  • Tales from Dalesrail
    Tales from DalesRail A great walk from Hellifield By John Barnes (& Jessica Lofthouse) DalesRail may not be operating in 2020 but that doesn’t stop us sharing our many interesting experiences about our journeys. We hope you will share your interesting stories, favourite walks, fascinating anecdotes and pictures about DalesRail. Please send them to [email protected] or Simon Clarke at [email protected]. Maps: Ordnance Survey Explorer OL41 – Forest of Bowland and Ribblesdale Ordnance Survey Explorer OL2 – Yorkshire Dales Southern & Western areas. Hellifield is the first port of call on the Leeds – Carlisle railway for the Lancashire DalesRail service. In days gone by Hellifield existed for cattle and cattle dealers as well as for trains and railway workers and is much older than a first glance would indicate. This is how Jessica Lofthouse described the countryside and places around Hellifield (edited): John Ogilby in his map shows the way to Settle as crossing a moor. No road could be less like a moor than the modern highway, but the old coach road from Town Head at Long Preston climbed to the wild heights of Hunter Bark and dropped even more steeply into Settle. It is quite the best pedestrian way. I find it irresistible. I forgot I had intended to take the train to Settle. A green grass-grown way it is, open to the flax-coloured bents and miles of heather covered fells. The Craven old way of the Romans, the invading route of Angles and Danes penetrating from the Aire Gap, the drove road of shepherds and cattle men from Scotland, the only coach road for centuries, and still used by countryfolk to avoid tolls long after the lower turnpike road was made.

The Settlement Hierarchy Background Paper: September 2018, which draws upon evidence on settlement services and characteristics gathered by the Council in 2012 and 2015, provides the justification for the settlement hierarchy contained in this policy. Settlement Hierarchy 4.37 The market town of Skipton is the largest town in the District and plan area (by a considerable margin), located in the south of the plan area in the strategic ‘Aire Gap’ through the Pennines linking Yorkshire with Lancashire. It contains the administrative functions of the District Council and is the base for a range of North Yorkshire County Council services. Skipton has the largest town centre, offers the widest range of employment opportunities, goods and services in the District and plan area and is well connected with the A road network and rail network. Skipton is therefore identified as a Tier 1 Principal Town Service Centre in the settlement hierarchy. 4.38 The market towns of Settle and Bentham, and the villages of Glusburn/Crosshills, Ingleton and Gargrave are all smaller settlements than Skipton.

  • Yorkshire Archaeological Research Framework: Resource Assessment
    Yorkshire Archaeological Research Framework: resource assessment A report prepared for the Yorkshire Archaeological Research Framework Forum and for English Heritage – project number 2936 RFRA S. Roskams and M. Whyman (Department of Archaeology, University of York) 2005 ABSTRACT This report represents the outcome of research undertaken into the archaeological resources of Yorkshire, using data gathered by SMRs, museums and commercial contractors. It describes the background to the project and its objectives, and the methods used to draw evidence from these diverse sources into a single database. It then proceeds to describe patterning in the data thus collected and collated, first at a general level across the region, then on a chronological basis from the Palaeolithic to Early Modern periods. In each period, the implications of this patterning for archaeological understanding of Yorkshire are drawn out.
