Open Season at Kiplin Hall and Gardens Extended Creating a Tranquil Pre-Christmas Retreat Open season at Kiplin Hall and Gardens extended creating a tranquil pre-Christmas retreat A cote of 543 paper doves has come to roost a Kilpin Hall this November. Volunteers have been working since August to fold old maps into the origami paper birds to form an art installation in the main staircase and historic rooms of the hall. One has even been flown in by mail from a follower in American. Director, James Etherington, explains the motivation behind the artwork. “The beautiful display of origami doves and ships made from old maps link to the adventurous story of the hall's creator. Kiplin Hall was built in the 1620’s by George Calvert, whose family went on to found the first settlements in Maryland in the USA. The paper creations are inspired by the two ships, The Ark and The Dove, which carried colonists from England to Maryland in 1634. The flock of paper doves suspended from the main staircase floats majestically past Calvert's impressive portrait, headed toward the window, with views of the lake, folly and horizon beyond. We hope the display provides a pre-Christmas retreat for visitors, a moment for calm reflection before the busy festive period takes over.” Although normally closed at this time of year, visitors have an extra opportunity to enjoy Kiplin Hall and Gardens as the open season has been extended until Sunday 24th November opening 11am – 4pm 5 days a week. As well as the origami installation the popular No Borders contemporary art exhibition continues to impress visitors. The contemporary artworks are for sale, making unique and special Christmas gifts to be treasured for generations. Landscape paintings, prints, and ceramics are all part of the display featuring established and emerging artists from the region and across the country. As well as its usual high-quality food and drink the Tea Room larder is bursting with chutneys and jams made from produce grown in the walled gardens. You simply can’t get more local than that. Fruit packed handmade Christmas cakes and hampers are also available to order. The gift shop is well stocked with ecologically friendly toiletries from Yorkshire makers, small wooden toys, and stationery featuring artwork from the V&A and National Gallery Collection. Perfect for those unusual stocking fillers. Seasonal, handmade refreshments are being served in the tearoom throughout the extended open season. Once closed Kiplin Hall and Gardens will reopen in February 2020 as the renowned snow drops emerge, carpeting the ground in the historic woodland. Images 1.

  • Servants' Passage
    SERVANTS’ PASSAGE: Cultural identity in the architecture of service in British and American country houses 1740-1890 2 Volumes Volume 1 of 2 Aimée L Keithan PhD University of York Archaeology March 2020 Abstract Country house domestic service is a ubiquitous phenomenon in eighteenth and nineteenth century Britain and America. Whilst shared architectural and social traditions between the two countries are widely accepted, distinctive cultural identity in servant architecture remains unexplored. This thesis proposes that previously unacknowledged cultural differences between British and American domestic service can be used to rewrite narratives and re-evaluate the significance of servant spaces. It uses the service architecture itself as primary source material, relying on buildings archaeology methodologies to read the physical structures in order to determine phasing. Archival sources are mined for evidence of individuals and household structure, which is then mapped onto the architecture, putting people into their spaces over time. Spatial analysis techniques are employed to reveal a more complex service story, in both British and American houses and within Anglo-American relations. Diverse spatial relationships, building types and circulation channels highlight formerly unrecognised service system variances stemming from unique cultural experiences in areas like race, gender and class. Acknowledging the more nuanced relationship between British and American domestic service restores the cultural identity of country house servants whose lives were not only shaped by, but who themselves helped shape the architecture they inhabited. Additionally, challenging accepted narratives by re-evaluating domestic service stories provides a solid foundation for a more inclusive country house heritage in both nations. This provides new factors on which to value modern use of servant spaces in historic house museums, expanding understanding of their relevance to modern society.

  • Yorkshire Swale Flood History 2013
    Yorkshire Swale flood history 2013 Sources The greater part of the information for the River Swale comes from a comprehensive PhD thesis by Hugh Bowen Willliams to the University of Leeds in 1957.He in turn has derived his information from newspaper reports, diaries, local topographic descriptions, minutes of Local Authority and Highway Board and, further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts. The information is supplemented by various conversations which Williams had with farmers who owned land adjacent to the river. Where possible the height of the flood at the nearest cross- section of the place referred to in the notes is given. This has either been levelled or estimated from the available data. Together with the level above Ordnance Datum (feet) and the section in question there is given (in brackets) the height of the flood above normal water level. Information is also included from the neighbouring dales (mainly Wensleydale and Teesdale) as this gives some indication of conditions in Swaledale. Williams indicates that this is by no means a complete list, but probably contains most of the major floods in the last 200 years, together with some of the smaller ones in the last 70 years. Date and Rainfall Description sources 11 Sep 1673 Spate carried away dwelling house at Brompton-on-Swale. Burnsell Bridge on the Wharfe was washed away.
