These were first recognised in 2010 when one was noted as having been dug alongside the prehistoric Cleave Dyke which runs through the plantation. When the area was checked on aerial photographs dating from May 1940, a series of faint marks – previously considered to be possible scratches on the old photo negatives – were recognised as revealing an extensive complex of slit trenches, apparently cut to protect the gliding field just to the south (now home of the Yorkshire Gliding Club) in case of invasion. Further slit trenches were picked up on the south side of the gliding field by the English Heritage survey of Roulston Scar hillfort (which encloses the main part of the gliding field) in 2001, although these were interpreted as defensive positions for firing into the gliding field in case of an enemy landing there. However, the newly discovered examples have clear banks which appear to indicate that they were to provide protection against an attack from the north, although another possibility is that they represent practice works dug to give recruits experience and help make them ready for combat.

Mrs I.C de Wet, 3 Holly Close, Sowerby, Thirsk, YO7 1SH, Tel: 01845 522401. email: [email protected] Minutes of the meeting held on 13th July 2020 at 7.15pm. The meeting was held by telephone as face to face meetings were not currently possible. Present: Cllrs. A. Pollard, B. Edgeworth, C, Worley and County Councillor G. Dadd. Apologies were received from District Councillor A. Robinson who stated that he had nothing to report as there were no meetings at HDC at the moment. He hoped that things would soon get back to normal. NY County Council Report. County Councillor Dadd outlined the Government’s plan and timetable to link devolution deals with the establishment of new unitary councils across England. That would mean ending the current arrangement in North Yorkshire whereby District and Borough councils provide some local services in their local areas and the County Council delivers strategic services like children’s services and education, health and social care, safeguarding and highways across the whole county. It is not yet clear how what a new unitary system for North Yorkshire would look like but Councillor Dadd said it was the only way to secure the many positive benefits of devolution. Government had also stated that a devolution agreement would include the formation of a Combined Authority with an elected Mayor. The timeline was very tight, with bids to be submitted by September this year and those which were successful in this round to be established as early as May 2022 https://www.northyorks.gov.uk/news/article/north-yorkshire-consider-reorganisation-devolution 20.070 The minutes of the telephone Meeting of the Council on June 8th 2020 were approved.
