Scarborough Station

Scarborough Station (auch: GCHQ Scarborough) ist ein Stützpunkt der britischen Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) (Geheimdienst). Er liegt mehr als 300 km nördlich von London in der englischen Grafschaft North Yorkshire unweit des Stadtzentrums von Scarborough an der englischen Ostküste. Während des Zweiten Weltkriegs befand sich dort eine wichtige Funkabhörstelle des britischen Geheimdienstes. Geschichte Noch vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg im Jahr 1912 errichtete die Royal Navy (Kriegsmarine des Vereinigten Königreichs) eine Funkstelle nahe Scarborough. Ihre Aufgabe während des Kriegs bestand vor allem in der Funküberwachung der in der Nordsee operierenden Hochseeflotte der deutschen Kaiserlichen Marine. Während des Zweiten Weltkriegs war Scarborough eine wichtige Funkabhörstelle (Y station) der britischen Government Code and Cypher School (G.C.& C.S.) (deutsch etwa „Staatliche Code- und Chiffrenschule“). Hier war eine der britischen War Office Y Groups (W.O.Y.G.) (Funkabhörgruppen des Kriegsministeriums) stationiert, deren Aufgabe es war, den feindlichen, insbesondere den deutschen Funkverkehr abzufangen und aufzuzeichnen. Beispielsweise die mit der deutschen Enigma-Maschine verschlüsselten und im Morsecode gesendeten Geheimtexte und die mithilfe der Lorenz-Schlüsselmaschine verschlüsselten geheimen deutschen Funkfernschreiben (britischer Deckname Fish) wurden in Scarborough aufgefangen und aufgezeichnet. Den britischen Codebreakers in Bletchley Park gelang die erfolgreiche Entzifferung und nachrichtendienstliche Auswertung. Die deutschen Funksprüche enthielten nicht selten kriegswichtige Informationen, die die Briten unter dem Decknamen Ultra zusammenfassten und für ihre eigenen Planungen nutzten. Auch die Funkortung gehörte zu den Aufgaben der Station. So gelang es wesentlich mithilfe von Scarborough, die Position des deutschen Schlachtschiffs Bismarck zu peilen und damit zu dessen Versenkung im Mai 1941 beizutragen. Nach dem Krieg, im Jahr 1965, wurde die Station durch die Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), der Nachfolgeorganisation der G.C.& C.S., übernommen und weiter als Horchposten genutzt. Während der Zeit des Kalten Krieges wurden hauptsächlich sowjetische Funksendungen abgefangen. 2001 bekam sie ihren heutigen Namen GCHQ Scarborough.

Ham Lands

Ham Lands is a 72-hectare (180-acre) Local Nature Reserve and Site of Metropolitan Importance for Nature Conservation in Ham in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames and the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. The area is very popular with walkers, nature lovers, and horse-riders. There is an unofficial (non Council) off-road BMX track near Teddington Lock. The site is a large area of grassland and scrub bordering the River Thames. The other boundary is mostly formed by Riverside Drive. The area is divided into two sections by the lagoon and Thames Young Mariners. The land belonged to the Earl of Dysart until the nineteenth century. In 1904 it was leased by the Ham River Grit Co. Ltd for excavation of sand and ballast. They constructed a wharf and processing plant where barges loaded. A canal was constructed through the towpath in the 1920s to create an internal loading lagoon, now the Thames Young Mariners. The gravel pits were then backfilled with soil from different areas of London, creating a variety of habitats which attract many bird and butterfly species. By the 1960s tipping was complete and the Wates estate built along Riverside Drive. The construction of Teddington Lock in 1904, now the limit of the tidal Thames, resulted in the raising of the towpath while the in-filled area was above the general level of flooding. The area north of Thames Young Mariners is still floodable. The flood-meadows have a wide range of wild flowers and there are many plants which are rare in London. Some of the more unusual plants found include meadow saxifrage, hemlock water-dropwort, yellow vetchling, hoary cinquefoil/silver cinquefoil, dittander/pepperwort, bee orchid, pyramidal orchid. Plans to build on the former gravel pits were finally abandoned by the Council in 1983. A survey of the flora was carried out by Nigel Hepper in 1985 and a report published in 1987 which recognised eight zones. References Further reading Williams, David.

Hazlegrove Preparatory School

Hazlegrove Preparatory School is a non-selective co-educational preparatory school at Sparkford, Somerset in the south west of England. Hazlegrove is part of a foundation which also incorporates King's School, Bruton - a senior school located less than 10 miles away in Bruton. History The school is part of a foundation created by Richard Fitzjames (Bishop of London) with his nephew John Fitzjames (later to become Chief Justice of the King's Bench) whose family crest incorporated the bearded dolphin which remains part of the school crest today. After only twenty years of existence, the school was closed with the dissolution of the Monasteries resulting with the surrender of the Abbey including all the endowments of the school to Henry VIII until 1547, and then Edward VI, his son. For ten years the school ceased to exist until a "humble petition" was presented to Edward VI requesting him to restore the endowments of the school. This was granted with the school being called the Free Grammar School of King Edward the Sixth. This Royal Foundation led to a crown being placed above the dolphin on the school crest. The original endowments of the school were re-granted to a Corporation that was to consist of twelve governors. This may be the first school to have a Governing Body with an unbroken record of the proceedings of the meetings of the Governors dating back to 1553. Hazlegrove Preparatory School was created when the Junior School was moved to Hazlegrove House, after World War II in 1947. A new building for the school costing £1.6 million, designed by the architects Feilden Fowles, was completed recently, the Fitzjames Building. Boarding Approximately 1/3 of pupils aged 7 to 13 board full-time at the school with the majority staying in at weekends. Learning support The school has a Council for the Registration of Schools Teaching Dyslexic Pupils accredited Learning Support Unit to help pupils with additional needs (e.g. dyslexia).
