Rules

Rules est un restaurant londonien situé d'abord sur Maiden Lane, dans le quartier de Covent Garden. Fondé en 1798, il se targue d'être le plus ancien de la capitale anglaise. Histoire Ouvert en 1798 par Thomas Rule comme bar à huitres, il sert ensuite de la cuisine anglaise traditionnelle. Spécialisé dans le gibier, il s'approvisionne sur son domaine The Lartington Estate situé dans les High Pennines au centre de l'Angleterre. Le restaurant reste dans la famille Rule jusqu'à la Première Guerre mondiale, lorsque Charles Rule échange son affaire avec Thomas Bell. La fille de Bell vend le restaurant à John Mayhew en 1984 (qui possède toujours le restaurant). Des efforts ont été faits pour préserver les aspects originaux de la partie principale du restaurant et de son bar à cocktails. Les murs sont décorés de caricatures, de peintures à l'huile et de dessins rassemblés tout au long de son histoire. Un certain nombre de ces œuvres d'art ont trait à l'histoire du théâtre. En effet, les comédiens Henry Irving et Laurence Olivier et d'autres l'ont fréquenté. Le restaurant a été décrit dans des nouvelles de Graham Greene, Dick Francis et Evelyn Waugh. Sir John Betjeman s'est plaint, avec succès, au Greater London Council en 1971 quand le restaurant a été menacé de démolition.

Runcorn Railway Bridge

Die Runcorn Railway Bridge, auch Britannia Bridge oder örtlich Queen Ethelfleda Viaduct, führt die Liverpool-Zweigstrecke der West Coast Main Line über den Mersey und den neben ihm verlaufenden Manchester Ship Canal. Sie steht in der englischen Unitary Authority Borough of Halton zwischen den Orten Runcorn und Widnes an der Runcorn Gap genannten Engstelle des Flusses, bevor er in einem Ästuar an Liverpool vorbei in die Irische See mündet. Sie ist die letzte Brücke über den Mersey, da es in Liverpool zwar Tunnel, aber keine Brücken gibt. Etwa 30 m östlich von ihr steht die Silver Jubilee Bridge, eine 1961 eröffnete Fachwerk-Bogenbrücke für den Straßenverkehr. Beschreibung Die von William Baker entworfene und zwischen 1863 und 1868 erbaute zweigleisige Eisenbahnbrücke zählt zu den ältesten Gitterträgerbrücken, die noch im regelmäßigen Betrieb stehen. Die Hauptbrücke hat drei jeweils 93 m weite Öffnungen mit 8,5 m hohen, ursprünglich schmiedeeisernen Gitterträgern. Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts wurde das Schmiedeeisen durch Stahl ersetzt. Jeder Träger wiegt 711 Tonnen. Die Träger wurden nicht, wie auch damals schon üblich, an Land gefertigt, sondern Latte für Latte auf der Baustelle mit 48.115 Nieten zusammengefügt. Die Brücke wird von vier Pfeilern aus Sandstein getragen. Die äußeren Pfeiler sind als zinnenbewehrte Burgportale gestaltet. Die Brücke hatte eine 600 kg schwere Nebelglocke zur Warnung der Schifffahrt, die aber bei der Restaurierung in den 2010er Jahren abgenommen wurde. Die Admiralty verlangte einst eine Durchfahrtshöhe von 22,8 m (75 ft) über MHW (bei einem Tidenhub von 6 m). Das erforderte lange Rampenbrücken. Das 1175 m lange Viadukt auf der Nordseite hat 16 Rundbögen, dem nach einem kurzen Damm ein weiteres Viadukt mit 49 Rundbögen folgt. An der Südseite steht ein 540 m langes Viadukt mit 33 Rundbögen. Alle Rundbögen der Viadukte bestehen aus Ziegelmauerwerk. Die Überlieferung will es, dass Æthelflæd, Königin von Mercia, im Jahr 915 am Südufer ein Fort anlegen ließ, was in der Benennung der Brücke zum Ausdruck kommt. Die Brücke steht als Grade-II*-Bauwerk unter Denkmalschutz. Weblinks Stuart Marsh: Restoration work on the Runcorn railway bridge auf railengineer.co.uk Einzelnachweise
Runshaw Hall

Runshaw Hall is a grade II listed 19th-century country house in Runshaw Hall Lane, Euxton, Chorley, Lancashire, England, which has been converted into apartments. It is surrounded by parkland containing a pond and woodland. The hall is an italianate rectangular two-storey building built of red brick with yellow stone dressing and a hipped slate roof. There are 6 bays along the longer side and 3 along the shorter. In earlier times a previous property belonged successively to the Lancasters of Rainhill and the Farnworth family, who vacated the hall c.1747 on the death of Edward Farnworth. The current house was built in 1862 and was acquired by William Bretherton. On his death in 1890 it passed to his second son Norris Bretherton (1860–1924). Before and after the Second World War it was a run by the Brothers of Charity as a Residential Home for mentally challenged young men, after which it served as a restaurant in the 1970s. After a fire it was converted to an apartment complex. References
Runwell Hospital

Runwell Hospital was a hospital in the Chelmsford district of Essex. It was managed by the South Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust. History Following the ending of contracts accommodating patients at the Essex County Council's Brentwood Mental Hospital, joint facilities were developed between East Ham and Southend-on-Sea boroughs. A site was chosen in Runwell at Runwell Hall Farm, to the north of the town of Wickford and the firm of Elcock and Sutcliffe were chosen as architects to the site, the former having previously designed the new Bethlem Royal Hospital at Monks Orchard. The foundation stone was laid by Laurence Brock in June 1934 and the hospital was officially opened by Sir Kingsley Wood, Minister of Health, as Runwell Mental Hospital in June 1937. The chapel, dedicated to St. Luke, was placed in a prominent position. The hospital was bombed by the German Luftwaffe during the Second World War; there was extensive damage including a number of large craters but no injuries to staff. The hospital joined the National Health Service in 1948 and Professor John Corsellis led to the development of a "brain bank", using samples taken from patients not just from the hospital but from elsewhere in the United Kingdom. It became Runwell Hospital in 1955. Following the introduction of Care in the Community in the early 1980s, the hospital went into a period of decline and eventually closed in August 2010. Proposals to develop the site initially included provision for a large prison but this proposal was withdrawn following strong local opposition. The site has since been developed for residential use by Countryside Properties and the area is now known as St Luke's Park. References External links Runwell Hospital History Beyond the Point

Rushton Hall

Rushton Hall är ett stately home som ligger i Rushton i North Northamptonshire, Northamptonshire i England. Runt byggnaden finns det flera terrassträdgårdar som designades av Thomas Hayton Mawson mellan 1905 och 1909. Delar av byggnaden är daterad till 1400- och 1500-talen, däribland fåfängan Rushton Triangular Lodge som Thomas Tresham lät bygga men som idag ägs av English Heritage och är öppen för allmänheten. Totalt är marken runt byggnaden 92 hektar och floden Ise flyter söder om Rushton Hall. Rushton Hall ägdes av den katolska släkten Tresham från 1438, när Sir John Tresham köpte den. Rushton Hall togs senare över av sir Thomas Tresham (1500–1559), vars sonson sir Thomas Tresham (1534–1605) år 1592 lät bygga Rushton Triangular Lodge på sina ägor. Dennes son, Francis Tresham, var en av konspiratörerna som medverkade i krutkonspirationen, som gick om stöpet den 5 november 1605. Efter Francis Treshams död i Towern den 23 december 1605 gick ägarskapet för Rushton Hall över till hans bror Lewis. Rushton Hall såldes år 1619 till Sir William Cockayne innan det 1828 köptes av William Williams Hope, släkting till Thomas Hope. Efter Hopes död 1854 såldes Rushton Hall till Clara Thornhill (senare Clarke-Thornhill), som var god vän med författaren Charles Dickens; den fiktiva byggnaden Haversham Hall i Dickens Lysande utsikter är baserad på Rushton Hall. Släkten Clarke-Thornhills ägde byggnaden fram till 1934. 1957 togs Rushton Hall över av Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) innan det 2003 såldes till det privat ägda bolaget H I Limited. För närvarande är Rushton Hall ett lyxhotell. Referenser Den här artikeln är helt eller delvis baserad på material från engelskspråkiga Wikipedia, Rushton Hall, 21 april 2013. Noter
Ruskin Park

Ruskin Park is a park in the London Borough of Lambeth, London, England, close to Camberwell, Loughborough Junction and Herne Hill. History At the start of the 20th century local residents successfully campaigned for a new public park on 24 acres of land on Denmark Hill, and it opened to the public on 2 February 1907. The park was laid out by the notable parks designer Lt-Col J. J. Sexby. Sexby's design included an Old English Garden, an oval duck pond, a bandstand and a bowling green. The bowling green has been replaced by a garden, but the other features remain. In 1910 Ruskin Park was enlarged by the addition of a further 12 acres (5 ha) to the south west. The existing houses on the site were demolished when the park was created. One of these was Dane House, where, in 1842, Felix Mendelssohn composed Spring Song. There is a sundial in the park commemorating Mendelssohn's visit. The former entrance porch to one of the demolished houses remains in the park, and is Grade II listed. The park is named after John Ruskin (1819–1900), a poet, writer and a major champion of diverse green spaces as well as of the Arts and Crafts movement, who lived nearby from 1823 to 1871. He gives his name equally to a university, college, museum and square. During World War I, recruits of the 21st Battalion, London Regiment (First Surrey Rifles) based at nearby Flodden Road in Camberwell, trained in the park. In 1967, the rock band Pink Floyd used Ruskin Park for their first official photoshoot. Facilities and features It has a playground, nature area, tennis court, basketball court, football and cricket pitches, and pond. There is a mural of a common toad on a wall in the park by street artist ATM, which was commissioned by the charity Froglife. Ruskin Park is open from 7.00am to 15 minutes before sunset every day.

Ruskin High School, Crewe

Ruskin Community High School is a coeducational comprehensive secondary school in Crewe, Cheshire, England, for pupils aged 11 to 16 years. History The school was opened in 1902 as Crewe County Secondary School in rooms at the then Technical College in Flag Lane, and moved to the new Ruskin Road building in 1909. The name changed to Crewe County Grammar School after the Education Act 1944. The last CCGS reunion was held in 2012 for pupils who entered the school in 1971 or 1972. When secondary education in Crewe was reorganised the school became fully comprehensive as the Ruskin County High School in 1978. It achieved specialist school status in 2002 after an application to the Specialist Schools Trust and fund-raising. Recent developments The school specialises in sport, and briefly modern foreign languages. The refurbished sports hall was opened in October 2005, whilst a new dining hall was completed in spring 2006. When the school was awarded Sports College Status, five floodlit tennis courts were built at a cost of almost £250,000. Ruskin celebrated its centenary year on the Ruskin Road site in 2009. The celebrations officially began on Friday, 9 January 2009, with an assembly involving pupils and staff, ex-staff, ex-pupils and government officials. Assembly was followed by a tree planting service and concluded with a memorial service, during which a bench was dedicated to each of the three pupils who lost their lives while pupils at the school. Ruskin also built a Dance and Drama studio as an extension to the sports hall and it has been opened since February 2025.
