Lockgate Mill

Lockgate Mill also referred to locally and historically as Freethorpe Mill, 'Banham's Black Mill' and 'Duffel's Mill' is a windpump located on the Halvergate Marshes in the detached parish of Freethorpe within The Broads in the English county of Norfolk. It is approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) west of Great Yarmouth, and 3 miles (4.8 km) north-east of Berney Arms on the northern edge of Breydon Water. The structure is a Grade II listed building. History The current mill at this location was built somewhere between 1800 and 1825 under the name 'Freethorpe Mill', it is four stories high and built of red brick tarred black. The structure stands at 35 feet to the curb and the diameter of the base is 24 feet, housing two doors and 4 windows. A farm once stood next to the mill, it was known as Lockgate Farm and was demolished in 1981 after many years of being derelict. When operational, the mill was driven by four patent sails that turned in a clockwise direction, these drove a 19 ft diameter external scoopwheel with 7 inch paddles. Unusually for a mill on the halvergate marshes it didn't drain into the Halvergate Fleet even though it is only 800 yards from the connection of the fleet with Breydon water. Instead it drained Acle marshes that lie to the north of the mill. The earliest recorded marshman of the mill was a Mr Dan Banham, followed subsequently by Mr Bob Banham. The Banham family ceased working the mill in the early 1920s and was taken over for a short period by Mr Gordon Addison, who lived in the nearby Lockgate Farm. The final marshman that worked the mill was Mr Leonard Carter, who left the mill in the mid-1940s. After Leonard Carter left the mill, it began to fall into disrepair. In 1953 the sails were blown off the mill in a gale and was left to deteriorate until a temporary aluminium cap was fitted in 1988 to protect the remains of the mill. Today In 2001 a fire started by vandals damaged the inside of the mill and has blackened some of the external and internal brickwork. The mill can be reached on the Weavers' Way and Wherryman's Way footpaths between Yarmout and Berney Arms. Access to the mill is prohibited and a fence blocks access due to the unsafe state the structure is in. References
Locksbrook Cemetery

Locksbrook Cemetery is a municipal cemetery located in Lower Weston, Bath, England. It was opened in 1864 as Walcot Cemetery, and occupies 12 acres (4.9 ha), originally serving the parishes of Walcot, Weston and St Saviour's. The cemetery was closed for general use in 1937 with over 30,000 interments there, though additional burials in existing graves continue. The majority of the cemetery was for about 29,500 burials from Walcot parish, with the north of the cemetery for Weston and St Saviour parishes. Nowadays it is designated as a 'Nature Conservation Site' by Bath and North East Somerset council, its owners. The cemetery has several unusual species of tree including Phillyrea latifolia, Sequoiadendron giganteum, Ailanthus altissima, Thuja plicata and Japanese Cherry. Listed structures There are five Grade II listed structures in the cemetery: Gothic entrance Lodge Main entrance gate piers and boundary walls Twin mortuary chapels (north chapel Church of England, south chapel non-conformist) with bell tower and linking arcade Bronze sarcophagus with angel by Edward Onslow Ford Cross of Sacrifice, amongst World War I graves Military graves A total of 122 military graves in the cemetery are in the care of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, 90 of which are from World War I, 44 forming a war graves plot (mainly hospital deaths, many from the nearby Bath War Hospital), and 32 from World War II whose graves are dispersed around the cemetery.

Locksmith's House

The Locksmith's House (formerly Willenhall Lock Museum) is a museum in Willenhall, England. The premises, on New Road, consist of a house and backyard workshops, typical of the many family run lock making businesses which once thrived in the town. Background The house itself was built in 1840, but the period interiors date to 1904, when the Hodson lock making family first lived there. Lock making skills are demonstrated by volunteers using original tools and equipment, such as the floor press and belt driven machinery. The Lock Museum was opened to the public in 1987. Since 2003, it has been owned and managed by the Black Country Living Museum. The buildings The house and its adjoining workshops and outbuildings were awarded Grade II listed status by English Heritage in 1984 and 1986. The listed structures include the two storey workshop on the East side of the yard plus the single storey workshop (originally a stamping shop) on the West side of the yard, directly adjoining the back of the house. Richard Hodson & Sons The business of Richard Hodson & Sons was established in 1792, according to the firm's letterhead. In 1893, it was taken on by John Hodson, who later passed it to his son Edgar. The Hodsons specialised in bar padlocks and also in lighter locks - these locks would have been used to secure cargo on a lighter. Lock parts were manufactured and assembled in the two storey workshop behind the house. Completed orders would have been brought into the yard and loaded into carts. From here they could have been sent all over the world, by rail or via the extensive Midlands canal network and on to coastal ports. Hodson locks were certainly exported to South America and beyond. The Drapers' Shop From the 1920s, the front room of the Locksmith's House was run as a drapers' shop by two of Edgar Hodson's sisters, Edith and Flora. The Hodson Shop operated until 1971, and the unsold stock forms a rich resource on working class costume, now in the care of Walsall Museum. The Lock Gallery There is a wide variety of locks and keys on display in the gallery, many of which were made in Willenhall.

Lockwood Reservoir

Lockwood Reservoir is located in Walthamstow in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. It is one of the ten Walthamstow Reservoirs, which are part of the Lee Valley Reservoir Chain. The reservoirs supply drinking water to London and are owned by Thames Water. Ecology The reservoir is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). History In 1852, the East London Waterworks Company (ELWC) was granted permission to develop land at Walthamstow for reservoirs and by 1863, the first stage of the reservoirs’ development was completed with the construction of Reservoir Nos. 1, 2 and 3. In 1897, Lockwood was the last reservoir to be created and also the largest – covering 30 hectares and excavated to a depth of around 8 metres. Named after one of the ELWC’s directors, it was a major engineering feat for its day - requiring a huge labour force of 1,250 men. Unlike the first reservoirs, which were dug mainly by hand, Lockwood was constructed with plenty of steam-powered pumps, engines and cranes - as well as a team of 50 horses! The ELWC was taken over by the Metropolitan Water Board in 1904. See also London water supply infrastructure List of Sites of Special Scientific Interest in London References
Lodge Farm Park

Lodge Farm Park is a public park in Gidea Park in the London Borough of Havering, United Kingdom. It is one of a series of parks which stretch northwards from the railway line between Romford and Gidea Park. The southern entrance to Lodge Farm Park is in Carlton Road (which runs parallel to the railway line) and the northern entrance is on Main Road (formerly called Hare Street) opposite to Raphael Park. The park is home to Romford Bowls Club. There was a temporary miniature railway (7 1/4" gauge) provided by Havering Miniature Railway Club in 2015 and a proposal has been submitted to Havering council for a permanent railway. As of early 2017 the construction of the railway has seen a new station called Black's Brook created in the picnic area. The railings surrounding the platform were donated by Costains and are reclaimed from Shenfield Station. References External links Lodge Farm Park page at havering.gov.uk

Logic Lane covered bridge

The Logic Lane covered bridge is a small covered bridge at the High Street end of Logic Lane, within University College, Oxford, England. The bridge was designed by the Oxford architect Harry Wilkinson Moore (1850–1915) and was completed in 1904. It links the older Radcliffe Quad buildings with the newer Durham Buildings, built in 1903. Oxford City Council was against the scheme, since Logic Lane was officially a bridleway, but the court judged in favour of the College—so the bridge was built.

Îles Farne

Les Îles Farne (en anglais : Farne Islands) sont un archipel de 15 à 20 îles (selon la hauteur de la marée) situé au large du Northumberland, en Angleterre. Histoire Ermitages et monastères Les premiers habitants connus des îles Farne sont des Culdees, dont certains liés à l’abbaye de Lindisfarne, dans la tradition celtique des ermitages insulaires d’Angleterre, d'Irlande et d'Écosse. En 651, s’y installent Saint Aidan puis Saint Cuthbert qui y meurt en 687. Parmi d'autres actes, Saint Cuthbert édicte en 676 des lois de protection des eiders et d'autres oiseaux de mer nichant sur les îles, considérées comme les premières lois de protection des oiseaux au monde. Une cellule monastique de deux à six moines bénédictins s’établit sur les îles vers 1255, accueillant notamment Barthélemy de Farne, jusqu’à sa suppression en 1536 dans le cadre de la dissolution des monastères par le roi Henri VIII. Grace Darling Les îles Farne sont associées à l'histoire de Grace Darling, fille du gardien de l'un des phares de l'archipel. Le 7 septembre 1838, à l'âge de 22 ans, elle aide son père à sauver neuf personnes lors du naufrage du Forfarshire. L'histoire de ce sauvetage a fait de Grace Darling une héroïne du folklore britannique. Aujourd'hui Les îles n'ont pas de population permanente, les seuls résidents étant les gardiens de la réserve du National Trust. Des phares y ont été érigés. Deux sont encore en activité, le troisième est en ruine Faune Les îles Farne constituent un habitat important pour la faune, en même temps qu’elles sont très visitées par des excursions en bateau au départ de Seahouses. Les visiteurs peuvent être débarqués sur trois îles, l’accès aux autres étant interdit à des fins de protection. À la saison des nids, les nombreux macareux sont très populaires auprès des visiteurs. Une grande colonie de sternes arctiques niche près de l’itinéraire de visite et ces oiseaux attaquent les visiteurs, qui sont vivement invités à se couvrir la tête. Les visiteurs peuvent également approcher de très près les petits pingouins, les guillemots de Troïl, les grands cormorans, les cormorans huppés et les mouettes tridactyles. Un total de 290 espèces d'oiseaux ont été enregistrées sur les îles, y compris, dans les années 1760, un spécimen de l’espèce désormais éteinte du Grand Pingouin. Certaines îles accueillent également une population de lapins, réintroduits comme source de viande après la disparition des colonies initiales. Lapins et macareux sont en concurrence pour les mêmes terriers, mais les macareux sont assez agressifs pour expulser les lapins déjà installés, se servant de leur gros bec pour leur infliger de douloureuses morsures. Les îles abritent également une colonie d'environ 6 000 phoques gris, mettant bas plusieurs centaines de jeunes chaque année entre septembre et novembre.

Farne-eilanden

De Farne-eilanden (Engels: Farne Isles, ook de Farnes) is een groep Engelse eilanden buiten de kust van Northumberland. Er zijn 15 tot 28 eilanden, afhankelijk van de getijden. Ze liggen op 2,5 tot 7,5 km van het vasteland. Geografie De Farne-eilanden worden onderverdeeld in twee groepen: de binnenste en de buitenste eilandengroep. De belangrijkste eilanden van de binnenste groep, die het dichtst bij het vasteland ligt, zijn Inner Farne, Knoxes Reef en de East en West Wideopens. Bij laagtij vormen de vier eilandjes samen één groot eiland. Ook Megstone wordt tot de binnenste eilandengroep gerekend, maar ook bij laagtij is dit nog steeds een apart eiland. Op Inner Farne ligt het hoogste punt van de eilandengroep, op 19 meter boven zeeniveau. De belangrijkste eilanden in de buitenste eilandengroep zijn Staple Island, Brownsman, North en South Wamses, Big Harcar en Longstone. De binnenste en buitenste eilanden worden van elkaar gescheiden door Staple Sound. Geschiedenis De vroegst bekende bewoners waren verschillende Culdees, die de oude Keltische traditie van eilandkluizenarij volgden. De eerste bij naam bekende bezoeker was de H. Aidan, gevolgd door de H. Cuthbertus. Deze werd later bisschop van Lindisfarne, maar keerde nadien terug naar de eenzaamheid van de eilanden en stierf er ook in 687. Cuthbertus voerde al in 676 bijzondere wetten in om de eidereenden te beschermen. Vogels Ook tegenwoordig worden de Farne-eilanden nog gekenmerkt door de zeldzame vogels die hier broeden. De noordse stern en de visdief komen er het meest voor. Tussen de rotsen broeden verder aalscholvers, de noordse stormvogel, de zeekoet, de gewone alk en de drieteenmeeuw. Meer landinwaarts leven papegaaiduikers en eidereenden. Vuurtorens Verder staan de Farne-eilanden bekend om de oude vuurtorens die men daar aantreft. De vuurtoren van Inner Farne stamt uit 1809 (voor die tijd werd op de toren van het Prior Castle uit 1370 bij noodweer een vuur ontstoken). Ook Longstone heeft een karakteristieke, rood met witte vuurtoren. Volgens een oud verhaal zou Grace Darling, de dochter van de vuurtorenwachter van Longstone, in 1838 tijdens hevig noodweer samen met haar vader naar Harcar zijn geroeid om daar 15 mannen te redden van een schip dat op het punt stond te zinken. Op Staple Island en Brownstone zijn de vuurtorens niet meer in gebruik, wel staan daar nog ruïnes van vuurtorens uit vroeger tijd.
Фарн (острова)

Фарн (Фарне, англ. Farne Islands) — архипелаг у берегов Нортумберленда. Это — небольшая группа островов площадью 0,967 км², расположенных всего в 2,5-7 км от побережья графства Нортумберленд. Количество островов, в с зависимости от состояния прилива и отлива, колеблется от 15 до свыше 20. Архипелаг можно разделить на внутреннюю и внешнюю группы по обе стороны сравнительно широкого пролива Степл. Берега скалисты и обрывисты, но высшая точка островов расположена на высоте около 19 м над уровнем моря. В настоящее время острова необитаемы. Но на архипелаге имеются остатки человеческой деятельности. Известно, что некоторое время на островах проживал Святой Кутберт Линдисфарнский, а после и его ученик — Этильвальд. На острове имеются маяки, Лонгстонский и Фарнский, построенные в начале XIX века. Они находятся под опекой Trinity House. Острова — туристический аттракцион. На некоторые острова доступ туристам запрещён или требуется особое разрешение. На других посетители могут наблюдать колонии атлантических морских птиц, которые массово гнездуются недалеко от человеческих поселений: обыкновенная гага, моевка, длинноклювая кайра, тупики и другие. Среди некоторых видов пернатых учёные даже проводят переписи. Например, раз в 5 лет британский Национальный фонд подсчитывает количество тупиков на островах Фарн. Также острова Фарн известны несколькими громкими крушениями кораблей. См. также Степл Список островов Англии Примечания

London Academy

London Academy (formerly Edgware School) is a mixed all-through school and sixth form for pupils ages 4 to 18. It is located in Edgware in the London Borough of Barnet, England. History Formerly "Edgware School", it opened as the London Academy on 1 September 2004. The London Academy was one of 5 DfES Academies opened in 2004. Academies are all-ability schools established with sponsorship from business, faith or voluntary groups. The first 3 opened in 2002, and 9 more in 2003. Sponsorship of £1.5 million was provided by the chairman of a venture capital company, Peter Shalson. Money was also raised by resale of part of the old site. On 18 May 2006, pupil Kiyan Prince was stabbed and killed outside of the school gates following an altercation with a fellow student. The process of finalising a new school building with full occupancy was completed on schedule in September 2006. However, the toilets are regularly flooded and some of the facilities do not work. The school experienced rapidly rising grades in the years after conversion to an academy: In 2005 the school achieved the best results ever with 49% A*-C grades at GCSE. In 2006 this rose to 56% and 78% in 2008. In 2016, construction started for a new primary school on-site, which made it a 4-18 all-through school. London Academy was graded as good in the latest Ofsted report published on 6 June 2018.

London Academy of Excellence

The London Academy of Excellence, Stratford (LAE) is a selective free school sixth form school located in the Stratford area of the London Borough of Newham, England. It has approximately 500 pupils and 32 teachers. Background The school first opened in 2012 in collaboration with seven independent schools - Brighton College, Caterham School, Eton College, City of London School, Forest School, Highgate School and University College School, six of which continue to support the school as 'partner schools'. Its relationship with Eton College has led to the school being dubbed 'the Eton of the East End' by the national media.LAE is a flagship of the government's academies programme. It was visited by Michael Gove in February 2014, who called it a "superb new free school". As well as state funding, the school raises funds from corporate and other philanthropic donors in order to offer sports and recreation activities, clubs, societies, a lecture programme and an outreach program to complement academic studies. The school offers an academic A-Level curriculum designed to facilitate student's entry on to competitive degree courses at leading universities. Conditional offers of places are made on the basis of student's predicted GCSE results. In 2025, the school received over 7,000 initial applications for 250 available places. The LAE will increase the number of places available following relocation to its new buildings in 2026. In 2015, the Sunday Times awarded the school with the title of 'The Sunday Times Sixth-form College of The Year'. It was the first free school to be named the best sixth form in the country". In June 2022 the school was shortlisted in the top 10 schools for the World's Best School Prize in the category of 'Supporting Healthy Living' in recognition of the wellbeing offer in the school. The school is also the only state-funded school in the world so far admitted to the World Leading Schools Association. Results The school was inspected in October 2017 and was awarded “outstanding” in all areas. The school's "outstanding" judgement was confirmed by Ofsted in March 2024. In 2024, the LAE achieved record results with 73% of all A-Levels grades A*/A, and 96% A*-B. The LAE also ranked among the top five state schools in England for A level outcomes. Controversies In 2022 a small group of LAE alumni working with Cage UK, MEND and Azad Ali listed a number of allegations against the school, that the school released a statement refuting. In March 2022 the school appointed an external investigator to investigate the complaint, concluding that there is no evidence that the LAE or any of its staff, either past or serving, discriminated against Muslim students and finds that the School’s Governing Board acted appropriately and transparently in its decision to discontinue multi-faith facilities at LAE in September 2015. Independent from the campaign the school has facilitated the use of on-site space for students wishing to pray. References
