Hastings Country Park

Hastings Country Park was formed in 1974 and covers 345 hectares (850 acres) east of Hastings in England. Sandstone cliffs, glens covered with gorse and trees, footpaths, nature trails, picnic areas and ample car parking are some of the features at the country park. Set in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it is also a Local Nature Reserve as Hastings Country Park & Fairlight Place Farm. An area of 184.5 hectares (456 acres) has been designated Hastings Cliffs Special Area of Conservation. Most of the park is in Hastings Cliffs to Pett Beach Site of Special Scientific Interest and it is also part of Hastings Cliffs Special Area of Conservation and Dungeness, Romney Marsh and Rye Bay Special Protection Area. Two areas in the park are Geological Conservation Review sites. History The park supported considerable human activity in prehistoric times. Archaeological finds and landmarks date from Palaeolithic, Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age, Iron Age, Romano-British, Saxon, Medieval, post-Medieval, Victorian to World War II periods. A large majority of the park has been identified as an Area of Archaeological Interest, within which, a large area of the East Hill is a designated Ancient Monument. Wildlife Many rare and scarce liverworts, mosses and lichens occur within the ghylls or ravines. Peregrines, black redstarts and fulmars breed on the cliffs. Dartford warblers, stonechats and yellowhammers breed on the gorse-covered hillsides. Many migrants pass through the site in spring and autumn and usually include a few rarities such as Sardinian warbler, red-rumped swallow, and Pallas's leaf warbler, which have all occurred in recent years.

Pier van Hastings

De Pier van Hastings (Engels: Hastings Pier) is een pier in Hastings, aan de zuidoostkust van Engeland. De pier is een van de belangrijkste bezienswaardigheden van de stad. De oorspronkelijk pier werd feestelijk ingehuldigd op 5 augustus 1872. Geschiedenis De eerste pier was van de hand van Eugenius Birch, een 19de-eeuws Engels architect die actief was aan de kust en zich had gespecialiseerd in de bouw van pieren. De pier in victoriaanse architectuur werd gebouwd in 1872 met een lengte van 280 m en een breedte die varieerde van 14 m op het smalste stuk tot 58 meter. Het eerste paviljoen op de kop van de pier bood 2.000 zitplaatsen maar ging op in een brand in 1917. Een nieuw paviljoen opende in 1922. De pier was bijzonder populair tijdens het interbellum maar bleef tot de jaren zestig veel bezoekers lokken. In het paviljoen gingen optredens door van The Rolling Stones, The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Genesis, Tom Jones, Ten Years After en Pink Floyd. Het laatste optreden van Pink Floyd waar ook Syd Barrett mee optrad, op 20 januari 1968, vond plaats in het paviljoen van de pier van Hastings. Het verval werd ingezet met zware stormschade in 1990, de schade werd geschat op meer dan een miljoen Britse pond herstellingskosten. De veiligheid van het publiek liet niet meer toe het bouwwerk volledig te betreden in 1999 tot in juli 2006 de pier door het gemeentebestuur volledig werd afgesloten voor het publiek. Na een gedeeltelijke herstelling was de pier van 4 juli 2007 tot 12 maart 2008 terug deels open voor wandelaars, maar vastgestelde structurele zwaktes noopten tot een nieuwe sluiting. Op 5 oktober 2010 vernielde een brand 95% van de constructie. Na fondsenwerving en een bijdrage van bijna 9 miljoen pond door de Heritage Lottery werd de pier voor 14 miljoen pond herbouwd naar plannen van het architectenbureau dRMM en heropend op 27 april 2016. Het ontwerp van de nieuwe pier won in 2017 de Stirling Prize for architecture, uitgereikt door de Royal Institute of British Architects (Riba). De pier speelt een rol in de langspeelfilm The Dark Man, de televisieserie Foyle's War en de film Byzantium.

Hatch Court

Hatch Court in the parish of Hatch Beauchamp, in Somerset, England, is a grade I listed mansion built in about 1755 in the Palladian style with Bath Stone by the wool merchant John Collins to the design of Thomas Prowse. The site had been occupied since the mediaeval era by various forms of the manor house of the manor of Hatch, the caput of an important feudal barony first held by the Anglo-Norman de Beauchamp family in the 11th century. History John Collines was a wool merchant who built the house in about 1755. He employed as his architect Thomas Prowse a Member of Parliament who designed houses for his friends and had previously designed the nearby Temple of Harmony and had been consulted regarding the building of Hagley Hall in Worcestershire. Architecture The two-storey Bath stone building is in the Palladian style with four square angle towers each of three storeys. The main entrance is via a loggia of five round-headed arches. The interior includes a large hall and a staircase with stone treads and wrought iron balusters. Outbuildings and grounds The gardens contain a walled vegetable garden. During the 18th century extensive pleasure gardens existed which included a grotto with a pool and fireplace. The stable block was built in about 1820 following the demolition of the original stable block designed by Prowse. At the same time a horse engine house was built as a horse mill to power farm machinery, since used for storage, but some of the original machinery including the drive shaft is still in situ. The gardens were restored by Dr Robin Odgers and his wife Janie, who occupied the house from 1984 to its sale in 2000. There are listed, Grade II, on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of special historic interest in England. Museum The house once contained a small military museum commemorating the life and work of Brigadier Andrew Hamilton Gault, a decorated Boer War hero who served as Member of Parliament for Taunton and as a member of the Quebec Chamber of Commerce. He was the founder of the last privately raised regiment in the British Empire, the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry. Hamilton Gault was buried on the estate. His wife continued to live at Hatch Court until 1972. See also List of Grade I listed buildings in Taunton Deane Sources Sanders, I.J.

Hatchet Inn, Bristol

The Hatchet Inn is a historic pub in the English city of Bristol. It is a Grade II listed building. The name is thought to originate from the axes/hatchets that the local woodsmen used in Clifton Woods. The building dates from 1606, but has undergone significant alteration since and is a grade II listed building. It is the oldest still operating pub in Bristol, though while it was still operating the Llandoger Trow was of a similar age. Since the 1980s the Hatchet has been known as one of Bristol's few alternative pubs hosting rock music upstairs. The pub has a pool room located upstairs as well as a venue which is used for clubs and can be hired for private bookings. There is a beer garden located on the side of the property, facing the O2 Academy venue. Located behind the pub was the old Cannon Cinema, which closed down in 2000. The building is now an Academy Night Club/gig venue where many well known bands have played. In the 18th century there was a rat pit at the rear of the building. In September 2006 the Hatchet celebrated its 400-year anniversary. The streets nearby were closed, staff and some regular customers dressed up in historic costumes. The Hatchet was acquired by the Liberation Group (owners of Butcombe Brewery) in 2017 but was shut in March 2020 due to the first nationwide COVID-19 lockdown. Jon Bassett, owner of JW Bassett Pubs, signed a 20 year lease in May 2021 and spent £500,000 on renovations, before reopening The Hatchet to the general public on 28 June 2021. In popular culture The Hatchet Inn is one of the locations in which the novel The Fair Fight by Anna Freeman is set. The Hatchet Inn is also the palace from where the pirate Samuel Bellamy started his trip from England to Cape Cod in Alexander De Chastelaine's novel Black Sam. In local Bristol culture, there is an enduring urban legend that the wooden front door of the establishment is wrapped in human skin, under hundreds of years of paint.

Hatchmere

Hatchmere is a small mere and nature reserve in Delamere Forest, southeast of Frodsham, Cheshire, England. It is also the name of a hamlet near the village of Norley. Nature reserve Hatch Mere Nature Reserve covers 12.6 hectares (31 acres). It lies within a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), and is managed by the Cheshire Wildlife Trust. According to the SSSI citation "Hatch Mere is an example of a mere with moderate fertility and well developed floating and emergent vegetation. It is an unusual mere because of the surrounding vegetation which consists largely of acidic heath and bog communities." The mere is a good example of a kettle hole, of which there are several in the Delamere area. Some are flooded as here whilst others are dry or contain peat mosses. The mere originated as a detached mass of glacial ice that melted in situ towards the end of the last ice age. Notable animal species include the Hairy Dragonfly Brachytron pratense, Variable Damselfly Coenagrion pulchellum and a rare caddisfly, Potomophylax rotundipennis. Rare plants for the area include Tufted Sedge Carex elata and Bog Myrtle Myrica gale. There were several campaigns to maintain public access to the lake after it was bought by the Wildlife Trust in 1998. Initially the Trust fenced off the only access point to the lake suitable for swimmers. A pressure group, the Friends of Hatchmere, was formed, and eventually the Wildlife Trust backed down and agreed to allow swimming in the lake. The Hatchmere campaign was instrumental in the forming of the River and Lake Swimming Association, a group that promotes open water swimming in the United Kingdom. Wild swimming in Hatchmere has been banned by the lake's owners since November 2019. Angling is permitted on the lake under the membership of Prince Albert Angling Society and anglers have purpose-built platforms from where they have to fish from which each requires a key provided by the society. Fish present in the lake include bream, tench, pike, roach as well as some breeds of carp. In late 2020, a pair of Eurasian beavers were released into a fenced 10-acre enclosure at the northwest end of the mere. References
Hatfield Manor House

Hatfield Manor House is a remodelled 18th-century Grade-I listed manor house in the town of Hatfield near Doncaster, South Yorkshire, which is based on an originally 12th-century building. The building is constructed of roughcast ashlar and brick with a Welsh slate roof. It is built to a T-shaped plan in 2 and 3 storeys. The building is not open to the public. The entrance is marked by two modern gatehouses on Manor Road, and the early 18th-century stables are clearly visible from the road. History The Hatfield site is believed to be the site of the palace of Edwin of Northumbria, who allegedly died at the Battle of Hatfield Chase, the location of which is disputed. Hatfield was granted to the Warenne family c. 1070, and the house must have been built by them prior to 1317. It reverted to the Crown in 1347 when the Warenne male line became extinct and was used as a hunting lodge for most of the next 300 years. William of Hatfield, the second son of King Edward III, was born in the house in 1336, but died in infancy. In 1628, the estate was granted by King Charles I to Sir Cornelius Vermuyden, who had been responsible for draining the lands around Hatfield. He sold it in 1630 to Sir Arthur Ingram of Temple Newsam, in whose family it remained for several generations. Arthur Ingram's lineal descendant, the 9th and last Viscount Irvine, died in 1778 without an heir and bequeathed the estate to Lady Beauchamp, afterwards Marchioness of Hertford, from whom it passed to Lady William Gordon. The house was extended in the 16th and 17th centuries and completely remodelled in the 18th century.

Haughley Castle

Haughley Castle ist eine Burgruine im Dorf Haughley, etwa 4 km nordwestlich des Marktes Stowmarket in der englischen Grafschaft Suffolk. Historiker wie J. C. Wall sehen in der Ruine „die perfektesten Erdwerke dieser Art in der Grafschaft“, während R. Allen Brown sie als „eines der wichtigsten“ Burganwesen in East Anglia beschreibt. Aufbau Hugh de Montfort ließ Haughley Castle gegen Ende des 11. Jahrhunderts erbauen. Die Burg war eine Motte mit einem sehr großen Mound, der am Fuß einen Durchmesser von 70 Metern und eine Höhe von 24 Metern hatte. Die Vorburg ist rechteckig und bedeckte eine Fläche von 117 Metern × 90 Metern. Der Eingang war auf der Westseite. Mound und Vorburg waren durch einen breiten Burggraben geschützt, der von Westen von einem Bach mit Wasser gespeist wurde. Frühere Untersuchungen nähren die Meinung, dass ein steinerner Donjon auf dem Mound stand, von dem sich aber heute keine Fundamente mehr feststellen lassen. Eine weitere Vorburg könnte einst die heute noch erhaltenen Erdwerke umschlossen haben, ebenso wie die örtliche Kirche. Die enormen Dimensionen der Burgruine brachten die Geschichtswissenschaftler J. C. Wall und R. Allen Brown zu den oben erwähnten Aussagen. Geschichte Die Burg bildete das Caput (Hauptburg) in der Mitte des Honour of Haughley. Diese Grundherrschaft wird auch manchmal Honour of the Constable genannt, weil der Eigner dem Konstabler von Dover Castle Soldaten und Ritter zum Schutz der Burg nach dem Castle-Guard-System stellen musste. Hugh de Montfort wurde 1088 Mönch und die Burg fiel an seine Erben bis zur Mitte des 12. Jahrhunderts. Gegen Ende der Regierungszeit König Stephans verlehnte dieser die Burg an Henry of Essex, einen seiner Unterstützer. Ende des 12. Jahrhunderts war die Familie Bigod, die den Titel eines Earl of Norfolk führte und mit der englischen Krone um die Vorherrschaft in der Region kämpfte, in Suffolk zu einer gewissen Dominanz gekommen. Nach dem Tode König Stephans hatte Heinrich II. den englischen Thron übernommen und Henry of Essex fiel in Ungnade beim neuen König, nachdem er wegen Feigheit während des Konfliktes mit Wales im Jahre 1157 angeklagt und verurteilt wurde. Der König nahm Haughley Castle 1163 Henry of Essex ab, und Mitte der 1170er-Jahre war die Burg unter der Kontrolle von Ralph de Broe und einer Garnison von 30 Soldaten für den König. 1173 brach ein neuer Konflikt aus, als die Söhne König Heinrichs und der Bigod-Alliierte Robert de Beaumont, der Earl of Leicester, an der Küste von East Anglia landeten, westwärts marschierten und Haughley Castle belagerten. Ralph de Broe gab die Burg auf, die dann von Robert de Beaumonts Truppen niedergebrannt wurde, auch wenn die Revolte letztendlich nicht erfolgreich war. Nach ihrer Zerstörung 1173 wurde die Burg nicht mehr aufgebaut. Heute ist die Burgruine ein Scheduled Monument.

Haughton Castle

Haughton Castle ist ein Landhaus nördlich des Dorfes Humshaugh am Westufer des North Tyne. Es liegt etwa 10 km nördlich von Hexham in der englischen Grafschaft Northumberland. Das Haus entstand ursprünglich im 13. Jahrhundert als Wohnturm und wurde dann im 14. Jahrhundert erweitert und befestigt. Damals gehörte das Haus Gerald Widdrington und, auch wenn es Anfang des 14. Jahrhunderts immer noch den Widdringtons gehörte, lebten die Swinburns darin. Bis zum 16. Jahrhundert verfiel das Haus und wurde auch von Border Reivers angegriffen. Ein Bericht von 1541 erwähnt, dass die Dächer und Böden „verfallen und verschwunden“ seien. Die Familie Smith kaufte das Anwesen um 1640, aber 1715 bezeichnet ein weiterer Bericht das Haus immer noch als Ruine. Von 1816 bis 1845 ließen die Smiths wesentliche Umbauten ausführen, letztlich durch den Architekten John Dobson, um die Ruine in ein großes Landhaus zu verwandeln. Die Familie Crawshaw kam 1862 in den Besitz des Hauses und ließ 1876 durch Anthony Salvin einen Westflügel anbauen. 1888 kaufte die Familie Cruddas das Anwesen. Ein Teil des Landhauses diente im Zweiten Weltkrieg als Krankenhaus. Was einst ein länglicher Wohnturm war, gehört heute zu den besterhaltenen traditionellen Häusern im Norden Englands. Haughton Castle wurde von English Heritage als historisches Bauwerk I. Grades gelistet und wird zurzeit von der Eignerfamilie Braithwaite bewohnt. Einzelnachweise Weblinks Haughton Castle.

Haughton Castle

Haughton Castle is a privately owned country mansion and Grade I listed building, situated to the north of the village of Humshaugh on the west bank of the North Tyne. It is around 5+1⁄2 miles (8.9 km) north of the market town of Hexham, Northumberland. It was built originally in the 13th century as a tower house and enlarged and fortified in the 14th century. At this time the castle was owned by Gerald Widdrington and, although the Widdringtons still owned it in the early 14th century, the Swinburns were living there. By the 16th century, the castle fell into ruin and disrepair, and it was attacked by Border reivers. A survey of 1541 reported the roof and floors to be "decayed and gone". The property was acquired by the Smith family in about 1640, but in 1715 a further survey stated the building to be ruinous. Significant alterations were carried out for the Smiths between 1816 and 1845, latterly by architect John Dobson to convert the ruin into a substantial mansion. The Crawshaw family came into possession in 1862, and a west wing was added for them by Anthony Salvin in 1876. In the late 19th century it was acquired by the Cruddas family. Part of the castle served as a hospital during the Second World War. It is currently owned by the Braithwaite family. Some commentators suggest it is the location for the traditional song "Waters of Tyne". References External links Information on Barrasford.net
Château de Haughton

Le château de Haughton est un manoir de campagne privé et un bâtiment classé Grade I, situé au nord du village de Humshaugh, sur la rive ouest de la Tyne, dans le Northumberland. Histoire Il est construit au XIIIe siècle comme maison-tour et agrandie et fortifiée au XIVe siècle. À cette époque, le château appartient à Gerald Widdrington et, bien que les Widdrington en soient encore propriétaires au début du XIVe siècle, les Swinburn y vivent. Au XVIe siècle, le château tombe en ruine et est attaqué par les Border Reivers. Une enquête de 1541 rapporte que le toit et les planchers sont « pourris et disparus ». La propriété est acquise par la famille Smith vers 1640 mais en 1715, une nouvelle enquête déclare que le bâtiment est en ruine. Des modifications importantes sont effectuées pour les Smith entre 1816 et 1845, dernièrement par l'architecte John Dobson pour transformer la ruine en un manoir important et une aile ouest est ajoutée par Anthony Salvin en 1876. Une partie du château sert d'hôpital pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il s'agit aujourd'hui d'une maison-tour oblongue et de l'une des maisons-halls les mieux conservées du nord de l'Angleterre. En 1888, il est acquis par la famille Cruddas et appartient actuellement à la famille Braithwaite.
