MOUNTAIN RINGLET SURVEY SQUARES 2014 – NOTES FOR SURVEYORS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: The following relates only to dedicated Mountain Ringlet searches. For casual records please use our website “Sightings” page where possible. Click on sightings report on: www.cumbria-butterflies.org.uk/sightings/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- We’d welcome surveys in any of the squares listed below, but are particularly interested in those marked * and +, ie where there have been recent positive sightings well away from known colonies or discovery of possible new colonies. The areas to be surveyed fall into 3 groups, in colour below, but also suffixed (1), (2) or (3) for those with black & white printers etc. 1. Grid squares that have previous positive sightings (shown in red) (1) 2. Grid squares adjacent to the above (shown in blue) (2) 3. Grid squares that are previously unrecorded but may have potential to hold Mountain Ringlet populations (shown in green) (3) The objective of these surveys is to try to determine the geographical spread of some known colonies, but also to survey areas that have suitable geology and which may hold previously unrecorded Mountain Ringlet populations. All the 1-km grid squares listed below lie in the 100-km square: NY AREA 1 - LANGDALE 2608 Martcrag Moor / Stake Pass (2) 2607 (north-east corner only) Part of Martcrag Moor (2) 2806 (northern edge) Raven Crag (1) 2807 Harrison Stickle (1) 2710 (eastern half only) -

There is also a need to provide the schools, health and leisure services. These services are provided by a range of organisations but there is currently little or no integration of that provision to meet the needs of existing communities nor their future needs. The preparation of an integrated Infrastructure Plan is essential for local authorities and their partners to fulfil their place shaping role. The revised Planning Policy Statement 12 (PPS12)1 identifies the Core Strategy as the to ensure that sus considered sound , the Core Strategy must identify the infrastructure requirements for its area; who will provide it and when. The production of an integrated Infrastructure Plan will also yield significant benefits for their partner organisations need to actively engage in the process. Revisions to Planning Policy Statement 122 have meant that local planning authorities are now required to demonstrate a reasonable prospect of infrastructure delivery in relation to land allocations for development. -
The Mason Family, Yeomen Farmers of Kirkby in Furness
The Mason family, Yeomen farmers of Kirkby in Furness 1. Introduction My father, John Robertson Mason, was born at Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria in 1911, the only son of a railway engineer. However, he told us that his forebears came originally from the village of Kirkby Ireleth, some 9 miles to the north on the shore of the Duddon estuary. This is indeed the case, going back to around 1700 at least, and this is the story of his family, as far as we have been able to discover. We made an assumption early on that Richard Mason, the long serving Locomotive Superintendent of the Furness Railway was probably also a member of our family, but this was very quickly seen not to be the case. 2. The parish of Kirkby Ireleth Though the area is nowadays commonly known as Kirkby-in-Furness, the civil parish is still called Kirkby Ireleth. This is the source of some confusion, since there is no such village of that name within it; there is a village called simply “Ireleth” but that is some distance to the south, and actually situated in the parish of Dalton! The Domesday Book refers to the area as “Cherchebei”, which means “Village by the Church”, hence the Kirkby part, and was the seat of the Kirkby family, whose earliest recorded mention is in 1204. The Kirkby family was active in the persecution of Quakers, and attempted to seize the lands of Margaret Fell, a founder member of that movement, who was born at Marsh Grange. Both her surname and this property feature prominently in our family history.
