Collingwood Dock

Collingwood Dock is a dock on the River Mersey, in England, and part of the Port of Liverpool. It is situated in the northern dock system in Vauxhall, and is connected to Stanley Dock to the east and Salisbury Dock to the west. History The dock was designed by Jesse Hartley, and opened in 1848 along with four other Liverpool docks. The dock was named after Cuthbert Collingwood, 1st Baron Collingwood and was intended to handle relatively small vessels only. The Liverpool Corporation had a berth for its refuse boats in Collingwood Dock for many years. A bascule road bridge spans the passage between Collingwood and Stanley Docks. Present Collingwood Dock has been little altered since construction. The dock is part of the Stanley Dock Conservation Area and is on the route of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal extension to the Pier Head. Collingwood dock is home to the Glaciere Maritime Academy.

St Mary Bishophill Junior, York

St Mary Bishophill Junior, York is a Grade I listed parish church in the Church of England, in the Bishophill area of York. History The church dates from the 10th century with the oldest part being the tower, which reuses some Roman stones. It was heightened in the 11th century, probably before the Norman Conquest, and the battlements were added around 1411. The 11th-century nave has a 12th-century north arcade and north aisle. The chancel dates from the 13th century. The font and bells are also mediaeval. The church was restored between 1860 and 1861 by J. B. and W. Atkinson, described by the York Civic Trust as "poorly conceived". The old pews were removed, the floor was raised by 10 inches and concreted. The brick porch was removed, and the wooden window taken out. A stone porch was erected and new windows added. The flat ceilings were removed to reveal the open timber roof. The chancel was renovated by Ewan Christian, architect of the commissioners. The pulpit and reredos were added by Temple Lushington Moore in 1889. The tower was restored in 1980. Parish status The church is in a joint parish with All Saints' Church, North Street, York. Organ The church contained an organ before 1860. During the 1860 restoration, this was turned into a Swell, and a new Great manual of 7 stops was added. In 1921, F. D. Ward of Middlesbrough undertook some repairs and renovation. After 1930, the 1870 organ by Forster and Andrews from the Church of St Mary Bishophill Senior was installed here. The current pipe organ dates from 1864 and was originally made by William Denman for the Spiritualist Church on Spen Lane, York. Later it moved to Freemasons’ Hall and in 1986 Principal Pipe Organs installed it here. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register. References

Colmore Gate

Colmore Gate is an office and retail building in Birmingham, England. An example of early 1990s architecture by the Seymour Harris Partnership, the lift shaft is on the outside of the building and the windows are tinted a dark blue colour. The design blends a traditional look with modern materials and style. It is situated in the heart of the business district of Birmingham. The building is home to many large companies. The building sits on the former footprint of the old Greys department store, torn down by PJ Murray Haulage in the 1980s. The building was constructed after the developers bought the patch of land off another developing company whilst they were constructing a building there. The structure of a building was on the site and it was taken down before construction of Colmore Gate began.

The Colonnades, Croydon

The Colonnades Leisure Park or Croydon Colonnades is an out-of-town leisure park located in the Purley Way retail and industrial district of the London Borough of Croydon, South London. It opened in the late 1990s on the former site of the Croydon Water Palace, an indoor water park complex that operated from 1990 to 1996. It lies alongside the Purley Way Playing Fields, and opposite the former Croydon Airport site. The site is currently owned and operated by Croydon Council who finally completed the purchase in August 2019 at a cost of more than £50m. Tenants The Colonnades competes with the nearby Valley Retail and Leisure Park, a major commercial centre on Purley Way, but experiences less foot traffic due to the absence of a notable anchor tenant. Valley Park features IKEA, while the Purley Way Centre has Sainsbury's; however, The Colonnades positions itself as more of an entertainment complex than a shopping area. The retail park is the southernmost of the three on the A23 Purley Way, and is close to Purley town centre. Former tenants Many of the park's original attractions were entertainment-focused, such as City Limits, an indoor entertainment centre that included a restaurant, sports bar, arcade, and bowling alley. City Limits closed in the summer of 2010 after its lease was terminated by the owner, Punch Taverns. It is now split into two units, with one becoming a trampoline park and one becoming a branch of home-improvement chain Wickes. Other original tenants included Gipsy Moth (a family pub which previously also housed a small Wacky Warehouse soft play), the food court which used to house Subway, BBQ Xpress, China Wok and Karahi Cuisine. The Gipsy Moth closed in December 2017 and the site was demolished in 2018 to make way for a new multi-outlet retail unit, and in early 2019 McDonald's and Nando's were confirmed as tenants of two of the units. McDonald's was previously situated next-door to the Kidspace indoor playground until it moved to its current spot. Present-day tenants In 2010, it was announced that the retail park would include the first drive-through Costa Coffee outlet. This opened in 2015. On 2 October 2019 the complex mentioned plans to open a new KFC restaurant, occupied in the 3 restaurants in the second unit. This opened in late October 2019. Current tenants of the site include Pizza Hut, McDonald's, Premier Inn, Nando's, a Kidspace indoor adventure playground, an Oxygen trampoline park, Wickes and a Nuffield Health & Fitness Centre. T.G.I. Friday's had a restaurant located across the road from the retail area, which closed in October 2024 following the UK brand being put into administration, as well as a Hilton Hotel.

Colt Crag Reservoir

Colt Crag Reservoir is a relatively shallow reservoir in Northumberland, England adjacent to the A68 road, and 9 miles (14 km) north of Corbridge. The A68 road at this point runs along the course of Dere Street, a Roman road. History The reservoir was built at the end of the 19th century for the Newcastle and Gateshead Water Company. The reservoir forms part of a series of reservoirs along the A68 which are connected by tunnels and aqueducts from Catcleugh Reservoir to Whittle Dene; from where drinking water is supplied to Newcastle upon Tyne, Gateshead, and some surrounding areas. The reservoirs that form the chain are, from northwest to southeast: Catcleugh Reservoir → Colt Crag Reservoir → Little Swinburne Reservoir → Hallington Reservoirs → Whittle Dene. Flora and fauna Much of the reservoir is fringed by mature coniferous plantation, although birch and beech also grow here with bramble and raspberry providing much of the field layer. One of Colt Crag's main attractions are the great crested grebes, and there is also a colony of 20-30 pairs of house martins that return each year to nest under the eaves of the boathouse. The rough grassland adjacent to the site provides ideal breeding habitat for the cuckoo, meadow pipit, whinchat, and wheatear. Badgers are known to use the site during the summer months, and both pipistrelle and noctule bats may be seen feeding around the sheltered north eastern end of the reservoir. References

Colwick Hall

Colwick Hall was an English country house in Colwick, Nottinghamshire, England. It is now a hotel. The building is Grade II* listed. Colwick Hall is constructed of red brick, with ashlar dressings and hipped slate roofs with a 2-storey central block and single-storey wings. The frontage has four Ionic pillars surmounted by a pediment. History The earliest references to the estate occur on the death of William de Colwick in 1362, when it passed by the marriage of his daughter Joan to Sir Richard Byron, into the Byron family. The Byrons lived here for over 150 years until about 1660, when they moved to Newstead Abbey and Colwick Hall came into the ownership of the Musters family. John Musters replaced all of the older buildings with the present hall in 1775–1776. The new house was built by local builder, Samuel Stretton, from designs of John Carr of York. It was enclosed with a moat, crossed by drawbridge on the north side. In 1805 John Musters's son Jack married Mary Chaworth, Byron's childhood love-interest from Annesley Hall. In 1827 Jack inherited Colwick Hall from his father, but in 1831, during the Second Reform Bill disturbances, it was sacked and partly burned by rioters. Mary Chaworth Musters spent the night in pouring rain with her daughter Sophia, crouched beneath the shrubbery and died at Wiverton Hall some four months later from the shock. Jack and Mary's eldest son, John George Chaworth Musters (1807–1842), predeceased his father. He had married Emily Hamond, the youngest daughter of Philip Hamond of Westacre, Norfolk. Both of them died of tuberculosis, leaving three orphaned children. The eldest son, John Chaworth Musters (1838–1887), inherited the estates from his grandfather Jack in 1847. He in turn was succeeded in 1887 by his son John Patricius Musters (1860–1921), who in 1888 obtained licence to add the surname Chaworth to his own. In 1896 the hall was sold to the Nottingham Racecourse Company - the racecourse opened in 1892, the hall became a public house and the rest of the buildings were used to accommodate grooms and jockeys. Nottingham Corporation acquired the hall from the Racecourse Company in 1965. The building then fell into disrepair until it was saved by Chek Whyte, who won a competition to restore it. It was then sold to Pearl Hotels and Restaurants. See also Grade II* listed buildings in Nottinghamshire Listed buildings in Nottingham (Dale ward) References External links Official website
Colwick Hall

Colwick Hall est une maison de campagne anglaise à Colwick, Nottinghamshire. C'est maintenant un hôtel. Le bâtiment est classé Grade II*. Colwick Hall est construit en briques rouges, avec des pansements en pierre de taille et des toits en ardoise en croupe avec un bloc central de 2 étages et des ailes d'un étage. La façade comporte quatre piliers ioniques surmontés d'un fronton. Histoire Les premières références au domaine se produisent à la mort de William de Colwick en 1362, lorsqu'il passe par le mariage de sa fille Joan à Sir Richard Byron, dans la famille Byron. Les Byron vivent là pendant plus de 150 ans jusqu'en 1660 environ, lorsqu'ils déménagent à Newstead Abbey et que Colwick Hall devient la propriété de la famille Musters. John Musters remplace tous les bâtiments plus anciens par la maison actuelle en 1775–1776. La nouvelle maison est construite par le constructeur local, Samuel Stretton, d'après les plans de John Carr (architecte) (en) de York. Elle est entourée d'un fossé, traversé par un pont-levis du côté nord. En 1805, le fils de John Musters, Jack, épouse Mary Chaworth, l'amoureuse d'enfance de Byron d'Annesley Hall (Nottinghamshire). En 1827, Jack hérite de Colwick Hall de son père, mais en 1831, lors des troubles du deuxième projet de loi de réforme, il est saccagé et en partie incendié par des émeutiers. Mary Chaworth Musters passe la nuit sous une pluie battante avec sa fille Sophia, accroupie sous les arbustes et est décédée à Wiverton Hall environ quatre mois plus tard, du choc. Le fils aîné de Jack et Mary, John George Chaworth Musters (1807–1842), est décédé avant son père. Il épouse Emily Hamond, la plus jeune fille de Philip Hamond de Westacre, Norfolk. Tous deux sont morts de la tuberculose, laissant trois enfants orphelins. Le fils aîné, John Chaworth Musters (1838–1887), hérite des domaines de son grand-père Jack en 1847. Il est à son tour remplacé en 1887 par son fils John Patricius Musters (1860–1921), qui en 1888 obtient l'autorisation d'ajouter le nom de famille Chaworth au sien. En 1896, la maison est vendue à la Nottingham Racecourse Company - l'hippodrome ouvre ses portes en 1892, la maison devient un hôtel et le reste des bâtiments est utilisé pour accueillir les palefreniers et les jockeys. Nottingham Corporation acquiert la maison de la Racecourse Company en 1965. Le bâtiment tombe ensuite en ruine jusqu'à ce qu'il soit sauvé par Chek Whyte, qui remporte un concours pour le restaurer. Il est ensuite vendu à Pearl Hotels and Restaurants.

Combs Wood

Combs Wood is a 15.1 hectares (37 acres) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest on the southern outskirts of Stowmarket in Suffolk. It is owned and managed by the Suffolk Wildlife Trust. This is ancient coppice woodland on boulder clay, with variable quantities of sand and loess resulting in different soil types. In areas of pedunculate oak and hornbeam the ground flora is sparse, but it is rich and diverse in ash and maple woodland. Grassy rides and a pond provide additional habitats for invertebrates. There is access through the church grounds and through Holyoak Farm. References
