Hampstead Norris Castle

Hampstead Norris Castle ist eine abgegangene Burg im Dorf Hampstead Norreys in der englischen Grafschaft Berkshire. Geschichte Hampstead Norris Castle war eine normannische Motte über dem Dorf Hampstead Norreys. Der Mound ist 25 Meter breit und 4,2 Meter hoch. Er besteht aus Kreide. Die Kontur des Gipfels des Mounds lässt darauf schließen, dass einst ein hölzerner Turm oder ein anderes Verteidigungsbauwerk darauf stand. Ursprünglich hielt man die Anlage für ein altes Hügelgrab, bis spätere Untersuchungen zeigten, dass es sich um ein normannisches Bauwerk handelte. Der örtliche Geschichtsforscher David Ford meint, dass die Burg nach der normannischen Eroberung Englands für Theoderich den Goldschmied gebaut wurde. Heute ist die Burgstelle von lichtem Wald umgeben und gilt als Scheduled Monument. Einzelnachweise
Hampstead Norreys Castle

Hampstead Norreys Castle was a Norman castle in the village of Hampstead Norreys, Berkshire, England. History Hampstead Norreys Castle is a Norman motte and bailey castle overlooking the village of Hampstead Norreys, Berkshire, England. The motte is 25 m wide, and 4.2 m high, made of chalk. The contours of the top suggest that a timber tower or defensive structure was built on the motte. The site was originally believed to be a tumulus, until later work confirmed its Norman origins. Local historian David Ford suspects that the castle may have been constructed after the Norman conquest of England by Theodoric the Goldsmith. Today the castle is surrounded by woodland and is a scheduled monument. See also Castles in Great Britain and Ireland List of castles in England Bibliography Grinsell, L.V.

Harris Academy Merton, formerly Tamworth Manor High School, and prior to that Pollards Hill High School, is a secondary school and sixth form in the London Borough of Merton district of Mitcham, England. History In 2004 Merton council decided that Tamworth Manor School should cease to be maintained by the local council but become an academy. This led to protests. The decision had been taken by the Labour administration on Merton Council and was supported by the local MP Siobhain McDonagh and Labour councillors. It was opposed by the then Conservative opposition on Merton Council. Rob MacDonald, an activist in the Socialist Party, brought the case to the High Court of Justice. He urged parents to contest the "privatisation" of education. On 27 July 2006 the High Court decided that the closure of Tamworth Manor school to make way for an academy should go ahead. Inspections When inspected by Ofsted in both 2012 and 2022, it was judged to be outstanding. The 2012 Ofsted report complimented the teachers, who understood their pupils and tailored their teaching to their needs. The 2022 Ofsted report states that 'leaders are ambitious for all.
