Eaton Square

Eaton Square is een beroemd langwerpig plein in de Britse hoofdstad Londen. Het plein bevindt zich in de wijk (district) Belgravia. Eaton Square wordt vooral bewoond door particulieren, terwijl aan het andere beroemde plein in Belgravia, het enkele honderden meters meer noordwestelijk gelegen vierkante Belgrave Square, vooral kantoren staan, onder meer de ambassades van Bahrein, Duitsland, Noorwegen, Portugal, Syrië en Turkije. Eaton Square werd aangelegd op grond van de familie Grosvenor en werd genoemd naar hun landhuis in Cheshire. Het plein is ongeveer 500 meter lang op 100 meter breed en wordt in de lengterichting doormidden gedeeld door de King's Road. Ook wordt het plein door twee straten gedwarst, hierdoor is de groene zone centraal op het plein opgedeeld in zes percelen. Rond het plein staat grote huizen die alle tussen 1826 en 1855 werden gebouwd. Het oudste gebouw is de St Peter's, een anglicaanse kerk die in 1827 voltooid werd. Daarna werden de huizen aan de zuidkant gebouwd door Seth Smith (8-23 in 1830, 24-48 daarna). Charles Freake bouwde in de jaren 1840 het blok 63-66. Thomas en Lewis Cubitt bouwden 67-71, 73-82, 83-102 en 103-118, waar nu de Belgische ambassade is. De lagere nummers werden pas rond 1850 gebouwd. Bijna alle huizen zijn nu opgedeeld in appartementen. Bewoners Tot de bekendste bewoners van huizen aan het plein horen: Nr. 1: George FitzClarence (oudste buitenechtelijke zoon van Willem IV) Nr. 17: Neville Chamberlain Nr. 37: Klemens von Metternich (1848-1851?), Joachim von Ribbentrop (vanaf 1936) Nr. 54: Vivien Leigh en Laurence Olivier deelden een flat Nr. 54: Stanley Baldwin Nr. 86: Sir Augustus Clifford (1788-1877), zoon van William Cavendish Tijdens de Slag om Engeland woonde de Nederlandse koningin Wilhelmina op Eaton Square 82. Omdat de situatie te gevaarlijk werd – ze bracht een aantal nachten door in een schuilkelder – verhuisde ze naar Stubbings House, waar ze tot begin 1944 zou blijven wonen. Op nummer 82 was daarna de Nederlandse Centrale Inlichtingendienst (CID) gestationeerd. Ook hebben verschillende Engelandvaarders daar onderdak gevonden, onder meer Rudy Burgwal, Sietse Rienksma en Kees Waardenburg. De Belgische regering in ballingschap vestigde zich voor de duur van de bezetting in Eaton Square 105, vlak bij de Belgische ambassade op Belgrave Square. Er waren ook bureaus op Eaton Place.
Culbone Church

Culbone Church, located in the village of Culbone in Somerset, is said to be the smallest parish church in England. The church, dedicated to the Welsh saint Beuno, has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade I listed building and the churchyard cross is Grade II*. History The church is recorded in the Domesday Book. The church is probably pre-Norman in origin, with a 13th-century porch and a late-15th-century nave. It was refenestrated and re-roofed around 1810 and the spirelet added in 1888. It underwent further restoration in 1928. Joan D'Arcy Cooper, psychologist, Yoga teacher, author of Guided Meditation and the Teaching of Jesus, and wife of the potter Waistel Cooper, was organist at the church and is buried in the graveyard. The graveyard also contains a war grave of a soldier of the Welsh Guards of World War II. Sir David Calcutt QC, a barrister and public servant, is buried in the churchyard. Services are still held despite the lack of access by road. Architecture The interior scale and decoration suggest Anglo-Saxon origins. The east end is restored. There is a small window, carved from a single block of sandstone, outside the north wall of the chancel, with a face on top of the pillar dividing the two window lights. This is probably also Saxon. The nave has box pews, including a Jacobean squire's pew for the occupier of Ashley Combe House. The church can seat about thirty people. The chancel is 13.5 × 10 feet (4.1 × 3.0 m), the nave 21.5 × 12.33 feet (6.6 × 3.8 m) and the building has a total length of 35 feet (10.7 m). The font sits on a victorian support but the bowl is far older possibly dating back to the Saxon period. The church has 2 bells with the older dating to the 14th century while the young one dates to the 17th. Access The church is passed by the South West Coast Path, but drivers must turn off the A39 opposite the village pub, and park where possible on the narrow track. There is then a walk of 1.5 miles (2.4 km) described by Simon Jenkins as "through steep woods of walnut and oak, glorious on a summer's day with the sea glinting through the trees, darkly mysterious and dripping with water in winter". In media The church has been used for filming including a television version of Lorna Doone; the video for Mike and the Mechanics' 1988 song "The Living Years", and 2016 BBC television series Coastal Path, with Paul Rose.

Culcheth Methodist Church

Culcheth Methodist Church is in the village of Culcheth, Warrington, England, at the corner of Ellesmere Road and Burton Close, a short walk from the village green. Foundation The church was founded in the 1950s as a home worship group in the rapidly expanding village as the village became a residence area to workers in the newly established Atomic Energy industry at Risley by Methodists from the nearby village of Glazebury, where a much older Methodist Church was and is based on the Warrington Road, Glazebury. Now the church has expanded to be the largest Methodist church in the local area. The church is part of the Leigh and Hindley Circuit, which is currently (circa late 2009~2015) under review and change. Independent charity In 2009, the church became an independent charity, registered with the Charity Commission of England and Wales. Previously, the church was a charity under the statutory regulations giving charitable status to all Methodist Churches. Delta shape, Δ, and bell The church sanctuary is somewhat exceptional in being of a triangular shape ("Δ") much like the sweets called "Toblerone" and being the first modern church since the English reformation in Culcheth. The older village area under its squire was recusant, and thus the Church of England church serving the village was outside the village at Newchurch. The local Roman Catholic church is also outside the village. Culcheth Methodist Church is now home to the old bell from Culcheth Hall chapel, the squire's private Catholic chapel, which has passed through the other churches to Culcheth Methodist Church for safekeeping, and is in regular use as it is rung to announce services and continuation of worship in many forms in the village. For safety and proof of theft, all metal and equipment within the church is marked with "Smartwater" for forensic tracing. [Edit 20200906] The bell is no longer hung in the church, but has disappeared in the refurbishment to enlarge the foyer, and the inability of Methodist Organisation to accept risk of it falling or hurting someone if they bumped into it.

Culford Park

Culford Park in Culford, Suffolk, England, is a country house that is the former seat of the Bacon, Cornwallis and Cadogan families, and now the home of Culford School. History of the Park From at least 1429 the Coote family had lived at Culford and in 1524 Christopher Coote was lord of the manor. In 1540 Culford was granted by the Crown to the Bacon family and in 1591 Sir Nicholas Bacon built a red-brick hall on the same site as the present house. The estate passed to the Cornwallis family in 1660 and during the middle of the 18th century 'T Wright' (possibly Thomas Wright (1711-86), the landscape gardener) was employed. Wright produced a map of the park dated 1742 which shows a formal landscape of avenues, rides and vistas, through geometrically shaped blocks of woodland. Between 1790 and 1796 Samuel Wyatt was commissioned to remodel the house for the first Marquis Cornwallis and in 1791 Humphry Repton (1752-1818) provided advice on landscaping the park, preparing a Red Book in 1792 (Williamson 1993). The estate remained in the Cornwallis family until the second Marquess died in 1823, by which time it had been greatly extended. Culford was sold the following year to Richard Benyon De Beauvoir and an estate map of 1834 shows the major expansion of the designed landscape on all boundaries. From circa 1839 the Rev Edward Benyon continued to embellish the estate. In 1889 the estate was sold again, this time to the fifth Earl Cadogan who commissioned the architect William Young to remodel the house in the Italian style. New stables were built, the gardens were altered and considerable additions made to the village. Following the death of the sixth Earl in 1933 the estate was sold. The core of the park, together with the house, became the home of Culford School (bought 1935) in whose hands it remain today. Iron bridge Crossing the lake to West of the Hall is an iron bridge constructed by Samuel Wyatt c.1804. The design is closely based on a bridge patented by Wyatt in 1800 and is made of channelled granite abutments from which five tubular cast-iron sections repeated six times form the 60ft span, the largest of the eight surviving cast iron bridges built between 1790 - 1810. The 80 tons of iron castings were produced by Hawks and Co of Gateshead at a cost of £1,457. The bridge is of exceptional interest as one of the earliest bridges with an unmodified cast-iron structure to survive, and is the earliest known example with hollow ribs. The structure received a Grade I listing on 15 May 1996. External links Historic England. "Details from listed building database (1031236)". National Heritage List for England. Historic England.

Culloden Tower

The Culloden Tower was built as a parkland ornament or folly in about 1746 on the estate of John Yorke MP, at Richmond, North Yorkshire. It was built on the site of an earlier pele tower, the remains of which possibly form the rectangular base. It is also known as The Temple or The Cumberland Temple, in celebration of the victorious Duke of Cumberland's army over the forces of the pretender Prince Charles Edward Stuart at the battle of Culloden in 1746. The estate is now known as Temple Grounds. The tower was most probably designed by Daniel Garrett and comprises four storeys and a roof terrace linked by a small spiral staircase. The estate, comprising Yorke House, was demolished in 1823, and the remaining buildings and parklands, including the tower, became part of Temple View. The isolated position of the tower meant that it was used less and less, and was increasingly subject to vandalism and theft. The tower was saved in 1981 by the Landmark Trust, who undertook a full restoration of the property. It is currently available as a holiday let. The tower is octagonal on a square base, with a staircase projecting on the west side. The windows are pointed, and there is a band of blind ogee arches between the first and second floor windows. Inside there are two main rooms, each occupying a whole floor, and thus octagonal. The first floor room has rich Gothick ornamentation, in particular the chimneypiece. The room has a domed plaster vault. The second floor room is more classical in its detail.

Cullompton services

Cullompton services is a motorway service station on the M5 motorway near Exeter. It is owned by Extra. It has a McDonald's restaurant which is franchised and offers table service, a small WHSmith and a Costa Coffee which is owned by Moto Hospitality. There is also a Shell petrol station nearby. Location The services are situated on a narrow strip of land between the Bristol to Exeter railway line and the motorway at junction 28, and are accessible from the M5, A373 and B3181 roads. The junction at the southbound exit slip road is a very simple design with low traffic capacity. Unusually the service area is signed from the northbound carriageway but not from the southbound one, to reduce congestion at the low capacity service station, although it is readily accessible from both directions. History The site opened in 1999. A Little Chef used to operate at this location, but was closed in 2003. In 2006 the service area was criticised by Which? magazine as being the worst in the country. The 2019 Motorway Services User Survey found that Cullompton was in the bottom five motorway services in the UK for customer satisfaction. In June 2025, it has been reported that Cullompton railway station will be built close to the service station. References External links Official website

Cumberland Infirmary

Cumberland Infirmary is a hospital in Carlisle, Cumbria, England. It is managed by the North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust. History The original Cumberland Infirmary is a Grade II* listed building which was designed by Richard Tattersall and constructed by Messrs Robinson and Bennet, contractors of Preston, between 1830 and 1832. A new wing was opened by the Countess of Lonsdale in October 1911. The founder of the Roper-Logan-Tierney nursing process, Nancy Roper, worked as senior nurse tutor at the hospital in the 1950s. A further extension was opened by Princess Anne in 1975. The present Cumberland Infirmary was procured under a Private Finance Initiative contract in 1997, the first hospital to be bond financed. Health Management (Carlisle) plc, a 50/50 dedicated joint venture company formed by AMEC and Interserve (Facilities Management) Ltd was given a 45-year concession period. The hospital, which was built by AMEC, cost £65m to construct. The new hospital consolidating the operations of three previous hospitals, namely the previous Cumberland Infirmary, the Carlisle City General Hospital and the Carlisle City Maternity Hospital. The hospital was officially opened by British Prime Minister Tony Blair, on 16 June 2000. In 2015 a report commissioned by North Cumbria University Hospitals NHS Trust found that the fire proofing materials installed did not meet the required protection standard to allow for safe evacuation and prevent a fire from spreading across the building. It was described by the secretary of Cumbria’s Fire Brigades Union as "one of Carlisle’s biggest fire risks". The Trust said that this was not the first time they had uncovered major flaws in the PFI scheme. In 2021, a new cancer centre was opened on the site, with services transitioning to Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. Notable staff Emily 'Margaret' Cummins, R.R.C. (1866-1934). Cummins trained at The London Hospital under Eva Luckes. In 1903 she was appointed as matron of Cumberland Infirmary in Carlisle. In 1911 she left following her appointment as matron of the Liverpool Royal Infirmary. Incidents On 2 June 2010, the hospital's Accident and Emergency department was put on full incident standby in the aftermath of the Cumbria shootings.
