Turnpike Trusts then took over the construction and maintenance of major roads, until the creation of Highway Boards in 1878 (and then County Councils in 1889). Listed below are the trusts which existed in County Durham (and in that part of the North Riding of Yorkshire which became part of Durham in 1974). The limits within which they operated are given (together with approximate current road numbers), as are the dates of the Acts of Parliament which authorised their operations. A brief indication is given of relevant records held in the Durham County Record Office. The Record Office also holds a set of local Acts of Parliament (into which category most Turnpike Acts fell) from 1798, and these may be consulted in the Search Room.

  • Sunderland Ferries Gillian Cookson by 1700, the Fords Used by Medieval
    Sunderland ferries Gillian Cookson By 1700, the fords used by medieval and early modern travellers had more or less disappeared from the lower reaches of the Wear. A crossing between Sunderland and Monkwearmouth was not reinstated after being swept away by the sea in 1400,1 although people who knew the river were able to cross near its mouth at low water until early in the 19 th century. 2 Fords further upstream – one at Pallion noted in the 15 th century, 3 and that of medieval or earlier date at Hylton 4 – were eventually replaced by ferries. High tide made these crossings impassable, as did any increase of water in the Wear, so that travellers were sometimes obliged to go to New Bridge, below Lambton castle, the only bridge downstream from Durham and until 1796 the nearest one to Sunderland.5 The Sunderland ferry, that closest to the mouth of the river, therefore remained of the utmost importance to the town. The Sunderland ferry was let by the bishop of Durham to Walter Ettrick from 1661 when rights to the ferry and river passage, along with profits from salt, fruit, roots and victuals sold in the borough, were divided from the main borough lease. 6 The lease was renewed in 1668, 1688 and 1702, on the latter occasion to Anthony Ettrick, who was granted the ferry and carriage landing on both sides of the river. Throughout this time the Ettricks paid a fine of £20 or 20 guineas and an annual rent of £2 for these privileges. 7 Their descendants kept the franchise until the property was transferred to the bridge commissioners in 1796.

  • Sunderland and Its People, 1795-6
    Sunderland and its people, 1795-6 The Universal British Directory , published in five volumes during the 1790s, lists the leading inhabitants and tradespeople of towns and villages across Britain. The entry for Sunderland, which appears in volume iv of the directory, was evidently written during 1795 or 1796, as it notes that the building of the first Wearmouth bridge was then in progress. The directory entry begins with a brief history and description of the thriving town, emphasising the importance of its coal trade. Inhabitants are then listed alphabetically, starting with gentry, clergy, medical men and lawyers. There was also a good number of port officials based at the Customs House and Excise Office. It is clear from the range of occupations in the main list that many inhabitants worked in or around shipping - as coal-fitters (coal shippers), boat-builders, or chandlers, for example - or in the supply of services or provisions. Keelmen themselves, though very numerous, were too far down the social scale to be listed in the directory. Sunderland borough or township, created a parish in its own right only in 1719, had by this time far outgrown the much older parishes of Bishopwearmouth, out of which it had been carved, and Monkwearmouth, on the north bank of the Wear. These two old settlements are described in the directory as having become little more than suburbs of Sunderland, which was extending westwards at such a rate that it would soon merge with the built-up area of Bishopwearmouth. Monkwearmouth, connected to the south bank by several ferries, was somewhat isolated before the bridge was completed.

  • EDITORIAL by the Time You Read This Our Conference Will Be Over, and the Autumn Session of Meetings Will Be Well Under Way
    EDITORIAL By the time you read this our Conference will be over, and the Autumn session of meetings will be well under way. The Society continues to grow, and the various local groups are all flourishing. Various projects such as Census Indexing and M.I. Recording are proceeding, but more volunteers to assist in the work are always welcome. As mentioned in the last issue of the Journal, our Treasurer John Scott is retiring from the job after a stint of eight years, and in recognition of his long and devoted service he is to be made an Honorary Life Member of the Society. We were worried about finding a successor to take over from John, but fortunately a volunteer, Miss Cindy Winters, has come forward, and we wish her well in her new position. Liz Lyall, the prime mover in the organisation of our Annual Conferences, is also retiring, and we take this opportunity of thanking her for all the work she has put in to make our Conferences so successful. I trust that members will continue to submit articles and other items of interest for publication in the Journal. It is time we had a Durham parish in the `Know Your Parish' series: there have only been six (Medomsley, Heworth, Chester-le-Street, Washington, Tanfield and Hetton-le-Hole) since the series started more than eight years ago! So how about it, you Durham folk? NEWS IN BRIEF We Should've Listened to Grandma Dr Noeline Kyle, of the Faculty of Education, University of Wollongong, P.O.
