More than 1000 respondents gave their views on issues ranging from Council services to public events and car parking; the responses, including more than 5000 written comments, were analysed, prioritised and published in May 2018 as the Leyburn Town Plan. With reference to Richmondshire District Council’s current Local Plan calling for a large number of new houses to be built in and around Leyburn the survey solicited views on the type and tenure of houses in any new developments.

In essence this route heads over Grinton Moor into Wensleydale, follows the valley westwards, then climbs Buttertubs and returns along Swaledale. Of course that means two long steep climbs and fast descents to cross the high moorland in between the valleys. 1. Pass down through Reeth and cross the river. Shortly after on the right is the Dales Bike Centre. The main road then goes sharp left by the Bridge Inn, but you turn right signed to Leyburn. 2. Climb steeply up, cross a cattle grid and continue on passing Grinton Youth Hostel. The road zig zags over a stream and continues to climb up on to the moorland passing a military area. At a crossroads go straight on and descend in to Leyburn. 3. Turn right as you enter town and go straight over at a mini-roundabout. Descend away from Leyburn on the A684, and then take the first road on the right after 1.5 miles signed Preston and Redmire. 4. Follow this road through to Redmire (short diversion to Bolton Castle) and continue on to Carperby. Another short diversion takes you to Aysgarth Falls. 5. Continue to follow this road up Wensleydale passing through Woodhall and Askrigg.

  • 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.

In the centre of the village there is a high-stepped cross dated 1674 which tells of the time when Carperby had a market (granted in 1305). In the 17th century the village was an important Wensleydale centre of Quakerism with it's classically-styled Friends' Meeting House of 1864. The name of the Wheatsheaf Hotel, located in the village suggests a corn-growing past, and the inn itself was where James Herriot and his bride spent their honeymoon in 1941. There is a well-used village hall, excellent community and beautiful walks from the doorstep! The property nestles within the heart of the village and commands spectacular views to the rear over open fields to Pen Hill.

  • The Penhill Benefice Brochure
    The Penhill Benefice Brochure The Diocese of Leeds In this new diocese, less than three years old, we are working with three core objectives: . Confident Christians: Encouraging personal spiritual renewal with the aim of producing clergy and laity who are confident in God and in the Gospel. Growing Churches: Numerically, spiritually and in their mission to the wider world. Changing communities: For the better, through our partnership with other churches and faith communities, as well as government and third sector agencies. The Anglican Diocese of Leeds comprises five Episcopal Areas, each coterminous with an Archdeaconry. This is now one of the largest dioceses in the country, and its creation is unprecedented in the history of the Church of England. It covers an area of around 2,425 square miles, and a population of around 2,642,400 people. The three former dioceses were created in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to cater for massive population changes brought about by industrialisation and, later, mass immigration. The diocese comprises major cities (Bradford, Leeds, Wakefield), large industrial and post-industrial towns (Halifax, Huddersfield, Dewsbury), market towns (Harrogate, Skipton, Ripon, Richmond and Wetherby), and deeply rural areas (the Dales). The whole of life is here, along with all the richness, diversity and complexities of a changing world. The Diocesan Bishop (The Rt Rev’d Nick Baines) is assisted by five Area Bishops (Bradford, Huddersfield, Kirkstall, Wakefield and Ripon), and five archdeacons (Bradford, Halifax, Leeds, Pontefract, Richmond & Craven). The Bishop of Ripon is the Rt Rev’d Dr. Helen-Ann Hartley. Our vision as the Diocese is about confident clergy equipping confident Christians to live and tell the good news of Jesus Christ.

  • Review of Polling Districts, Polling Places & Polling Stations
    Elect ra Elections – polling arrangements Review of polling districts, polling places & polling stations Background information and the Returning Officer’s proposals If you have any comments or questions please contact: Electoral Registration Officer Richmondshire District Council Mercury House Station Road Richmond North Yorkshire DL10 4JX [email protected] or or complete an online survey at www.richmondshire.gov.uk/surveys/polling by 13 September 2019. Polling District and Places Review 2018/2019 Background Within each Local Authority area, legislation requires Councils to carry out reviews of Polling Districts and Polling Places in that area. The Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013 introduced a change to the timing of compulsory reviews and the next review must be held between 1 October 2018 and 31 January 2020 with subsequent reviews held within a 16 month period starting on 1 October every fifth year after 1 October 2018. The Council’s last review was held in 2013 when a number of minor changes were made. The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) carried out a District Ward Boundary Review and published their final proposals in May 2018. The number of wards reduced from 24 to 16 and took effect at the District Council Elections on 2 May 2019. The majority of our current polling station allocations were not affected by the new Ward Boundary arrangements, however three areas would have been affected. Council at its meeting on 24 July 2018 approved a review of the current polling station allocations for Colburn, Gayles and Richmond parishes as a result of revisions to their parish electoral arrangements.
