    1 RAILS BY THE SEA 2 RAILS BY THE SEA In what ways was the development of the seaside miniature railway influenced by the seaside spectacle and individual endeavour from 1900 until the present day? Dr. Marcus George Rooks, BDS (U. Wales). Primary FDSRCS(Eng) MA By Research and Independent Study. University of York Department of History September 2012 3 Abstract Little academic research has been undertaken concerning Seaside Miniature Railways as they fall outside more traditional subjects such as standard gauge and narrow gauge railway history and development. This dissertation is the first academic study on the subject and draws together aspects of miniature railways, fairground and leisure culture. It examines their history from their inception within the newly developing fairground culture of the United States towards the end of the 19th. century and their subsequent establishment and development within the UK. The development of the seaside and fairground spectacular were the catalysts for the establishment of the SMR in the UK. Their development was largely due to two individuals, W. Bassett-Lowke and Henry Greenly who realized their potential and the need to ally them with a suitable site such as the seaside resort. Without their input there is no doubt that SMRs would not have developed as they did. When they withdrew from the culture subsequent development was firmly in the hands of a number of individual entrepreneurs. Although embedded in the fairground culture they were not totally reliant on it which allowed them to flourish within the seaside resort even though the traditional fairground was in decline.

  • TRIP 7: HOD REET FUR ESHDEL Without Any Doubt, to My Way Of
    TRIP 7: HOD REET FUR ESHDEL Without any doubt, to my way of thinking, Eskdale is the most beautiful valley in the Lake District. This view is corroborated by St. Alfred of Wainwright in his booklet ‘Walks from Ratty’ (7) where he says: “Eskdale, one of the loveliest of Lakeland’s valleys, descends from the highest and wildest mountains in the district to the sands of Ravenglass in a swift transition from grandeur to beauty, from bleak and craggy ridges to verdant woodlands and pastures watered by a charming river. It is a place of many delights, the finest of all valleys for those whose special joy is to travel on foot and a paradise for artists. Unspoilt by commercial and industrial activity, it remains today little changed since the first settlers discovered and cultivated with loving care this perfect Arcadia in the hills.” (p.3) I bow to the master. This, I believe, was written in 1978 and is still true today. My only quibble with the great man is that I find the upper reaches of Eskdale just as beautiful as the ‘verdant woodlands and pastures’ (see spots 96 & 97): the ridges may be ‘bleak and craggy’ but what about the waterfalls, the rivers, the Great Moss and the shapes of the mountain-tops which speak of beauty as well as grandeur? Photo 1214: Map of Eskdale (Crown copyright 2015, Ordnance Survey FL-GV 166842) Some will object that there are no lakes in Eskdale. True, but there are two very large tarns and many smaller ones that I personally find more beautiful than the great expanses of, say, Windermere, Bassenthwaite Lake and Coniston Water.

  • STEAM & ROLL BACK the YEARS Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway
    STEAM & ROLL BACK THE YEARS Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway Press Pack 2013 Steamroll Back The Years With A Little La’al Ratty Magic In 2013 Passengers of all ages who buy a ticket to board a Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway narrow gauge steam train in 2013 will be rolling back the years and experiencing the magic of steam, coupled with the retro feel-good factor that comes from having days out the way they used to be. An exciting and full day out can be enjoyed with the Lake District’s longest-established narrow gauge steam railway, (established since 1875 and colloquially known as La’al Ratty or The Ratty), which also offers the longest steam journey available in The Lakes. Fourteen miles of twists and turns and rises and falls in the track make this a fabulous and value-for-money return trip to take from the Lake District coast, to a location nestled in the shadow of its highest mountains, including towering Scafell. During the 40-minute journey, there is much to spot and see to satisfy keen eyes and minds, whether that is a geographical feature such as imposing Muncaster Fell, a red squirrel playing in the trees, or quiz trail clues hidden beside the track. The terrain moves from coastal estuary, to fell landscapes and from lush and hidden valley bottoms, to glimpses of the serpent-like River Esk – a dream for photographers. A day out can also be enjoyed with train travel as the only transportation method, if budget-conscious or environmentally-friendly families wish to save on petrol and emissions and take advantage of Northern Rail services, which connect with Ravenglass.

Cumbria High Fells Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
