we travels past Speeton railway station which opened on 20th October 1847 and closed on 5th January 1970. The station building and the adjacent platform are still in place. Then on to Humanby and Filey both railway stations are still open today. Left: Map showing the Yorkshire Coast Line, white circles represent closed stations Above: Speeton railway station and the adjacent platform, it closed on 5th January 1970. Photo by Nigel Thompson From Filey the railway line winds its way around the stations of Gristhorpe, Cayton, Seamer, Londesborough Road terminating at Scarborough. The Gristhorpe railway station opened on 5th October 1846 and closed on 16th February 1959. Cayton railway station opened on 5th October 1846 and closed on 5th May 1952. Like Gristhorpe, the former station house remains standing as a private house.
