Car Parking Charges for the Station, Richmond Swimming CAR PARKING CHARGES FOR THE STATION, RICHMOND SWIMMING POOL AND GYM CUSTOMERS ARE ON THE WAY; HOWEVER, YOU CAN MAKE THEM FAIRER IF YOU ACT IMMEDIATELY BY EXPRESSING YOUR VIEWS Richmondshire District Council is proposing to introduce car parking charges in The Station Yard Car Park this spring. We understand that the ticket machines have been ordered . This car park is currently used by customers of The Station, Richmond Swimming Pool and Liberty Gym. All of these buildings and the activities which take place in them are organised and maintained through the efforts of two local volunteer-led charities: The Station – Is operated by The Richmondshire Building Preservation Trust The Pool and Gym – Are operated by the Richmond Leisure Trust If you regularly use these ‘much loved’ charity-run-facilities , and choose to park your vehicle in the council owned Station Yard Car Park, you will shortly be charged for your visit. The charities that operate these facilities believe that what is being proposed will have an immediate and detrimental impact on these community amenities which are run on a ‘not-for profit’ basis - and could ultimately force them to close. The local authority appear to have little or no relevant research on which to justify their position. Your help is needed NOW to ensure that the views of people like you, who value The Station, pool and gym, to make your voices heard on this critical issue by writing to or phoning your district councillor, if you live in Richmondshire or writing to the head of the local authority if you don't. We would also ask you to share your views with the media. The information you'll need to do this is on the Richmondshire District Council website and is also shown below. Two vitally important developments have taken place recently that could affect the outcome of this situation: THE STATION HAS OFFERED TO BUY THE CAR PARK 1) The Charity which runs the Station has offered to purchase the Station Yard Car Park from Richmondshire District Council for £250,000. This is a substantial amount of money and represents one-third of the District Council’s current budget deficit. If The Station owns the car park it would propose to provide two hours of free car parking to any customers of The Station businesses, the swimming pool and the gym. A charge of £1 would be made to customers wishing to park for up to four hours. DISTRICT COUNCIL PARKING CHARGES COULD KILL OFF THE STATION, POOL AND GYM 2) Richmondshire District Council has published a list of the charges that they intend to impose which would mean that EVERYONE using The Station Yard Car Park will have to pay, even if you are parking there to use these charity-run-facilities. With the RDC proposed charges, just visiting for one hour will cost £1.10 ; a four hour stay will cost £3.10 . These charges are extremely high – especially for an ‘out-of-town’ car park serving a very specific group of amenities. You can greatly influence the outcome of this vitally important matter by expressing your views in writing or with a phone call. It is vital that you let your views be known NOW whilst consultation is taking place – otherwise there is a likelihood that the district council will push ahead with their plans and the sensible alternative which the Station Charity has proposed will not be properly heard and may be dismissed as having no support. Here are some of the points you may want to make known: 1 Ask the District Council why they don’t wish to support and encourage local charities by keeping The Station Yard Car Park free or simply sell it to The Station Charity? 2 If you have to pay extra to park your car when you go swimming, maybe you will you stop going to the pool or go to another pool that has free car parking. 3 If you have to pay extra to park your car, just to have a cup of coffee in The Station, maybe you will stop using this facility completely. 4 Ask if The Station Yard Car Park is essential to providing local services that the council is ‘required to do by law’ and if not why don’t they sell it to The Station Charity and gain an extra £250,000 which they could use to improve the services that they must offer local people . 5 Please remind them that The Station redevelopment was largely achieved – and is still run - through the efforts of unpaid volunteers who continue to help to look after the building. 6 Please remind them that The Station receives no local grant or financial support from local government to provide the services which take place in the building. The Station doesn’t cost local people a penny through local taxes. 7 The Station redevelopment project brought £2,700,000 of funding into Richmondshire and has provided one of the most admired attractions anywhere in the region. 8 The Station attracts around 350,000 visitors each year and has created 35 jobs in the district. It has served to help regenerate the fortunes of the entire town. 9 The swimming pool attracted 155,000 swimmers in 2011; an increase of 5% on 2010 and considerably higher than the national trend which is declining. 10 Richmond Pool delivers over 5,100 swimming lessons every month which includes babies, children, adults, disabled swimmers and school parties. Two Olympians began their careers here. 11 Since the Leisure Trust took over the management of the Liberty Health Club memberships have grown by 44%. 12 The Leisure Trust has introduced the Les Mills exercise to music programme at the gym and is the only club in North Yorkshire that offers this programme. Attendances at these classes have risen from 600 per month to just under 1,100 per month. WHO TO WRITE TO OR PHONE 1 Your district councillor, if you live in Richmondshire. All of their names, addresses and phone numbers are listed on the attached page. If you're still not sure who your councillor is just ring the council offices and ask. Their number is 01748 829100 . These are the people who want to hear your views. They need to know that you believe the car park should be sold to The Station Charity to secure the future of The Station, pool and gym and also to generate £250,000 of extra funding for the local authority. 2 If you live outside Richmondshire, please send your letter to the Leader of the Council, Mr John Blackie. His address and contact details as shown on RDC web-site are : Mr John Blackie Richmondshire District Council Leader Dryden House Market Place Hawes, North Yorkshire DL8 3RA - Phone - 01969 667123 - Mobile - 07967 589096 3 Regardless as to what action you take, please keep us informed of what you've done. 4 If you want help with your letter or have any specific questions about this issue please contact: Donald Cline 68 Frenchgate Richmond, North Yorkshire DL10 7AG - Phone 01748 822116 [email protected] 5. The Northern Echo and Darlington and Stockton Times will like to know what you think. If you can, send them a copy of your letter, email them or give them a call. Joe Willis - The Northern Echo - Priestgate, Darlington, DL1 1NF 01325 505067 - Email: [email protected] Malcolm Warne - D & S Times - Priestgate, Darlington, DL1 1NF 01325 505109 Email: [email protected] The best outcome for the community from our joint efforts will be to convince Richmondshire District Council to sell the car park to The Station Charity. Once they impose parking charges, the future of The Station, the pool and gym are in real doubt.

  • Hymnody + Resistance
    Council of Lutheran Churches: Reformation 500 Hymnody and Christian War-Resistance: Voices for Peace 1914–1918 Rev’d Dr Clive Barrett Clive Barrett was County Ecumenical Officer for West Yorkshire Ecumenical Council. Author of Subversive Peacemakers: War-Resistance 1914-1918 (Lutterworth, Cambridge, 2014), he is Chair of the Trustees of the Peace Museum, Bradford, and a visiting fellow in Theology and Religious Studies at the University of Leeds. Overview This paper will consider how several strands of Protestant tradition appear from the perspective of those who resisted war in Europe in 1914–18, some of whom had assembled for a 1914 pan-Protestant peace conference on Lake Constance, 499 years after the death of Jan Hus. > Within Unitas Fratrum, there were those holding a clear commitment to nonviolence. The anti-militarist writing of Jon Wyclif (c 1330–84), the stand of Jan Hus (c 1371–1415), and the rebuilding of the movement under Petr Chelčický (c 1390–1460), all contributed to a heritage of nonviolence for the emerging Moravian Church. War-resistance and nonviolence are part of the pre-history of the Reformation. > Within the British Methodist and Nonconformist traditions, music and hymn- singing provided a means for expressing and bolstering faith and commitment, and for standing firm to one’s conscience (cf Luther), including a commitment to war-resistance in the name of Christ > Within Lutheranism, this paper examines two individuals whose broad commitment to peace transcended narrow nationalisms. Wyclif, Hus and Chelčický Richmond is a small town on the River Swale in North Yorkshire, dominated by an eleventh-century Norman castle.

  • Low Coniscliffe & Merrybent Parish Coucil S106 Application
    Application for Funding Re. S106 Agreement - Planning Application: 16/01231/FUL Introduction Low Coniscliffe and Merrybent Parish Council hereby lodge an application to secure S106 funding in support of their project to provide a sustainable, safe, pleasant environment, in the small historic village of Low Coniscliffe, located to the west of the market town of Darlington. The sustainable project will provide access for all, to the Teesdale Way and banks of the River Tees whilst encouraging biodiversity. The project is to undertake: Essential works to improve the Teesdale Way footpaths and undertake health and safety work to the woodland Removal of invasive species plants such as Snowberry, Hogweed and Himalayan Balsam The creation of a high level of biodiversity by planting more and diverse species of trees, hedging and shrubs and by installing different types of birdboxes.

History The earliest evidence of occupation in Low Coniscliffe is a burial mound recently found on the field to the East of Gate Lane at the entrance to the village of Low Coniscliffe. The mound dates from between 1500 BC and 2400 BC and shows that pastoral people of the time had developed an attachment to the Low Coniscliffe area. Various historical records contain references to Low Coniscliffe evidencing a pele tower, a Manor House, a dovecot, a medieval tythe barn, gallows and a toll gate located at the entrance road into the village hence the name Gate Lane.

  • Heritage at Risk Register
    CASTLE HOWARD MAUSOLEUM Castle Howard Estate, Ryedale, North Yorkshire The Mausoleum, by Hawksmoor, 1729-42, and modelled on the tomb of Metella, is a major feature of the Howardian Hills. Situated on a bluff east of Castle Howard. The columns were repaired with a grant in the 1980s. The entablature and bastions continue to decay. Much of the damage is due to rusting cramps. The staircase balustrade is collapsing. 304 HERITAGE AT RISK YORKSHIRE & THE HUMBER 305 Y&H HERITAGE AT RISK 2008 Of the 176 entries on the baseline 1999 Yorkshire and the Humber buildings at risk register, 91(52%) have now been removed. Although this is 6% higher than the regional average for 2008, our rate of progress is slowing. Of the five entries removed this year, only one was on the 1999 register. This is because the core of buildings remaining from the 1999 register are either scheduled monuments with no obvious use, or buildings with a problematic future that require a strategic re-think to provide a viable solution. Despite these problems, we are continuing to work with owners, local authorities, trusts and other funding bodies to try to secure the long-term future of these buildings and structures. Just over half (52%) of the regional grants budget (almost £500,000) was offered to eleven buildings at risk in the last financial year. There are four new entries this year: in North Yorkshire, St Leonard’s Church at Sand Hutton, and in West Yorkshire, Hopton Congregational Church in Mirfield,Westwood Mills at Linthwaite, and Stank Hall near Leeds.This gives a total of 122 Grade I and II* listed buildings and scheduled monuments at risk entries on the Yorkshire and the Humber register.

More than 1000 respondents gave their views on issues ranging from Council services to public events and car parking; the responses, including more than 5000 written comments, were analysed, prioritised and published in May 2018 as the Leyburn Town Plan. With reference to Richmondshire District Council’s current Local Plan calling for a large number of new houses to be built in and around Leyburn the survey solicited views on the type and tenure of houses in any new developments.
