To help fill the gap the Post Office stepped in and through agreements with the majority of banks allowed customers to carry out day to day banking like cash and cheque deposits and cash withdrawals. That agreement has just been extended for a further three years with more banks coming on board. Unfortunately, one of the big players, Barclays, has pulled out at the last minute, meaning that, as from 8th January 2020, customers will no longer have access to their cash at a Post Office. At present, cash deposits and cheque deposits are not affected. upon them just how much of a major Clearly this will have wide ranging inconvenience to many people, implications for Barclays customers in especially those who live in rural Sedbergh, Dent, Barbon, etc, where communities, this decision really is. facilities to get cash are limited.

  • Mill End Millthrop 1 Sedbergh 1 LA10 5SJ Mill End
    Mill End Millthrop 1 Sedbergh 1 LA10 5SJ Mill End Dating back to the 19th century, Mill End sits along a private driveway within a small community of similar properties at Millthrop, a short distance by car or level walk on foot from Sedbergh. This cleverly converted former mill building offers versatile accommodation across two floors which would suit either the permanent or secondary residence purchaser and provides good views of Winder Fell, part of Wainwright’s beloved Howgill range. Included in the sale are private fishing rights to the River Rawthey, direct access being available from the secluded, riverside garden here at Mill End. Just 5 miles from junction 37 of the M6 and 10 miles from Auld Grey town of Kendal, Sedbergh is well placed in terms of road access to both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales national park. Public transport options are numerous with Oxenholme Main line only 10 miles away. Private and independent schooling for primary and secondary stages are easily accessible and a host of modern day amenities and open air, weekly market are available in Sedbergh, England’s official ‘book town’. Millthrop is on the famous Dales Way, an 80 mile walk from Ilkley to Bowness on Windermere, popular with tourists throughout the year. The accommodation at Mill End is currently set out over two floors with kitchen and bathroom facilities to each level. However, the layout does offer several options for re-working the existing design of the three bedrooms, two spacious bathrooms and two kitchens to suit the purchaser’s individual requirements and to make best use of the available space.

  • S/03/704 Proposal: Full Planning Permission for Erection of 8 No
    Gail Dent From: Judith Eastham REDACTED BY YDNPA Sent: 25 June 2020 21:26 To: Planning Subject: S/03/704 Dear Ms Clowes and Mr R Graham Planning Application Reference: S/03/704 Proposal: Full planning permission for erection of 8 No. dwellings, associated accesses, parking and landscaping. Address: Land opposite Derry Cottages, Millthrop, Sedbergh We are writing regarding the above planning application and wish to bring to your attention recent issues with the drains that have affected Derry Cottages, Millthrop. As you will be aware Derry Cottages is situated opposite the land for the proposed development of 8 dwellings. In our previous correspondence of 20 May 2020, we raised a question over sewage disposal as the proposed plans are non-committal as to which method will be used; our concern being that the existing sewage disposal system in the hamlet will be unable to cope with a further 8 properties. Our property, No. 1 The Derry had significant problems with the sewerage on 16 June 2020, as well as the properties at No.3 on 3 and 4 June 2020 and No.4 on 15 June 2020. The property at No.2 is presently unoccupied. It is these issues that we wish to bring to your attention as it further highlights the concerns that we raised on 20 May 2020. We have been unable to identify the cause of these blockages, but we have identified what appears to be a collapsed drain at the entrance to Blandses farm, which, we believe may be causing the problem as we did retrieve stones and debris from the blockage.

  • The Dales Way Guided Trail
    The Dales Way Guided Trail Tour Style: Guided Trails Destinations: Yorkshire Dales & England Trip code: MDLDD Trip Walking Grade: 4 HOLIDAY OVERVIEW The Dales Way was one of the earliest "unofficial" long distance routes. For most of its 79 miles it shuns the craggy tops and summit ridges to keep to the valley bottoms. It is, in essence, a riverside route linking existing rights of way to cross the Yorkshire Dales in a south-east to north-west direction. It connects the urban fringe of Ilkley to the shores of Windermere by way of Wharfedale, Dentdale and Eastern Lakeland. Wildlife is rich and varied: rivers provide habitat for a wide range of birds and the Wharfe is noted for its trout, often seen leaping out of the water on summer days. WHAT'S INCLUDED • High quality en-suite accommodation in our country house • Full board from dinner upon arrival to breakfast on departure day • The services of an HF Holidays' walks leader • All transport on walking days www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 1 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 HOLIDAYS HIGHLIGHTS • The complete Dales Way from Ilkley to Bowness • Meander through beautiful Yorkshire Dales scenery • Stay at Newfield Hall, Malhamdale TRIP SUITABILITY This Guided Walking/Hiking Trail is graded 4 which involves walks /hikes over long distances in remote countryside and rough terrain.

  • Yorkshire Weekender
    The Dales Way Association. PO Box 1065, Bradford, BD1 9JY. [email protected] www.dalesway.org.uk Newsletter Number 40 Autumn 2011 Editorial It has always been one of the aims of the Dales Way Association to eliminate road-walking as far as possible from the route of the Dales Way. One short section of minor, but busy road has exercised our minds for many years, the stretch from Sprint Bridge to Hall Lane, which leads into Burneside. The obvious solution would be a footpath over the wall on the south side of the road and parallel to it. In 2006 an attempt was made to create such a footpath, but nothing came of it. In 2010 Cumbria County Council started another initiative, but again, fifteen months later, no progress had been made. In August of this year the Association requested the help of Chris Holland, South Lakeland District Councillor. He responded within 48 hours and progress since then has been rapid. The land is owned by the Cropper Estate (Croppers also own the paper mill in Burneside). Chris has already had a meeting with Mr Cropper, who is sympathetic to our request, but he has not yet spoken to the tenant farmer at Burneside Hall, whose agreement would also be necessary. Chris and committee member Donald Holland have walked the proposed path in order to assess the cost of the gates and stiles required. The Dales Way Association has agreed to contribute to these costs and we thank Chris for his help and enthusiasm in moving to solve a 40 year old problem.
