Each valley or ‘dale’ has its own distinct character, set against expansive heather moorland tops. Stone-built villages sit among traditional farming landscapes of field barns, drystone walls and flower-rich hay meadows. Spectacular waterfalls and ancient broad-leaf woodland contrast with the scaered remains of former mine workings and other rural industries, which remind us of the area’s rich industrial heritage. Together, nature and people have created a special landscape of immense beauty and character to which artists are drawn for inspiration Conistone Bridge John White For more information, visit www.yorkshiredales.org.uk DALES 6 1 CAROLINE DUNN 2 MICHAEL KUSZ Caroline makes wall hangings, framed pieces, and Michael creates sculptures from recycled materials, artists’ books, using dyed and printed silk, appliqued mainly copper.

  • 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.

  • Implementation
    CHAPTER 15 - IMPLEMENTATION CHAPTER 15 IMPLEMENTATION 15.1 The policies and proposals contained in the Local Plan must be realistic and capable of being implemented within the plan period to 2006. The effectiveness of implementation depends on the buoyancy of the local economy; the resources available to those bodies active in Harrogate District and their commitment to achievement of the Local Plan’s objectives. 15.2 This chapter considers the bodies involved in the implementation of the Local Plan and the resources they have available for putting the plan into action. It goes on to put forward specific policies to assist in the work. THE PRIVATE SECTOR 15.3 Private individuals - This group includes owner occupiers, small traders and private landlords and landowners. Taken individually, decisions made by this group tend to be small in scale. However, when considered collectively, decisions made by private individuals can markedly influence the overall economy and environment of the plan area. 15.4 Private firms - This group ranges from large industrialists and developers who can significantly affect the appearance and function of an area with a single scheme to smaller firms whose combined activities are likely to have the greatest effect on the District’s social, economic and environmental well-being. THE PUBLIC SECTOR 15.5 Harrogate Borough Council - As the local planning authority, the Council has wide ranging powers to regulate development. Most of the policies in this Local Plan will be implemented through the Council’s use of these development control powers. The Council is also a significant landowner and investor due to the many services it provides.

  • Coin from Burgage Plot at Burton-In-Lonsdale C.T.J
    Coin from Burgage Plot at Burton-in-Lonsdale C.T.J. Dodson and A. Ross The above coin was found during the spring of 2003 in field 0734, owned by A. Ross of Bull Farm House. It is copper, 2cm in diameter badly pitted on the reverse and identified by Dr A.J. White as a Scottish bawbee (sixpence) or more likely a turner or bodle (twopence). Such coins appear from the 17th century from James I/VI through to William and Mary. Just to add to the information, we have collected some details concerning the field in which it was found, it being one of two surviving burgage plots at Burton. Burgage plots at Burton Grenville defines a burgage plot as a long narrow plot of land running at right angles from the street frontage in a town (Ref [1] p198). Two fields of such characteristically long rectangular shape, perpendicular to High Street, are still clearly visible, both bounded to the north by the beck at the foot of Breastfield Hill. One is to the north of The Manor House/The Cross (originally a single building believed to be that referred to as the Earl of Derby’s Courthouse at the beginning of the 17th century cf. [2], [3], [15]) and the other to the north of Bull Farm House. These are, respectively, field 0734 (about 30 metres wide, area 1 acre) in which the coin was found, and field 0934 (about 18 metres wide, area 2/3 acre), as shown on the 1:25000 OS SD67 map and the current Conservation Area map.

Further work of compilation, analysis, comparison and contrast with other areas is needed to supplement this narra­ tive and to interpret the material in a wider context. This interim cameo can serve as a contribution to the larger picture. QUAKERS IN THIRSK MONTHLY MEETING 1650-75 The present study investigates the area around Thirsk in Yorkshire and finds evidence that gives a slightly different emphasis from that of Davies. Membership of the local community is apparent, but, because the evidence comes from the account of the sufferings of Friends following their persecution John Woods for holding meetings for worship in their own homes, when forbidden to meet in towns, it shows that the sustained attempt in this area during the decade to prevent worship outside the Established Church did not prevent the Malton,North Yorkshire,England 1660-70 holding of Quaker Meetings for worship in the area.

  • Memories of Colne
    MEMORIES OF COLNE By Mrs. Cryer, of Burnley (Formerly Miss Margaret Jane Ward, of Colne) in Collaboration with Mr. Willie Bell, of Burnley (Formerly of Colne) Reprinted from the “Colne and Nelson Times” March to August 1910 (Scanned with optical character recognition and reformatted by Craig Thornber, January 1998) -1- Introduction In 1910, Mrs. Cryer produced a series of articles for the “Colne and Nelson Times”, recalling her memories of Colne in the 1850’s. She had a remarkable memory and recounted the names and details of most of the town’s shop-keepers and their families. The book is a treasure trove for all those with family history interests in Colne in the middle of last century. To my delight, at the end of Chapter IV, I found mention of Miss Margaret Cragg, the sister of my great great grandfather. The book based on Mrs. Cryer’s articles is now very rare, so the opportunity has been taken to reproduce it. This version has been produced from a photocopy of the book by computer scanning, using an optical character recognition programme. Computer scanning is never completely accurate, particularly with punctuation marks, and when working from a document with low contrast. While the final version has been subjected to proof reading and computer based spelling checks, a few errors may remain, for which I am responsible. Many of the sentences and paragraphs are very long and the division into chapters is somewhat arbitrary, but the book has been reproduced as written. The numbering of chapter XIII has been corrected and a few changes have been made to the format for reasons of clarity.
