Handyside Bridge

Handyside Bridge, also known as Derwent Bridge, is a former railway bridge in Darley Abbey, Derbyshire, England which was converted to a foot bridge in 1976 following closure of the railway in 1968. Named for its builders, Andrew Handyside & Co., it is a tied-arch bridge constructed from riveted wrought iron and is situated at the entrance to Darley Park in Derby. It spans the River Derwent and was part of the Great Northern Railway Derbyshire Extension popularly known as the (Derby) Friargate Line. The next station to the south was Friargate which has another bridge built by Andrew Handyside. History The bridge was built by Andrew Handyside and Company in 1878 when the Derbyshire and Staffordshire Extension of the Great Northern Railway reached Derby. Designed by Richard Johnson, the GNR's chief engineer for the extension, it consists of a single span of 140 feet (43 metres), 16 feet (4.9 m) high at the centre, supported by two bow-shaped wrought iron trusses. The design avoided the need for a supporting pier in the river, keeping the Derwent clear for navigation. During construction a test was carried out to prove the bridge would hold the weight of the expected rail traffic, in which Handyside successfully ran six locomotives with a combined weight of 432 tons across it. The bridge carried trains from 1878 to 1968, with the last passenger train crossing on 5 September 1964 and the last goods train May 1968 by the Stephenson Locomotive Society, when the branch was closed by the Beeching cuts. The deck, which used to carry the track, is suspended from steel segmental arches of a lattice construction, with stone abutments. When the bridge was built a Cantilever pedestrian footpath was attached to its North-side to allow workers to cross. This was removed in 1978. The Handyside-owned Britannia Foundry works were 200 metres downstream of the bridge and were served by sidings connected to the mainline via a branch line. This spur allowed products from the foundry to be transported by goods train. Another substantial business nearby was the refrigeration business of Sir Alfred Seale Haslam. The bridge was designated a Grade II listed building on 2 March 1976 and now forms part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site. The next bridge downstream to cross over the River Derwent is Saint Mary's Bridge which is 448 metres away and the next bridge upstream Haslam's Lane Toll bridge which is 1,541 metres away.

Hanley Castle

Hanley Castle ist die Ruine einer Burg im gleichnamigen Dorf zwischen den Städten Malvern und Upton-upon-Severn in der englischen Grafschaft Worcestershire. Burgruine und Dorf liegen nahe dem Fluss Severn. Geschichte Im 12. Jahrhundert wurde die dicht bewaldete Gegend Sitz der Verwaltung der Malvern Chase, eines königlichen Jagdgebietes zwischen den Malvern Hills und dem Fluss Severn. Dort gab es einst eine normannische Burg, die Johann Ohneland 1206–1212 als Jagdschloss in der Nähe des heutigen Dorfes erbauen ließ. Im Jahre 1216 verlehnte es König Heinrich III. an Gilbert de Clare, 4. Earl of Hertford, und es blieb bis 1314 in den Händen der mächtigen Familie de Clare. Danach ging die Burg durch die Hände unterschiedlicher Eigner und fiel schließlich zusammen mit der Grundherrschaft 1487 an die Krone. In der Folge verfiel die Burg langsam und wurde daher in der Regierungszeit König Heinrichs VIII. größtenteils abgerissen. Das Mauerwerk des einzig verbleibenden Turms soll 1795 zur Reparatur der Severn-Brücke in Upton upon Severn verwendet worden sein. Ein modernes Haus, das auf demselben Stück Land stand, brannte im Januar 1904 nieder. Einige wenige Spuren der alten Burg sind erhalten, ein trockener Burggraben und ein Mound. Das Gelände ist mit hohen Koniferen bewachsen. Einzelnachweise Quellen und Weblinks Hanley Castle. British History Online. Hanley Castle. Gatehouse Gazetteer.

Hanley Castle (castle)

Hanley Castle was a Norman castle that stood to the south of the present-day site of the village of Hanley Castle, which lies 2 km north of Upton-upon-Severn, in the county of Worcestershire, England, United Kingdom. (grid reference SO837415). 13th-century castle The castle was built by King John between 1206 and 1212. In 1216, it was given by Henry III to Gilbert de Clare, 4th Earl of Hertford and it remained in the powerful de Clare family until 1314. After that date there was a succession of owners until the castle was surrendered with the manor to the Crown in 1487. The castle gradually fell into decay and was mostly demolished due to its ruined state during the reign of Henry VIII. The masonry of the only remaining tower is said to have been removed in 1795 to repair the bridge at Upton upon Severn. No traces of the castle building now remain. A modern house which stood on some portion of the site was destroyed by fire in January 1904. The site is marked by tall conifers and a dry remnant of the moat ditch and bank.

Hanley Park

Hanley Park is an urban park in Stoke-on-Trent, England. Officially opened on 20 June 1897, it occupies about 63 acres (25 ha) of land. The park was developed by the town of Hanley over a period of five years and cost approximately £70,000. It has been described as a good example of a late Victorian municipal park, and is listed Grade II* in Historic England's Register of Parks and Gardens. The park received a Green Flag Award in July 2023. Site The area previously comprised a large waste ground called 'Stoke Fields', cut in two by the Caldon Canal. The land was purchased from the estate of Shelton Hall which stood a third of a mile to the north between Cemetery Road and Caledonian Road, and is now substantially outside the area of Hanley Park. Design of the park The park was developed under the supervision of the landscape architect Thomas Hayton Mawson of Windermere, who created Burslem Park around the same time. Mawson's design makes use of terracotta to highlight features such as the axis between one of two footbridges across the canal and the pavilion. The pavilion, which is arguably the park's main focal point, was completed in 1896, and was designed by Mawson's junior partner Dan Gibson. The bandstand between the pavilion and the canal was the gift of Mr George Howson, a local pottery owner. The southwest end of the park consists of a lake which is fed from the canal. Fishing is permitted. Next to the lake is a word sculpture that reads 'There are sounds all around, but nothing matters except the sound of your voice' and 'I see you standing there as if on a distant horizon, I reach out and our hands touch' Other facilities in the park include a basketball court, a football court and four children's play areas. At the western end of Hanley Park, adjacent to Stoke-on-Trent College, previously known as Cauldon College, there is the small 12-acre (4.9 ha) Cauldon Park. The Hanley Park Fete was held from 1897 to 1939 and featured a funfair, side shows and a display of fireworks. The Potteries Central Horse Parade (open to anyone living within 10 miles of Hanley Town Hall) was also held annually (but it was never resumed after World War II). Restoration In June 2015, it was announced that a £4.5 million Heritage Lottery Fund grant had been secured, which would allow for the restoration of the pavilion, boathouse, canal bridges, lake and fountains. Hanley parkrun Hanley Park hosts a free, weekly, timed 5km parkrun every Saturday at 9 a.m. The first Hanley parkrun took place in September 2011. References External links "Hanley Park".

Алконбері (авіабаза)

Авіаба́за Алконбері (англ. Royal Air Force Alconbury, (IATA: AYH, ICAO: EGWZ) — військово-повітряна база Королівських ПС Великої Британії поблизу Гантінгдона, яка протягом багатьох років використовувалася ПС США. Аеродром розташований у цивільному окрузі Стьюкліс, неподалік від сіл Грейт-Стьюклі, Літтл-Стьюклі та Алконбері. Польоти більше не проводяться на цьому місці, більша частина землі, включаючи злітно-посадкову смугу, була продана у 2009 році, щоб стати новим поселенням Алконбері Вілд. Історія бази Авіабаза була відкрита в 1938 році для використання силами Бомбардувального командування Королівських ПС. З 1942 по 1945 рік інфраструктура авіабази використовувалася Повітряними силами армії США. На неї базувалася 93-тя бомбардувальна група 8-ї повітряної армії; серед відвідувачів був король Георг VI, який 13 листопада 1942 року відвідав це місце та побачив там стратегічні бомбардувальники Boeing B-17. 8 січня 2015 року Пентагон оголосив, що авіабази Алконбері та Моулсворт будуть закриті до 2020 року. Більшість підрозділів в Алконбері та Моулсворт мали бути переміщені до авіабази Кроутон у Нортгемптонширі разом з персоналом. Пізніше це рішення було скасовано з міркувань економічної ефективності, а авіабаза Алконбері залишилася допоміжною базою для Об'єднаного аналітичного центру.

Hannington transmitting station

Hannington transmitting station is a television and radio transmitting station located on Cottington Hill near the village of Hannington, Hampshire. The transmitter is actually in the parish of Kingsclere. The station provides broadcast services to Berkshire, north Hampshire and parts of Surrey and Wiltshire, and includes a 131.4-metre (431 ft) guyed steel lattice mast. This includes cities and towns such as Basingstoke, Reading, Farnborough, Winchester, Andover, Newbury, Amesbury and Camberley. Surmounting the mast is a GRP aerial cylinder, which contains the UHF television transmitting antennas, which brings the overall height of the mast to 151.9 metres (498 ft). Hannington's digital broadcasts were severely attenuated to the east before the digital switchover (DSO) so as not to cause co-channel interference with Guildford transmitter. Those restrictions were removed soon after DSO in 2012. The transmitter has 8 local relays: Alton, Aldbourne, Chisbury, Hemdean, Hurstbourne Tarrant, Lambourn, The Bournes and Tidworth. Broadcast interruptions 1977 Ashtar Galactic Command message On Saturday 26 November 1977 at around 5:10 pm, the Southern ITV broadcast from this transmitter had its UHF sound transmission hi-jacked by unknown agents. At that time Hannington re-broadcast off-air UHF transmissions from Rowridge on the Isle of Wight. The UHF audio signal from Rowridge was swamped by a signal presumably from a location much closer to the Hannington transmitter, overriding the sound of the local ITV station Southern Television and broadcast their own audio message purporting to be from Vrillon, an alien from an institution calling itself the Ashtar Galactic Command. The message, transmitted over an ITN News bulletin and a subsequent Merrie Melodies cartoon, lasted six minutes. Despite extensive investigations by Hampshire Police, the Independent Broadcasting Authority and Southern Television, those responsible have never been identified, and the potential culprits have ranged from students to university professors to disgruntled television technicians. 1994 World Cup Final blackout On 17 July 1994 vandals sabotaged the mast's power supply during the 1994 FIFA World Cup Final, meaning that hundreds of thousands of viewers missed about an hour of the match. Services available Analogue radio Digital radio Digital television Before switchover All remaining Low power DVB-T transmission ceased on 22 February 2012.
