    Our ref: 2387/21 Figures for incidents of drink spiking in your region over the last 5 years (year by year) I would appreciate it if the figures can be broken down to the nearest city/town. Can you also tell me the number of prosecutions there have been for the above offences and how many of those resulted in a conviction? Please see the attached document. West Yorkshire Police receive reports of crimes that have occurred following a victim having their drink spiked, crimes such as rape, sexual assault, violence with or without injury and theft. West Yorkshire Police take all offences seriously and will ensure that all reports are investigated. Specifically for victims of rape and serious sexual offences, depending on when the offence occurred, they would be offered an examination at our Sexual Assault Referral Centre, where forensic samples, including a blood sample for toxicology can be taken, with the victim’s consent, if within the timeframes and guidance from the Faculty for Forensic and Legal Medicine. West Yorkshire Police work with support agencies to ensure that all victims of crime are offered support through the criminal justice process, including specialist support such as from Independent Sexual Violence Advisors.

  • THE HISTORY of CLARENDON VILLAS FOREWORD Whilst Researching the Material for My First
    THE HISTORY OF CLARENDON VILLAS FOREWORD Whilst researching the material for my first ‘House History’ project, ‘Highfield House & Sowood House’, (2010), I collected a great deal of information concerning other neighbouring land and buildings. After a great deal of thought I decided it was a shame not to make use of this material. The result of this decision was the production of two more Local/House History publications. My second project ‘The History of the South Ossett Triangle’ is a potted history of the land shaped like a triangle, bordered by three roads, now called Horbury Road, Manor Road and Sowood Lane. On this land was built the Parish Church, the Vicarage and the two Schools. This third project I have called ‘The History of Clarendon Villas and Greystones House’. These two new books (along with the Highfield and Sowood House one) complete a Trilogy of publications covering all the large houses as well as the Ecclesiastical Buildings on this area of land, built in the 19th Century. Clarendon Villas, is situated on Horbury Road, up the next driveway to Highfield House & Cottage. (Access is now from Vicar Lane) The bottom of the garden of Greystones House backed onto the garden of Highfield Cottage. The daughter of the family who lived in part of Highfield House, Gwen Hopkins, married John Judge and they bought No 18b (which included the garden) of Greystones. My parents allowed Gwen to come into our garden and pass through our garage in order to visit her parents, thus saving about a half mile journey! I have tried my best to verify all the information used in this publication but mistakes do happen and I crave your indulgence for any that may have been made.

  • YORKSHIRE EVENING POST 1890 to 1900
    YORKSHIRE EVENING POST 1890 to 1900 1 3 December 1890 An inquest was held yesterday on the body of Sarah Jackson, 37, the wife of a canal boatman. Deceased had only arrived in Salford with her husband, when she went ashore with him. On returning to the flat some little time before him, the deceased, it is believed, missed her footing in the darkness and fell into the canal at Oldfield Road. Search was made for the body, which was found near the shore side. A verdict of “Found drowned” was returned. 2 26 December 1890 CHRISTMASTIDE IN LEEDS Of all the holidays in the year, Christmastide is perhaps looked forward to with the most interest, inasmuch as to many people it means their annual visit to the best and oldest friends they have got, and to a reuniting of old ties. Then, of all times in the year, is it that the family circle is met together, old differences are healed, and the occasion is made one of festivity. This Christmas has been no exception to the rule, in the latter respect, at any rate ; but, unfortunately, the weather has not been so auspicious as it might have been. In the early part of the week, it appeared probable that we should have a real old fashioned Christmas, with real frost and snow. A thaw, however, set in on Wednesday, and on Christmas Eve, the streets of the town were in A VERY DISAGREEABLE CONDITION rendering “sight seeing” and “shopping” less popular than they would have been. On the same night, and early on Christmas morning too, it is said that the principal streets from time to time were the scene of rowdyism of the most disgraceful kind.

    Site Locator for Register of John Wesley’s Preaching Texts Introduction The list which follows on the next page provides location details for the sites mentioned in the Register of John Wesley’s Preaching Texts. Sites range from cities, to villages, to hamlets, to manor houses. They stretch across England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales; with scattered visits to the Channel Islands and Isle of Man; and Wesley’s single trips to North America and Holland. The general format of the location description is: village, county/shire, nation. For smaller sites, reference indicators of proximity to larger sites are often included. Charing Cross is used as the traditional center for London in such proximity descriptions. For locations in England, Scotland and Wales, the traditional county/shire name is given, both to reflect how Wesley would have known the site and in keeping with preferred historical practice. Sites in England, Scotland and Wales were originally identified using the Bartholomew Gazetteer of Places in Britain, 2d edn. (London: John Bartholomew & Son, Ltd., 1986). This resource has recently been made available in an updated online format. All identifications have been verified in this new resource. Those who wish to know the modern “administrative county” listings for these sites (as used on Mapquest, for example, rather than the traditional county/shire names), can find this information on this online source, which provides both types of information. Gazetteer of British Place Names: http://www.gazetteer.co.uk/ The Gazetteer also references the grid location for each site on the standard Ordnance Survey Maps of Great Britain (Landranger Series, 1:50 000).

She was very excited, and told Police-constable O'Beirne that she had had a falling out with her young man, who refused to speak to her. She further said she would “do it again”. The girl was taken to the Infirmary, still in an excitable state. Mr Hartley, of the Infirmary staff, said prisoner ought to be under supervision. She evidently firmly intended to attempt suicide again if she got the chance. The girl's mother said her daughter's young man came to her house last night before this affair occurred, and said he had seen Emily, but did not say anything further.

  • And 14Th-Century West Yorkshire Wenyeva Atte Grene
    Locative and toponymic bynames in 13th- and 14th-century West Yorkshire Wenyeva atte grene Wendi Dunlap [email protected] Introduction The Wakeeld Court Rolls are records of manorial court proceedings from the Wakeeld Manor in the West Riding of Yorkshire. The earliest Roll extant is from 1274, and the records continue, with some breaks, until the 1920s. As records of the activity on the Manor, the Rolls contain many names of Wakeeld-area residents. The most common names in thirteenth century records are locative and toponymic, and though relationship names become more common in fourteenth century Rolls, locative and toponymic names continue to be seen in high numbers during this period. These names provide us with many period place name spellings, some of which are not found in other references commonly used in SCA onomastic research. The following names have been drawn from my unpublished research into the Rolls in 127475 and 135052. This content is much abbreviated for the purpose of this article; for reasons of space, I am only occasionally including etymologies of the place names included in these bynames. I am working from 20th century reprints of the Rolls. The Rolls of 1274 75 were published in both English and Latin in 1901, and I double-checked the Latin record as needed. Given names here were generally normalized from the Latin forms by the modern translator, with some exceptions, so most of these entries are not useful for determining period given name spellings. The surnames are not normalized unless noted, and are given in Latin if that was the form used.
