Maulden Wood

Maulden Wood is a woodland situated in Bedfordshire, England, near the village of Maulden, on the greensand ridge that stretches from Leighton Buzzard to Gamlingay. It includes Maulden Wood and Pennyfather's Hill, a 148.8 hectare, biological Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Overview Maulden Wood is classed as a semi-natural broadleaf woodland, on acidic grassland and includes some conifer plantations. Paths through the lead can be reached from Maulden Church, through Church Field, and from the A6 road layby through the wood. There are grasslands in the centre of the wood. They are managed by the Greensand Trust and Forestry England. Scientific interest Much of Maulden Wood is designated as an (SSSI) for the acidic grassland and heathland interest, and wildlife includes badger sets, foxes, and barn owls. The site is important for invertebrates and plants which are indicative of the varied clay and sandy gravel soil. One notable invertebrate is limax cinereoniger, a mollusc that is also indicative of unmanaged ancient woodlands. The rare Wild Service Tree Sorbus torminalis also grows in the drier places deep in the wood. The northern end of the wood is also an SSSI because of its importance as one of Bedfordshire's largest remnants of ancient woodland in addition to the nearby King's Wood. Maulden wood is green most of the year round due to the large percentage of pine and other evergreen trees. Hedgerows around the perimeter contain bindweed, sticky willy, honeysuckle, and trumpet flowers (Bindweed). Snowdrops and cowslips grow prolifically in the early spring. In the mid to late spring, bluebells can be found in the middle of the wood and on the waysides. The southern end of the wood is sometimes called Pennyfather's wood. It is situated on greensand, whereas the rest of Maulden Wood is situated on a cap of glacial boulder clay. There also some rare species of sawfly (Symphyta, Pamphilius sylvarum and Caliroa cinxia, which feed on the resident oak (Quercus) trees. Another sawfly, Pamphilius gyllenhali, has been recorded in the wood, which feeds on willow Salix alba. There are also notable species from several major invertebrate groups including the beetles, dragonflies and butterflies. History The north of Maulden Wood includes several Roman and Iron Age archaeological sites along Limbersey Lane and on the site of Limbersey Farm. There are also sites within the wood of medieval origin, especially on the north end of the wood, and on the west (Maulden) end of the wood. The north end of the lay by on the A6 is the site of the 1961 A6 murder. Access Maulden Wood is open to the public all year round. It is accessed from the Deadman's Hill layby on the A6 adjacent to the wood. and from Maulden Church Meadow. References
Mauretania, Bristol

The Mauretania is a pub in the English city of Bristol, built in 1870 by Henry Masters, with a rear extension being added in 1938 by WH Watkins. It has been designated by English Heritage as a grade II listed building. Some of the furnishings from the RMS Mauretania were installed in a bar/restaurant complex at the bottom of Park Street, initially called "Mauretania", now "Java". The lounge bar was the library with mahogany panelling: above the first-class Grand Saloon with French-style gilding overlooks Frog Lane. The neon sign on the south wall still advertises the "Mauretania": installed in 1938 this was the first moving neon sign in Bristol. References
Trentham Mausoleum

The Trentham Mausoleum is a Grade I listed mausoleum in Trentham, Stoke-on-Trent, built as the final resting place of the Dukes of Sutherland from the Leveson-Gower family. History The mausoleum was built in 1807–08 for George Leveson-Gower, the 2nd Marquess of Stafford and later 1st Duke of Sutherland by architect Charles Heathcote Tatham. Heathcote Tatham was a friend of Elizabeth, the Duke's wife, and along with his commission he constructed several buildings, including a lodge and bridges, at the nearby Trentham Hall. Architecture The mausoleum is constructed in ashlar in a neo-classical style with Egyptian details. The corners of the building feature striped Graeco-Egyptian pylon-like structures, which may have been influenced by Heathcote Tatum's time in Paris, where the style was particularly popular in the late 18th century. The entrance doorway is relatively small with doors decorated in highly ornate wrought-iron work and a heavy stone lintel. The mausoleum is surmounted by a small tower, with louvred windows and a pyramidal roof. Above the doorway is the family coat of arms and the inscription "MDCCCVIII", signifying the completion date of 1808. Conservation The condition of the building has given cause for concern, and although some urgent repairs have been completed, as of 2021 it is on the Heritage at Risk Register.

Mawley Hall

Mawley Hall is a privately owned 18th-century country mansion near Cleobury Mortimer, Shropshire, England. It is a Grade I listed building. The Blount family of Sodington Hall, Mamble, Worcestershire, wealthy coalowners and ironfounders, acquired estates in neighbouring Shropshire. They were prominent Roman Catholics and Walter Blount was created a baronet in 1624 (see Blount baronets). As Royalist supporters and therefore on the losing side during the English Civil War they suffered financial difficulties in the 17th century but their fortunes recovered following the English Restoration of 1660. In 1730 Sir Edward Blount commissioned Francis Smith of Warwick to design a new mansion house for the estate at Mawley. It is built on a rectangular plan of nine by seven bays with a nine bay three storey entrance front to the north east. The advanced three central bays carry Doric pilasters and pediment. The garden front to the south west is similar in design and decoration with a central entrance approached by a double flight of steps with wrought iron balustrades. The house is particularly noted for its Baroque interiors, plasterwork by Francesco Vassalli and the Adam style dining room. Lady Elizabeth Blount had married the 9th baronet and she brought up their family here. Afterwards she attracted much attention as an exponent of the flat Earth theory, conducting convincing, but flawed experiments to prove the claim. The Blounts were in residence until the mid-20th century. In 1962 the house was sold to Anthony Galliers Pratt, who carried out a total restoration, then again in 2018 for £10 million to the hedge-fund billionaire Chris Rokos.

Mayfield Grammar School

Mayfield Grammar School (formerly Gravesend Grammar School for Girls) is a grammar school with academy status, located off Old Road West (B261) in Gravesend, Kent, England. The school accepts girls at age 11 by examination and both girls and boys at age 16, based on their GCSE results. History The school was founded in 1914 as the County School for Girls, and moved to its present site in 1926. Currently the school has the main site, consisting of four buildings and an additional site known as Bainbridge (previously known as the "Isaac Newton Building" and often referred to as the IN) which consists mainly of sports and technology facilities, as well as drama. Both sites are situated on Pelham Road and are approximately a 5-10 minute walk from each other. Throughout its history the school has remained selective and was known as Gravesend School for Girls, prior to becoming Gravesend Grammar School for Girls. The school was renamed "Mayfield Grammar School, Gravesend" in September 2011 due to the number of boys in the sixth form which deemed the part of the name 'for Girls' as unsuitable. This action sparked much controversy within the school itself, former pupils, parents, and the local community. The school achieved dual specialisms in Science and Languages. Sixth form The sixth form currently contains approximately 250 students, of both boys and girls, studying A Levels in a variety of subjects.

Mayflower (ångfartyg)

Mayflower är en ångdriven bogserbåt från 1861 i Bristol i Storbritannien. Mayflower byggdes i stål av G.K. Stothert & Marten i Bristol 1861 för att bogsera små segelbåtar och timmerflottar på Gloucester and Sharpness Canal och på floden Severn. Hon är på 32 bruttoregisterton, 19,81 meter lång, 3,64 meter bred och med ett djupgående på 2,13 meter. Mayflower bogserade flytetyg mellan hamnarna i Sharpness och Gloucester. Hon var i slutet av 1880-talet den mest sjövärdiga bogserbåten i området och byggdes då om för uppdrag i Bristolkanalen. Den ursprungliga encylindriga ångmaskinen byttes 1899 ut mot en vertikal kompoundångmaskin, kompletterad med ny ångpanna, skorsten och propeller. År 1948 tog British Waterways Board över kanalen och moderiserade bogserbåtsflottan. Eftersom Mayflower var gammal, kom hon inte att kostas på vid moderniseringen till dieseldrift, utan användes för ströuppdrag. År 1967 såldes hon på auktion för skrotning. Tre privatpersoner köpte henne för att bevara båten, men hade inte råd att rusta upp. År 1981 övertogs hon av Bristol Museums & Art Gallery, som restaurerade henne med hjälp av frivilliga 1981-87. Mayflower ägs och drivs av Bristol Museums Galleries & Archives och har Bristol som hemmahamn.
