Wakefield South Ward InstantAtlas™ Server 6 Wakefield Ward Profile Selection: Wakefield South Ward Introduction The Wakefield district is divided into 21 wards, with each ward being represented by three councillors. Councillors are elected by residents of the district and are responsible for making decisions about local services and budgets, such as Council Tax, on behalf of the local community. Each councillor serves for a period of four years. The ward boundaries are reviewed periodically, and the current boundaries were last altered in 2004. Wakefield South Ward is situated to the south of Wakefield city and incorporates Agbrigg , Sandal, Milnthorpe, Kettlethorpe, Sandal Woodthorpe and Belle Vue. Selected landmarks: Sandal Castle Pugneys Country Park The Rapid Solicitors Stadium, home of Wakefield Trinity Wildcats RLFC Masjid Zakariya mosque Wakefield Cemetery Profile created: 9/1/2017 Population Profile Population Size The most accurate population estimates are produced every ten years from the Census.

In 2001, the district's ethnic population represented just 3.3% of the total population, but the 2011 Census shows this has risen to 7.2%. This proportion, though, is much lower than the England average of 20.2%. A large part of the district increase in the ethnic minority population has been due to immigration from Eastern Europe, particularly from Poland. There has also been continued immigration from South Asia, and a small but growing number of people immigrating from Africa. The ethnic mix for this area is shown in the table below.

The English Indices of Deprivation are the most detailed and frequently used measure of deprivation. The Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) is calculated for every neighbourhood in England every three years, and it combines many variables, grouped into seven themes: Income Employment Health deprivation and disability Education, skills and training Barriers to housing and services Crime Living environment The IMD 2015 shows that conditions have worsened for some of the district’s most deprived areas relative to deprivation elsewhere in England.

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.

  • The West Riding in the Late Seventeenth Century by David Hey
    Introduction: The West Riding in the Late Seventeenth Century by David Hey Not only was Yorkshire by far the largest of the ancient counties of England, at 1,709,307 acres, but the West Riding alone exceeded in size every other county except Lincolnshire. The word riding is derived from the late Old English ‘thrithing’ or ‘thriding’, itself adapted from an Old Norse loan word, meaning a third part. Wapentake, similarly derived, was the equivalent of the Anglo-Saxon hundred, and came from the symbolic flourishing of weapons to signify agreement when decisions were made in open-air assemblies at convenient sites, such as a river crossing or by a stone cross.1 The wapentakes continued to see to the levying of taxes, the raising of the militia and the maintenance of law and order and did not finally disappear until the reorganisation of local government in 1974. The West Riding was divided into eleven wapentakes: Ainsty, Agbrigg, Barkston Ash, Claro, Ewcross, Morley, Osgoldcross, Skyrack, Staincliffe, Staincross and Strafforth. The Ainsty, bounded by the rivers Ure, Ouse and Wharfe, had been annexed by Henry VI (d. 1471), king of England, to the city of York, as the county of the city, which was independent of all three ridings, but it was still considered to be a West Riding wapentake. The wapentakes were divided into townships, the vills of medieval documents. In the eastern parts of the West Riding many townships were coterminous with the ecclesiastical parishes and were referred to as parishes in the hearth tax returns, but the large moorland parishes in the west contained numerous townships.
