ВЕС Вестермост-Раф

ВЕС Вестермост-Раф (англ. Westermost Rough) – британська офшорна вітроелектростанція, введена в експлуатацію у 2015 році. Місце для розміщення ВЕС обрали за 8 км від Холдернесс (узбережжя Йоркширу). Тут у січні 2014-го спеціалізоване судно Innovation розпочало спорудження монопальних фундаментів, котрі складались із паль діаметром 6,5 метра та вагою від 500 до 810 тон, і перехідних елементів вагою 367 тон. За один рейс воно доставляло із данського Ольборгу по п’ять таких комплектів. Після цього монтаж вітрових турбін провело інше спеціалізоване судно Sea Challenger, котре завершило роботу в березні 2015-го. На початку літа 2014 року плавучий кран Stanislav Yudin встановив гратчату опорну основу («джекет») офшорної трансформаторної підстанції та закріпив її на дні палями. На неї змонтували доставлену на одній баржі з основою надбудову з обладнанням («топсайд») розміром 15x30x15 метрів. Після цього судно Ndurance завело на підстанцію кінець головного експортного кабелю, прокладеного за кілька місяців до того іншим судном Stemat Spirit. Електроенергія подається на суходіл під напругою 150 кВ по лінії довжиною 11,8 км, при цьому перехід берегової зони виконали за допомогою технології спрямованого горизонтального буріння. Крім того прокладена підземна ділянка довжиною 15 км до підстанції 150/275 кВ в Hedon біля Кінгстон-апон-Галл. Станція складається з 35 вітрових турбін компанії Siemens типу SWT-6.0-154 одиничною потужністю 6 МВт та діаметром ротора 154 метри. Вони розташовані на площі 35 км2 в районі з глибинами моря від 16 до 26 метрів на баштах висотою 102 метри. Проект вартістю 800 млн фунтів стерлінгів спільно реалізували данцський енергетичний концерн DONG (50%), японська Marubeni (25%) та британська компанія Green Investment Bank (25%). Примітки
Western Eye Hospital

Western Eye Hospital is an ophthalmology hospital in central London. It is managed by the Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. History The hospital was founded by Henry Obre and John Woolcott, both surgeons at St John's Place in Lisson Grove as the St Marylebone Eye and Ear Institution in 1856. It moved to a larger facilities in Marylebone Road in 1860, and an out-patients department was opened by the Marquess of Ripon in 1904. After the existing building at Marylebone Road became very dilapidated, a new purpose-built facility was built on the same site and opened in March 1930. It joined the National Health Service in 1948 and was renamed the Western Eye Hospital in 1993. The former Samaritan Hospital for Women is located next door, and though largely disused is utilised to provide estates and facilities support for the adjoining Western Eye Hospital. Facilities The hospital operates a daily emergency department for ambulance and walk-in cases. It features a minor surgical theatre, a triage system and three ophthalmic operating theatres. It treats a wide range of eye conditions from glaucoma, cataract, retinal tears, to wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a major cause of blindness. Alumni and staff Bashar al-Assad - former President of Syria (attended postgraduate studies at the Western Eye Hospital, specializing in vitreoretinal ophthalmology). There, al-Assad's consultant supervisor remarked: "He was an extremely kind person and a warm personality", while a nurse stated that he was "calm at the operating table and had a wonderful manner with the patients... He spoke with every patient just before surgery to reassure them all would be well." See also List of hospitals in England References Sources Leverett, Flynt L. (2005).

Western Park, Leicester

Western Park is a park and surrounding suburb located in West End of Leicester. It is also a ward of the City of Leicester whose population at the 2011 census was 10,609. The park itself was bought for £30,000 in 1897 and at 178 acres (0.72 km2) is the biggest in Leicester. While the park has a "blend of meadows, mature woods and hedgerows" the park also contains a large number of sporting facilities including a BMX track, a skate ramp, a baseball field, two bowling greens, five football pitches, six cricket pitches (all with associated changing facilities) and six tennis courts. Until the 1950s the Park's tennis courts, then located to the far west of the Park, were the home of Westcotes Church Tennis Club and then Westfields Lawn Tennis Club. The club later moved to a site on the nearby Eastfield Road; the courts on Western Park are now open to the public. Since 2008, the full-sized baseball field at the southwest end of park has been home to the Leicester Blue Sox Baseball Club. The Blue Sox have been British Baseball Federation national baseball champions in 2009 and 2012. The club has adult and youth teams and is open to players of all ages and abilities. Until May 2013 the former park warden's lodge was home to the environmental charity Groundworks Leicester & Leicestershire, formerly known as Environ. This building was called the "Eco House" after being converted as a show house, used to demonstrate ways of making homes more environmentally friendly. It was open to the public and held one-off events as well as receiving visits from local schools. The Eco House and the neighbouring recycling centre were part of the larger Groundwork UK network. A voluntary group, The Friends of Western Park, works with the city council to "improve the park for everyone". The area of Leicester sharing the park's name is a generally affluent area to the South and East of the park. The suburb also contains Dovelands Primary School which caters for 550 3–11-year olds, including nursery school children. St. Anne's Parish Church, and the aforementioned Westfields Tennis Club. The club has four floodlit courts and caters to both children and adults from the local area and beyond. Christ the King Roman Catholic primary school, rated "outstanding" by Ofsted hosts two sites, the infant site at the top of Western Park and the junior site further down on Glenfield Road.

Badbury Rings

Badbury Rings ist ein eisenzeitliches Fort im Osten von Dorset in England. Es stammt aus der Zeit um 800 v. Chr. und wurde etwa bis zur römischen Invasion Englands um 43 n. Chr. genutzt. Badbury Rings liegt zwischen zwei römischen Straßen, zwischen Dorchester, Old Sarum (Salisbury), Bath und Hamworthy (Poole). Das ca. 100 m hoch gelegene, sieben Hektar große Fort wurde von drei ca. 15 m hohen Holzwällen und vier bronzezeitlichen Grabhügeln umgeben, die auf die frühere Bedeutung des Platzes hinweisen. Auf einem Stein eines der Hügelgräber sind in England sehr selten auftretende Ritzungen zu erkennen. Sie stellen Dolche, axtförmig eingezogene Dreiecke und Cup-and-Ring-Markierungen dar, wie sie ganz ähnlich auch auf Stein 53 in Stonehenge vorkommen. Dorset fiel während der angelsächsischen Invasion Englands in die Hände der Angelsachsen, die vom Bokerley Dyke (Wall) auf der römischen Straße von Old Sarum aufgehalten wurden. Der Historiker Roy Carr stellte die Vermutung auf, dass die Angelsachsen durch eine bedrohliche Armee aus Westen, die sich vielleicht bei Badbury Rings aufhielt, abgehalten wurden. Carr vermutete außerdem, dass diese Armee eine der Quellen für die Arthuslegende sein könnte und, dass Badbury Rings der Ort gewesen sein könnte, an dem die Schlacht von Mons Badonicus stattfand. Die Seite, von der der Hang in das Cranborne Chase fällt, ist Teil des Kingston Lacy Anwesens und gehört dem National Trust.

Badbury Rings

Badbury Rings est une colline fortifiée de l'âge du fer britannique située dans le Dorset, en Angleterre. Histoire Le site témoigne d'au moins deux phases de construction. La première comprend les deux remparts et les deux fossés intérieurs, qui enclosent une surface d'environ 7 hectares. La seconde, qui double la superficie enclose, comprend le rempart et le fossé extérieur. Le site se trouve dans la région occupée avant l'occupation romaine par le peuple des Durotriges. Quelques objets de l'époque romaine ont été découverts sur le site, et la ville de Vindocladia mentionnée dans l'Itinéraire d'Antonin pourrait correspondre à un site archéologique situé à 1,5 km au sud-ouest de la colline. Le fort semble avoir été réoccupé durant la période post-romaine. Il s'agit d'un des emplacements proposés pour la bataille du mont Badon, qui aurait opposé Bretons et Anglo-Saxons aux alentours de l'an 500.

Westfield Academy, Yeovil

Westfield Academy (formerly known as Westfield School) is a secondary school in Yeovil, Somerset, England. The school has 904 students aged between 11 and 16 years. In August 2011, it became an academy. History The school was created as a comprehensive school in 1975, following the decision of Somerset County Council to end selective grammar school education in the Yeovil area. The new school was launched with the pupils from the first to fifth forms of Yeovil High School, Yeovil School, and Summerleaze Secondary Modern School, while those in the high schools’ sixth forms were offered and mostly accepted places at the new Yeovil College. Westfield Comprehensive School took over the buildings of the former Yeovil High School for girls and the old Westfield Junior School, which had been located on opposite sides of a large playing field. In 2010, the children of the Westfield Junior School and the Parcroft Primary School moved to the Summerleaze site of the new Oaklands Community Primary School. In the same year, the school announced plans to provide sports fields on the old Westfield Infants School, which was to be demolished. In 2012, the School secured just under £60,000 of national lottery funding money to be used to update the tennis courts. These courts are now used by the students and outside sporting clubs. Academic performance and inspections In the summer of 2011, the school announced its best ever GCSE exam results, with 79% of the school leavers achieving 5 GCSEs at grades A* to C. In addition, 56% of the students gained 5 GCSEs at grades A* to C, including English and Maths. These results were some of the highest in Yeovil at the time. In 2023, the school was inspected by Ofsted and received a judgment of Good.

Westfield Common

Westfield Common is an area of land in Westfield, Woking that is registered common land. Attributes Westfield Common has boundaries that have been little reduced since 1719. The common has been recognised by the local authority with a preliminary assessment by Natural England as a regionally important Site of Nature Conservation (SNCI). as it supports nationally scarce plants in the chamomile family and in aquatic species for example populations of great crested newts in two ponds. It has species-rich areas of: wet woodland, drains and ponds. The Common gives its name to a residents association called the Westfield Common Residents Association (WCRA) open to all users of the common in the local authority. Commons registration Under the First Wilson ministry's Commons Registration Act 1965 (CRA), a task and duty was given to top level local authorities to log and register all Common Land within England & Wales to ensure continued protection for public benefit and to mitigate the effects of 19th century inclosure resulting in perennial court claims of ownership by the aristocracy and other landowners to pieces of common land, even where used as such by the common people of a parish. The common was registered with registration number is CL 121 at Surrey County Council. Under the CRA section 9, having unclear ownership, most of which was possessed in common by its users, the land became subject to the protection of the local authority (Woking Borough Council). There are no pinpointed common rights such as taking of grass, berries or grazing recorded in the official register. Management Plan A comprehensive management plan to improve the ecology and social benefits of the common has been developed by Surrey Wildlife Trust and formally adopted by Woking Borough Council.

Уэстгейт, Кентербери

Уэстгейт (англ. Westgate) — средневековые городские ворота в городе Кентербери, Кент, Англия. Их высота составляет 18 метров, что делает их самыми высокими воротами всей городской стены и самыми высокими городскими воротами в Англии, сохранившимися до наших дней. Построенные из кентского известняка около 1379 года, они являются последними сохранившимися из семи средневековых ворот Кентербери. Являются одной из самых отличительных достопримечательностей города. Между башнями по-прежнему пролегает дорога, а внутри них находится музей. Архитектура Башни построены из кентского тесаного камня. В стенах находятся восемнадцать амбразур: это большое число для ворот, а сами они появились здесь в Британии впервые. Считается, что они были добавлены к началу XV века. У ворот был подъемный мост через Стур, порткулли и деревянные двери. Ворота имеют три этажа. Первый этаж был спроектирован таким образом, чтобы ворота и сводчатый проход имели входы в башни с каждой стороны. В каждой башне находилась комната на первом этаже с камином и четырьмя амбразурами. В комнате первого этажа северной башни была винтовая лестница на верхние этажи. На первом этаже находится большая комната с камином и механизмом открытия ворот. В этом помещении были двери в верхнюю комнату каждой башни. Из-за угрозы французского вторжения в 1470-х и 1480-х годах всё сооружение было укреплено. В 1491 или 1492 году большое простое перпендикулярное восточное окно было добавлено в большую комнату на первом этаже с видом на собор. Примечания

Westgate (Winchester)

Westgate er en af to bevarede befæstede byporte i Winchester, England (den anden er Kingsgate), som tidligere var en del af Winchesters bymure. De ældste bevarede dele af bygningen er af angelsaksisk oprindelse. Porten blev genopført i 1100-tallet og ombygget i 1200-tallet og igen i slutningen af 1300-tallet. Sidstnævnte ombygning omfattede blandt andet en faldgitterport i den vestlige facade samt to omvendte nøglehulsformede skydeskår til håndholdte kanoner, de tidligste af deres slags i landet. Porten var i brug indtil 1959, hvor High Street blev omlagt uden om den. I 1800-tallet overtog byrådet (nu Winchester City Council) Westgate og begyndte at anvende den som museum og arkiv for byens historiske dokumenter. I 2014 blev ejerskabet af museumsområdet overdraget til Hampshire Cultural Trust. I dag omfatter udstillingerne på Westgate Museum blandt andet en berømt samling af vægte og måleenheder fra tiden før det britiske imperium samt et fint bemalet loft, som blev fremstillet til Winchester College i forbindelse med et forventet besøg af Maria Tudor og Filip af Spanien i anledning af deres bryllup i Winchester i 1554.

Westgate, Winchester

The Westgate is one of two surviving fortified gateways in Winchester, England (the other is Kingsgate) formerly part of Winchester City Walls. The earliest surviving fabric is of Anglo-Saxon character. The gate was rebuilt in the 12th century and modified in the 13th and late 14th centuries, the latter including a portcullis in the western façade and two inverted-keyhole gunports (for use with hand-held cannon), the earliest in the country. The gate was in use until 1959 when the High Street was routed around it. In the 19th century the City Corporation (now Winchester City Council) acquired the Westgate and began to use it as a museum and repository for the City archives. In 2014, ownership of the museum space was transferred to Hampshire Cultural Trust. Today, the Westgate Museum's displays include a famous collection of pre-Imperial weights and measures, and a fine painted ceiling made for Winchester College in anticipation of a visit by Mary Tudor and Philip of Spain on the occasion of their marriage in Winchester in 1554.

Westgate Methodist Chapel

Westgate Methodist Chapel stands on the A689 road in the village of Westgate, some 5 miles (8 km) west of Stanhope, County Durham, England (grid reference NY905380). It is a redundant chapel and is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building. History This was originally a Primitive Methodist chapel. The area in which it stands, Weardale, has a long history of Primitive Methodism, having been the site of a camp meeting in 1823. The first chapel in the village was built in 1824. The present chapel, built in 1871, was designed by George Race junior and a Mr Atkinson. It cost £1,300 (equivalent to £132,400 as of 2025), and was attached to the earlier chapel which then became a schoolroom. The chapel closed in 2007, and was owned and partially restored by the Historic Chapels Trust from late 2009 to 2026 when due to the withdrawal of grants from Historic England it was sold at nil value to the Trades4Care charity. Architecture The chapel is constructed in sandstone and has Welsh slate roofs. It is in two storeys and has five bays. There are two entrances on the south of the building, a single entrance in the westernmost bay, and a paired entrance in the easternmost bay. The ground floor windows have square heads, and the upper floor windows are round-headed. Over the lower windows is a series of inscribed panels. To the east, and slightly set back, is the former schoolroom, which is also has two storeys, and is in three bays. The windows are similar to those in the chapel. Internally, the pulpit is at the west end. At the east end is an entrance lobby with two flights of stairs leading up to the gallery, which runs round all sides of the chapel. The gallery is carried on slim cast iron Corinthian columns that rise upwards to form an arcade above. The body of the chapel and the gallery contain rows of pitch pine pews. The organ is situated above the pulpit at the west end. It was built in about 1920 by Nelson & Co. of Durham, and has two manuals. In front of the pulpit is a dais surrounded by communion rails. On each side of this are curved doors leading to vestries with a store room between them. The ceiling contains coving with large panels; it is decorated with stucco leaves, cornices and roundels around the ventilators.
