  • North East Inheritance
    North East Inheritance Exhibition Catalogue 21 September – 16 October 2009 Palace Green Library 1 The North East Inheritance Project Durham University Library today holds some 150,000 probate records of 75,000 individuals from County Durham and Northumberland - the old Durham diocese - who lived between the early 16th century and the mid-19th century. With the support of the Heritage Lottery Fund, English Record Collections, Durham University and the Genealogical Society of Utah the North East Inheritance project has catalogued and digitally photographed the Durham diocese probate collection (1526- 1858). The collection will be made freely available online in 2010. Probate is the process of proving a will and of administering the estate of a deceased person. This process is today overseen nationally by the civil courts, but before 1858 probate business in England and Wales was administered in the main by ecclesiastical courts in a system of provincial, diocesan and special jurisdictions. In the natural course of several hundred years of this work substantial probate record collections have accumulated in various registries and archives. Making the Durham records available online and for free now offers to historians and genealogists an unsurpassed opportunity for study and discovery. This exhibition offers a selection of probate records from the Durham collection. These have been chosen to illustrate both the probate process and various typical document types, and also to illustrate a number of research topics for which probate records can provide important evidence. The plan of the exhibition topics is as follows. 1 Introduction p.3 2 Family History p.5 3 Local History p.9 4 Academic Use of Probate p.13 5 Death, Dying and Disposal p.17 6 Health and Medicine p.20 7 Plague p.23 8 The Wreck of the Palermo p.26 9 Trade and Industry p.28 10 Literacy and Education p.31 11 Enemies, Foreign and Domestic p.33 12 Northeasterners Abroad p.36 Will of Peter Trumbel of Gateshead, butcher.

    Changing patterns of visitor numbers within the New Forest National Park, with particular reference to the New Forest SPA Joanna Sharp, James Lowen and Durwyn Liley 1 Changing patterns of visitor numbers within the New Forest National Park Version: FINAL Date: 7th November 2008 New Forest National Park Authority, New Forest District Council, Natural England & Forestry Commission Recommended citation: Sharp, J., Lowen, J.& Liley, D. (2008). Changing patterns of visitor numbers within the New Forest National Park, with particular reference to the New Forest SPA. Unpublished report, Footprint Ecology. © Footprint Ecology Ltd. Cover photographs: nightjar and people photographs by D. Liley, © Footprint Ecology, and Woodlark © James Lowen. 2 Changing patterns of visitor numbers within the New Forest National Park Summary The cumulative impact of development is now increasingly recognised as a problem for a number of sites important for nature conservation. In particular, there is strong evidence to show that high numbers of housing in the vicinity of European Protected heathland sites leads to particular pressures, such as disturbance to breeding birds. In areas such as the Dorset Heaths and Thames Basin Heaths, various measures have been put in place to ensure that there will be no adverse effects on the European Sites as a result of new housing, these measures include development control, access management measures on the sites themselves and the creation of alternative green space sites. These solutions are appropriate where the recreational pressure comes from local people, visiting regularly for activities such as dog walking and exercise. The New Forest is a unique area of enormous conservation importance.

  • Site Improvement Plan Harbottle Moors
    Improvement Programme for England's Natura 2000 Sites (IPENS) Planning for the Future Site Improvement Plan Harbottle Moors Site Improvement Plans (SIPs) have been developed for each Natura 2000 site in England as part of the Improvement Programme for England's Natura 2000 sites (IPENS). Natura 2000 sites is the combined term for sites designated as Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) and Special Protected Areas (SPA). This work has been financially supported by LIFE, a financial instrument of the European Community. The plan provides a high level overview of the issues (both current and predicted) affecting the condition of the Natura 2000 features on the site(s) and outlines the priority measures required to improve the condition of the features. It does not cover issues where remedial actions are already in place or ongoing management activities which are required for maintenance. The SIP consists of three parts: a Summary table, which sets out the priority Issues and Measures; a detailed Actions table, which sets out who needs to do what, when and how much it is estimated to cost; and a set of tables containing contextual information and links. Once this current programme ends, it is anticipated that Natural England and others, working with landowners and managers, will all play a role in delivering the priority measures to improve the condition of the features on these sites. The SIPs are based on Natural England's current evidence and knowledge. The SIPs are not legal documents, they are live documents that will be updated to reflect changes in our evidence/knowledge and as actions get underway.
