High Greenfield & Keepers Cottage High Greenfield & Keepers Cottage, Beckermonds, Buckden, Skipton £435,000 £435,000 High Greenfield & Keepers Cottage, Beckermonds, Buckden, Skipton BD23 5JP TWO ADJOINING PROPERTIES FOR SALE, ENJOYING A TRULY SPLENDID RURAL SETTING, LITERALLY AWAY FROM ANYONE ELSE AND WITH SPECTACULAR VIEWS ACROSS SURROUNDING FOREST AND ROLLING COUNTRYSIDE. For anyone wanting to properly 'get away from it all' High Greenfield & Keepers Cottage should be high on their list. The two properties are adjoining each other but entirely separate, affording the opportunity for a holiday cottage, or for a relative to live next door. The two paddocks to the rear provide good grazing (total site area is 2.8 acres or thereabouts) and there are also 4 barns of varying sizes offering potential for a range of flexible business opportunities. The small community of Beckermonds is situated in the picturesque Upper Wharfe Valley and is where the River Wharfe is formed, by the confluence of Oughtershaw Beck and Greenfield Beck - Beckermonds derives its name from the original Nordic name of Begermons meaning "the meeting of the two streams". It is a wonderful and unspoilt setting, displaying some of the most spectacular scenery you will see within the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Whilst it is a small community in its own right, the nearest pub is 4 miles away (The George at Hubberholme) and the hamlet is on the famous Dalesway route with various outdoor pursuits and places of interest situated close by. Located just 8.5 miles away is the popular Dales village of Kettlewell which offers a delightful range of tea rooms, pubs, village shop and Kettlewell Primary School.

  • Faecal Bacteria Data from Samples Collected on the 24Th August 2020
    Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWHARFE Improving water quality on the River Wharfe from Oughtershaw to the Ouse A citizen science project Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWharfe is a citizen science project. It involves members of communities along the Wharfe valley, working together with the Environment Agency, Yorkshire Water and other agencies. It is funded by local donations and grants. The project was designed to provide a snapshot of water quality condi- tions along the entire length of the river on a single day and to raise awareness about water quality issues both for people and wildlife. Water samples were collected on the 24th August 2020. Here we report on results from samples analysed for faecal bacteria, the organisms in wastewater that cause gastro-intestinal illness. Executive Summary 1. The R. Wharfe “Big Health Check” on the 24th August 2020 involved five teams of citizen scien- tists taking water samples from 60 sites along the R. Wharfe at approximately the same time on the same day. 2. Although riverflow was relatively high, conditions were similar along the full length of the river. 3. Samples for faecal bacteria analysis were stored in cool boxes and hand-delivered to a collection point in Wakefield. They were analysed for E. coli and Intestinal Enterococci (IE) at ALS Ltd Cov- entry, an accredited microbiology laboratory, within 24 hours of sampling. 4. The results showed high concentrations of both E. coli and IE at sites between Buckden and Barden Bridge in Upper Wharfedale and at Beanlands Island in Ilkley, relatively low concentra- tions in Langstrothdale and in the stretch from Bolton Abbey to Ilkley Suspension Bridge, and var- iable concentrations downstream from Burley to the Ouse confluence at Cawood.

These are East areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good Yorkshire decision-making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

In 2019 there were 136 storm discharge events. The group’s campaign has attracted national media attention. The campaign was supported by a local citizen science study of faecal bacteria concentrations in the water and surveys of people at risk of infection playing, paddling and swimming in the river in Ilkley. The group has submitted a bid for Designated Bathing Water Status, supported by Ilkley Town Council, Bradford Metropolitan District Council, the Environment Agency and Yorkshire Water to Defra. A full account of the Ashlands campaign including data on faecal bacterial concentrations in the river can be found on the ICRG website: https://sites.google.com/view/cleanwharfeilkley/home iWHARFE objectives The iWHARFE project builds on the Ashlands project by extending it geographically to include the full length of the river from Oughtershaw in Upper Wharfedale down to Cawood at the confluence of the Lower Wharfe and the Ouse.

  • Wood End, Hubberholme Direction Was Given to Prevent Accidental Disturbance to the Local Water Supply
    Countryside and Rights of Way (CROW) Act 2000 REVIEW OF STATUTORY DIRECTION(S) – PROPOSED CHANGE TO EXISTING DIRECTION(S) SUMMARY FOR PUBLIC CONSULTATION Prepared by Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority 1. INFORMATION ABOUT THE PUBLIC CONSULTATION Access Authority: Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority Relevant Authority: Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority Local Access Forum: Yorkshire Dales Local Access Forum Original direction reference: 2004120016 Land Parcel Name: Details of restriction on original direction Direction to exclude the public from Wood End for a period of five years. The Wood End, Hubberholme direction was given to prevent accidental disturbance to the local water supply. The Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority has begun a review of the above long term direction in accordance with statutory guidance. A consultation has been held with statutory consultees and the general public that sought views on the existing direction. Under Part 1 (Chapter II, Sections 24) of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000, the applicant, applied for a direction, in 2005, to restrict access on open access land at Wood End, Hubberholme. The application requested the exclusion of all CROW access rights due to the possible risks of disruption and contamination of a water supply. The Relevant Authority (the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority) put in place a direction for the complete exclusion of CROW rights from the site for five years, from May 2005 to May 2010 inclusive. Due to the topography of the land, the vulnerability of the existing water supply infrastructure, and a predicted increase in access to the site, there was a strong possibility that disruption to the water supply could occur accidentally, causing significant disruption to the local community and businesses.

  • The Dales Way Guided Trail
    The Dales Way Guided Trail Tour Style: Guided Trails Destinations: Yorkshire Dales & England Trip code: MDLDD Trip Walking Grade: 4 HOLIDAY OVERVIEW The Dales Way was one of the earliest "unofficial" long distance routes. For most of its 79 miles it shuns the craggy tops and summit ridges to keep to the valley bottoms. It is, in essence, a riverside route linking existing rights of way to cross the Yorkshire Dales in a south-east to north-west direction. It connects the urban fringe of Ilkley to the shores of Windermere by way of Wharfedale, Dentdale and Eastern Lakeland. Wildlife is rich and varied: rivers provide habitat for a wide range of birds and the Wharfe is noted for its trout, often seen leaping out of the water on summer days. WHAT'S INCLUDED • High quality en-suite accommodation in our country house • Full board from dinner upon arrival to breakfast on departure day • The services of an HF Holidays' walks leader • All transport on walking days www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 1 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 HOLIDAYS HIGHLIGHTS • The complete Dales Way from Ilkley to Bowness • Meander through beautiful Yorkshire Dales scenery • Stay at Newfield Hall, Malhamdale TRIP SUITABILITY This Guided Walking/Hiking Trail is graded 4 which involves walks /hikes over long distances in remote countryside and rough terrain.
