Mulberry School for Girls

Mulberry School for Girls (known up to 1986 as Tower Hamlets School for Girls) is a secondary comprehensive school and sixth form for girls located in the Shadwell area of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, England. Approximately 1400 students aged between 11 and 19 years attend Mulberry School for Girls. The current headteacher is Alice Ward. The previous headteacher is Dr Vanessa Ogden CBE who joined Mulberry in 2006. Mulberry School for Girls is the founding school in the Mulberry Schools Trust. The name of the school derives from the close association the black mulberry tree has with the East End of London and its weaving industries; being particularly closely associated with French Huguenot refugees who came to the capital in the 16th and 17th centuries. The Huguenots knowledge of advanced French techniques revolutionised the existing East End weaving industry, leading to large scale planting of Mulberry trees in an attempt to support the thriving silk industry. The Bethnal Green mulberry tree is considered the oldest tree in the East End, and a sprig of mulberry is included in the coat of arms of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The Huguenot-vitalised East London weaving industry would later attract migrants from all over the British Isles as well as Jewish refugees from the Russian Empire and people from Bangladesh. The school has a mulberry-coloured (maroon or claret) school uniform. In 2006 Mulberry school was designated a specialist school for the Arts in English, Media and the Expressive Arts. In 2015, Mulberry School for Girls was visited by the First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama, who launched her campaign Let Girls Learn and gave a speech to the girls at Mulberry School. On 17 July 2023 the UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak visited the school and at a subsequent televised interview, announced the intention of the UK government to 'crack down on rip-off university degrees'. The school is part of a multi-academy trust supporting several schools in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. On the 10th February 2021, the Department for Education announced the successful schools for the national roll-out of teaching school hubs. Mulberry School for Girls leads the East London Teaching School Hub (ELTSH) which was launched in September 2021. In March 2024, it was redesignated by the Department for Education for a further four years from 2024 to 2028. Current Leadership Alice Ward is the current Headteacher. Dr Vanessa Ogden CBE, the CEO, was the former Headteacher of Mulberry School for Girls. She is also the CEO of the Mulberry Schools Trust. Dr Ogden was awarded a CBE in the King's New Year Honours List 2024. Student body As of 2015 British Bangladeshis make up all but a few of the students. Additionally, the overwhelmingly largest religion among the student body at Mulberry, as of the same year, is Islam. Academic performance As of 2015, about 83% of the students go on to attend university. Headteachers Notable pupils Notable people to have attended the school include: Rushanara Ali - Labour MP Apsana Begum – Labour MP References External links Mulberry School for Girls School Website
Mulgrave Castle

Mulgrave Castle refererer tre forskellige bygninger på samme ejendom i Lythe, nær Whitby, North Yorkshire, England. Den ene af disse er den "gamle" borg, som ifølge legenden blev grundlagt af Wada, der herskede over Hälsingland i 500-tallet. Den anden borg, (54.4935°N 0.7055°V﻿ / 54.4935; -0.7055﻿ (Mulgrave Castle (Norman castle))) caput i det engelske feudalbaroni Mulgrave, var en normannisk fæstning, der var aktiv indtil den blev ødelagt af rundhovederne på ordre af Parlamentet.

Château de Mulgrave

Le château de Mulgrave désigne trois édifices qui s'élevèrent sur le même lieu, près de Whitby dans le Yorkshire du Nord en Angleterre, à trois époques différentes. Premier édifice Le premier bâtiment aurait été construit par Vade, un géant, selon la légende et chef de la province suédoise de Hälsingland, qui construisit plusieurs fortins dans le Yorkshire. Deuxième édifice Selon le Domesday Book, le livre du Jugement Dernier, qui est l'enregistrement du grand inventaire de l'Angleterre qui fut achevé en 1086 pour Guillaume le Conquérant, un an avant sa mort, c'est Nigel Fossard qui fit édifier le château de Mulgrave et devint en 1086, le premier baron de Mulgrave. Le château de Mulgrave fut le fief de la lignée des Fossard, puis en 1197, le sénéchal de l'Anjou et shérif du Surrey, Robert de Turnham se marie avec Jeanne Fossard, fille du baron de Mulgrave, Guillaume Fossard. Ils auront une fille, Isabelle qui se mariera avec un proche de la Cour de Jean sans Terre, Pierre de Mauley, seigneur du Poitou. À partir de ce moment, le château passa aux mains des Mauley, barons de Mulgrave. Pierre de Mauley renforça la structure du château. Le château est construit à un point où la crête s'élargit en une plate-forme en terrasse polygonale qui mesure 90 mètres orientée est-ouest par 70 mètres orientée nord-sud. Le niveau du sol intérieur du château est de 7,2 mètres plus élevé que celui de l'extérieur. Au fil des ans, de nombreux contreforts ont été ajoutés à l'enceinte pour les renforcer contre l'effondrement vers l'extérieur. Durant la Première Révolution anglaise, en 1647, le château fut détruit par les Cavaliers des troupes de cavalerie des Royalist fidèles au roi Charles Ier d'Angleterre sur ordre du Parlement de Londres. Troisième édifice Le dernier et actuel édifice est le manoir édifié pour Catherine Sedley, comtesse de Dorchester et comtesse de Portmore, fille de sir Charles Sedley, 5e baronnet, qui fut la maîtresse du roi Jacques II d'Angleterre à la fois avant et après son accession au trône.

Mullion Island

Mullion Island (Cornish: Enys Pryven, lit. 'worm island') is an uninhabited island on the eastern side of Mount's Bay, Cornwall, in the United Kingdom. It is approximately half a mile (0.8 km) offshore from Mullion Cove, 1 mile (1.6 km) in circumference and the highest point is 118 feet (36 m) above sea level. It forms part of the Lizard Peninsula Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is within the Mullion Cliff to Predannack Cliff Site of Special Scientific Interest. Geography and geology The rocks of the island were formed 350 million years ago, with most formed in a fashion similar to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge today, where lava flows from an under-water split in the Earth's crust, and cools rapidly on the sea-bed as basalt, forming large rounded lumps known as pillow lava, many with a chilled margin. Mullion Island was formed by a separate (later) volcanic episode than the nearby Lizard complex rocks. The soils, developed from the underlying basalt and slate, has been highly manured by bird droppings, rich in nitrogen and phosphate, and sea beet (Beta vulgaris subsp maritima) and tree mallow (Lavatera arborea) are the dominant plants. Great black-backed gull (Larus marinus) breed on the island, along with common guillemot (Uria aalge), Eurasian oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus) and possibly razorbill (Alca torda). European shag (Gulosus aristotelis) and great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) were also on the island during a visit by West Cornwall Ringing Group on 16 June 2015. A visit by National Trust rangers in 2019 found the island littered with thousands of elastic bands. It is thought that the gulls mistake the bands for food while feeding in fields on the mainland and are later regurgitated by birds roosting on the island. Small bundles of twine and green fishing net was also found along with a dead gull with a 10 cm fishing hook. History Before the First World War the Mullion pilchard seine companies posted a huer (a lookout) on the island to watch for the dark patch of a nearby shoal of pilchards. The island was previously owned by the Lords Robartes of Lanhydrock who sold it to the Meyer family during the 1920s. The Meyers gave it to the National Trust in 1945. The island was used for location shots for the 2015 television serial And Then There Were None, based on a novel by Agatha Christie. References Media related to Mullion Island at Wikimedia Commons

Muncaster Castle

Muncaster Castle ist eine Burg über dem River Esk, etwa 1,6 Kilometer östlich der Stadt Ravenglass an der Westküste der nordenglischen Grafschaft Cumbria. Die Burg, die sich in privater Hand befindet, wurde von English Heritage als historisches Gebäude I. Grades eingestuft. Geschichte Der Ortsname „Muncaster“ enthält das lateinische Wort castra, das im Deutschen „Heerlager“ oder „Festung“ bedeutet. Man nimmt an, dass die Burg auf Fundamenten aus römischer Zeit errichtet wurde, die soweit sie existieren, einem „Castellum“ für das nahegelegene römische Fort Glannoventa in Ravenglass zuzuordnen sind. Muncaster Castle gehört der Familie Pennington, die seit mindestens 800 Jahren dort lebt. Das Anwesen in Muncaster wurde Alan de Penitone 1208 zu Lehen gegeben. Die ältesten Teile der Burg sind der Rittersaal und der Peel-Turm aus dem 14. Jahrhundert, eine Art Wachturm, der nur bei Festungen an der englisch-schottischen Grenze zu finden ist. Von 1860 bis 1866 baute Anthony Salvin die Burg umfangreich für die Barone Muncaster um. Einzelnachweise Weblinks Muncaster.

Château de Muncaster

Le château de Muncaster est un château privé surplombant la rivière Esk, à environ un mile à l'est de la ville côtière ouest de Ravenglass en Cumbria, en Angleterre. Il est inscrit sur la liste du patrimoine national de l'Angleterre comme bâtiment de Grade I. Histoire L'endroit est maintenant connu de manière déformée sous le nom de "Muncaster", apparu pour la première fois dans un registre d'église de Cumberland en 1577, mais son nom original, selon toutes les anciennes preuves et archives, est "Mulcaster", enregistré dans les rouleaux de pipe de Cumberland vers 1150 (également comme Molecaster et Mulecaster en 1190 et 1236 respectivement). Le toponyme "Muncaster" contient le mot latin castra, qui signifie "campement", ou "fort". On soupçonne que le site du château repose sur des fondations datant de l'époque romaine, qui, si elles existent, peuvent représenter un castellum pour le fort romain voisin de Glannoventa à Ravenglass. Le domaine de Muncaster est accordé à Alan de Penitone en 1208. Les parties les plus anciennes du château comprennent le Grand Hall et la tour Pele du XIVe siècle, un type de fortification de tour de guet unique à la région frontalière anglo-écossaise. Entre 1860 et 1866, Anthony Salvin remodèle largement le château de Muncaster pour les barons Muncaster. Sir John Frecheville Ramsden, 6e baronnet discute des modifications proposées au château avec Edwin Lutyens à partir de 1916, mais rien n'en sort et Lutyens conçoit le Muncaster War Memorial, construit en 1922, sur une commande de Ramsden. Les jardins de Muncaster comprennent des éléments conçus pour tirer parti des vues sur la vallée d'Esk et les montagnes. Il y a une volière contenant des hiboux et d'autres oiseaux rapaces de Grande-Bretagne et d'outre-mer. Le château de Muncaster appartient toujours à la famille Pennington, qui vit à Muncaster depuis au moins 800 ans. Jusqu'à sa mort en 2011, Phyllida Gordon-Duff-Pennington et son mari Patrick Gordon-Duff-Pennington (1930-2021) travaillent pour restaurer le château à partir d'une "relique en ruine" et en faire un lieu de tourisme et d'événements. Depuis 2021, les propriétaires sont Peter et Iona Frost-Pennington, avec leur fils aîné Ewan le "directeur des opérations de Muncaster". Il compte aujourd'hui plus de 90 000 visiteurs par an. La chance de Muncaster Après la bataille de Towton en 1461, selon la tradition, Henri VI s'enfuit au château de Muncaster où Sir John Pennington l'abrite. Henry donne à Sir John un bol en verre vénitien, avec un souhait: "Tant que ce bol ne sera pas déchiré, les Pennington de Muncaster ne seront jamais dominés". Le verre, qui est toujours intact et toujours au château, est maintenant connu sous le nom de "La chance de Muncaster".

Castello di Muncaster

Il castello di Muncaster (in inglese: Muncaster Castle) è un castello situato nei pressi del villaggio inglese di Ravenglass, nella parrocchia civile di Muncaster (Lake District, contea di Cumbria), e risalente al XIII-XIV secolo, ma rimodellato nella seconda metà del XIX secolo Da circa 800 anni è la residenza della famiglia Pennington, signori di Muncaster. L'edificio è classificato come castello di primo grado. Storia Nel luogo in cui sorge il castello, si trovavano in origine delle fortificazioni di epoca romana. Nel 1208, Muncaster divenne di proprietà della famiglia Pennington. La costruzione del castello iniziò probabilmente nel 1258, per volere di Gamel de Mulcastre. Nel 1325, fu realizzata la parte più antica del castello tuttora visibile, una torre eretta su delle fondamenta di epoca romana. Nel 1780, la hall del castello fu trasmormata in una sala da pranzo. Nel 1862, il quarto signore di Muncaster Gamel Augustus incaricò l'architetto Anthony Salvin di ricostruire l'edificio. Nel 1917 morì il quinto e ultimo signore di Muncaster, fratello di Gamel Augustus, e la tenuta fu ereditata dalla famiglia della madre, i Ramsden. Architettura Esterni Nel parco che circonda il castello, della superficie di 77 acri, si trova una terrazza del XVIII secolo della lunghezza di mezzo miglio che offre una vista sulle Lakeland Fells e sulla valle del fiume Esk. Questa terrazza fu descritta da John Ruskin come "la porta d'accesso al Paradiso". Nei giardini, si trova inoltre una collezione di azalee e rododendri provenienti da spedizioni sull'Himalaya degli anni venti. Chiesa di Muncaster La tenuta attorno al castello comprende anche la chiesa di Muncaster, risalente al XII secolo, ma rimodellata da Anthony Salvin. Interni Gli interni sono abbelliti da arredi del XVI-XVII secolo e da ritratti di membri della famiglia Pennington. Negli interni si può inoltre ammirare il celebre Luck of Muncaster, la coppa magica appartenuta a Enrico IV e donata alla famiglia Pennington nel 1464. Biblioteca Tra le sale più importanti del castello, vi è la biblioteca ottagonale, fornita di circa 6.000 volumi. Il soffitto della libreria risale al 1780. Leggende Sul castello di Muncaster circolano molte leggende legate alla presenza di numerosi fantasmi, in particolare nella sala degli arazzi. Tra questi, vi è quello del buffone di corte Tom Skelton alias Tom Fool, vissuto tra il XVI e il XVII secolo. Skelton sarebbe stato, tra l'altro, tra i responsabili della decapitazione di un uomo, di professione carpentiere, la cui unica colpa fu quella di essersi innamorato di Helwise, figlia di Ferdinand Pennington. Un altro fantasma è quello di una governante di Ravenglass vissuta nel XVII secolo e nota come la Dama Bianca ("White Lady") o Muncaster Boggle.

Grosvenor Bridge

Grosvenor Bridge (také často nazývaný Victoria Railway Bridge) je železniční most přes řeku Temži mezi Vauxhall Bridge a Chelsea Bridge. Ve skutečnosti se skládá ze dvou mostů postavených v polovině 19. století. Východní část byla postavena v letech 1858 až 1860 pro London, Chatham and Dover Railway a přiváděla železniční dopravu na nádraží Victoria. Jednalo se o první železniční most přes řeku Temži v centru Londýna. Západní část byla vybudována pro London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. Obě části byl v letech 1963 až 1967 rekonstruovány a původní pilíře jsou nyní zapouzdřeny v betonovém krytu. Na severní straně mostu se rozkládají čtvrti Pimlico a Chelsea. Lister Hospital a Royal Chelsea Hospital se nacházejí bezprostředně na severozápad. Na jižním břehu se nachází čtvrti Nine Elms a Battersea. Poblíž jižního konce mostu je možno zahlédnout dominantu elektrárny Battersea. Externí odkazy Obrázky, zvuky či videa k tématu Grosvenor Bridge na Wikimedia Commons
Grosvenor Bridge

Grosvenor Bridge, også kaldt Victoria Railway Bridge, er en togbro over Themsen i London mellem Vauxhall Bridge og Chelsea Bridge. Grosvenor Bridge består egentlig af to broer, begge bygget omkring midten af 1800-tallet. Den østlige side blev bygget af London, Chatham and Dover Railway i 1858–1860 for at bringe tog til Victoria station. Dette var den første togbro over Themsen i det centrale London. Den vestlige side blev bygget af London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. Begge broer blev ombygget i stål i 1963–1967, og de oprindelige udliggere blev indpakket i beton. På den nordlige flodbred er Pimlico i øst og Chelsea i nord og vest; Lister Hospital og Royal Chelsea Hospital ligger umiddelbart i nordvest. På den sydlige bred er Nine Elms i øst og Battersea i vest. Battersea kraftstation ligger lige syd for broen, og Battersea Park er i sydvest. Eksterne henvisninger
Grosvenor Bridge

Die Grosvenor Bridge, auch Victoria Railway Bridge, ist eine Eisenbahnbrücke über den Fluss Themse in London. Sie liegt zwischen den bedeutenden Bahnhöfen Victoria und Clapham Junction und ist die älteste Flussquerung für Eisenbahnen im Zentrum Londons. Insgesamt führen zehn Gleise über die 54 Meter breite Brücke. Unmittelbar im Südosten befindet sich die Battersea Power Station, rund 140 m flussaufwärts die Chelsea Bridge und an sie im Südwesten anschließend der Battersea Park. Der älteste Teil der Brücke entstand im Auftrag der London, Brighton and South Coast Railway. Bauingenieur John Fowler erhielt die Anweisung, die neue Brücke solle ähnlich aussehen wie die 140 Meter flussaufwärts gelegene Chelsea Bridge. Er plante eine Bogenbrücke mit gusseisernem Tragwerk. Die Bauarbeiten begannen 1859 und genau ein Jahr später, am 9. Juni 1860, rollte der erste Zug über die Brücke zum neuen Hauptbahnhof Victoria. Die London, Chatham and Dover Railway ließ 1866 durch Charles Fox die Brücke auf der Westseite verbreitern, um Platz für die eigenen Gleise zu schaffen. 1907 wurde die Brücke wegen Kapazitätsengpässen auf die heutigen Dimensionen verbreitert. Sie wurde dann zwischen 1963 und 1967 etappenweise durch einen Neubau in Stahl ersetzt. Weblinks Grosvenor Bridge.
