Lytton Mausoleum

The Lytton Mausoleum is a family mausoleum in Knebworth Park, Hertfordshire, England. Description The mausoleum was commissioned by Elizabeth Bulwer-Lytton (née Warburton-Lytton) and built in 1817 in memory of her parents Richard Warburton-Lytton (1745–1810) and Elizabeth (née Jodrell) of Knebworth House. It is set in parkland at a distance from the Church of St Mary and St Thomas, a Grade I listed building. Until the construction of the mausoleum, the Lytton family of Knebworth House used the Lytton Chapel, attached to the north side of St Mary's church, for interments. This chapel was rebuilt around 1710 to house three exceptionally fine monuments dedicated to members of the family. Burials Inside the mausoleum are a number of coffins, including that of Elizabeth Bulwer-Lytton (1770–1843). A casket holds the ashes of Lady Constance Bulwer-Lytton (1869–1923). She joined the suffragette movement, and, as her epitaph states "sacrificed her health and talents in helping to bring victory to this cause". Architecture and conservation The architect of the octagonal, stone building was John Buonarotti Papworth. His design is neoclassical. The roof supports a sarcophagus with shell acroteria. The building and the railings which enclose it were Grade II listed in 1968. References External links Lytton Mausoleum at Find a Grave

Mossbourne Victoria Park Academy

Mossbourne Victoria Park Academy, or MVPA, is a coeducational secondary school located in the Victoria Park area of London, England, facing Well Street Common. Description It is the second school to be named under Mossbourne Academy. The school was created in 2014: the building formerly used by Cardinal Pole Roman Catholic School was first built to drawings by Robert Lewis Roumieu for the French Hospital (La Providence), which opened there in 1865. In the summer of 2019 the first cohort's GCSE results placed the academy in the top 65 schools in England for student progress. The headteacher is Matthew Toothe. As of 2024, the school's most recent inspection by Ofsted was in 2023, with a judgement of Outstanding. Buildings The school has two buildings: the Huguenot building and the Carroll building which is new and was officially opened in January 2015. Behaviour policy In November 2024, The Observer reported that parents and teachers have spoken out about the school's behavioural policies, saying that children's mental health has been damaged by "teachers humiliating and "screaming" at pupils". Parents said that there had been five cases of children "with no prior incontinence issues soiling themselves, or menstruating through their uniforms, because they were not allowed to go to the toilet or were too scared to ask". They described children who had become anxious or depressed as a result of their school experiences, and asked that Hackney local authority carry out a safeguarding review. Leaders at the school said that "We were saddened to read these accounts as we do not recognise the characterisation of the school". Since the original article The Observer received further allegations about schools run by the Mossbourne Federation, totaling from almost 140 parents, students and teachers. In December 2024, the Department for Education said "These allegations are deeply distressing. ... We are working urgently with the local authority and the Mossbourne Federation to establish the facts and any necessary action". Hackney's independent child safeguarding commissioner convened a multi-agency meeting which decided to undertake a child safeguarding practice review led by Alan Wood, former director of children's services in Hackney. In December 2024 The Observer published a letter signed by 314 current and former parents which presented another side to the argument, defending the school's positive impact on the students under its care. Alumni Sonny Perkins, a professional football player who has played for West Ham United F.C. and Leeds United F.C., studied at Mossbourne. References
Charles Clifford Dental Hospital

The Charles Clifford Dental Hospital is a major dental facility in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. It is managed by the Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and affiliated with the University of Sheffield. History The hospital has its origins in the Dental Department of the Sheffield Royal Hospital which was established in 1897. The facilities at the Dental Department became cramped and so Colonel Sir Charles Clifford, who had commanded 126 Brigade Royal Field Artillery, donated land for a new purpose-built facility and funding for dental equipment in 1935. The foundation stone was laid by Hilary Marquand, Minister of Health, in September 1951 and the facility was opened by the Duchess of Gloucester in 1953. A large extension was added in 1966. In 1995, the hospital was absorbed into the Central Sheffield University Hospitals NHS Trust, which subsequently merged with the Northern General Hospital NHS Trust on 1 April 2001 to create the Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. The Trust was awarded Foundation status on 1 July 2004. A major refurbishment programme of the hospital was completed in 2009. An inspection by the Care Quality Commission in December 2015 found that the overall performance was good with responsiveness rated as outstanding. References

190 Strand

190 Strand is a mixed-use building development by St Edward Homes, part of Berkeley Group Holdings, on the south side of Strand in the City of Westminster, London. Site The development has six main buildings. The works are a mixture of structural and non-structural alterations to buildings prominent already by their height and modernity in this part of Westminster and complete demolition of certain existing edifices, their redesign and replacement. The site measures approximately 0.5 hectares (1.2 acres) on the south side of Strand, facing St Clement Danes church, between Arundel Street and Milford Lane. Upon completion, the modern Maltravers Street, an east–west alley between Arundel Street and Milford Lane, ceased to exist as part of the approved plans, but Tweezer's Alley on the southern side has been enhanced. Immediately to the south of the site is Globe House, the headquarters of British American Tobacco. Planning permission for the buildings was granted in 2011 to a design by GRID Architects. Building names The principal buildings of the development have been named after local people and places. Clement House after nearby St Clement Danes church, Wren House after Sir Christopher Wren's rebuilding of St Clement Danes, Gladstone House after the statue of prime minister William Gladstone nearby on Strand, Milford House after Milford Lane, Savoy House after the Savoy Hotel, and Temple House after the Temple legal district.

Pergins Island

Pergins Island is a small, uninhabited island in Holes Bay, an embayment off Poole Harbour in Dorset on the south coast of England. It is not accessible to the public. Geography Pergins Island is located in the north of Holes Bay, north of the railway embankment of the South West Main Line which crosses the bay from east to west. It is roughly oval in shape, has an area of 6.2061 hectares, and is densely covered with broadleaved, mixed and yew woodland. History Pergins Island was known for generations as 'Doughty's Island' (pronounced "Dowdy's") after Sir Edward Doughty who bought the nearby Upton House in 1828 along with its estate, which included the island. According to local hearsay, Doughty, a devout Catholic, had given permission for the poor people of Poole and Hamworthy to use the island for camping to escape the squalor of their homes. The Old Town in Poole used to contain slums which became very unhealthy during the warmer summer months and so mothers would take their children to camp on the island while the fathers continued to work, visiting their families when they could. The island, like the rest of the Upton Estate, belongs to the Poole Borough Council. References External links Pergins Island within the Poole Harbour SSSI.
Turing House School

Turing House School is a co-educational comprehensive secondary school which was opened in 2015 in the London Borough of Richmond, south-west London, under the Government's free schools initiative. The proposal for the school was initiated by local parents in 2011 in partnership with the Russell Education Trust (RET), who operate four other free schools in the south and south-west of England. Turing House School is named in honour of Alan Turing, the famous mathematician who lived for a while in nearby Hampton when he worked at the National Physical Laboratory. The school is governed by RET, with some governance responsibilities delegated to the school's local governing body. Performance Like other schools, latest exam results and related data are published in the Department for Education's national tables, and latest inspection reports are published by Ofsted. Site history Due to delays in securing a permanent site large enough for a secondary school, Turing House was initially opened in a converted office block in Teddington, using local sports facilities at Bushy Park, and, from 2018, a second site in Hampton. It moved to its permanent site in Whitton, in April 2022. The site is adjacent to Borough Cemetery, Heathfield Recreation Ground, and Sempervirens Nursery (which is also the head office of the nursery's owner, Kingston Landscape Group). The permanent site resulted in controversy due to the Metropolitan Open Land designation. Admissions Admissions for Year 7, and in-year admissions for all year groups are handled by Richmond Council's schools admission team. The 2019 Year 7 oversubscription criteria allocate places by distance from two admissions points in Fulwell and Heathfield at a ratio of 80:20.

Ambassadors Theatre

L'Ambassadors Theatre est un théâtre du West End situé à Londres dans West Street, près de Cambridge Circus sur la Charing Cross Road dans la cité de Westminster. Construit dans l’intention d’en faire un lieu intime, il est l’un des plus petits théâtre du West End, avec une capacité de 444 places. Sa construction, due à l'architecte W. G. R. Sprague (en), est entreprise en 1913, mais les travaux sont arrêtés pendant trois années du fait de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. L'Ambassadors Theatre est situé en face du célèbre restaurant The Ivy, repaire favori des gens de théâtre. Il est classé, en mars 1973, GradeII par l’English Héritage. En 1996, le site a été racheté par l'Ambassador Theatre Group, désormais le plus important exploitant de salles dans le West End. Renommé New Ambassadors Theatre en 1999, il a d'abord été divisé en deux petits espaces (en créant un faux plancher au niveau du cercle) et utilisés par le Royal Court, avant de reprendre son nom d'origine. Productions Vivien Leigh fait ses débuts au West End theatre aux Ambassadors, dans The Mask de Virtue en 1935; pièce dans laquelle Laurence Olivier la voit pour la première fois. La Souricière (The Mousetrap) d’Agatha Christie y est joué de 1952 à 1974, avant d’être transférée dans un établissement voisin, plus grand, le Saint-Martin’s theatre, où elle est toujours jouée.

Ambassadors Theatre

L'Ambassadors Theatre è un teatro del West End londinese, sito nella Città di Westminster. Con i suoi 444 posti a sedere, il teatro è uno dei più piccoli del West End. Storia Il teatro, progettato dall'architetto W.G.R. Sprague, fu aperto al pubblico nel 1913. Nel 1973 il teatro è stato registrato come monumento classificato di secondo grado dall'English Heritage. Nel 1996 l'Ambassadors Theatre fu acquistato dall'Ambassador Theatre Group, che divise il teatro così da poter ospitare due spazi differenti per le messe in scena. Il piano superiore fu occupato dalla compagnia della Royal Court Theatre e la programmazione del teatro consisteva soprattutto in opere teatrale poco commerciali, al contrario del resto dell'offerta dei teatri del West End. Nel 1999 la divisione del teatro in due spazi fu eliminata e l'Ambassadors tornò alla pianta originale. Nell'aprile 2017 il teatro fu venduto a Stephen Waley Cohen, che lo rivendette all'ATG nel 2018. Tra il 1952 e il 1974 il teatro ospitò i primi ventidue anni di repliche de La trappola per topi di Agatha Christie, successivamente trasferito al St Martin's Theatre. Nel corso degli anni il teatro ha ospitato opere di Stephen Sondheim, Samuel Beckett, Mark Ravenhill ed Eve Ensler, mentre le scene dell'Ambassadors sono state calcate da attori del calibro di Vivien Leigh, Sheridan Smith, Cillian Murphy e Taron Egerton.

Captain Kidd, Wapping

The Captain Kidd is a pub in Wapping, East London, that is named after the seventeenth-century pirate William Kidd, who was executed at the nearby Execution Dock. The pub is a Grade II listed building, and was historically used as a coffee warehouse. History The Captain Kidd pub is situated at 108 Wapping High Street, next door to the Marine Police Force headquarters. The building originates in the 19th century as a three-storey brick house, and was remodelled in the Edwardian era. To the rear of the building, there is a former workshop that goes out to a wharf. The building, along with 110 Wapping High Street, are now Grade II listed. In the 1980s, the building became a pub, having previously been a coffee warehouse. It was named after the seventeenth century pirate William Kidd, who was executed at the nearby Execution Dock in 1701. The pub has a nautical theme and retells the story of Captain Kidd and his execution; the layout is designed to be similar to a ship's hulk. It is a Samuel Smith Old Brewery pub, and is situated on Wapping High Street. The entrance has a large archway, and the pub has three floors and a terrace overlooking the River Thames. References
