Mill Meece Pumping Station

Mill Meece Pumping Station is a pumping station, located in the village of Mill Meece in Staffordshire, England. Its function, powered by steam engines, was to pump water from boreholes to a reservoir in Hanchurch, from which it flows by gravity to supply the Potteries area. Description Mill Meece pumping station lies approximately 5 miles west of Stone. It is the second pumping station to be constructed in the area, the first being three miles to the north in the hamlet of Hatton. There are four boreholes on the Mill Meece site from which water is lifted. Water is raised at Mill Meece by lift pumps which deliver water to an underground tank. From there the water is lifted further by ram pumps. Both the lift and ram pumps are powered by two horizontal tandem compound Corliss valve engines using steam raised by three Lancashire boilers. The efficiency of steam-raising is increased by a Green's economiser. History Construction of the pumping station was authorised by the Staffordshire Potteries Waterworks Act 1912 (2 & 3 Geo. 5. c. lxxv). The pumping station was first put to work with one engine, two boreholes and two boilers in 1915 though did not pump to the public water supply until 1919. The second engine pumping from two new boreholes first pumped water in 1928. Both engines continued to operate until 22 December 1979. Water is still pumped from the Mill Meece site by electric pumps, but the steam engines remain in their original location. The pumping station has seen extensive restoration since it was taken over by the Mill Meece Preservation Trust with the first open day being hosted on 30 May 1981. On 18–19 July 2021 the middle boiler was returned to service and both the Ashton Frost Engine and Hathorn Davey Engine saw motion under steam once again. Visiting Mill Meece pumping station is now operated by a charity, the Mill Meece Pumping Station Preservation Trust. The website listed below provides details of when it is open to the public.

Millais School

Millais School is a girls' secondary school for students aged 11–16 in Horsham, West Sussex, England. There is no sixth form. The number on roll is over 1500. In 2011 the school became a National Teaching School. The school's catchment area serves Horsham and the villages bordering the town. The Headteacher is Dr. Alison Lodwick. Elizabeth Barnes is the Chairman of Governors. Ofsted judgements Millais achieved an Outstanding Ofsted judgement in 2010. As of 2022, the school's most recent inspection was in 2014 with every area (Achievement of pupils, Quality of teaching, Behaviour and safety of pupils, Leadership and management) judged Outstanding. History The school's history can be traced back to 1928, when the Oxford Road Senior School opened. This was a co-educational school that in 1932 had an average attendance of 208: 116 boys and 92 girls; by 1938, this number had risen to 294: 153 boys and 141 girls. After 1944, the school split into Horsham secondary boys and girls schools. As Horsham Secondary School for Girls in 1951, it received pupils from Broadbridge Heath, Slinfold, Southwater, and Colgate. In 1958, it moved to its current location on Depot Road, around the corner from the site of the Boys' school, which had moved to Comptons Lane four years previously. Both schools were renamed The Forest School, and the boys' school still retains this name. In 1976, the school became a comprehensive, and the following year was renamed The Millais School. In 1980, there were 1,097 girls on roll. In September 1996, the school was designated a language college and currently teaches five languages: French, Spanish, German, Italian and Chinese. Students are taught French and one other language for their initial three years and must then continue at least one as a full course GCSE in their final two years at the school (though many also continue a second language as either a short course, accelerated or full course GCSE). Millais has been a training school since 2006 but in 2011 was awarded National Teaching School status and was successfully re-designated as such in 2015; the school operates the Millais Alliance to this end. The school is named after John Everett Millais, and his monogram, J E M, is incorporated into the school's logo. In 2014, the school experienced a deliberately set fire that badly damaged the third floor of a building. The fire was treated as criminal in nature, and a 16-year-old girl was subsequently arrested and charged with arson and intent to endanger life.

Millfield House

Millfield House is a Grade II* listed building located in Silver Street, Edmonton, London. Previously a private house, it has been used as an arts centre since 1979. History The house is first mentioned in 1796 when it belonged to John Wigston of Trent Park. Later that year it was let to the Ambassador of Austria. The house was valued at £6,300 by 1828, when Robert Mushet of the Royal Mint died there. The house was sold in 1849 to the Strand Union Guardians for a school for London workhouse children, and over the next 40 years several extensions were made to the house which by 1897 housed 400 children. The school was partly self- sufficient complete with two meadows, cultivated land and a herd of cows and some pigs. The children were taught trades; the boys, tailoring, shoe making and carpentry; the girls, housework, needlework and laundering. In 1913 the school closed and by the beginning of World War I housed Belgian refugees. The house was converted into the St Davids Hospital for epileptics in 1915 by the Metropolitan Asylums Board. By 1971 the house was acquired by the London Borough of Enfield, who renovated and demolished some of the work house buildings, although a lodge and outbuildings from that period remain as well as an early 20th-century lodge. The house was re-opened as an arts Centre in 1979 and includes the Millfield Theatre. Weir Hall Library was on site until December 2008 but has since been relocated to Fore Street, Edmonton. The space has now been redeveloped as a cafe bar and performance space. In the gardens one of the few remaining communal air-raid shelters in Enfield can be found (which can be visited). The gardens are open to the public and can be reached by following the Pymmes Brook Trail (the brook flows through the garden) from Pymmes Park. Adjacent to the garden is the St David's play area. There is also a small library. Programme The arts centre plays host to comedy, musical, drama, dance, children's and music shows throughout the year. Most shows at the theatre are professional shows which the management bring in for a fee, or a split of the ticket sales. When hired, the venue offers the ability to sell tickets through its own box office, subject to a commission. At Millfield House several classes take place for adults, children and young people. Including pilates, chess, youth theatre, drama, manga, dance and art Club. The house underwent extensive refurbishment in 2010/11. In addition the theatre stages an annual traditional pantomime.

Milsom Street

Milsom Street in Bath, Somerset, England, was built in 1762 by Thomas Lightholder. The buildings were originally grand townhouses, but most are now used as shops, offices and banks. Most have three storeys with mansard roofs and Corinthian columns. Numbers 2 to 22 are Grade II listed. The bank at number 24 was built by Wilson and Willcox and includes baroque detail not seen on the other buildings. Numbers 25 to 36 continue the architectural theme from numbers 2 to 22. Numbers 37 to 42, which are known as Somersetshire Buildings, have been designated as Grade II* listed buildings. The Octagon Chapel was a place of worship, then a furniture shop by Mallett Antiques.

Milton's Cottage

Milton's Cottage is a timber-framed 16th-century building in the Buckinghamshire village of Chalfont St Giles. It was the former home of writer John Milton, and is open to the public as a writer's house museum. Overview In 1665 Milton and his wife moved into the cottage to escape the Plague in London. Despite Milton's having spent less than a year at the cottage, it is important because of its being his only extant residence. While at the Grade I listed 16th-century cottage, Milton completed his best known work, Paradise Lost; the seeds for Paradise Regained were also sown here. Milton's friend Thomas Ellwood called the cottage "that pretty box in St. Giles". The ground floor of the cottage is now a museum dedicated to Milton and his works. The four museum rooms contain the most extensive collection in the world on open display of 17th-century first editions of John Milton's works, both poetry and prose. Tours vividly describe and explore the extraordinary career of this blind genius in his refuge from the plague, where he wrote some of the finest poetry. The cottage's garden is also open to the public and is planted in a traditional style. Royal interest In 1887, after an attempt was made to move the house to America and rebuild it there, a movement was begun locally to purchase the house by local public subscription. Queen Victoria opened the subscription list for the purchase of the Cottage in 1887. The Cottage and garden have been visited by Elizabeth II, Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon, and Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester, on separate occasions. To celebrate the quatercentenary of Milton's birth in 2008, Charles, Prince of Wales, and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, also visited. References External links Milton's Cottage Trust website.
