Hessle Haven and Foreshore Walk Stroll along the Hessle Foreshore for views of the Humber, its bridge and its shipping. A circular walk of 1.7 miles (2.7 km). This route is relatively flat but contains one hill and two bridges - one with a spiral ramp. Take care when crossing roads. Start with an uphill path from Cliff Road, by the foreshore. Find the public footpath between Riverside Court and St Mary's Close and follow it up the steady rise to Redcliff Road where our route turns to the right. Just past the house called Cheriton (No. 2 Redcliff Road), take the access on the left and cross the footbridge over the A63-Clive Sullivan Way, and the railway line. At the other side continue straight along Station Road and follow it round to the right where it becomes Ferry Road. Just after No.44, continue to another footbridge crossing the railway and A63 and descend the spiral at the far side. You are now on Livingstone Road by Hessle Haven, once a busy wharf with an active shipyard - Dunstans. Follow the bank of the Haven and take the footpath at the start of the Yorkshire Wolds Way. Continue along the foreshore path, now known as Jean's Walk, passing the recreation ground and the Wolds Way feature to return to the start. Parking Cliff Road Car Park - Hessle Additional Information - In January 2005 a replica of an ancient boat set out in the shadow of the Humber Bridge to re-enact part of a 4,000 year old journey. The boat, named 'Oakleaf' floated in the estuary just a short distance from the site where the oak timbers of 3 Bronze Age planked vessels were excavated at North Ferriby by amateur archaeologist Ted Wright between 1937 and 1963. The sail training ship Sir Winston Churchill was built in Dunstan's Shipyard on the Haven in 1966. .

Issue 3 Autumn 2011 Agatha Christie's Disappearance
The Yorkshire Journal Issue 3 Autumn 2011 In this issue: Agatha Christie’s Disappearance Yorkshire’s Seaside Piers Wharram Percy a Lost Medieval Village Winifred Holtby: A Reappraisal The Disappearance of a Roman Mosaic Withernsea Pier Entrance Towers Above: All that remain of the Withernsea Pier are the historic entrance towers which were modelled on Conwy Castle. The pier was built in 1877 at a cost £12,000 and was nearly 1,200 feet long. The pier was gradually reduced in length through consecutive impacts by local sea craft, starting with the Saffron in 1880 then the collision by an unnamed ship in 1888. Then following a collision with a Grimsby fishing boat and finally by the ship Henry Parr in 1893. This left the once-grand pier with a mere 50 feet of damaged wood and steel. Town planners decided to remove the final section during sea wall construction in 1903. The Pier Towers have recently been refurbished. In front of the entrance towers is a model of how the pier would have once looked.

Rudston RUDSTON COMMUNITY Newsletter Also available, in full colour, on line at :- February www.rudston.org.uk/newsletter 2020 This month’s Newsletter is kindly sponsored by: Hall Bros Fuels & Heating 1 Editor’s Letter Dear Everyone, May I offer a belated Happy and Healthy New Year to all the resi- dents of Rudston. We are having problems with the printer again, so apologies for the fact that this edition will probably be late. Welcome to anyone who has recently come to live in our lovely village. For those who are keen to be involved in village activities, there is a list of people, whom you can contact on the back page. Thank you to all those people who have sent good wishes on my recovery following a broken ankle. It is a long process, but things are improving. They say that misfortunes come in threes; well I can cer- tainly attest to that. When we returned from a wonderful cruise at the end of October, we realised that I had left my IPad in the cabin. I thought that I wouldn’t see it again, but I am informed that it will be re- turned to me in March...it is at present enjoying its own cruise around the Caribbean. Then followed the afore mentioned break and when I returned from hospital, what should I find in the post, but a speeding fine. ..in over 50 years of driving, I have never so much as incurred a parking fine! Hopefully that is the end of my misfortunes for the time being anyway! It was a shame that the Village Hall Party had to be cancelled, but it did seem that lots of people had previous engagements.

Considering the Significance of the Yorkshire Wolds Landscape
The Post Hole Issue 33 Considering the significance of the Yorkshire Wolds landscape Dr Cath Neal1 1Department of Archaeology, University of York, The King’s Manor, York, YO1 7EP Email: [email protected] The chalk Wolds of East and North Yorkshire comprise a lightly settled rural landscape dominated by agricultural activity and they are the northernmost expanse of English chalk, forming an arc between the Humber Estuary and Flamborough Head (Figure 1). The Wolds rise steeply from the Vales to the north and west, and more gradually from the plain to the east, to a maximum height of 200m above ordnance datum, covering an area of 1350km². The area is characterised by deeply incised dry valleys and low rolling hills (Figure 2). There is a general absence of surface watercourses on the Yorkshire Wolds, with the Gypsey Race the single exception, and even this is seasonal in places. There are geological contrasts in this region, with the soft drift of Holderness, the chalk Wold ridge and the sandstones of the North Yorkshire Moors compressing a wide range of landscape diversity into a relatively small area (Roberts and Wrathmell 2000, 47). Figure 1. Distribution of chalk in England (after Stoertz 1997 ). The distinctive inverted ‘L- shape’ of the Yorkshire Wolds, results largely from the folding of the chalk that took place during the Tertiary period, and this resulted in the shallow syncline that forms the Lincolnshire and Yorkshire Wolds (Catt 1987, 13). Towards Holderness in the east, the chalk dips below substantial www.theposthole.org 13 The Post Hole Issue 33 Quaternary deposits and towards the west.

Case Studies the Yorkshire Wolds Way Sculpture Trail
Rural Development Programme for England/LEADER East Riding of Yorkshire and North Yorkshire (Ryedale District and Scarborough Borough) LEADER Local Action Group Coast, Wolds, Wetlands & Waterways Case Studies The Yorkshire Wolds Way Sculpture Trail All Funding Sources & Project Total Funding source: RDPE LEADER CWWW - £150,000 ACE - £ 80,000 Total £230,000 Start Date: 17 th July 2009 End Date: 31 st July 2011 Lead Organisation: Visit Hull & East Yorkshire Location: Yorkshire Wolds Location of Project Manager / Registered Office: HU1 1UU Project Summary The Yorkshire Wolds Way, one of 13 designated National Trails in the UK, runs for 79 miles from the banks of the Humber at Hessle, through the dramatic dry chalk valleys of the Yorkshire Wolds, to the North Sea coast at Filey Brigg. Recent research commissioned by Natural England identified that it is the least well known, and least well used, of all of the country’s National Trails. One of VHEY’s key objectives is to promote the Yorkshire Wolds in order to increase visitor numbers and spend. The Yorkshire Wolds Way is recognised as a significant, but under used, tourism asset. This project will raise the profile of the Wolds Way and expand its cultural ‘offer’ in a highly competitive market. It will also engage local communities and encourage more use and appreciation of the Wolds by those living and working in the area. The vision for the Yorkshire Wolds Way Sculpture Trail is of a series of enduring landmarks created by artists, to enhance enjoyment of the surrounding landscape and to promote a wider appreciation of its unique qualities.
