    RIVER QUALITY SURVEY NATIONAL RIVERS AUTHORITY NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 PART 1 REA CH CLASSIFICA TION FRESHWATER RIVERS AND CANALS VERSION 1: AUGUST 1995 GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 \ NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION To allow the development of a National method of evaluating water quality, the rivers in all the NRA regions of England and Wales have been divided into reaches, which are numbered using a coding system based on the hydrological reference for each river basin. Each classified reach then has a chemistry sample point assigned to it and these sample points are regularly monitored for Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Dissolved oxygen (DO) and Total Ammonia. The summary statistics calculated from the results of this sampling are sent to a National Centre where the GQA Grades are calculated. A National report is produced and each region can then produce more detailed reports on the quality of their own rivers. For Northumbria and Yorkshire Region, this Regional Report has been divided into two parts. PARTI: REACH CLASSIFICATION This report contains a listing of the river reaches within the region, with their start and finish grid reference, approximate length, and the 1990 and 1994 GQA class for each reach. The reference code of the chemistry sample point used to classify the reach is also included. A sample point may classify several reaches if there are no major discharges or tributaries dividing those reaches. The sample point used to classify a reach may change and the classification is therefore calculated using the summary statistics for each sample point that has been used over the past three years.

  • The Origin of the Lathes of East Kent

    The Origin of the Lathes of East Kent

    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 133 2013 THE ORIGIN OF THE LATHES OF EAST KENT JAMES LLOYD No two English counties are the same but Kent has many peculiarities. The lathes, administrative divisions which are now obsolete, have attracted much comment and their origin has been the cause of considerable speculation. This essay reviews some of the earlier theories on this subject and offers one of its own. Questions of their function and the officers and courts which manifested them deserve to be discussed but, for the sake of brevity and simplicity, this essay will restrict itself to a very basic discussion of the factors which caused the early development of the lathes and how they assumed their names. Owing to the imbalance of evidence, the essay’s emphasis will be on the east Kent lathes.1 The first detailed survey of the lathes is that in the Domesday Book, in which Kent was divided into seven (Map 1a); Boruuar Lest, Estrelest, Linuuartlest, Wiuuartlest,2 Lest de Sudtone, Lest de Ailesford3 and Lest de Middeltune.4 Of the four east Kent lathes, Estrelest means the lathe of Eastry and the other three are lathes of the wara (Old English for ‘men’, crudely converted into legal Latin) of the borough (i.e. Canterbury), the River Limen and Wye respectively. They are also found as ‘Lest de Borowart’,5 ‘Lest de Estrede’,6 ‘Lest de Linuuarlet’7 and ‘Lest de Wiwarlet’.8 By contrast, the three west Kent lathes are named directly after the estates of Sutton-at-Hone, Aylesford and Milton, of which the first and last are also found as ‘dimidius lest’ (half-lathe).9 The first reference to the Limen-wara is in a charter of 724,10 which alludes to land ‘on Limenwearawealde’, in the weald of the men of the Limen, (i.e.
