Banksgate Farm North Stainmore | Kirkby Stephen Banksgate Farm North Stainmore | Kirkby Stephen Banksgate Farm An idyllic 58 acre Pennine fellside farm with magnificent panoramic valley and fell views Banksgate Farm is a 58 acre hill livestock farm with five bedroom farmhouse located at North Stainmore in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The farm is synonymous with the current owners’ success in breeding a Championship winning herd of Fell Ponies. The farm is on an elevated site with incredible far reaching panoramic views of the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales. The 58 acres of land, divided into seven fields enclosed by traditional stone walls, is made up of 22.68 acres of allotment, 12 acres of meadow land and 22.23 acres of pasture (some of which is also mowable). The position and accessibility of the farm is second to none yet at the same time it retains a remote and secluded nature which is so much part of a traditional hill farm. The south facing detached farmhouse is built of sandstone under a new Burlington slate roof and sits within a further acre of amenity land. It has been extended and sympathetically modernised in recent years. The spacious, light filled accommodation includes a traditional farmhouse kitchen, two reception rooms and five bedrooms. The house has south facing garden areas to the front and to the side and rear a farmyard and large stone faced traditional farm building measuring 30.4m by 11.4m under a sound recently replaced cement fibre roof providing ample storage and livestock housing. To the rear of this building is a timber framed corrugated iron roof and cladding lean-to measuring 27.4m by 9.3m. There are a further two outlying buildings which serve the property. Banksgate Farm is well placed just off the A66 offering easy access to the Yorkshire Dales, Lake District, Scotch Corner and the M6.

  • Roman Roads in Britain
    THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES !' m ... 0'<.;v.' •cv^ '. V'- / / ^ .^ /- \^ ; EARLY BRITAIN. ROMAN ROADS IN BRITAIN BY THOMAS CODRINGTON M. INST. C.E., F.G.S. WITH LARGE CHART OF THE ROMAN ROADS, AND SMALL MAPS LY THE TEXT SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE, LONDON: NORTHUMBERLAND AVENUE, W.C. 43, QUEEN VICTORIA STREET, E.G. ErIGHTON ; 129, NORTH STREET. 1903 PUBLISHED UNDEK THE DIRECTION OF THE GENERAL LITERATURE COMAHTTEE. DA CsHr PREFACE The following attempt to describe the Roman roads of Britain originated in observations made in all parts of the country as opportunities presented themselves to me from time to time. On turning to other sources of information, the curious fact appeared that for a century past the literature of the subject has been widely influenced by the spurious Itinerary attributed to Richard of Ciren- cester. Though that was long ago shown to be a forgery, statements derived from it, and suppositions founded upon them, are continually repeated, casting suspicion sometimes undeserved on accounts which prove to be otherwise accurate. A wide publicity, and some semblance of authority, have been given to imaginary roads and stations by the new Ordnance maps. Those who early in the last century, under the influence of the new Itinerary, traced the Roman roads, unfortunately left but scanty accounts of the remains which came under their notice, many of which have since been destroyed or covered up in the making of modern roads ; and with the evidence now avail- able few Roman roads can be traced continuously. The gaps can often be filled with reasonable cer- tainty, but more often the precise course is doubtful, and the entire course of some roads connecting known stations of the Itinerary of Antonine can IV PREFACE only be guessed at.

  • The Coach Operators Guide
    THE COACH OPERATORS GUIDE GROUP TRAVEL ON THE SETTLE - CARLISLE RAILWAY WELCOME TO THE SETTLE & CARLISLE RAILWAY Explore one of the world’s greatest railway journeys... This world-famous railway line carves its way through some of the Yorkshire Dales’ most dramatic scenery and the remote fells of Westmorland. The hard climbing done; it then passes through Cumbria’s verdant Eden Valley before arriving at the historic border city of Carlisle. The Settle to Carlisle railway has become etched in history as the line they tried to close– but failed. More than 25 years ago, it came perilously close to being shut forever but, at the last moment, was reprieved. Since then, it has gone from strength to strength and is loved for its sense of history and the impossibly dramatic setting. From Leeds, the line passes through West Yorkshire to Skipton where the Yorkshire Dales begin. Settle is the gateway to the spectacular Three Peaks area (Pen-y-Ghent, Ingleborough and Whernside), in the heart of which sits the Ribblehead viaduct. A testament to Victorian engineering and the tenacity of the men who built it, the structure needs to be viewed in its position to be believed. The climb continues to the line’s highest point at Ais Gill, giving an awe-inspiring vista of Dentdale along the way. The craggy sides of Mallerstang signal the start of the descent into Cumbria’s Eden Valley. Isolated farms and waterfalls pepper the valley sides, and, by Kirkby Stephen, the landscape has become increasingly lush and verdant. At Appleby, red sandstone buildings surround a medieval castle in this pretty market town with beautiful riverside walks.

  • The Archaeology of Castle Slighting in the Middle Ages
    The Archaeology of Castle Slighting in the Middle Ages Submitted by Richard Nevell, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Archaeology in October 2017. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ……………………………………………………………………………… Abstract Medieval castle slighting is the phenomenon in which a high-status fortification is demolished in a time of conflict. At its heart are issues about symbolism, the role of castles in medieval society, and the politics of power. Although examples can be found throughout the Middle Ages (1066–1500) in England, Wales and Scotland there has been no systematic study of the archaeology of castle slighting. Understanding castle slighting enhances our view of medieval society and how it responded to power struggles. This study interrogates the archaeological record to establish the nature of castle slighting: establishing how prevalent it was chronologically and geographically; which parts of castles were most likely to be slighted and why this is significant; the effects on the immediate landscape; and the wider role of destruction in medieval society. The contribution of archaeology is especially important as contemporary records give little information about this phenomenon. Using information recovered from excavation and survey allows this thesis to challenge existing narratives about slighting, especially with reference to the civil war between Stephen and Matilda (1139–1154) and the view that slighting was primarily to prevent an enemy from using a fortification.

J. Johnstone, P. Richardson, A. Birtles, D. Thornton, M. Walker, J. Sowerby. KSTC. Cllr. P. Dew. CCC. Cllr. V. Kendall EDC and 11 members of the public. Participation of Public A member of the public commented that they had been unable to find a copy of the final local plan on Eden District council’s website. It was understood that the local plan has not yet been ratified by the council and this was possibly an explanation. A representative of the Stainmore Railway Company attended the meeting on behalf of the board and spoke to a prepared written statement (appended) objecting to the proposed development on the track bed at Waitby Crossing (E/16/8/PIP YDNP). The App. 1 opinion of the Stainmore Railway Company Board was to oppose the development and the company sought the council's support in that stance. The benefits of the Stainmore Railway Project were said to be: 1. The protection of a heritage asset 2. Helping to bring people to the Dales and Upper Eden Valley 3. Providing a real visitor benefit 4. Helping to grow the local economy Participation of District Councillor Valerie Kendall Cllr Kendal expressed her concern about the proposed development at Whaitby crossing. Cllr Kendall was following with interest the consultation taking place about parking restrictions on South Road.
