  • East Riding Historic Designed Landscapes
    YORKSHIRE GARDENS TRUST East Riding Historic Designed Landscapes WASSAND HALL Report by David and Susan Neave April 2013 1. CORE DATA 1.1 Name of site: Wassand Hall 1.2 Grid reference: TA 173461 1.3 Administrative area: Seaton Civil Parish, East Riding of Yorkshire Unitary Authority 1.4 Current site designation: Not registered 2. SUMMARY OF HISTORIC INTEREST Modest Georgian landscaped park incorporating a large picturesque natural lake, Hornsea Mere. 3. HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE SITE 3.1 Estate owners The manor of Wassand was purchased by Joan widow of Sir William Constable of Caythorpe and her son Marmaduke in 1529, and thereafter it descended in the Constable, later Strickland-Constable, family. Following the death of Lady (Ernestine) Strickland-Constable, widow of Sir Henry Marmaduke Strickland- Constable, in 1995 the estate was left to trustees including her great-nephew, Rupert Russell. (Kent, VCH Yorks ER VII, 367) The owners chiefly responsible for the landscaping were: Marmaduke Constable, owner 1731-62 Revd Charles Constable, owner 1812-52 3.2 Early history of the site The Constables built a manor house at Wassand in the early 17th century. A small park was created south of the manor house by enclosing former open-field land. (Kent, VCH Yorks ER VII, 367-8) The extent of this early park can be seen on a 1 plan of 1809, a few years before Wassand Hall was built and the old manor house pulled down (see plan, below). Popham suggests that a certain amount of planting must have taken placed by c. 1700. (Popham, ‘Wassand Estate’, v.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE AREA 1.1 Physical process level 1.1.1 Classification One of the youngest natural coastlines of England is the Holderness Coast, a 61 km long stretch of low glacial drift cliffs 3m to 35m in height. The Holderness coast stretches from Flamborough Head in the north to Spurn Head in the south. The Holderness coast mainly exists of soft glacial drift cliffs, which have been cut back up to 200 m in the last century. On the softer sediment, the crumbling cliffs are fronted by beach-mantled abrasion ramps that decline gradually to a smoothed sea floor. The Holderness coast is a macro-tidal coast, according to the scoping study the classification of the coast is: 2. Soft rock coasts High and low glacial sea cliffs 1.1.2 Geology About a million years ago the Yorkshire coastline was a line of chalk cliffs almost 32 km west of where it now is. During the Pleistocene Ice Age (18,000 years ago) deposits of glacial till (soft boulder clay) were built up against these cliffs to form the new coastline. The boulder clay consists of about 72% mud, 27% sand and 1% boulders and large Fig.

  • Shipbuilding Catching Shellfish
    IntroductionIntroduction Much of the East Riding of Yorkshire adjoins water: the North Sea and the River Humber and its tributaries. Over the centuries men have needed boats to travel over the water and to gather food from under it. Naturally people with the right skills set up to build these boats. Some ship building operations are quite well known, such as those in Beverley and Hull. They have been documented in exhibitions in other local museums. This exhibition looks at some less well known boat building yards and boat builders both on the east coast and along the banks of the Humber. It has been researched and produced by the Skidby Windmill Volunteer Team. Prehistory- the Ferriby boats The Yorkshire Wolds have been home to people since Neolithic times and the River Humber has been an important transport route allowing goods and people to travel in all directions by water. For thousands of years this was the easiest and safest way to travel. It is therefore not surprising that North Ferriby was the site of one of the oldest boatyards in Europe as well as being an important harbour. Above: hypothetical reconstruction of a Ferriby boat. Right: Excavation in 1963 In 1937 changes to the tidal currents exposed three large oak planks preserved in the mud which Ted and Willy Wright recognised as belonging to very early boats. At first these were thought to be Viking but later tests confirmed that they were Bronze Age and, at 4000 years A half-scale replica of the Ferriby boats called Oakleaf has been built and sea trials proved old they are some of the oldest boats discovered in Europe.

    SYSTEMIC INSIGHTS INTO THE MANAGEMENT OF ECOSYSTEM SERVICES IN THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT Jonathan P. Atkins a, Daryl Burdon b, Mike Elliott b and Amanda J. Gregory c a Centre for Economic Policy, The Business School, University of Hull, Hull HU6 7RX, UK b Institute of Estuarine and Coastal Studies (IECS), University of Hull, Hull HU6 7RX, UK c Centre for Systems Studies, The Business School, University of Hull, Hull HU6 7RX, UK ABSTRACT This paper centres on the application of The Ecosystem Approach in the management of the marine environment, involving the identification of multi-stakeholder needs and uses of ecosystem services. The Ecosystem Approach provides ‘a strategy for the integrated management of land, water and living resources that promotes conservation and sustainable use in an equitable way’, while ecosystem services are ‘the conditions and processes through which natural ecosystems, and the species that make them up, sustain and fulfil human life’. Ever increasing and diverse use of the marine environment is leading to human-induced changes in marine-life, making necessary the development of a marine policy formation process that recognises and takes into consideration the full range of stakeholders and results in policy that addresses current, multiple, interacting uses (e.g. the EU’s Maritime Policy and Marine Strategy Framework Directive). Taking a systemic approach, incorporating an understanding of marine ecosystem structure and functioning, we identify the diversity of stakeholders and their uses of the marine environment within the framework of ecosystem services (production, regulation, cultural and over-arching support services). Informed by the DPSIR (Drivers – Pressures - State Change – Impact - Response) approach - a framework for assessing the causes, consequences and responses to change – we assess the outcomes of competing human uses and emerging pressures on the marine environment, the complexity of decision making in this area, and provide a process for informing choices in conflict resolution involving a diversity of stakeholders.
