Combe Hay Manor

Combe Hay Manor in Combe Hay, Somerset, England is a manor house. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building. The house was built in two phases for Robert Smith and his son, John. The first, western, part dates from 1728 to 1730 and is believed to have been built by John Strahan of Bristol. The later eastern and southern elevations were built around 1770 to 1775 and are believed to be the work of James Wyatt or George Steuart. History The manorial lands occupied by the present building were given by William the Conqueror to one of his kinsmen, Odo, Bishop of Bayeux, who was later to become Earl of Kent. They were described as consisting of eight carucates of arable land, forty acres of meadow, forty acres of pasture and sixty acres of coppice-wood. Odo plotted against King Rufus who succeeded William the Conqueror, was discovered in his treason and fled to France. The manor was confiscated and given to the Somerset family of "Hawey" or "Hay", which gave the manor its name. The manor continued in their possession for several generations before passing, during Edward I's reign, to Sir Peter Stradling on his marriage to Julian, the daughter and sole heir of Thomas Hawty. The estate remained with the Stradling family until, in 1644, it passed into the possession of Sir Lewis Dyve. After several changes of ownership in a short period, it passed to Robert Smith, who built the present manor house. The present owner is William Jones. The house Combe House Manor is a Grade I listed building, having been so designated on 1 February 1956. The western part of the house was built in 1728-1730 for Robert Smith and his son John, by the architect John Strahan of Bristol. The remainder of the house was constructed between 1750 and 1755, possibly by James Wyatt or George Steuart. It is built of ashlar Bath stone with hipped slate roofs and ashlar chimney stacks. It consists of two storeys with attics, these having dormer windows, and a basement that runs the length of the house. It is a substantial house with 3:2:3 bays on the west front, three bays on the south front and seven bays on the east front. The interior has much elaborate decorative plaster work, marble fireplaces and a number of panelled rooms. See also List of Grade I listed buildings in Bath and North East Somerset References

Combined Military Services Museum

The Combined Military Services Museum in Maldon, Essex, was opened on 5 July 2004. Richard Wooldridge set it up to house a personal collection he had created over many years. A charity was established in 1996 to facilitate the funding of a museum building. A suitable property was found in 2001, a former bonded warehouse in Maldon. This underwent considerable modification to suit its new purpose. During the period of setting up the museum, the initial collection was expanded by donations and acquisitions. In 2007, a National Lottery grant was given to extend the museum to house the Donnington Historic Weapons Collection. These works were completed in November 2008. Amongst the items in the museum is a Cockle Mark II canoe from the "cockleshell heroes" raid, Operation Frankton, and a large collection of Special Operations Executive (SOE) equipment and the Donnington Historic Weapons Collection. The Donnington collection also holds a replica of the Victoria Cross metal, a piece of bronze from a captured cannon from which all Victoria Crosses have been made. The original metal is still closely guarded within MoD Donnington. Amongst the rarest items in the museum are the Riggal Papers. These are the training records of Captain P M Riggal, an instructor in the SOE, found 50 years after the end of the Second World War. On 7 September 2016, nearly 100 artefacts from the museum's SOE and Mason collections were shipped to the Musée de l'Armée in Paris for an exhibition called "Guerres Secretes" ("Secret Wars"), to run from 12 October 2016 to 29 January 2017.

Dunstanburgh Castle

Dunstanburgh Castle er ruinen af en borg fra 1300-tallet, der ligger på kysten af Northumberland i det nordlige England mellem landsbyerne Craster og Embleton. Borgen blev bygget af jarl Thomas af Lancaster mellem 1313 og 1322, på et naturligt forsvaspunkt og på eksisterende volde fra et voldsted fra jernalderen. Thomas var leder for baroniets modstand mod kong Edvard 2., og han havde sandsynligvis planer om at brug Dunstandburgh som tilflugtssted, hvis den politiske situation i Sydengland blev ustabel. Borgen tjente som et statussymbol, der viste jarlens rigdom og indflydelse, og kunne konkurrere med den kongelige borg Bamburgh, der ligger i nærheden. Thomas besøgte sandsynligvis kun sin borg én gang inden den blev erobret under slaget ved Boroughbridge i 1322, da han forsøgte at flygte fra kongens hær for at søge ly på Dunstanburgh. Thomas blev henrettet og borgen blev en af kronens ejendomme, inden den blev overdraget til Hertugdømmet Lancaster. Det er en listed building af første grad Den er ejet af National Trust og drives af English Heritage.

Château de Dunstanburgh

Le château de Dunstanburgh est un château du Royaume-Uni situé sur la côte nord-est de l'Angleterre, dans le comté de Northumberland, entre les villages de Craster et d'Embleton. Il est situé sur une toute petite partie du Whin Sill qui forme ici un promontoire dominant la mer du Nord. Il est le plus grand château de la région, son site possède des traces d'occupation antérieure à sa construction au XIVe siècle. Histoire En 1313, le comte Thomas de Lancastre, cousin d'Édouard II d'Angleterre commence la construction d'une grande forteresse. Celle-ci se termine en 1322. Le château n'a pas joué un rôle important dans les guerres contre les Écossais. Lors de la guerre des Deux-Roses, il fut tenu par les Lancastre en 1462 et 1464. Les dommages subis furent importants et il tomba rapidement en ruines. Il est décrit par une source de 1550 comme un merveilleux grand vestige. Des pierres en furent dérobés pour les constructions environnantes. Son dernier propriétaire privé Sir Arthur Sutherland (en) en fit don au ministère du travail. Il est maintenant la propriété du National Trust, est classé Grade I. Sa silhouette est un des endroits les plus emblématiques de la côte du Northumberland.

Замок Данстанборо

Замок Данстанборо (англ. Dunstanburgh Castle) расположен на севере Англии в графстве Нортумберленд недалеко от южных границ Шотландии. История замка Этот когда-то самый большой в графстве замок был построен в 1313—1325 годах и первоначально принадлежал графу Томасу Ланкастеру, племяннику короля Эдуарда II. Данстанборо стоит вдали от дорог, и причиной такого расположения замка, вероятно, было желание Томаса уберечься как от набегов шотландцев, так и от гнева короля, с которым граф имел разногласия по поводу королевского фаворита Пьера Гавестона, графа Корнуэлльского. В итоге Томасу, который к тому же принимал участие в мятежах против короны, не удалось избежать мести короля — в 1322 году он был казнен. В 1362 году Данстанборо перешел в собственность Иоанна Гентского, четвертого сына короля Эдуарда III, который значительно перестроил замок. Во время Войны Алой и Белой розы цитадель Ланкастеров подверглась обстрелу, в результате чего замок был разрушен. См. также Список замков Англии Примечания Ссылки Фотографии замка на Flickr.com
Dunstanburgh Castle

Dunstanburgh Castle ligger vid Northumberlands kust i norra England, mellan byarna Craster och Embleton. Borgen är den största i Northumberland och spår på platser visar att den var bosatt långt före borgen började byggas 1313 av earlen av Lancaster. Den byggdes senare ut av Johan av Gent. Under Rosornas krig var den lancastriskt fäste, och skadades 1462 och 1464 (se Slaget vid Hexham), efter det kom den att förfalla, och sten togs från borgen för att bygga annat i området, men den står dock fortfarande kvar. Numera ägs den av National Trust och förvaltas av English Heritage. Externa länkar Wikimedia Commons har media som rör Dunstanburgh Castle. Nationel Trust - Dunstanburgh Castle Flygfoto
Замок Данстанборо

Замок Данстанборо (англ. Dunstanburgh Castle) — руїни замку на півночі Англії в графстві Нортумберленд недалеко від південних кордонів Шотландії. Історія замку Цей колись найбільший в графстві замок був побудований в 1313–1325 роках і спочатку належав графу Томасу Ланкастеру, племіннику короля Едуарда II. Данстанборо розташований далеко від доріг, і причиною такого розташування замку, ймовірно, було бажання Томаса уберегтися як від набігів шотландців, так і від гніву короля, з яким граф мав розбіжності з приводу королівського фаворита Пірса Гавестона, графа Корнуельського. В результаті, Томасу, який до того ж брав участь у заколотах проти корони, не вдалося уникнути помсти короля — в 1322 році він був страчений. У 1362 році Данстанборо перейшов у власність Джона Гентського, четвертого сина короля Едуарда III, який значно перебудував замок. Під час Війни Червоної та Білої троянди цитадель Ланкастерів піддалася обстрілу, в результаті чого замок був зруйнований.

Commercial Rooms, Bristol

The Commercial Rooms (grid reference ST587729) are on Corn Street in Bristol, England. Built in 1810 by Charles Busby, the building has sculpture by J. G. Bubb. Originally it housed a club for mercantile interests and during the mid-19th century it was a haunt of local prostitutes. The retained wind vane above the bar would let merchants know whether it was safe for their ships to negotiate the treacherous Avon Gorge, and the wall boards still contain the names of all the club's presidents, treasurers and secretaries. It is now a pub owned by Wetherspoons. History The first formal site for businessmen to meet in Bristol was the Tolzey in 1614 which was built onto the south wall of All Saints' Church. The Exchange was built in 1743, originally for use by all commercial businesses in Bristol but once the Commercial Rooms opened in 1808 the Exchange became the headquarters of the corn trade. The first president of the Commercial Rooms was John Loudon McAdam, inventor of tarmac, in 1808. The first telegraph office in Bristol was established in the Commercial Rooms in 1852 with a telegraph line out to Shirehampton so that the messenger announcing ships entering the Bristol Channel no longer had to ride by horseback into the city. After the Bristol Blitz in the Second World War conservation and restoration work was needed inside and out due to bomb damage, including recreating the head of one of the statues on the roof. In 1951 the Great Room featured a 'tape machine' which fed stocks and shares information to the room. In summertime this machine was also used to broadcast cricket scores. The building has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade II* listed building. Archives Records of the Commercial Rooms are held at Bristol Archives (Ref. 20164) (online catalogue 1) (Ref. 37454) (online catalogue 2), (Ref. 41504) (online catalogue 3), (Ref. 44059) (online catalogue 4), (Ref. 44759) (online catalogue 5). Architecture and decoration The portico is of the Grecian Ionic order, with the three statues above personifying the City, Commerce and Navigation. Above the entrance is a relief showing Britannia, Minerva and Neptune receiving gifts from earth. See also Grade II* listed buildings in Bristol References
