Dunham, Ph.D. ,S.D. ,F.R.S. ,M.Inst.M*..M. ,F.G.8. Of this time, approximately 12 months (the periods November-December 1952, April- December 1953 and April-June 1954) were spent in the field in North Yorkshire, based in Gilling and Reeth. In July 1954 the author led an excursion of the Yorkshire Geological Society over some of the ground in the vicinity of Richmond, and he is indebted to the members present for helpful discussions in the field. Problems have also been discussed in the field on various occasions with Dr. H.G. Reading (who has re-mapped the Stainmore syncline), Dr. R.W. Hey (who has studied the Crow Series between Richmond and Leyburn) and Mr. J.E. Scanlon (who is engaged in a re-survey of parts of upper Swaledale and upper Wensleydale). Thanks are due to the very large number of land-owners, farmers, quarry managers, insti• tutions and house-holders who readily gave permission for access to their grounds; in particular to the quarry managers of G.-Hodsman Ltd. (Kilmond quarry) and the East Layton Limestone Co. (Ekst Layton quarry) for supplying the analyses which are reproduced in Chapter 6, and to the staff and management of J.T. Hymas (Water Engineers) for co-operation during the examination of bore-bole cores. The author is much indebted to Mr. W. Anderson of H.M.Geological Survey, for access to the official maps and records held at the Newcastle office, and he is grateful to the Geology Department of Leeds University (and particularly to Mr. J. Selwyn Turner) for access to the thesis of Dr. A.J. Rowell. Thanks are due to ii Mr. G. O'Neill for preparing the text figures from original diagrams, for taking the photomicrographs and for photographing a number of rock specimens; a grant from the Durham Colleges Research Fund towards the cost of preparing some of the maps and diagrams for publication is acknowledged. The author is most grateful to Dr. G.A.L. Johnson for help and advice in the preparation of faunal lists, and to Dr. G.Kohnstam and Dr. R.A. Chalmers for physico-chemical advice. He is also indebted to members of the staff and other research students at the Department of Geology, Durham, and indeed to all those who have readily discussed problems associated with this work. Finally he wishes to record his sincere gratitude to Professor K.C. Dunham, who originally suggested the course of research, who" has followed its progress both in the field and in the laboratory, and who has been always ready to give advice, criticism, suggestions and encouragement. • t • 111 LIST OF TEXT FIGURES Facing PAGE Fig. 1 .

  • Subject Guide 1 – Records Relating to Inclosure
    Durham County Record Office County Hall Durham DH1 5UL Telephone: 03000 267619 Email: [email protected] Website: www.durhamrecordoffice.org.uk Subject Guide 1 – Records Relating to Inclosure Issue no. 19 July 2020 Contents Introduction 1 Organisation of List 2 Alphabetical List of Townships 2 A 2 B 2 C 3 D 4 E 4 F 4 G 4 H 5 I 5 K 5 L 5 M 6 N 6 O 6 R 6 S 7 T 7 U 8 W 8 Introduction Inclosure (occasionally spelled “enclosure”) refers to a reorganisation of scattered land holdings by mutual agreement of the owners. Much inclosure of Common Land, Open Fields and Moor Land (or Waste), formerly farmed collectively by the residents on behalf of the Lord of the Manor, had taken place by the 18th century, but the uplands of County Durham remained largely unenclosed. Inclosures, to consolidate land-holdings, divide the land (into Allotments) and fence it off from other usage, could be made under a Private Act of Parliament or by general agreement of the landowners concerned. In the latter case the Agreement would be Enrolled as a Decree at the Court of Chancery in Durham and/or lodged with the Clerk of the Peace, the senior government officer in the County, so may be preserved in Quarter Sessions records. In the case of Parliamentary Enclosure a Local Bill would be put before Parliament which would pass it into law as an Inclosure Act. The Acts appointed Commissioners to survey the area concerned and determine its distribution as a published Inclosure Award.

    Durham Rare Plant Register 2011 Covering VC66 and the Teesdale part of VC65 JOHN L. DURKIN MSc. MIEEM BSBI Recorder for County Durham 25 May Avenue. Winlaton Mill, Blaydon, NE21 6SF [email protected] Contents Introduction to the rare plants register Notes on plant distribution and protection The individual species accounts in alphabetical order Site Index First published 2010. This is the 2011, second edition. Improvements in the 2011 edition include- An additional 10% records, most of these more recent and more precise. One kilometre resolution maps for upland and coastal species. My thanks to Bob Ellis for advice on mapping. The ―County Scarce‖ species are now incorporated into the main text. Hieracium is now included. This edition is ―regionally aligned‖, that is, several species which are county rare in Northumberland, but were narrowly rejected for the Durham first edition, are now included. There is now a site index. Cover picture—Dark Red Helleborine at Bishop Middleham Quarry, its premier British site. Introduction Many counties are in the process of compiling a County Rare Plant Register, to assist in the study and conservation of their rare species. The process is made easier if the county has a published Flora and a strong Biological Records Centre, and Durham is fortunate to have Gordon Graham's Flora and the Durham Wildlife Trust‘s ―Recorder" system. We also have a Biodiversity project, based at Rainton Meadows, to carry out conservation projects to protect the rare species. The purpose of this document is to introduce the Rare Plant Register and to give an account of the information that it holds, and the species to be included.

  • County Durham Landscape Character Assessment: Classification
    LANDSCAPE CHARACTER THE LANDSCAPE CLASSIFICATION The Landscape Classification The County Durham Landscape Character Assessment identifies landscape types and character areas at three different levels - the regional, the sub-regional and the local. Regional County Character Areas Sub-regional Broad Landscape Types Broad Character Areas See Table 1 Local Local Landscape Types See Table 2 Local Sub-types County Character Areas. County Character Areas are based on Natural England’s Countryside Character Areas. There are 6 Countryside Character Areas in County Durham, all of which extend beyond its administrative boundaries. County Character Areas are effectively those parts of Countryside Character Areas lying within the County. The boundaries of County Character Areas are more precisely drawn than those of Countryside Character Areas as they are based on a more detailed level of assessment. In reality the boundaries between these broad landscape zones are often gradual and progressive and difficult to identify precisely on the ground. The character of County Character Areas may differ in some ways from that of the larger Countryside Character Areas to which they belong. The descriptions of County Character Areas given here in the Landscape Assessment may therefore be slightly different to the descriptions given in other publications for Countryside Character Areas. Broad Landscape Types and Character Areas Broad Landscape Types are landscapes with similar patterns of geology, soils, vegetation, land use, settlement and field patterns identified at a broad sub-regional level. As with County Character Areas, the boundaries between Broad Landscape Types are not always precise, as the change between one landscape and another can be gradual and progressive.
