Six settlements are reviewed and comprise: § Boston Spa § Bramham § Collingham § Bardsey-cum-Rigton § Barwick-in-Elmet § Scholes 1.2 Baseline data on historic development and the identification of designated heritage assets has been informed by reference to the following sources: § The National Heritage List for England (NHLE) § The National Record for the Historic Environment/National Monuments Record (NRHE/NMR) § The Heritage Gateway online resource § The West Yorkshire Historic Landscape Characterisation Project - West Yorkshire Archaeology Advisory Service (January 2017) § Leeds City Council Conservation Area Appraisals and Management Plans § Historic Ordnance Survey (OS) mapping record 1.3 The summaries provided below are essentially ‘snap-shot’ overviews of historic settlement morphology and principal designated heritage assets that may be affected by future development proposals. It identifies areas to the urban fringes of the study settlements where potentially significant effects upon the historic environment are anticipated, for example where development would impact upon significant or positive elements within the setting of a heritage asset or where development would lead to the coalescence of historic settlements. It is intended as an initial broad baseline to inform more detailed site-specific 1 HISTORIC SETTLEMENT STUDY LEEDS OUTER NORTH EAST AUGUST 2017 studies for each settlement. The archaeological potential of land falling within the setting of the study areas is not considered in detail within this report. 1.4 The Study report is intended to inform future representations by the Outer North East Consortium with regard to the Leeds City Council Site Allocations Plan Revised Publication Draft Outer North East (May 2017). 1.5 For the six study settlements a sensitivity map has been produced to indicate areas where development may potentially impact upon the significance of one or more heritage assets, including conservation areas and their setting. Where potential development sites fall within these areas further more detailed study is recommended in order to fully understand the nature and extent of impacts upon the built historic environment. This current study does not consider potential site allocations. 1.6 The Assessment set out below is desk-based and undertaken at a high level predominantly focussing upon potential development constraints arising from designated heritage assets. Given this, the assessment and accompanying maps, should not influence the determination of future planning applications within or adjoining the study settlements where more detailed studies will be required. 2 HISTORIC SETTLEMENT STUDY LEEDS OUTER NORTH EAST AUGUST 2017 2.0 SETTLEMENT STUDIES BOSTON SPA Historical Development 2.1 Some evidence of Iron Age and Roman period activity in the area around the existing settlement does exist and Roman Road number 280, now known as Rudgate ran to the east of Boston Spa close to the Roman fort at Newton Kyme. 2.2 Unlike settlement at nearby Clifford and Thorpe Arch, both of which evidence medieval foundation, Boston Spa itself is not of ancient origin and emerged as a spa town during the mid-18th century. Originally known as Boston and falling within Clifford Township the Spa name extension was added during the 19th century. Prior to settlement the land on which the town is now situated formed part of the open field system connected with Clifford. The lanes of Church Street, Clifford Road and Clifford Moor Road mark the edges of the former field system and land between the fields and the River Wharf, known as Oxclose was used as common grazing land. 2.3 The spa was discovered by a farm labourer, John Shires, in 1744. Joseph Taite constructed the first house, the Royal Hotel, for the accommodation of visitors in 1753 and in 1767 a pump was fitted to the spring. Following this people were charged for access to the spa water and the town began to develop as a spa resort. A second hotel, The Terrace, was built in 1788 and during the late 18th and early 19th centuries buildings, both for visitors and residents, were constructed along the High Street. 2.4 Growth continued throughout the 19th century with a mix of villa development and high status terraced rows contrasting with simpler dwellings built for working-class families, many employed as servants to the wealthier families. The latter were constructed in linear strips along lanes leading off the High Street and set away from the grander residences within the village. The 1842 Clifford cum Boston tithe plan and the 1849 OS map (surveyed 1846-47) confirm the predominantly linear form of development along the High Street with development extending along lanes off the main Street, most notably along Church Street (west side) and the northern section of Clifford Street. The majority of development falls to the south of the High Street notable exceptions being the Boston Spa, Spa Lane Baths, St. 3 HISTORIC SETTLEMENT STUDY LEEDS OUTER NORTH EAST AUGUST 2017 Kits House and St. Mary’s Church. The land between the High Street and River retains evidence of the historic field enclosure patterns. 2.5 By the mid-19th century the popularity of the spa town began to decline reflected in the bankruptcy of one of the town’s spa companies. Development did however continue during the latter half of the 19th century with suburban growth stimulated in part by the construction of the Thorp Arch Railway Station in 1848 (the rail line was closed in 1964). This development included additional villa and town house development along with civic development including chapels and Sunday schools. The linear form of settlement continues during this period and is shown on the 1894 OS map and remains largely intact through the early part of the 20th century. 2.6 The 1938 OS map highlights the sub-urban expansion of the settlement and the erosion of the linear patterns of historic development and gradual loss of historic field divisions surrounding the 18th and 19th core. By 1938 residential estate development has taken place around Boston Grove to the south-east of the settlement and smaller pockets of development can be seen to the north side of the Main Street around Lynton Avenue and Pine Tree Avenue. To the south continuing linear development along Clifford Road, in the form of detached and semi-detached plots, is evident. 2.7 The construction of the Thorp Arch munitions factory during World War II in around 1940 provided a further stimulus to growth with incoming factory workers, many of whom were housed in Boston Spa. The West End estate to the north of Boston Lodge and High Street West was constructed during this period, originally as an accommodation camp consisting of pre-fabricated housing. The 1958 OS map also shows estate development within the grounds of Chesnut Grove House, this originally being an RAF camp. The later 20th century saw the rapid expansion with substantial housing development to the west of the settlement and south of the High Street around Clifford Moor Road and north of Primrose Lane. Further development to the east has included estate development around Lonsdale Meadows and River View and more recently the Church Fields development to the north of the High Street. 4 HISTORIC SETTLEMENT STUDY LEEDS OUTER NORTH EAST AUGUST 2017 Principal Heritage Assets 2.8 The majority of designated heritage assets recorded on the National Heritage List for England (NHLE) relate to buildings and structures comprising the linear development of Boston Spa during the 18th and 19th century along the High Street and extending along Bridge Road towards Thorp Arch to the north. These are all listed buildings, Grade II, and include residential and commercial developments along the High Street and 19th century villa development set back from the road and originally in extended grounds. Religious and civic buildings are also listed and include significant landmark or gateway buildings such as the Church of St. Mary the Virgin (list entry number 1299362, Grade II). A number of buildings to the north of the River Wharfe are also notable given visual prominence and landmark qualities. These include buildings and land associated with Thorpe Arch Mill (list entry numbers 13113486 and 1319990, Grade II) and Thorpe Arch Hall (list entry number 1116216, Grade II*). 2.9 The Boston Spa Conservation Area was designated in 1969 and originally extended to take in land and buildings falling within Thorp Arch. The boundaries were reviewed in 2009 and split into two conservation areas following parish boundary lines. The extent of the Boston Spa area was also amended to exclude areas of post-1969 residential development and extended west to include the West End and eastward along the High Street towards the western edge of Firgreen Beck. Coinciding with the review of the conservation area in 2009 the Council published the Boston Spa Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan. 2.10 The Appraisal notes the linear form of settlement, running either side of the A659/High Street and parallel to the River Wharfe. The central point within the historic core is at the junction of High Street with Bridge Road. It notes strip forms of development off the High Street following historic strip field patterns and tracks/footways.

  • Born William and Emma Leonard (Née Dowd)
    Ann Leonard Annie was born in Morley in late 1891. She was the eldest daughter of Leeds- born William and Emma Leonard (née Dowd). The couple married in 1890 and, including Annie, they had 10 children. One child died in infancy but Annie’s other siblings included Edward (1894), Alice (1896), Walter (1897), Agnes (1900), Doris (1902), Ethel (1904), Elsie (1906) and Nellie (1908). All but Annie and Edward were baptised at St Mary’s RC Church, Batley. In the 1891 census William and Emma lived at Springfield Lane, Morley. William was a coal miner. In 1901 the couple had five children and were still living at Morley, but their address had changed to New Park Street. William was now a coal miner deputy. This was the official employed in a supervisory capacity at the pit with responsibility for setting props and general safety matters. By 1906 the family had moved to Batley and the 1911 census gives their address as North Bank Road, Cross Bank. This remained the family address when Annie died. At the time of this census William still worked as a coal miner deputy below ground. 19-year-old Annie, in common with many other local women, had employment in a woollen mill working as a cloth weaver. War changed all this. Within weeks of its outbreak Annie’s eldest brother Edward, a former Batley Grammar School pupil with a talent for art, enlisted with the Leeds Rifles. He went to France in April 1915. Around the time Edward went overseas the “shell scandal” debate raged at home, with the shortage of high explosives being cited as the reason for failure in battles and loss of soldiers’ lives.

Both sides of the family had their roots in the Birmingham area. Presumably his parents met when they were both living in Handsworth and working in a chemist’s company; on their marriage certificate of 1915 his father is described as a despatch clerk and his mother as an assistant. By the time Maurice was born his father had risen to the rank of ‘Departmental Manager in Wholesale Druggists Warehouse’, a position he continued to hold until his early death aged 46 in 1934. Maurice continued to live with his widowed mother in the Sutton Coldfield area and later in Yorkshire until her death in Adel, Leeds, aged 79, in 1966. As the family was of modest financial means, the more so after his father’s death, all of Maurice’s schooling was local to Sutton Coldfield (Boldmere Council Infants, 1925–6: Green Lanes Senior Boys, 1926–30: Bishop Vesey’s Grammar School, 1930–8). At Bishop Vesey’s, as he was later to recount,1 two masters in particular influenced the course of his life; William Roberts, a ‘stimulating history master’ and William Sutton— ‘a terrifying and rigorous geography master who made map reading as natural and interesting as reading a novel or a play’.

  • Our Pullein Ancestors
    OUR PULLEIN ANCESTORS J Brian Hardaker Version dated May 2017 The # numbers are the identification numbers in Our Family Tree on the website Names in bold type are believed to be in my direct ancestral line. Our link to the Pullein family comes through Mary Pullan, the wife of John Hardaker of Idle. Mary was born in Idle in 1786 and died there in 1854. She and John had ten children, among them Samuel Hardaker, father of John Lee Hardaker, my paternal grandfather. We can trace the history of the Pullans because of the vast research effort into the family by Catharine Pullein in her book The Pulleyns of Yorkshire, published in 1915 by J. Whitehead and Son of Leeds (pp. viii + 799). What follows comes mostly from that source.1 The Origin of the Name As is clear from the variants already introduced, there have been many different spellings of the name. While Pullan seems most common these days, we shall soon see that there are reasons to believe that Pullein or Pulleyn would be more correct. After examining a number of other possibilities, Catharine concludes that the name originated in the Crusades. This long series of wars, which occurred intermittently for about 200 years, have some echoes in modern problems in the Middle East. In A.D. 1095 a religious fanatic called Peter the Hermit became fired with holy indignation at insults by Moslems to the Christian pilgrims visiting Jerusalem and at the desecration of sacred places there. He travelled around Europe rousing Christians with stories of the wrongs done.

  • Ilistgrv of Business in Thorqer 1900-2000
    33 1 97499,331 80786, 33201655, 33195054 Ilistgrv of Business in Thorqer 1900-2000 The town of Thomer is an idyllic little town less than ten miles away from Leeds which is steeped in history. First mentioned in the Doomsday book, Thorner has grown slowly, preferring to stay as a small rural community and avoiding the population expansion that seemed to plague lots of smaller towns during and after the Industrial Revolution. It has always been in part a farming community, with other industries making an appearance over time such as cotton, flax and limestone quarrying just to mention a few. However, Thomer was always a relatively self-sufficient town, its inhabitants performing all of the jobs necessary for a town to run effectively with butchers, doctors, shop-keepers and bakers merging with the resident farmers to mean that Thorner was, to a lmge degree, self-sufficient. However, as with all things, as time progressed and as technologies came about and prices for transport fell, the self-suffrciency of Thorner began to wane as more and more people flocked towards the larger population centres. This trend continued until we arrived where we are today, with picturesque towns like Thomer becoming transformed into cornmuter towns for people who wished to live outside the cities, but not so far enough away as to make it unfeasibte for them to travel to these cities to work each day. However, even with the small towns iike Thomer, the issue ofjust what has gone before is one which can sometimes be difficult to address. The history of such towns is at times sparse due to their small nature; however Thorner is unlike many other smaller towns due to T.W Brown's book 'The Making of a Yorkshire Village'.

Many things are the same, working from home, social distancing, zoom meetings, lack of social contact, but we have managed it before and will do it again. Let’s just stay positive. It’s not the situation we want to be in, however, the start of a new year often brings a change of mindset and new focus.

I-IV has occupied the leisure hours of Tthe past five years. Begun on a much more limited scale in response to a· passing remark by the Editor in Volume XXXI, p. 106, it has since been revised, at the request of the Society's Executive Committee, to make it as comprehensive as the limit­ ations of the compiler and the hard economics of publication allow. It is an entirely new index, the fruit of three successive journeys through the Proceedings; not an amalgam of the indexes to the sep­ arate volumes (though it has been carefully checked against many of these in the closing stages of the work). It has also been checked against L. T. Daw's "Skeleton" Index to Volumes I-XVI, which it therefore supersedes. A very large proportion of the references given in the volume indexes are too incidental to be of any value: the unconvinced reader is invited to confirm this the hard way. I have attempted both to exclude incidental references which would merely waste the time and patience of the user, and at the same time to include all references, however incidental, which may at some time be of use.

Most of the houses are built of pale stone, topped with roofs of red tiles - a type of architecture more usually found in North Yorkshire. With its riverside developments and air of prosperity, the Wetherby of today is a favoured place to live. The flat, arable landscape, too, is very different to Pennine Yorkshire. Here, on the fringes of the Vale of York, the soil is rich and dark and productive - the fields divided up by fences and hedgerows rather than dry-stone walls. The town has a long history. A brief glance at an Ordnance Survey map reveals that Wetherby grew up around a tight curve in the River Wharfe. Its importance as a river crossing was recognised by the building of a castle, possibly in the 12th century, of which only the foundations remain. The first mention of a bridge was in 1233. A few years later, in 1240, the Knights Templar were granted a royal charter to hold a market in Wetherby.

  • Lockdown Miscellany', June 2020
    G & K U3A History Group 'LOCKDOWN MISCELLANY', JUNE 2020. During the Coronavirus Lockdown the usual meetings and visits of the History Group were suspended. This Miscellany arose out of Zoom and email exchanges when members were sharing thoughts about local features of interest. Additional relevant information about the topics was found online. Peckfield Colliery Disaster, commemorated in Micklefield churchyard. Lizzie M. ‘I went for a walk where I’d not been before and came across Pit Lane. I got talking to someone about some lovely big old houses along there and was told they were the pit manager’s house and some of the workers’ houses. I asked where the pit used to be and from there Googled the information and found out about the disaster.’ Pat D. ‘Ashley Land is very knowledgeable about the Peckfield disaster. He has maps and history of the men who lost their lives. He was able to show me my Great Grandfather’s statement on retrieving his father’s body from the mine which was very moving.’ The Peckfield pit disaster was a mining accident at the Peckfield Colliery in Micklefield, which occurred on Thursday 30 April 1896, killing 63 men and boys out of 105 who were in the pit, plus 19 out of 23 pit ponies. The disaster is commemorated at Micklefield Church. Peckfield Colliery was owned by Messrs. Joseph Cliff and Sons, with Mr. Joseph Cliff being senior partner of the Micklefield Coal and Lime Company. Mr. Charles Houfton had been the manager since the colliery opened, and Mr. William Radford had been employed as the Under Manager for 17 years.
