Corley services

Corley services is a motorway service station between junctions 3 and 3A of the M6 motorway in the county of Warwickshire, England. It is close to the village of Corley, with the nearest city being Coventry several miles to the south, with Birmingham being situated slightly further to the west. A footbridge, made of concrete but now clad in green fibreglass panelling, spans the motorway to link services on both sides. History Construction At Corley Moor, a service area was proposed on in 1968 on a 36-acre (15 ha) site. Forte was awarded the £500,000 contract in May 1969, to open in late 1971. It is situated on the Ansty to Coleshill section of the M6, which opened on 1 July 1971. The site would have room for 400 cars, 150 lorries, and 24 coaches. The northbound side opened on 17 January 1972 (six months after the section of motorway it serves) and was originally operated by Forte. The southbound side would open possibly by late March 1972, when the M6 was fully open. There was mining subsidence from Coventry Colliery in May 1975, which closed the northbound site. In February 1975, Forte tried to stop the National Coal Board from mining near the service area, but could not. The northbound side reopened in late 1978. In 1979, Forte opened their first 'Julie's Pantry' at the site. In May 1980, when run as a 'Motor Chef', it was named in the top three UK service areas. Operation It is currently operated by Welcome Break and receives approximately 2 million visitors per year. It had changed to Welcome Break in May 1988. In early August 1983, Forte negotiated a deal with National Express Coaches for its London-Birmingham Rapide service to have a staging post at the service area, with a park-and-ride service into Coventry. The service began from late September 1983. The Midlands Today hosted a Children in Need event at Corley in November 1984. In the late 1980s, the company National Holidays also operated a staging post at the service area, for switching regional coaches. It was not just coach services that operated staging posts at the service area; drugs routes passed through the service area as well. West Midlands Police seized £1 million of heroin at the service area in November 1995. In December 2003, Corley gained a permanent Police Community Support Officer, jointly funded by Welcome Break and Warwickshire Police. Incidents On 4 May 1974 Liverpool football fans, travelling south to the 1974 FA Cup final, wrecked the gaming machines at the service area. Twenty-three Liverpool fans were arrested in August 1977, after stealing cans of drink from the cafeteria, in the early hours of the morning, being held at Nuneaton police station. In December 1977, all football coaches were banned from all Motor Chef service areas. Football fans had vandalised service areas and ransacked retail outlets, and Forte decided that this could go on no more; it would safeguard everyone else. On the evening of 16 November 1981, in a police operation against IRA bombings in London, a van at the service area was found to have gelignite. The driver was taken to Bedworth police station.

Corn Exchange, Newbury

The Corn Exchange is an events and concert venue located in the Market Place in Newbury, Berkshire, England. The structure, which was commissioned as a corn exchange and is now used as an events venue, is a Grade II listed building. History The first location where merchants could trade in agricultural products in Newbury was a guildhall in the Market Place which was completed in 1611. After becoming very dilapidated and an obstruction to traffic, it was demolished in 1828. The current building was designed by James Dodd in the neoclassical style, built in ashlar stone at a cost of £6,000 and was officially opened on 4 June 1862. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage of three bays facing onto the Market Place. The central bay featured a round headed doorway with an archivolt and a keystone while the outer bays were fenestrated by round headed windows with archivolts and keystones. All three bays were decorated by paterae above the openings and were flanked by pairs of Corinthian order columns supporting an entablature and a pediment with a quatrefoil in the tympanum. Internally, the principal room was a full-height assembly hall. In the late 19th century, many important celebrations took place in the corn exchange. A promenade concert was held there on 10 March 1863 to celebrate the marriage of the Prince of Wales to Princess Alexandra. A reception was held there on 26 August 1879 to celebrate the cutting of the first sod on the Didcot, Newbury and Southampton Railway by Catherine, Countess of Carnarvon, and a public dinner was held there on 12 April 1882 to celebrate the opening of the railway by Lady Loyd-Lindsay. The use of the building as a corn exchange declined significantly in the wake of the Great Depression of British Agriculture in the late 19th century. The building became an events and concert venue in the mid-20th century and, in May 1966, performers included the band, The Who: there was a serious disagreement when Keith Moon and John Entwistle came in late to a performance to see bandmates Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey playing with members of a support act. Moon suffered a black eye and an injured leg in the ensuing melee. Trading in corn finished completely in 1983 and, following a refurbishment costing £3.5 million, the building re-opened in September 1993. An independent charity, the Corn Exchange (Newbury) Trust, took over management of the building in June 2000. See also Corn exchanges in England References External links Official website
Cornelius Vermuyden School

Cornelius Vermuyden School is a secondary school with academy status for boys and girls ages 11–16. Located on Canvey Island, Essex, the school is named after the Dutch land engineer Sir Cornelius Vermuyden (1595-1683) who reclaimed large areas of fenland in England, and supervised the construction of the sea walls around Canvey in 1623. The school is a specialist arts and maths and computing college. History The original school was planned in the 1960s as Cornelius Vermuyden Comprehensive School by Essex County Council and in 1970 a tender was awarded to Higgins Construction for £320,000 to build the new establishment. The new school situated in Dinant Avenue opened in September 1972 and was set in 38 acres of ground. The school was granted Arts College status and pupils from the school were involved in the creation of a large mosaic on Canvey seafront in 2007. The project was funded by Essex County Council and the BP petrol company, and the results earned the praise of the chairman of Castle Point Council's environment committee. The school holds the Sportsmark award and the Specialist Schools Trust have recognised the school in their 'Most Improved Schools Club'. As part of the Essex County Council education review for secondary education on Canvey Island, Cornelius Vermuyden School was chosen along with Castle View School to stay open and were rebuilt as part of the Building Schools for the Future programme. Designed by Nicholas Hare Architects, the new buildings were built in between 2010 and 2012 and constructed by a consortium led by Skanska. The design was nominated for an award by RIBA in 2012. The school became an academy in November 2013.

It is the main shopping centre in the town, with over 40 shops, including Primark (its anchor store), Next, HMV, Waterstone's, WHSmith and Tesco Express. The centre is set over two levels and covers over 220,000 sq ft (20,000 m2). It also has a multi-storey car park with a 400 car capacity. Food outlets include a number of independent traders, as well as Costa Coffee and Greggs. Site The main centre comprises 58 retail units utilising a bridge link over Priestgate, creating one continuous mall at lower ground level and an additional lower ground retail floor. The property is freehold. It receives a weekly footfall of 125,000 people. Next, they pay an annual rent of £325,000 for their 22,000-square-foot (2,000 m2) store. History Building work began in 1989 following the demolition of existing buildings including the Pied Piper public house and the Co-operative store. One of the key phases of the building work for the two-tier mall was the pedestrian walkway over Priestgate. The centre's name was chosen in a competition by Durham student, Richard Blair. The Cornmill opened on 27 August 1992. Sections of the BBC sketch show The Fast Show were filmed there. In December 2006 it was purchased from Investream by the Moorfield Real Estate Fund for £84.5 million. Extension of the shopping centre with a Debenhams department store was planned for 2015–6 but was later cancelled. References

Cornwall Terrace

Cornwall Terrace (noto anche come 1-21 Cornwall Terrace) è un complesso di edifici classificati di Grado I di ville a schiera affiancate che si affacciano su Regent's Park nella City of Westminster a Londra. Si trova all'angolo sud-ovest del parco, vicino a Baker Street, tra York Terrace e Clarence Terrace, all'interno dello sviluppo del parco della Crown Estate. Cornwall Terrace faceva parte dello schema del principe reggente, in seguito re Giorgio IV, per sviluppare grandi abitazioni a Regent's Park.. Storia Cornwall Terrace fu uno dei primi edifici costruiti a Regency Park, e la prima serie di case a schiera completata del parco. Fu costruita, tra il 1821 e il 1823, dal promotore immobiliare James Burton, su progetto greco-romano di Decimus Burton e Sir John Nash. Dopo la seconda guerra mondiale il complesso è stato ristrutturato ed è stato classificato come edificio di I grado il 9 gennaio 1970. Nel gennaio 1975, alcuni gruppi hippie si trasferirono e occuparono l'intero complesso. La Divine Light Mission ha aperto un negozio di alimenti naturali. Più tardi, nel 1975, dopo che gli occupanti furono sfrattati, divenne la sede della British Land, una grande società di sviluppo immobiliare. Negli anni 2000, gran parte del complesso è stato ristrutturato da Oakmayne Developers, che ha trasformato 18 delle case in 8 residenze di lusso. La ristrutturazione delle otto unità immobiliari è stata supervisionata da English Heritage e dalla Crown Estate. Ad ogni casa è stato dato il nome di un personaggio illustre legato al sito. Architettura Le caratteristiche architettoniche conferiscono all'edificio un aspetto regale. Il piano terra è in bugnato, mentre i piani principali sono in ordine corinzio. Il blocco originariamente era costituito da 19 case, con le n. 20 e 21 costruite in seguito a partire dal padiglione sud. Il progetto originario prevedeva tre piani principali, un piano attico, padiglioni, mansarde e seminterrati, oltre a portici poco profondi, portali quadrangolari, architravi poco profonde, cornici del primo piano, parapetti balaustrati, quinte con finestre alla veneziana, balconi e ringhiere in ghisa. C'erano aste scanalate, capitelli ben proporzionati e una trabeazione, al n. 1, adornata con un arco a cariatide.

Corporation Island

Corporation Island ist eine Insel in dem von den Gezeiten beeinflussten Abschnitt der Themse in England. Sie liegt zwischen der Richmond Bridge und der Richmond Railway Bridge gegenüber dem Ufer von Richmond. Die Insel ist unbewohnt und stark mit Weiden und Pappeln bewachsen. Auf der Insel leben Reiher. Nur wenig flussabwärts von Corporation Island liegen die beiden kleinen als Flowerpot Islands bezeichneten Inseln (). Die beiden Inseln sind fast vollständig künstlich befestigt und bieten nur wenigen Bäumen Raum. Siehe auch Liste der Inseln in der Themse Weblinks Landscape Character Reach No 9: Richmond.

Corporation Island

Corporation Island is a small island on the River Thames in London. The island is between Richmond Bridge and Richmond Railway Bridge, where it forms part of the celebrated view from the Richmond waterfront. Its name seems to derive from its owners, the Corporation of Richmond, now the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. It is uninhabited and heavily wooded, and was formerly known as Richmond Ait. The unpopulated Corporation Island is densely wooded with white willow, crack willow and weeping willow as well as hybrid black poplar. These were planted in the 1960s after Richmond Borough Council felled the London plane trees that had grown there. The island may have changed its shape due to alterations in the tidal flows in the Thames following the construction of the New London Bridge in 1829, followed by that of the Richmond half-tide lock. Corporation Island is home to a heronry, a nesting colony of grey heron, which had 12 active nests in 2016. Just downstream from Corporation Island are the last islands on the Surrey stretch of the Thames, the Flowerpot Islands, which are two nearly circular islands covered in willows that were a single island until they were divided into two on the orders of the Duke of Queensbury in 1796. Subsequently, tidal erosion has reduced them to the two tiny islets, or eyots, currently visible. One of the last photographs of The Beatles together was taken in 1969 of the band sitting on Corporation Island. There is now no public access to the island.

Corporation Island

Corporation Island est une île de la Tamise en Angleterre. Elle se trouve près de Twickenham, entre Richmond Bridge et Richmond Railway Bridge, et fait face à Richmond, à Londres. L’île Corporation n’est pas peuplée et est très boisée de saules blancs, de saules allégés et de saules pleureurs et de peupliers noirs hybrides. L'île, comme d'autres îles voisines de cette partie de la Tamise, est souvent fréquentée par des hérons. Juste en aval de l'île Corporation se trouvent deux petites îles appelées îles Flowerpot. Celles-ci sont presque entièrement recouvertes de surfaces dures et n'ont qu'un ou deux arbres matures au centre de chacune d'elles.
