Moulton Hall

Moulton Hall is a grade I listed 17th-century manor house in Moulton near Richmond, North Yorkshire, England. The hall is built to a rectangular plan in three storeys with cellar and attics of ashlar and rubble with Westmorland slate roofs. The frontage has five bays surmounted by three unusual curved gables and the sides two bays. The house is surrounded by approximately 25 acres (10 ha) of grounds. History The hall was rebuilt on an ancient site in approximately 1650 for Leonard Smithson, who was succeeded in 1650 by his son Christopher Smithson. The latter's son George Smithson was MP for the North Riding in the First Protectorate Parliament in 1654 and briefly MP for Northallerton in 1659. On his death in 1692 the estate was sold by his widow to Sir Mark Milbanke of Halnaby. His descendant Sir Ralph Milbanke, 6th Baronet sold it to Colonel Sir James Charles Dalbiac to pay the dowry when Sir Ralph's only daughter Anne Isabella Milbanke disastrously married the poet Lord Byron in 1815. Sir Charles sold it in turn in 1836 to the Sanderson family to provide a dowry for his only daughter, Susanna, who married James Innes-Ker, 6th Duke of Roxburghe that year. The property was then occupied by members of the Sanderson family for the remainder of the 1800s, including Michael Sanderson, who died in 1850, Matthew Sanderson, who died in 1854, John Sanderson, who died in 1860, Dennison Sanderson (fl. 1863, 1871), Henry Matthew Sanderson (fl. 1890), Henry Middleton Sanderson (fl.1906). The National Trust acquired the house in 1966 and promotes its "beautiful carved staircase" as its main feature.

Abdij van Mount Saint-Bernard

De Abdij van Mount Saint-Bernard (Engels: Mount St Bernard Abbey) is een trappistenabdij in Coalville (Leicestershire), Engeland. De abdij werd in 1835 opgericht en was het eerste permanente klooster dat sinds de Reformatie in Engeland werd gesticht en de abdij is de enige verblijfplaats van de cisterciënzers in Engeland. Geschiedenis De abdij van Mount Saint-Bernard werd in 1835 gesticht op grond van Ambrose Lisle March Phillipps De Lisle, een lokale landeigenaar en katholieke bekeerling die graag het monastieke leven in dit land wilde herintroduceren. Deze grond had hij gekocht van de politicus Thomas Gisborne the Younger. De broeders vestigden zich in het half vervallen huisje op de heuvel Tynt Meadow in Charnwood Forest, dat ze "Mount Saint Bernard" noemden. De monniken begonnen al snel met het cultiveren van het wilde en dorre land en een eerste klooster werd in 1837 geopend, ontworpen door architect William Railton. Dankzij een schenking van John Talbot, de 16e graaf van Shrewsbury kon met de bouw van een permanent klooster begonnen worden. Een van de beroemdste architecten van de neogotische tijd, Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin, bood zijn diensten gratis aan en in 1844 werd het nieuwe klooster geopend op de plaats waar het nog steeds staat. In 1848 kreeg Mount Saint-Bernard de status van abdij met Dom Bernard Palmer als eerste Engelse abt sinds de Reformatie. Andere vestigingen In 1963 kon de abdij van Mount Saint-Bernard een eigen klooster oprichten in Afrika, het Onze-Lieve-Vrouwklooster van Bamenda in Kameroen dat een onafhankelijke abdij werd met een gemeenschap die voornamelijk bestaat uit Afrikaanse monniken. Deze abdij stichtte vervolgens zelf het klooster van Onze Lieve Vrouw van de Engelen in Nsugbe, Nigeria. Trappistenbier Op 6 maart 2017 trad de abdij van Mount Saint-Bernard toe tot de Internationale Vereniging Trappist. In 2017-2018 werd een brouwerij gebouwd in de abdij en vanaf 9 juli 2018 kwam Tynt Meadow Trappist Ale, een donker bier, op de markt. Waarschijnlijk zal in oktober 2018 het bier het officiële ATP-label krijgen en zo het twaalfde officiële trappistenbier in de wereld worden. Fotogalerij Externe link (en) Officiële website

Moxhull Hall

Moxhull Hall is a hotel, wedding and conference venue in Wishaw, near Sutton Coldfield, in Warwickshire, England. The manor of Moxhull was owned by the Lisle family from the 16th century and later by the Hackett family. The last Andrew Hackett died in 1815 and his widow married Berkeley Octavious Noel, a grandson of the 4th Earl of Gainsborough. Their son sold the estate to Thomas Ryland. The original manor house, which stood in Moxhull Park, now the site of The De Vere Belfry Hotel and Golf Centre, was destroyed by fire in about 1900. Losses in the fire included a fine oak staircase which had been installed from Kenilworth Castle in 1760. The then Lord of the manor, Howard Ryland, Lord Lieutenant of Warwickshire, built a new Manor House, Moxhull Hall, a short distance away at Holly Lane, Wishaw. His grandson, Thomas Howard Ryland, sold the estate in 1926 and it fell into the ownership of two other owners until, in 1969, Moxhull Hall was converted into a hotel. References Douglas V.

Moyns Park

Moyns Park is a Grade I listed country house in Steeple Bumpstead, Essex. History The home of the Gent family, until the late 19th century, was once owned by Major-General Cecil Robert St John Ives, maternal grandfather of Ivar Bryce, the next owner. Bryce was a close friend of the author Ian Fleming, who stayed at the house in the summer of 1956. When Bryce's wife, Josephine Hartford, an A&P heiress and sister of Huntington Hartford, died in 1992, she left the estate to Lord Ivar Mountbatten and George Mountbatten, 4th Marquess of Milford Haven. Ivar Bryce's first cousin Janet Mercedes Bryce had been married to David Mountbatten and was the mother of Ivar and George Mountbatten. Lord Ivar Mountbatten lived in the house with his wife, Penelope Thompson, before selling it in 1997. It is said that Fleming made final changes to his novel From Russia, with Love in the house. The house was also the location for several Hammer Horror films. The house was also used as a residential Riding School in and around 1949, with courses in dressage, show jumping and short B.H.S courses. The chief instructor was C. Coombs MBE. The area in the Le Moynes once had lands that encompassed Hedingham Castle and other villages over a swathe of Essex. The Gents held their first court at Moyns in the early 16th century and the estate grew and continued to do so under Sir Thomas Gent (Queen Elizabeth's Baron of the Exchequer, Sergeant-at-Law and later judge). According to an article in The Essex Countryside of May 1965 by GC Harper, the house was once moated, and takes its name from its first owner who had it built, Robert de Fitzwilliam le Moigne in the early 14th century, but little but the SW wing remains from the 15th century. It remained in that family for 200 years, then passed by marriage to William Gent. His son Thomas became MP for Maldon in 1571 and a 'trusted assistant' to Sir Francis Walsingham, Elizabeth 1's Secretary of State and spymaster, whence he rose to 2nd Baron of the Exchequer. He sat in judgement at the trial of the conspirators of the Babington Plot to assassinate the Queen and replace her with Mary Queen of Scots. His wealth and status led him to rebuild the west front, completed by his son Henry, as he died in 1593. Thomas signed a petition to Walsingham requesting he write to the governors of the Dutch congregation in Colchester and demand that 20–30 families return to Halstead to resume the cloth trade there, but to no avail. George Gent (d. 1818) was a magistrate for more than 60 years. The right to appoint the headmaster of the school in Steeple Bumpstead belonged until c.1835 to the owner of Moyns. The Moyns occupancy ceased in 1879 when it was sold to Major General Cecil Robert St John Ives, whose grandson John Bryce occupied it in the 1960s. The gardens of the 200-acre (81 ha) estate had yew topiary, and the paths were said to be planted to a plan by Lord Bacon, with a bowling green being one of the oldest. References
Much Wenlock Guildhall

The Much Wenlock Guildhall is a guildhall located on Wilmore Street in Much Wenlock, Shropshire. It is a Grade II* listed building. History In the aftermath of the dissolution of the monasteries, which saw the powers of Wenlock Priory suppressed, civic leaders sought a new meeting place to conduct the business of the town. The new half-timbered building which they commissioned was completed in two phases, the south end (the court room) in 1540 and the north end (the council chamber) in 1557. The design for the main frontage on Wilmore Street featured three large gables. On the ground floor, at the north end there was initially a prison (it was dismantled in 1869), in the central section there was arcading to allow markets to he held and at the southern end there was a passageway for carriages to pass through. At first floor level, the design involved tall mullion windows below each of the three gables. Internally, the principal rooms were the courtroom and the council chamber, both on the first floor. The courtroom was the venue for the Quarter sessions where the more serious offences were considered, and also the venue for the Petty sessions where more trivial offences were considered. In 1546, Alice Glaston the youngest girl ever legally executed in England was imprisoned in the ground floor cell, and placed on trial on the first floor of the building. On 13 April 1546, Glaston was led from the guildhall to Wenlock Edge where she was hanged at the age of just 11 years old. The Royal Coat of Arms, which is that of Queen Elizabeth I, was erected in the courtroom in 1589. An "inner room" for the storage of court records was created in 1616. A new cupola was erected on the roof in 1720. The council chamber was the meeting place of the municipal borough of Much Wenlock which was incorporated under the Municipal Corporations Act 1835; it was fitted out with ornate Jacobean style panelling which had been retrieved from a local country house and installed at the expense of the educationalist, William Penny Brookes in 1848. The last quarter sessions were held in the courtroom in 1951 and the last petty sessions, by then known as magistrates' courts, were held there in 1985. The council chamber ceased to be the local seat of government when Much Wenlock was absorbed into the Bridgnorth Rural District in 1966. However, it still remains the meeting place of the local town council. The chamber contains a memorial board topped by a clock in memory of 16 Allied airmen - British, Canadian and American - who were killed in aircraft crashes in the territory of Wenlock Borough during the Second World War. The principal rooms are open to visitors free of charge for entrance from April to October. The stocks and the whipping post can both be seen on the ground floor.

Mucking Marshes Landfill

Mucking Marshes landfill was a major landfill site servicing London, close to the hamlet of Mucking, in Thurrock, Essex. Covering hundreds of acres of former gravel quarry, it was one of the largest landfills in Western Europe and had been filled for decades with municipal and commercial waste floated thirty miles down the River Thames in barges to Mucking Wharf. The barges, each carrying dozens of distinctive yellow containers, were a familiar, though rarely commented-upon, sight along the Thames through Central London. Once the barges had travelled 30 miles (48 km) downstream from Walbrook Wharf (or further upstream at Wandsworth), mechanical cranes at Mucking Wharf unloaded the containers onto trucks. The trucks made their way up the artificial mound created by decades of garbage compaction that still towers over the surrounding flat landscape. Flocks of seagulls and other scavenging estuarine birds were a familiar sight as the trucks disgorged their contents. The former landfill site itself, although it dominates the village of Mucking, is guarded and surrounded by a perimeter fence more than four miles (6 km) long. Cory Environmental, the operators of the site, gated off Mucking Wharf Road so that views of the Thames meeting the North Sea could only be accessed via a circuitous footpath through the neighbouring village of East Tilbury. Conversion to a nature park Changes in London governance, including the creation of the Greater London Authority under Ken Livingstone, led to indications of a reassessment of London's waste strategy based more on recycling and less on landfill sites like Mucking Marshes. However, in 2007, Mucking Marshes Landfill was granted an extension to receive London's waste until 2010. In 2012, the site was reclaimed for community and environmental use in a project involving The Cory Environmental Trust, DP World port, and the Essex Wildlife Trust working together to create the Thurrock Thameside Nature Park. This is a 120-acre (49 ha) wildlife site open to the public, expanding to 845 acres (342 ha) over the next few years, to help establish and protect wildlife and bird populations and environments. The site also houses the recently completed Cory Environmental Trust Visitor Centre, a drum-shaped, timber-clad building designed by van Heyningen and Haward Architects. The reserve and the new building were opened on 11 May 2013 by Sir David Attenborough, who described the building as 'revolutionary'. Power generation The decomposition of organic matter within the landfill generates a gas containing up to about 50 per cent methane. This landfill gas is collected by a network of pipes and used in on-site power stations. Mucking Gas 2 Landfill Scheme has an output 3.8 MW and Mucking Gas 3 Scheme has an output 3.9 MW. Electricity is fed into the National Grid. It is envisaged that landfill gas will continue to be produced for about 30 years.
