Brograve Mill

Brograve Mill is a windpump located on Brograve level in the parish of Sea Palling within the Norfolk Broads National Park, United Kingdom. It can be found at grid reference TG448235 and is approximately 1 mile north of Horsey Mere. The mill is a Grade II listed building. History The Brograve windmill water pump is of red brick construction, now lying in an extremely dilapidated and unsafe state. Built in 1771 by Sir Berney Brograve, 1st Baronet (1726–1797), it is thought to have last worked around 1930. The mill had an 8-bladed windmill fantail, with a boat-shaped cap carrying two pairs of patent shuttered sails, powering an internal turbine pump. Its purpose was to drain the Brograve levels into the man-made Waxham New Cut. It is one of two mills on this water course, the other being Lambridge Mill (also derelict), located about 1 mile south of Sea Palling. Today Only two stocks and two stubs of the original sails remain. The mill has a very westward lean to it, inspiring the myth that a furious Devil tried to foil Brograve's drainage efforts by blowing it down. Separated by the Cut, Brograve Mill cannot be directly reached on foot. However, it can be seen very closely from various eastern perspectives by following a path along the Waxham New Cut from Horsey Mere (see illus.), where there is also a farm track on private property owned by Brograve Farm. The only direct access the mill would be by boat along the Waxham New Cut, however entering the structure is strongly discouraged as it is in a very unsafe state. Further reading References
Brookmill Park

Brookmill Park, formerly known as Ravensbourne Park, is a small public park and nature reserve located in Deptford and is in the London Borough of Lewisham. It runs parallel to Brookmill Road and the River Ravensbourne. It is located between Deptford Bridge and Elverson Road on the Docklands Light Railway (DLR). History of the park The park began life in 1880 as a small recreation ground near the Kent Waterworks' reservoir, which supplied water to homes in Deptford and Greenwich, drawing water from the Ravensbourne. In the 1920s, part of the by then disused reservoir was infilled and added to the area, creating Brookmill Park. Nearby housing in Brookmill Road was destroyed during World War II and cleared ground was used to enlarge the park, which re-opened in 1951 as Ravensbourne Park. In 1965, Lewisham and Deptford were amalgamated into one London borough and the park reverted to its earlier name of Brookmill. During DLR extension to Lewisham in the 1990s, the River Ravensbourne was rerouted. Most of the park to the east of the river was used for the DLR track and the Ravensbourne's new channel became the eastern boundary of the park. The park was re-landscaped by W.S. Atkins, also incorporating a site that had belonged to Thames Water as a formal garden with ponds, pergolas and flowerbeds. The park reopened in 1998. Layout and notable features The park runs parallel to the River Ravensbourne along its eastern side and Brookmill Road on the western side. It covers an area of 1.92 hectares (5 acres), or 3.6 hectares (9 acres) if the River Ravensbourne is included. Part of the former reservoir remains as a small lake within the park – this had been drained but was reinstated after a local campaign. The footpath and cycle path in the park are part of the Waterlink Way, which runs through Lewisham and Bromley. They also form part of National Cycle Route 21, which extends from the River Thames at Creekside to Eastbourne. Biodiversity The lake is surrounded by mature trees, including London planes. The south of the park contains an area of native plants on disused railway embankment. With areas of marsh, water and grassland, some of which floods at high tides, the park is considered an important nature conservation area within the borough of Lewisham. Bird species sighted at the park include kingfisher, grey heron, moorhen, little egret, goldcrest and grey wagtails. Species found in the river Ravensbourne include stone loach, miller's thumb and invertebrates including gammarus, caddisfly and olives.

Broom Hall

Broom Hall is a historic house in the City of Sheffield, England that gives its name to the surrounding Broomhall district of the city. History The earliest part of the house is timber-framed; it has been tree-ring dated to c1498, and was built by the de Wickersley family, whose ancestral home was at Wickersley. The de Wickersley family descended from Richard FitzTurgis, who co-founded Roche Abbey in South Yorkshire. The de Wickersley family later dropped their Norman name (FitzTurgis) in favour of the village they controlled. The home later fell to the Swyft (Swift) family, after Robert Swift of Broomhall married Ellen, daughter and heir of Nicholas Wickersley, son and principal heir of John Wickersley of Wickersley and Broomhall. In the 16th century Broom Hall came into the possession of the Jessop family after marriage to a Swyft heiress. The Jessops added an extension to the house c.1614 and rebuilt sections of the house later in the 17th century. An east wing was added in 1784 for the then owner reverend James Wilkinson, vicar of Sheffield. In 1791, while James Wilkinson was still the owner, a mob rioting against the Enclosure of land act attacked the house and set it on fire. The house was divided into three in the 19th century but was restored as the home and workshop of the cutlery designer David Mellor from 1973 to 1990. It was further restored in 1988 and has since been converted for use as offices. It is a Grade II* listed building. See also Listed buildings in Sheffield References
Broomfield Park, Palmers Green

Broomfield Park is a 21 hectare public park in Palmers Green in the London Borough of Enfield. It is a Site of Local Importance for Nature Conservation and is registered by English Heritage in the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens for its special historic interest History The park was the garden of Broomfield House, which was built in the sixteenth century, although the oldest part of the present house is about 200 years old. Rocque's map of Middlesex in 1754 shows the park with its current boundaries, with ponds and an avenue. Three of the four ponds date from the eighteenth century, but the northernmost one was created early in the twentieth. In 1902 Southgate Urban District Council purchased the house and grounds, and they were opened to the public in 1903. The house was gutted by fires in the 1980s and 1990s and has remained in a derelict state since then. In August 2019, a new wetland area was opened in the park, with the aim of creating a new wildlife habitat and improving river water quality nearby. Facilities The park has tennis, basketball and netball courts, a conservatory, a bandstand (where music events are occasionally held) a children's playground and a garden of remembrance. Two former bowling greens have been re-purposed, one for a community orchard and the other as an events space. An active group of volunteers, 'Friends of Broomfield Park', have in collaboration with Enfield Council, revived the conservatory, herbaceous borders, lakes and parkland. Volunteers are planting new trees and hedgerows. Arthur Mee described it as "one of the most charming and varied in all the London area". The park has a variety of wildlife habitats, including the lakes, some small woods and magnificent oak trees. Aquatic plants include rigid hornwort, which is rare in London. There are also breeding birds such as Canada geese, mallard, tufted duck, coot and moorhen. There used to be a running track at the North East of the park. There is a community run cafe staffed by volunteers. Access The park is bounded by Aldermans Hill, Powys Lane, Broomfield Lane and Broomfield Avenue, and there is access from all sides.

Buckingham Old Gaol

Buckingham Old Gaol, sometimes known as Lord Cobham’s Castle, is a historic building in Buckingham, the former county town of Buckinghamshire, England. The building is now a museum, shop and tourist information centre and is located on Market Hill in the town centre. It is a member of the Milton Keynes Heritage Association and the Association of Independent Museums. History Following an Act of Parliament passed on 30 June 1747 (21 George 2 c.12, known as Lord Cobham's Act), the original prison building was erected in 1748. The bulk of funding was from Richard Temple, fourth baronet of Stowe (1675–1749), who had been previously MP for Buckingham. It was built in the Gothic style. One of the prisoners jailed here was the prize fighter Simon Byrne. He was tried at the Buckingham Assizes in 1830 for the manslaughter of another prize fighter, Alexander M'Kay. The rounded front of the building was added in 1839, designed by George Gilbert Scott, a local architect. This provided accommodation for the jailer and became known as the Keeper's Lodge. For around 60 years, the Old Gaol acted as the police station for Buckingham, until a new police station was built a short distance away on Moreton Road. In 1891 it became a fire station, and the C Company of the 1st Bucks Rifles rented part of the building for their armoury from 1892 until 1926. In 1907, public toilets were installed. In the 1950s, it became an antiques shop and café. In 1974, the Aylesbury Vale District Council took over responsibility for the building. Buckingham Heritage Trust was formed in 1985 to save the building and it opened as a museum in 1993, together with a tourist information centre. The Old Gaol Museum obtained finance from the Heritage Lottery Fund to add a glass roof over the original prisoners' exercise yard in 2000. Museum The museum is open to the public and tells the story of Buckingham and rural life, including the Flora Thompson Collection (author of Lark Rise to Candleford) and Buckinghamshire Military Trust exhibits. A number of the original cells form part of the museum exhibits. The Buckinghamshire Military Museum Trust is based at the museum, and houses its collections there. In addition to arms, regalia, and other military memorabilia, the Buckinghamshire Military Museum Trust also holds a small collection of military musical instruments, including early examples of rope-tensioned side drums.

Би Пи

„Би Пи“ (на английски: BP plc, до май 2001 г. – Бритиш Петролиум, British Petroleum) е международна енергийна компания със седалище в Лондон, Великобритания. Дружеството е третото по големина в енергийния сектор и четвъртото по големина в света. Инициалите на компанията BP произлизат от старото юридическо име British Petroleum. Енергийният гигант е най-голямата корпорация във Великобритания, имаща и свое американско подразделение, което е базирано в Хюстън, САЩ. Компанията участва в регистъра на Лондонската фондова борса и Нюйоркската фондова борса и е съставна част от индекса FTSE 100. На 20 април 2010 г. експлозия на нефтената платформа „Deepwater Horizon“ в Мексиканския залив (платформата работи за Би Пи) довежда до смъртта на 11 души и неконтролирано изтичане на петрол в морските води, продължило близо 3 месеца. Разливът на нефт се оценява като една от най-големите екологични катастрофи в света, застрашаваща живота на екосистемите в Мексиканския залив. От своя страна компанията е подложена на сериозна критика от страна на американското правителство, неправителствени и природозащитни организации, заради невъзможността ѝ да се справи с петролния разлив. Това предизвиква сериозно поевтиняване на акциите ѝ и обществено негодувание срещу компанията. Бележки

BP (firma)

BP, dříve také British Petroleum, je britská energetická společnost zaměřující se hlavně na ropné produkty, zemní plyn a v poslední době i na fotovoltaiku. Základní složení tvoří pět společností – BP, Amoco, ARCO, Castrol a Aral. Sídlo této společnosti je v Londýně. Společnost vznikla v roce 1909 jako Anglo-Persian Oil Company a v roce 1954 byla přejmenována na The British Petroleum Company. V roce 1998 se sloučila se společností Amoco, což byla do té doby největší průmyslová akvizice vůbec. BP je v současnosti čtvrtou největší společností na světě dle příjmů a známosti a třetí největší v sektoru energetických firem. V roce 2010 se v Mexickém zálivu odehrála havárie plošiny Deepwater Horizon patřící koncernu BP. Nadále firma prodává aktiva v hodnotě 119 miliard korun. V roce 2020 BP poprvé ve své historii snížil dividendu. Tentýž rok vykázal největší ztrátu. V reakci na ruskou invazi na Ukrajinu oznámila firma BP koncem února 2022, že se zbaví svého téměř pětinového podílu v ruské ropné společnosti Rosněfť, což si má vyžádat náklady až 25 miliard dolarů. Firma také oznámila, že její zástupci Bernard Looney a Bob Dudley odstoupili ze správní rady Rosněfti. Podle výzkumu Climate Accountability Institute je to společnost se šestým největším příspěvkem znečištění oxidem uhličitým na světě (34,02 mld. tun CO2 vypuštěného do atmosféry od roku 1965).

BP (energibolag)

BP p.l.c., tidigare Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, British Petroleum Company och BP Amoco, är ett brittiskt multinationellt petroleum- och naturgasbolag. Historik Anglo-Persian Oil Company (APOC) grundades 1908 sedan man hade funnit ett stort oljefält i Masjed Soleyman i Iran. Projektet leddes och finansierades av William Knox D'Arcy som 1901 hade getts tillåtelse av shahen att söka efter olja i Iran, han blev direktör i företaget. APOC var det första företaget som använde oljereserverna i Mellanöstern. APOC bytte namn till Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC) 1935 och blev 1954 British Petroleum Company. I december 1998 efter samgåendet med Amoco till BP-Amoco och 2000 till bara BP. År 2000 blev Burmah Oil uppköpt av BP. BP i Sverige Svenska BP bildades 1922. Färgerna var från början blå och vit men ändrades senare till grönt och gult. Företaget drev bensinstationer runt om i landet men såldes till England som snabbt döpte om det till British Petroleum. Svenska BP övertog med tiden mackar från Murco och automatstationskedjan MACK. Genom att köpa upp Murphy Oil på 1970-talet, hade BP kommit in på USA-marknaden. Murphy Oil fanns då redan på den svenska marknaden med Murco-kedjan av bensinstationer medan lågpriskedjan MACK var ett dotterföretag till Murco. BP försvann som bensinstationsmärke i Sverige 1994. De flesta BP-mackarna blev Statoilmackar. Några mindre stationer togs över av Uno-X. BP:s verksamhet i Sverige är numera inriktad på flygfotogen och smörjmedel. BP äger dessutom en plastindustri i Sverige. Oljeutsläppet i Mexikanska golfen I april 2010 drabbades BP av en stor olycka då en av bolagets inhyrda oljeplattformar, Deepwater Horizon, exploderade och sjönk i Mexikanska golfen strax utanför delstaten Louisianas kust vilket resulterade i ett mycket stort oljeutsläpp. Den 1 januari samma år efterträdde Carl-Henric Svanberg Peter Sutherland som styrelseordförande. Efter oljekatastrofen i mexikanska golfen avgick Tony Hayward från sin post. Den kommande VD:n är Bob Dudley. Den 15 december stämde den amerikanska staten BP och fyra andra företag däribland Transocean för den katastrofala oljeläckan i mexikanska golfen.
