  • The North Pennines
    LANDSCAPE CHARACTER THE NORTH PENNINES The North Pennines The North Pennines The North Pennines Countryside Character Area County Boundary Key characteristics • An upland landscape of high moorland ridges and plateaux divided by broad pastoral dales. • Alternating strata of Carboniferous limestones, sandstones and shales give the topography a stepped, horizontal grain. • Millstone Grits cap the higher fells and form distinctive flat-topped summits. Hard igneous dolerites of the Great Whin Sill form dramatic outcrops and waterfalls. • Broad ridges of heather moorland and acidic grassland and higher summits and plateaux of blanket bog are grazed by hardy upland sheep. • Pastures and hay meadows in the dales are bounded by dry stone walls, which give way to hedgerows in the lower dale. • Tree cover is sparse in the upper and middle dale. Hedgerow and field trees and tree-lined watercourses are common in the lower dale. • Woodland cover is low. Upland ash and oak-birch woods are found in river gorges and dale side gills, and larger conifer plantations in the moorland fringes. • The settled dales contain small villages and scattered farms. Buildings have a strong vernacular character and are built of local stone with roofs of stone flag or slate. • The landscape is scarred in places by mineral workings with many active and abandoned limestone and whinstone quarries and the relics of widespread lead workings. • An open landscape, broad in scale, with panoramic views from higher ground to distant ridges and summits. • The landscape of the moors is remote, natural and elemental with few man made features and a near wilderness quality in places.

  • Historical Journey Along the River Tees and Its Tributaries
    Historical Journey along the River Tees and its Tributaries Synopsis The document describes a virtual journey along the River Tees beginning at its source; the perspective is as much historical as descriptive of the current scene. Where significant tributaries join the river, they also are tracked back to their start-points. Particular attention is paid to bridges and watermills because of their intimate associations with the rivers, but nearby buildings, both religious and secular are also given attention. Some people have been specially important to developments associated with the river, and brief biographical notes are provided for them. Finally, I would stress that this is very much a personal account dealing with facets of interest to me during the 30 years or so that I spent living and working near the River Tees. Document Navigation I do not provide either a contents list, or an index, but to aid navigation through the document I give here page numbers, on which some places appear first in the text.

  • Walk the Way in a Day Walk 24
    Walk the Way in a Day Walk Baldersdale and Lunedale 24 Reservoirs An enjoyable walk running beside the reservoirs of 1965 - 2015 Baldersdale and Lunedale and crossing a series of moorland ridges. The remote farm where Hannah Hauxwell once lived and a Bronze Age tumulus are passed along the way. The return route follows a railway trail and quiet roads. Length: 13½ miles (21¾ kilometres) Ascent: 1,591 feet (485 metres) Highest Point: 1,427 feet (435 metres) Map(s): OS Explorer OL Map 31 (‘North Pennines - Teesdale & Weardale’) (East Sheet) Starting Point: Hury Reservoir south car park, Baldersdale (NY 967 192) Facilities: Public toilets at the north car park. Website: http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/pennine-way/route/walk- way-day-walk-24-baldersdale-and-lunedale-reservoirs The Reservoirs The starting point is reached by turning off the B6277 at the north end of Cotherstone and heading 3 miles (5 kilometres) up the Baldersdale road. From the car park at the south end of the dam, walk ¾ mile (1 kilometre) along the road until, just before Willoughby Hall farm, iron gates lead to a hardcore track (1 = NY 956 189). Following the track above Hury Reservoir, when it turns onto the dam at the foot of Blackton Reservoir instead join a permissive path running along the south shore.

  • Birk Hat, Baldersdale
    Postgraduate Diploma in Genealogical, Palaeographic and Heraldic Studies University Of Strathclyde Mike Kipling House Étude The Farms at Birk Hat, Baldersdale February 2012 KIPLING.Mike_M3-D4A 02/11/2017 1 1. Introduction There are three farms at Birk Hat(t) in Baldersdale, which is in Romaldkirk parish in the North Riding of Yorkshire (since 1974, County Durham). One of them, Low Birk Hat, came to national prominence in 1973 when its owner, Hannah HAUXWELL, was featured in a Yorkshire Television documentary Too Long a Winter. It showed Hannah running her Pennine farm without assistance, living extremely frugally from a tiny income but yet being serenely content with her lot. Birk Hat is located about 5 miles up Baldersdale at about 1000ft above sea level. The farms of the dale mainly keep cattle in the lower fields and sheep in the higher pastures and moorland. The other two farms are High Birk Hat and West Birk Hat. Birk Hat (Ordnance Survey : Yorkshire 1:10,560 Date: 1856-1857) The farms have a long history. The earliest mention of which I am aware is in the manor rolls of Cotherstone when, in 1526, “John TYNKLER receives one tenement called Byrkhatte 24/- p.a. (fine 5 marks)”.1 An explanation of the name appeared in the Newcastle Journal on 29 November 1856: KIPLING.Mike_M3-D4A 02/11/2017 2 2. The Buildings Today, High Birk Hatt (HBH) is listed grade II and is described as being a farmhouse with barn attached to left and byre to right. It bears the inscription “17 IID 41” on door lintel and has had mid nineteenth century alterations2.

  • County Durham Landscape Character Assessment
    THE COUNTY DURHAM LANDSCAPE CHARACTER ASSESSMENT FOREWORD The landscape of County Durham is one of great contrast and diversity. From the North Pennines in the west to the Durham Coast in the east it contains landscapes of outstanding quality as well as those recovering from the legacies of an industrial past. The landscape is both a natural resource, on which we depend for our food and water, and a cultural resource that evokes feelings, memories, associations and attachments. Its beauty and diversity are important both to the quality of life of local communities and the economic prosperity of the region. The County Durham Landscape Character Assessment classifies and describes the wealth of diversity in the Durham landscape. Together with the County Durham Landscape Strategy and Landscape Guidelines it will be of great service in informing decisions about how we manage the landscape in the future, helping us conserve what we value most about the countryside while accommodating growth and change. I commend this document to all those who have an interest in the Durham landscape, and particularly those involved in planning, development, land management and regeneration work. My thanks to all those who have been involved in its production.
