Fulham Cross Girls' School

Fulham Cross Girls’ School (FCGS) is a secondary school with academy status for girls aged 11–16, located in the Fulham area of the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, England. The school is part of the Fulham Cross Academy Trust, alongside Fulham Cross Academy. Although the school does not have its own sixth form, graduating pupils have admissions priority for the sixth form operated by Fulham Cross Academy. The school converted to an academy in 2013 (2013). As of 2021, it has not been inspected by Ofsted since then, although there was a monitoring visit in 2015. History In 1973, the school was established as Fulham Gilliatt Comprehensive School, as a result of the merging of Fulham County School, a selective school, and Gilliatt School. The first headteacher was Yvonne Lillian Harrison, who had previously been head of Fulham County School from 1969. She was in post until December 1974. The merger of the schools was described by the new deputy head as a "traumatic period". Notable staff Alison Uttley References External links Official website
Fulham Palace

Fulham Palace (en français : palais Fulham) est la maison de campagne des évêques de Londres du XIe siècle à 1975. Situé dans le quartier londonien de Fulham, au Royaume-Uni, il est de nos jours un musée. Histoire Un palais médiéval fut édifié sur le site de Fulham, qui avait précédemment accueilli des colonies romaines. En 700, l'évêque Waldhere en fit l'acquisition. À compter de cette date, le domaine resta aux mains des évêques de Londres. Du XIe siècle à la fin du XIXe siècle, il est leur résidence de campagne. Situé loin de la ville surpeuplée, il était un lieu de refuge où eux et leur famille pouvaient se retirer pour y trouver repos. Le manoir dominait un vaste domaine dont il était le château. Pendant le Moyen Âge, les évêques qui en étaient les propriétaires exerçaient sur ces terres les droits seigneurials : ils jouissaient des impôts des paysans qui y cultivaient la terre, et gouvernaient parfois des serfs. En retour, ils entretenaient les infrastructures : notamment, ils réparaient les ponts et recreusaient les fossés régulièrement. Avec l'arrivée de la Réforme protestante, leurs droits se résument à la perception de loyers, puis sont totalement supprimés en 1868. Du début du XXe siècle à l'an 1973, il devint leur résidence principale. De nombreux jardiniers se sont succédé au cours de l'histoire pour établir un grand jardin botanique qui est encore visible de nos jours. En partie grâce au dévouement de l'évêque Compton, il a acquis une renommée mondiale de par ses plantes importées depuis des territoires lointains.

Fullbrook School

Fullbrook School is a secondary school and sixth form college in northwest Surrey, England. The school has held Specialist Science, Technology, Mathematics and Computing College status since 2002. The school gained Grant Maintained status in September 1994 and was then given foundation status in 1999. In 2011, the school became an academy. Its main catchment areas are Byfleet, West Byfleet and New Haw with some pupils coming from Addlestone, Woking, Goldsworth Park and Sheerwater. The school has around 1550 students and there are about 250 students in the school's Sixth Form. In January 2017, Mrs A Turner retired as head of Fullbrook School, and was succeeded by Mrs K Moore. In 2022, Mr A McKenzie was appointed as head of the school, coinciding with his lead as principal at King's College, Guildford. History Fullbrook was first established on its present site in 1954, when West Byfleet County Secondary School was divided into two as numbers at that school, due to postwar expansion, reached 747 in September 1953. Pupils living to the north of the line from Sheerwater Road, the Basingstoke Canal and then along the railway to West Weybridge (now Byfleet and New Haw) transferred to Fullbrook County Secondary School. Above the main entrance is a stone plaque that was loaned to the school from the London County Council (LCC) during the building programme in the early 1950s. The Sheerwater Estate was being built to provide over spill housing for Londoners. The school there, now Bishop David Brown, had not yet been built and so the plaque came to the just completed Fullbrook School. The Headteacher and Governors used it to inspire the school badge. The plaque features an eagle and a squirrel. It was decided that as an eagle was often used on badges, to use choose the squirrel as it was different. The Festival of Britain was held at that time and celebrated contemporary design. The original Fullbrook building is in a typical 1950s style and perhaps the plaque was placed over the main entrance to decorate an otherwise plain architectural design. The plaque design is very much in the Art Deco style and it is possible that it came from a London building destroyed during The Blitz. Mr W. H. Bean, the school's first headmaster, retired in 1968. In 1976, West Byfleet County Secondary School closed and its pupils and teachers joined Fullbrook. Notable alumni Shoaib Bashir, cricketer, Somerset and England Laura Davies, professional golfer Steve Mac, record producer, songwriter and musician.

Fullerton Park

Fullerton Park was a former speedway and greyhound track in Leeds. Origins and Opening Fullerton Park Stadium originally known as 'The Kennels' was constructed by the Greyhound Racing Association (GRA) in 1927 and opened just three months after the Elland Road Greyhound Stadium; it was located on the opposite side (north side) of the Elland Road. The opening night was on Tuesday 4 October 1927 with gates opening at 6.30pm and a first race time of 7.30pm. The public were able to reserve boxes in the grandstand to view the racing, an incentive used in an attempt to rival the Elland Road Greyhound Stadium which was run by the Leeds Greyhound Association Ltd (LGA). The popular rings were able to accommodate 30,000 spectators. The initial greyhound trials featured not only Leeds greyhounds but also greyhounds from the new Greenfield Stadium, Bradford because their hare had not yet been installed there. Four licensed trainers took up residence looking after 100 greyhounds in the resident kennels on site made up from runners sent from other GRA tracks at Edinburgh, Manchester, Liverpool, White City and Harringay. The new general manager was Captain McNaughton and the Racing Manager was George Malcaster and racing was planned for Tuesday, Friday and Saturday nights. Permits had been issued to 127 on course bookmakers issued as follows – the 10s and 5s Tattersall's ring (25), the 2s 4d enclosure (20), the 1s 4d enclosure (82). Controversy & Greyhound racing closure A bitter battle took place during 1927 between the Greyhound Racing Association (GRA) owners of Fullerton Park and the Leeds Greyhound Association Ltd (LGA) owners of the Elland Road track. The LGA took the GRA to court for false advertising following the public claim by the GRA that they had sole rights of greyhounds chasing electric hares and this upset other companies because it implied that they were the only company allowed to race greyhounds. The GRA quickly realised that with their greyhound stadium being so close to Elland Road stadium they would not be able to monopolise trade in the city. This resulted in the closing of Fullerton Park to greyhound racing and the GRA buying a stake in the LGA. The last meeting was held on 30 April 1928. Speedway The empty stadium soon had speedway when promoters acquired an option from the GRA. The grass greyhound circuit was dug up and widened for the dirt track. The first meeting was held on 13 October 1928. The speedway continued for another ten years until 1938 when it closed. Closure The stadium closed in 1938 and was later demolished; today the site is a car park for the Elland Road football stadium. References
Fullhurst Community College

Fullhurst Community College is an over-subscribed 11-16 comprehensive school in Braunstone, West Leicester. In September 2023 Ofsted graded the school ‘Good’, which reflects the continued improvements the school has made amid record summer examination results. The current Executive Headteacher is Mrs. Christina Bailey. Fullhurst Community College opened in 1991 following the closure of King Richard III School and Newarke School. It was initially located on the King Richard site while a significant refurbishment of the Newarke site took place. It moved into the Newarke buildings in 1992. After this, the college received funding from the Building Schools For The Future program. Under this, DRCC retained its 1930s red bricks and clocktower and was combined with a new, glass building 2 with 1st-century facilities to allow students to thrive. Recently, DRCC has inhabited Ellesmere College's old building and turned it into a £15 million new campus to house Year 7 and Year 8 students, also allowing the college to expand its student population to 1500 from September 2020. The school has also won awards such as the Department For Education Pupil Premium Secondary Champion, Leicester Mercury School Of The Year, and finalists for Pearson's 2018 National School Of The Year.

Fulmer Place

Fulmer Place is a Grade II listed mansion at Fulmer in Buckinghamshire which was formerly the home of Lord John Hay. History Formerly the seat of the Darell family, the original manor house was demolished long ago. A modern villa was built on the site in the italianate style in 1742 and acquired by William Frogatt, a solicitor, in 1796. After Frogatt's death in 1809 the property passed through several hands and was purchased in about 1876 by Admiral of the Fleet Lord John Hay, who served as First Naval Lord in 1886. The house is still standing and is now Grade II listed. References Sources Lysons, Samuel (1806). Magna Britannia: Bedfordshire, Berkshire, and Buckinghamshire. Retrieved 28 December 2012.

Fulwood Old Chapel

Fulwood Old Chapel is a Unitarian place of worship in the Fulwood district of western Sheffield, South Yorkshire. It is a member of the General Assembly of Unitarian and Free Christian Churches, the umbrella organisation for British Unitarians. The chapel was built from 1728 to 1729 as a meeting house for English Dissenters, who had previously met under John Fox at Fullwood Hall. William Ronksley left £400 in his will for the construction of a "large and handsome" chapel, although the construction itself cost only £75. The chapel is the second-oldest religious building in south or west Sheffield, after Beauchief Abbey. The single-storey building is constructed of coursed stone and dressed with ashlar, and has stone slate roofs. The walls are around two feet thick. The street frontage has four mullioned windows, doors being placed between the first and second, and third and fourth, windows. A tablet above the two central windows reads "Built 1729 in pursuance of the last Will of Mr W Roncksley". In 1754, a school room was added; this was extended in 1968 to include a kitchen and toilets, and was again modernised in 2009. It is currently used for a Sunday school and social events. Other changes were made in 1959, when a small storm porch was added inside the main entrance. The chapel is now Grade II listed. A garden formerly laid outside the chapel, but this was removed in 1929, when the road was widened. At the same time, the early nineteenth century village stocks were then moved to lie in front of the building, and these are now also Grade II listed. Samuel Plimsoll is believed to have worshipped at the chapel in the 1860s, and his first daughter may be buried under its floor. References External links Official website
Smythson

Frank Smythson Limited, commonly known as Smythson (), is a British manufacturer and retailer of luxury stationery, leather goods, diaries, and fashion products based in London, England. The company's founder, Frank John Smythson, was born in 1847 at Holborn and was a son of Marcus Alfred Smythson, a professor of music. He opened his first store on 29 September 1887 at 133 New Bond Street in London. Smythson's flagship store, which closed in 2024, was located nearby at 131-132 New Bond Street. Smythson's clients have included the British royal family, many UK prime ministers and other politicians, Sir Edmund Hillary, Madonna and Grace Kelly. In 1908, the company created the first 'Featherweight' diary, enabling diaries to be carried about. Most of the company's leather goods are now made in Italy. History In the 1950s, the John Menzies Group acquired Smythson, which was also operating under the name 'Pendragon' at the time. In 1998, Smythson's then managing director Sarah Elton led a management buyout backed by a private investor. Since then, the business has grown and the company is now operating outlets in the UK, US and France, as well as online through their website. In 2004, Smythson recorded £12 million in sales revenues. During the 2000s, its creative director was Samantha Cameron, wife of David Cameron. In early 2005, Smythson shareholders appointed Cavendish Corporate Finance Limited to advise on the disposal of their stake in the business. Besides maximising value for themselves, the shareholders wanted to find a buyer who would protect the heritage of the brand and offer the management team the opportunity to continue to grow. Kelso Place Asset Management and King Street Partners, backed by a consortium of high-net-worth individuals, were identified as the preferred bidders. Sarah Elton commented that she was satisfied with the deal. In December 2009, the company was sold for £18 million to Greenwill SA. Jacques Bahbout became Chairman of Smythson. In 2021, Stefano Giacomelli was appointed Deputy Chairman. Smythson has collaborated with artists and designers such as Holly Fulton (2010), Jonathan Saunders (2011) and Quentin Jones (2014). On 1 July 2025, it was announced the company had been acquired by Oakley Capital, a private equity firm owned by Peter Dubens. The price of the sale was not disclosed. Locations In the United Kingdom, Smythson has London boutiques on Sloane Street, as well as concessions in Harrods, Selfridges and Heathrow Airport Terminals 4 and 5. The company had a flagship store on New Bond Street, which hosted a small archive collection dedicated to notable users of Smythson products throughout the brand's history. However, the store closed its doors in April 2024, three months after the firm closed its boutique in Westbourne Grove. Smythson's other international location is at Le Bon Marché in Paris.

Furnivall Sculling Club

Furnivall Sculling Club is a rowing club based on the Tideway in Hammersmith, London. It was called Hammersmith Sculling Club until 1946. It was founded in 1896 by Frederick Furnivall, after whom the riverside Furnivall Gardens a few metres away are named. For its initial five years, in the reign of Queen Victoria, the club was for females only and is widely considered to have had the world's first female rowing team (crew). Furnivall has also admitted males since 1901. The club colours are a precise pallette: myrtle and old gold. History The club was founded by and is named after Frederick Furnivall (when he was 71, in April 1896). It was at the time called the Hammersmith Sculling Club for Girls. Given his passionate opposition to discrimination, he wanted to break into the man's world of river sport, by building a club for women. In 1901, men were admitted to full membership, and the name was changed to Furnivall Sculling Club for Girls and Men. However until 1946 the captaincy was restricted to female members in honour of the founding premise. After his death in 1910 the club honoured his memory by celebrating 'The Doctor's Birthday' for many years. Two female-only British rowing clubs exist: Barnes Bridge (which share premises with what was a men-only club) and Weybridge Ladies. As of 2022, Furnivall has over 150 members, of whom about 120 are full, active members the balance being social, gym and honorary life members. Furnivall underwent a major refurbishment in 2009 creating the club's ergometer facility, the John Robbins Room. A further set of works in 2019 and 20 modernised the building throughout. The club is one of four non-academic clubs along the Hammersmith bend and in the Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham as a whole, excluding the very small, closed 'Nautilus Club' who are based at British Rowing Headquarters, Hammersmith and who use Great Britain-ressemblent blades. The clubs locally known as 'Furnivall', A.K. and 'Sons' form a cluster with a close rivalry and subtly different emphases on age, gender and abilities within their squads.

Furzey Island

Furzey Island is an island in Poole Harbour, in the English county of Dorset; it lies to the south of the larger Brownsea Island. Seen from the water or adjoining land, it looks like another wild pineclad island; however, hidden in the trees are twenty-two oil wells split into two well-sites for the Wytch Farm Oil Field, which is linked by pipeline to Hamble on Southampton Water. The rarely seen tall oil rig can sometimes be a big landmark of Southern Poole Harbour and the main landmark between Brownsea and Furzey. The well-sites are staffed 24 hours a day. Furzey Island lies within the civil parish of Corfe Castle, which forms part of the Dorset (formerly Purbeck) local government district. History Furzey Island is believed to have been part of a much larger island around two thousand years ago, encompassing the entirety of Green Island. The name "Furzey" means "Furze island". In February 2004, Channel 4's archaeological television programme Time Team found evidence of Iron Age commercial activity on Green Island. The remains of an Iron Age furnace were discovered, along with evidence of the production of shale jewellery. However, due to the lack of shale jewellery found in the surrounding Dorset area, archaeologists theorised that Green Island was a centre of production that exported its goods to continental Europe. This theory lends further evidence to Green Island having once been an important port. References External links

Isla Furzey (en inglés: Furzey Island) es una isla en el puerto de Poole en el condado inglés de Dorset en el Reino Unido. La isla se encuentra al sur de la mayor isla de Brownsea. Vista desde el agua, o terrenos colindantes, su territorio parece otra Isla salvaje más. Sin embargo, escondido en los árboles existe un pozo de petróleo y una estación de recolección para el campo petrolero Wytch Farm, que está unido por tuberías a Hamble en Southampton. La isla de Furzey se encuentra dentro de la parroquia civil del castillo de Corfe (Corfe Castle). La parroquia forma parte del distrito de gobierno local Purbeck.​ Referencias Véase también Geografía de Inglaterra Geografía del Reino Unido
