    PONTEFRACT, CASTLEFORD AND KNOTTINGLEY Author: Peter Cookson Number of Pages: 112 pages Published Date: 17 Feb 2003 Publisher: Bellcode Books Publication Country: Rudston, United Kingdom Language: English ISBN: 9781871233155 DOWNLOAD: PONTEFRACT, CASTLEFORD AND KNOTTINGLEY Pontefract, Castleford and Knottingley PDF Book JeanCamp,HelenNissenbaum,CathleenMcGrath GroupsandAnonymity OntheSecurityofHomageGroupAuthenticationProtocol. With verve and self- assurance, it addresses a broad, central question: How can we improve our understanding of the large-scale processes and structures that transformed the world of the nineteenth century and are transforming our world today. Anstey takes us into new terrain and new interpretations of Locke's thought in his explorations of his mercurialist transmutational chymistry, his theory of generation by seminal principles, and his conventionalism about species. This second edition is fully revised and updated to include changes to the UK law as a result of recent EU legislation, which will have a significant impact on archivists and archival researchers. Research directors and legislative or administrative advisers do not have the time to scan the escalating number of technical publications that may contain articles mtportant to current responsibility. The author's treatment is mathematically thorough and consistent, and the book gives the necessary background on existential and conceptual graphs. Each of the chapters reviews current knowledge in a defined area of ecohydraulic experimental research. Embryology at a Glance introduces the basic principles of human development, from mitosis and meiosis, and walks you through the primary formation of each body system, with coverage of the continued development of the respiratory and vascular systems during the foetal and neonatal periods. Nonetheless there are overlaps that many families will identify with.

  • Wakefield Seven Area Profile Selection: Pontefract and Knottingley Statistics, Charts and Maps Describing Wakefield's Area Working Areas
    InstantAtlas™ Server 6 Wakefield Seven Area Profile Selection: Pontefract and Knottingley Statistics, charts and maps describing Wakefield's Area Working areas. Introduction A wide variety of social, economic and cultural conditions exist across the Wakefield district, and these combine to create a patchwork of distinctive communities and neighbourhoods. These differences may prompt agencies to deliver services in particular ways and the priorities for local people in one area may be different to those of people living in another area. The Wakefield Together area working model has been developed to reflect and address the differences that exist across the district. For the purposes of area working, the district is divided into seven areas: Castleford; Normanton and Featherstone; Pontefract and Knottingley; South East; Wakefield Central; Wakefield North West; and Wakefield Rural. Some of the seven areas also include ‘priority neighbourhoods’ where intelligence suggests that specific targeted support is required. There are 12 priority neighbourhoods in the district overall. The Council’s Performance and Intelligence Team, collaborating with partners, has developed a set of more detailed reports to focus on each of the seven areas in turn. This report focuses on the Pontefract and Knottingley area. The aim of the report is to help people understand local conditions and the changes that occur over time. The report draws on both quantitative and qualitative information from a wide range of sources – both national and local. Profile created: 9/1/2017 Key Points Population Profile The proportion of people satisfied with their local area as a place to live is around the district average. The age profile of the population is very similar to the district average and has aged over the past 10 years - older people now make up a higher proportion of the population.

  • PONTEFRACT CASTLE a Tourist’S Guide to Interesting Archaeological Sites in West Yorkshire
    Registry of Deeds Newstead Road Wakefield, WF1 2DE 01924 306797 [email protected] PONTEFRACT CASTLE A tourist’s guide to interesting archaeological sites in West Yorkshire [A view across the bailey at Pontefract Castle. The remains of the keep can be seen above the castle mound.] History After the Norman Conquest the manor of Pontefract was given to Ilbert do Lacy as part of a vast landholding which became known as the honour of Pontefract. It was owned by the de Lacy family until 1311 when it passed to Thomas of Lancaster. The castle was confiscated by the king after the rebellion and subsequent execution of Thomas in 1314. It was returned to Henry of Lancaster (Thomas’ brother) in 1327, but again became a royal possession when Henry Bolingbroke, heir to the Lancaster estates, was crowned king after his usurpation of Richard II in 1399. The castle has remained a Crown possession ever since. Given the importance of the castle and its owners it is not surprising that it has witnessed some of the major events of northern history. Thomas of Lancaster was beheaded on a small hill outside the castle walls. Richard II died a prisoner in the castle in what can only be described as suspicious circumstances. In 1536 the castle was temporarily taken over by the Pilgrimage of Grace, a northern rebellion against the rule of Henry VIII. The castle was besieged three times 1 during the English Civil War and was the last stronghold in England to hold out for the King. The castle was demolished in 1649.

  • In Memory of the Souls of the Members of the Parish of St Joseph Who Fell in World War I 1914 -1918
    IN MEMORY OF THE SOULS OF THE MEMBERS OF THE PARISH OF ST JOSEPH WHO FELL IN WORLD WAR I 1914 -1918 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Compiled by Hannah Jones and Kate Jones with additional information provided by Ron Limb, Patricia Heath and Margaret Gallagher. With extracts from The Pontefract & Castleford Express and other sources. Many of you will be aware that in St Joseph’s church we have a substantial war memorial to those who died in the First and Second World Wars. As we approach the 100 year remembrance of WWI, we’re reminded of the grim price that was paid by men from our own streets. This booklet tells us a little more about the men listed on the memorial. Some of these men may have family still alive in the parish; many will not. It is our collective responsibility as Catholics not only to remember but also to pray for their immortal souls. We must forget neither them nor the unfailing mercy of Almighty God. Fr Simon Lodge Parish Priest November 2018 Company Serjeant Major Matthew Aithwaite, 5963, "B" Company, 2nd Battalion, York and Lancaster Regiment. Died on 21 September 1916, aged 35. Matthew is buried at Grove Town Cemetery, Meaulte, and the inscription on his headstone reads: "ON WHOSE SOUL SWEET JESUS HAVE MERCY FROM WIFE & CHILDREN." Eternal rest, grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen. Private John Ashton, 2901, 5th Battalion, King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry Died on 26 December 1915, aged 35. John is buried at Hospital Farm Cemetery, West-Vlaanderen, Belgium.
