12 Arnold Grove

12 Arnold Grove is een huis in Liverpool. Hier woonde de Beatles-gitarist George Harrison gedurende zijn kindertijd tot 1950. Het is een rijtjeshuis in een doodlopende straat in de wijk Wavertree. Harrison en zijn zus en broers woonden hier sinds hun geboorte. Op 2 januari 1950 vertrok de familie naar een huis in de wijk Speke. Het huis is een toeristische trekpleister dat zomers tot honderd bezoekers per dag aantrekt. Anders dan 251 Menlove Avenue en 20 Forthlin Road waar John Lennon en Paul McCartney opgroeiden, is het huis niet publiek toegankelijk. In 1997 bracht Harrison een album uit met de titel 12 Arnold Grove.

12 Arnold Grove

12 Arnold Grove é o local de nascimento e lar da infância do ex-Beatle George Harrison. Localizada em Wavertree, Liverpool, perto da Torre do Relógio de Picton, é uma pequena terraced house em um beco sem saída, com um pequeno beco nos fundos. Os pais de Harrison, Harold e Louise, mudaram-se para a casa em 1931 após o casamento. O aluguel era de dez xelins por semana. Aqui nasceram seus quatro filhos: Louise (16 de agosto de 1931 – 29 de janeiro de 2023), Harry (20 de julho de 1934-), Peter (20 de julho de 1940 – 1 de junho de 2007) e George (25 de fevereiro de 1943 – 29 de novembro de 2001). Harrison viveu na propriedade por sete anos, e ao final desse período sua família já estava morando lá há quase 20 anos. Eles finalmente se mudaram para 25 Upton Green, no distrito de Speke, em Liverpool, em 1950. Seu irmão mais velho, Harry, relembrou: "Nossa pequena casa tinha apenas dois cômodos em cima e dois cômodos em baixo, mas, exceto por um curto período em que nosso pai estava no mar, sempre conhecemos o conforto e a segurança de uma vida familiar muito unida." Harrison lembrou que o único aquecimento era uma única lareira a carvão, e a casa era tão fria no inverno que ele e seus irmãos temiam levantar de manhã porque estava um frio congelante e eles tinham que usar o banheiro externo. A casa tinha cômodos minúsculos – apenas dez pés por dez (cerca de 9 m2) – e um pequeno fogão de ferro na sala dos fundos, que era usado como cozinha. Ao descrever o jardim dos fundos, Harrison escreveu que ele tinha "um canteiro de flores de um pé de largura, um banheiro, uma lata de lixo fixada na parede dos fundos (e) um pequeno galinheiro onde criávamos galos". Harrison disse uma vez sobre a casa: "Tente imaginar a alma entrando no útero de uma mulher que vive em 12 Arnold Grove, Wavertree, Liverpool 15. Havia todos os balões de barragem e os alemães bombardeando Liverpool. Tudo isso estava acontecendo. Sentei-me do lado de fora da casa alguns anos atrás, imaginando 1943, atravessando o mundo espiritual, o nível astral, voltando para um corpo naquela casa. Isso é realmente estranho quando você considera o planeta inteiro, todos os planetas que podem existir em um nível espiritual. Como eu entro naquela família, naquela casa naquela época, e quem sou eu afinal?". Em fevereiro de 2024, foi anunciado que a casa receberia uma placa azul, uma das primeiras localizadas fora de Londres. Em 24 de maio de 2024, a placa azul foi adicionada.

Według strony internetowej klasztoru zazwyczaj w Amaravati przebywa pomiędzy piętnastoma a dwudziestoma pięcioma mnichami i nowicjuszami, którzy zgodnie z regułami Dhammy i Winaji prowadzą żebracze, kontemplacyjne życie w celibacie tworząc kontynuację społeczności założonej ponad dwa tysiące lat temu przez Buddę. Do Sanghi należą również anagarika, czyli postulanci żyjący w oparciu o 8 buddyjskich wskazań, którzy po okresie jednego, lub dwóch lat mogą zostać przyjęci do grona nowicjuszy. Oprócz tego Amaravati utrzymuje również Sanghę Siladhara, czyli mniszek przestrzegających Dziesięć Wskazań.

142 Foregate Street, Chester

142 Foregate Street is a building on the south side of Foregate Street, Chester, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building. History It was built in 1884 for Chester City Council as a police station for the Cheshire County Constabulary, and was designed by the local architect John Douglas. It was used as the police headquarters until 1967 when a new building for the purpose was constructed on Nuns Road next to the Roodee. In the early 2000s it was being used as an occupational health unit for Cheshire County Council. Architecture The building is constructed in red Ruabon brick with stone bands and terracotta and stone dressings, and a grey slate roof. It has three storeys plus an attic. On the ground floor two steps lead to an arched doorway. To the left of this are three arched sash windows and to the right is a casement window. The middle and top storeys contain six two-light mullioned and transomed windows in pairs. The gable is stepped and contains a row of six windows, over which are two more windows. Between these is the date 1884 in brick moulding. In the apex of the gable is the cartouche of the police force. Douglas' biographer Edward Hubbard considered that the frontage of this building was "more specifically Flemish in design than any other of Douglas' buildings".

15 Firwood Fold

15 Firwood Fold is a 16th-century house in Bolton, Greater Manchester, England. It is a Grade II* listed building and according to local tradition is the oldest inhabited house in Bolton. It stands separate from the other houses on Firwood Fold. The house was originally built in a medieval style using the cruck construction technique, whereby A-shaped oak trusses on stone bases were covered in wattle and daub and thatch. It was later renovated and clad in stone. One of the trusses can be clearly seen in the gable end. In 1969 the hamlet of Firwood Fold was designated Bolton's first conservation area, ensuring protection of its historic character. The unified appearance of the hamlet—simple style, local stone, and modest scale—has been preserved despite centuries of change.

17 & 19 Newhall Street, Birmingham

17 & 19 Newhall Street is a red brick and architectural terracotta Grade I listed building, situated on the corner of Newhall Street and Edmund Street in the city centre of Birmingham, England. Although its official name is 17 & 19 Newhall Street, it is popularly known as The Exchange, and was previously known as the Bell Edison Telephone Building. History Opened in 1887, the building was designed by Frederick Martin of the firm Martin & Chamberlain. It was constructed to house the new Central Telephone Exchange and offices for the National Telephone Company (NTC). Birmingham's central exchange had 5,000 subscribers and was the largest of its type in the country. Originally having the postal address of 19 Newhall Street, it was known as "Telephone Buildings" within the NTC organisation but it was also popularly known as the "Bell Edison Telephone Building" – the NTC logo behind the wrought iron gates to the main entrance bears the names of Bell and Edison. The ground floor of the building was let out to shops. In 1912, the NTC was taken over by the Postmaster General and ownership of the building transferred to the GPO. Whereas Telephone House accommodated the telex automatic exchange, 19 Newhall Street held a TAS exchange which was used by the GPO to route telegrams around the UK. It also housed the Birmingham office of the Post Office Engineering Union (located on the basement floor in Edmund Street). During World War I, the building was used as the Midland headquarters of the air raid warning system. In 1936, the Central Telephone Exchange vacated the building and relocated to new premises (Telephone House) further down Newhall Street. Modern era 17 & 19 Newhall Street is now occupied by Core Marketing (a marketing and PR company), Mitchell Adam (an accountancy recruitment firm) and GBR Phoenix Beard (a firm of property consultants). The basement is occupied by a bar called Bushwackers, which has its entrance on Edmund Street. The building's full postal address is: The Exchange, 19 Newhall Street, Birmingham B3 3PJ. However, it occupies 17 & 19 Newhall Street as well as 103 Edmund Street.

Old Warehouse

Das Old Warehouse in Manchester ist ein 1830 erbautes Lagerhaus der Eisenbahngesellschaft Liverpool and Manchester Railway. Das Gebäude auf der Nordseite des Kopfbahnhofes Manchester Road Railway Station wurde in fünf Monaten zwischen April und September 1830 nach Plänen des Architekten Thomas Haigh gebaut. Die Fassaden des Lagerhauses wurden mit rotem Backstein im flämischen Verband verkleidet und mit Schieferdächern im Stil von zehn Grabendächern errichtet. Es ist drei Stockwerke hoch. Die rückseitigen Laderampen mit Niveau der Bahngleise ermöglichten ein direktes Be- und Entladen der Eisenbahnwagen. Das Erdgeschoss mit Zugang auf der Straßenseite konnte mit Karren und Fuhrwerken befahren werden. Die innere Lagerstruktur ist aus Holz und mit gusseisernen Säulen verstärkt. Die Verteilung von Waren innerhalb des dreistöckigen Lagers erfolgte ursprünglich im Handbetrieb. Ende 1832 wurden dampfbetriebene Hebezeuge installiert und 1880 durch ein elektrisch betriebenes Hydrauliksystem ersetzt. Das Gebäude wurde aufwendig restauriert und steht seit 1973 unter Denkmalschutz als stehendes Kulturdenkmal. 1975 wurde der Bahnbetrieb ganz eingestellt. Heute wird das Gebäude vom Science and Industry Museum genutzt. Einzelnachweise
1830 warehouse, Liverpool Road railway station

The 1830 warehouse, Liverpool Road, Manchester, England, is a 19th-century warehouse that forms part of the Liverpool Road railway station complex. It was built in five months between April and September 1830, "almost certainly [to the designs of] the Liverpool architect Thomas Haigh". The heritage listing report attributes the work to George Stephenson and his son, Robert. It has been listed Grade I on the National Heritage List for England since May 1973. The warehouse is of "red brick in Flemish bond, with sandstone dressings and slate roofs". It is three storeys high, though only two storeys present to the level of the railway to allow for direct loading and unloading. At the ground floor at street level, carts could also gain direct access. "The internal structure is of timber, but with cast-iron columns in the basement." The processing of goods within the warehouse was originally a manual operation but "steam-powered hoists [were] installed within a year as the manual system could not cope with the volume of goods". The steam system of 1831 was replaced with a hydraulic system between 1866 and 1880 to increase efficiency. Restoration of the warehouse was undertaken in 1992–96 by the Building Design Partnership. In 2012, the Science and Industry Museum became custodians of the warehouse. As of 2024, the museum is embarking on a phased programme of conservation work to the 1830 warehouse, having undertaken repairs to improve the structural integrity of the building and roof repairs.
