Hauxton Mill

The Hauxton Mill is a classic English watermill on the old A10 road between Cambridge and Royston, England. Commercial activity ceased at the mill in 1974, when the last Miller (Gerald Maurice Arthur "Moss" Turner) liquidated his civil engineering businesses (G.M.A. Turner & Son Ltd) which operated out of the mill and its grounds. The mill at the time belonged to a local landowner as part of his estate. The neighbouring site was owned by a chemical pesticide company known as "Pest Control" for many years. The plant closed in 2004 and the site was sold for a development to be named Hauxton Meadows. Because of government legislation, Fisons Agrochem, the previous owners of the development site, were obliged to buy out the neighbouring properties with residential housing. This included the mill site because of the newer Hauxton Mill House (approx 1922), which was part of the office complex for the plant, and Mill Cottage (rebuilt 1973). At first, Fisons rented the mill from the landowner, and used the mill itself for storage. Planning permission to convert the building to various uses was always rejected due to the historic interest. Mill House was converted to flats, and after another round of legal changes was finally used as an administrative office before falling into disuse in the mid eighties. The mill was left unattended, with the doors and windows blocked and barred, and gradually fell into a state of disrepair. A grate in front of the mill wheel was removed for now forgotten reasons, and a storm sent a tree crashing into the wooden wheel, effectively ending the operability of the mill around 1980. The grating has since been replaced and the remains of the tree removed. An adjacent, non-listed building, the former mill-keeper's house, which had been derelict and overgrown for some time, was destroyed by a fire, treated as arson, in July 2020. In 2018, o2h group acquired Hauxton Mill, and developed the site into Mill SciTech Park. o2h co-work labs operates the Mill SciTech Park in Hauxton, Cambridge, a place for entrepreneurs, scientists, techies & dreamers. Supported by high specification labs to create a genuinely unique environment for creativity and innovation to thrive.

The Spring Arts & Heritage Centre

The Spring Arts & Heritage Centre, formerly Havant Arts Centre and, before that, Havant Town Hall, is an arts centre in East Street, in Havant, Hampshire, England. The building served as the local town hall until it was converted for use as an arts centre in 1978. History Following significant population growth, largely associated with the fishing industry, a local board of health was established the area in 1852. In 1868, a group of local businessmen, led by the lord of the manor, William Henry Stone of Leigh Park House, decided to form a company, to be known as The Havant Town Hall Company, to finance and commission an events venue for the area. The site they selected was open land on the south side of East Street. The building was designed by Richard William Drew in the Gothic Revival style, built in red brick with stone dressings and was officially opened on 28 January 1870. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage of five bays facing onto East Street. The central bay featured a round headed doorway with a semi-circular fanlight, carvings in the spandrels and a pediment above containing a quatrefoil. Behind the doorway there was a tower with four round headed mullioned and transomed windows and a pyramid-shaped roof. The other bays were fenestrated by pairs of cusped and transomed windows. Above the windows there was a parapet which was broken by more quatrefoils. The building was a town hall in the sense of being a large hall for public events rather than a council's headquarters. However, Havant Urban District Council, which succeeded the local board of health in 1894, acquired the building in 1921 and converted it into its meeting place. The adjoining house called Moorlands was bought by the council in 1946 and incorporated into the town hall complex to provide additional office space. The town hall briefly remained a meeting place for the enlarged Borough of Havant Council which was formed in 1974. However, the council vacated the town hall in 1977, when new civic offices were opened at Civic Centre Road to the north of the town centre. Instead, the town hall was converted into an arts centre, which was officially opened on opened on 24 June 1978. The conversion created a small theatre with 135 seats, suitable for concerts and theatrical performances. The arts centre was managed by Amanda O'Reilly from 2003 to 2012, when Sophie Fullerlove took over the role. Cheryl Pierce took charge in 2022. References
Haven High Academy

Haven High Academy (formerly Haven High Technology College and Haven High School) is a secondary school with academy status located in Boston, Lincolnshire, England. Haven High is a member academy of Voyage Education Partnership (formerly BWAF, Boston Witham Academies Federation). History The school came into being in September 1992 as the result of a merger of the then Kitwood Girls School and Kitwood Boys School. School campuses The school has two campuses, Marian Campus being the main one and Tollfield being a separate campus for Year 7s and Year 8s (formerly a campus for 6th form students, then only year 7). The campus used to be the now defunct St Bede's Catholic Science College. The address of the Tollfield Campus is at 90-96 Tollfield Rd, Boston PE21 9PN. Both of the campuses are split into 'blocks', for example A block and E block. School inspections Ofsted inspections of the school in 2016, 2019 and 2022 all resulted in reports of "Requires Improvement", the second lowest category of performance. This was despite an interim Ofsted monitoring report in December 2021 indicating that the school was making rapid progress in addressing the areas of concern. The Ofsted inspection published in November 2024 reports the school as “Inadequate” for all sections except for Personal Development, which is “Requires Improvement”. The spokesman for the school said that they “strongly disagree” with the report. Controversies In 2023, the BBC reported allegations that pupils at the school were part of a system of fights being planned for social media audiences. Earlier the same year, other student discipline issues were reported in the media. The same year, students organised protests, which were happening mainly at Marian Campus, featuring walkouts and not attending lessons. In April 2024, some teachers at the school went on strike in connection with the behavioural issues of students at the school. In 2021 the assistant head of the school's music program was banned from teaching indefinitely after admitting having a sexual relationship with a pupil. References External links Official website
Haven Hotel

The Haven Hotel is a historic AA four star (formerly, no longer rated) hotel in Sandbanks, near Poole, Dorset on the south coast of England. The hotel dates from the Victorian era and was used by wireless telegraphy pioneer Guglielmo Marconi. History The North Haven Inn was originally built on the site in 1838. This building was demolished and replaced with the present Haven Hotel in 1887. From 1898 – 1926, the Haven Hotel was home to the Italian inventor and physicist, Guglielmo Marconi, who built a 120-foot (37 m) wooden transmitter mast in the hotel’s grounds at the hotel in 1898, and another 158-foot (48 m) wireless mast at the back of the hotel. He carried out some of his first wireless telegraphy experiments at the Haven Hotel. Marconi lived at the Haven Hotel until 1926, where he took his meals at a communal table where all guests were invited to eat. Following dinner, there was often a musical interlude with Guglielmo accompanying his guests on the piano. Other notable guests include Robert Browning, John Major, and the Real Madrid football team in 2014. During the First World War, the Haven Hotel housed Belgian refugees. Throughout the Second World War, the Haven Hotel was a military contact point and a Naval detachment. In 1976, The Haven Hotel was purchased by the hotel chain FJB Hotels. In 2017, a planning application was made to demolish the hotel and build a six-storey apartment block on the site, resulting in thousands of letters of objection from members of the public. It was announced in April 2021 that Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole Council would rule on the application in "the coming months". Architecture The Haven Hotel was rebuilt in 1926, when the country still ricocheted from the Great War and Britain’s hotel architecture was stagnant, it was hailed a seaside architectural triumph. In fact, one publication announced it was “the only good-class hotel of any size erected of late” and a “successful attempt to combine modern ideas in hotel planning with the latest construction and materials.” Completed in 10 months, it is said that over 1,000 architectural drawings were produced by hand and that, on average, 162 men were employed per day, for 270,600 man hours. This was an epic undertaking for what was, at the time, a seaside town. Whilst the Haven Hotel visible today has largely stayed true to its original design, there are some quirks that, over the years, have been lost to changing times and trends. For example, the seawater sunken baths, which offered guests a detoxifying soak in the comfort of their own rooms, the chauffeur’s accommodation conveniently located above the parking facilities and a petrol station for guests on the site of today’s Business Centre, and the designated smoking room, which at the time would have been considered the height of fashion. It took 500,00 bricks, 500 tons of cement, 12,000 cubic feet of timber and 6,000 cubic feet of stonework, the hotel is now considered a fine example of 1920s architecture.

Havering College of Further and Higher Education

Havering College of Further and Higher Education is a college founded in 1947 in the London Borough of Havering that provides part-time and full-time education to students aged 14+. History Following the introduction of the Education Act 1944, the Essex Education Committee acquired the majority of the Nelmes Estate in Hornchurch, including Victorian era Ardleigh House and surrounding 15 acres of land. Ardleigh House was initially used as a community and youth centre, and as a centre for part-time day release courses. The facilities were very basic, confined to upstairs rooms, and allowed only for basic instruction. Some years later, two additional classrooms with storage space were built, and the local authority Further Education Committee started to plan for an assembly hall and craft workshops for what was then called 'Ardleigh House Centre for Further Education'. Expenditure was approved in 1949 for another 14,000 square ft. of administration and teaching facilities, as well as communal accommodation for a student population of 400. In 1958 A. W. Ebdon became Ardleigh House Centre for Further Education's second warden and oversaw the completion of the new facilities. He then became the first principal of a newly renamed Hornchurch College of Further Education. During the 1970s there was a commitment to improve standards of training but pressure on space remained an issue. This issue was resolved with the adoption of the Quarles School site in Harold Hill. In 1992 the college was incorporated with its current name. Havering College Today The College currently has two campuses; the main Ardleigh Green campus in Hornchurch and the Rainham Campus Construction Centre in Rainham. A plan scheduled for 2020 is to substantially develop the capacity of Ardleigh Green and the Rainham Campus Construction Centre using the income from the concluded sale of the Quarles campus to Havering Borough Council. Lord Baker launched two Career Colleges in Construction and Engineering at Havering College in October 2017. These Career Colleges focus on employer engagement, providing learners with work experience opportunities alongside their industry-recognised qualifications. In September 2018, the College opened the Plumbing Centre of Excellence, a joint venture with SoPHE and CIPHE. This employer-led Centre ensures students' skills and knowledge are developed in line with industry requirements. The corporation Stan Rose heads the governing body as chair of the corporation, having an association with the college dating back to 1974 when he was a visiting lecturer. As a member of the college's Business Liaison team, he represented the college on Havering Council’s Work Related Education Committee, before becoming a member of the governing body in 1990. The rest of the governing body is made up of a range of current and retired professionals with varied working backgrounds, alongside staff and student governors.

Hawkesdown Hill

Hawkesdown Hill, also known as Hawkesdown Camp, is an Iron Age Hill fort close to Axmouth in Devon. It is situated on a prominent hillside above the Axe Estuary and is approximately 130 metres (430 ft) above sea level. Description The hill fort has a single earthwork boundary enclosing about 2.5 hectares (6.2 acres) with an outwork to the east. The prominent site means that the fort has steep natural defenses on all other sides. The roughly rectangular interior is some 250 metres (820 ft) in length, on an east-west orientation, with a width of some 100 metres (330 ft). The boundary consists of a rampart, which survives in places to a height of 4 metres (13 ft), surrounded by a U-shaped ditch over 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) deep. The outwork lies 100 metres (330 ft) to the east and is 17.8 metres (58 ft) wide and 0.4 metres (1 ft 4 in) high. Remains found on the site suggest it was subject to an attack by the Romans, although the circumstances are unrecorded, and may simply reflect use of an abandoned site for training purposes. Status Hawkesdown Camp was designated as a scheduled monument in 1924, a status it retains. There is no public access to the hill or camp, which forms part of the Bindon estate and is maintained as a pheasant shoot. References
Hawkshead Grammar School

Hawkshead Grammar School in Hawkshead, Cumbria, England was founded in 1585 by Archbishop Edwin Sandys, the incumbent Archbishop of York, whose family came from the Hawkshead area. He petitioned Queen Elizabeth I for a charter to set up the school and endowed it will sufficient land and property for the education to be free, and for many years it was known as 'The Free Grammar School of Hawkshead'. The early School taught Latin, Greek and sciences, including arithmetic and geometry. At its peak in 1750-1800, it had a very good reputation for teaching Maths and getting boys into Cambridge, and attracted pupils from across the North of England and southern Scotland. Although the School closed in 1909, the building functions today as Hawkshead Grammar School Museum and is open to the public. The building is Grade II* listed.

Haworth Art Gallery

The Haworth Art Gallery is a public art gallery located in Accrington, Lancashire, northwest England, and is the home of the largest collection in Europe of Tiffany glass from the studio of Louis Comfort Tiffany. The museum, a Tudor-style house, was originally built in 1909 to be the home of William Haworth, a manufacturer of textiles. The house was designed by Walter Brierley (1862–1926), a York architect known as "the Yorkshire Lutyens". It was bequeathed to the people of Accrington in 1920, and stands in nine acres of parkland on the south side of Accrington Town Centre. The Haworth's Tiffany collection is the largest outside the United States, with almost every type of Tiffany glass, including 140 pieces, including Favrile glass tiles, jewels, samples and mosaics. It was the gift of Joseph Briggs, a design apprentice who left Accrington at 17 to emigrate to the United States, where he worked for Tiffany for 40 years from about 1892. In 1933, he sent his Tiffany collection home. The collection is on permanent public display in four themed-rooms: 'Tiffany and Interior Design', 'Tiffany and the Past', 'Tiffany and Nature', and 'The Tiffany Phenomenon'. Notable in the Gallery's Tiffany collection are over 70 vases, including a group of 'Millefiore Paperweight' and 'Intaglio' or cut-glass examples, 'flowerform' vases, vases shaped like vegetables, 'Cypriote' and 'Tel-El-Amarna' vases inspired by Roman and Egyptian examples. There are also samples relating to decorative schemes Briggs was involved with, and his 'Sulphur-crested Cockatoos' mosaic. The museum also has a collection of mainly 19th-century oil paintings and watercolours including works by Frederic, Lord Leighton, Claude Joseph Vernet, John Frederick Herring and others.
