  • Extract 5 John Keavey and Yorkshire Folk
    JOHN KEAVEY AND YORKSHIRE FOLK JK It’s a lovely photograph. It takes me back, you know, to my early days. WRM Yes, this particular book would... I’m not sure which towns they cover; I don’t think Leeds will come into it very much. It’ll be heavy woollen industry, Huddersfield, Halifax, Bradford, that sort of area, and each little town would have a distinct characteristic, wouldn’t it? JK Well, I had an unusual link with those towns because as I mentioned I helped to form a cycling club in ’38. The background was in those days of course that I was a Roman Catholic. Now we had to go to Church on Sunday, and the problem was that the average cycling club, their times for starting runs were not geared to church services at all. So it meant that if we wanted to take up serious cycling we’d to spend half of Sunday morning chasing the club which had set off an hour earlier. So some of us got together and we formed our own club in Leeds. The essential part was we went to Church together and then we set off. Now some of the clubs had been started in Lancashire, so we tried to spread our activity and we did eventually have clubs in the heavy woollen district, in Bradford, Sheffield, Halifax, Huddersfield and so on, and in ’38 and ’39 it was one of my jobs for the national organisation that was being to developed to encourage parishes or groups of interested cyclists in these towns to develop their own club.

  • Dewsbury Station Plan
    Station Travel Plan - Dewsbury Introduction What is a Station Travel Plan? The Department for Transport defines a Station Travel Plan as: “A strategy for managing the travel generated by your organisation, with the aim of reducing its environmental impact, typically involving support for walking, cycling, public transport and car sharing”. TransPennine Express maintains Station Travel Plans for all 19 stations where they are currently the Station Facility Owner (SFO). Why Develop a Station Travel Plan? Up until March 2020 demand for rail continued to grow, with more and more people choosing to travel by rail each year. It is predicted that, post the COVID-19 pandemic, within the next 30 years demand for rail will more than double. TransPennine Express is at the heart of this growth, with double digit percentage growth in passenger journeys year on year, with a doubling of customer numbers since the franchise was established in 2004. With growth of this magnitude, it is important that alongside investing in new trains, operating more services and enhancing the customer experience, we are considerate of how customers travel to and from the station to access the railway network. Against the landscape of a changing culture towards private transport, with many millennials choosing not to own a car, and instead adopt solutions such as Uber, dockless bike hire and car sharing schemes, a Station Travel Plan allows operators to identify the developments which are required to keep pace with society. It also allows us to identify key areas of change, with the evident shift from internal combustion to electric cars and hybrids, we are able to set out plans for providing the infrastructure to support this shift.

I know what a strain this has been on all our Leaders and I am proud to have witnessed the supreme efforts you have made to keep the show on the road,. One off the few duties I have had to undertake as Chair of Cotswold Vale District is the scrutiny of Risk Assessments and I am greatly impressed at the amount of work all of our Leaders have put in and the detail to which they have paid attention in ensuring all involved remain safe, yet are able to enjoy the excitement of the event. It is disappointing, however, that I have received for this magazine only a miniscule amount reflecting what has actually been done. Not a single picture! It would have been nice to advertise it.

  • Interviewee John Keavey (JK)
    WRM0011: Interviewer W.R. Mitchell (WRM) Interviewee John Keavey (JK) [Start of interview: 00:00:11] WRM About this middle-class business? JK Yes well, as I understand it from recollections of my Uncles initially the bicycle in Yorkshire was mostly taken up by the middle-classes, and the sort of instances I’ve come across were people like Doctors, who would find it convenient to use the bike to visit a patient rather than get out the horse and carriage of those days. WRM Did this happen in urban areas as well as country areas? JK Yes, I think we tend now to under-estimate the ease of communication which the bicycle afforded in those days. I mean after all in the 1890s we hadn’t even got electric trams then, so travel must have been fairly difficult in the town. And I don’t think our northern towns ever had hansom cabs and so on to the extent that they had down in London. But my sort of family recollection comes from two brothers who became involved to a limited extent in cycling, this would be I would guess about the turn of the century, and they fired my ambition slightly. They used to talk of a midnight ride to Scarborough that was held every summer by the Leeds’ clubs, and they were mounted... I think by then Penny Farthings were more or less ‘out’. They’d be on what we call ‘the safety cycle’, something rather like a very heavy [unclear 00:01:51 – Reg Woodworth? Could mean a Reg Harris or a Holdsworth bicycle].

INTRODUCTION 1.1 This paper is intended to give a brief overview of the current state of the publicly-accessible resource available for the study of Industrial Archaeology within West Yorkshire (that portion of the old West Riding which formed a Metropolitan County Council between 1972 and 1986), and to frame suggestions for further lines of directed research in the area. Within this context, the definition of Industrial Archaeology is based on the current practice of the West Yorkshire Archaeology Service Advisory Service. Industrial Archaeology is therefore defined as the study of the physical remains of all aspects of anthropogenic activity for the period 1700-1950, with an emphasis on the development and use of technology and manufacture.
