Ironmonger Row Baths

Ironmonger Row Baths were built in two phases. The first, a public wash house and slipper baths, opened in 1931. The second phase, comprising the main swimming pool, the children's pool, and Victorian-style Turkish baths, opened in 1938. They are located at Ironmonger Row, in the St Luke's district, near Old Street, Islington, London. Description The baths include a steam room, a Victorian-style Turkish bath comprising a series of three hot rooms of varying temperature, marble slabs for massage and body scrubbing and an icy plunge pool. In addition there are two relaxation areas. The swimming pool is 100 feet (slightly over 30 metres) long. There is a small sauna next to the pool, as well as a well equipped modern gym located within the building. There is also a communal laundry facility (launderette) in the building. Extensive renovations to the entire building were carried out between May 2010 and December 2012. A fire in December 2021 destroyed one of the restored saunas and caused damage to the basement of the building. The facility operates numerous programs, including a branch of the Tom Daley Diving Academy. History The baths were designed by architects AWS & KMB Cross, built in 1931, and extended in 1938. They have been managed by Greenwich Leisure Limited (GLL) since the 2012 refurbishment. From just after the Second World War until the new complex at Crystal Palace was built in the late 1960s, the baths were the home of the world-famous Highgate Diving Club, who held their club night there every Friday and also met during the public sessions on Saturday mornings. The Olympic diver, Brian Phelps(winner of the bronze medal for highboard diving in the 1960 Olympics) trained there regularly with his coach, Wally Orner, as did many of the club's international and Olympic divers, such as John Chandler, John Cooze, John Miles, Billy Wood, and Alun Roberts. It was listed grade II in November 2006 and is located within St. Luke's Conservation Area.

History There has been mining in the area for hundreds of years, in 1844 a copper seam was discovered that was so big it led to a 50-year mining boom and the creation of Europe's biggest copper mine, Devon Great Consols. The copper ran low during the 1890s leading to mass unemployment and the emigration of surplus workers. World Heritage Site The valley is incorporated inside the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape which is a World Heritage Site.

The trails stretch 25 km across the Tamar Valley, taking in historic mines and woodland. The building work started in 2007 and finished in 2013 with a total investment of £7 million. A partnership of organisations own the trails which are managed by Tamar Community Trust. The trail passes wooded copses and disused mine workings and is used for walking, cycling, mountain biking, jogging or segway. Natural beauty The Valley was designated due to the natural beauty of its hills, valleys, forests, meadows and associated landscapes.

It was the largest of the series of parks designed by Captain Sandys-Winsch in Norwich. Largely unchanged from its original layout after opening in 1928, it features a selection of grade II listed buildings. History The city bought the site of the park in 1906, aided by the Norwich Playing Fields and Open Spaces Society. It remained a simple open area of grass until city parks and gardens superintendent Captain Sandys-Winsch, a protégé of Thomas Mawson, designed the park in a classical style in the 1920s, and plans were made for its construction in 1923. Its creation was part of a public works programme instigated by the city to try and address the post-war crisis of mass-unemployment; at its outset, the construction of the park was expected to provide work to 140 men for two years. Construction itself began in 1924, and Eaton Park was opened to the public in 1928 by the Prince of Wales, later Edward VIII. It featured pleasure gardens, a restaurant, a yacht pond, and facilities for the playing of cricket, tennis, bowls, football and hockey. In the 1990s, facilities were added to allow for American football to be played. Facilities Current attractions include a boat pond, crazy golf, a children's playground, a skate park, tennis courts, a putting green and bowling facilities. The park is also home to a formal rose garden and a lily pond. A bandstand surrounded by four pavilions, known as the Rotunda, lies in the centre of the park. The pavilions house a café, changing rooms, toilets and park run and tennis clubs. The bandstand hosts concerts and other events throughout the summer. References
Pewley Down

Pewley Down is a 9.5-hectare (23-acre) Local Nature Reserve on the southern outskirts of Guildford in Surrey, adjacent to Pewley Hill. It is owned and managed by Guildford Borough Council. The site is on a hill offering views south to St Martha's Hill, Chantry Wood, and beyond. History Pewley Down was owned by the Austens, a family of local merchants, from the early 16th century. Following the death of Robert Godwin-Austen in 1884, it passed to Henry Haversham Godwin-Austen. Partly as a result of the Agricultural Depression, his properties struggled financially, and Henry was declared bankrupt in 1898. In 1907, the bankruptcy trustees began to construct a road across Pewley Down in preparation for dividing the land into plots for housebuilding. After local protest, Pewley Down was purchased by the Friary, Holroyd & Healy's Brewery. On 29 July 1920 it was donated to the town of Guildford to commemorate the conclusion of the First World War, with the condition that it be "preserved for time immemorial as a playground for the people of Guildford". The deed of conveyance was formally handed over to the mayor by Mr Charles Hoskins Master, the chairman of directors. The site was designated as a local nature reserve in July 2006. An adjacent set of fields, now known as Pewley Down Meadows, were purchased by the community in 2021 and are managed by the Surrey Wildlife Trust as a local nature reserve. Nature This site is an example of chalk downland, and has several species of rare flowering plants, including pyramidal and Man orchids. Invertebrates include 26 species of butterflies, including the small blue and chalkhill blue, and 119 species of bees, wasps and ants. References External links Pewley Down Meadows
