Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) would like to thank all who have contributed to both phases of work. 1995-1997 Survey: OA North would like to thank Bob Orrel for his assistance and for enlightening us with his intimate knowledge of the history of the valley, and Mike Davies-Shiel for making available the results of his extensive industrial research in the region. We are also grateful to Forest Enterprise for the invaluable archaeological work by their staff, which prompted this investigation. David Bowcock (Carlisle Record Office) and Katy Goodrum (Whitehaven Record Office), and Ken Harrison (Lancaster University Library) are thanked for help in locating and accessing sources. Dr Angus Winchester, Department of History, Lancaster University, discussed his research into the medieval landscape of Copeland, and supplied copies, transcripts, and translations. OA North is grateful to the staff of Cumbria Record Offices (Carlisle and Whitehaven), especially Barbara Clark, and to David Bridge and Dave Banks of the West Cumbria Mines Research Group who provided numerous published reports, many of which are not available in libraries. The fieldwork was directed by Andrew Croft, Imogen Grundon and Ian Scott and assisted by Johnathon Cooke, Graham Mottershead and Ian Price. The desk-based study was undertaken by Nigel Neil, the project being managed by Jamie Quartermaine. The report was written by Andrew Croft, Imogen Grundon, Nigel Neil and Ian Scott and edited by Jamie Quartermaine and Richard Newman. 2003 Survey: thanks are due to Robert Maxwell, Jeremy Barlow, Rachel Yanik and Jamie Lund (National Trust) for their assistance and support in the course of the project, and to Eleanor Kingston and John Hodgson of the Lake District National Park Authority (LDNPA) for their help and support throughout the project The 2003 survey was supervised by Neil Wearing and assisted by Peter Schofield, Chris Ridings and Rod Bale. The original desk-based study by Nigel Neil was supplemented in 2003 by Jo Dawson. The present landscape survey report was written by Nigel Neil, Neil Wearing and Jamie Quartermaine and edited by Jamie Quartermaine, Emily Mercer and Rachel Newman. The project was managed by Jamie Quartermaine. For the use of The National Trust and Forest Enterprise OA North: September 2003 Ennerdale Historic Landscape Survey 5 SUMMARY Oxford Archaeology North (OA North), formerly Lancaster University Archaeological Unit (LUAU), at the request of The National Trust and Forest Enterprise, undertook a season of management assessment survey of land in Ennerdale in May 2003 (NY 0905 1584 – 2148 1077), following three previous seasons of survey between April 1995 and April 1997 undertaken by LUAU. The purpose of the earlier work was to evaluate the archaeological resource to enable its preservation during felling. The purpose of the present fourth season of the survey was to provide a narrative history of the valley for the ‘Wild Ennerdale’ project, a partnership between the three main landowners in the valley (The National Trust, Forest Enterprise and United Utilities). The report will provide a management resource for the partnership in order to help guide the evolution of the valley towards a more ‘wild’ landscape, with greater emphasis on natural processes to shape its landscape and ecology. The earlier phases of the survey recorded the archaeological landscapes

  • My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership Number: 3812 First Fell Climbed
    My 214 Story Name: Christopher Taylor Membership number: 3812 First fell climbed: Coniston Old Man, 6 April 2003 Last fell climbed: Great End, 14 October 2019 I was a bit of a late-comer to the Lakes. My first visit was with my family when I was 15. We rented a cottage in Grange for a week at Easter. Despite my parents’ ambitious attempts to cajole my sister Cath and me up Scafell Pike and Helvellyn, the weather turned us back each time. I remember reaching Sty Head and the wind being so strong my Mum was blown over. My sister, 18 at the time, eventually just sat down in the middle of marshy ground somewhere below the Langdale Pikes and refused to walk any further. I didn’t return then until I was 28. It was my Dad’s 60th and we took a cottage in Coniston in April 2003. The Old Man of Coniston became my first summit, and I also managed to get up Helvellyn via Striding Edge with Cath and my brother-in-law Dave. Clambering along the edge and up on to the still snow-capped summit was thrilling. A love of the Lakes, and in particular reaching and walking on high ground, was finally born. Visits to the Lakes became more regular after that, but often only for a week a year as work and other commitments limited opportunities. A number of favourites established themselves: the Langdale Pikes; Lingmoor Fell; Catbells and Wansfell among them. I gradually became more ambitious in the peaks I was willing to take on.

  • February 2008: the Christmas Issue. New Year, New Races
    NewsieBlack Combe Runners February 2008: the Christmas issue. New year, new races. New beer. It came as a shock when Will asked me for some words for the Newsie, as I was now Club Captain, but knowing I can’t wriggle out, here they are. Firstly, thanks to those at the AGM for your show of faith in me seeing that I’ve only been in the club a year, and thanks to Penny for her support as Captain. Both Hazel and I have been really pleased with the reception and friendliness of all in the club over the last year and it has made a huge difference to the enjoyment we’ve had running. We all run for fun, for some it is running and chatting on a Tuesday night, for others it is racing and drinking as much as is financially viable at the weekend. Our aim has to be to maintain this and help people to take part and stretch themselves when and where they want to. This photograph was taken by Dave Watson. That’s the only explanation I can offer. Ed. The winter league races, excellently organised by Val with her mallet, have attracted a lot of interest with 26 people We had 9 wanting to run last year so it’s a reasonable having competed in the first four races, most having hope. As a number of us found out in running it for the run two or more. The overall result is still wide open, first time in 2007, it’s a great team day out, with a little particularly as Val hasn’t told us how she will handicap us running thrown in and a few beers afterwards.

  • The Fell Runner Spring 1977 the Greatest Selection of Gear for Fell Runners in Britain
    THE FELL RUNNER SPRING 1977 THE GREATEST SELECTION OF GEAR FOR FELL RUNNERS IN BRITAIN We specialise in gear for fellmen and orienteers. We use the gear ourselves in events like the Vaux Mountain Trial and the Karrimor Mountain Marathon — and you don't get tougher events than those! So take your pick from the selection below. If you are in urgent need of gear and have an Access Card or Barclaycard, then all you need to do is phone us with your order and card number and the gear will be in the post that same day. If ordering by post, then do give us your English size (plus Continental size if known) and also send us an outline of your foot (stand on a piece of paper in your socks and draw around your toot). All weights quoted are for a pair of size 8, and are approximate. FELL SHOES THE FINNISH NOKIA. A very strong studded shoe at an extremely attractive price. Strong P.V.C. coated nylon upper (green) with a strong multi studded sole. Will stand up to a lot of bashing. Weight: 680 grams (24 ozs) Sizes 34-39 £5.75 Sizes 40-48 £6.50. COMPASSROSEN WEDGE. This studded shoe from Sweden, when combined with an Adidas inner sole, is our favourite fell shoe. One pair did 18 hours out of 24 in the record breaking Lakeland 24 hour run in 1975 and looked almost new at the finish.We send you an Adidas Inner Sole (price £1.40) which is slightly larger than the sole and then you cut the toe so that it fits the shoe exactly, and so doesn't move.
