Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the frontiers of the Roman Empire, military settlements had a profound influence on local crafting traditions. Legions were not just fighting units - they contained a large number of craftsmen, and the fortress would have been a centre of manufacturing activity. A timber legionary fortress, for example, required vast numbers of nails, many of which would have been made by legionary smiths on site, and an army of thousands would require many more pots, shoes and tents than could be produced by local domestic potters and leather workers. But can all developments in local craft and industry be seen as a result of the appearance of the Roman army? The ten papers in this volume focus on craft production in Roman Yorkshire, and the evidence for the role of the army in local manufacturing activities. Several papers examine broad questions surrounding the organisation and scale of production in urban and rural areas. Others consider the local evidence for individual materials and production processes, including those associated with pottery, glass, copper alloys, non-ferrous metals, leather, jet, and building stone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lost Towns of the Yorkshire Coast: And Other Chapters Bearing Upon the Geography of the District From his preface to The Lost Towns of the Humber, it is apparent that the intention of the late J. R. Boyle was to publish a companion volume on the Lost Towns and Churches of the Yorkshire Coast in fact, I am given to understand the first chapter was actually put into type, and the frontispiece (hornsea Church) was engraved for the work, but it got no further. The proof of the chapter was lost, and I regret I never saw it. Upon many occasions I urged Mr. Boyle to complete the work, but as circumstances have prevented this, I have ventured to do it myself. I am well aware of the fact that the present work must lack much that would characterise it were it prepared by the author of The Lost Towns of the Humber, but there is a considerable amount of information now available which may not be so readily accessible to future workers. I am familiar with many aspects of our coast that, through the ravages of the sea, will be denied to succeeding workers. A number of cliff measurements, documents, plans and charts have also, in various ways, come under my notice, many of.

Download or read book Walking the Yorkshire Coast written by Chris Gee and published by PiXZ Books. This book was released on 2016-10-12 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yorkshire Coast is hugely varied. There are Victorian seaside towns like Filey, Scarborough and Saltburn, the very epitome of the classic English seaside resort. There are quaint fishing harbours like Staithes, Runswick Bay and Robin Hood¿s Bay. There are high chalk cliffs, so highly symbolic of the English coast. There are fine seabird colonies where you can find gannets, puffins, razorbills, guillemots and kittiwakes Grey seals haul out on rocks and from Whitby you can go whale watching in late summer in search of minke whales, harbour porpoise and bottlenose dolphins. Then there is the heather moorland, a blaze of purple in late summer, which rolls down to almost touch the coast on the edge of the North York Moors, where adders and slow worms can be found basking on a summer¿s day. There is evidence of industry too, past and present ¿ the steel industry, mining, quarrying, fishing and railways. And then there is Whitby, a place of legend, atmosphere and history, from where Captain Cook went on to explore the wider world and where Bram Stoker was inspired to write his classic Gothic novel, Dracula. Almost the entire coastline is accessible, with long distance coastal paths that follow the very edge of Yorkshire. Those accessible sections are certainly the most appealing stretches of this spectacular coast. Some of these paths are National Trails like The Cleveland Way or other more recent long distance paths like The Headland Way. Others are ordinary, everyday footpaths which give access to some stunning, secret places. In spring and summer the coastal footpaths are a riot of colour, the pink of thrift and red campion, dazzling white ox-eye daisies and cow parsley, bright yellow bird¿s foot trefoil and kidney vetch. Chris Gee explores the Yorkshire Coast from south to north. Generously illustrated, this companion guide to the Yorkshire Coast will provide added pleasure and knowledge for those who have walked it in whole or in part, or for those who still have this glorious treat awaiting them.
