Description

Yorkshire Ramblers' Club Journal Vol 1 (1), 1899, plus part of (2)

Yorkshire Ramblers' Club Journal Vol 1 (1), 1899, is much sought after because the club was extremely interested in caving and potholing, and wrote of the many trips and finds made. For the first issue, dated July 1899, this included 'The caves and pot-holes of Yorkshire' by S.W. Cuttriss, which formed an overview of the area and how the geology controlled cave formation. It was followed by an article by Edward Calvert on Gaping Gill, with a drawing of the main chamber and surface photographs of the entrance. In this, Calvert bemoans the delays applied to his attempting a descent and how Martel got there first. It then describes the first part of an article on his own descent. Other articles cover the formation of the club and various mountaineering excursions.

  • The Formation Of The Yorkshire Ramblers’ Club
  • The Northern Playground Of Europe
  • The Justedalsbrae: A Warning
  • Dents Des Bouquetins
  • Mountaineering Without Guides
  • A New Mountain Aneroid Barometer
  • The West Wall Of Deep Ghyll
  • The Caves And Pot-Holes Of Yorkshire
  • Gaping Ghyll Hole (Part 1)
  • Some Words From The Silent


This is accompanied by a partial copy of Vol 1 (2) for January 1900, which is missing pp123 to 134 (this covered part two of the Gaping Gill article). Remaining is a mention of Sell Gill Holes and a complete article with survey of Long Kin West.

  • The Growth Of Mountaineering
  • The Keswick Brothers’ Climb Scafell
  • Mountaineering In Norway In 1899
  • Miendalstind
  • Long Kin Hole (West)
  • Gaping Ghyll Hole (Part 2)


The two issues are offered together and priced to take into account the diminished worth of the second issue. These early issues, as single copies, are very scarce; bound volumes may be found online for several hundred pounds, so this is a bargain offer. The one set available is assigned to UK stock. If you require a different post destination please contact us to arrange a price.


VAT is not charged on UK publications. Orders to the EU are posted without tax paid: you are responsible for VAT and any other charges on delivery

STOCK ALLOCATION

Our goods for advertised for sale with postage costs included; selecting the destination other than the UK will alter the price, to take into account the increased carriage charges. 

If stock is limited, for example with a single copy of a second-hand book, it will be assigned to UK stock. If you require posting to an address outside the UK, you will not be able to place this order, even though stock is available. We regret this, but the software has limitations. If this is the case, please contact us to enable the options you require.

Please see our FAQs relating to deliveries, and the Delivery page linked from the bottom of each page, before placing your order if time is an important element for your order.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR EU CUSTOMERS

On 1 July 2021 the EU removed all exemptions for tax and customs duty on low value items posted from the UK to the EU, meaning that although VAT is 0% on books and magazines in the UK, VAT is charged within the EU and the tax (potentially plus a handling fee) now apply to all orders to the EU.

We are unable to post any items to the EU with VAT or other duties prepaid; as a small company, it is a long way outside our abilities to engage with an agent to do so. All items are therefore mailed as DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid). Ordering any item from Wild Places requires that you accept responsibility for paying the VAT applicable in your country and any other local charges on delivery.

To be clear: Wild Places will NOT cover any charges levied by your country; it is your responsibility to accept these when placing an order. We apologise for the situation, but it is outside our control. Refusal to pay charges upon delivery will not be accepted as a reason for refunding in full any returned items.

NOTE: Norway and Switzerland are outside the EU and orders will be filled as normal.
