  • 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. North Riding Selseth Bridge in the Parish of Ranbaldkirke became ruinous by reason of the late great storm. Quarter Sessions (NRQS) ?

  • Home from Holland
    Back to Press Cuttings Title 1945 Press Cuttings Source Knaresborough Post 6 January 1945 HOME FROM HOLLAND Knaresborough Man’s Tribute to the Dutch At six o’clock on Wednesday morning, Sapper Harold Stocks, R.E., knocked on the door of his home 10 at 18 Scriven Road, Knaresborough, and received a joyous welcome from his wife, who had expected his arrival the previous night. He was also given a welcome by his young son and a baby daughter, born last October, whom he had never seen. Sapper Stocks is a Harrogate man, whose mother lives at 11 Pine Street, and before joining up in 1942, was in the building trade employed by Messrs C. A. Nettleton and Co. of Harrogate. He went to France on “D Day” and landed with the assault troops. He referred, in an interview with a Press representative, to the Nijmegen sector and to Eindhoven, and spoke very appreciatively of the kindness of the Dutch people. “When I got news of the birth of my little daughter,” he said, “the people in the house in which I was billeted made all kinds of little dresses for me to bring home. They invited us to drink their coffee, and though we didn’t want to take their food we could not refuse 20 without offending them.” Whilst in Holland he met a Belgian woman who once appeared in a conjuring act in the Royal Hall when it was known as the Kursaal. She had married a Dutchman who owned three cinemas in Eindhoven. He had also met three other Harrogate men – Keith Purchase, who is in the C.M.P., Jack Horner, of Bilton, his brother in law, and Arthur Rankine, son of the late “Tommy” Rankine.
