Chandlings

Chandlings, or Chandlings Prep School, known until 2007 as Chandlings Manor School, is an independent co-educational preparatory school at Bagley Wood near Kennington, a village south of Oxford. The school occupies a site of 62 acres (25 hectares), and is a member of the Independent Association of Prep Schools. History Chandlings was founded in 1994 as a co-educational day-school by the governors of Cothill House to supplement the preparatory boarding school education for boys at Cothill. In its early years, it was known as Chandlings Manor School. Present day The school is operated by Radley Schools Group, an educational charity registered in England, which also operates other preparatory schools in England. Chandlings is a co-educational school which has a nursery and a pre-prep department, which delivers an Early Years Foundation Stage programme for children up to year 2, and then a prep department, for years 3 to 6. Pupils are divided into three houses: Richardson (colour: red), Astley (dark blue) and Poltimore (green). The headmaster is Adam Mallins. The Good Schools Guide says: The name conjures up ancient stones, mullioned windows, the faded grandeur of an ancient aristocratic line. The reality is more of a 62-acre Southfork Ranch/nouveau Cotswold mash-up with added fountains. Parents be reassured, these well-appointed low-rise buildings do, in fact, lend themselves very well to a school. Publications Clare Walsh, Get Cooking!

The building is an exemplary architecture project of British Post-Modernism style. Cascades was the Winner of Architectural Brickwork Award in 1989, and Grade II listed building in 2018.

Fusilier Museum

The Fusilier Museum is a museum in Bury, Greater Manchester, England. Its collection includes the uniforms, medal and artefacts of the Lancashire Fusiliers. History The Fusilier Museum was originally housed in the Wellington Barracks on Bolton Road. In 2009, the museum moved into the former Bury Arts and Crafts Centre building on Broad Street, which had closed in December 2004 after 110 years on the site. The new museum was officially opened by the Duke of Kent on 25 September 2009. The Lancashire Fusiliers Regiment ceased to exist in 1968 after it was amalgamated into the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers along with three other Regiments. Thus the museum is part of a family of other Fusilier museums: the Fusiliers Museum of Northumberland in Alnwick Castle, the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers Museum (Royal Warwickshire) in Warwick and the Fusiliers Museum (London) at the Tower of London. Architecture The building was originally designed as a Technical School for Bury Borough Council by local architect Joshua Cartwright in the Neo-Renaissance style, and completed in 1893. It was built on land acquired from Frederick Stanley, 16th Earl of Derby. The frontage bears the inscription "Technical School" and is decorated with a frieze of five panels, each containing five sculpted relief figures representing the crafts and skills that were taught at the school, including mathematics, science, engineering, printing, pottery, literature and music. The figures were sculpted by John Jarvis Millson and J.R. Whittick. In the 1940s, the Technical School was reorganised as the School of Arts and Crafts, and later the Arts and Crafts Centre. It is now a Grade II listed building. Collection The museum houses the collection of the Lancashire Fusiliers, commemorating over three hundred years of the regiment's history. Beside the museum stands the Gallipoli Garden and the Grade II*-listed Lancashire Fusiliers War Memorial. Victoria Crosses held by the museum The museum holds the Victoria Crosses awarded to the following members of the regiment: Sergeant Harold John Colley, 10th Battalion, Lancashire Fusiliers (First World War) Lance Sergeant William Kenealy, 1st Battalion, Lancashire Fusiliers (First World War) Private John Lynn, 2nd Battalion, Lancashire Fusiliers (First World War) Second Lieutenant John Schofield, 5th Battalion, Lancashire Fusiliers (First World War) Sergeant Frank Edward Stubbs, 1st Battalion, Lancashire Fusiliers (First World War) Gallery See also List of museums in Greater Manchester References External links Fusilier Museum website

BAC Concorde G-BBDG

G-BBDG, known as "Delta Golf", is the British development Concorde built for evaluation testing. Along with the French Concorde F-WTSB, the aircraft was used to enable sufficient testing to allow for the Concorde fleet to receive certification. On retirement the aircraft was stored at Filton airfield from the mid-1980s until 2003, when she was transported by road to the Brooklands Museum in Weybridge, Surrey. History G-BBDG first flew on 13 February 1974, having been registered on 7 August 1973. Delta Golf's main uses were finalising the Concorde design and certification prior to Concorde entering passenger service. There were some differences between this aircraft and the final production aircraft, such as a thinner fuselage skin. The aircraft was painted in British Airways livery throughout the testing period. The final flight of Delta Golf was on 24 December 1981, the aircraft had flown a total of 1282 hrs 9 mins. After the final flight, Delta Golf was stored at Filton in a state of semi-airworthiness throughout 1982 where it could be returned to flight in two weeks if required. However this was never required, and the aircraft was eventually bought by British Airways as part of a Concorde support buy-out in 1984. The aircraft never entered commercial service with British Airways; instead, it was used as a major source of spare parts, allowing the airline to operate a fleet of seven aircraft. A hangar was constructed for her at Filton airfield in the late 1980s; the tail was removed prior to the aircraft being placed in storage. In 1995, Concorde G-BOAF had its nose damaged in a handling accident at Heathrow Airport. British Airways swapped this nose with that of G-BBDG. As well as the nose and tail, other parts were removed, including the engines, landing gear and most of the hydraulics system. The original nose was later repaired at Brooklands and returned to G-BBDG. The aircraft was considered for scrapping many times, but was always found to be useful, and was used for a number of additional tests on the ground during her stay at Filton. In 2001, Delta Golf was used to test reinforced cockpit doors required for all aircraft after the September 11 attacks. When British Airways and Air France retired their fleets in 2003, Brooklands Museum at Weybridge in Surrey accepted the aircraft as a museum exhibit. It was dismantled into five major sections and transported by road to Brooklands Museum. The task of structurally disassembling and reassembling the aircraft was carried out by Air Salvage International (ASI). Delta Golf was then restored by a team of over 100 museum volunteers who included staff and students from the University of Surrey. The Concorde Experience was opened at the museum in July 2006 by Prince Michael of Kent; it allows visitors to enter the aircraft and experience a virtual flight at speeds up to Mach 2.
