U DDBA Papers of the Barnards Family 1401-1945 of South Cave
Hull History Centre: Papers of the Barnards Family of South Cave U DDBA Papers of the Barnards Family 1401-1945 of South Cave Historical background: The papers relate to the branch of the family headed by Leuyns Boldero Barnard who began building up a landed estate centred on South Cave in the mid-eighteenth century. His inherited ancestry can be traced back to William and Elizabeth Barnard in the late sixteenth century. Their son, William Barnard, became mayor of Hull and died in 1614. Of his seven sons, two of them also served time as mayor of Hull, including the sixth son, Henry Barnard (d.1661), through whose direct descendants Leuyns Boldero Barnard was eventually destined to succeed. Henry Barnard, married Frances Spurrier and together had a son and a daughter. His daughter, Frances, married William Thompson MP of Humbleton and his son, Edward Barnard, who lived at North Dalton, was recorder of Hull and Beverley from the early 1660s until 1686 when he died. He and his wife Margaret, who was also from the Thompson family, had at least seven children, the eldest of whom, Edward Barnard (d.1714), had five children some of whom died without issue and some had only female heirs. The second son, William Barnard (d.1718) married Mary Perrot, the daughter of a York alderman, but had no children. The third son, Henry Barnard (will at U DDBA/14/3), married Eleanor Lowther, but he also died, in 1769 at the age of 94, without issue. From the death of Henry Barnard in 1769 the family inheritance moved laterally. -

Appendix A: Background Cultural Heritage Context
Appendix A: Background Cultural Heritage Context Archaeological Sites The East Riding, and the c.980sqkm selected for the SEA Addendum study area, has been shaped by man’s activities over the past 10,000 years. As a result, the area contains a rich heritage of archaeological sites (both designated and non-designated), dating from the early prehistoric periods to the 20th century, which reflect the region’s varied social and economic history. The Prehistoric Periods (up to c.700 BC) The earliest phases of prehistoric occupation are generally characterised by an increasing exploitation of the natural landscape and its resources. Artefactual evidence suggests that there was a human presence in Holderness during the Palaeolithic period, and several sites have been identified within the River Hull corridor; one flint-working site at Brigham was excavated in 1962-63 in advance of gravel extraction. Climatic improvements after the Devensian ice age led to the re- establishment of forests, and plants and animals became available for exploitation. While Holderness saw some transient human activity in the later Mesolithic period (c.8300-4000 BC), there was also a significant population on the Wolds, centred on ‘activity areas’ associated with ponds and springs. The number and density of sites on the Wolds implies that this higher land was well-populated during the subsequent Neolithic period (c.4000-2500 BC). Although initially a pastoral society, the gradual introduction of grain crops resulted in a more widespread mixed agricultural regime. The construction of large communal burial mounds as well as other sacred or ritual sites, such as henges, cursus and mortuary enclosures, suggests that there was an organised, community-based society. -

The thesis examines the evidence for later Iron Age and Romano-British settlement in a landscape block of £. 330 km , incorporating the valley proper and the higher glacial deposits at its margins. The discussion utilises a comprehensive and critical gazetteer of some two hundred and twenty sites and findspots, and seven detailed site-studies present the results of the author's fieldwork or analysis of previously unpublished material assemblages. -
U DDGE Papers of the Bishop Burton Estates 1194 - 1931 of the Gee and Hall-Watt Families
Hull History Centre: Bishop Burton Estates of the Gee and Hall-Watt Families U DDGE Papers of the Bishop Burton Estates 1194 - 1931 of the Gee and Hall-Watt Families Historical Background: Bishop Burton is about 4 kilometres west of Beverley on the main York road at the foot of the East Yorkshire wolds. It is an estate village dating largely from the lordship of the Hall-Watt family from the late eighteenth century. Before the Reformation the manor had been owned by the Archbishop of York. After reversion to the Crown in 1542 it was sold a decade later to John Dudley, Duke of Northunberland who forfeited it a year later on attainder. It then went through leasing and sale before being bought by the Crompton family, who in turn sold it to William Gee (d.1612) in 1603. It subsequently descended in the Gee family until being bought by Richard Watt in 1783 (Allison, History of Yorkshire East Riding, iv, pp.3-4). The Gee family came from Rothley in Leicestershire. Henry Gee of Rothley was the common ancestor of a senior branch of the family who remained in Rothley and the father of William Gee who first moved to Hull as a master mariner. William Gee became a Merchant of the Staple and acquired great wealth through this means and through public office. He was sheriff of Hull in 1560 and mayor in 1562, 1573 and 1582. He was the benefactor of Hull Grammar School, donating £80 and 20,000 bricks in 1583 for its rebuilding, as well as founding a hospital for ten poor women and providing the town with a gold chain to be worn by mayoresses. -

EAST RIDING of YORKSHIRE HEARTH TAX ASSESSMENT MICHAELMAS 1672 by David and Susan Neave
EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE HEARTH TAX ASSESSMENT MICHAELMAS 1672 by David and Susan Neave 1. INTRODUCTION This volume comprises the hearth tax returns for the historic East Riding of Yorkshire and the town and county of Hull.1 The East Riding, the smallest of the three Yorkshire ridings, covers some 750,000 acres (303,750 hectares). It is almost totally bounded by water with the Humber estuary to the south, the North Sea to the east, and the river Ouse to the west and south and river Derwent to the north. The boundary, around 200 miles in length, is only land- based for seven miles between York and Stamford Bridge and eight miles between Binnington Carr and North Cliff, Filey (Map 1).2 Hull, more correctly Kingston-upon-Hull, stands at the confluence of the river Hull and the Humber estuary. The riding divides into four main natural regions, the Yorkshire Wolds, Holderness, the Vale of York, and the Vale of Pickering (Map 2). The Yorkshire Wolds, a great crescent of chalk stretching from the Humber to the coast at Flamborough Head, is the most distinctive relief feature of the region. Essentially a high tableland of gently rolling downs dissected by numerous steep-sided dry valleys it reaches a maximum height of around 808 feet (246 metres) above sea-level near Garrowby Hill. At the coast the chalk cliffs rise up to 400 feet (120 metres). Along the western edge of the Wolds are the Jurassic Hills, a narrow band of limestone that broadens out to the north to form an area of distinctive scenery to the south of Malton. -

Conservation Area Appraisal
CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL TICKTON EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE COUNCIL DESIGNATED FEBRUARY 2009 1 TICKTON CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL INTRODUCTION The Local Situation The National Situation The possibility of designating a Conservation Area in Tickton s first The concept of Conservation Areas was considered in the early 1990’s by the established just over 40 years ago in the officers of Beverley Borough Council, Civic Amenities Act of 1967. but it was not until 2005 that the East Riding Council included it in a list of The Town & Country Planning Act settlements on which work could begin. 1990 defines a Conservation Area as “an area of special architectural or This was discussed with the Parish historical interest the character or Council early in 2008, following which appearance of which it is desirable to they confirmed that it was a suggestion preserve or enhance”. which they would support, and they gave their formal support for work to be For the designation of Conservation undertaken to that end. Areas to be effective, it is important that rational and consistent judgements are made in determining their special qualities and local distinctiveness, as well as their value to the local community. Such judgements should be based on a thorough understanding of the area in its wider context, reached through a detailed appraisal of its character and appearance. The purpose behind Conservation Area Main Street (looking east) designation is not to prevent any further This appraisal of the character and change; rather it is to ensure that appearance of Tickton and the map whatever change does occur is carefully attached is the result of that decision managed.
