The Novelty Theatre (later renamed the Great Queen Street Theatre from 1900 to 1907, and the Kingsway Theatre from 1907 to 1941) was a London theatre. It opened in 1882 at No 8 Great Queen Street. The theatre was accessed from Little Queen Street until 1905 and from the new Kingsway road from 1905 onwards. It hosted the London premiere of A Doll's House in 1889. The theatre closed in 1941, was heavily damaged in the Blitz and was demolished in 1959. History The first theatre on the site was built to designs by Thomas Verity with decorations by E. W. Bradwell, and opened on 9 December 1882. Its first show was the comic opera Melita or the Parsee's Daughter, composed by Henry Pontet, with a libretto by Juba Kennerley. It hosted, among other notable works, a revival of Les Cloches de Corneville and Ascot, by Percy Fendall, in 1883. Edward Solomon and James Mortimer's Polly or The Pet of the Regiment played at the theatre in 1884.

The Russian National Opera Company produced The Demon at the Novelty in 1888, and the theatre hosted the London premiere of Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House in 1889. In August 1896, Wilfred Moritz Franks accidentally stabbed Temple E. Crozier fatally onstage during a performance of Frank Harvey's melodrama, Sins of the Night. The Merchant of Venice was presented at the theatre in 1897. Its interior was rebuilt in 1898–1900 and 1907, reopening after the two reconstructions as the Great Queen Street Theatre (1900–1907) and Kingsway Theatre (1907–1941) respectively. From 1900 to 1907, W. S. Penley managed the theatre, producing and starring in A Little Ray of Sunshine by Mark Ambient and revivals of The Private Secretary and Charley's Aunt in 1900. It also featured the 1915 premiere of Pearn and Elgar's The Starlight Express and the London premiere of the musical Oh, Boy! in 1919, which ran for 167 performances. In 1934 Winifred Carter's historical play The Queen Who Kept Her Head appeared at the theatre. In 1939 it hosted the premiere of Rutland Boughton's third symphony and finally closed on 11 May 1941. It was heavily bomb-damaged during the Blitz and remained closed until its demolition in 1959. Its site is now occupied by an extension of Newton Street into Great Queen Street, and an office block.

Noyna Hill

Noyna Hill (sometimes called Noyna or Noyna Rock/s) is a hill in the Pennine range in Pendle, Lancashire, England. It is a mile east of Foulridge and it is possible to see other local towns such as Colne, Nelson, Trawden, Barnoldswick and Earby. On a clear day most of Lancashire and the Yorkshire Dales are visible from here. There are traces of Iron Age walling at the foot of the hill. Although the prominence is not that great because of the close proximity of other hills, it is well known in the area for its distinctive, wide, but not particularly high, rocky outcrop. The summit of the hill is approximately 300 metres (980 ft) above sea level. The hill is on farmland, but public footpaths allow access.

Театр Ноэла Кауарда

Театр Ноэла Кауарда (англ. Noël Coward Theatre) — театр в Вест-Энде, находящийся на улице Сент-Мартинс Лейн в Вестминстере, западной исторической части Лондона. В нём 872 места на четырёх уровнях. Театр был открыт 12 марта 1903 года актёром Чарльзом Уиндемом, рядом с другим его театром, который был открыт четырьмя годами ранее, и который носит его имя. Задумав построить собственный театр, Уиндем был вынужден купить больший участок земли, чем был ему необходим. На свободной земле он принял решение построить ещё один театр. Здание театра спроектировал архитектор Уильям Спрэг, для которого он стал уже тринадцатым спроектированным им театром. Первоначально театр никакого названия не имел и неформально назывался просто «новый театр». Вскоре «Новый Театр» стало его официальным названием. В 1973 году театр был переименован в честь Бронсона Элбери — бывшего управляющего директора Нового Театра. В 2005 году театр Элбери был приобретен компанией «Театры Дельфонта Макинтоша», которая в 2006 году сменила его название на Театр Ноэла Кауарда в честь драматурга и актёра Сэра Ноэла Пирса Кауарда. Здание театра является памятником архитектуры Соединённого Королевства и находится под защитой государства. Примечания Комментарии Источники
Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre

The Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre (NOC) is an orthopaedic hospital, with strong affiliations to the University of Oxford. It provides routine and specialist orthopaedic surgery, plastic surgery and rheumatology services to the people of Oxfordshire. Specialist services, such as the treatment of osteomyelitis and bone tumours, and the rehabilitation of those with limb amputation, congenital deficiency and neurological disabilities, are provided for patients from across the UK and abroad. It is managed by the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. History Funded by a donation from Mrs. Hannah Wingfield, the hospital began work as the Wingfield Convalescent Centre in 1872. During the First World War, it was a military hospital and was expanded by building a fresh air annexe of wooden buildings. By 1929, the Wingfield Morris Hospital badly needed rebuilding and Lord Nuffield, then Sir William Morris, donated £70,000 to build new nurses' quarters, seven new wards and a massage department. In recognition of Morris' contribution, the hospital became the Wingfield-Morris Orthopaedic Hospital in 1930. In 1936, Lord Nuffield announced a further gift to Oxford University Medical School which created five clinical chairs, and Professor Gathorne Robert Girdlestone became the first Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery in 1937. During the Second World War the hospital was controlled by the War Office. In 1948, it was designated as a regional orthopaedic centre and in 1950 it was renamed the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre. Thanks among others to the appointments in 1949, of Josep Trueta and in 1966, of Robert Duthie, the centre established its prestige and international reputation. Duthie championed its independence and on 1 April 1991 the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre became an NHS Trust hospital. Research The Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is a member of the Oxford Research and Development Consortium. The research activities within the consortium are divided into fifteen collaborative research groups (CRGs). The NOC belongs to the musculo-skeletal group, which covers research activities in the fields of orthopaedics, rheumatology, metabolic medicine, neurological and functional rehabilitation and physiotherapy and have close links and collaboration with the University of Oxford and Oxford Brookes University.

Nuneaton Museum & Art Gallery

Nuneaton Museum & Art Gallery is set in the grounds of Riversley Park, Nuneaton, England, and has three galleries which house regularly changing temporary and touring exhibitions. There is a gallery dedicated to the writer George Eliot, together with two others focusing on local history and fine art. There is a small display of objects which belonged to the comedian Larry Grayson. The museum was paid for as a gift to Nuneaton from Edward Ferdinand Melly. The son of Charles Pierre Melly, Edward Melly was born on 7 July 1857, at Riversley, the family's house in Mossley Hill, Liverpool. He moved to Nuneaton to work as Manager of the Griff Colliery Company. In 1913 he offered to provide the money to build a museum and gallery in Riversley Park which he had already gifted to the town and had plans drawn up. The Museum & Art Gallery opened on Sunday, 1 April 1917. In 1941 a bombing raid resulted in Melly's death and significant damage to the building. Since many records were lost, knowledge of the origins of the museum's collection is now sometimes lacking. The gallery was not fully reopened until 1960. References

Nutbourne Windmill

Nutbourne Windmill is a tower mill at Nutbourne, Sussex, England which has been converted to retail use. History Nutbourne Windmill was built in 1854. It had a short working life, stopping c.1894. The mill gradually became derelict, although the cap was still on the mill during the Second World War. At some point, the tail beam failed, and the windshaft was left hanging down vertically at the top of the tower, supported by the stocks alone. The mill tower now serves as a tasting room and shop for Nutbourne vineyards. Description Nutbourne Windmill is a five-storey brick and stone tower mill with a stage at first floor level. The mill had a beehive cap, winded by a fantail and is thought to have had four Spring sails. The mill drove two pairs of underdrift millstones.
