LCA Introduction
The Hambleton and Howardian Hills CAN DO (Cultural and Natural Development Opportunity) Partnership The CAN DO Partnership is based around a common vision and shared aims to develop: An area of landscape, cultural heritage and biodiversity excellence benefiting the economic and social well-being of the communities who live within it. The organisations and agencies which make up the partnership have defined a geographical area which covers the south-west corner of the North York Moors National Park and the northern part of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The individual organisations recognise that by working together resources can be used more effectively, achieving greater value overall. The agencies involved in the CAN DO Partnership are – the North York Moors National Park Authority, the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, English Heritage, Natural England, Forestry Commission, Environment Agency, Framework for Change, Government Office for Yorkshire and the Humber, Ryedale District Council and Hambleton District Council. The area was selected because of its natural and cultural heritage diversity which includes the highest concentration of ancient woodland in the region, a nationally important concentration of veteran trees, a range of other semi-natural habitats including some of the most biologically rich sites on Jurassic Limestone in the county, designed landscapes, nationally important ecclesiastical sites and a significant concentration of archaeological remains from the Neolithic to modern times. However, the area has experienced the loss of many landscape character features over the last fifty years including the conversion of land from moorland to arable and the extensive planting of conifers on ancient woodland sites. -

Malcolm Saville and North Yorkshire Stephen Bigger, 2011
Malcolm Saville and North Yorkshire Stephen Bigger, 2011 Fictitious Spaunton near Goathland (in Mystery Mine) is named after the village of Spaunton near Kirkbymoorside. © Stephen Bigger 2011 1 Preface Most of my papers on Malcolm Saville start life in the magazine of the Malcolm Saville Society, Acksherley! and assume that readers have some knowledge of the books discussed. (Acksherley! was a Lone Pine catch-phrase). For on-line readers, here is some background. Malcolm Saville wrote for children between 1943 and 1982, the year of his death. Saville was not a full-time writer, but worked full-time for various publishers. His average of 6 or 7 books per year during his working life is remarkable. He encouraged his young readers to write to him and he endeavoured to give them personal responses. The effect of this is that a society has grown up as these children, as adults, come together for regular gatherings and outings. I personally did not read much Saville as a child – only Saucers over the Moor as a 14 year old – and neither wrote or received a reply, so my interest is somewhat out of the ordinary. I write as a social historian, and examine the background of stories to shed a window of light on life in the 1940s to 1960s, the time I grew up. The stories consist of holiday-time adventures: his best-known series is of the Lone Pine Club, consisting to 20 full-length stories. The paper below discusses his 1959 Lone Pine title, Mystery Mine, set near Goathland and Whitby. -

Appleton Le Moors, Lastingham & Spaunton Parish Report 2013
Appleton le Moors, Lastingham & Spaunton Parish Report 2013 Background You may remember the Government’s ‘Vital Villages’ initiative that funded research into the needs of rural communities. As a consequence of that programme “Parish Plans” were produced by Appleton le Moors in 2004 and Lastingham in 2005. Rural Action Yorkshire suggested we update the plans and combine our efforts because three villages (including Spaunton) would have greater potential to influence the decision makers and obtain funding for projects in the future. Another important benefit will be to provide feedback which informs our local volunteers on the Parish Council and at Parish Meetings. There has not been a grant this time but Ryedale District Council provided administrative support and we have been supported by Margaret Farey of Rural Action Yorkshire. We are grateful for their contributions. Method The 2013 Parish Report was produced by Janet Hayton (Appleton le Moors), Sir Michael Carlisle (Lastingham) and John Cawley (Spaunton). The group informally consulted community and local voluntary networks before compiling the questionnaire which was largely based on previous questionnaires. It was then circulated by hand to each household. There were also options to complete the questionnaire on-line through the RDC website or via the Appleton le Moors website. RDC collated and input your responses, including transcribing the comments. They also produced the graphs and the final format of the report. 80 questionnaires were returned and many of you took the time to write in more detail about particular issues and offered your ideas. The 2013 Parish Report consolidates your responses and summarises the results as “Potential Areas for Improvements”. -

It seeks the origin ofthe parish system in the 7th century with the establishment of monasteria in accordance with the theory, the 'minster' hypothesis, that these were the minsters of the Middle Ages and the ancient parish churches of today. The territory of the monasterium, its parochia, was that of the secular royal vill, because kings granted these lands with the intention that monasteries provided pastoral care to the royal vill. -
