Situation Swale Farmhouse is well situated, lying within a soughtafter and accessible location occupying an elevated position within Swaledale. The property is approached from a private driveway to the south side of the B6260 Richmond to Reeth Road approximately 8 miles from Richmond, 3 miles from Reeth and 2 miles from Grinton. Description Swale Farmhouse is a Grade 2 listed traditional stone built farmhouse under a stone slate roof believed to date from the 18th Century with later 19th Century alterations. Formerly divided into two properties with outbuildings at both ends the property now offers considerable potential for conversion and renovation to provide a beautifully situated family home or possibly multiple dwellings (subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents). The house itself while needing full modernisation benefits from well-proportioned rooms. The house extends to just over 3,000 sq ft as shown on the floorplan with a total footprint of over 7,000 sq ft including the adjoining buildings. The property has the benefit of an adjoining grass paddock ideal for use as a pony paddock or for general enjoyment. There are lovely views from the property up and down Swaledale and opportunities such as this are extremely rare.

  • Protocols Part 2
    Classification Protocols Part II Ancient, Veteran and Notable: The Specifics of Protocols Application Toby Hindson 2010 for the Ancient Yew Group DRAFT 3.2 Grateful thanks to the AYG core members who have commented on and assisted with the various drafts of the Protocol document, namely: Tim Hills, Paul Greenwood, Andy McGeeney and Fred Hageneder. Particular thanks to Russell Ball for his valuable comments on Draft 2.1 of this document, and to Timothy Laurie for his energy, expertise and generous collaboration during the creation of the cliff yew chapter. 1 | P a g e AYG Classification Protocols Part II Ancient, Veteran and Notable: The Specifics of Protocol Application. A new classification of our yew population Copyright Toby Hindson 2010 The function of this document is to underpin the protocols briefly described in Part I that the AYG uses to recognise Ancient, Veteran and Notable yew trees, Taxus baccata. Explained, illustrated and quantified with worked examples of methodology, here the reader can find the specifics of how the protocols have been applied, and our reasons for thinking that the application is correct. We hope that we have achieved clarity and transparency, and that those people with a need to understand the fundamentals of what we have done can find precise answers in the following material. It is important to note that yews are only put into the categories when it is clear that they belong there for a particular well argued reason. Many Ancient, Veteran and Notable yews, especially those of low girth that belong in each category will go unregistered unless researched and submitted; the classification system was deliberately designed to be flexible and expandable in order to accommodate methodologies which reveal the age of the smaller yews; we welcome additions to the protocol system which will be periodically updated.

    Minutes of a meeting of Leyburn Town Council held in the Oak Room, Thornborough Hall on Monday, 15th July 2019 at 7.00pm PRESENT: Cllr Alderson Cllr Beswick Cllr Holder Cllr Medley Cllr Sanderson Cllr Waites Cllr Walker IN ATTENDANCE: Cllr Sedgwick Mrs C Smith- Clerk Ms Rebecca Hurst- Deputy Clerk Representatives from the Police and Hambleton & Richmondshire Fire Service Four members of the public 4229. PUBLIC REPRESENTATIONS Residents raised concerns over the increase in dog fouling in the Rowan Court area and expressed dissatisfaction with the standard of the verges cutting. Cllr Sedgewick reported back to the Council on a meeting attended with the highways improvement manager to discuss the safety of Moor rd. Highways responded to the following four proposed solutions to improve pedestrian safety; 1. A painted footway on the road –May give false sense of security to pedestrians. 2. Waiting restrictions painted on the carriageway-This would prevent parking on the road, however the highways consider that the parked cars act as traffic calming and slow the traffic down. 3. A pedestrian activated sign 4. Creating a priority over oncoming vehicles- This may cause congestion of traffic backing up the road. Cllr Sedgewick concluded by informing the Council that the highways do not consider Moor Road safety as a high priority, therefore no further steps will be taken at the moment due to financial restrictions. Cllr Sedgewick also updated the council that Metcalfe farms have installed signage at the end of their road instructing traffic to turn right to try to reduce the traffic on Moor Road.

  • Yorkshire Swale Flood History 2013
    Yorkshire Swale flood history 2013 Sources The greater part of the information for the River Swale comes from a comprehensive PhD thesis by Hugh Bowen Willliams to the University of Leeds in 1957.He in turn has derived his information from newspaper reports, diaries, local topographic descriptions, minutes of Local Authority and Highway Board and, further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts. The information is supplemented by various conversations which Williams had with farmers who owned land adjacent to the river. Where possible the height of the flood at the nearest cross- section of the place referred to in the notes is given. This has either been levelled or estimated from the available data. Together with the level above Ordnance Datum (feet) and the section in question there is given (in brackets) the height of the flood above normal water level. Information is also included from the neighbouring dales (mainly Wensleydale and Teesdale) as this gives some indication of conditions in Swaledale. Williams indicates that this is by no means a complete list, but probably contains most of the major floods in the last 200 years, together with some of the smaller ones in the last 70 years. Date and Rainfall Description sources 11 Sep 1673 Spate carried away dwelling house at Brompton-on-Swale. Burnsell Bridge on the Wharfe was washed away.
