  • Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’S Cotton Frontier C.1890-1950
    Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’s Cotton Frontier c.1890-1950 By Jack Southern A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of a PhD, at the University of Central Lancashire April 2016 1 i University of Central Lancashire STUDENT DECLARATION FORM I declare that whilst being registered as a candidate of the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another aware of the University or other academic or professional institution. I declare that no material contained in this thesis has been used for any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work. Signature of Candidate ________________________________________________ Type of Award: Doctor of Philosophy School: Education and Social Sciences ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the evolution of identity and community within north east Lancashire during a period when the area gained regional and national prominence through its involvement in the cotton industry. It examines how the overarching shared culture of the area could evolve under altering economic conditions, and how expressions of identity fluctuated through the cotton industry’s peak and decline. In effect, it explores how local populations could shape and be shaped by the cotton industry. By focusing on a compact area with diverse settlements, this thesis contributes to the wider understanding of what it was to live in an area dominated by a single industry. The complex legacy that the cotton industry’s decline has had is explored through a range of settlement types, from large town to small village.

  • West Pennine Link with the Pennine Bridleway National Trail
    Report of Meeting Date Corporate Director of General Purposes Committee 18/10/07 Governance HIGHWAYS ACT 1980 – SECTION 25 PROPOSED CREATION OF BRIDLEWAYS – WEST PENNINE LINK WITH THE BRIDLEWAY NATIONAL TRAIL PURPOSE OF REPORT 1. To consider proposals by Lancashire County Council for the creation of a network of bridleways in the Boroughs of Chorley, Hyndburn, Burnley and Rossendale as part of the West Pennine Link with the Pennine Bridleway National Trail. RECOMMENDATION(S) 2. That no objection be raised to the proposal by Lancashire County Council for the creation of a bridleway at White Coppice, Anglezarke. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION(S) 3. Conferring bridleway status on the claimed route would recognise and thus formally protect usage of the route for horse riders. The Council has, however, no direct information on such usage of the route/paths concerned. The Council, whilst not averse to the conferral of bridleway status on the path concerned, is not seeking to promote the claim and would have no evidence to offer should the claim result in the calling of a public local inquiry. In the circumstances, the decision to raise no objection to the claim does not detract from the merits of that claim or commit the Council to support a claim about which it has no information. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS CONSIDERED AND REJECTED 4. The only other alternatives available would have been to endorse the claim, for which the Council has no evidence, or to oppose it, for which course of action the Council equally has no evidence. CORPORATE PRIORITIES 5. This report does not relate to the following Strategic Objectives: Put Chorley at the heart of regional Improved access to public services economic development in the central Lancashire sub region Improving equality of opportunity Develop the character and feel of Updated Template July 2007 and life chance Chorley as a good place to live Involving People in their Ensure Chorley is a performing Communities Organisation BACKGROUND 6.

  • PROGRAMME of EVENTS SEPTEMBER 7–30 2017 Pennine Lancashire Is Shaped by Textiles; They Are Woven Through Its Social and Urban Fabric
    PROGRAMME OF EVENTS SEPTEMBER 7–30 2017 Pennine Lancashire is shaped by textiles; they are woven through its social and urban fabric. By the end of the 19th century the area, stretching along the banks of the Leeds & Liverpool Canal, was producing 85% of the world’s cotton goods and it was this global trade that brought thousands of workers to drive its mills over the ensuing centuries, building a creative, industrious and diverse population that shapes the area today. Drawing on this rich heritage, Fabrications is the UK’s first festival that celebrates and explores textiles and the textile industry through the eyes of artists. Taking place in galleries, museums and former textile mills across Blackburn, Hyndburn, Burnley and Pendle throughout September, the festival presents something for everyone with exhibitions, residencies, workshops, a craft fair hosted by Selvedge magazine and major art installations and performances including the premiere of Suzanne Lacy’s film produced with the people of Pendle.

    3RD OCTOBER —— 3RD NOVEMBER 2019 OF EVENTS PROGRAMME information visit the website at more details & programme For BRITISHTEXTILEBIENNIAL.CO.UK In my many years of working in the fashion industry, I’ve always celebrated the best of British textile traditions. It’s an industry that I love and admire and one that has been in my family for generations. It’s an industry alive with skill, passion and innovation; an industry with both an incredible history and an exciting future. I am delighted to be Patron of the British Textile Biennial to celebrate all of this and to ensure its future by encouraging young people to get engaged with making and manufacturing again. It’s important to Lancashire that the textile industry thrives because it provides great careers for thousands of people but also a great sense of connection with the past and a sense of pride.

Introduction 2. Physical Description of Catchment 3. River Water - Chemical Classification 4 . Discharges and Consents 4.1 Authority Sewage Treatment Works 4.2 Authority Trade Effluent Discharges 4.3 Private Trade Effluent Discharges 4.4 Private Sewage Treatment Works 4 .5 Storm Sewage Overflows 5. Special Cases MARCH 1979 Introduction The purpose of this Report is to make recommendations for the revision of consents for discharges within the catchment of the River Irwell, downstream to and including the River Medlock in Manchester. This revision has the sole objective of recognising the present effluent and river water quality - proposals for long term river water quality objectives are to be put forward in other Reports. The report identifies the existing situation regarding the legal status of effluent discharges from Authority and non-Authority owned installations within the catchment, details the determinand concentration limits included in existing discharge consents (where appropriate) and proposes the limits to be included in the reviewed consents. The reviewed consents will reflect the quality of efflu­ ent achievable by good operation of the existing plant based on 1977 effluent quality data but taking into account any improvements, extensions etc. that have been or are about to be carried out and any known further industrial and/or housing development in the works drainage area. The proposed limits are intended to be the 95% compliance figures rather than the 80% compliance figures inferred in existing consents and hence the new figures will obviously be higher than the old.
