Embaixada da Coreia do Norte em Londres

A Embaixada da República Popular Democrática da Coreia em Londres é a missão diplomática da Coreia do Norte junto do Reino Unido. Sendo igualmente a residência oficial do Embaixador da Coreia do Norte no Reino Unido, encontra-se instalada numa moradia isolada situada no número 73 da Gunnersbury Avenue, no cruzamento da esquina norte com a Baronsmede, em Ealing, um bairro suburbano do oeste de Londres. É digna de nota por constituir uma das poucas embaixadas de Londres localizadas numa zona suburbana, afastada das áreas diplomáticas centrais da cidade. História A propriedade, dotada de sete quartos, foi adquirida pelo Governo norte-coreano pelo montante de 1,3 milhões de libras esterlinas em 2003. Em Novembro de 2014, realizou-se na embaixada uma exposição de arte proveniente do Estúdio de Arte Mansudae, a fim de coincidir com a visita de quatro artistas norte-coreanos a Londres. O antigo vice-embaixador Thae Yong-ho desertou para a Coreia do Sul em 2016. O embaixador à época era Hyon Hak-bong. Desde 25 de agosto de 2016 (2016 -08-25), foi noticiado que Hyon havia sido chamado de volta à Coreia do Norte na sequência da deserção de Thae. Segundo o que foi noticiado, o líder norte-coreano Kim Jong-un ordenou a execução daqueles que não lograram impedir a deserção de Thae. Choe Il foi subsequentemente nomeado embaixador em Londres. O regime adoptou medidas adicionais com o intuito de dissuadir os diplomatas de desertarem. Em Setembro de 2017, foi encontrado um embrulho suspeito junto à embaixada. Em consequência, as ruas e habitações da zona foram encerradas e evacuadas pela Polícia Metropolitana de Londres, que procedeu igualmente a uma explosão controlada. Após a explosão controlada, verificou-se que o embrulho não representava qualquer ameaça. Em Junho de 2026, a Coreia do Norte chamou de volta o seu embaixador junto do Reino Unido, Mun Myong Sin, que assumira o cargo no mês anterior, e rebaixou as relações diplomáticas ao nível de encarregado de negócios. A Coreia do Norte declarou que as relações permaneceriam a este nível até que a Grã-Bretanha levantasse as sanções que havia imposto, em Maio de 2026, ao Campo Internacional Infantil de Songdowon, o qual o Reino Unido designara como parte de programas juvenis dirigidos pela Rússia e envolvidos na deportação e doutrinação de crianças ucranianas. A Coreia do Norte qualificou as sanções de infundadas e de natureza politicamente motivada, ao passo que o Ministério das Relações Exteriores, Commonwealth e Desenvolvimento britânico se escusou a comentar a situação do embaixador.

Erasmus Darwin Academy

Erasmus Darwin Academy (previously Chasetown High School, then Chasetown Specialist Sports College) is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form with academy status in the Chasetown area of Burntwood in Staffordshire, England. History Chasetown High School opened in 1970. Its gym was attacked by arsonists in 2004 and had to be rebuilt. This work was completed in 2006, following which the school bought a field opposite Pool Road as an extension for more field activities. The road was closed and now is part of the school grounds. After the new gym was built the school gained Specialist Sports College status. The school converted to an academy in 2011 and was renamed to commemorate Erasmus Darwin, the 18th-century physician and natural philosopher who lived nearby at Lichfield. In 2022, the prime minister at the time Rishi Sunak visited the school. Facilities The school has a modern sports centre with a large sports hall, dance studio and gymnasium, a high quality, full-sized Astro-Turf facility, information technology rooms, design technology workshops, a Sixth Form Centre, a theatre with tiered seating, a Library Resource Centre, and science laboratories.

Eureka! (museum)

Eureka! The National Children's Museum is an interactive educational museum for children in Halifax, West Yorkshire, England, with a focus on learning through play. It is run as an educational charity and not-for-profit organisation. Eureka! is based on the North American model of children's museums, aimed at families with children aged 0–11 and encourages hands-on inter-generational learning. History The Museum for Children was formally constituted as a registered charity in 1985 by Vivien Duffield who was inspired to create the museum after visiting a children's museum in Boston in the United States. The museum is intended for children aged up to 12 with accompanying adults, and it was established with £9 million funding, £7 million of which came from the Clore and Duffield foundations with the rest from grants and private donations. It is located on former British Rail land next to Halifax railway station. Eureka!'s location was suggested by Prince Charles who thought the empty site particularly suitable for the museum and believed that it can serve as a stimulus for the regeneration of Halifax. Prince Charles opened the museum on 9 July 1992 when he was Prince of Wales and Duke of Cornwall and was its patron until 2002. The building design was led by Ken Moth of the architectural practice Building Design Partnership (BDP), and the exhibition designs were produced by an in-house team as well as a diverse group of designers who produced various elements of the museum – co-ordinated by Richard Fowler. Design groups included Imagination (the Me and My Body gallery) and Conran (original gift shop) and individuals included Tim Hunkin who created the Archimedes display at the entrance, and Satoshi Kitamura who provide illustration and cartoon signage for the museum. Galleries The museum has four main galleries: Spark Gallery – Opened July 2017 as part of the museums 25th anniversary celebrations; it is a flexible exhibition space All About Me – Opened in March 2013; a £2.9 million gallery, lead funded by the Wellcome Trust, exploring the themes of health, well-being and the human body Living and Working Together – A miniature town square (including a bank, fountain, eco street and shops) and house SoundSpace – An interactive gallery encouraging children to discover the science of sound and music, with the help of Orby the Alien SoundGarden Desert Discovery The Beach – possibly the largest outdoor sandpit in the North of England.

Euston House

Euston House was built on Seymour Street, now Eversholt Street, in London in 1934 as the headquarters of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. It was later the headquarters of the British Railways Board. History It was built between 1933 and 1934 as the headquarters of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway, to designs by the architects Albert Victor Heal and William Henry Hamlyn. The LMS had recognised the need for several departments to work closely together and the new building was designed to accommodate 1,300 people on 9 floors. Half of the cost of construction was met by the Ministry of Transport in recognition of the company fulfilling its obligations under the scheme for the remission of passenger duty. Construction of the building required the demolition of the disused City and South London Railway entrance building to Euston Underground station. The offices were opened by Hon. Oliver Stanley, Minister for Transport, on 12 February 1934. The building later became the headquarters of the British Railways Board. Today, it is used as an adult educational facility by organisations including City Lit. References
Farlington Marshes

Farlington Marshes is a 119.7-hectare (296-acre) Local Nature Reserve near Portsmouth in Hampshire. It is owned by Portsmouth City Council and managed by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust. It is part of Langstone Harbour, which is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and a Nature Conservation Review site, Grade I. It is also part of Solent Maritime Special Area of Conservation and of Chichester and Langstone Harbours Ramsar site and Special Protection Area. The marshes occupy an area land that was reclaimed from Langstone Harbour in 1771 and includes a larger part of what was formerly Binner's Island (the remainder of the island is now referred to as North Binness Island). The reserve covers about 120 hectares and features both freshwater marsh and brackish marsh. It is a feeding ground for overwintering Brent geese. During World War 2 it was used as a starfish site acting as a decoy for Portsea Island. The control blockhouses remain on the marshes. References
Farmington Institute

The Farmington Institute is based at Harris Manchester College, a constituent college of the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. Sir Ralph Waller is director of the Farmington Institute. The institute's aim is to support, encourage and improve Christian education in schools, colleges and universities. Origin of the Institute The Farmington Institute was founded by the late Hon. Robert 'Bobby' Wills, a member of the West Country tobacco family W.D. & H.O. Wills, to support, encourage and improve Christian education in schools, colleges and universities. The idea for founding the institute came to him during the World War II, when he was serving with the Grenadier Guards. He decided that if he survived the war he would do something to make the world a better place. Although severely wounded, he did survive, and so set up the institute. Aims of the institute Originally the institute was instrumental in setting up regional religious education (RE) resource centres and organising conferences for teachers of religious education. Wills then decided to offer Farmington Fellowships, a form of educational scholarship, which allowed teachers of religious education to have a term out of school giving them time to research a relevant topic at a university. The institute pays for all incidental expenses, including providing a replacement teacher in the Fellow's school. The Farmington Fellows present the results of their researches in an annual summer conference which is held in Oxford at Harris Manchester College. Having been awarded Millennium Grants in 1997 and 2000, the institute is now able to offer Farmington Fellowships to primary and secondary school teachers of religious education, teachers of RE to children with special educational needs, as well as headteachers. The institute also gives Fellowships to the British Armed Forces to undertake research into moral and ethical leadership. The Farmington Papers, provided free to members of the institute, are aimed at RE teachers and others interested in theological and religious subjects. Conferences and seminars are arranged periodically. The institute is ecumenical in its Christian outlook and takes a particular interest in developing good relationships with other world religions.

Farnham Hospital

Farnham Hospital is a community hospital in Farnham, Surrey, England. It is managed by the Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust. History The site of the hospital was originally built as a workhouse in 1791 and was mentioned in Sir Frederick Eden's 1797 survey of the poor in England. It was adopted by the local Poor Law Union in 1846. The hospital is notable for being visited by Florence Nightingale, who is alleged to have visited the hospital while living at Waverley Abbey House, before travelling to Scutari, Ottoman Empire in 1854. She presented the hospital with a travelling Holy Communion set, which is stored as an exhibit in the hospital along with a further gift of a crucifix. Two additional infirmary blocks were built in 1870 and 1900 respectively. It was renamed to Farnham County Hospital in 1929, then to Farnham Hospital on establishment of the NHS in 1948. It continued to be the main hospital for the area, until the establishment of the larger Frimley Park Hospital in 1974, which took over A&E services that Farnham had provided. The Friends of Farnham Hospital, a registered charity supporting the hospital by donations, was founded in 1954. In 1998, the hospital was identified as requiring improvements to provide better healthcare for patients. Construction of a new building started in 2001 and was opened in 2004 by the Countess of Wessex. The new building replaced some of the original 18th-century structures. Services The hospital hosts various medical practices and acts as a centre for blood tests, serving outpatients from Frimley Park as well.

Ferndown Common

Ferndown Common is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) on the edge of Ferndown in Dorset, England. It is currently owned by the Wimborne Estate and leased to the Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Trust (ARC), who manage it to preserve the site's rare wildlife. The site was notified as an SSSI in 1984. The area of the site is 64.7 hectares (160 acres), and comprises a significant amount of heath—primarily the dry heath Calluna vulgaris and Erica cinerea, but locally dominant are the damp or humid heath Erica tetralix and Molinia caerulea. Rare heathland species include the sand lizard (Lacerta agilis), smooth snake (Coronella austriaca), heath grasshopper (Chorthippus vagansand) and the Dartford warbler (Sylvia undata). Other local heathland species at Ferndown Common include the silver-studded blue butterfly (Plebejus argus), European nightjar (Caprimulgus europaeus) and European stonechat. In the south-east of the site there are several small ponds, which support at least 14 species of dragonflies, most of which are heathland species. Also resident in the ponds are large populations of the widespread, although in decline, common frog (Rana temporaria) and palmate newt (Triturus helveticus). The site is very flat, although there are several small clay or gravel pits, and an extensive network of boundary banks which date back to the Inclosure Acts of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. There is also a steep escarpment running down to the Stour Valley, which in the past was a well-used travel route. Some cultivation of the land was attempted during the Second World War, as evidenced by areas of ridge and furrow. Ferndown Common was designated as a town green in 2003.

Finchley Lido

Finchley Lido is a leisure complex at grid reference TQ266911, just east of the suburb of North Finchley in the London Borough of Barnet. Currently there is a swimming pool and leisure centre, film cinema, food restaurants, bowling facilities and large number of car parking spaces. Finchley Lido is extremely popular with the local population of Finchley at weekends, as it is one of the only cinema complexes in this area of North London. History The Finchley Open Air Pool was designed by P T Harrison, from Finchley Borough Council. The main heated pool opened on 17 September 1931 and stayed open until 11 November. The following year it was officially opened on 26 March, and on 22 April 1932 the Duke of York (later King George VI) unveiled a ceremonial wall tablet made of Staffordshire marble, which can be seen to this date. This tablet can now be seen on display behind the counter of Nando's restaurant, which was built around the original site. The main heated pool measured 165 ft (50 m) × 80 ft, depth ft 3 ins to 10 ft (3.0 m), with two fountains. This pool contained at most 456,250 gallons (1,727,094 litres) and had a diving stage of a similar design to Barking Lido, containing a two-stage platform. Finchley Lido was the first swimming pool to introduce gay nudist days and events; this was a pilot scheme which later introduced trials in Manchester and other boroughs in London. The whole site occupied 7 acres (28,000 m2), and there was a car park, with its own uniformed attendant (paid the equivalent of £3 per week in 1932). The main building also possessed a burglar alarm from 1932. The car park was enlarged in 2004 when the original cinema on the north side of the site was demolished following large-scale flooding. On 11 July 1971, the Lido had 11,962 visitors, which remains the record highest attendance in one day for a UK lido. The original 1930s outdoor pool, which no longer exists, was enclosed by an elegant colonnade of Roman Doric columns, with fountains to either side and was used to host the men's preliminaries to the water polo competition for the 1948 Summer Olympics. The original site with its main pool and children's pool was closed in 1992. In 1997, the exterior of the building was used as the imaginary South Downs Leisure Centre in Brighton, regularly featured in the CBBC series No Sweat.

Forster Memorial Park

Forster Memorial Park, is a public park in London Borough of Lewisham. It takes up the land between Bellingham Road and Whitefoot Lane, Catford – the park and surrounding roads form Southend or Southend Village. The nearest stations are Bellingham and Beckenham Hill. History of the park The land where the park now stands was donated by H.W. Forster, first MP for Bromley and later Governor-General of Australia. The Forster family had lived at Southend Hall from the early 19th century (now demolished, but located near the junction of Bromley Road and Whitefoot Lane) and had a large estate covering what was then a rural outpost of London in the county of Kent. The land for the park was donated in memory of H.W. Forster’s two sons, Alfred and John Forster, who died in World War I, and was formally opened by his daughter in 1922. The park was expanded again in 1937, when further land to the north was bought from the Forster Estate Company. Layout and notable features The park, which is accessed from Whitefoot Lane, extends to 17 hectares (42 acres) and is unusual for an urbanised area in that its central area of open grassland is surrounded by relict ancient woodland. This wood includes ash, hornbeam and oak trees. The woodland’s shrub layer has been found to include some wild service tree, a rare species in the UK that is almost exclusively found in ancient woods and hedgerows. The area has been managed since 1999 by the borough’s environmental taskforce. Their work includes removal of invasive species, such as sycamore, and restoration of a more natural landscape. The park includes a children’s play area, BMX track, cycle route and cycling proficiency area and a football pitch. There is an active Friends of Forster Memorial Park.
