North Eastern Railway Civil Engineering Drawings List North Eastern Railway Civil Engineering Drawings List Description: The collection includes a minority of architectural plans, along with drawings of structures such as bridges and viaducts, maps of permanent way routes and alterations, signalling plans and diagrams, with a variety of miscellaneous components for structures and infrastructure. The collection comprises approximately 3500 plans, diagrams and maps on paper, wax linen and linen- backed cartridge paper. System of arrangement: The original arrangement of the drawings has been lost and they derive from a wide variety of applications within the architectural and civil engineering genres. The drawings have therefore been listed in the rolls in which they were found, and every effort made to record the variety of numbering systems used at different times by the railway company departments involved in creating and storing the drawings, representative of the different types of drawing. There is no one single and consistent numbering arrangement. Physical Characteristics: The drawings survive in a variety of formats and sizes – there are wax linen tracings, colour washed linenbacked original office drawings, drawings on cartridge paper, blueprints and other copying processes. Administrative/Biographical History: The North Eastern Railway Company was formed in 1854 as an amalgamation of the York & North Midland Railway, the Leeds Northern Railway and the York, Newcastle & Berwick Railway. It continued to absorb other companies in the north eastern region of England over subsequent decades, including the Stockton & Darlington Railway, South Durham and Lancashire Union Railway and the West Hartlepool Railway. In 1923 the various railway companies of the United Kingdom were grouped into four large amalgamations. The North Eastern Railway became part of the London & North Eastern Railway Company, alongside other companies with close geographical links to the East Coast Main Line from London to Scotland. Among these other companies those most closely related to the North Eastern Railway geographically were the North British Railway, Great Northern Railway, Great Central Railway and the Hull & Barnsley Railway. In 1947 the four major companies were nationalised and the former LNER became part of British Railways, divided into regions for administrative purposes. The North Eastern Region of British Railways is the one relevant to this collection of drawings, particularly the Architects’ Department and Civil Engineering Department based in offices at York. The various constituent companies at different times and in various ways employed architects and civil engineers, sometimes from external sources and increasingly from among specialist departments under their own control. These went through various stages of re-organisation and re-structuring as amalgamations progressed. The Architects’ Department dealt mainly with buildings, such as housing, stations and warehouses. The Civil Engineers’ Department dealt mainly with infrastructure, such as permanent way, signalling, bridges, tunnels, viaducts and similar structures. The York offices of these departments tended to cover the region from Berwick to Doncaster and between the north east coast and the Pennines, and this is reflected in the contents of this collection of drawings. The drawings themselves cover a wide range of applications. A minority of the collection includes architectural drawings for company housing, stations and other railway-related buildings. The majority of the collection comprises civil engineering drawings of items such as bridges, viaducts and culverts. Signalling and track diagrams, as well Ordnance Survey maps, also form a considerable proportion of the collection.

Dr Susan Ramsaran (220019) www.humshaughbenefice.org.uk Chollerton Dear friends, Do you consider yourself a citizen of this country or a subject? I have always considered myself a subject. That is because I am a loyal subject of Her Majesty the Queen. I have not known any other monarch in my life because she has been Queen longer than I have been alive. On September 9th she will, God willing, have reigned over our nation longer than any other monarch, surpassing Queen Victoria’s 23,226 days. She plans to spend much of the day in the Borders, travelling from Edinburgh to Tweedbank near Galashiels on the new Borders Railway which I saw being constructed last year during a short break near there. It is the longest new line laid in the UK in over a century and many have made comparisons between this event with those which Queen Victoria attended during her reign. Apparently she is not going to make much of a fuss over becoming the longest serving monarch. Instead she wishes to spend time with her subjects celebrating achievements in the communities and among the people she loves and serves.

Later in the summer we look forward to Bishop Frank coming to hold a Deanery Confirmation at St Mungo’s Simonburn on the morning of Sunday 27th July. These two visits, for rather different purposes, will both be important occasions, each reminding us of the nature of the Church of England. The tradition of our Church, since Anglo Saxon times, has been to encourage a fairly independently spirited clergy to minister, in co-operation with local people, in distinct geographical areas. Over the years that system has shown both strengths and weaknesses, and the degree to which it has been successful is known only to God! Every ‘system’ involving human beings needs its ‘checks and balances’. At their worst, both clergy and parishioners can become remarkably insular in their outlook, and can come to overly treasure ‘their’ way of doing things. Our Bishops exercise their ministry to remind us that we are part of something bigger and more dynamic than a village club or a gathering of the like-minded.

Background 1.0.2 The Weardale Line was originally part of the Stockton and Darlington Railway, which was the first public passenger steam railway in the world. The extent of the line which remains today was once part of a much wider network in the Bishop Auckland area. 1.0.3 It had played an important role for many years, especially for people commuting to and from work in the Darlington and Tees Valley areas as well as transporting bulk materials from the cement works at Eastgate until its closure in the early 1990's. 1.0.4 Two railway museums have since been located adjacent to the line.....one at the North Road station in Darlington and more recently, the National Railway Museum Annex, Locomotion, at Shildon.

  • Settlement Profiles
    Settlement Profiles Local Plan Evidence Base www.doncaster.gov.uk Doncaster Settlement Profiles 1.1. As part of the emerging Local Plan, a Settlement Audit was undertaken in 2014 to better understand the service provision across the borough, which in turn helped to determine the Local Plan Settlement Hierarchy. This process is dealt with at length in both the Settlement Audit and the Settlement Background Paper. 1.2. However, some consultation responses to the Settlement Audit and the Homes and Settlements consultation intimated that the Settlement Audit could be further expanded on and clarified. 1.3. As such, the following profiles have been developed which seeks to provide portraits of each defined settlement within the borough (the Main Urban Area; 7 Main Towns; 10 Service Towns and Villages; and 12 Defined Villages). 1.4. Each portrait will expand on the results of the Settlement Audit, and will provide ‘profiles’ for each settlement, dealing with social, economic and environmental matters, as per the Settlement Audit. 1.5. Occasionally, some scores or information published in the Settlement Audit Update (2017) have been amended. These amendments and the rationale are presented overleaf in Table A. 1.6. Information about the Settlement Hierarchy and allocations within each settlement are provided in the Settlement Background Paper and Site Selection Methodology. For convenience, a number of abridged settlement profiles have also been provided in the Settlement Housing Summaries. 1 Settlement Amendment Rationale Change to Scores? Auckley – Settlement scores merged Settlement made up of two Scores now reflect the combined settlement proposed Hayfield Community Profile Areas so in the Settlement Hierarchy.

  • 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.
