It identifies areas within and adjoining the two settlements where potentially significant effects upon the historic environment are anticipated, for example where development would impact upon significant elements of the setting of a heritage asset. It is intended as an initial baseline to inform more detailed site-specific studies for the settlement. The archaeological potential of land falling within the setting of the study areas is not considered within this report. 1.4 The Study report is intended to inform future representations by KCS Developments Ltd in regard to the Leeds City Council Site Allocations Plan Revised Publication Draft Outer North East (May 2017). 1 HISTORIC SETTLEMENT STUDY WETHERBY JULY 2017 2.0 SETTLEMENT STUDIES WETHERBY Historical Development 2.1 Whilst some limited evidence of activity within the area has been found dating to the prehistoric era there is little evidence to suggest occupation prior to the Romano-British period. Archaeological evidence does indicate a sizable Roman settlement at Wetherby (Archaeological Services WYAS, 2002) located near to Wattle SyKe to the south of the town. A number of burial finds, pottery and coins were identified dating between the 1st and 4th centuries during construction works suggesting a small Roman town (NRHE 54862, NRHE 53036). 2.2 The settlement is referenced in the Domesday Survey of 1086 as Wedrebi and was part of the extensive post-Conquest estate of the Percy family. A short lived castle was constructed by the Percys in around 1140 and was located to the west of the current MarKet Place near to the river crossing (NRHE 54835). Wetherby gained importance during the 13th and 14th century following the granting of land and buildings to the Knights Templar in the early 13th century and the grant of right to hold a weekly market. By the end of the 13th century the settlement contained a mill, a bridge, chapel and the castle with around 97 tax paying inhabitants listed by 1379 (Archaeological Services WYAS, 2002). Settlement focus during this period was around the Market Place. 2.3 The Wetherby estate was forfeited by the Percy family in 1572 and was held by the Crown before passing to the Earls and Dukes of Devonshire in 1602. The Great North Road encouraged travellers through the settlement and a number of coaching inns had been established by the mid-16th century know acknowledged in the names of the Swan and the BlacK Bull public houses. Growth was further stimulated by improvements to the western branch of the Great North Road through Wetherby during the second half of the 18th century. 2.4 In 1824 the 6th DuKe of Devonshire put up the Wetherby estate for sale and the town along with much of its surrounding land was divided into lots for auction. An 1824 map of the 2 HISTORIC SETTLEMENT STUDY WETHERBY JULY 2017 Town shows the historic core of Wetherby formed by the High Street running north from the bridge crossing and continuing as North Street. Nucleated development can be seen around MarKet Place and Chapel Hill and linear built form, including a number of terraced houses, continues along Victoria Street to the east. More dispersed patterns of development, likely farmsteads, continued to the west along the route of the current A661, Westgate. 2.5 The nucleated form of settlement, focused around MarKet Place and High Street remains evident on 19th century mapping with a notable elliptical pattern of development along Chapel Hill and Bank Street continuing eastwards towards Horse Fair. Croft and/or burgage plots are indicated on the 1849-50 and 1894 published OS maps to both sides of High Street with Scott Lane liKely an earlier bacK lane to the plots. These tend to confirm the location of the medieval core and suggest a planned settlement, liKely established by the Knights Templar in the early 13th century. 2.6 Wetherby underwent steady growth during the 19th century with population rising from 1114 inhabitants in 1801 to 1657 in 1871. A number of town houses, later converted to shops, were built in the core of the settlement and St. James’s Church was built to north side of the town in 1839-42. A number of terraces were also constructed to the east and north and mapping indicates a series of villas constructed overlooking the River to the west. Wetherby rail station was opened in 1848 and liKely encouraged further growth during the latter half of the 19th century. 2.7 The 1894 OS map shows the nucleated form of the settlement along with the evolving linear expansion of development along the main arterial routes out from the core. A number of villa developments are indicated in the vicinity of the station around Raby Park and the Union WorKhouse (1863), now converted to apartments, is a notable outlier on West End. Industrial activity is also indicated with Wetherby Mills located to the south of the town and a brewery to the north. The map also indicates the construction of a gas works to the east. Further linear development is shown extending northwards along North Street. The map is also notable in indicating very limited development to the south side of the River the exception being MicKlethwaite Farm and West Lodge. 3 HISTORIC SETTLEMENT STUDY WETHERBY JULY 2017 2.8 A significant increase in construction took place during the inter-war period to all sides of the Town with the exception of land to the south of the River. This phase saw linear development to the west along Spofforth Hill and the construction, to the north, of residential estates around Woodland View, Ainsty Crescent and Deighton Gates. During WW2 a naval camp was established to the east of the settlement (HMS Ceres) with part of the camp off Hallfield Lane later redeveloped for housing and as the site of Wetherby High School. The area of the main headquarters to the north-east was later adapted to a borstal then prison in around 1958 and is now a HM Young Offenders Institute. 2.9 Residential suburban development continued throughout the latter half of the 20th century. Large scale development took place around Deighton Gates and Priest Hill and to west estates at Grasmere Avenue and Fledborough Road were built during the 1960s and 1970s largely in the form of detached and semi-detached houses. This also extended ribbon development along Linton Lane linking with the settlement of Linton. Development to the east included Hall Orchards Avenue and Templar Gardens. To the south social housing development around Third Avenue was constructed during the 1960s. In the 1990s the Glebe Field Drive estates was built to the north of the historic Town core. Further development included the construction of the Sandbeck Industrial Estate and Wetherby Business ParK to the north east. 2.10 The later 20th century development was constructed in a notable circular pattern to the west, north and east of the settlement, to some degree emphasised by the physical boundary of the A1(M) corridor, divorcing the historic core from its historical agricultural hinterland. Development to the south of the River Wharf has been highly limited with development principally comprising a housing development around MicKlethwaite Grove and the laying out of sports fields on Wetherby Ings. Principal Heritage Assets 2.11 The majority of designated heritage assets records on the National Heritage List for England (NHLE) are located within the historic core of the Town around Market Place and High Street and comprise listed buildings related to the 18th and 19th century growth of settlement. These include a number of town houses now adapted to shop and commercial uses and notable landmarK buildings such as the Church of St. James (list entry number 1313467, 4 HISTORIC SETTLEMENT STUDY WETHERBY JULY 2017 Grade II), Wetherby Town Hall (list entry number 1135070) and Wetherby Bridge (list entry number 1313468, Grade II). The Bridge is also a scheduled monument (list entry number 1005798) as is the site of Wetherby Castle (list entry number 1433268) extending to the banks of the River Wharfe. 2.12 The NHLE includes a number of records at the edge of the current settlement boundaries. These include the remains of West Lodge (list entry number 1313466, Grade II) to the south on Boston Road and Wetherby Lodge (list entry number 1315563, Grade II) to the west on Spofforth Hill/Harrogate Road. A number of important estate houses, with associated parKland are also identified.

  • Dear Sir/Madam I Wish to Register My Objection to the Proposed Development Next to the AI Service Station at Wetherby
    From: To: Site Allocations Plan Subject: PNE00145_Planing next to A1 services Date: 02 November 2016 17:03:08 Dear Sir/Madam I wish to register my objection to the proposed Development next to the AI Service station at Wetherby. I like thousands of other Wetherby residents would like you to LISTEN to the people before it is too late! Wetherby is a small town where it is impossible to park, long waits for doctors appointments, over crowded roads, and you have already ignored the people of Wetherby and surrounding villages and gone ahead with 3 huge housing developments . THIS IS JUST NOT SUSTAINABLE and we are FULL!! Why are you hellbent on ruining Wetherby as a nice rural Market town ! The current infrastructure never mind the environment cannot possible absorb these huge developments ! As it stands, new road structures should be put in place to help Spofforth, North Deighton and Kirk Deighton . These villages are been used as a through run to and from Harrogate to York and although these villages are under North Yorkshire . However it is West Yorkshire planning council causing all the traffic problems. Putting in the new road from Wetherby up to and past the service station to York road has tripled the traffic through Kirk Deighton and this was never taken into account. Your new proposed plans to build a further 1449 houses will totally ruin Wetherby and its surrounding villages. I think the council needs to adopt some common sense, which has been greatly lacking when it comes to road traffic issues in the last few years ! Regards L.

Most of the houses are built of pale stone, topped with roofs of red tiles - a type of architecture more usually found in North Yorkshire. With its riverside developments and air of prosperity, the Wetherby of today is a favoured place to live. The flat, arable landscape, too, is very different to Pennine Yorkshire. Here, on the fringes of the Vale of York, the soil is rich and dark and productive - the fields divided up by fences and hedgerows rather than dry-stone walls. The town has a long history. A brief glance at an Ordnance Survey map reveals that Wetherby grew up around a tight curve in the River Wharfe. Its importance as a river crossing was recognised by the building of a castle, possibly in the 12th century, of which only the foundations remain. The first mention of a bridge was in 1233. A few years later, in 1240, the Knights Templar were granted a royal charter to hold a market in Wetherby.

  • 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.
