New Mills Town Hall

New Mills Town Hall is a municipal building on Spring Bank, New Mills, Derbyshire, England. Constructed of local gritstone, it was opened in 1871 as a public hall for the Mechanics Institute, and became a town hall in 1895 upon the creation of New Mills Urban District Council, which used it as administrative headquarters until its 1974 abolition. It is now the seat of New Mills Town Council and a hireable community venue. History The middle to late nineteenth century was a period in which several public buildings were built in the town, including banks, halls, schools, and many Co-operative shops. The Mechanics' Institute of New Mills first suggested the building of a public hall in 1859 when it needed more space. It took twelve years to raise the money, entirely by public subscription, to buy the land and begin the building. Its opening ceremony took place on 9 September 1871, with the hall opened by the Duke of Devonshire. It had a multitude of uses, including public and private events, exhibitions, meetings, county courts, Local Board offices, as well as the reading rooms of the Mechanics' Institute. It was extended in 1875 to include a clock tower, and again in 1899 with the construction of a Carnegie free library to its rear (replaced by the larger present one in 1910), making New Mills one of the smallest towns in Derbyshire to operate one. The clock is made by Potts of Leeds; its original chimes were replaced in 1939. The Town Hall was transferred to the new New Mills Urban District Council in 1895 to be used as its offices. Urban districts were type of local government district which shared local government responsibilities with a county council. This was abolished in 1974 by the Local Government Act 1972, with the functions of New Mills UDC passed to High Peak Borough Council. A new town council was formed which continues to use the Town Hall for its offices and Council Chamber, shared with other public services including the Registrar and Citizens Advice. Beyond its administrative functions the New Mills Town Hall is used as originally intended, for concerts, public meetings, dances, school fairs and bazaars, exhibitions, weddings and other celebrations. Some of the archives of the heritage centre and local history society are stored here. In 1991, as part of the New Mills 600 celebrations, floodlighting was installed, and in 1994, following extensive roof repairs, the main hall was redecorated and the seating recovered, adding to its attractiveness as a venue. In 1997, accessibility was improved by the construction of a footbridge and disabled parking area. The building has not received a listing from Historic England.

Eccles Town Hall

Eccles Town Hall is a municipal building in Church Street, Eccles, Greater Manchester, England. The town hall was the headquarters of Eccles Borough Council until the council was abolished in 1974. History Shortly after it had been created in 1854, the local board of health established itself in some rented rooms in Patricroft. After civic leaders found these rooms inadequate, in the context of population growth associated with the expanding textile industry, they decided to procure a new town hall: the site they selected had been occupied by the old cockpit in the town. Although cockfighting had been regarded as cruel by the early 19th century, it was still popular in Eccles at that time. The new building was designed by John Lowe in the Edwardian Baroque style, built in red brick by Moore and Sons and was officially opened on 3 November 1881. The building became the headquarters of Eccles Metropolitan Borough when it was formed in 1892. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage with seven bays facing onto the Church Street; the central section of five bays, which slightly projected forward, featured a doorway with a fanlight on the ground floor flanked by two pairs of Corinthian order stone pilasters supporting a stone entablature with the inscription "Town Hall"; there were five round headed windows forming an arcade on the first floor, and at roof level there was a central clock tower with a cupola (containing a Thwaites & Reed chiming clock), flanked by dormer windows with mansard roofs above. Initially, the principal room was the assembly hall; the building was extended to the rear to create a new council chamber and courtroom in 1899. King George V and Queen Mary visited the town hall in 1913 and Lord Derby encouraged local military recruitment by conducting a review of the 20th Battalion Lancashire Fusiliers outside the town hall on 18 June 1915 during the First World War. King George VI and Queen Elizabeth also met civic leaders there in 1938 shortly before the Second World War. The building continued to serve as the headquarters of Eccles Borough Council but ceased to be the local seat of government when the enlarged Salford City Council was formed in 1974. The building subsequently fell into a state of disrepair until its management passed to a special purpose entity, Eccles Community Hall Organisation, in July 2010. Following the refurbishment of the assembly hall, with the support of the Heritage Lottery Fund, in 2012, it became a regular concert venue with programmes that included the works of Antonio Vivaldi, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Fritz Kreisler and Edward Elgar performed by the BBC Philharmonic in November 2015.

Stratford Place

Stratford Place is a small road in London, off Oxford Street, opposite Bond Street underground station. The road is a cul-de-sac. Stratford House Stratford House was built as the London town house of the Stratford family between 1770 and 1776 for Edward Stratford, 2nd Earl of Aldborough, who paid £4,000 for the site. The central range was designed by Robert Adam. It had previously been the location of the Lord Mayor of London's Banqueting House, built in 1565. Several people of note stayed there, including the sons of the Tsar of Russia. Clementine Hozier was born there and until 1832 the house was owned by the Wingfield Stratford branch of the family who inherited it through Edward's will. It belonged briefly to Grand Duke Nicholas Nikolaevich, a son of Tsar Nicholas I of Russia. The house was little altered until 1894, when its then owner, Murray Guthrie, added a second storey to the east and west wings and a colonnade in front. In 1903, a new owner, the Liberal politician Sir Edward Colebrook, later Lord Colebrooke, reconstructed the Library to an Adam design. In 1908, Edward Stanley, 17th Earl of Derby bought a lease and began more alterations, removing the colonnade and adding a third storey to both wings. He took out the original bifurcated staircase (replacing it with a less elegant single one), demolished the stables and built a Banqueting Hall with a grand ballroom above. In 1960 the house was purchased by the Oriental Club and converted to its present state. The ballroom was turned into two floors of new bedrooms, more lifts were added, and the banqueting hall was divided into a dining room and other rooms. The house now has a main drawing room, a members' bar, a library and an ante-room, a billiards room, an internet suite and business room, and two (non)smoking rooms, as well as a dining room and 32 bedrooms. Stratford House is a Grade I listed building. Notable buildings and occupants Stratford House (home to the Oriental Club) Number 4 Stratford Place was the headquarters of the Apollinaris Company Ltd in the early 1900s.

Sheep's Green Bridge

Sheep's Green Bridge is a footbridge over the River Cam in Cambridge, England. It is the second bridge on the river as it flows into Cambridge. It connects Coe Fen near Sheep's Green and Lammas Land. The bridge was opened in 1910 to replace the chain ferry taking ladies over to the bathing place on Sheep's Green. After deterioration in the bridge's condition it was reconstructed in 2006, the decking was relaid and the steps were replaced with ramps. The bridge is featured in the music video for "High Hopes" by the English Rock Band Pink Floyd, released in 1994. See also List of bridges in Cambridge Template:River Cam map References
Shrewsbury Park

Shrewsbury Park is a public park situated on Shooter's Hill, south of Woolwich, in the Royal Borough of Greenwich in south east London. The park is east of Plum Lane, and north of the Shooter's Hill golf course. It takes its name from the earls of Shrewsbury; the land was formerly part of the Shrewsbury estates, and Shrewsbury House (a library and community centre built in 1923 - replacing an earlier mansion built by the 15th Earl) is nearby. The house's grounds were leased for a London County Council Open Air School from 1908 and in 1928 the LCC purchased part of the grounds for public open space, which became Shrewsbury Park. Just outside the park is the Shrewsbury Barrow or tumulus, the remains of a Bronze Age burial mound. During World War II the park was the site of a barrage balloon, part of the Air Ministry's Field Scheme Nosecap for the defence of London; during the Battle of Britain it was manned by 901 County of London Barrage Balloon Squadron, based at nearby RAF Kidbrooke. Parts of the park are designated as conservation areas. The Green Chain Walk passes through the park. Shrewsbury Park includes meadows and areas of woodland, and is popular with dog walkers and joggers. The Friends of Shrewsbury Park, established in 2006, organises various events and manages volunteer park maintenance get-togethers. Projects have included installation of a drinking water fountain. North of the park is Dot Hill, a former allotment site that has now reverted to grassland and scrub, or 'emergent woodland'. A small stream runs at the eastern end. References
Deal Pier

Deal Pier is the last remaining fully intact leisure pier in Kent. It is the third pier to exist in Deal and was opened in November 1957 by the Duke of Edinburgh. Its structure was extensively refurbished and repaired in 1997, with work including the replacement of much of the concrete cladding on the pier's main piles. Work began in April 2008 to construct a new pier-head with a modern restaurant which opened the same year. History Early piers The seafront at Deal has been adorned with three separate piers in the town's history. The first, authorised by the Deal Pier Act 1838 (1 & 2 Vict. c. xxviii), was designed by Sir John Rennie, although its wooden structure was destroyed during a storm in 1857. Originally intended to be 445 feet (136 m) in length, financial problems meant just 250 feet (76 m) was completed, which when opened, was just the sixth pier in the country. In 1864, a second 1,100 feet (340 m) long pier designed by Eugenius Birch opened, with extensions in 1870 adding a reading room and a pavilion in 1886. It sustained impact damage several times during the 1870s and was acquired by Deal Council under the Deal Pier Order 1920. A popular pleasure pier, it survived until the Second World War, when it was struck and severely damaged by a mined Dutch ship, the Nora, in January 1940. Permission to demolish the pier was authorised by Winston Churchill, which left just the shore-side toll house, itself later demolished in 1954. In December 1950, the Deal Corporation received a grant of £750 (equivalent to £29,800 in 2024) to compensate for damage sustained during the war. Third pier The present pier, designed by Sir W. Halcrow & Partners, was opened on 19 November 1957 by the Duke of Edinburgh. Constructed predominantly from concrete-clad steel, it is 1,026 feet (313 m) in length and ends in a three-tiered pier-head, featuring a cafe, bar, lounge, and fishing decks. The lowest of the three tiers is almost permanently underwater except for the lowest tide and has become disused. A notice announces that it is the same length as the RMS Titanic, but that ship was over 100 feet (30 m) shorter. The pier is a popular sport fishing venue. In 2018, the pier underwent restoration at a cost of £500,000, in addition to installing more than 300 metres (980 ft) of gas mains supply, as the pier's own gas supply had developed problems. Refurbishment works included resurfacing, replacement and repainting of railings and an upgrade to the drainage system. The works coincided with the 60 year anniversary of the pier's official opening. References Citations Sources

Ampthill Square Estate

The Ampthill Square Estate, also known as the Ampthill Estate, is a housing estate in the London Borough of Camden in London, England. The estate is located in the Somers Town district, on the south side of Harrington Square, east side of Hampstead Road, and west side of Eversholt Street. The estate was built in the 1960s to replace dilapidated Victorian housing in the area. It is composed of eight 6-storey blocks on its east side and three distinctive 21-storey high rises on the west side, which dominate the local skyline. In total, the estate has 366 flats and maisonettes: 240 of which are in the towers. The estate was reclad in the 1980s. Its cladding was found in 2017 to be solid aluminium, after fears it might be the same ACM cladding as Grenfell Tower. It received a further £20m in investment in 2005. The site was formerly known as Fig Mead. It was developed as a garden suburb by the Duke of Bedford, as part of the Bedford Estate in 1800. It takes its names from Ampthill, the Bedfordshire town where the Dukes of Bedford owned Houghton House. Half of the square itself was soon bought by the London and Birmingham Railway for its tracks into Euston station. In this time, Charles Dickens bought his mistress Ellen Lawless Ternan a house at 2 Houghton Place, Ampthill Square. However, it fell into disrepair, including being directly hit by a bomb in the Second World War, and the estate was built on the site. While Ampthill Square previously had two bridges that crossed the railways that fed into Euston, the rebuilt estate is separated from the western side of the railway. References
