Good Hope Hospital

Good Hope Hospital is a teaching hospital in the Sutton Coldfield area of Birmingham, England. Covering north Birmingham and south east Staffordshire, it is managed by the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust. History The hospital has its origins in a Victorian house built for the Rev. Riland Bedford, the local rector, in 1882. Originally known as Broomieclose, it became known as Good Hope House after a change of ownership in 1912. It was converted into a convalescent centre in 1943 and two single-storey wards were added in the 1950s to act as a facility for the potential evacuation of patients from Birmingham in the event of a nuclear attack. The Sheldon Unit and the Fothergill Block were added in 1967, the Richard Salt Unit opened in 1971 and new facilities for endoscopy, outpatients and diagnostic services followed in 2005. Services Good Hope is a teaching hospital with library and learning facilities in the Partnership Learning Centre, which is part-funded by the Medical School of the University of Birmingham. It has accident and emergency facilities. In 2017 the Care Quality Commission rated the Good Hope Hospital as requiring improvement.

Goodaver stone circle

Goodaver, Goodaver stone circle or Goodaver circle (grid reference SX20857515) is a stone circle located in the parish of Altarnun, near Bolventor on Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. Description The circle has a diameter of 32.3 metres (106 ft) (almost exactly to thirty nine Megalithic Yards) and consists of twenty three standing stones and one recumbent that has disappeared over the last century, they were originally thought to number twenty eight. The stones are well presented situated near the top of Shephard's Hill at an altitude of 306 metres (1,004 ft). The stones are generally rectangular and measure between 0.6 metres (2.0 ft) and 1.6 metres (5.2 ft) high by 1.45 feet (0.44 m) wide. They are spaced approximately 3.7 metres (12 ft) apart, slightly more irregular but in line with other big Bodmin Moor circles. Reverend A. H. Malan discovered the circle in 1906 when only three stones remained standing. Local farmers supplied workers to erect the fallen stones in their current position and it is clear that several stones were inverted, spaced incorrectly with some reversed faces and possibly in the wrong places. Archaeology There are remains of a large hilltop cairn is situated approximately 80 metres (260 ft) southwest of the stone circle at (grid reference SX20927509). The cairn shows no sign of kerb or cist and consists of a rocky mound covered in turf and approximately 19.5 metres (64 ft) in diameter and 0.7 metres (2.3 ft) high. Stones may have been removed for use in adjacent dry stone walls as it has been damaged on the northern side. There are also some remaining hut circles in the area showing signs of ancient settlement. Literature William Borlase (1754).

Gordano services

Gordano services ( gor-DAY-noh) is a motorway service station located at junction 19 of the M5 motorway at the southern end of the Avonmouth Bridge, west of Bristol, England, and close to Portishead. It is owned by Welcome Break and offers KFC, Subway and Burger King food outlets, Waitrose, WH Smith, Starbucks, toilets and shower facilities. New to Gordano services from February 2013 was the opening of another Fonebitz shop offering mobile charging leads, satnavs and ancillaries associated with motorway or general driving. The services are located off the actual junction; as such, there is only one station rather than a twin complex across the carriageway. The services lie on the Bristol side of the motorway (to the east). The grounds offer views to the Severn Bridge. The name Gordano comes from Old English and is descriptive of the triangular shape of the whole valley from Clevedon to Portishead, being the ablative singular of the Latinised form of Gorden meaning muddy valley.

Gordon Boswell Romany Museum

The Gordon Boswell Romany Museum is a collection at Clay Lake, Spalding in Lincolnshire, England. The museum was the lifetime's work of Gordon Boswell (died 27 August 2016, aged 76), who amassed a collection of artefacts, photographs, and several examples of the characteristic Gypsy wagon or Vardo. The museum also operates a number of non-Romany vehicles, including a horse-drawn hearse. Background Building bridges to the non-Romany community was a tradition in Boswell's family. His great-grandfather had been an important source of information on Romany traditions and language for Victorian academics including George Borrow. Gordon Boswell's father Sylvester published in 1970 a best-selling autobiography, The Book of Boswell, which portrayed the Romany life. Gordon Boswell gradually collected waggons, carts, and other artefacts of Romany life over many years. The museum that resulted was opened on 25 February 1995. Access The museum is open on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. from, roughly, Easter (Good Friday) to the last weekend in September each year. There is access to all exhibits for the disabled. An admission fee is charged. The museum uses one of the wagons for organised trips in the nearby Fenland.

Gordon Square Garden

Gordon Square Garden ist einer der kleineren öffentlichen Grünanlagen in der britischen Hauptstadt London. Er gehört zum Englischen Kulturerbe und zur Wolfson Foundation. Er liegt im ehemaligen Stadtteil Bloomsbury nur einen Häuserblock südwestlich entfernt vom gleich großen Tavistock Square. Diese Parkanlage wird von den vier Straßenzügen Gordon Street im Westen, Ensleigh Place im Norden sowie Gorden Square im Osten und Süden begrenzt. Südlich der Straße setzt sich die Grünanlage mit dem etwa halb so großen Woburn Square Garden fort. Gegenüber der Südwestecke des Parks liegt die anglikanische, zur Church of England gehörende Christ the King-Kirche. Zur Zeit seiner Entstehung in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts beschrieb der Schriftsteller Henry James die Region um den Gordon Square als „antiquiert und unmodisch“. Hier lebte eine große Zahl von Literaten und anderer Künstler wie etwa Lytton und James Strachey, George Bernard Shaw, Leonard Sidney Woolf, Clive Bell, Roger Fry, aber auch Wissenschaftler wie Maynard Keynes. Sie gehörten alle zur Bloomsbury Group, die von 1905 bis zum Zweiten Weltkrieg bestand. Ursprünglich war der Park wie die meisten anderen Parks in London privat und nur den Bewohnern der ihn umgebenen Häuser zugänglich. Heute gehört er zum Besitz der benachbarten Universität London, die vor allem nördlich des Parks eine Reihe von Einrichtungen innehat. An der Gordon Street liegt die nach dem Theologen Daniel Williams (1643–1716) benannte, bereits 1729 eröffnete Dr Williams’s Library (Hausnummer: 14) sowie das Archäologische Institut (Hausnummer: 31–34). Bemerkenswert sind die gusseisernen Deckel, die vor den Häusern in den Asphalt eingelassen sind und die die Kohlebelieferung vereinfachte. Diese vor allem noch rund um den Park zu sehenden Einfüllstutzen stehen wie der Park selbst und zahlreiche ihrer ihn umgebenen Häuser unter nationalem Denkmalschutz. Der Park ist eingezäunt und wird nachts geschlossen. 2005 wurde er neu möbliert und mit einem neuen Zaun versehen, der dem Originalzaun sehr ähnlich ist. Ein breiter Streifen mit Buschwerk bildet zum Zaun hin den Abschluss, während im Innern breite Kieswege Rasenflächen mit solitären Bäumen umschließen. Auf der Südseite befindet sich ein Kiosk. Vereinzelt sind Kunstwerke aufgestellt, so beispielsweise ein Denkmal zu Ehren des ersten asiatischen Nobelpreisträgers Rabindranath Tagore. Ballspiele, Hunde und offenes Feuer sind im Park verboten; Parkbänke und Abfallbehälter gehören zur Ausstattung des Parkes. Siehe auch Parks und Grünflächen in London Einzelnachweise Weblinks
Gordon Square

Gordon Square is a public park square in Bloomsbury, London, England. It is part of the Bedford Estate and was designed as one of a pair with the nearby Tavistock Square. It is owned by the University of London. History and buildings The square was developed by master builder Thomas Cubitt in the 1820s, as one of a pair with Tavistock Square, which is a block away and has the same dimensions. As with most London squares the central garden was originally for the private use of the residents of the surrounding houses, but it now belongs to the University of London and is open to the public. The square is named after the second wife of the 6th Duke of Bedford, Lady Georgiana Gordon, daughter of Alexander Gordon, 4th Duke of Gordon. The university owns many of the buildings in the square and in early 2005 it submitted an application for a refurbishment of the square, including the reinstatement of railings similar to the originals. The work was completed in 2007. The west side of the square is dominated by the listed church of Christ the King and next to it the home of Dr Williams's Library. The Institute of Archaeology, a department of University College London, is on the north side of the square. The Campaign for Science and Engineering and UCL Urban Laboratory resides in Gordon House, at the square's north-west corner. Gordon Street leads from the north-west corner with the Bloomsbury Theatre close by. The Warburg Institute (part of the School of Advanced Study) is located on the south-west corner of the square, across Tavistock Place. Nos. 16–26, on the western side of the square, were not completed until 1855, and they represent some of the last buildings created by Thomas Cubitt. The buildings now mostly house UCL academic departments. For example, No. 22 houses the Department of Science and Technology Studies. No. 53, previously home to the Percival David Collection of Chinese art, is now the SOAS Doctoral Centre. No.16 was the location of the China Institute from 1938. Passfield Hall, a halls of residence for undergraduates at the London School of Economics, is on the north side of the square. Notable residents The economist John Maynard Keynes (1883–1946) lived at 46 Gordon Square, marked by a blue plaque. Before Keynes moved in, the same house was occupied by a young Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) and her siblings (including the noted painter and interior designer Vanessa Bell) and frequented by other members of the Bloomsbury Group. The writer and biographer Lytton Strachey lived at No. 51. Houses 43 to 46 are now occupied by the School of Arts, Birkbeck, University of London.

Historique La place a été développée par le maître d’œuvre Thomas Cubitt dans les années 1820, comme faisant partie d'une paire avec Tavistock Square, qui a les mêmes dimensions. Comme pour la plupart des places de Londres, le jardin central était à l'origine à l'usage privé des résidents des maisons environnantes, mais il appartient désormais à l'université de Londres et est ouvert au public. L'université possède la plupart des bâtiments de la place et, au début de 2005, elle a déposé une demande de rénovation de la place, y compris la remise en état de garde-corps similaires aux originaux. Les travaux ont été achevés en 2007.

La rue Gordon mène du coin nord-ouest au théâtre Bloomsbury à proximité. L'Institut Warburg est situé dans le coin sud-ouest de la place, en face de Tavistock Place. Les numéros 16 à 26, du côté ouest de la place, ne furent achevés qu'en 1855 et représentent certains des derniers bâtiments créés par Thomas Cubitt. Ils hébergent désormais principalement des départements académiques de l'UCL. Par exemple, le numéro 22 abrite le Département des études scientifiques et technologiques. Résidents notables L'économiste John Maynard Keynes vivait au 46 Gordon Square marqué par une plaque bleue.

Goring Lock

Das Goring Lock ist eine Schleuse in der Themse am Goring Gap in den Chiltern Hills. Sie liegt bei Goring-on-Thames in Oxfordshire. Auf der anderen Seite des Flusses liegt Streatley in Berkshire. Die Schleuse liegt nur wenig flussaufwärts der Goring and Streatley Bridge und wurde 1787 von der Thames Navigation Commission gebaut. Das Wehr verläuft von der Schleuse zu einer Insel an der Goring and Streatley Bridge und von dort gibt es ein weiteres Wehr zum Ufer bei Streatley. Geschichte Es gab ein Wehr hier, das ursprünglich der Goring Priory gehörte und dann an einen Müller ging, der eine Stauschleuse betrieb. Ein Zeitungsbericht aus dem Jahr 1674 beschreibt wie 60 Menschen ertranken als ein Fährmann zu nah an das Wehr fuhr. Die Schleuse wurde im August 1787 aus Eichenholz gebaut. Bis 1869 wurde die Schleuse zusammen mit dem Cleeve Lock von einem Schleusenwärter betrieben. Dann gab es Pläne ein eigenes Schleusenwärterhaus zu bauen, dessen Bau sich bis ins Jahr 1879 verzögerte. Die Schleuse selbst wurde 1886 erneuert. Bei Arbeiten im Jahr 1921 wurden in der Schleusenkammer zusätzliche Tore eingebaut, so dass zwei Kammern entstanden, diese Tore wurden jedoch 2003 wieder entfernt. Der Fluss oberhalb der Schleuse Der Flussabschnitt oberhalb der Schleuse ist nur einen Kilometer lang und der kürzeste zwischen zwei Schleusen in der Themse. Der Themsepfad kreuzt den Fluss an der Goring Bridge to Streatley und verläuft auf der westlichen Seite dess Flusse bis zum Cleeve Lock.

Goring Lock

Goring Lock is a lock and weir situated on the River Thames in England at the Goring Gap in the Chiltern Hills. The lock is located on the Oxfordshire bank at Goring-On-Thames, with Streatley, Berkshire on the opposite side of the river. It is just upstream of Goring and Streatley Bridge. The lock was first built in 1787 by the Thames Navigation Commissioners The weir runs back to an island under the bridge and then another weir goes from there to the Streatley bank. History There was originally a weir and ferry here belonging to Goring Priory, which became the property of millers who kept a flash lock. A report in a newspaper of 1674 tells how 60 people drowned in the lock when the ferryman rowed too close to it. The pound lock was built in August 1787 from oak. Over several decades operation of the lock appears to have been shared with that of Cleeve Lock until 1869. Following this there were plans to build a lock-house, but this was not started until 1879. The lock itself was replaced in 1886. In the last rebuild in 1921 the lock had intermediate gates installed, making two pounds, but these were removed in the refit in 2003. Access to the lock The lock is situated almost under the bridge and is easily accessible from both Goring and Streatley Reach above the lock The reach is only just over half a mile long. The Cleeve side of the river is occupied by large gardens stretching down the hillside with several boat-houses on the river. There are islands below Cleeve lock, with weirs between them, and these extend for some distance. On the Streatley side are meadows and woods. The Thames Path, having crossed Goring Bridge to Streatley, continues through on the western bank to Cleeve Lock. Views of the lock and the weirs See also Locks on the River Thames References
