  • Cadishead Viaduct and the Cheshire Lines Rail Line
    Proposal to re-open Cadishead Viaduct and the Cheshire Lines rail line The art of the possible! This document has been produced by Hamilton Davies Trust (HDT) to provide background and scope for the Cadishead Viaduct potential re-opening debate. HDT has been heavily involved in the regeneration of Irlam and Cadishead since 2008, working with key local, regional and national stakeholders to make Irlam and Cadishead an even better place to live, work and enjoy. As part of our regeneration agenda, the poor state and appearance of Cadishead Viaduct has been a topic of conversation for some time. Two years ago we started to investigate the possibility of improving its appearance and putting the bridge back into use. This document summarises the history of the bridge and the compelling opportunities re-opening the viaduct would bring. HDT has now adopted the project and is championing the reopening of the viaduct for multi modal use including a new section of the national cycleway, footpath and heritage railway amongst other options. Cadishead Viaduct Built in 1893, Cadishead Viaduct is a magnificent structure which dominates the landscape across the Manchester Ship Canal. Originally constructed to run the Cheshire Lines railway over the newly built canal, the viaduct helped to service the busy factories in the area, transporting raw materials and finished goods, as well as some passenger services. Due to the decline in industry, the rail line closed to passengers in 1965 and eventually to freight in 1984 when coal exports ceased. With the line no longer in use and the high cost of maintenance, the bridge was eventually closed and industrial containers positioned at either side to prevent access to the structure.

  • The Use of Testate Amoebae in Monitoring Peatland Restoration Management: Case Studies from North West England and Ireland
    Acta Protozool. (2013) 52: 129–145 http://www.eko.uj.edu.pl/ap ActA doi:10.4467/16890027AP.13.0013.1110 Protozoologica Special issue: Protists as Bioindicators of Past and Present Environmental Conditions The Use of Testate Amoebae in Monitoring Peatland Restoration Management: Case Studies from North West England and Ireland Julie VALENTINE1, Stephen R. DAVIS2, Jason R. KIRBY1 and David M. WILKINSON1 1Natural Science and Psychology, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool, UK; 2School of Archaeology, University College Dublin, Belfield, Dublin, Ireland Abstract. The nature conservation, and wider environmental importance of peatlands, particularly in relation to carbon management, has led to there being a growing interest in attempting to manage degraded peatlands in a way that will restore them to fully functioning peat- land ecosystems. Much of this management is concerned with the rewetting of these sites therefore it has become important to monitor the surface wetness of these bogs and if possible compare current wetness with previous, pre-damage, conditions. We present previously unpublished case studies of the use of testate amoebae to monitor bog restoration schemes in N.W. England (Holcroft Moss, Cheshire) and Ireland (Ardagullion Bog, Co. Longford). In addition we summarise the key conservation related conclusions of our previously published work on two other sites in N.W. England – Astley Moss (in the Chat Moss complex of Greater Manchester) and Danes Moss (Cheshire). At Holcroft the record of lead pollution from the peat core allows us to date recent changes in the testate community preserved in a peat core and relate these to both conservation management and other changes in the landscape around the bog in over the last 50 years.

  • The Development of the Railway Network in Britain 1825-19111 Leigh Shaw-Taylor and Xuesheng You 1
    The development of the railway network in Britain 1825-19111 Leigh Shaw-Taylor and Xuesheng You 1. Introduction This chapter describes the development of the British railway network during the nineteenth century and indicates some of its effects. It is intended to be a general introduction to the subject and takes advantage of new GIS (Geographical Information System) maps to chart the development of the railway network over time much more accurately and completely than has hitherto been possible. The GIS dataset stems from collaboration by researchers at the University of Cambridge and a Spanish team, led by Professor Jordi Marti-Henneberg, at the University of Lleida. Our GIS dataset derives ultimately from the late Michael Cobb’s definitive work ‘The Railways of Great Britain. A Historical Atlas’. Our account of the development of the British railway system makes no pretence at originality, but the chapter does present some new findings on the economic impact of the railways that results from a project at the University of Cambridge in collaboration with Professor Dan Bogart at the University of California at Irvine.2 Data on railway developments in Scotland are included but we do not discuss these in depth as they fell outside the geographical scope of the research project that underpins this chapter. Also, we focus on the period up to 1911, when the railway network grew close to its maximal extent, because this was the end date of our research project. The organisation of the chapter is as follows. The next section describes the key characteristics of the British transport system before the coming of the railways in the nineteenth century.

  • Script Timewalk of Chat Moss.Pdf
    Timewalk of Chat Moss Close your eyes and imagine the story under your feet. The Timewalk of the 35 square kilometres of Chat Moss is incredible and starts 4 and a half billion years ago, when the earth formed. 2.7 billion years ago algae-like cells formed. They started producing oxygen, and it took 350 million years for them to make enough oxygen to turn the sky blue for the first time. More than a billion years later the first recognisable animals appeared jelly-fish and sponges in the sea. 360 million years ago the rainforest of the Carboniferous period grew which were later to form the Lancashire Coalfields. Coal formed and was buried, taking huge quantities of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. This cooled the planet. Coal seams were formed under Chat Moss. Continents shifted. The dinosaurs ruled the earth from 245 million years until 66 million years ago, possibly wiped out by a major asteroid that hit the earth. The Timewalk now moves forward rapidly. Our early ancestors started using stone tools 2 and a half million years ago. The earliest fossil record of modern humans is 190,000 years old. As the glaciers retreated from the Mersey Upper Terrace about 10,000 years ago, they left giant clay-lined hollows. This created nutrient-rich pools which gave way to fen carr woodland. By 3500 BCE birch trees dominated the landscape. People were beginning to settle nearby with flints found within the Woolston mosses. By 2500 BCE acid mires, within the hollows, became nutrient poor and very wet.
