  • Discovering Bingley
    DISCOVERING BINGLEY A great walk to discover Bingley starts at the train station then goes around the Aire River and Harden Beck Foot, the Leeds and Liverpool canal and its famous Five Rise Locks to finish all the way up to Gilstead crag, just to appreciate the view, and comes back down to the station through quiet streets. There are regular trains from Leeds or Bradford Forster Square. It's also a stop on the Leeds to Carlisle line. If you are coming by car, there are plenty of parking spaces at the Wellington Street car park which is next to the station (charges apply). The train Station car park is free for railway users but is often full unfortunately. The itinerary: www.walk4life.info/walk/discovering-bingley TO MYRTLE PARK From the Station make your way towards Main Street and cross the road. Before going to Myrtle Park, have a look at the old Market Hall and Butter Cross opposite Bingley Little Theatre entrance on the town square. Bingley was awarded a Market Town status in 1212 and these monuments are reminders of this past. Now make your way towards Myrtle Park entrance which is opposite the swimming pool and behind the former Bradford & Bingley building. RIVER AIRE AND HARDEN BECKFOOT You can now cross the park and make your way to its far end towards the river Aire. For interest, the Park is used for many public events including the annual Bingley Music Live Festival and the Bingley Show. Cross the pedestrian bridge and you will find allotments on your right hand side on the other side of the river.

  • FISHERIES in YORKSHIRE NOVEMBER 2017 Natural Flood
    FISHERIES IN YORKSHIRE NOVEMBER 2017 Natural Flood Management: Good for people, rivers and fish. In recent years, the Environment Agency placed an increased emphasis on Natural Flood Management (NFM) as part of a series of measures to manage flood risk. NFM involves working with natural processes to slow the flow of river water and reduce surface water run- off. This can include measures such as restoring flood plains, planting trees, installing felled timber within woodlands to intercept flow, and building leaky dams within river channels, like the one picture (left) at Crakemoor in the Upper Aire. These techniques are a useful addition to traditional flood risk management techniques, such as floodwater storage areas and riverside walling; but engineering solutions will still remain part of the overall mix of flood defence measures. In addition to helping manage flood risk, NFM also benefits the environment and fisheries. Slower flows across land lead to less erosion and reduces the amount of fine sediment being washed into the channel. Fine sediments can settle on the river bed, smothering gravels and reducing the quality of fish spawning and feeding grounds. The Environment Agency and our partners have a good track record of using techniques which provide an NFM benefit, in completed and ongoing ecological improvement projects. This year, partnership funding has been announced to allow us to take advantage of the lastest NFM techniques in the Upper Ure and Bishopdale, Brompton and Backstones Beck catchments, as well as Derwent Villages (Yorkshire Wildlife Trust with Derwent Catchment Partnership), Collingham Beck (Dales to Vales River Trust) and Midgelden Brook, upper Calder (Treesponsibility with the Source Partnership).

  • The Parasitic Copepods Achtheres Percarum Nordmann and Salmincola Gordoni Gurney in Yorkshire
    The Parasitic Copepods Achtheres percarum Nordmann and Salmincola gordoni Gurney in Yorkshire GEOFFREY FRYER Freshwater Biological Association, Ambleside, Westmorland f- 634 756 Reprinted from the July—September 1969 issue of The Naturalist (No. 910) 77 THE PARASITIC COPEPODS ACHTHERES PERCARUM NORDMANN AND SALMINCOLA GORDONI GURNEY IN YORKSHIRE GEOFFREY FRYER Freshwater Biological Association, Ambleside, Westmorland Of the two parasitic copepods referred to here, both of which belong to the family Lernaeopodidae, Achtheres percarum was collected in Britain for the first time in 1954 in the River Colne, and in the Grand Union and Kennet and Avon Canals, all of which are in the Thames drainage area (Harding & Gervers, 1956). Since then it has been reported from Rostherne Mere, Cheshire [Rizvi — unpublished thesis, cited by Chubb (1965)] but not apparently elsewhere in this country. Because of the confusion in which it was involved (see below) it was, however, described and illustrated by Gurney (1933) in his monograph of the British freshwater Copepoda. The material he used came from continental Europe. The other species, Salmincola gordoni, was already known in Yorkshire and was indeed described from specimens collected in the River Rye (Gurney, 1933). It has since been reported from Scotland (Friend, 1939) where it had already been found prior to Gurney's work but had been erroneously reported (Scott & Scott, 1913) as Achtheres percarum, and has more recently been reported from the Isle of Man (Bruce, Colman & Jones, 1963). Outside the British Isles it is unknown. (It is possible that S. heintzi (Neresheimer) from Bavaria, which I regard as unrecognisable from existing descriptions, is closely related to this species.)

  • This Walk from Bingley to Cullingworth Is Something of a Wandering Ramble
    This walk description is from happyhiker.co.uk Bingley To Cullingworth Starting point and OS Grid reference Bingley – On street parking at Fairfax Road. (SE 107402) Ordnance Survey map OL21 South Pennines – Burnley, Hebden Bridge, Keighley and Todmorden OS Explorer Map 288 - Bradford & Huddersfield Distance 12.6 miles Traffic light rating Introduction: This walk from Bingley to Cullingworth is something of a wandering ramble. It shows that it is possible to have a decent walk without trekking off into the wilds. There are a lot of interesting features on this walk including the famous Bingley Five Rise Locks on the Leeds/Liverpool Canal, River Aire, Goit Stock Waterfalls and the Hewenden Viaduct which you cross. For me, one of the most interesting features was the George Hotel in Cullingworth for lunch! A wide range of Old Spot beers are brewed “up t’road” by the owner of the pub and the quality of the OSB I had and the food were exemplary. Attractive black faced stone cottages abound and the terrain varies from tarmac to field footpaths and moorland. The walking itself is quite easy but the route is quite complicated to describe in places and the directions are therefore quite lengthy. In part, the walk follows the Millennium Way. Unfortunately, although there are many good views, on the day I did the walk, it was rather murky so I did not take view photos. The walk starts near the Bingley Five Rise Locks and the best place to park is in the residential street Fairfax Road. To get there from the centre of Bingley, turn north at the main traffic lights up Park Road.
