Environment and Community Woodlands: Report from Cllr Mary Chapman on the activities of the Environment Group o The last litter pick event on 10.04.2016 was well attended and productive: 23 people collected 65 bags of rubbish. The lunch was much appreciated, and is thought to be a key factor in the increased turnout. The Parish Council was thanked for the financial support towards the cost of the venue and food. o Dog fouling at Mealbank seems to have reduced since the spray was bought. o The group continue to address minor jobs to clear footpaths. o A concern was raised whether the County Countryside Access Team are committed to the signage upkeep/maintenance programme, and also about the lack of a report for the 2015 Scalthwaiterigg rights of way survey. o The next meeting is scheduled for 8 June 2016, to plan the annual Parish walk, visit to Watchgate and the next public rights survey. RESOLVED: To approve financial support for two litter picks events in 2016-17, for food and venue hire. Action 2: The Clerk to raise the two matters of concern (above) in a letter to the KL County Countryside Access Team (cc Cllr Stan Collins). Report from Cllr John Chapman on the Parish Woodlands Everything is doing very well.

A work party is planned for July/August 2016 for tiding-up jobs, e.g. repainting the shed and gate. b. Highways and Transport Report of the CRASH meetings, notes from 08.03.2016 & 14.04.2016 provided. A speed survey will be conducted, the location has been agreed to operate the UKLAP Speed Indication Device (SID) and the Police SID to simultaneously measure the speed of traffic moving in both directions on the Kiln Croft section of the A6. Mr MacLaine’s offer to help set up the device on 6 June is very welcomed. The devices will record the actual speed of traffic, which will provide key information in future safety discussions. The devices are not for law enforcement purposes and will be set-up with ‘boy-racer’ deterrent features. Cllr M Chapman thought the population at Kilncroft should warrant additional safety factors, considering the number of residents ( 35). The next CRASH meeting will discuss the road markings, signage and speed restrictions. Parish sign at Selside Now in place, invoice has not been received yet. No progress has been made with the HGV restriction sign for Scandale Road, as agreed with Cllr Collins, October 2014. Action 3: The Clerk to send a formal letter to CCC Highways (cc Cllr Collins) to ask for this to be actioned asap. Request for a ‘No Through Road’ sign on the A6 to Goodhamscales KL Residents have been successful in having a sign put in place.

  • Westmoreland in the Late Seventeenth Century by Colin Phillips
    WESTMORLAND ABOUT 1670 BY COLIN PHILLIPS Topography and climate This volume prints four documents relating to the hearth tax in Westmorland1. It is important to set these documents in their geographical context. Westmorland, until 1974 was one of England’s ancient counties when it became part of Cumbria. The boundaries are shown on map 1.2 Celia Fiennes’s view in 1698 of ‘…Rich land in the bottoms, as one may call them considering the vast hills above them on all sides…’ was more positive than that of Daniel Defoe who, in 1724, considered Westmorland ‘A country eminent only for being the wildest, most barren and frightful of any that I have passed over in England, or even Wales it self. ’ It was a county of stark topographical contrasts, fringed by long and deep waters of the Lake District, bisected by mountains with high and wild fells. Communications were difficult: Helvellyn, Harter Fell, Shap Fell and the Langdale Fells prevented easy cross-county movement, although there were in the seventeenth century three routes identified with Kirkstone, Shap, and Grayrigg.3 Yet there were more fertile lowland areas and 1 TNA, Exchequer, lay subsidy rolls, E179/195/73, compiled for the Michaelmas 1670 collection, and including Kendal borough. The document was printed as extracts in W. Farrer, Records relating to the barony of Kendale, ed. J. F.

  • 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.

  • PARISH: Kendal Natland Skelsmergh and Scalthwaiterigg Helsington
    PARISH: Kendal Natland Skelsmergh and Scalthwaiterigg Helsington PROPOSAL: Kendal Flood Risk Management Scheme - Phase 1 Kendal Linear Defences, comprising works along the rivers Kent & Mint through Kendal including new & raised flood walls, new & raised flood embankments, ground raising, pumping station & associated changes to the public realm & landscaping APPLICANT: Environment Agency Grid Ref: E: 351837 N: 492771 Committee date: 21 March 2019 SL/2018/0925 Land adjacent to Rivers Mint and Kent extending from adjacent to Lakeland Distribution Centre to Helsington Mills, KENDAL, NATLAND, SKELSMERGH AND SCALTHWAITERIGG, AND HELSINGTON Not to Scale SUMMARY 1. Kendal is currently at risk of flooding from events that can be expected to occur once in every 5 years. The Environment Agency has proposed the Kendal Flood Risk Management Scheme (KFRMS) to reduce that risk to events that can be expected to occur once in every 100 years. KFRMS has been divided into three phases. This application relates to Phase 1, 6km of linear defences, mainly walls and embankments, adjoining both banks of the Rivers Mint and Kent from the Lakeland Distribution Centre in the north of the town to Helsington Mills in the south. Phase 1 in isolation is expected to reduce the risk of flooding for part of the town from events that can be expected to occur once in every 20 years. 2. The application is accompanied by an Environmental Statement (ES) that has assessed the likely impacts of the proposals put forward in Phase 1 across a broad range of receptors. The ES considers the likely impacts from construction and from the longer term operational phase of the development, taking into account extensive proposals for mitigation.
