  • Durham County Council Election Results 1973-2005
    Durham County Council Election Results 1973-2005 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

  • Durham at War Lidar Landscapes Project Report
    Durham at War Lidar Landscapes Project Report December 2017 Front cover. Lidar image of the site of Deerbolt Training Camp, now occupied by Deerbolt Prison, just west of Barnard Castle (Area 1 in this survey). Little if any sign of the First World War camp survives above ground, though earthworks of a contemporary rifle range do survive, and have been recorded on lidar, on the south bank of the Deepdale Beck, to the west. This image demonstrates something of the time-depth of the historic landscape here, with ridge- and-furrow field-systems, some of which date from medieval times, clearly visible. Durham at War Lidar Landscapes Project Report Contents Acknowledgements 1. Introduction 2. Methodology 3. Results 4. Discussion Appendix References 1 Durham at War Lidar Landscapes Project Report Acknowledgements First and foremost, thanks are due to the volunteers who undertook the survey work: D Armstrong, Chris and Audrey Battersby, Barbara Chipchase, Paul Cordes, David Donkin, John Goldsborough, and J P Merrington. This report has been written by Project Consultant, Paul Frodsham (ORACLE Heritage Services). The Project Management Team for Durham County Council was Victoria Oxberry (Durham at War Project Officer), Liz Bregazzi (County Archivist) and Nick Boldrini (County Durham Historic Environment Record Officer). 2 Durham at War Lidar Landscapes Project Report 1. Introduction This project was completed as part of Durham County Council’s HLF-funded Durham at War project (www.durhamatwar.org.uk), which works with local volunteers to commemorate the centenary of the First World War. It was designed to serve two purposes. First, to enable volunteers with an interest in landscape archaeology to familiarise themselves with lidar and its use in archaeological survey.

  • County Durham Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities Open
    County Durham Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities Second edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… Foreword written by Tony Blair Open This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. The Land of the Prince Bishops has some of the most stunning landscapes in Britain. From its high Pennine moorland in the west to the limestone cliffs of its North Sea coastline in the east, County Durham boasts an impressive variety of landscape for you to explore. Upper Teesdale, in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is home to England's highest waterfall, High Force. At Barnard Castle, on the banks of the Tees, you can explore the romantic ruins which gave the town its name, as well as the sumptuous Bowes Museum and the medieval Raby Castle with its majestic deer park. For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside. By contacting Open Country or another of the organisations listed here, you can help to encourage better access for all in the future.
