Dale-Dyke-Staudamm

Der Dale-Dyke-Staudamm war ein Staudamm etwa 8 bis 10 Kilometer oberhalb der Stadt Sheffield in England. Er wurde von 1859 bis 1864 am Fluss Loxley von der Sheffield Water Company gebaut und war 25,50 Meter hoch. Der Stausee dahinter (das Bradfield Reservoir) war bis zu 21 Meter tief. Der Stauinhalt betrug rund 3 Millionen m³. Die Dammlänge betrug 270 Meter und die Kronenbreite 12 Meter. Er brach am 11. März 1864 und verursachte eine Flutwelle, die Sheffield teilweise verwüstete und etwa 250 bis 270 Todesopfer forderte. Die Flut wird auch die „Große Flut von Sheffield“ (Great Sheffield Flood) oder die „Große Überschwemmung“ genannt. Der Staudamm war fast fertig und zum ersten Mal gefüllt. Der Bruch geschah während eines stürmischen Wetters kurz vor Mitternacht. Wasser spritzte vom Wind getrieben über die Dammkrone. Zuerst gab es nur einen schmalen fingerbreiten Riss an der Luftseite. Der Chefingenieur des Wasserwerks, John Gunson, begutachtete den Riss und obwohl er ihn für gefahrlos hielt, wollte man den Stausee absenken. Mit dem normalen Ablass hätte das Tage gedauert, und so versuchte man, das Wehr am Überlauf zu sprengen, um eine größere Ausflussöffnung zu erzeugen. Bevor das gelang, vergrößerte sich der Riss, eine Bresche bildete sich und der Damm brach etwa um 23:30 Uhr zusammen. John Gunson konnte sich gerade noch retten. Die Flutwelle stürzte das Tal hinab, durch Loxley und Hillsborough, dann den Fluss Don entlang und mitten durch Sheffield, Attercliffe und Rotherham. Die Flutwelle zerstörte 800 Häuser, alle Brücken in der Stadt einschließlich der Lady’s Bridge in der Stadtmitte. Leichen wurden später auch noch im weiter entfernten Mexborough gefunden. Der Stausee war nach 47 Minuten fast leergelaufen. Zehn Jahre später (von 1870 bis 1874) wurde rund 300 Meter weiter talaufwärts ein neuer Damm gebaut, der heute noch besteht.

Dale Dike Reservoir

Dale Dike Reservoir or Dale Dyke Reservoir (grid reference SK240913) is a reservoir in the north-east Peak District, in the City of Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, a mile (1.6 km) west of Bradfield and eight miles (13 km) from the centre of Sheffield, on the Dale Dike, a tributary of the River Loxley. Along with three other reservoirs around the village of Bradfield – Agden, Damflask and Strines – it was constructed between 1859 and 1864 by the Sheffield Waterworks Company to guarantee a supply of water to power the mills downstream and to supply drinking water to the growing population of Sheffield. The architect was John Gunson. Great Sheffield Flood The original dam was constructed to a height of 95 feet (29 m) by John Towlerton Leather, and was completed by April 1863. The dam head had a puddle clay core and had a max volume of 114 million cubic feet (3.240 million cubic metres). Filling took place soon after, and by 10 March 1864, the water level was 2 feet 4 inches (0.7 m) below the crest of the dam. At 23:30 on 11 March 1864, the day after the reservoir was finally full, the newly built dam failed. Over 690 million imperial gallons (3.1 Gl) of water cascaded down the valley causing the Great Sheffield Flood, which caused massive damage downstream along the Loxley and Don and through the centre of Sheffield, destroying over 5,000 properties and killing 244 people. The new dam The dam was rebuilt in 1875, some 980 feet (300 m) upstream of the previous dam head, and is still in use, holding 72,860,000 cubic feet (2,063,200 m3) of water, now used exclusively for domestic purposes. It is owned by Yorkshire Water, part of the Kelda Group.

Knavesmire

Knavesmire är en samling stora, outvecklade våtmarker inom City of York, North Yorkshire i England. Dessa våtmarker ingår i gruppen Micklegate Stray (tillsammans med Hob Moor), som i sin tur är en av fyra grupper av öppna landområden som benämns Strays of York; de övriga tre är Bootham Stray, Monk Stray och Walmgate Stray. Det har föreslagits att namnet Knavesmire delar samma ursprung som namnet Knaresborough. York Tyburn, platsen för galgen som administrerades av Englands kungahus vid York Castle, låg i Knavesmire, i närheten av Tadcaster Road. Flera personer har avrättats här, såsom Rhys ap Maredudd, Dick Turpin, Alexander Rawlins, Henry Walpole, Nicholas Postgate och Elizabeth Broadingham.

Dales Countryside Museum

The Dales Countryside Museum is a local museum which also functions as a visitor centre for the Yorkshire Dales National Park in Northern England. Run by the National Park Authority, it tells the story of the people who have lived and worked in the Yorkshire Dales for over a 1,000 years. The basis of the museum was a collection of artefacts gathered by Marie Hartley, Ella Pontefract and Joan Ingilby. The Museum The museum is located beside the disused Hawes railway station in the small town of Hawes at the head of Wensleydale. The museum's outdoor display includes a real steam train and carriages on the track bed of the former Wensleydale Railway. The railway station remains in its original site, now part of the museum building. Since 2015, part of the redundant station has been rented to a business operating a bike shop and later, also a cafe. The steam engine (a Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn Works No 7845, No.12, Current number 67345 0-6-0T) was built in 1955 by Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn to work at Hams Hall Power Station at Sutton Coldfield. Little is known about the early preservation history of the locomotive although it was at Sheringham on the North Norfolk railway in 1975/76. It moved to Ruddington, at what is now the Great Central Railway at Nottingham, in 1998 for cosmetic restoration. For many years the locomotive has been on display at the Dales countryside Museum at Hawes at Wensleydale. It carries the number 67345 as this was the number of the NER G5 class locomotive which hauled the last passenger train out of Hawes station in 1959. The last freight train used the line in 1964 after which the line was lifted. References External links Official website "Dales Countryside Museum". Yorkshire Dales: National Park Authority.

Dalham Hall

Dalham Hall is a country house and 3,300-acre (13 km2) estate, located in the village of Dalham, Suffolk, near Newmarket, and 13 kilometres (8 mi) west of Bury St Edmunds. Owners of the Dalham estate have included: c.1050-1240 Peche Family 1240-1320 English Crown Estate (from 1303, Margaret of France, Queen of England) 1320-1362 Walter de Norwich, followed by his son John de Norwich (died 1362) 1362-1417 various joint-owners, including Robert Scales, 5th Baron Scales 1417-1697 Stuteville Family 1697-1702 Sir Gilbert Dolben, 1st Baronet 1702-1714 Bishop Simon Patrick and his eponymous son 1714-1901 Affleck Family, including Gilbert Affleck and John Affleck 1901-1928 Rhodes Family, including Cecil Rhodes and Frank Rhodes 1928-2009 Philipps Family 2009–present Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum The manor was not the principal residence of any family until acquired by the Stutevilles, the first of whom is likely to have established Dalham Hall. Simon Patrick (1626–1707), the Bishop of Chichester (1689–1691) and Bishop of Ely (1691–1707), purchased this estate at Dalham in December 1702, and commissioned the building of the present Dalham Hall. John Affleck Esq. acquired the estate from the Bishop's son in 1714. After remaining in Affleck's family (the Affleck baronets) for nearly 200 years, in 1901, the estate was bought by Cecil Rhodes, on the evidence of photographs, and tales of its game shooting prowess. After Rhodes died in 1902, before taking possession, his brother Francis William Rhodes and his family inherited the hall, and erected a hall in the village in Cecil Rhodes' memory. The estate was bought in 1928 by Laurence Philipps, a shipping magnate who established what became known as the Dalham Hall Stud. The house was three storeys high until a serious fire of 1954, when the top floor was removed and the roof reconstructed. In 1981 Major Jim Philipps sold the stud to Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Ruler of Dubai and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates. After the major died in 1984, the rest of the estate was held in trust by his heirs until July 2009, when it was sold for £45 million to Sheikh Mohammed via estate agents Bidwells. The Hall is listed Grade II on the National Heritage List for England. Footnotes References Cecil Rhodes & William Thomas Stead (1902).

Dally Castle

Dally Castle ist eine Burgruine etwa 8 km westlich von Bellingham Castle in der englischen Grafschaft Northumberland. Geschichte Anfang des 13. Jahrhunderts ließ vermutlich David Linsey in seiner Grundherrschaft Chirdon ein befestigtes Hallenhaus im damals für die Gegend typischen Stil erbauen. Das Haus stand auf einer Hügelkette, war zweistöckig, hatte besonders dicke Wände und das Erdgeschoss war mit Säulen versehen. Im Nordwesten war es durch einen tiefen Burggraben geschützt. In jeder Giebelwand befand sich eine Schießscharte in der Mitte und in den beiden anderen Wänden je drei weitere. 1237 wurde Dally Castle erstmals urkundlich erwähnt. 1289 konfiszierte es König Eduard I. und gab es 1296 John Swinburne zu Lehen. Um 1300 wurde Dally Castle zu einem dreistöckigen Wohnturm mit quadratischen Türmen an drei der Gebäudeecken umgebaut. 1326, erneut in den Händen der Krone, diesmal unter König Eduard II., wurde es von den schottischen Truppen bei einem ihrer Überfälle auf Nordengland niedergebrannt. Im Jahre 1604 befand sich die wieder aufgebaute Burg in Händen der Familie Dodds. Im 18. Jahrhundert war das Anwesen bereits ohne Dach, und Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts waren die meisten Bausteine zur Verwendung in anderen Gebäuden der Gegend abtransportiert. Weitere Ruinen Unmittelbar östlich anschließend an die Ruinen von Dally Castle fanden sich die Fundamente eines Gebäudes, das man für eine Kapelle hält. Weiter östlich befinden sich Spuren von Fundamenten eines kleineren Hauses mit quadratischem Grundriss. Dally Castle House Dally Castle House, ein Bauernhaus, wurde im 18. Jahrhundert neben der Burg errichtet. Einzelnachweise

Dalton Castle, Cumbria

Dalton Castle is a Grade I listed 14th-century peel tower in Dalton-in-Furness, Cumbria, England. Constructed during a period of Scottish raids on Furness, it served as the administrative and judicial centre of the lordship of Furness Abbey, functioning as a courthouse and prison as well as a defensive structure. Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1537, the castle remained in use as a courthouse for more than three centuries. It is a scheduled monument and has been owned by the National Trust since 1965. Description Dalton Castle is located in Dalton-in-Furness, Cumbria, situated on a hill in Market Place, at the western end of the town's Market Street. It is a peel tower with walls around 1.8 metres (6 ft) thick, built of limestone rubble with red sandstone dressings. The rectangular tower survives as a two-storey structure, although corbels within the building indicate former floor levels. Architectural features include a spiral stair turret, medieval fireplaces and an ashlar parapet with surviving medieval details. Although the interior has been extensively altered, much of the medieval exterior remains intact. The castle is now a Grade I listed building and a scheduled monument. It is owned by the National Trust and is open to visitors during the summer months. The site includes a display about local painter George Romney. History The castle was probably constructed in the mid-14th century by the monks of Furness Abbey, during a period of Scottish raids on the Furness peninsula. Dalton was at the time the principal settlement of the Furness peninsula, and the castle served as the administrative and judicial centre of the abbey's lordship, combining defensive, judicial and custodial functions. The building housed the manorial court of Furness and also functioned as a prison. Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1537, the castle passed from Furness Abbey to the Crown and continued to be used as a courthouse for more than three centuries. The building was repaired in 1545, remodelled around 1704, substantially altered by the architects Sharpe and Paley in 1856, and reroofed in 1907. Ownership later passed through a succession of aristocratic families before the 8th Duke of Buccleuch donated the castle to the National Trust in 1965.

Dalton Hall, Cumbria

Dalton Hall is a country house near Burton-in-Kendal in northern England. The hall lies within the county palatine of Lancaster, while Burton lies in the historic county of Westmorland. Both have formed part of Cumbria since 1974. The hall has been in the ownership of the Hornby family since the late 18th century. Major additions were made to the large Georgian mansion in 1859–60 by Edmund Geoffrey Stanley Hornby (1839-1923), a Deputy Lieutenant for Lancashire, son and heir of Edmund Hornby (1773-1857), MP, to the designs of the Lancaster architect Edward Graham Paley. The building was demolished in 1968 and replaced in 1968–72 by a much smaller new house designed by Clough Williams-Ellis, his last commission. Pevsner described it as "a stately doll's house" which "sits inside the ghost of its predecessor". The outbuildings have been converted to serve a number of commercial purposes, including rental cottages, a self-storage facility, and the Dalton Hall Business Centre. Estate In 2018 the Dalton Estate included three farms: Coat Green Farm – a tenanted mixed dairy farm. Dalton Old Hall – a tenanted mixed beef and sheep farm. Russell Farm – a tenanted farm. In addition the estate owns the following 18 dwellings: Bell House – 4 bedroom detached house Crow Trees – 3 bedroom detached cottage Burton Lodge – 2 bedroom gate lodge Dalton Lodge – 2 bedroom gate lodge 3 Forestry Houses – 3 bedroom 1950's semi-detached 4 Forestry Houses – 3 bedroom 1950's semi-detached Home Farm – 3 bedroom house – AVAILABLE TO LET Keeper's Cottage – 3 bedroom detached cottage c/w barn 1 Park View 3 bedroom attached cottage 2 Park View – 4 bedroom attached cottage 1 Woodside Cottages – 3 bedroom 1960's semi-detached 2 Woodside Cottages – 3 bedroom 1960's semi-detached Old Post Office Flat, Kirkby Stephen – 2 bedroom apartment Hornby family prominent members of the Hornby family include: Edmund Hornby (1773-1857), MP, whose mother was a daughter of James Smith-Stanley, Lord Strange (1716–1771), (son and heir apparent of Edward Stanley, 11th Earl of Derby (1689-1776) of Knowsley Hall in Lancashire) and a sister of Edward Smith-Stanley, 12th Earl of Derby (1752-1834). He himself married his first cousin Lady Charlotte Stanley (d.1805), a daughter of the 12th Earl of Derby. Edmund Hornby's nephew was thus Edward Smith-Stanley, 14th Earl of Derby (1799-1869), thrice Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (1852, 1858–9, 1866-8). Admiral Sir Phipps Hornby (1785-1867), younger brother of Edmund Hornby (1773-1857). See also List of non-ecclesiastical works by E. G.
