Knottingley TMD

Knottingley TMD is a traction maintenance depot located in Knottingley, West Yorkshire, England. The depot is situated on the Pontefract Line and is near Knottingley station. It opened in 1967 to maintain the locomotives and hopper wagons for a planned 75 Merry-go-round trains a day, expected to use the Wakefield and Goole line. History In 1976, Class 03, 04, 08 shunters and Class 47 locomotives could be seen at the depot. During the late 1970s, 1980s and 1990s the depot was home to Class 56 and from the mid eighties, Class 58 locomotives. When the depot opened in July 1967, it was given the depot code of 56A, which had previously been a code used in Wakefield for a shed that had closed in June 1967. Later that year, it was renumbered to 55G, however since 1973 when the TOPS system was introduced, the depot code has been KY. At the time that the TOPS system was being rolled out, Knottingley was using a separate computer system called Airepower which allocated the 13 locomotives and 45 traincrew needed to run all the coal trains every week. Allocation In 1980, the depot received Class 56s, which were to become a staple locomotive on coal traffic in the area until the Class 66 locomotives appeared in 1998. In 2016, the depot's allocation consisted of DB Cargo UK Class 60 and 66 locomotives. Later years Of the three power stations the depot was built to serve, Ferrybridge was closed on 31 March 2016, while Eggborough was officially decommissioned in February 2018. However, the depot remained busy with gypsum and biomass traffic, particularly for the remaining Power Station at Drax, with workings from the Humber ports at Hull and Immingham. In early 2021, the office complex at the depot, which was built in the 1990s, was demolished. The sidings were being used at the same time by Riviera Trains to refit Mark 1 and Mark 2 railway coaches. References
Upminster Depot

Upminster Depot is a London Underground in Cranham in the London Borough of Havering. The depot is located beyond Upminster station, the terminus of the District line. History The depot was built in the mid 1950s as part of the segregation of District line tracks from the London, Tilbury and Southend line. District line trains were being stabled at Little Ilford Depot, however this land was required by British Railways. A new depot was therefore built at Upminster, beyond the terminus of the District line station. The depot opened in 1959, the first Underground depot to be built after the Second World War. Allocation As of 2016, the depot's allocation consists of London Underground S7 Stock, the only rolling stock used on the District line. Previously the depot was allocated D78 Stock trains.

Cotchford Farm

Cotchford Farm is a farmhouse building to the southwest of the village of Hartfield, East Sussex, in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, in southern England. Its owners have included author A. A. Milne, who wrote all of his Winnie-the-Pooh books at the house, often inspired by the local landscape, and musician Brian Jones, who drowned in the swimming pool at the house on 3 July 1969. It is listed Grade II on the National Heritage List for England. The building stands on Cotchford Lane, a private lane off the B2026 between Hartfield and Duddleswell. It is located close to the Ashdown Forest, and roughly equidistant from East Grinstead about 10 miles (16 km) to the west on the A22, Royal Tunbridge Wells to the east on the A26, and Uckfield to the south. The building is a timber-framed farmhouse, with "L" plan, possibly dating to the 17th century or perhaps the mid-16th century. It was probably originally built with wattle and daub infilled walls and a thatched roof, but was later refaced with red brick on the ground floor, and the roof rehung with tiles. The main block has three storeys oriented approximately north–south, with a two-storey wing to the south, and the kitchen in a single storey addition off the north end of the main block. Inside, the house has a split-level drawing room with inglenook fireplace, and views in four directions but mainly over the garden to the east and south, and also an oak-panelled dining room. Upstairs are six bedrooms, four on the first floor and two on the second floor. The building was bought as a country home by the author A. A. Milne in 1925. Milne died at Cotchford Farm in 1956. There are statues of Milne's son, Christopher Robin, and his character Owl in the garden, and also a sundial with a gnomon in the shape of a quill and a base carved with images of Pooh characters, including Piglet, Tigger and Roo, the initials "AAM", the words "This warm and sunny spot belongs to Pooh, And here he wonders what it's time to do". A stream runs through trees along the southern boundary of the garden, with Poohsticks Bridge approximately 0.5 miles (0.80 km) upstream to the west. After being owned by an American couple, the Taylors, who installed an outdoor swimming pool, the house was bought by Rolling Stones band member Brian Jones. He drowned in the swimming pool in July 1969, aged 27. The house retains some of the fittings he installed, including coloured lighting and glazing. It was bought by Alistair Johns in 1970 and became a Grade II listed building in 1982. The house was put on sale by Johns's wife, Harriet Johns, for £2m in April 2012, including its 9.5 acres (3.8 ha) plot with the heated outdoor swimming pool and fishpond. It failed to sell, and was put up for sale again in 2016, and was sold for £1.8m in June 2017.

Cotchford Farm

La Cotchford Farm è una casa di campagna inglese a sud-ovest del villaggio di Hartfield, nell'East Sussex, nel sud dell'Inghilterra. L'edificio si trova su Cotchford Lane, una corsia privata al largo della B2026 tra Hartfield e Duddleswell. Si trova vicino alla foresta di Ashdown e all'incirca equidistante da East Grinstead a circa 10 miglia (16 km) a ovest sulla A22, Royal Tunbridge Wells a est sulla A26 e Uckfield a sud. Fra i suoi proprietari figurano l'autore A. A. Milne (1882-1956) e il musicista Brian Jones, annegato nella piscina della casa nel luglio 1969. È elencato di grado II nella National Heritage List per l'Inghilterra. Architettura L'edificio è una casa a graticcio, con pianta a "L", forse risalente al XVII secolo o forse alla metà del XVI secolo. Probabilmente era originariamente costruito con muri tamponati in canniccio e fango ed un tetto di paglia, ma in seguito fu rifatto con mattoni rossi al piano terra ed il tetto con tegole. Il blocco principale ha tre piani orientati approssimativamente da nord a sud, con un'ala a due piani a sud, e la cucina su un unico piano in aggiunta all'estremità nord del blocco principale. All'interno, la casa dispone di un salotto su due livelli con camino inglenook e vista in quattro direzioni, ma principalmente sul giardino a est e sud, e anche una sala da pranzo con pannelli di quercia. Al piano superiore sono sei camere da letto, quattro al primo piano e due al secondo piano. Storia L'edificio fu acquistato come casa di campagna dall'autore A. A. Milne nel 1925 (non sono noti i proprietari precedenti). Milne scrisse tutti i suoi libri di Winnie-the-Pooh a casa e morì a Cotchford Farm nel 1956. Nella proprietà vi sono statue del figlio di Milne, Christopher Robin Milne (1920-1996), del gufo Uffa, e anche una meridiana con un gnomone a forma di una penna e una base scolpita con immagini di personaggi Pooh, tra cui Pimpi, Tigro e Roo, la sigla "AAM", la scritta "This warm and sunny spot belongs to Pooh, And here he wonders what it's time to do" ("Questo posto caldo e soleggiato appartiene a Pooh, e qui si chiede cosa sia il momento di fare"). Un ruscello scorre tra gli alberi lungo il confine meridionale del giardino, con il ponte Poohsticks a circa 0,5 miglia (0,80 km) a monte a ovest. Dopo essere stata di proprietà di una coppia americana, i Taylor, che installarono una piscina all'aperto, la casa è stata acquistata dal membro della band dei Rolling Stones, Brian Jones, che vi morì annegando nella piscina nel luglio 1969. La casa conserva alcuni degli accessori che ha installato, comprese le luci colorate e i vetri. È stato acquistato da Alistair Johns nel 1970 ed è diventato un edificio di interesse storico culturale di Grado II nel 1982. La casa è stata messa in vendita dalla moglie di Johns, Harriet Johns, per 2 milioni di sterline nell'aprile 2012, compreso il terreno di 3,8 ettari con la piscina esterna riscaldata e lo stagno. Rimasta invenduta, la proprietà è stata rimessa in vendita nel 2016 ed è stata venduta per 1,8 milioni di sterline nel giugno 2017. Note

Highgate Stadium

Highgate Stadium is a greyhound racing stadium in Nicholas Lane, Goldthorpe, South Yorkshire, England. Origins The stadium was constructed on the west side of Nicholas Lane and was surrounded entirely by three railway lines. The Highgate colliery was nearby to the east. History The area contained a strong mining community and attracted patronage from nearby Rotherham, Doncaster and Barnsley. In the 1970s racing was held on Tuesday evenings and Saturday afternoons over 340 and 450 yards. It was an all-grass track and was described as a good galloping track with wide easy bends and an 'Inside Sumner' hare system. By the late 1980s the circumference was 440 metres with race distances of 260, 304, 414, 590 and 740 metres. The track was sand with racing on Monday, Thursday and Saturday evenings. In 2008 the track was featured in a BBC documentary called 'The flapping track'. The official programme preview was listed as "The story of South Yorkshire's Highgate Greyhound Stadium, which each week attracts a motley crowd of characters to the world of flapping - independent, unregulated greyhound racing". Until March 2019 racing took place every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday. Facilities include a stadium cafe, a fully licensed bar and fast food area. It is one of only five independent (unaffiliated to a governing body) tracks remaining today. On 26 March 2019 the management of the stadium announced via their official Facebook page that greyhound racing at the stadium had been suspended for the foreseeable future due to a lack of entries from trainers aside from those who were long-term affiliated with the stadium.

Wheatley Hill Stadium

Wheatley Hill Stadium is a greyhound racing stadium in Wheatley Hill, County Durham. It is situated to the west of Peterlee, near Thornley and Wingate. It is currently closed following a serious fire but usually races on Friday evenings at 7.15pm, Facilities included a club, bar, and tote which were destroyed in the fire. Origins The track was constructed for the mining community and is known to have been active in 1947. It is known to have hosted whippet racing as early as 1936 and likely to have raced some greyhound racing as well. The stadium is situated on the north side Black Lane that runs off the Avenue. History Norman Fannon bought the track in 1965 and spent a large sum of money improving the facilities. A custom made hare called the McFannon (made from hundreds of ex-Army bedsteads) was Fannon's favourite. The track was very tight, almost circular at the time. During the 1970s, racing was held on Wednesday and Saturday evenings at 7.30pm over race distances of 270, 450, and 600 yards. There was an 'Inside Sumner' hare system and the track was all-grass. Facilities included a licensed club. Fannon remained the owner and, by the late 1980s, the track had become sand and had a McGee hare system. Kennels for 50 greyhounds were on site with car parking for 200 vehicles. The facilities included a bar, covered stand, and refreshment room with racing on Wednesday and Friday evenings. Fannon died in 2006. Closure The track was closed in November 2019 following a serious fire on Sunday 17 November and looks unlikely to re-open. References
Peckham Arch

The Peckham Arch is a 35m-span structure at the north end of Rye Lane in Peckham, London. It was constructed in 1994 and was designed by the architects Troughton McAslan as monument to and an instigator of regeneration in a borough which had suffered from years of decline. The Arch was the first of three capital projects around Peckham Square and was followed by the construction of Peckham Library, completed in 2000. The Arch is home to a light sculpture conceived by the artist Ron Haselden. Potential demolition In November 2016 it was announced that the Arch would be demolished to make way for new blocks of flats. A 2015 plan for the site included a total of 100 flats across nine sites surrounding the square, were the arch to be removed. Removal of the arch will allow for the construction of two new four- and six-storey buildings, containing 19 flats, six of which will be social housing; two of these will be within existing buildings at 91–93 Peckham High Street. Community campaigners have criticised Southwark London Borough Council's scheme for occupying and selling off rare covered public space for private development. The scheme has been further criticised for failing to demonstrate public support for removal of the arch. Mature trees and a green link connecting Rye Lane to Burgess Park would also be lost if the arch were to be demolished. A local architect, Benedict O'Looney, said it would be a "great tragedy" if the arch were removed, branding the council's proposal as "insane" and describing it as "an iconic symbol of Peckham". In 2016 the borough turned down an application placed by 21 Southwark residents to list Peckham Arch as an "Asset of Community Value". Planning permission for Southwark Council's proposal was granted in November 2016 and expired in November 2019. References
Royal Hospital, Wolverhampton

The Royal Hospital, Wolverhampton was an acute general hospital in the All Saints inner city area of Wolverhampton. History The hospital was designed by Edward Banks in the classical style and built between 1846 and 1849 on land acquired from the Henry Vane, 2nd Duke of Cleveland. It was opened as the South Staffordshire Hospital but became the Wolverhampton and Staffordshire General Hospital in the second half of the 19th century. The internal layout rapidly became outdated when the pavilion system, where patients were separated by type of illness, was introduced at new hospitals in 1852. Additions included a new wing for in-patients as well as a new block for out-patients in 1872, a fever ward in 1873, a medical library in 1877, an additional two-storey in-patient wing in 1912 and the vast King Edward VII Memorial Wing in 1923. It was renamed the Royal Hospital, Wolverhampton in December 1928. A further block of in-patient wards was completed in the late 1930s. The hospital closed in June 1997 with services being transferred to New Cross Hospital; the site was acquired for retail development by Tesco in 2001, but the development stalled in January 2015 and the site was later sold on to the Homes and Communities Agency for residential development in March 2016. Notable staff Henrietta Hannath (1864–1939) was matron of the Royal Hospital, Wolverhampton from 1906 to 1923. She trained at King's College Hospital, London, worked at The London Hospital under Eva Luckes as a Home Sister, and also taught Sick Cookery to the nursing staff. During the First World War, Hannath was posted as matron of the 5th Northern General Hospital, Leicester, and returned to Wolverhampton in 1919. She received her RRC in 1917, and was awarded a bar in 1920. Hannath retired as Matron in the Territorial Army Nursing Service in 1923. She was a founder member of the College of Nursing, the forerunner to the Royal College of Nursing. Notable patients Percy Thrower (1913-1988), gardener and broadcaster, died at the hospital.
