Heath Hall

Heath Hall (formerly East Weald) is a Grade II listed large detached house at 59 The Bishop's Avenue in Barnet, North London. Built in 1910, Heath Hall remained a residential property until the postwar period. After various owners, it fell into dilapidation before being bought and renovated in recent years. Design Heath Hall was built in 1910 as East Weald, the London residence of William Park Lyle, son of sugar magnate Abram Lyle. English Heritage's listing for East Weald described it as "...one of the best houses in The Bishop's Avenue, a notable area of opulent suburban development, and embodies the affluent domestic taste of the Edwardian period." Designed by Henry Victor Ashley and Winton Newman, their designs for East Weald were exhibited at the Royal Academy exhibitions of 1910 and 1911. The house, built in an 'H' shape, is made from red brick with a green slate roof. The brick voussoirs within the "Romanesque-inspired arched hood" surrounding the front door of East Weald were particularly noted by English Heritage in their detailed description of the house. The architectural style of Heath Hall is influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement and references Scottish Baronial architecture. It is 27,000 sq ft in size, located in 2.5 acres of grounds. It has 14 en-suite bedrooms. Amenities include indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a home cinema, and an internal leisure complex with a gym, steam room and sauna. Heath Hall also possesses a wine cellar with storage for more than 600 bottles. Security features include a panic room. History The Daily Telegraph visited Heath Hall in November 2011 with two elderly daughters of Louis Bolton, an underwriter at the insurance market Lloyd's, who had owned East Weald from 1923 to 1947. The women had lived at East Weald as children, and recalled that the present home cinema was a scullery during their time, and that the metal gates were commandeered during the Second World War. East Weald was sold by their father after the war for the same price that he had paid for it in 1923. It was renamed Vernon House and used as a home for elderly blind people, operated by North London Homes for the Blind, in the 1950s and 1960s before its purchase by the Bank of China to house its London employees. English Heritage designated it a Grade II listed building in November 2001. In 2006, it was bought by property developer Andreas Panayiotou for £5 million; his subsequent seven-year renovation cost an estimated £40 million. Panayiotou renamed the house Heath Hall, and his renovation expanded the size of the house by a third. Heath Hall was placed on sale for £100 million in 2012, with its asking price subsequently reduced by £35 million to £65 million in March 2013. In 2015, it was acquired by Daniel Kretinsky, a Czech billionaire, who bought it for £25 million. To do so, he used a company registered in Jersey. In October 2016, Justin Bieber rented the 15-bedroom North London estate for £108,000 a month, using it as his London home whilst performing in the UK. References
Hebden Bridge signal box

Hebden Bridge signal box is a Grade II listed former Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway signal box, located close to Hebden Bridge railway station in West Yorkshire, England. Built in 1891, it is one of only a few remaining L&YR signal boxes to survive in anything like original condition. In July 2013, it was one of 26 "highly distinctive" signal boxes listed by Ed Davey, minister for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, in a joint initiative by English Heritage and Network Rail to preserve and provide a window into how railways were operated in the past. The signal box was taken out of operational use from 20 October 2018 when the line through Hebden Bridge was resignalled with control transferred to York Rail Operating Centre. References

History Holy Cross Preparatory School was founded by the Sisters of the Holy Cross Menzingen, an international teaching order which has been engaged in the work of education since 1844. A Christian ethos is taught in an ecumenical framework. Holy Cross Prep was originally the junior department of Holy Cross School in New Malden. It moved out to its new premises in 1971 to form what is now Holy Cross Preparatory School. Buildings The school is located on George Road in Coombe, a historical estate dating back to the 13th century which was previously owned by the Crown. In 1215 King John gave the estate to Hugh de Nevill, former High Sheriff of Essex. The school occupies a Victorian-era mansion, lodge and grounds once known as Coombe Leigh, and later Coombe Ridge House. Constructed and owned by the author John Galsworthy, it was completed in 1874. Galsworthy and his family lived there until 1884. In the grounds of the school is the ancient monument "The Ivy Conduit", part of an elaborate water system built in 1516 to supply Cardinal Wolsey's newly built Hampton Court Palace.

Holy Trinity Church, Tulse Hill

Holy Trinity Church, Trinity Rise, in the Tulse Hill area of the London Borough of Lambeth, is a Grade II Listed Building The parish During the first half of the 19th century, a significant proportion of the area now included in the parish was developed with substantial villas set in generous grounds. The parish of Holy Trinity was formed in 1856 from portions of the parishes of St Luke West Norwood, St Matthew Brixton and St Leonard's, Streatham. In 1886, the population of the parish amounted to 6,302 and was served by three clergy. The total (morning and evening) attendance as a proportion of the parochial population at that time stood at 23.2%. In 1901, the population of the area then included in the parish stood at 4,176. In the following year, there were two clergymen at Holy Trinity and total attendance at its services represented 22.6% of the parochial population. Based on statistics from the UK census, the Diocese of Southwark estimates the population of Holy Trinity & St Matthias parish was 11,000 in 2001 and 13,700 in 2011.

Hyde House, Buckinghamshire

Hyde House is a Grade II listed early 18th-century country house near Hyde Heath in Buckinghamshire, England. It had previously belonged to Woburn Abbey and was known as Chesham Woburn Manor. Hyde House was owned by the politician and barrister Robert Plumer Ward in the early 19th century. In 1811, Ward anticipated the dismissal of the government in the wake of the passing of the Regency Act, and looked forward to "...being at Hyde House in a fortnight. My garden, farm, plantations and library are the prevailing ideas, and every purchase I have lately made, whether books or pruning-knives are all with a view to my long wished retreat." Ward retired to Hyde House in 1823 to write his novel Tremaine, or The Man of Refinement. The writer and scholar Isaac D'Israeli rented the house during the autumn of 1825, and his son, Benjamin Disraeli, the future Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, later claimed that he wrote his novel Vivian Grey at the house before his 21st birthday in December 1825. However, that has been considered unbelievable considering the short time and the large size of the novel. Tremaine has subsequently been claimed as a model for Vivian Gray. Architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner, in the Buckinghamshire edition of his Buildings of England describes Hyde House as having the "proportions of a late c17 or c18 house hidden behind the stucco and sashes of the early c19." Pevsner also believed that some "antiquarian flourishes" such "heraldic glass, lattice glazing and shields of arms" might have dated from Plumer Ward's occupancy of the house. Pevsner noted that a long wing had been built on the house in 1929, and an early 18th-century staircase was also highlighted. During the Second World War, the patients of the pioneering plastic surgeon Archibald McIndoe recuperated at Hyde House. After the war, Hyde House was a school before being converted into apartments in 1965. It was subsequently bought in 2000 and converted back from apartments into a single house. The gardens at Hyde House featured in Country Life magazine in June 2012. The grounds of Hyde House also contain a Grade II listed granary and dovecote, which is now a summer house. It is believed to date from the 17th or 18th century. References
Kensington Central Library

Kensington Central Library is a Grade II* listed building on Hornton Street and Phillimore Walk, Kensington, London. It was built in 1958–60 by the architect E. Vincent Harris on the site of The Abbey, a Gothic house which had been constructed for a Mr Abbot in 1880 and destroyed by bombing in 1944. It was opened by the Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother on 13 July 1960. The building was designed in a traditional, English, renaissance-style. There were demonstrations against the project by those who advocated for the building to be in a modern style. The public library is within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and is managed as part of a tri-borough integrated library and archive service, alongside those of Westminster and Hammersmith and Fulham. On the south side of the library, facing Phillimore Walk, are two statues of a lion and a unicorn, both holding the Royal Arms of the United Kingdom. They were sculpted by William McMillan in order to reflect the "Royal" status of the Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. References External links Official website

Kilmorey Mausoleum

The Kilmorey Mausoleum, in St Margarets in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, is a Grade II* listed mausoleum in the style of an ancient Egyptian monument and has been described as a "fine example of an Egyptian-style mausoleum, with an unusually good interior". Designed by Henry Edward Kendall Jr. (1805–1885) and built, at a cost of £30,000, in pink and grey granite with a bronze door, it was commissioned in the 1850s by the 2nd Earl of Kilmorey (1787–1880) and contains the bodies of the Earl and his mistress, Priscilla Anne Hoste (1823–1854). Priscilla died of heart disease on 21 October 1854, and she was buried in the mausoleum, with the inscription "Priscilla, the beloved of Francis Jack, Earl of Kilmorey". When Kilmorey himself died in June 1880, aged 92, he was buried beside her in the mausoleum underneath a bas-relief in white marble showing the dying Priscilla on a couch surrounded by her lover and ten-year-old son Charles (b. 1844). The bas-relief was carved in Rome by portrait sculptor Lawrence Macdonald. Location and ownership Originally erected in Brompton Cemetery, the mausoleum was moved first to Woburn Park near Weybridge in about 1862, and from there to its present location in about 1868. In 1936 the grounds of the mausoleum were passed on in perpetuity to Hounslow Borough Council on condition that access would be maintained. Following changes to the Hounslow/ Richmond local borough boundaries in 1994, the mausoleum became the responsibility of Richmond upon Thames London Borough Council. The mausoleum today The mausoleum, including the enclosure wall, railings and gate, are Grade II* listed and are on Historic England's At Risk Register. The surrounding cast iron railings, which in contrast to the building's Egyptian revival theme, are in a Gothic revival style, are in a poor condition and discussions on sources of grant funding are underway. Situated in a wildlife site of about a third of an acre, the mausoleum is run and maintained entirely by volunteers, with assistance from Habitats & Heritage, and a contribution from Richmond upon Thames Council and English Heritage. Since 2001, the Mausoleum has been opened annually for events such as Open House.

Longner Hall

Longner Hall is a Grade I listed country house in Longner, Shropshire, England, some 2 miles (3 km) south-east of Shrewsbury in the civil parish of Atcham. It is constructed of red sandstone ashlar in two storeys to an irregular L-shaped floor plan with a plain tile roof and stands in a 170-acre (70 hectare) landscaped park. The grade II listed chest tomb of an Edward Burton, refused burial at the then parish church of St Chad's, Shrewsbury on his death in 1558, sits in the grounds. The hall was built in the Tudor gothic style in 1803 on the site of an earlier house by architect John Nash for Robert Burton, who was High Sheriff of Shropshire for 1804–05. The Burton family had owned the land at Longner since mediaeval times. The gardens were landscaped at the same time by Humphry Repton. The estate was inherited in 1841 by banker Robert Burton, head of the banking firm of Burton, Lloyd, Salt, How and Co (otherwise known as the Salop Bank) and Mayor of Shrewsbury for a period in 1835 and again in 1843–44. He commissioned the Shrewsbury architect Edward Haycock to alter and extend the house and outbuildings in 1838. The house is still (2016) privately owned by the Burton family, but guided tours are available on weekday afternoons, at 2 pm and 3.30 pm, from 30 May to 1 July, plus Easter Monday, Early May Bank Holiday and August Bank Holiday.(2016) See also Grade I listed buildings in Shropshire Listed buildings in Atcham References
Lund's Tower

Lund's Tower is a stone-built folly situated to the south-west of the North Yorkshire village of Sutton-in-Craven. It is also known as Cowling Pinnacle, Sutton Pinnacle, the Ethel Tower, the Jubilee Tower or, in conjunction with the nearby Wainman's Pinnacle, the pair are referred to as the Salt and Pepper Pots. It is listed in the National Heritage List for England at Grade II. History James Lund (1829–1903) commissioned the Keighley architectural firm of R. B. Broster & Sons to design the tower, which was built in 1887. Different reasons have been given for why Lund wanted the folly built: local residents refer to it as the Ethel Tower, believing it was constructed either to celebrate the birth of Lund's daughter Ethel – or her 21st birthday; others refer to it as the Jubilee Tower, believing it commemorated the 1887 jubilee of Queen Victoria. It is also known as Sutton Pinnacle. Lund was the son of William Lund, the owner of William Lund & Son, a large textile manufacturing business. In 1852, James Lund married Mary Sarah Spencer, the daughter of William Spencer, a wealthy landowner. The construction of Lund Mausoleum in Utley Cemetery, Keighley was also commissioned by Lund in 1895. Malsis Hall at Cross Hills and Ellerton Hall beside York were also owned by Lund. A new Malsis Hall was built by him in 1862 and became Malsis School in 1920. When Lund died in January 1903, his estate totalled £606,679, equivalent to about £62,468,366 as of 2012. Set on the top of Earl Crag, Lund's Tower is in the same vicinity as Wainman's Pinnacle, which is also Grade II listed but constructed in 1898 to commemorate the Napoleonic Wars. The pair of monuments are known locally as the Salt and Pepper Pots. The tower received Grade II listing in the National Heritage List for England in October 1984 under the designation number 1131781. Architecture Crenellated battlements adorn the eleven-metre tall tower, which is constructed from squared-dressed stone. It has a plinth and an unreadable plaque. The interior has a stone built spiral staircase of thirty-nine steps. There is also a viewing platform. Gallery References Notes Citations Bibliography

Millom Castle

Millom Castle ist eine Burgruine im Dorf Millom in der englischen Grafschaft Cumbria. English Heritage hat sie als historisches Bauwerk I. Grades gelistet und sie gilt als Scheduled Monument. Geschichte Um 1134 erhielt Godard de Boyvill, bereits Besitzer der Grundherrschaft Millom, eine Grundherrschaft auf dem Gelände der heutigen Burgruine. Um 1240 kam diese Grundherrschaft in den Besitz der Familie Hudleston, als Boyvills Enkelin in diese Familie einheiratete. John Hudleston erhielt 1335 die königliche Erlaubnis, sein Herrenhaus zu befestigen (engl.: Licence to Crenellate). Der große Turm stammt aus dem 16. oder 17. Jahrhundert. Er wurde 1648, im englischen Bürgerkrieg, bei einem Artillerieangriff stark beschädigt. 1739 befanden sich die Mauern der Burg in verfallenem Zustand. Der große Turm ist heute ein Bauernhaus.
