Leighton Reservoir

Leighton Reservoir is a reservoir which drains via the River Burn to the River Ure in North Yorkshire, England. It neighbours Roundhill Reservoir and is about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Masham. It takes its name from the nearby village of Leighton. Work on the reservoir was started by the Leeds Corporation Waterworks in 1908, and although the major parts of the building process were over by March 1926, the final cementation was not completed until 1941. The reservoir was allowed to fill with water over the winter of 1926–1927. A newspaper report from 1910, estimated that the final cost of the construction would be £437,000 (equivalent to £44,505,000 in 2025). Although the Leeds Corporation intended to build another reservoir in Colsterdale on the River Burn, this never came to pass, and Leighton Reservoir was constructed on two tributaries of the Burn; Pott Beck and Spruce Gell. Water from the reservoir is used to compensate for abstraction from the River Ure. Although not in Nidderdale, the reservoir is within the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Leighton is accessible for fishing and has a car park. The reservoir is on land owned by the Swinton Estate and they stock the waters with fish. Like its near neighbours in Upper Nidderdale, the construction of Leighton reservoir (and Roundhill) necessitated the building of an industrial railway to bring in materials for construction. A 2 ft (610 mm) 6-mile (9.7 km) railway was built from the north end of Masham railway station where a transhipment yard was located to transfer freight between the narrow and standard gauge lines. The line opened in 1905 and was closed by 1930. The reservoir has a mean depth of 36 feet (11.1 m), a surface area of 91 acres (37 hectares), a catchment area of 5,600 acres (2,260 hectares), and it lies at an elevation of 617 feet (188 m) above sea level.

Leighton Road Evangelical Church, Ipswich

Leighton Road Evangelical Church is a nonconformist independent evangelical church located on the Gainsborough estate, Ipswich in the English county of Suffolk. Gainsborough estate is an urban priority area council housing estate on the south east side of Ipswich. The church building was erected on land bought from Ipswich Borough Council in 1935. Of local interest is a large oak tree, around 400 years old, at the front of the church. Although the tree does not currently have a Tree Preservation Order on it, it is believed locally to have been used by 19th century Suffolk heroine Margaret Catchpole to harness her horse to, on occasions. The church consists on one main chapel building of the mid-1930s which has recently been extended at the back with a small Sunday school room and disabled toilet added. It is not currently a listed building. The church was previously known as Gainsborough Evangelical Free Church and Leighton Road Baptist Church, and is the only place of worship situated within the Gainsborough estate itself. The church has recently joined the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches. The current trustees of the church are FIEC Ltd.

Lemmington Hall

Lemmington Hall is an 18th-century country mansion incorporating a 15th-century tower house, situated near Edlingham, Northumberland, England. It is a Grade II* listed building. The original tower house built for the Beadnall family in the early 15th century was a four-storey construction which was reduced in height in the 17th century when Nicholas Fenwick (Mayor of Newcastle 1720) converted the building into a country house. Substantial alterations and improvements were made by architect William Newton in the late 18th century. In 1825, the property was acquired by William Pawson of Shawdon Hall, who served as the High Sheriff of Northumberland in 1826. However, the property fell into disrepair and had become a roofless ruin by the end of the 19th century. In the 20th century, Lemmington Hall was completely restored by Sir Stephen Aitchison (see Aitchison baronets), who acquired the ruinous property in 1913. In 1927 Aitchison bought an 80-foot-high (24 m) column, designed by Sir John Soane and dedicated to the memory of members of the Evelyn family of Felbridge, Surrey, which he dismantled and re-erected in the grounds at Lemmington. In 1947 the building was converted for use as a convent for the Sisters of the Sacred Heart, then later became a residential care home. More recently, the hall was renovated, under the ownership of the Ruff family. The Ruff family also own a selection of animals on the Lemmington Hall estate including peacocks and peahens.

Leopold Buildings

Leopold Buildings is a historic tenement block of flats in Bethnal Green, in the East End of London, England, in what is now the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It is located on Columbia Road, not far from Columbia Road Market. The flats were built in 1872 by The Improved Industrial Dwellings Company, the philanthropic Model dwellings company founded and chaired by Sir Sydney Waterlow. It was built on land leased by Angela Burdett-Coutts - then the richest woman in Britain and, for her philanthropy, nicknamed the "Queen of the Poor". The buildings were Grade II listed by English Heritage in 1994. Following years of neglect, the block was completely refurbished in a £3.5 million project in 1997 by the Floyd Slaski practice for the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and Ujima Housing Association, in conjunction with English Heritage.

Diamond (синхротрон)

Diamond Light Source — ускорительный комплекс, источник синхротронного излучения третьего поколения в графстве Оксфордшир, Великобритания. История Синхротрон был построен на территории национальной лаборатории Резерфорда — Эплтона, вблизи городка Дидкот. Первый пользовательский световой пучок был получен в январе 2007 года, формальное открытие королевой Елизаветой II произошло 19 октября 2007 года. Стоимость источника Diamond составила £260m. Название DIAMOND первоначально было предложено зачинателем проекта М.Пулом как DIpole And Multipole Output for the Nation at Daresbury, поскольку комплекс предполагалось построить в лаборатории Дарсбери вместо существовавшего источника СИ второго поколения SRS. Синхротрон Diamond стал крупнейшей научной установкой Великобритании за последние 40 лет, после протонного синхротрона Nimrod, который был в 1977 году реконструирован в источник нейтронов ISIS, в той же лаборатории Резерфорда — Эплтона. Комплекс Diamond производит синхротронное излучение в диапазоне от рентгена до инфракрасных длин волн. Энергия электронного пучка 3 ГэВ. Накопительное кольцо представляет собой 24-периодную структуру периметром 561.6 м. Инжекционная часть состоит из электронной пушки, 100 МэВ линака и бустерного кольца на полную энергию. В настоящий момент на источнике функционирует 14 экспериментальных станций. В дальнейшем предполагается организация до 40 пользовательских станций.

Leper Chapel, Cambridge

The Leper Chapel, also known as the Leper Chapel of St Mary Magdalene, is a chapel on the east side of Cambridge, England, off Newmarket Road close to the railway crossing at Barnwell Junction. It dates from about 1125. The chapel was part of the buildings of a leper hospital that stood a little beyond the outskirts of the city on the road to Bury St Edmunds. Parts of the east wall are original, but most of the rest of the chapel was rebuilt in the 13th century. It still retains many Romanesque features. In 1199, the chapel was given royal dispensation by King John to hold a three-day fair in order to raise money to support the lepers. Starting in 1211, the fair took place around the Feast of the Holy Cross (14 September) on Stourbridge Common which lies a little way behind the chapel and continues down to the River Cam. Stourbridge fair grew to become the largest medieval fair in Europe and raised so much money that the post of priest at the Leper Chapel became one of the most lucrative jobs in the English church. The job was also a sinecure, since the leper hospital had ceased to admit new lepers in 1279, and what few lepers remained were moved to a new colony near Ely. The chapel had no parish, so there was no need to maintain any religious services. Under legislation of 1546, the chapel was closed and its property assumed by the Crown. The town and university of Cambridge battled over the rights to the fair until Queen Elizabeth I ruled in favour of the town, reserving the university's rights to control weights, measures and quality of goods. The chapel was thence used only to store the stalls for the next fair and, in the 18th century at least, as a pub during the fair. After 1751, there were no further religious services held at the chapel. In 1783 it was advertised for sale as a storage shed. The fair was abolished in 1933, though it was later revived in the 21st century and is now held annually at the Leper Chapel. In 1816, the chapel was bought and restored by Thomas Kerrich. Kerrich gave the chapel to the University, which in turn gave it to the Cambridge Preservation Society in 1951. The chapel is a Grade I listed building and is maintained by Cambridge Past, Present and Future (CPPF). It is again being used for worship and it is now part of the Parish of Christ the Redeemer. The "Friends of the Leper Chapel" was formed in 1999 to promote use of this chapel for education, cultural events and worship. The chapel also plays host to a range of local cultural activities such as dramatic performances, and it is frequently used by the local theatre group In Situ for their performances of Shakespeare. See also Barnwell Priory, founded c.1092; a square stone-vaulted building remains St Bene't's Church, dating from 1033 Holy Sepulchre, Cambridge or Round Church, dating from 1130 School of Pythagoras, dating from around 1200 References External links Barnwell Leper Chapel on the CPPF website, with contact details for visiting the chapel.
Часовня прокажённых (Кембридж)

Часовня прокажённых во имя Святой Марии Магдалины (англ. Leper Chapel of St. Mary Magdalene) — здание I класса в городе Кембридж в Англии, то есть здание, представляющее особый интерес. Находится в восточной части Кембриджа у Ньюмаркетской дороги. Построено в романском стиле около 1125 года. Часовня прокажённых входила в комплекс зданий лепрозория, который находился на окраине города на дороге в Бери-Сент-Эдмундс. Небольшая часть восточной стены сохранила оригинальную кладку, большая часть здания была перестроена в XIII веке. В 1199 году от короля Иоанна Безземельного часовня получила королевское разрешение на проведение трёхдневной ярмарки, деньги от которой предназначались на содержание и лечение больных. Начиная с 1211 года ярмарка проходила в день Воздвижения Святого Креста — 14 сентября в местечке Стубридж-Коммон, недалеко от часовни у реки Кэм. Стубриджская ярмарка была одной из крупнейших в средневековой Европе. Она приносила такой доход, что место священника в Часовне прокажённых стало одним из самых прибыльных в английской церкви. В 1279 году госпиталь для больных проказой перенесли в Эли, и служение в часовне приобрело формальный характер. Она не имела прихода, и потому здесь не проводились богослужения. По закону от 1546 года, часовня была закрыта, а её имущество перешло в королевскую казну. Город и университет сражались за права на ярмарку, пока королева Елизавета I не вынесла решение в пользу города, сохранив права университета контролировать вес, размеры и качество товаров. Здание тогда использовалось только для хранения лавок для следующей ярмарки и в XVIII веке, как паб во время ярмарки. После 1751 года в часовне не было никаких богослужений. В 1783 году здание было выставлено на продажу в качестве хранилища. Ярмарка была упразднена в 1933 году. Её возродили в XXI веке, и теперь она проводится ежегодно у Часовни прокажённых. В 1816 году часовня была куплена и восстановлена Томасом Керрихом, который передал здание Кембриджскому университету. Последний, в свою очередь, в 1951 году передал его Кембриджскому обществу охраны памятников. Часовня снова используется для богослужений, и ныне является частью прихода Христа Искупителя. Общество «Друзей Часовни прокажённых» было основано в 1999 году для содействия использованию здания в образовательных, культурных и церковных целях. В часовне также проходит множество местных культурных мероприятий, таких как драматические спектакли. Здесь часто ставит спектакли по пьесам Уильяма Шекспира местная театральная труппа «In Situ».
