Footpath Erosion in the Yorkshire Dales National Park
I decided to look at what is the effect on footpath erosion because of
being in a national park. Footpath erosion has become a major problem
in the Yorkshire dales, the Yorkshire Dales Park Authority started a
project called Three Peaks project which is a counter erosion scheme.
The main problem is places at honey spots, which are most frequently
used because of the amount of people walking on them this is shown
photograph #24. It is shown here that walkers have to walk round the
path further adding to the erosion.
If Upper Nidderdale were to put in the national park they would suffer
these pressures and would have to make additional footpaths that are
hard wearing such as the ones in Malham but this would cause a blot on
the landscape.
One major factor is walker’s boots because they kick away and break
down the surface but this is by means no means the only factor. It is
not only the walkers that cause the erosion the bike and the heavy
footfall of fell runners who can also break the ground up.
It is not only human impact that makes the footpaths wear down, the
livestock has been a primary source of some of the most serious
surface on the surface because there feet break down the surface also
they eat all the roughage on the surface without this the soil breaks
down because there are no roots in the soil to keep the soil together.
The walkers come along and carry it of on there boots and is deposited
somewhere else.
The Yorkshire Dales National Park has set up schemes to prevent the
footpath erosion such as ‘the three peaks project.’ They have
introduced duckboards across the mud, this would stop the paths
eroding further but they look out of place and unnatural. They have
also tried to reduce erosion by replacing the peat with hard core,
this doesn’t look very natural and can be worn down again quickly but
this method is cheap but needs a lot of maintenance.
To start the dressing process, Victorian women had so many layers of clothing it all had to be placed upon them one at a time. The first layers consisted of undergarments such as items women of today would call underwear and socks. However, the Victorian women wore drawers as modern women wear underwear. Stockings; usually knit, cotton or silk, covered the lower leg with a garter to keep them from falling down the leg or revealing any flesh of the lower leg (Mitchell 17). Upon the upper part of the body a Chemise was worn to cover the skin below the corset...
