However, in the electronic age, these precious collections are often forgotten and when remembered, can only be viewed using cumbersome equipment. Not any more. Since 1938, ProQuest Information & Learning have been providing institutions around the world with access to research collections, periodicals and newspapers in microfilm format. We have always recognised the importance of the materials contained in microfilm for academic study and have worked with institutions to make these available to students and researchers around the globe. We are pleased to introduce the ST200, a revolutionary digital microfilm viewer-scanner system that makes microfilm as easy to access as the internet. This unique system utilises the PCs in your institution to provide clear images of your microfilm collections which can be printed out, emailed or copied to CD-ROM. 2 The ST200: Top-quality images, flexible Key features: • Links to your existing PCs imaging • Exceptionally clear scanned images with •Prints on your existing network printer It's easy to view, zoom, invert polarity, crop, even light and contrast for true archival • Looks and acts like a PC scan, flip, burn to CD, send to email and quality • Displays microfilm images on the more in real time via high-end video, • View images in real-time, a live digital computer screen itself complete with extreme zooming and video feed sent directly to the PC monitor • Allows users to email or save images to autofocus.

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.

It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children, the elderly, and those with existing heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues because areas with poor air quality are also often less affluent areas1,2. The mortality burden of air pollution within the UK is equivalent to 28,000 to 36,000 deaths at typical ages3, with a total estimated healthcare cost to the NHS and social care of £157 million in 20174.

  • East Yorkshire Borough Council Election Results 1973-1991
    East Yorkshire Borough Council Election Results 1973-1991 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

  • The Diocese of York the Deanery of South Wold Deanery Plan 2012
    The Diocese of York The Deanery of South Wold ‘A network of churches serving Rural communities’ Deanery Plan 2012 1 Mission Statement: The South Wold Deanery exists to provide a network of mutual support for churches • by encouraging one another in worship • by seeking God's will for our communities • by linking congregations to each other and to the wider church • by the sharing of gifts and resources The South Wold Deanery Synod aims to provide a bridge between the Diocese and Parish, and to be a space where all can be heard and valued and feel part of a greater whole. Deanery Prayer: We give thanks for the life and witness of all the churches in our Deanery, and pray that through the process of formulating a new Deanery Plan, God will give us fresh vision and energy to support one another, to share resources and to build bridges within our communities. Methodology: Whilst the Deanery Plan has been ‘top down’ in terms of the planned loss of stipendary posts, it was felt essential to allow the voice of each church to be heard. Each congregation or PCC was asked to respond individually to the paper ‘Changing Expectations’ and the accompanying discussion document. The result of this approach has been very positive. Most have attempted to grapple with the issue of ageing demography and increased ministerial work‐ load. Various different approaches have been suggested, which we have tried to reflect in the Action Plan. Two benefices (Garrowby Hill and Holme on Spalding Moor) have chosen to speak collectively; all the rest have responded individually.

  • 299 the Collection of Tumuli, Known As Danes' Graves, Occur on the Wolds
    Downloaded from http://pygs.lyellcollection.org/ at University of Iowa on May 24, 2015 299 NOTES ON THE DANES1 GRAVES NEAR DRIFFIELD. BY THE REV. E. MAULE COLE, M.A., F.G.S. The collection of tumuli, known as Danes' Graves, occur on the Wolds, at the junction of three parishes—Great Driffield, Nafferton, and Kilham. They are actually in the parish of Great Driffield, though in some reports they are described as being in the parish of Kilham. They are situated immediately to the south of a line of entrenchments which, roughly speaking, extends from Flamborough Head to Garrowby Hill top. This line of entrench• ments is remarkable for the fact that it forms the boundaries of all parishes from York to Flamborough. It is more or less sinuous, and, in all probability, marks the track of an ancient British way from Eburac (our modern York) to the coast. It may have been utilized by the Romans after their conquest of the country, as there is evidence (obtained by my friend, Mr. J. R. Mortimer) of a Roman- British cemetery on both sides of the road, in the parish of Wetwang- with-Fimber, but I think that the Romans constructed another road in the rear, at a higher elevation, from Fridaythorpe, through Sledmere and Octon to Bridlington Bay, known as the High Street. The site of Pretorium, mentioned in the itinerary of Antonine, has long been a matter of dispute, and is so still, but when it is con• sidered that the Romans would probably wish to have access by sea to such an important place as Eburacum, then the capital of Britannia, it is not improbable that they would select the shortest land route, to which an ancient British way already pointed.

  • The History of Kirby Underdale
    Leighton THE HISTORY OF KIRBY UNDERDALE BY THE Rev. W. R. SHEPHERD, M.A., Rector of Kirby Underdale and Rural Dean of Pocklington. BATLEY : J. S. NEWSOME SON, CENTRAL. PRINTING WORKS. 1928. PREFACE. IN collecting and thus making available the existing records, Mr. Shepherd has laid those who love Kirby Underdale village and parish under a great debt of gratitude. We do not always appreciate how truly we are the creatures of history, or how the customs of the countryside, the very structure of the village, the objects and landscape which are so familiar, have all naturally grown from the doings of past generations of men whose homes were our homes, who wor- shipped where we worship, who owned and tilled the same soil, who scanned no less anxiously than we the signs of the weather, and whose general wisdom and experience is incor- porated for us in a surviving body of folk-lore and local custom. It is pleasant to trace in these pages some of the old footprints that the centuries have stamped upon our parish, and to note the continuance of the same families, such as, for example, that of Boyes, serving the same trade in the same place for nearly 200 years. It is good too as we look forward to know what we may of that which lies behind, so that we view the procession of life, in which we now play our part, in more true perspective. For me, and for all my family, Garrowby has always held a place peculiarly its own. My father and mother had always loved it, and I remember the delight with which as children we used to be taken out riding by my father, and how a gallop on our ponies down the dales by Wareham, Bradeholme and Thixendale, turning our heads for home through Brown Moor and Hanging Grimston seemed the height of human happiness.

  • East Riding of Yorkshire Important Landscape Areas Boundary Refinement
    East Riding of Yorkshire Important Landscape Areas Boundary Refinement Scope of Work Golder Associates (UK) Ltd (Golder) was commissioned by East Riding of Yorkshire Council (ERYC) in July 2013 to review and map the definitive boundaries of the ‘Important Landscape Areas’ (ILAs) as defined by Policy ENV2 of the draft Local Plan 2013-2029. (Policy ENV 2 is included in Appendix A of this report). There are six ILAs within the Draft Local Plan area: The Yorkshire Wolds; Heritage Coast at Flamborough; Heritage Coast Spurn; River Derwent Corridor; Lower Derwent Valley and Pocklington Canal; and Thorne, Crowle and Goole Moors. The ILAs are based on the East Riding of Yorkshire Landscape Character Assessment, 2005 and their boundaries generally coincide with the high quality Landscape Character Areas identified at the time. (The key attributes of the ILA based on the corresponding LCA are listed in Appendix B) The objective of this commission was to redefine and rationalise the boundaries of the ILAs (currently plotted at 120,000 scale) to align them where possible to geographical features such as roads, rivers and field boundaries, taking into account the key characteristics of each LCA and the objectives of the designation. The work will support the landscape evidence for the emerging East Riding Local Plan. Method for refining the boundaries of the ‘Important Landscape Areas’ The method employed for refining and updating the boundaries is set out below: The existing ‘regional scale’ boundaries were superimposed onto larger scale OS base maps and their alignment was assessed in relation to key landscape characteristics and evidence from the 2005 Landscape Character Assessment.
