  • Wakefield, West Riding: the Economy of a Yorkshire Manor
    WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR By BRUCE A. PAVEY Bachelor of Arts Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1991 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1993 OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR Thesis Approved: ~ ThesiSAd er £~ A J?t~ -Dean of the Graduate College ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to to the faculty and staff of the Department of History, and especially the members of my advisory committee for the generous sharing of their time and knowledge during my stay at O.S.U. I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

  • Calderdale Way Walking Route
    Calderdale Way, walk route – dramatic West Yorkshire The Calderdale Way is a 50 mile (80 km) walk exploring the hills, moors and valleys of Calderdale. It is an ‘up and down’ journey with few level sections. The higher levels, however, provide some exceptionally fine panoramic views. There are some steep sections and there will be muddy parts following wet weather. Some areas of moorland are exposed. Mileage details, which are approximate, are given for longer sections with intermediate distances. The best walking and views as with all walks, would be in sunny weather following a dry spell. Appropriate footwear and clothing is needed for every part. The walk is accessible by public transport. Additionally it can be split into short walks also by using public transport. Additionally, there are many link paths. For example, an easy walk would be the three mile Norland to Ripponden section. Take the bus from Halifax to Norland and then walk on the level and downhill to Ripponden with another bus back to Halifax. Another even shorter walk combined with sight-seeing, would be to take the train to Hebden Bridge, bus to Heptonstall, and walk ¾ mile down to Hardcastle Crag and bus back to Hebden Bridge. The whole walk is circular and so can be started at any point; this starts at Brighouse. There are bus services to each of the distance points. Train services are available at Brighouse, Todmorden, Hebden Bridge, Mytholmroyd, Sowerby Bridge and Halifax. Route map and accommodation links at end of these details. Brighouse, Southowram, West Vale, Norland, Ripponden, Mill Bank (11.5 miles; start satnav HD6 1PQ) This section is a relatively easy introduction to the walk.

  • The Heptonstall Trail: an Ancient Village Explored Audio E- Trail Script
    !"!"##$#"%&'($)'#*%"+,(-$.*% " ///01"##$#"2"($3-4"0'(4056" " ! THE HEPTONSTALL TRAIL: AN ANCIENT VILLAGE EXPLORED AUDIO E- TRAIL SCRIPT Stop 1: The Heptonstall Industrial Co-operative Society – once a thriving local business. “This large building was built in 1866, by the then newly formed Heptonstall Co-operative Industrial Society. Two years before, the Society had bought seven old cottages, demolished 6 of them, and built the present building. Just one of the old cottages remains - Stag Cottage - tucked away in the small fold to the left. The Heptonstall Co-op flourished during the 19th century, owning the farm behind, on which a car park now stands, as well as the row of tall houses above it, off Northgate - Co-operative Terrace. The Society went into liquidation in 1967 and the property was sold, since when it’s seen many changes. Facing the Co-op, walk down to the left hand side, in front of the Joinery, and there you’ll find, hidden away, Stag Cottage. This is probably the oldest surviving house in Heptonstall, built around 1580. The cottage has typically 16th century windows and elaborate arched lintels. Stag Cottage was so named because it is next to the former Stag Inn (now two cottages just above).” Stop 2: Heptonstall’s Inns – a long history of village hostelries. “In the early 1800’s there were 5 inns in Heptonstall, as well as beer shops, most of which were here on Towngate. This might seem a lot for a small village, but at that time this was a large settlement, an important focal point for traders and merchants.
