  • Parish of Skipton*

    Parish of Skipton*

    294 HISTORY OF CRAVEN. PARISH OF SKIPTON* HAVE reserved for this parish, the most interesting part of my subject, a place in Wharfdale, in order to deduce the honour and fee of Skipton from Bolton, to which it originally belonged. In the later Saxon times Bodeltone, or Botltunef (the town of the principal mansion), was the property of Earl Edwin, whose large possessions in the North were among the last estates in the kingdom which, after the Conquest, were permitted to remain in the hands of their former owners. This nobleman was son of Leofwine, and brother of Leofric, Earls of Mercia.J It is somewhat remarkable that after the forfeiture the posterity of this family, in the second generation, became possessed of these estates again by the marriage of William de Meschines with Cecilia de Romille. This will be proved by the following table:— •——————————;——————————iLeofwine Earl of Mercia§=j=......... Leofric §=Godiva Norman. Edwin, the Edwinus Comes of Ermenilda=Ricardus de Abrineis cognom.

But it was before the Domesday Survey that this nobleman had incurred the forfeiture; and his lands in Craven are accordingly surveyed under the head of TERRA REGIS. All these, consisting of LXXVII carucates, lay waste, having never recovered from the Danish ravages. Of these-— [* The parish is situated partly in the wapontake of Staincliffe and partly in Claro, and comprises the townships of Skipton, Barden, Beamsley, Bolton Abbey, Draughton, Embsay-with-Eastby, Haltoneast-with-Bolton, and Hazlewood- with-Storithes ; and contains an area of 24,7893.

    Upper Wharfedale

    UPPER WHARFEDALE. BEING A COMPLETE ACCOUNT OF THE HISTORY, ANTIQUITIES AND SCENERY OF THE PICTURESQUE VALLEY OF THE WHARFE, FROM OTLEY TO LANGSTROTHDALE. BY HARRY SPEIGHT, AUTHOR OF " ROMANTIC RICHMONDSHIRE " " NIDDERDALE AND THE GARDEN OF THE NIDD " , " CRAVEN AND NORTH-WEST YORKSHIRE HIGHLANDS, " ETC. ILLUSTRATED. LONDON: ELLIOT STOCK, 62, PATERNOSTER ROW, E.C. 1900. Entered at Stationers' Hall. PREFACE. HE present treatise on Upper Wharfedale is offered in continuation of the series of my published volumes on the history, antiquities and scenery of the Yorkshire Dales . The work, I must own, makes no pretence to literary excellence, nor is absolute accuracy in all details guaranteed, yet I humbly claim it to be the fullest and I hope the most reliable survey of the district embraced now extant. While much of a general and descriptive character has been written on this exceedingly popular and picturesque valley, it must be noted that with the exception of such records as are contained in the History of Craven by Dr. Whitaker, first published in 18o5, no attempt has hitherto been made to deal succinctly and adequately with the varied concerns of its extensive parishes in what may be considered the spirit of modern topographical enquiry. Dr. Whitaker, followed by his able editor, Mr. A. W. Morant, F.S.A ., will always be honored for the great value of his original researches, which however principally concern manorial history and the titles and lineage of the great lords who had either by inheritance or purchase a possessory right in the soil . His work, moreover, embracing the whole of the ancient and extensive Deanery of Craven is a bulky and costly volume.

These are East areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good Yorkshire decision-making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West 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 landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change.

In Yorkshire the number of entries on our HRegister has fallen again, from 704 to 640, largely through continued progress in rescuing scheduled monuments. But rising repair costs and slow growth in property values have widened the funding gap for many of our buildings at risk. Textile mills are a prime example. The nine on the Register are the tip of the iceberg and a real challenge. But across the region our empty and underused mills, over 1,000 buildings, represent a vast opportunity for our economy. We believe that 150,000 jobs or 27,000 homes could be created if they were in full use. Our recent report Engines of Prosperity: new uses for old mills highlights best practice and creative ways that these iconic sites can be put back to work.
