  • The Walls but on the Rampart Underneath and the Ditch Surrounding Them
    A walk through 1,900 years of history The Bar Walls of York are the finest and most complete of any town in England. There are five main “bars” (big gateways), one postern (a small gateway) one Victorian gateway, and 45 towers. At two miles (3.4 kilometres), they are also the longest town walls in the country. Allow two hours to walk around the entire circuit. In medieval times the defence of the city relied not just on the walls but on the rampart underneath and the ditch surrounding them. The ditch, which has been filled in almost everywhere, was once 60 feet (18.3m) wide and 10 feet (3m) deep! The Walls are generally 13 feet (4m) high and 6 feet (1.8m) wide. The rampart on which they stand is up to 30 feet high (9m) and 100 feet (30m) wide and conceals the earlier defences built by Romans, Vikings and Normans. The Roman defences The Normans In AD71 the Roman 9th Legion arrived at the strategic spot where It took William The Conqueror two years to move north after his the rivers Ouse and Foss met. They quickly set about building a victory at the Battle of Hastings in 1066.

However, when William marched north to quell the potential for rebellion his advance caused such alarm that he entered the city The first defences were simple: a ditch, an embankment made of unopposed.

  • Air Quality – Annual Status Report
    24 September 2020 Decision Session – Executive Member for Environment and Climate Change Report of the Corporate Director, Economy and Place Air Quality – Annual Status Report Executive Summary 1. The report details the latest air quality monitoring results for the city and progress on delivering the measures in York’s third Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP3) to deliver further improvements. 2. Recent air quality monitoring can be summarised as follows: There has been a general downward trend in Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) concentrations monitored across the city since 2012, although year on year improvements in NO2 have been much less pronounced over the last 2-3 years and in some areas appear to have plateaued. This clearly demonstrates the need to continue to deliver the air quality improvement measures in AQAP3. The health based annual average nitrogen dioxide (NO2) objective is still being breached at some locations in the city, including Gillygate, Holgate / Blossom Street and Rougier Street / George Hudson Street. Elevated levels of NO2, below the objective, were monitored along Nunnery Lane, Lawrence Street, Fishergate and Coppergate. NO2 concentrations in the former Salisbury Terrace and Fulford Road AQMAs are still well within health based limits. National air quality objectives for PM10 and PM2.5 are currently easily met in York. There does not appear to be any clear trend in PM10 concentrations based on monitoring over the last 8 years. The general downward trend in PM10 concentrations observed at roadside monitoring sites up to 2017 has not continued through 2018 and 2019. Concentrations of PM2.5 have generally decreased at roadside locations in recent years, although PM2.5 monitored at York’s background monitoring station have been more variable.

  • Henry Isaac Rowntree: His Life and Legacy (Reprinted from York Historian Vol
    1 Henry Isaac Rowntree: his life and legacy (reprinted from York Historian vol. 28) Elizabeth Jackson Summary: Although Joseph Rowntree is the name which springs to mind when thinking of York’s great chocolate and confectionery business, the family only got into this field through the initiative of his brother Henry Isaac, whose life and career are explored here. He emerges as a likeable and impulsive character, fully sharing the progressive social and political views of his father and siblings, putting his beliefs into effect through the Adult Schools and York Temperance Society, and even founding a newspaper, the Yorkshire Express, to advance the Radical Liberal cause. Yet he lacked the business brain and methodical approach of brother Joseph, who was ultimately drawn into the cocoa business to get him out of trouble. Figure 1. Henry Isaac Rowntree (courtesy of Bootham School Archives) Introduction. One afternoon in the early eighteen-sixties William S. Rowntree, then a pupil at Bootham school, encountered his ‘cousin’ Henry in a York street, and was taken by him to see a new cocoa grinding machine installed in a small room in his works near the corner of Coppergate and Castlegate. Henry explained his visionary aim - to manufacture something that would come to be essential in every home.1 William liked Henry – his kindness, humour and racy stories made him a hero in the boy’s eyes. And he enjoyed visiting at the house on the corner of Bootham and St Mary’s where Henry lived with his widowed mother Sarah, his older brothers John and Joseph having already married and set up home.

  • St. Leonards Place/Bootham/Gillygate
    Decision Session - Cabinet Member for 19 November 2012 Transport, Planning and Sustainability Report of the Director of City and Environmental Services ST LEONARD’S PLACE / BOOTHAM / GILLYGATE JUNCTION – LOCAL SAFETY SCHEME – SIGNING & MARKING IMPROVEMENTS Summary 1. The St Leonard’s Place / Bootham / Gillygate junction has been identified as an accident cluster site. The area is likely to benefit from a major project as part of Reinvigorate York in the next couple of years. However, in the interim, a minor scheme has been developed to help address the types of accidents that are occurring, by improving the signs and road markings. Recommendations 2. That the Cabinet Member approve the implementation of the signing and road marking improvements shown in Annex B . Reason: To improve road safety, and reduce the number and severity of collisions. Background 3. Every year, the latest police injury accident data for the Council area is analysed to identify any clusters or patterns, with a view to introducing measures to improve road safety at these locations. The junction of St Leonard’s Place with Bootham and Gillygate has been identified as an accident cluster site with nine injury accidents recorded in the last three years. 4. Most of the recent accidents occurred on the St Leonard’s Place approach to the traffic signals. Although there is little similarity between the accidents, it does appear that poor lane discipline may be a contributory factor. There has also been a shunt type accident involving a cyclist at the signals on Bootham, and site observations suggest that at peak times the advance stop line box is not large enough to accommodate the number of cyclists.
