Royal Liverpool Golf Club

Royal Liverpool Golf Club er en golfklub i Hoylake, Merseyside, North West England. Den blev grundlagt i 1869 Liverpool Hunt Clubs væddeløbsbane og modtog "Royal"-designationen i 1871 fra Hertugen af Connaught, som var en af Dronning Victoria's yngre sønner. Robert Chambers og George Morris (yngre bror til Old Tom Morris) blev antaget til at designe den oprindelige Hoylake-bane, som blev udvidet til 18 huller i 1871. Harry Colt, en af verdens førende golfbanearkitekter, redesignede banen i begyndelsen af den 20. århundrede, og den er siden blev tilpasset med jævne mellemrum, hovedsageligt som svar på udviklingen inden for golfudstyr. På trods af klubbens navn, ligger den ikke i Liverpool men i den lille by Hoylake på halvøen Wirral, som er adskilt fra Liverpool af Mersey-flodens udmunding. Banen omtales derfor ofte som Hoylake. Den har én 18-hullersbane, som er en linksbane. Historie Hoylake's historie indeholder en del begivenheder, som indtraf for første gang i golfhistorien. Klubben var igangsætter og vært for det første amatørmesterskab for mænd, som efterfølgende udviklede sig til The Amateur Championship. Den var vært for den første golflandskamp mellem Skotland og England i 1902. Den var vært for de første Home International-matcher og den første transatlantiske match mellem Storbritannien & Irland og USA i 1921, en begivenhed som blev til Walker Cup det følgende år. Det er faktisk Royal Liverpool Golf Club's bidrag til amatørgolf, der har adskilt klubben fra andre klubber i England. Selvom det var The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews, der i slutningen af det 19. århundrede antog rollen som golfsportens styrende organ, var det i Hoylake at amatørstatusreglerne blev fremlagt. The Open Championship i 1930 blev spillet i Hoylake, og det var den anden del af Bobby Jones's historiske Grand Slam in 1930. En ung John Lennon spadserede en gang ofte over banen for at besøge sin kæreste og senere kone, Cynthia Powell, som boede i Hoylake. I 2006 blev The Open Championship afholdt i Royal Liverpool Golf Club for første gang siden 1967. I forbindelse med mesterskabet, fik banen ændret sin hulrækkefølge en smule, således at det gamle 16. hul (et langt par 5) blev 18. hul. Samtidig blev de gamle 17. og 18. hul i stedet 1. og 2. hul, mens det gamle 1. hul blev til 3. hul osv.

Royal Liverpool Golf Club

Royal Liverpool Golf Club is de een na oudste golfclub in Engeland. De club wordt ook Hoylake genoemd, naar de gemeente waar de baan ligt. Hoylake ligt ten westen van Birkenhead, aan de Ierse Zee op de westelijke punt van het schiereiland Wirral. Baan George Morris, broer van Old Tom Morris, heeft Hoylake in 1869 aangelegd op een terrein dat daarvoor van de Liverpool Hunt Club was. Zeven jaar lang werd het gebied dubbel gebruikt, door ruiters en golfers. In 1871 werd de baan uitgebreid naar 18 holes en verleende hun beschermheer The Duke of Connaught hun het koninklijk predicaat. De oudste baan van Engeland is Westward Ho (1864) in Devon. Toernooien De club heeft twee amateurtoernooien, die later beroemd zijn geworden, ten doop gehouden: In 1885 werd het eerste Brits Amateur gespeeld. Allen MacFie wint. In 1902 werd de eerste interland gespeeld, Engeland versus Schotland, nu bekend als de Home Internationals. Home Internationals Hierbij wordt door een Engels team gespeeld tegen een teams van Ierse, Schotse en Welsh spelers. Het werd later weer op Hoylake gespeeld in 1949 en 1993, en beide jaren door Engeland gewonnen. Gegevens tot 1932 ontbreken. Brits Amateur In 1885 wordt het eerste Brits Amateur georganiseerd. Het toernooi wordt nog steeds jaarlijks gespeeld. Na die eerste keer is het nog zeventien maal op Liverpool gespeeld.

Driffield railway station

Driffield railway station serves the town of Driffield in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is located on the Hull–Scarborough line and is operated by Northern, providing all passenger train services. History The station was opened by the York and North Midland Railway on 6 October 1846, at the same time as the line from Hull to Bridlington. The independent Malton & Driffield Railway company obtained parliamentary approval to build a branch line between there and Malton in the same year, but more than six years would pass before it was ready for traffic, the first train running on 19 May 1853. This was never more than a rural branch line, but the final route into the town, from Selby via Market Weighton (opened on 1 May 1890), proved rather more important as it soon became busy with holiday traffic from the West Riding heading for the resorts further up the coast. Today, though only the original coast line remains in use, the Malton line having succumbed to road competition on 5 June 1950, the Selby line falling victim to the Beeching Axe almost exactly fifteen years later (closing on 14 June 1965). Facilities The station is staffed part-time, with the ticket office open from 07:15 to 13:30 six days per week (closed on Sundays). A ticket machine is also available. Waiting rooms are provided on both platforms. Train running information is offered by digital information screens, telephone and timetable posters. Both platforms have step-free access. Services The station has a twice-hourly service in each direction to Hull and Bridlington on weekdays, with alternate northbound trains continuing onwards to Scarborough. Many of the Hull services run through to Doncaster and Sheffield or York via Selby. There is an hourly service each way on Sundays to Scarborough and Sheffield throughout the year (rather than in summer only) since the timetable change in December 2009. Notes References Body, G.

Bumble Hole Local Nature Reserve

Bumble Hole Local Nature Reserve is situated in the Netherton area of Dudley Metropolitan Borough in the county of West Midlands, England. This former industrial area now features canals, ponds, grassland and wooded areas. The reserve lies adjacent to the Warren's Hall Local Nature Reserve (which is in Sandwell Metropolitan Borough). It was declared a local nature reserve in 1996. History The area comprising the Bumble Hole Local Nature Reserve and its neighbour, Warren's Hall Local Nature Reserve, once was a scene of industry, including coal mining, clay extraction, coke furnaces and boat building. A railway (known as the Bumble Hole Line) ran through the area, linking Dudley to Old Hill. Location The reserve is located to the east of Netherton, about 1.5 miles south of Dudley, on the border with Sandwell Metropolitan Borough. Main access is via St Peter's Road, Netherton. Landscape The reserve contains areas of grassland, small wooded regions, canals and ponds. The Dudley No. 2 Canal runs into the reserve. Two short arms lead off from this canal: the Bumble Hole Branch and the Bushboil Arm. Bumble Hole Lake, a former clay pit, forms the largest body of water in the reserve. There is no visible border with the neighboring Warren's Hall Local Nature Reserve, so the two reserves effectively form a single visitor attraction. Facilities A canal-side visitor centre run by volunteers from the Bumble Hole Conservation Group offers information on the reserve, as well as refreshments and toilet facilities. There is also a football pitch. Boating festival The reserve (plus the neighboring Warren's Hall Local Nature Reserve) is the site for an annual boating festival. The event attracts canal boats every September and features stalls, canal trips and a funfair. References
Stott Hall Farm

Stott Hall Farm is located between the eastbound and westbound carriageways of the M62 motorway in Calderdale, England. The eighteenth century farmhouse was located on unfavourable terrain for construction, and so the motorway separates around it. As the only farm in the UK situated in the middle of a motorway, the area has been a point of public interest. Site The farm is situated in the centre division of the M62, in an area where the two directions separate for approximately 0.75 miles (1.21 km). The terrain is largely rough pastureland. It is separated from the motorway by crash barriers and a fence to keep livestock in and prevent out-of-control vehicles crashing onto the property. Although the farmhouse itself is about only 30 metres (98 ft) from the motorway, joining the motorway requires a drive of some 3.7 miles (6.0 km) via the A672. Despite the isolated location, the farm is home to a range of bird species including merlins, snipes and twites. History The farm was built in 1737 on Moss Moor, south of Booth Wood Reservoir. During the construction of that section of the motorway, which took place from 1968 to 1971, it became apparent that the terrain was unsuitable for both directions to remain adjacent, as there was no area of land wide and level enough to allow it. Some attempts to landscape the area resulted in minor landslips. As a result the road was divided between the Windy Hill and Deanhead cuttings, which coincidentally led to the farm being retained along with several acres of its land. Underpass tunnels needed to be cut anyway for use by the Calderdale Water Board and these provided access to the farm. A myth persists that the motorway was split because the inhabitants, Ken and Beth Wild, refused to sell the farm. However, the farm was actually owned by Calderdale Water Board at the time the M62 was built. In 1974 Calderdale was merged into Yorkshire Water, which is the current owner of the site. Since 1992 it has been worked by local farmer Paul Thorp, who moved into the property in 2008 with his family. In 2017 Yorkshire Water announced an environmental project to restore part of the site to peat bog. In popular culture Stott Hall Farm was the subject of a BBC Radio 4 documentary, a 1983 Yorkshire Television documentary and a short film in 2008. It is referenced, though not by name, in the John Shuttleworth song titled "The Man Who Lives on the M62". Sally Boazman, BBC Radio 2's traffic reporter, and CB radio users nicknamed it the Little House on the Prairie. In a 2007 list compiled from a survey of 1,000 UK motorists, it was one of the ten best-known sights on the motorway network. References External links
Tadcaster Bridge

Tadcaster Bridge or Wharfe Bridge spans the River Wharfe in Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, England. The road bridge is believed to date from around 1700. It is the main route connecting the two sides of the town and one of two road crossings in the town, the other being the bridge for the A64 bypass. Tadcaster Bridge partially collapsed on 29 December 2015 after flooding that followed Storm Eva, and reopened on 3 February 2017. History The first bridge is believed to have been constructed around 1200, using stone from Tadcaster Castle, and the current bridge was built around 1700. Each of its seven bays has a cutwater and arch supporting the roadway and parapet. Built of Magnesian Limestone, the bridge was widened in the 19th century on the upstream side. It was listed at Grade II on 12 July 1985. The bridge was temporarily closed after flooding in 2012. Partial collapse and repair Concerns for public safety led to the bridge closing to pedestrians and traffic on 26 December 2015. The town started to flood the same day as a result of heavy rainfall following Storm Eva, and on the evening of 29 December the bridge partially collapsed. It caused the gas main to fracture and prompted the evacuation of hundreds of residents. Without use of the bridge, traffic could cross the river only via the A64, which required a long detour. Pedestrians could cross the river using the Tadcaster Viaduct. In early 2016, Historic England carried out an assessment of the significance of the Grade-II listed bridge to inform its restoration, revealing that the bridge had been widened in 1791, expanding a structure built in 1698 that had replaced an earlier one. The bridge repair took thirteen months at a cost of £4.4 million. The provision of an adjacent temporary pedestrian footbridge was deemed essential. Following a refusal by Samuel Smith's Brewery to allow a temporary footbridge to be built on its land, an alternative site was found using land owned by Selby District Council and Tadcaster Town Council. Tadcaster Albion Football Club allowed access across its car park for people to reach the footbridge. The bridge reopened on 3 February 2017. The reconstruction work was funded jointly by the UK government, which contributed £3 million, and a Local Enterprise Partnership which contributed £1.4 million.

Upton House

Upton House est une maison et un musée situé dans le Warwickshire, ancienne propriété de Walter Samuel (2e vicomte Bearsted) et actuellement celle du National Trust. Histoire La plus ancienne mention de la propriété d'Upton remonte au XIIe siècle, sous le règne de Richard Cœur de Lion. Elle appartient alors à la famille Arden qui fait don d'une partie des terres au chapitre de chanoines du Saint-Sépulcre de Warwick. En 1452 et dans les années suivantes, un manoir est construit sur place, dont les fondations se trouvent sous la maison actuelle. En 1695, il est la propriété de Sir Rushout Cullen qui le fait agrandir par les deux ailes actuelles. À sa mort, il est acheté par William Bumstead qui fait modifier le bâtiment en ajoutant le fronton rompu sur la façade nord et la porte principale. En 1757, il est vendu au banquier Sir Francis Child puis entre dans les possessions des comtes de Jersey qui ne résident presque pas sur place et ne modifient pas le bâtiment. En 1894, il est vendu à Andrew Motion qui le cède finalement à Walter Samuel (2e vicomte Bearsted) en 1927 pour en faire une résidence de chasse. Ce dernier tient sa fortune de son père Marcus Samuel, 1er vicomte Birstead et fondateur de la compagnie Shell. Il fait réaliser d'importants travaux sur place par l'architecte Percy Morley Horder, remodelant largement la façade et les ouvertures. Il fait don de sa propriété et de ses collections d'art en 1948 au National Trust. Architecture et jardins Les jardins ont été dessinés par la paysagiste galloise Kitty Lloyd-Jones. Musée Le vicomte Bearsted a conservé au sein de sa propriété l'ensemble de ses collections d'œuvres d'art. Celles-ci sont principalement composées de peintures, de porcelaines et d'arts décoratifs. Cette collection de peintures contient des œuvres principalement flamandes et hollandaises (L'Adoration des mages par un suiveur de Jérôme Bosch, Pieter Jansz Saenredam), anglaises (William Hogarth, Thomas Gainsborough, George Stubbs) mais aussi El Greco et Jean Fouquet (avec un feuillet du Livre d'heures d'Étienne Chevalier).

Upton House

Upton House – rezydencja wiejska znajdująca się w wiosce Upton w Warwickshire w Anglii, będący pod opieką National Trust. Dom został zbudowany w wiosce Upton. Pierwsze informacje o nim pochodzą z XII wieku, kiedy to za panowania Ryszarda I należał do rodziny Arden. W 1452 roku powstał tu dwór, a jego fragmenty można oglądać do dziś w piwnicach budynku. Przez kolejne lata budynek kilkukrotnie zmieniał właścicieli. W 1688 roku majątek zakupił Sir Rushout Cullen, który rozbudował rezydencje, dodał dwa skrzydła a jego monogramy można jeszcze obejrzeć na głowicach z tyłu domu. W 1757 roku dom zakupił bankier Sir Francis Child dostosowując budynek do zamku myśliwskiego i w rodzinie Jersey pozostał do końca XIX wieku. W 1894 roku, został sprzedany. Kolejnym właścicielem był Andrew Motion, którego w 1927 roku odsprzedał dom lordowi Walterowi Samuelowi, drugiemu wicehrabiemu Bearsted. Bearsted zgromadził wielką kolekcję sztuki, którą wraz z domem w 1948 roku oddał pod opiekę National Trust. Zbiory są dostępne dla publiczności.
