Rydal Mount

Rydal Mount is a house in the small village of Rydal, Cumbria, near Ambleside in the English Lake District. It was the home of the poet William Wordsworth from 1813 until his death in 1850, and his sister, the author, poet, and diarist Dorothy Wordsworth, until her death in 1855. It is currently operated as a writer's home museum. History Wordsworth was born in Cockermouth in Cumberland in 1770, and knew the Lake District well from his childhood. He moved away to study at the University of Cambridge in 1787, and then travelled in Britain and continental Europe for 12 years. He spent over 8 years at Dove Cottage in nearby Grasmere from 1799 to 1808, but was forced to move to accommodate his growing family and many visitors. After a period in Allan Bank in Grasmere, the Wordsworths moved to Rydal Mount in 1813; it remained their home until their deaths. Both Grasmere and Windermere lakes can be seen from the hillside grounds of Rydal Mount. William designed the layout of the gardens at Rydal, and he often said that those grounds were his office as opposed to the spacious office/writing room in his house. On the high side of the grounds, tucked away from the main house, but overlooking both the grounds and the two nearby lakes, he built the "Writing Hut" where he spent most of his writing time. This hut consisted merely of a bench with a small roof, but it provided shelter from the frequent rains and escape from the house. He frequently was visited by Samuel Taylor Coleridge who would walk down from his home in Keswick. Wordsworth died in 1850 and Mary in 1859. Rydal Mount was acquired in 1969 by Mary Henderson (née Wordsworth), William's great-great granddaughter, and it was opened to the public in 1970. In 2025 its owners put Rydal Mount on the market. In 2026 it was purchased by the Wordsworth Trust. Rydal Mount is a Grade I listed building.

Rydal Mount

Rydal Mount est une maison dans le petit village de Rydal, près d'Ambleside dans le Lake District anglais. Elle est surtout connue comme la maison du poète William Wordsworth de 1813 à sa mort en 1850. Elle est actuellement un musée dédié à l'écrivain. Histoire Wordsworth est né à Cockermouth dans le Cumberland en 1770 et connait bien le Lake District depuis son enfance. Il déménage pour étudier à l'Université de Cambridge en 1787, puis voyage en Grande-Bretagne et en Europe continentale pendant 12 ans. Il passe plus de 8 ans à Dove Cottage dans la ville voisine de Grasmere de 1799 à 1808, mais est contraint de déménager pour accueillir sa famille grandissante et de nombreux visiteurs. Après une période à Allan Bank à Grasmere, les Wordsworth déménagent à Rydal Mount en 1813. Les lacs Grasmere et Windermere sont visibles depuis les terrains à flanc de colline de Rydal Mount. William conçoit l'aménagement des jardins de Rydal, et il a souvent dit que ces terrains étaient son bureau par opposition au spacieux bureau/salle d'écriture de sa maison. Sur le côté élevé du terrain, à l'écart de la maison principale, mais surplombant à la fois le terrain et les deux lacs à proximité, il construit la « cabane d'écriture » où il passe la plupart de son temps à écrire. Cette hutte se compose simplement d'un banc avec un petit toit, mais elle offre un abri contre les pluies fréquentes et une évasion hors de la maison. Il y vit jusqu'à sa mort à l'âge de 80 ans, et il y reçoit fréquemment la visite de Samuel Taylor Coleridge qui descend de chez lui à Keswick. Les Wordsworth louent cette propriété pendant 46 ans, après la mort de William en 1850 jusqu'au décès de sa femme, Mary, en 1859. Rydal Mount est acquis en 1969 par Mary Henderson (née Wordsworth), l'arrière-arrière-petite-fille de William. Elle reste la propriété de la famille Wordsworth et est ouverte au public depuis 1970.

Rydal Mount

Rydal Mount è una casa vicino Ambleside nel Lake District. È meglio nota per essere stata la casa del poeta William Wordsworth dal 1813 fino alla sua morte nel 1850. William Wordsworth nacque a Cockermouth nella regione di Cumberland nel 1770, e conosceva bene il Lake District sin dalla sua infanzia. Si trasferì all'Università di Cambridge nel 1787, e viaggiò in Britannia e in Europa per 12 anni. Passò circa 8 anni al Dove Cottage nella vicina Grasmere dal 1799 al 1808, ma fu costretto a trasferirsi in una casa più grande per esigenze di famiglia. Dopo un periodo ad Allan Bank a Grasmere, Wordsworth si trasferì a Rydal Mount nel 1813. Dalla casa si possono vedere sia il Lago di Grasmere sia il Lago di Windermere. William progettò il giardino di Rydal, e diceva spesso che si trattava del suo ufficio al di fuori della casa, in contrapposizione al suo studio che era all'interno. Nella parte alta del giardino, nascosto dalla casa principale, ma con la vista su entrambi i terreni e i due vicini laghi, costruì il "Rifugio per scrivere" (Writing Hut) dove dedicava gran parte del suo tempo alla scrittura. Questa capanna consisteva semplicemente in un banco con un piccolo tetto, ma forniva riparo dalle piogge frequenti e una "fuga" dalla casa. Visse il resto della sua vita qui, fino alla morte avvenuta all'età di 80 anni. Inoltre qui venne spesso in visita il suo amico Samuel Taylor Coleridge che aveva preso casa a Keswick. I Wordsworth continuarono la loro proprietà per 46 anni, a seguito della morte di William nel 1850 e di quella della moglie Mary nel 1859. Rydal Mount fu acquistata nel 1969 da Mary Henderson, pro-nipote di William. Ancora oggi è di proprietà della famiglia Wordswoth e fu aperta al pubblico nel 1970.

Towers Convent School

The Towers Convent School was a private Roman Catholic boarding and day school for girls aged 4–16 and boys up to age 11 in Upper Beeding near Steyning, West Sussex, England. The building is a French-style chateau in the semi-rural outskirts of Steyning, 4 miles (6.4 km) north of Shoreham-by-Sea. History The Towers was founded by the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament not to be confused with the order founded by Katharine Drexel. The Sisters left France for England to escape the increasing anti-religious environment, having been invited by Mrs Maling Wynch, a friend of the Congregation, to take up residence at The Towers, at the time leased by her brother-in-law. The first pupils arrived from France in 1903 to begin classes. After renting The Towers for several years, Elizabeth Maling Wynch, later to become Sister Mary Agnes, bought the property, and left it to the congregation in her will. Due to the decreasing number of pupils, alongside an uncertain economic climate, the Trustees of The Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament made the decision to announce that the school would close at the end of the 2020 academic year. In September 2020, Steyning Grammar School agreed to take a lease of the site to use the premises for their sixth form centre and the Sisters remain residents at The Towers to continue their community work. The Towers The Towers takes its name from the building and its surrounding premises. It was once owned by the Lord of the Manor of Beeding. The Towers was sold to George Smith during the 1870s. The original building was completed in 1883 and was described as a "monument to Victorian extravagance" or "Smith's folly" due to its construction cost. The Towers was turned into a hunting lodge before the Sisters took over. The original buildings were designated Grade II listed buildings in 1980. References External links Profile on the ISC website

Towneley Park

Towneley Park is owned and managed by Burnley Borough Council and is the largest and most popular park in Burnley, Lancashire, England. The main entrance to the park is within a mile of the town centre and the park extends to the south east, covering an area of some 180 hectares (440 acres). At the southern end of the park is Towneley Hall, a grade I listed building housing Burnley's art gallery and museum. To the north are golf courses and playing fields and to the south 24 acres of broadleaf woodland. On the southern boundary is a working farm called Towneley Farm with pastures and plantations extending eastwards into Cliviger. History The hall was the home of the Towneley family from around 1200. The family once owned extensive estates in and around Lancashire and the West Riding of Yorkshire. The male line of the family died out in 1878 and in 1901 one of the daughters, Lady O'Hagan, sold the house together with 62 acres (250,000 m2) of land to Burnley Corporation for £17,600. The family departed in March 1902. Between 2005 and 2011, the Heritage Lottery Fund granted £2.1 million to help fund a major programme of restoration of the Park, which is grade II listed. Towneley Hall The hall is a grade I listed building. The hall not only contains the 15th-century Whalley Abbey vestments, but also has its own chapel – with a finely carved altarpiece made in Antwerp around 1525. Collections The art gallery contains important Victorian and Pre-Raphaelite works by Burne-Jones, Waterhouse, Alma-Tadema and Zoffany, watercolours by Turner and local artist Noel H. Leaver, a collection of Lancashire furniture, the Whalley Abbey vestments, natural history and local social and military history relating to the Towneley family. The Deer Pond in Towneley Park is a Local Nature Reserve. Traditions According to folklore, the hall was haunted by a boggart. This spirit appeared once every seven years, just prior to the death of one of the residents. The boggart was linked to 'Sir John Towneley', who in life supposedly oppressed the poor of the district. According to writer Daniel Codd, there are later stories of a strange ghostly white apparition that appears by the River Calder.

Trafalgar Dock

Trafalgar Dock is a dock on the River Mersey, in England, and part of the Port of Liverpool. It is situated in the northern dock system in Vauxhall and connected to Salisbury Dock to the north. The sites of two former docks are located in the vicinity; Victoria Dock was located to the south and Clarence Dock to the east. History Trafalgar Dock was designed by Jesse Hartley, opened in 1836 and named after the Battle of Trafalgar. During the early 1990s, most of the dock basin was used as a designated landfill site. This has left only a section of the northern part of the dock and a narrow channel along the eastern dock wall. What remains of the dock provides access to Clarence Graving Docks. In 2007, work began on a £20 million extension of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, providing a further 1.4 mi (2.3 km) of navigable waterway. A new 6.5 m (21 ft)-wide channel was excavated through Trafalgar Dock to the northern end of West Waterloo Dock as part of the canal route. References Sources Baines, Thomas (1859).

Trafalgar Wharf, Portsmouth

Trafalgar Wharf is a shipyard in Portsmouth accommodating marine engineering businesses ranging from sailmakers and boat brokers to boat builders. It was formerly the VT Halmatic shipyard, owned by VT Group and latterly by BVT Surface Fleet. In November 2023 the site was acquired by Premier Marinas who also operate Port Solent marina opposite. History In September 2008, Trafalgar Wharf Ltd took over the former BVT Surface Fleet site and renamed it Trafalgar Wharf. The site is the former VT Halmatic shipyard where many smaller Royal Navy warships, such as Fast Patrol Boats and Corvettes were built. BVT Surface Fleet had been formed by the merger of the BAE Systems Surface Fleet Solutions subsidiary with VT Shipbuilding, itself originating as Vosper Thorneycroft. With the sale of the Portchester site, they vacated the yard, bringing an end to the company's use of the area, consolidating operations at its Shipyard facilities in HMNB Portsmouth. The site has evolved over the years to now encompass Europe’s largest indoor dry stack boat storage facility for over 300 small boats and a significant commercial shipyard providing bespoke refit and maintenance programmes for commercial vessels and private yachts. On the 23rd November 2023, the site was purchased by Premier Marinas adding to the companies existing portfolio of 10 marina and boatyard sites across the South Coast. The wider Trafalgar Wharf site has also become a hub for a wide range of marine and non-marine businesses and will now be known as Premier Trafalgar Wharf. Site The 22-acre (89,000 m2) Trafalgar Wharf site is located in the upper reaches of Portsmouth Harbour, opposite Port Solent. The company intends to remain true to its industrial roots, combining light marine trade with heavier industries. The site offers a wide range of space for marine businesses in buildings ranging from the massive 400 ft (120 m) main shed, probably the largest building of its kind on the south coast, to smaller individual business units including office space, housing many companies, overlooking Port Solent Marina. Premier Trafalgar Wharf an indoor dry stack boat storage is available in Portsmouth Harbour for motorboats, sportfishers and RIBs between 4 metres and 13 metres. Owned and operated by Premier Marinas' the companies friendly, highly trained dry stack team is capable of lifting two boats every 10 minutes using one of the three 42 tonne forklifts, all of which include telescopic cameras to provide advanced visibility, allowing the team to lift boats up 65 foot and down 25 foot. Easier than launch and recovery from a trailer. Trafalgar Wharf can accommodate up to 380 boats, making it the UK's largest indoor dry stack facility.
