  • THE LIFE and FAMILY of THOMAS NICHOLSON of ROUNDHAY PARK" © by Neville Hurworth
    From Oak Leaves, Part 1, Spring 2001 - published by Oakwood and District Historical Society [ODHS] "THE LIFE AND FAMILY OF THOMAS NICHOLSON OF ROUNDHAY PARK" © by Neville Hurworth Many thousands of visitors come to Roundhay Park each year to attend the several major events hosted annually by Leeds City Council such as music festivals and the November bonfire and fireworks display, or to enjoy the delights of the Tropical World and Canal Gardens. Others are simply content to stroll through the trees and round the Lakes, or to sit and admire the view in such pleasant surroundings as the Park offers in full measure all the year round. Some of these visitors may know that the Park was for many years part of the Roundhay estate of the Nicholson family. I suspect that very few of them though, will have heard of Thomas Nicholson (1764 -1821), who in the early 19th century, acquired this estate and created the main features of Roundhay Park as we know it today. Thomas Nicholson was a Quaker, born into a comfortable but none too wealthy clothier's family in Chapel Allerton. Although he died in Roundhay, he left Chapel Allerton in his early adult years for London where he married and lived for most of his life. Somehow, he found the means to set up as an insurance broker and merchant and acquired great wealth. In 1799 he bought an estate in Chapel Allerton which included Chapel Allerton Hall, and in 1803, along with another Quaker, Samuel Elam, he purchased the Roundhay Estate from Lord Stourton.

    Our ref: 2387/21 Figures for incidents of drink spiking in your region over the last 5 years (year by year) I would appreciate it if the figures can be broken down to the nearest city/town. Can you also tell me the number of prosecutions there have been for the above offences and how many of those resulted in a conviction? Please see the attached document. West Yorkshire Police receive reports of crimes that have occurred following a victim having their drink spiked, crimes such as rape, sexual assault, violence with or without injury and theft. West Yorkshire Police take all offences seriously and will ensure that all reports are investigated. Specifically for victims of rape and serious sexual offences, depending on when the offence occurred, they would be offered an examination at our Sexual Assault Referral Centre, where forensic samples, including a blood sample for toxicology can be taken, with the victim’s consent, if within the timeframes and guidance from the Faculty for Forensic and Legal Medicine. West Yorkshire Police work with support agencies to ensure that all victims of crime are offered support through the criminal justice process, including specialist support such as from Independent Sexual Violence Advisors.

  • Extension to 40Mph Speed Limit
    Report author: Dave Worton Tel: 07395 600919 Report to the Chief Officer Highways and Transportation Date: 28 July 2020 Subject: Proposed Extension of 40mph Speed Limit on A6120 Ring Road Are specific electoral wards affected? Yes No If yes, name(s) of ward(s): Harewood, Alwoodley and Roundhay Has consultation been carried out? Yes No Are there implications for equality and diversity and cohesion and Yes No integration? Will the decision be open for call-in? Yes No Does the report contain confidential or exempt information? Yes No If relevant, access to information procedure rule number: Appendix number: Summary 1. Main issues Leeds City Council is proposing to implement a Speed Limit Order on the A6120 Ring Road in the above mentioned electoral wards. The introduction of the A6120 Ring Road Cycle Superhighway, the proposed East Leeds Orbital Route (ELOR) Phase 3 Roundabout at Red Hall and a recent upgrade to the Roundhay Park Lane/Park Lane junction have all substantially changed the character of the stretch of road in question. The proposal is to reduce the current 60mph speed limit to 40mph, from a point approximately 40m east of The Pines to a point approximately 116m south of Elmete Lane. 2. Best Council Plan Implications (click here for the latest version of the Best Council Plan) Improving transport connections in terms of safety. 3. Resource Implications The estimated cost of implementing the associated Speed Limit Order is £7,500, subject to satisfactory completion of the advertising and making of the necessary Order. The scheme is to be funded by a Section 106 contribution associated with the ELOR Advanced Junctions Phase 1 works.

The Research Centre for Museums and Galleries (RCMG) was approached in November 2002 to evaluate this three-year programme. The evaluation of the Open minds programme is a requirement of the Heritage Lottery Fund and is critical to inform future education and learning developments at Harewood House Trust.

  • Leeds' Newcomers in 2019
    Leeds’ newcomers in 2019 A short statistics overview for people who plan or deliver services, and are planning for migrants who are the newest arrivals to Leeds. Photo credits: Steve Morgan [photographer] and Yorkshire Futures [source]. 1. Introduction Who is this briefing paper for? This document is aimed at people who plan or deliver local services in Leeds. You might find you are often the first people who meet and respond to newcomers in the local area. You will know that people who have just arrived in an area often need more information and support than those who have had time to adjust and learn about life in the UK. These newcomers might benefit from information about key services for example, in their first language. This briefing paper provides an overview of the numbers and geographical patterns of new migrants who recently have come to live in Leeds and were issued with a national insurance number [NINO] in 2019. We hope you will find the information presented here useful for planning services and engagement with new communities, making funding applications, or for background research for you or your colleagues to better understand migration in your area. Where has the data come from? This briefing paper was produced by Migration Yorkshire in September 2020. This document uses information from the Department for Work and Pensions [DWP] about non-British nationals who successfully applied for a NINO in 2019. We have used this as a proxy for newcomers, because new arrivals usually need to apply for a NINO in order to work or claim benefits.
