North Yorkshire has a rich natural heritage with The Dales and The Moors National Parks close by. The Lake District too is within easy striking distance. Description Hollymoor is a barn conversion of the highest quality. Completed in 2014 it has been almost entirely rebuilt and extended to create the most fantastic, light, spacious and flexible family home in a setting of true tranquillity, and yet is accessible to all day to day family needs. By rebuilding as they have, the creators of this lovely home have taken the opportunity to include the very best fixtures and fittings throughout the house, with Porcelanosa ceramics, Rako lighting, bespoke PWS designer kitchen, a biomass boiler with underfloor heating throughout and properly filtered and softened private water from its own artesian well. It is also insulated to the highest level and has double glazing throughout. The house is approached through electric, farm style, gates to either a yard on the right or a gravel sweep at the front of the house. There is a beautifully sheltered, south west facing terrace, and the front door leads to a lovely welcoming hall. The way the house is currently set up this hall leads to spacious annex accommodation and through to the main house via the living room and kitchen area. There is also direct access in to the main home from the back door leading through the boot room. The accommodation is set out over two floors with all rooms making the most of the stunning setting. Outside The gardens and grounds extend in total to about 5.72 acres, of which nearly two acres are taken up by the beautiful lake. The landscaping is deliberately simple with laurel hedges dividing the space without taking away from the overall setting. The lake has been cleared of years of fallen timber and is now a magnet for wildlife. It is well stocked with British native course fish, and is accredited by the Environment Agency as a registered fishery. The property also has a registered Agricultural Holding number. Further away from the house is a meadow which is fenced for horses and which provides about 1.67 acres of excellent grazing. There is also a fully drained outdoor riding arena measuring approximately 40m x 20m and which has a fibre/ sand mix surface. There is also a small wood chip turnout area and a fully kitted out American Barn with three loose boxes, tack room with WC, feed/rug room and hay store area. It is timber-clad with a concrete floor and has both hot/cold water and power to it. Adjacent to the house is a purpose built fuel store with space for logs and hopper for wood pellets supplying the biomass boiler. Services Mains electricity, drainage to a private sewerage treatment plant, private water from an artesian well which is carbon filtered and salt softened. The biomass boiler is by Solarfocus and is fuelled by wood pellets on an automatic feed system from the adjoining store. It supports both underfloor heating and hot water as well as twin hot water cylinders as back up. It is also registered under the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) scheme, providing an annual return of about £8,000. There are electric gates, fire detectors and alarm system all to current building regulations. Viewings Strictly by appointment through the Selling Agents, GSC Grays. Tel: 01748 897627.

  • Car Parking Charges for the Station, Richmond Swimming
    CAR PARKING CHARGES FOR THE STATION, RICHMOND SWIMMING POOL AND GYM CUSTOMERS ARE ON THE WAY; HOWEVER, YOU CAN MAKE THEM FAIRER IF YOU ACT IMMEDIATELY BY EXPRESSING YOUR VIEWS Richmondshire District Council is proposing to introduce car parking charges in The Station Yard Car Park this spring. We understand that the ticket machines have been ordered . This car park is currently used by customers of The Station, Richmond Swimming Pool and Liberty Gym. All of these buildings and the activities which take place in them are organised and maintained through the efforts of two local volunteer-led charities: The Station – Is operated by The Richmondshire Building Preservation Trust The Pool and Gym – Are operated by the Richmond Leisure Trust If you regularly use these ‘much loved’ charity-run-facilities , and choose to park your vehicle in the council owned Station Yard Car Park, you will shortly be charged for your visit. The charities that operate these facilities believe that what is being proposed will have an immediate and detrimental impact on these community amenities which are run on a ‘not-for profit’ basis - and could ultimately force them to close. The local authority appear to have little or no relevant research on which to justify their position. Your help is needed NOW to ensure that the views of people like you, who value The Station, pool and gym, to make your voices heard on this critical issue by writing to or phoning your district councillor, if you live in Richmondshire or writing to the head of the local authority if you don't.

  • Conservation Areas
    APPENDIX A (A-G) Aldbrough St. John Conservation Area Aldbrough St. John Conservation Area was designated in 1975. The following brief statement identifies the environmental qualities which led to designation, and which the District Council consider should be preserved or enhanced as the case may be. Although the name suggests association with an ancient fortification, and a C16th reference to a ruin of this type exists, any trace of remains has long since disappeared, always assuming the source had not confused Aldbrough with the nearby fortifications at Stanwick. The village is very much an agricultural settlement, with strong associations with the Duke of Northumberland who acquired and constructed property for his estate from the early C19th. The distinctive feature of the village is the broad, sweeping village green around which the houses and cottages are arranged, which produces an unusual blend of townscape and landscape. In common with many agricultural and estate settlements, houses and cottages are spaciously arranged, a characteristic magnified in the case of Aldbrough by the sheer size of the village green. Aldbrough is a village of contrasts, from the wide open spaces of Low Green complimented by the attractive open paddocks south of Aldbrough Beck, to the more formal and smaller High Green, and the flowing sequence of tightly enclosed spaces between Cordilleras Farm and Kilton Grange. Each has its particular quality but in combination they produce a townscape pattern which is unusual in Richmondshire. The Conservation Area boundary is drawn tightly around the historic core ( except at the east end of the green where important tree belts and open areas are included).

As part of this update a range of local sources have been used, including contact with and feedback from local Parish Councils and Meetings, information held by the Council, desktop studies, web resources and site visits to the relevant settlements. Maintaining the Information It is the nature of such studies that they date very quickly; therefore we will update this study on a regular basis.

  • Richmondshire District Council Does Not Currently Meet the Criteria for Electoral Inequality Ie
    District Ward Boundary Review Richmondshire District Council Stage One - Council Size Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (April 2017) 1 Introduction The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) is an independent body that is responsible for conducting boundary and electoral reviews of principal authorities in England. Richmondshire District Council does not currently meet the criteria for electoral inequality ie. 30% of wards having a variance greater than +/- 10% of the average electorate per Member, however this threshold is likely to be reached in the very near future. As a result the Council decided in July 2016 to request the LGBCE to undertake an electoral review. This request was accepted and the review was included in their programme. The electoral review will examine whether the boundaries of wards within the local authority area need to be altered to ensure fair representation at the local government elections. In Richmondshire it has been identified that six of the twenty four wards have imbalances. The table below sets out the current imbalances in the District. No (%) Number of wards (>10%) 5 Number of wards (>20%) 0 Number of wards (>30%) 1 The Wards with the above variances are: (%) Brompton-on-Swale & Scorton 11% Hipswell 12% Hornby Castle 29% Middleton Tyas -14% Scotton -12% Swaledale -11% The main reasons for the electoral inequality arises from new housing developments, under registration of service personnel and population changes, the detail of which will be explained in the following sections. North Yorkshire County Council is not within the LGBCE programme for review and the County Council have indicated they will not be requesting a review of the County Divisions.

  • Historical Journey Along the River Tees and Its Tributaries
    Historical Journey along the River Tees and its Tributaries Synopsis The document describes a virtual journey along the River Tees beginning at its source; the perspective is as much historical as descriptive of the current scene. Where significant tributaries join the river, they also are tracked back to their start-points. Particular attention is paid to bridges and watermills because of their intimate associations with the rivers, but nearby buildings, both religious and secular are also given attention. Some people have been specially important to developments associated with the river, and brief biographical notes are provided for them. Finally, I would stress that this is very much a personal account dealing with facets of interest to me during the 30 years or so that I spent living and working near the River Tees. Document Navigation I do not provide either a contents list, or an index, but to aid navigation through the document I give here page numbers, on which some places appear first in the text. Place Page No. Source of the River Tees 3 Middleton-in-Teesdale 5 Barnard Castle 9 River Greta confluence 15 Piercebridge 18 Darlington 20 Yarm 28 River Leven confluence 35 Stockton-on-Tees 36 Middlesbrough 37 Saltburn-by-the-Sea 46 Hartlepool 48 There is a sketch map of the river and the main tributaries in Table T1 on Page 50.

  • Norbeck to Clow Beck at Croft
    Norbeck to Clow Beck at Croft In Barningham we all know the Norbeck; it’s the dog-leg bridge below Low Lane on the way to Greta Bridge. It is our beck, and it takes away our effluent from the treatment works below Barningham House farm. But it becomes Hutton Beck as it flows through Hutton Magna and has many different names on its course to the Tees. I recently came across a reference to Aldebrough Beck, “rising near Eppleby “ and thought, “No! that is our Norbeck and it rises on Barningham Moor.” Left : Osmaril Gill on a bright Autumn morning Searching the OS map I can locate 13 springs on Barningham Moor that feed our Norbeck; there will be many more springs feeding it on its way to the Tees. Osmaril has clear connections with Neolithic habitations and is very atmosheric. Right: Croft Bridge over the Tees Our Norbeck ends up as the Clow Beck and reaches the Tees some half-mile above Croft Bridge. This bridge carried the old Great North Road from Yorkshire into Durham until the advent of the motor age. Geology, Climate, Landform, Landscape and People The geology of the area developed over millions of years and played an important role in developing the landscape we are familiar with; but the changing climate over the countless centuries have also left their mark. This is especially true of the ice ages, especially the last one; mountains were shaved down, river courses changed and whole areas filled up with boulder clay and other alluvium. But man has also had a significant role in creating the place where we live.
