The rear of the southern most dwelling looks onto the site, with their rear gardens sharing a common boundary with the site and the adjacent paddock. 1.2 This application is seeking permission for a change of use of the land in question to allow the siting of two holiday lodges. These holiday lodges will be timber clad static caravans with the external appearance of cabins.

  • Part 1 Rea Ch Classifica Tion
    RIVER QUALITY SURVEY NATIONAL RIVERS AUTHORITY NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 PART 1 REA CH CLASSIFICA TION FRESHWATER RIVERS AND CANALS VERSION 1: AUGUST 1995 GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 \ NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION To allow the development of a National method of evaluating water quality, the rivers in all the NRA regions of England and Wales have been divided into reaches, which are numbered using a coding system based on the hydrological reference for each river basin. Each classified reach then has a chemistry sample point assigned to it and these sample points are regularly monitored for Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Dissolved oxygen (DO) and Total Ammonia. The summary statistics calculated from the results of this sampling are sent to a National Centre where the GQA Grades are calculated. A National report is produced and each region can then produce more detailed reports on the quality of their own rivers. For Northumbria and Yorkshire Region, this Regional Report has been divided into two parts. PARTI: REACH CLASSIFICATION This report contains a listing of the river reaches within the region, with their start and finish grid reference, approximate length, and the 1990 and 1994 GQA class for each reach. The reference code of the chemistry sample point used to classify the reach is also included. A sample point may classify several reaches if there are no major discharges or tributaries dividing those reaches. The sample point used to classify a reach may change and the classification is therefore calculated using the summary statistics for each sample point that has been used over the past three years.

  • England Coast-To-Coast 18D Self-Guided
    WAINWRIGHT’S COAST TO COAST – C2C ICON OF ENGLISH WALKING 18 days / 17-nights – CHALLENGING inn-to-inn SELF-GUIDED long distance walking trail 8, 9 or 15-day walking options also available – ask for details A wonderful walking route first described by the great English writer and illustrator Alfred Wainwright in 1973. This is the quintessential English hill walking and long distance trail experience of over 190 miles, traversing three national parks and an array of scenic and wondrous landscapes, towns, typical English villages and country inns. Beginning at the Cumbrian seaside resort of St. Bees looking out across the Irish Sea the walks heads eastwards (with the usual wind behind your back) into the Lake District passing some of the most famous lakes, passes and optional peak ascents (such as Helvellyn the highest mountain in England). Crossing into the Yorkshire Dales and over the mystical Nine Standards Rigg the route follows the beautiful River Swale for a couple of days into the old market town of Richmond. From here a long walk links with the North York Moors National Park and on to the North Sea Coast and Robins Hoods Bay. Along the way you will be amazed at the neat farm buildings and dry stone walls, the charming villages and what a temptation (and a challenge) a full cooked English breakfast can be. We offer cosy small hotels, guesthouses and pubs to stay at on this tour and these, as well as the rich variety of the people that you meet enroute, reflect something of the great diversity of England.

  • Multiple Sorting for Landscapes
    Journal of Environmental Psychology (1997) 17, 263±281 0272-4944/97/040263+19$25´00/0 1997 Academic Press Limited ENVIRONMENTAL Journal of PSYCHOLOGY PICTURE OR PLACE? A MULTIPLE SORTING STUDY OF LANDSCAPE M. J. SCOTT AND D. V. CANTER Department of Psychology, University of Liverpool, Liverpool, L69 3BX, U.K. Abstract Previous research has often used photographs as a tool for examining preference for landscape and in clarify- ing an understanding of what is aesthetically pleasing. Implicit in their use is the assumption that they will be regarded by the participants as representing the places shown. The present study demonstrates that there is a theoretical and empirical distinction between evaluations of pictures and evaluations of the places they represent, and thus future research needs to distinguish between evaluating the content of the photograph and the places represented in them. Using a sorting task, 41 participants sorted 20 photographs of local places, which they knew, in a free sort and a directed sort. The directed short instructed the participants to think about the places in the photo- graphs, and to sort the items according to their knowledge of those place. Analysis of the first sort showed that items were grouped according to the content of the photograph, focusing on land form and the presence of water. The second sort showed that the items were grouped according to memories and sense experiences other than just the visual information presented in the photographs. The results showed that the participants conceptualise photographs differently according to whether they are asked to evaluate the photograph or the place represented by the photograph.
