Yorkshire-Coast--Moorland-Scenes
Produced by Ted Garvin, Ginny Brewer and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team YORKSHIRE COAST AND MOORLAND SCENES Painted and Described By GORDON HOME _Second Edition_ 1907 _First Edition published April 26, 1904 Second Edition published April, 1907_ PREFACE page 1 / 92 It may seem almost superfluous to explain that this book does not deal with the whole of Yorkshire, for it would obviously be impossible to get even a passing glimpse of such a great tract of country in a book of this nature. But I have endeavoured to give my own impressions of much of the beautiful coast-line, and also some idea of the character of the moors and dales of the north-east portion of the county. I have described the Dale Country in a companion volume to this, entitled 'Yorkshire Dales and Fells.' GORDON HOME. EPSOM, 1907.

Beacons of the Coast
National Seashore National Park Service Cape Lookout U.S. Department of the Inerior Beacons of the Coast Over a century ago, mariners travelling along the Atlantic coast encountered dangerous shoals and treacherous storms. Their guides were the beacons of light produced by lighthouses which helped mariners navigate the perilous coastline. For mariners traveling along the North Carolina coast, seven lighthouse beacons were constructed to guide them through an area known as the “Graveyard of the Atlantic.” Hundreds of shipwrecks occurred due to the dangers of this area. Today, the ships traveling the coast use modern tools such as radar and sonar. The beacons continue to operate, standing as a reminder of the hardships encountered by our ancestors to help settle the country. These seven lighthouses found on the North Carolina coast stand as pieces of our past. CURRITUCK BEACH LIGHTHOUSE This lighthouse was constructed from 1874 - 1875, and it lit the last dark spot on the Carolina coast between the Cape Fear lighthouse in Virginia and Bodie Island. The red brick lighthouse rises 158 feet above sea level. Unlike many other lighthouses that received distinctive day marks, Currituck was not painted. But its red brick is unique on the Carolina coast. It has a short light signal: 5 seconds on, 15 seconds off. There is a Fresnel lens still working in the lighthouse and it is activated from dusk to dawn. Currituck Lighthouse is open 10-6 daily from Easter to Thanksgiving weekend. You can walk to the top of the lighthouse. BODIE ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE This was the third lighthouse to be built on Bodie Island (pronounced “body”) and was constructed in the early 1870’s. -

Growing up in the Old Point Loma Lighthouse (Teacher Packet)
Growing Up in the Old Point Loma Lighthouse Teacher Packet Program: A second grade program about living in the Old Point Loma Lighthouse during the late 1800s, with emphasis on the lives and activities of children. Capacity: Thirty-five students. One adult per five students. Time: One hour. Park Theme to be Interpreted: The Old Point Loma Lighthouse at Cabrillo National Monument has a unique history related to San Diego History. Objectives: At the completion of this program, students will be able to: 1. List two responsibilities children often perform as a family member today. 2. List two items often found in the homes of yesterday that are not used today. 3. State how the lack of water made the lives of the lighthouse family different from our lives today. 4.

Redcar and Cleveland
Redcar and Cleveland Personal Details: Name: Lynn Buckton E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: I have lived in Dormanstown for over 23 years. I moved here when my husband decided to come back home. My husband was born and lived all his chilhood in Dormanstown. Dormanstown was built for the workers of the steel industry. Also building some of the countries first retirement homes. It makes no sense to me as a resident why the steel work site is been removed from dormanstown. Whilst removing the industry from what is already a deprived and poor ward why would you want to do this as it will only make the ward poorer and less funds available when the industry goes so does any section 106 money which can only help and support the ward. id like to see the ward back with its heritage in tact and 3 ward councillors as i believe our ward is best represented with 3 rather than 2 which will make things harder for me as they will have a bigger work load and less support. Also as a member of friends of westfield farm we have used funding from the councillors on a number of occasions in order for us to put on events for the community. Our biggest been last year when we opened up the 100yrs celebrations and are continuing with this. this year. i am sure if i had the time to write a petition there would be a high percentage of the residents sign it.

Different people at the entrance to the strategic route between the might argue over the definition of a lighthouse, for Mediterranean and Black Seas would have created example.2 Others might be asking about the first a vital navigational aid as long ago as the twelfth or lighthouse that was ever built. A third group might be thirteenth centuries BCE.

Birtle (NNU) EDITORIAL It is perhaps fitting that, as the Cleveland Naturalist's Field Club enters its 111th year in 1991, we should be celebrating its long history of natural history recording through the re-establishment of the "Proceedings". In the early days of the club this publication formed the focus of information desemmination and was published continuously from 1881 until 1932. Despite the enormous changes in land use which have occurred in the last 60 years, and indeed the change in geographical area brought about by the fairly recent formation of Cleveland County, many of the old records published in the Proceedings still hold true and even those species which have disappeared or contracted in range are of value in providing useful base line data for modern day surveys. -
Minerals and Waste Core Strategy
Tees Valley Joint Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents In association with Core Strategy DPD Adopted September 2011 27333-r22.indd 1 08/11/2010 14:55:36 i ii Foreword The Tees Valley Minerals and Waste Development Plan Documents (DPDs) - prepared jointly by the boroughs of Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees - bring together the planning issues which arise from these two subjects within the sub-region. Two DPDs have been prepared. This Minerals and Waste Core Strategy contains the long-term spatial vision and the strategic policies needed to achieve the key objectives for minerals and waste developments in the Tees Valley. The separate Policies and Sites DPD, which conforms with it, identifies specific sites for minerals and waste development and sets out policies which will be used to assess minerals and waste planning applications. The DPDs form part of the local development framework and development plan for each Borough. They cover all of the five Boroughs except for the part within Redcar and Cleveland that lies within the North York Moors National Park. (Minerals and waste policies for that area are included in the national park’s own local development framework.) The DPDs were prepared during a lengthy process of consultation. This allowed anyone with an interest in minerals and waste in the Tees Valley the opportunity to be involved. An Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State carried out an Examination into the DPDs in early 2011. He concluded that they had been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 and were sound. -

BACKGROUND What are Local Sites and why do we need them? 1.1 Local Sites can be Local Wildlife Sites (LWS) or Local Geological Sites (LGS). Local Wildlife Sites are areas of land which meet specific, objective criteria for nature conservation value. These criteria, which are based on the Defra guidance(1), have been decided locally by the Tees Valley Local Sites Partnership. The sites represent a range of important habitat types and variety of species that are of conservation concern. The Tees Valley RIGS (Regionally Important Geological Sites) group advises the Local Sites Partnership on the selection and management of Local Geological Sites, areas which they have identified as being of geological importance. 1.2 Local Sites can provide local contact with nature and opportunities for education, however designation as a Local Site does not confer any right of access. 1.3 Formerly known as Sites of Nature Conservation Interest (SNCIs) and RIGS, Local Sites are non-statutory site designations that have a lower level of protection than statutory designations, such as Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs). Local Sites, excluding those within the North York Moors National Park, currently receive protection from certain types of inappropriate development through our Local Development Framework. -
