Fa*k.t family. The path later veers across a meadow to meet a lane near Leathley Bridge. We cross the tributary River Washburn and pass Leathley Lodge, joining Leathley Lane (86l6l) which meanders into Leathley village' Notice the stocks near the Norman church of St. Oswald, also the lSth century almshouses which contained a school and hospital. Through Leathley, we take a footpath which re- crosses the Washburn and climbs near Farnley Lake to meet Famley Lane which passes the lodge and entrance to Farnley Hall. Fieldpaths take us up to Farnley and Farnley Church. There is a long view down Wharfedate to the Arthington viaduct and beyond. The access driveway to Haddockstones Farm becomes a track to Haddockstones Plantation, a freldpath then continuing over Farnley Moor with enensive views along and across Wharfedale (from our highest point today of 680 ft.) including Otley Chevin, the'Guiseley gap' and llkley Moor. Contouring fieldpaths aim for Clifton and we join the Six Dales Trail. We cross Newall Carr Road, taking the lane which descends through the timeless hamlet. Notice Chapel House, its foundation lone dated 1900. The Six Dales Trail aims for Newall but we continue down an enclosed footpath, wentually spilling into fields below with views over Otley. We pass through East Wood and emerge onto Weston Lane.

The Recorders, together with A. J. Wallis (Secretary), form the Reports Committee. REPORT for 1970 - Compiled by John R. Mather Owing to continuing business pressures, the Editor of the Ornithological Report, Athol J. Wallis, has unfortunately had to give up the task. He will still act as editor of the reports for 1967, 68 and 69 and these will be published in one issue as soon as possible. In order to bring things up to date it was felt desirable to publish the 1970 report without further delay and future reports will be published promptly in July each year. In spite of the lack of reports for the past three years, the number of records received has been excellent and my thanks are extended to all those who have sent in their observations, either to the vice-county recorders or to their Local Society recorders. I have been fortunate this year in being able to extract much material from the published Local Reports.

  • Ilkley U3A Railway Group Visit Leeds to York Via Harrogate
    Ilkley U3A Railway Group visit Leeds to York via Harrogate Thursday 8th December 2016 9:38 from Ilkley Leeds Station for 10:29 to York via Harrogate Waiting for the 10:29 departure to York via Harrogate No driver in sight at departure time! Over River Aire & Kirkstall Road Viaducts Through Bramhope Tunnel The Bramhope Tunnel is 2.138 miles long and constructed during 1845–1849. It is notable for its length, for its crenelated north portal, which is Grade II listed, and for the deaths of 24 men during its construction, commemorated in Otley churchyard with a castellated replica of the north portal. Crossing the Arthington Viaduct Built in a curve some 500 yards in length, with 21 semi-circular arches on high piers. In excess of 50,000 tons of stone were used in its construction Arrival & departure at Weeton Leaving Pannal. Heading towards Crimple Viaduct Previous and existing rail lines overlaid on modern maps of Harrogate Detail showing the 20 mph curve leading to Crimple Viaduct Views from driving cab of HS2 on route to Harrogate c. 1990 Satellite Image showing curve of track to Crimple Viaduct The line passed over Crimple Viaduct then northwards towards the Stray but, just short of the Stray swung north- west into a tunnel for about a quarter of mile before exiting into a cutting after passing under Leeds Road. The first train arrived in Brunswick Station on 20 July,1848. A change of heart (or an eye to profits) permitted a line across the Stray, but in a cutting, and the creation of (the present) Harrogate Station; Brunswick closed on 1st August,1862.
