    Hull History Centre: Papers of the Barnards Family of South Cave U DDBA Papers of the Barnards Family 1401-1945 of South Cave Historical background: The papers relate to the branch of the family headed by Leuyns Boldero Barnard who began building up a landed estate centred on South Cave in the mid-eighteenth century. His inherited ancestry can be traced back to William and Elizabeth Barnard in the late sixteenth century. Their son, William Barnard, became mayor of Hull and died in 1614. Of his seven sons, two of them also served time as mayor of Hull, including the sixth son, Henry Barnard (d.1661), through whose direct descendants Leuyns Boldero Barnard was eventually destined to succeed. Henry Barnard, married Frances Spurrier and together had a son and a daughter. His daughter, Frances, married William Thompson MP of Humbleton and his son, Edward Barnard, who lived at North Dalton, was recorder of Hull and Beverley from the early 1660s until 1686 when he died. He and his wife Margaret, who was also from the Thompson family, had at least seven children, the eldest of whom, Edward Barnard (d.1714), had five children some of whom died without issue and some had only female heirs. The second son, William Barnard (d.1718) married Mary Perrot, the daughter of a York alderman, but had no children. The third son, Henry Barnard (will at U DDBA/14/3), married Eleanor Lowther, but he also died, in 1769 at the age of 94, without issue. From the death of Henry Barnard in 1769 the family inheritance moved laterally.

ROADS AND TURNPIKE TRUSTS IN EASTERN YORKSHIRE by K. A. MACMAHON, Senior Staff Tutor in Local History, The University of Hull © East YQrk.;hiT~ Local History Society '96' ROADS AND TURNPIKE TRUSTS IN EASTERN YORKSHIRE A major purpose of this survey is to discuss the ongms, evolution and eventual decline of the turnpike trusts in eastern Yorkshire. The turnpike trust was essentially an ad hoc device to ensure the conservation, construction and repair of regionaIly important sections of public highway and its activities were cornple­ menrary and ancillary to the recognised contemporary methods of road maintenance which were based on the parish as the adminis­ trative unit. As a necessary introduction to this theme, therefore, this essay will review, with appropriate local and regional illustration, certain major features ofroad history from medieval times onwards, and against this background will then proceed to consider the history of the trusts in East Yorkshire and the roads they controlled. Based substantially on extant record material, notice will be taken of various aspects of administration and finance and of the problems ofthe trusts after c. 1840 when evidence oftheir decline and inevit­ able extinction was beginning to be apparent. .. * * * Like the Romans two thousand years ago, we ofthe twentieth century tend to regard a road primarily as a continuous strip ofwel1 prepared surface designed for the easy and speedy movement ofman and his transport vehicles.

  • Appendix A: Background Cultural Heritage Context
    Appendix A: Background Cultural Heritage Context Archaeological Sites The East Riding, and the c.980sqkm selected for the SEA Addendum study area, has been shaped by man’s activities over the past 10,000 years. As a result, the area contains a rich heritage of archaeological sites (both designated and non-designated), dating from the early prehistoric periods to the 20th century, which reflect the region’s varied social and economic history. The Prehistoric Periods (up to c.700 BC) The earliest phases of prehistoric occupation are generally characterised by an increasing exploitation of the natural landscape and its resources. Artefactual evidence suggests that there was a human presence in Holderness during the Palaeolithic period, and several sites have been identified within the River Hull corridor; one flint-working site at Brigham was excavated in 1962-63 in advance of gravel extraction. Climatic improvements after the Devensian ice age led to the re- establishment of forests, and plants and animals became available for exploitation. While Holderness saw some transient human activity in the later Mesolithic period (c.8300-4000 BC), there was also a significant population on the Wolds, centred on ‘activity areas’ associated with ponds and springs. The number and density of sites on the Wolds implies that this higher land was well-populated during the subsequent Neolithic period (c.4000-2500 BC). Although initially a pastoral society, the gradual introduction of grain crops resulted in a more widespread mixed agricultural regime. The construction of large communal burial mounds as well as other sacred or ritual sites, such as henges, cursus and mortuary enclosures, suggests that there was an organised, community-based society.

Each site is clearly signed with the “Box Brownie” camera sign or blue “Police speed check area” sign. Please note that the guidelines governing the conspicuity of the sites have nothing whatsoever ever to do with a speeding offence and are adhere to only at core safety camera sites.

Please be aware that different classifications of vehicles will have to adhere to different speed limits. It is the driver’s responsibility to know what restrictions apply to their vehicle. National speed limits The national speed limit sign is a round white sign with a black diagonal across it. At the current time signs can only be placed at the start of a national speed limit zone. Repeater signs are not required along unlit sections of national speed limit roads. The national speed limit on single carriageway sections is a maximum of 60mph for cars and motorcycles, less for other type of vehicles.
