  • Floods in Carlisle - January 2005
    Floods in Carlisle - January 2005 Heavy rainfall on Friday 7 January led to flooding in Carlisle on Saturday 8th January 2005. The rainfall was prolonged over the high ground of the nearby Lake District and Pennines, draining into the River Eden on which Carlisle is situated. Places in western Scotland and north Wales also recorded high rainfall amounts from this event because of similar conditions in a south-westerly airstream. Impacts Three people were killed, many homes and businesses were flooded and schools were closed. There was widespread transport disruption with all of Carlisle's buses damaged. Appleby, Cockermouth and Keswick also had flooding. This was the worst flood to affect Carlisle since 1822. The following are links to the BBC News website. Weather data On the 7th a westerly airstream affected the UK with a near stationary weather front across northern England and southern Scotland. A very deep depression then tracked eastwards across southern Scotland on the 8th. Details of the wind associated with this system are given January 2005 - stormy spells The highest rainfall (180.4 mm) was recorded at Rydal Hall, Cumbria and this is estimated as likely to occur less oen than once in 200 years. Many places had over 100 mm of rain in one day with several having a once in more than 30 years event. The synoptic situation at 12 GMT on Friday 7 January 2005. Shown below are the rainfall rates detected by the rainfall radar network every 15 minutes from 1800 on 7 January to 0300 on 8 January 2005. This map gives the distribution of rainfall

  • Political Society in Cumberland and Westmorland 1471-1537
    Political Society in Cumberland and Westmorland 1471-1537 By Edward Purkiss, BA (Hons). Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. School of History and Classics University of Tasmania. 2008. This Thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the thesis, nor does the thesis contain any material that infringes copyright. 30 May, 2008. I place no restriction on the loan or reading of this thesis and no restriction, subject to the law of copyright, on its reproduction in any form. 11 Abstract The late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries have often been seen as a turning point in the development of the English state. At the beginning of the period the authority of the Crown was offset by powerful aristocratic interests in many regional areas. By the mid sixteenth century feudal relationships were giving way to a centrally controlled administration and government was reaching into regional political communities through direct connections between the Crown and local gentlemen. This thesis will trace these developments in Cumberland and Westmorland. It will argue that archaic aspects of government and society lingered longer here than in regions closer London. Feudal relationships were significant influences on regional political society well beyond the mid sixteenth century. This was a consequence of the area's distance from the centre of government and its proximity to a hostile enemy.

In Christian thought, life has always been deemed sacred because only God can give life. That idea of the sanctity of life does, however, have its Morland and Newby WI - Visitors are always welcome at our events, especially if you are difficulties. It creates tension in questions of war, medical ethics and wider social ethics. But, perhaps new to the area one of the most subtle and least recognised area where the sanctity of life is under threat in our society is Thursday 11th July at 7.30pm in the way we treat one another.
