The report provides geological information about the Northern England region to underpin the process of national geological screening set out in the UK’s government White Paper Implementing geological disposal: a framework for the long-term management of higher activity radioactive waste (DECC, 2014). The report describes geological features relevant to the safety requirements of a geological disposal facility (GDF) for radioactive waste emplaced onshore and up to 20 km offshore at depths between 200 and 1000 m from surface. It is written for a technical audience but is intended to inform RWM in its discussions with communities interested in finding out about the potential for their area to host a GDF. i Contents Foreword

  • Folk Song in Cumbria: a Distinctive Regional
    FOLK SONG IN CUMBRIA: A DISTINCTIVE REGIONAL REPERTOIRE? A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Susan Margaret Allan, MA (Lancaster), BEd (London) University of Lancaster, November 2016 ABSTRACT One of the lacunae of traditional music scholarship in England has been the lack of systematic study of folk song and its performance in discrete geographical areas. This thesis endeavours to address this gap in knowledge for one region through a study of Cumbrian folk song and its performance over the past two hundred years. Although primarily a social history of popular culture, with some elements of ethnography and a little musicology, it is also a participant-observer study from the personal perspective of one who has performed and collected Cumbrian folk songs for some forty years. The principal task has been to research and present the folk songs known to have been published or performed in Cumbria since circa 1900, designated as the Cumbrian Folk Song Corpus: a body of 515 songs from 1010 different sources, including manuscripts, print, recordings and broadcasts. The thesis begins with the history of the best-known Cumbrian folk song, ‘D’Ye Ken John Peel’ from its date of composition around 1830 through to the late twentieth century. From this narrative the main themes of the thesis are drawn out: the problem of defining ‘folk song’, given its eclectic nature; the role of the various collectors, mediators and performers of folk songs over the years, including myself; the range of different contexts in which the songs have been performed, and by whom; the vexed questions of ‘authenticity’ and ‘invented tradition’, and the extent to which this repertoire is a distinctive regional one.

William Hibbert Marshall, owner of Patterdale Hall, donated a piece of land to allow for the building of a permanent Monument in February 1921 on the shores of Ullswater, midway between Glenridding and Patterdale. The memorial slab was hewn from a twenty ton piece of local slate and the eventual undressed slate stone still weighs in at around 5 tons. It was unveiled in October 1921. As part of the 100th Anniversary Commemoration of the outbreak of World War One, we have tried to find out more about the men whose names are inscribed on the Memorial, from both World Wars, on the Roll of Honour in the Village Hall, and also about life in and around Patterdale and Glenridding at the time.

    COLTON COMMUNITY PLAN 2015 Main photo: Rusland valley looking west towards the Coniston Fells. © Teresa Morris Map: Ordnance Survey. © Crown Copyright 2005 Colton Parish Community Plan 2015 Introduction Topics, Policies and Actions 1. The Local Economy 2. Landscape and the Natural Environment 3. Communities and Well-Being 4. Housing and Other Development 5. Roads, Traffic and Transport 6. Energy and Sustainability Annexes Annex A: Community Plan Working Group Members Annex B: Action Plan Annex C: Community Transport Schemes Map of Colton Parish (back page) 1 Introduction Purpose Community Plans set out the issues that local people value about their neighbourhoods, and their aspirations for the future. They tend to be based on civil parish areas (like Colton) or groups of parishes. It is essential that that such Plans properly reflect the values, opinions, needs and aspirations of the community, and that they should be community-led, facilitated by the Parish Council. Principal authorities (in Colton’s case: Cumbria County Council and South Lakeland District Council) and planning authorities (in Colton’s case: the Lake District National Park Authority), are increasingly using these Plans to guide local policy and inform planning decisions. The purpose of this Plan is to set out policies and action plans for the future of the Parish. To this end, invitations to join a Community Plan Working Group brought together people from all three wards of our large rural parish, including parish councillors and the parish clerk. Working group members and contributors are listed in Annex A. Background Colton Civil Parish is a sparsely populated rural area of about 20 square miles within the southern part of the Lake District National Park, spanning three valleys running north-south: Coniston Water and the Crake Valley to the west, Rusland in the centre and Windermere and the River Leven in the east.
