Please state below Signature of Candidate Type of Award PA tO - r r 1 p School ABSTRACT OF THESIS The project explores the complex and counter-intuitive historical relationships between railways and development through a local study of Accrington and the surrounding smaller towns and townships in East Lancashire. This distinctive, yet little-researched, district formed a compact and self-contained niini-conurbation by 1914 flanked by its larger neighbours Blackburn and Bumley. Accrington itself flinctioned as the transport hub for the sub-region, dominated by cotton, coal, engineering and brick making, and served by the East Lancashire Railway from 1848 to 1859, and then by the successor amalgamated company, the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, until 1922. The important and unusual 1-shaped rail network linked the district to Preston, Liverpool and West Lancashire, Leeds, Bradford and West Yorkshire, and towards the south, Bury and Manchester. The railway companies ran intensive passenger and freight services to connect the thriving industries and towns along the highly-developed trans-Pennine corridor. The Leeds and Liverpool canal, roads and tramways provided specialised services which complemented railways well in a sophisticated "transport-scape". Accrington was a railway town which experienced exponential growth during the mid and late Victorian eras. Its industries became both increasingly diversified and specialised, its economic base was independent yet interdependent as intra-regional and inter-regional trade and business networks grew rapidly, the rail hub organised the structure of urbanisation. Within the sub-region, multiple nuclei of growth emerged suddenly and rapidly without urban precursors during the railway era. There were no significant commuting flows or suburban developments. These striking phenomena cannot be explained by conventional approaches such as metropolitan central-place theory and cliometric counter-factual modelling. W.W. Rostow's "take-off' and F.J.Turner's "frontier" concepts are selectively rehabilitated, re-interpreted and synthesised to build an innovatory framework to describe and explain the observable patterns in East Lancashire. The theoretical synthesis is briefly applied to case-studies from northern England to explore the widely diverse impact of railway investments, and to highlight the potential for an extended comparative research agenda.

Haworth 2 From the Chair As we are aware, the new Northern franchise will commence in early 2016, and the consultation process has begun.The Government has decided to keep the two separate franchises with Trans Pennine Express offering the express services in the region. They are also looking to transfer into the Northern franchise some services operated by another franchise and these include the Oxenhlme – Windermere service. Consultations such as these can be seen as either a challenge or a threat and in our response RVR will use this opportunity to seek for enhancement of services, rolling stock, connectivity and station facilities. The document can be found at: www.gov.uk/government/consultation/future-of-northern-transpennine-express-rail-franchise We have seen changes in staff on the line with John Ryan replacing Stephen Curry as our Station Manager,and we hope to meet him shortly at one of our RVR meetings. I had the pleasure of travelling on the 25th Anniversary Train from Leeds to Carlisle on Friday 11th April to celebrate the saving of the Settle to Carlisle Line. It was a superbly organized event with a packed train enjoying the scenery. Full details later in the magazine.

  • Tour Sheets Final04-05
    Great War Battlefields Study Tour Briefing Notes & Activity Sheets Students Name briefing notes one Introduction The First World War or Great War was a truly terrible conflict. Ignored for many years by schools, the advent of the National Curriculum and the GCSE system reignited interest in the period. Now, thousands of pupils across the United Kingdom study the 1914-18 era and many pupils visit the battlefield sites in Belgium and France. Redevelopment and urban spread are slowly covering up these historic sites. The Mons battlefields disappeared many years ago, very little remains on the Ypres Salient and now even the Somme sites are under the threat of redevelopment. In 25 years time it is difficult to predict how much of what you see over the next few days will remain. The consequences of the Great War are still being felt today, in particular in such trouble spots as the Middle East, Northern Ireland and Bosnia.Many commentators in 1919 believed that the so-called war to end all wars was nothing of the sort and would inevitably lead to another conflict. So it did, in 1939. You will see the impact the war had on a local and personal level. Communities such as Grimsby, Hull, Accrington, Barnsley and Bradford felt the impact of war particularly sharply as their Pals or Chums Battalions were cut to pieces in minutes during the Battle of the Somme. We will be focusing on the impact on an even smaller community, our school. We will do this not so as to glorify war or the part oldmillhillians played in it but so as to use these men’s experiences to connect with events on the Western Front.

  • Primary Care Committee 19
    PRIMARY CARE COMMITTEE 19 September 2016 New model of care consultation report 1. Introduction 1.1. A comprehensive twelve week consultation was undertaken between April and July 2016 on a proposed new model of primary care in East Lancashire. 1.2. The consultation achieved extensive publicity and was widely promoted in the area. 1.3. An online survey was supported with a distribution of 13,000 paper questionnaires and pre-paid envelopes to the 58 GP practices and patient and public interest groups. 1.4. The promotion of the survey was backed up with press and radio coverage, advertising, and the extensive use of social media. 1.5. In addition, a programme of presentations, meetings and face to face engagement was undertaken to enable patients, members of the public and other stakeholders to consider the proposals and respond to the consultation. 1.6. We engaged with patients at 16 drop-in face to face meetings. We were privileged to be able to present our proposals and hear views at over 30 different meetings. We engaged in online discussions on Facebook and Twitter, encouraging comment whilst hopefully maintaining a neutral yet positive stance. 1.7. We were delighted to receive 2,129 responses to the consultation, and within these responses, many detailed comments which we have given consideration to. 1.8. We are truly grateful for the level of engagement and the responses people have given. This report sets out our reflections regarding the feedback and proposes how we will consider further the responses moving forward. 2. Approach 2.1. Prior to more formal engagement with patients and the public, we undertook a period of pre-consultation engagement in March 2016, in Hyndburn, and we briefed our representative Patient Participation Group (PPG) network chairs at a meeting of the Patient Partners Board.

  • Burnley Barracks S
    ’S HISTORICAL COMM HIRE UNI AS TY NC STA LA TI ST ON EA BURNLEY BARRACKS S BURNLEY BARRACKS STATION Burnley Westgate station was built and opened by the East Lancashire Railway Company on the 18th September 1848. It opened as the terminus for the East Lancashire Railway Companies trains from Accrington. The engineers in charge of building the line from Accrington to Burnley and onwards to Colne were Mr J.S. Perring and Mr J.A. Donaldson. The following year with the imposing stone Burnley viaduct completed the Colne extension was opened on 1st February 1849. Burnley Westgate closed on this date and the larger Burnley Barracks Station - photo courtesy LYRS Burnley Bank Top station came into use. The area around the former Burnley Westgate station however developed quickly with housing, mills and a cavalry barracks. The demand for the station to re open was quickly acted on by the railway company and the station re opened in September 1851 with a new name, Burnley Barracks, refl ecting the close proximity of the cavalry barracks. The 1881 census fi gures show that seventy six soldiers were based at the barracks and only three of them were from Burnley so soldiers would travel from far and wide to the barracks using the station. The station was listed Burnley Barracks Station - photo courtesy LYRS as dealing with passenger trains only, goods were dealt with at Rose Grove or Burnley Bank Top the adjacent stations.
