  • Malcolm Saville and North Yorkshire Stephen Bigger, 2011
    Malcolm Saville and North Yorkshire Stephen Bigger, 2011 Fictitious Spaunton near Goathland (in Mystery Mine) is named after the village of Spaunton near Kirkbymoorside. © Stephen Bigger 2011 1 Preface Most of my papers on Malcolm Saville start life in the magazine of the Malcolm Saville Society, Acksherley! and assume that readers have some knowledge of the books discussed. (Acksherley! was a Lone Pine catch-phrase). For on-line readers, here is some background. Malcolm Saville wrote for children between 1943 and 1982, the year of his death. Saville was not a full-time writer, but worked full-time for various publishers. His average of 6 or 7 books per year during his working life is remarkable. He encouraged his young readers to write to him and he endeavoured to give them personal responses. The effect of this is that a society has grown up as these children, as adults, come together for regular gatherings and outings. I personally did not read much Saville as a child – only Saucers over the Moor as a 14 year old – and neither wrote or received a reply, so my interest is somewhat out of the ordinary. I write as a social historian, and examine the background of stories to shed a window of light on life in the 1940s to 1960s, the time I grew up. The stories consist of holiday-time adventures: his best-known series is of the Lone Pine Club, consisting to 20 full-length stories. The paper below discusses his 1959 Lone Pine title, Mystery Mine, set near Goathland and Whitby.

  • Appleton Le Moors, Lastingham & Spaunton Parish Report 2013
    Appleton le Moors, Lastingham & Spaunton Parish Report 2013 Background You may remember the Government’s ‘Vital Villages’ initiative that funded research into the needs of rural communities. As a consequence of that programme “Parish Plans” were produced by Appleton le Moors in 2004 and Lastingham in 2005. Rural Action Yorkshire suggested we update the plans and combine our efforts because three villages (including Spaunton) would have greater potential to influence the decision makers and obtain funding for projects in the future. Another important benefit will be to provide feedback which informs our local volunteers on the Parish Council and at Parish Meetings. There has not been a grant this time but Ryedale District Council provided administrative support and we have been supported by Margaret Farey of Rural Action Yorkshire. We are grateful for their contributions. Method The 2013 Parish Report was produced by Janet Hayton (Appleton le Moors), Sir Michael Carlisle (Lastingham) and John Cawley (Spaunton). The group informally consulted community and local voluntary networks before compiling the questionnaire which was largely based on previous questionnaires. It was then circulated by hand to each household. There were also options to complete the questionnaire on-line through the RDC website or via the Appleton le Moors website. RDC collated and input your responses, including transcribing the comments. They also produced the graphs and the final format of the report. 80 questionnaires were returned and many of you took the time to write in more detail about particular issues and offered your ideas. The 2013 Parish Report consolidates your responses and summarises the results as “Potential Areas for Improvements”.

It seeks the origin ofthe parish system in the 7th century with the establishment of monasteria in accordance with the theory, the 'minster' hypothesis, that these were the minsters of the Middle Ages and the ancient parish churches of today. The territory of the monasterium, its parochia, was that of the secular royal vill, because kings granted these lands with the intention that monasteries provided pastoral care to the royal vill.

  • Foreword by Viscountess Downe
    Foreword by Viscountess Downe My first memory of Danby Lodge reaches back to September 1966, just a year after my marriage to my late husband John, when we came up for the annual grouse-shooting season. We soon realised that these historic buildings, set in the beautiful surroundings of the Esk Valley, would make an ideal information centre for the National Park. In May 1976 we were delighted when this vision was finally realised with the Lodge opening its doors to visitors for the first time. Since then the Moors Centre has provided a focal point for the tens of thousands of visitors who come each year from near and far to experience and enjoy the heather moors and learn more about the history and culture of this fascinating area. Sadly, the magnificent copper beech tree that graced the front of the Lodge has now been lost. However, I was heartened to see the memory of this noble tree living on through the imaginative History Tree Project. In 2010 the North Yorkshire Moors Association placed an inscribed commemorative plate where the tree once stood. And now the publication of this attractive book – a varied collection of essays and photographs – brings new life and meaning to the story of the Tree and will inspire a greater understanding and appreciation of our irreplaceable National Park and the natural world which we all share. Wykeham Abbey 7 North Yorkshire The History Tree Plate at the Moors Centre 8 Introduction ne winter’s day in early 2007, a truly awful sound Looking at the empty space today, where the vast echoed around the Esk Valley.

The Register provides an Wannual snapshot of historic sites known to be at risk from neglect, decay or inappropriate development. Nationally, there are more barrows on the Register than any other type of site. The main risk to their survival is ploughing. The good news is that since 2014 we have reduced the number of barrows at risk by over 130, by working with owners and, in particular, Natural England to improve their management. This picture is repeated in Yorkshire, where the greatest concentration of barrows at risk is in the rich farmland of the Wolds.
