But by the same token, these are exciting times for us. No-one has any doubt that in 2029 the Church of England in South Yorkshire and the East Riding will look very different from the way it is now — but equally no- one is yet very clear about the shape it will take. Our plan is an ambitious one and we are hungry for change. We are asking tough questions. Will the whole people of God be mobilised for the whole mission of God? What will morale be like, among key lay and ordained leaders? Will attendance figures be in decline or growing? Will there be more stipendiary incumbents or fewer? Will there be more congregations or fewer? Will we raise up a dynamic community of ‘Lights for Christ’? Will we grow a praying community of 2025 by 2025? These questions were already pressing ones for us before the present pandemic: they will surely be even more urgent for us now.

  • Doncaster Historic Designed Landscapes Project Campsmount Park
    YORKSHIRE GARDENS TRUST Doncaster Historic Designed Landscapes Project Campsmount Park Report by Mary Ratcliffe [April 2019] 1. CORE DATA 1.1 Name of site: Campsmount Park 1.2 Grid reference: SE 538 140 1.3 Administrative area: Norton Civil Parish, South Yorkshire County (modern), West Riding of Yorkshire County (historic) 1.4 Current site designation: Not on Historic England’s Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest 2. SUMMARY OF HISTORIC INTEREST The landscape of Campsmount Park reflects the continued ownership by the Yarborough family from the 17th century to the 1930s. Thomas Yarborough (1687-1772) masterminded the development of Campsmount Park. With a strong interest in contemporary landscape design, in the early-to-mid 1700s Thomas Yarborough commissioned woodland walks, tree planting, a summer house and a walled garden on the slopes to the north of his existing house, Brayton Hall. In the 1750s he completed his revised estate with the construction of his new house, Campsmount, designed by Robert Carr, and Campsmount (Home) Farm, designed by his son, John Carr. Brayton Hall was demolished. George Cooke-Yarborough, a successor in the early 19th century, made some changes to Campsmount and commissioned a new landscape plan from John Webb of Staffordshire. However, little of the plan was effected apart from the enlargement of five existing fish ponds to form one much larger fish pond. Although minor amendments were made to the walled garden and pleasure grounds in the late 19th century, the landscape design remained mostly unaltered until the mid-20th century. Campsmount, the summer house and contents of the walled garden were demolished in the 1950s.
