Royal Artillery Memorial

Le Royal Artillery Memorial est un monument de la Première Guerre mondiale situé à Hyde Park Corner, à Londres, en Angleterre. Il était inauguré en 1925, le mémorial rend hommage aux 49 076 soldats de la Royal Artillery tués pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. La nature statique du conflit (Guerre de tranchées), en particulier sur le front occidental, a fait que l'artillerie a joué un rôle majeur dans la guerre, même si les souvenirs physiques des combats ont souvent été évités dans les années qui ont suivi la guerre. Le Royal Artillery War Commemoration Fund (RAWCF) a été créé en 1918 pour présider aux commémorations du régiment, conscient d'un certain mécontentement à l'égard des monuments commémoratifs des guerres précédentes. Le RAWCF a contacté plusieurs architectes éminents, mais son insistance sur une représentation visuelle de l'artillerie a fait qu'aucun d'entre eux n'a été en mesure de produire un projet satisfaisant. Il s'est donc tourné vers Charles Sargeant Jagger, lui-même ancien soldat blessé pendant la guerre. Jagger a produit un projet qui a été accepté en 1922, bien qu'il l'ait modifié à plusieurs reprises avant la construction.

Royal Ascot Golf Club

History Royal Ascot Golf Club was established in 1887 and, later that same year, was granted permission by Queen Victoria to use the "Royal" prefix. It is Berkshire's second-oldest golf club and remains the county's only golf club to hold Royal status. The club's original course was situated on Ascot Heath within the grounds of Ascot Racecourse. Among the notable championships staged there was the inaugural Boys Amateur Championship in 1921. The championship trophy was presented to The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews and continues to be used for the annual event. In 2000, following notice from the racecourse owners that the land would be required for redevelopment, the club began plans to relocate. A new site was secured at nearby Sunninghill Park, where construction of a purpose-built championship course and clubhouse commenced. Members moved into the new clubhouse in December 2004, with the official opening taking place in 2006. Golf continued on the original Ascot Heath course until August 2005 before play transferred permanently to the new venue. The current course was designed by Jonathan Tucker of the Sports Turf Research Institute (STRI) and constructed by J & E Ely, the specialist golf course contractors who also carried out preparations for Royal Troon's hosting of The Open Championship in 2004. Course The present course has been laid out across mature parkland featuring established oak, beech, ash, birch and larch woodland, together with natural ponds, brooks and designated wildlife habitats. The site supports a variety of native wildlife, including buzzards, roe deer and muntjac deer. During construction, extensive tree planting was undertaken to complement the existing landscape, with many of those trees now forming established strategic features throughout the course. The greens were built to United States Golf Association (USGA) specifications and, together with a modern drainage system, are designed to provide consistent playing surfaces throughout much of the year. The course is used for both members' golf and regional championship events and is recognised for offering a challenging but fair test for golfers of all abilities. Clubhouse and Community The clubhouse includes a restaurant, bar, terrace, function rooms and meeting facilities, providing a venue for members, visitors and a wide range of private and corporate events. The club regularly hosts weddings, celebrations, business meetings, charity events and golf competitions throughout the year. Alongside its golfing activities, Royal Ascot Golf Club has developed a wider role within the local community by supporting charitable initiatives, schools, sports organisations and community groups, as well as hosting regional and national golf events. The club's stated aim is to provide a welcoming environment for members, guests and visitors while serving as a community-focused venue for both golf and non-golf activities.

Royal Buckinghamshire Hospital

The Royal Buckinghamshire Hospital (colloquially called the Royal Bucks) is a private hospital in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. It is a Grade II listed building. History The hospital was established, by adding new wings to an 18th-century country house, in 1832. The facility was extensively remodeled to a design by David Brandon using a pavilion layout which was heavily influenced by Florence Nightingale through her brother-in-law, Sir Harry Verney of Claydon House. She said that "it will be the most beautiful hospital in England." The new hospital was opened as the Buckinghamshire General Infirmary in 1862. It is thought that the hospital became "Royal" after the Prince of Wales received treatment there in the late 19th century. A new wing, the foundation stone for which was laid by Lord Rothschild, followed in 1905. Following the expansion of the Stoke Mandeville Hospital nearby, the Royal Buckinghamshire Hospital joined the National Health Service as a maternity hospital in 1948. It became a private hospital in 1994 and, after acquisition by Affinity Care Homes and an extensive subsequent refurbishment, it reopened as a facility for the treatment of patients with spinal cord, acquired brain injury and other neurological conditions in 2013. In January 2023, it was announced that the Royal Buckinghamshire Hospital would undergo an extensive refurbishment and be acquired by the Akessa Healthcare Group along with The Foscote Hospital and 107 Harley Street in January 2023.

Royal Corinthian Yacht Club

Der Royal Corinthian Yacht Club ist ein Yachtclub mit Sitz in Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex, Großbritannien und in Cowes auf der Isle of Wight im Ärmelkanal. Geschichte Der Club wurde 1872 an der Themse in Erith, Kent gegründet und zog 1892 um nach Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex. Der Club stellte die Mannschaft für die Yacht Endeavour der J-Klasse. Sie gehörte Thomas Sopwith, der 1934 mit der Yacht den 15. America’s Cup gewinnen wollte. Seine professionelle Crew streikte und er benötigte eine neue Mannschaft, die er aus Club-Mitgliedern rekrutierte. Auf dem Heimatrevier des Royal Corinthian Yacht Club, der Ostküste Englands hat der Club 1893 die Regattaveranstaltung Burnham Week auf den Weg gebracht und die Burnham Icicle und das Hornet Easter Egg gegründet, ebenso wie seit 1961 die Endeavour Trophy, eine Veranstaltung nur für eingeladene Sieger von Segelevents verschiedener Bootsklassen. Burnham-on-Crouch 1931 wurde Frederick Gilbert Mitchell Kommodore des Royal Corinthian Yacht Club und war für die Fertigstellung des neuen Clubhauses in Burnham-on-Crouch verantwortlich. Der Entwurf stammte von dem britischen Architekten Joseph Emberton (1889–1956) und repräsentierte Großbritanniens Beitrag für die internationale Ausstellung von moderner Architektur im Museum of Modern Art in New York City im Jahr 1932. Das Gebäude ist eines der wenigen Beispiele des Internationalen Stils in Großbritannien. Das Clubhaus bietet einen überragenden Blick über den River Crouch. Im Erdgeschoss befindet sich eine große Bar für Mittags- und Abendveranstaltungen, das von Mitgliedern, ihren Gästen und Segelbesuchern genutzt werden kann. Der große, über das Wasser ragende Balkon ist sehr gut besucht in den Sommermonaten. Im ersten Stock hat man ein modernes Restaurant mit 120 Sitzplätzen. Im 2. Geschoss können Mitglieder Schlafzimmer mit Balkon für Übernachtungen anmieten. Der Club bietet 100 Bojenplätze im tiefen Wasser und eine Slipanlage. Regattasegeln findet während der Segelsaison jeden Samstag und Sonntag statt mit großen Teilnehmerfeldern in den Bootsklassen Drachen, Squib, 707er und Royal Corinthian One Design Yachten. Die Fahrtensegler-Abteilung (engl.: cruising section) des Clubs segelt in Gruppen entlang der Ostküste, sowie zu Urlaubsreisen zum europäischen Kontinent und zu lokalen Regatten. Die Jugendabteilung des Clubs nennt sich The Corinthian Otters, sie segeln die Bootsklassen Optimist, Cadet, 420er Jolle und Laser. Cowes Im Jahr 1948 etablierte der Club einen südlichen Ableger in Cowes in dem gegenwärtigen Clubhaus. Es wurde geführt von Rosa Lewis (1867–1952), einer britischen Starköchin und Eigentümerin des Cavendish Hotel in London. Es sollte ein Rückzugsort und Ort der Unterhaltung sein für Herren, die den Royal Yacht Squadron besuchen wollten. 1988 wurde das Clubhaus aus wirtschaftlichen Gründen verkauft. 1993 wurde das Haus von einigen Club-Mitgliedern rückerworben, um es wieder für den Club zu nutzen.

Royal Corinthian Yacht Club

The Royal Corinthian Yacht Club is a watersports organisation based at Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex. History Early history The club was founded at Erith, Kent in 1872 and moved to Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex in 1892. Antecedent clubs later absorbed into the Club include the Hammersmith Sailing Club, which changed its name to the London Sailing Club and moved to Burnham in 1897 (having merged with the Junior Thames Yacht Club in 1895), and the Eastern Yacht Club, which was amalgamated with the Royal Corinthian in 1907. The Club provided the crew for the Endeavour in Thomas Sopwith's America's Cup Challenge in 1934 after a strike of Sopwith's professional crew. Five members of the club crewed the boat Lalage in the 1936 Summer Olympic Games, winning the gold medal in the 6 metre class. Burnham-on-Crouch In 1931 Tiny Mitchell became Commodore of the club where he was responsible for completing the new clubhouse at Burnham-on-Crouch. The Grade II* listed building was designed by Joseph Emberton and represented Britain's contribution to the International Exhibition of Modern Architecture held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City in 1932. The building is one of the few examples of the International style of architecture in Britain. Cowes In 1948, the club established a southern branch at Cowes, taking as its local clubhouse Castle Rock, a large house purchased from London hotelier Rosa Lewis. In 1988 the clubhouse was sold to commercial interests; however, the buyer subsequently went into receivership and in 1993 the clubhouse was re-purchased from the receiver by a small group of members for the benefit of the club. In 2015, having been run as a separate legal entity under the name Royal Corinthian Yacht Club, Cowes, the club that operated from the Cowes clubhouse merged with the Royal Ocean Racing Club (RORC), and its premises are now the Cowes clubhouse of the RORC. The Royal Corinthian heritage was perpetuated by a newly-created class of 'Corinthian' members within the RORC, for those unable to meet the RORC's standard membership requirements.

Royal Cornwall Hospital

The Royal Cornwall Hospital, formerly and still commonly known as the Treliske Hospital, is a medium-sized teaching hospital in Treliske, on the outskirts of Truro, Cornwall, England. The hospital provides training services for the University of Exeter Medical School, as well as Plymouth University Dental School. It is managed by the Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust. History The new hospital at Treliske, which initially included 180 beds and six wards, was opened by Princess Alexandra on 12 July 1968. In 1969 the hospital helped investigate the mummy of the priest, Iset-tayef-nakht, including carrying out X-rays. Services were transferred from the Royal Cornwall Infirmary to the Royal Cornwall Hospital in the mid-1990s. The Trelawny Wing, named after Sir Jonathan Trelawny, was built at a cost of £27 million and officially opened in 1998. The work, which took six years of planning and development, marked the completion of the conversion of the Royal Cornwall Hospital into the main district general hospital for Cornwall. The wing ensured facilities in Cornwall were equal to those found in any of the other district general hospitals in the country. David Cameron's younger daughter was born in the Princess Alexandra Maternity Unit, named after the princess who opened the hospital, while Cameron and his wife Samantha were on holiday in Cornwall in August 2010. In recent years, The hospital has undergone significant redevelopment to modernise facilities and meet rising demand for services across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. Major investment during the early 2020s included the opening of a new MRI suite and Haematology and Oncology Unit, providing expanded cancer diagnostics and treatment space, alongside upgrades to CT imaging for radiotherapy planning. The hospital also introduced the Tremenel Unit, creating additional capacity for frailty care and same-day emergency services. At the same time, detailed planning began for a new Women and Children’s Hospital and integrated Pathology Hub.

Wet Sleddale Reservoir

Wet Sleddale Reservoir is an artificial reservoir set amongst the Shap Fells 4 kilometres (2 mi) south of the village of Shap in Cumbria, England, and lies just within the boundary of the Lake District National Park. The triangular shaped reservoir, which can store 2,330,406,000 litres (512,618,000 imp gal; 615,628,000 US gal) of water, was created by the construction of a dam across Sleddale Beck in order to supply Manchester with water. The dam is 21 metres (69 ft) high and 600 metres (2,000 ft) long. The extracted water is carried to Haweswater, mainly through tunnels. The beck emerges from the foot of the dam as the River Lowther. There is a public car park beneath the dam from which a public right of way gives access to the south side of the reservoir. Alfred Wainwright describes a walk from here in the Wet Sleddale Horseshoe chapter of his The Outlying Fells of Lakeland. Manchester Corporation were given powers to construct the reservoir under the Haweswater Act, 1919 but construction did not start until the 1960s and completion was in 1966. References

Royal Fowey Yacht Club

The Royal Fowey Yacht Club is located in a waterfront setting at Fowey, on the south coast of Cornwall one of the UK's most secure harbours. Its antecedents can be traced back to 1880; its third Honorary Secretary, from 1893, was Arthur Quiller-Couch, who became Sir Arthur. The minutes and descriptions of Yacht races, up to 1897 are in his handwriting. Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch filled the post of Commodore from 1911 until 1944 when he was succeeded by Lt. General Sir Frederick Browning, who upon retirement in 1962, was elected the Club's first Admiral. The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh were his personal friends, and visited the Club from the RY Britannia, visiting also him and his wife, the author Daphne du Maurier, at their home at Menabilly, (which became "Manadalay" in her book, "Rebecca"). In 1905 permission was granted for the Club to include in its insignia the Coronet of the Duke of Cornwall over the Shield of the Duchy of Cornwall and in 1907 the King approved the use of the prefix "Royal" in the name of the Club.
