NB This publication was originally issued in the 10 by 8 inch format then used by the society. It has now been digitised and reformatted at A5. This has changed the original pagination of articles, which is given in square brackets. SOME NOTES ON THE LEAD MINES OF GREENHOW HILL YORKSHIRE J.M. Dickinson The village of Greenhow lies approximately half way between Wharfedale and Nidderdale at a height of some 1,300 feet above sea level. This scattered community consists in reality of two villages; Greenhow Hill, situated between Greenhow and Coldstones Hill, and the much older village of Kell or Keld Houses. History does not record when man first came here in search of lead, but it is known that the mines were worked during the Roman occupation as three pigs of lead have been found which date from this period. One of these pigs discovered in 1735 bears the abbreviated inscription, ‘Imp. Caes. Domitiano. Aug. Cos. VII.’ which can be extended to Imperator Caesar Domitiano Augustus Consul. VII. This indicates that the pig was cast in 81 A.D. On the side of one of these early pieces appears the word ‘Brig’ denoting that the pig of lead was probably cast from lead mined by the local Brigantes.

  • Outdoor Education: Its Origins and Institutionalisation in Schools with Particular Reference to the West Riding of Yorkshire Since 1945
    Outdoor Education: Its origins and institutionalisation in schools with particular reference to the West Riding of Yorkshire since 1945 Lynn Cook Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of PhD The University of Leeds School of Education July 2000 The candidate confirms that the work is her own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I should like to express my thanks to Professor E. W. Jenkins of the School of Education for his supervision throughout the period of study. His comments on the numerous drafts and his constructive suggestions as to the approach and style of the study greatly assisted me in bringing this study to its present form. I am thankful to all the people who gave their time so willingly and helped me in obtaining the necessary information for my study. Finally thanks are due to my husband Sam, my family, friends and colleagues without whose patience and faith in me this study would not have been completed. ABSTRACT This thesis offers an account of the origins and institutionalisation of outdoor education with particular reference to the West Riding of Yorkshire since 1945. It begins by describing what was understood by the term 'outdoor education' in the period from about 1890 to 1944 and relates this to its political, social and educational determinants. It then draws upon this broad, national account to focus attention on the origins and institutionalisation of outdoor education in the West Riding since 1945. Through an account of Bewerley Park, first as a camp school and later as an outdoor pursuits centre, the thesis explores how, under the influence of Alec Clegg, outdoor education was used by the West Riding to mitigate social and economic inequalities.

  • MS Dep 1980/1 Archives of the Dean and Chapter Of
    Handlist 47 LEEDS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Archives of the Dean and Chapter of Ripon MS Dep 1980/1 The greater part of their accumulated archives was very generously deposited recently in the Brotherton Library of the University of Leeds by the Dean and Chapter of Ripon. It is hoped that by this arrangement the material will be more conveniently accessible to the majority of researchers. A few items, however, remain at Ripon because they are currently in use or are on permanent display to visitors. The cathedral was a parish church before it was raised to its present status and the parish registers are deposited at the North Yorkshire County Record Office, Northallerton. This list includes both the material remaining at Ripon and that at Northallerton. The archives of the Dean and Chapter have been listed twice before. A summary list was prepared for the Pilgrim Trust in 1946. A much fuller list was compiled for the National Register of Archives (Historical Manuscripts Commission) and issued in 1959. Upon the archives being inspected after their arrival at Leeds it was immediately apparent that the collection contained even more than had been listed in 1959, and it was decided with the ready concurrence of the Commission, that a new listing would be essential. This new list has been designed to avoid as much confusion as possible. It follows the style and numeration of the 1959 list and new entries have been inserted as close as possible to suitable places within its original framework. Some documents had identifications unrelated to the serial numbers used in that list; they have now been numbered to correspond and the additional items have been given appropriate subdivisions within the original notation.

  • Bridge Case Study
    Bridge Case Study How New Bewerley Community School unlocked creative talent and curriculum change to achieve Platinum Artsmark status New Bewerley embraces music with the In Harmony Opera North team. When New Bewerley Community School started their Artsmark journey in 2017/18 they couldn’t have known how it would transform their culture, curriculum and community. What started as an exploration of how the arts can lift learning has since become a force for whole school change. In April 2021 their dedication saw them achieve the coveted Artsmark Platinum award. Read on to discover about their creative journey. Key success factors • The school’s Artsmark journey unlocked creative experiences for all pupils, irrespective of their beginnings and abilities. • Arts partnership working empowered the school to transform teaching and learning. • Their Artsmark experience has positioned them as a local and regional cultural change leader, sharing their learning experiences with peers. Written by Tess Parker, Story Tiller Communications 1 Bridge Case Study An inner-city school embracing change through Artsmark Founded in 2005, New Bewerley Community School is based in Beeston, South Leeds. They serve a challenging catchment area with high levels of socio-economic deprivation. It is estimated that 50% of its pupils live within the top 3% most deprived wards in England. In addition, the school supports around 50% of pupils with English as an Additional Language (EAL) and 30% with Special Educational Needs (SEN). This tough context requires the school to be resourceful and innovative in its approach to school improvement. Their partnership with Opera North’s In Harmony programme has had a significant impact; New Bewerley’s Platinum Artsmark is proof of this.

  • Growth Strategy
    Harrogate District Local Plan: Publication Draft 2018 Harrogate District Growth Strategy Harrogate Borough Council 23 Harrogate District Local Plan: Publication Draft 2018 3 Harrogate District Growth Strategy Harrogate District Growth Strategy: Key Facts Household projections show household growth across the district of 11% between 2004-35, which is a lower level of growth than the region (15%) and England (20%). The three main urban areas of Harrogate, Knaresborough and Ripon support the largest concentrations of the district's population. Since the Harrogate District Local Plan was adopted in 2001 these settlements, together with the market towns of Boroughbridge, Masham and Pateley Bridge, have accommodated the majority of new growth. The district has a large rural area containing villages and hamlets ranging from larger villages with local services and facilities down to small clusters of houses. There is a need to ensure that rural settlements can continue to support local village services. The district has high levels of employment and the highest rate of business start-ups of any district within the Leeds City Region. The district’s residents are some of the most qualified in the north of England. The local economy has a number of prominent high-value sectors (including wholesale, professional services and media) alongside a thriving visitor economy. Despite high resident skill levels and average earnings, workplace wages in the district are considerably lower than the regional and national average, with a disproportionate skew in local employment towards low value sectors. In the west of the district lies the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), which covers some 233 sq miles; more generally the district has high quality natural, built and historic environments.
