Flemings Mayfair

Flemings Mayfair is a luxury hotel located in the Mayfair area of London, England. It is home to Manetta's Bar, the original hangouts in the 1930s for famous artists and literati of the day; and Ormer Mayfair, a fine-dining restaurant under the direction of Sofian Msetfi. Ormer Mayfair was awarded its first Michelin star in 2024, four AA Rosettes, and is consistently voted one of the top restaurant for fine-dining in London. History In 1851, Robert Fleming owned and ran a lodging house at number 10 Half Moon Street (believed to have originated in 1730). He started running what he called a 'private hotel' in 1855, at 9 and 10 Half Moon Street. From 1855 to 1857, George Hudson, MP for Sunderland, owned apartments in the hotel. Hudson, famed as the 'Railway King', was a fraudster who had his downfall when he was discovered to have falsified railway company share prices. He stayed at Flemings when it was not possible for him to be arrested due to his position as MP. In 1964, Agatha Christie published At Bertram's Hotel, about an up-market hotel which serves as the home base for a sophisticated criminal gang. Christie's official biography claims Flemings as the model for the eponymous hotel, based on correspondence between Christie and her literary agent Edmund Cork. 7, 8 and 9-12 Half Moon Street were originally Georgian townhouses and have been Grade II listed on the National Heritage List for England since March 1980. The rear of the hotel at 39-42 Clarges Street was a separate hotel before the war, and it is also Grade II listed. References External links Official website

The shopping centre is a mixed-use development, incorporating elements of a previous shopping centre development of the same name. Friars Square includes over 60 shops and restaurants, offices, 400-space multi-storey car park and bus station. The Cloisters indoor market was closed in 2012. to make store space for H&M and space for a gym The centre is anchored by House of Fraser. History The original Friars Square (or Friar's Square) was created in the 1960s as the Aylesbury Town Centre Redevelopment. It transformed the south-west part of the town centre including the Market Square and Silver Street areas. The first phase opened in 1967, it included a number of shops in an open-air pedestrian only area, and included a new location for the town's market. The second phase which included Woolworths and the bus station opened in 1969. The Cadena cafe, which later became a Wimpy, was housed in a modern architectural pavilion over the open market. The current shopping centre was formally opened in 1993 at a cost of £70m, following the closure and extension of the previous town centre development of the same name. The redevelopment was designed by Stanley Bragg Architects. The large Woolworth building was integrated into the development, to house the new anchor store (now House of Fraser) and the library.

Gibson Hall, London

The Gibson Hall is a Grade I listed building at 13 Bishopsgate in the City of London. Previously known as National Westminster Hall, the building is named after its architect, John Gibson. Built of Portland stone in the classical style with engaged Corinthian columns, the building was commissioned as a new head office by the directors of the National Provincial Bank of England and completed in 1865. Opening in 1866, there were only 4 arched bays and just seven figures stood atop. The additional two-bay extension and rooftop figures, Shipbuilding and Mining designed by Charles Henry Mabey, were added in 1878, relocating the figure for London so that it remained at the corner of the then newly extended building. The exterior elevation features eight panels of allegorical scenes in high relief representing the achievements of mankind: the Arts, Commerce, Science, Manufactures, Agriculture, Navigation, Shipbuilding and Mining. Standing figures along the roof line represent various important cities in which the bank did business, including Manchester, Birmingham, Dover, Newcastle and London. The building was listed in 1950 for its special architectural and historic interest. In 1967, the National Provincial Bank moved its head office to Drapers Gardens, 12 Throgmorton Avenue. The banking hall served its original purpose until 1982, when it was restored and converted into an assembly room for National Westminster Bank. From its disposal in 1998, it has operated as an events hosting venue available for hire to the general public. It is currently closed and no longer listed as available as a venue for hire.

Grove Hall Park

Grove Hall Park is a 1.19 ha public park in Bow in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, East London. It includes play areas, a ball games area, and a small walled memorial garden. Grove Hall Park was opened as a public park in 1909 following its purchase by the Metropolitan Borough of Poplar in an auction in 1906. Previously the land had been in the possession of the Byas family, who had established Grove Hall Private Lunatic Asylum on the plot in 1820. This establishment primarily catered for ex-servicemen and was featured in Charles Dickens' novel Nicholas Nickleby (1839). In 1878 it was the largest asylum in London with capacity for 443 inmates. In 1930 the park was extended with land that had served as the garden for the St Catherine's Convent, Bow. The former convent Church of Our Lady and St Catherine of Siena, which opened in 1870, survives in Bow Road, but the Dominican convent itself moved to Stone, Staffordshire, in 1926.
