Benn’s Island

Benn’s Island, wurde früher auch Church Eyot, Kember’s Eyot und manchmal auch Benn’s Ait genannt. Die Insel ist heute nach dem Besitzer einer nicht mehr existierenden Bootswerkstatt benannt. Die Insel befindet sich in der Themse nahe dem Ufer von Middlesex bei Hampton im London Borough of Richmond upon Thames oberhalb des Molesey Lock und ist in Privatbesitz. Der Fluss zwischen dem Ufer von Middlesex und der Insel ist flach, aber für kleine Boote mit Vorsicht befahrbar. Im 19. Jahrhundert wurde die Insel vom heute auf dem Sunbury Lock Ait beheimateten Thames Valley Sailing Club genutzt, der seinen Sitz auf einem an der Insel festgemachten Hausboot hatte, das 1900 durch ein Feuer zerstört wurde. Seit 1945 ist die Insel an den Hampton Sailing Club verpachtet. 1962 wurde dessen Clubhaus auf Pfählen vor die Insel gebaut. Großflächige Bauarbeiten und die Pfähle hinterlassen bei einem flüchtigen Beobachter den Eindruck, die ganze Insel sei künstlich angelegt; es handelt sich allerdings nur um umfangreiche Erweiterungen der Insel. Das Clubhaus ist mit Benn’s Alley, einer schmalen Slipanlage am nördlichen Flussufer, durch eine handbetriebene Personen-Kettenfähre am flussabwärts gelegenen Ende der Insel verbunden. Die Hampton Ferry verbindet die Insel mit Molesey. Siehe auch Liste der Inseln in der Themse Einzelnachweise
Benn's Island

Benn's Island, previously named Church Eyot, Kember's Eyot and sometimes referred to as Benn's Ait, is a private 0.1-acre (0.040 ha) ait (island) on the River Thames south-west of London. It is among a string of narrow islands above Molesey Lock and due to its clubhouse and size – the second-smallest named island on the Thames – it has deep foundation pilings to raise the building more than 1 m above the water line. Location and access Benn's Island, the second-smallest public map-named island on the Thames, is close to the left bank of the River Thames at Hampton, in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames in England, on the reach above Molesey Lock, the second non-tidal reach of the river. The water between the island and the near bank is shallow and navigable with care to small vessels. The clubhouse is linked to Benn's Alley, a narrow slipway on the northern bank by a manually operated pedestrian chain ferry at the downstream end. Hampton Ferry connecting to Molesey operates to the east of the island using a separate set of steps or slipway and directly facing to St Mary's Church. Use In the 19th century the island was used by the then Thames Valley Sailing Club, transforming to the Middle Thames Yacht and motorboat club on Sunbury Lock Ait, whose then headquarters were a houseboat moored at Benn's Island and which was destroyed by fire in 1900. Since 1945 it has been leased by Hampton Sailing Club which also conducts some paddleboarding and shares the reach with two school watersports clubs and Molesey Boat Club. In 1962 the clubhouse was built on the piles at Benn's Island. Extensive building works and piling make on casual observance the island seem wholly artificial, disguising its natural small core with substantial extensions.

Benn Hall

The Benn Hall is a conference, seminar, exhibition, concert and party venue located in Rugby, Warwickshire, England. The hall, along with the town hall which is located next to it, was opened on 5 July 1961 by Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. It was designed by Ernest Prestwich, and is named after George Charles Benn who in his will of 1895 left £6,000 to the local council to construct a building that would be useful to the town. The first of these buildings was opened in 1900 as a town hall. There is another Benn Hall, also dedicated to George Charles, in the village of Grandborough a few miles south of Rugby. In the 1960s Benn Hall became renown as a venue which attracted some famous names in the world of contemporary music: Some of the acts which performed there included John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, John Lee Hooker, The Small Faces, Pink Floyd, Status Quo, The Searchers, The Foundations, The Kinks, The Animals, and The Bee Gees. The Beatles had been booked to perform at Benn Hall in February 1963, but did not honour the date, as by then they had become national stars. The building itself has two storeys. The main hall can hold up to 480 people, the smaller Rokeby Room 100 and the smallest room, Caldecott Room can hold 20. Dressing rooms are located beneath the main stage on the lower ground floor level and there is a bar located in the Caldecott Room. Parking for the hall is found in the pay and display car park next to it and Caldecott Park is to the rear of the hall. References External links Official website
Viaduc de Bennerley

Le viaduc de Bennerley (à l'origine viaduc d'Ilkeston et connu de manière informelle sous le nom d'Iron Giant, soit « géant de fer ») est un ancien pont ferroviaire, devenu pont piétonnier et cyclable, entre Ilkeston dans le Derbyshire, et Awsworth dans le Nottinghamshire, dans le centre de l'Angleterre. Le seul pont similaire survivant au Royaume-Uni est le viaduc de Meldon (en) dans le Devon. Situation ferroviaire Histoire Il a été achevé en 1877 et pour porter l'extension dans le Derbyshire du Great Northern Railway (GNR) au-delà de la rivière Erewash (en) qui forme la limite du comté. Il a été utilisé à partir de janvier 1878. Son usage s'est déroulé sans incident, à l'exception de dommages mineurs infligés par un bombardement de Zeppelin pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. Une démolition du viaduc n'a par chance jamais pu être faite en raison du coût de démantèlement de la ferronnerie et il est devenu un bâtiment classé en 1974. Après sa fermeture, le viaduc n'a reçu que peu d'entretien et est tombé en ruine. Railway Paths, un organisme de bienfaisance pour la marche et le cyclisme, l'a acquis pour le préserver en 2001 mais les travaux ont échoué en raison d'un manque de financement. Le viaduc a été inscrit au registre du patrimoine en péril (Heritage at Risk Register (en)) en 2007 et sur la liste de l'observatoire mondial des monuments de 2020. Une enquête détaillée a été entreprise en 2016 et le financement des travaux de restauration a été obtenu en 2019. Il a finalement ouvert au public dans le cadre d'un itinéraire cyclable et pédestre en janvier 2022. Caractéristiques Techniquement, le viaduc se compose de seize travées en fer forgé avec des poutres en treillis, portées sur quinze piles en fer forgé qui ne sont pas fixées au sol mais soutenues par des bases en brique et en pierre de taille. Le viaduc mesure 18 mètres de haut pour 8 mètres de large entre les parapets et plus de 400 mètres de long en tout.

Bennerleyviadukten

Bennerleyviadukten är en oanvänd järnvägsviadukt över Erewashdalen mellan Awsworth i Nottinghamshire och Ilkeston i Derbyshire i Storbritannien. Viadukten byggdes 1877 och användes för järnvägstrafik fram till 1986, varefter den 1998 såldes till den ideella organisationen Railway Paths Ltd. Den är ett byggnadsminne och är planerad att restaureras 2020. Viadukten uppfördes under perioden maj 1876–november 1877 och var en del av Great Northern Railwayss förlängning till Derbyshire och Staffordshire, som byggdes delvis för att bryta kolförekomsterna i Derbyshire och Nottinghamshire. Den är en fackverksbro av gjutjärn, är 443 meter lång och löper med 16 spann 18,5 meter över floden Erewash. Den ritades av Richard Johnson. I Ilkeston-ändan har viadukten tre extra spann, som bar bron över Erewash Canal och Midland Railway. Bombraid av zeppelinare Den 31 januari 1916 genomförde nio zeppelinare från den tyska flottans luftskeppsdivision ett bombangrepp i Midlands i Storbritannien, vilket kallas "Great Midlands Raid". Ett av dessa luftskepp, L 20, baserad i Tondern (idag Tønder) i nuvarande danska Nordslesvig, utförde en bombraid i området omkring Bennerleyviadukten. Sju bomber fälldes omkring bron, varav en föll strax norr om viadukten på Midland Railway-linjen vid Bennerley Junction, som låg nära Bennerley Ironworks. Järnvägslinjen skadades, men inte viadukten. Vid samma raid, något senare, släppte L 20 15 bomber på det närliggande Stanton Ironworks, varav en skadade järnvägsbron över Nutbrook Canal. Den 4 maj, efter en andra bombraid mot England, kraschlandade L 20 efter bränslebrist nära Stavanger i Norge. Efter stängning Det förhållande att Bennerleyviadukten byggdes i gjutjärn räddade viadukten från att skrotas. Anbudsgivarna begärde en hög ersättningen under motivering att bron inte kunde skäras upp med skärbrännare, utan måste demonteras nit för nit. Viadukten klarade sig från rivning och blev i stället ett byggnadsminne.

Bennett Memorial Diocesan School

Bennett Memorial Diocesan School is an all ability co-educational academy in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England, which caters for students from age 11 to 18. History The school was founded on 17 October 1951 by Lady Elena Bennett of Matfield and Christopher M. Chavasse, Bishop of Rochester. Lady Bennett donated the funding for the school in memory of her late husband, Sir Thomas Bennett. Lady Bennett designed the school’s coat of arms. The badger was chosen by Lady Bennett because her maiden name was Brooke-Jones (which reminded her of brock, a name for a badger) as well as often seeing badgers around the school site. She chose the school’s motto, Semper Tenax, because she believed the school would maintain Christian values. The school opened to 400 students and 18 teachers on 8 January 1953. n 1960 the foundation stone for the chapel was laid by Bishop Chavasse. This is still outside the main hall at the chapel end. In 1967 Lady Bennett died, and her coffin was placed in the chapel for the students to visit. The third headteacher was Ann Scott, after whom the Ann Scott Wing is named. In 1976 Bennett became a comprehensive school, accepting students of all abilities from a large part of the Diocese of Rochester rather than just Tunbridge Wells. It was shortly after this time that the Bennett sixth form was opened for A-Level students. In 1993 Bennett accepted boys into Year 7. Pupils from the school were chosen to form part of a "guard of honour" for athletes at the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympic Games, displaying artistic creations their school made to celebrate the event. In 2012, the school announced plans for a new sixth form centre. Construction of the Sixth Form Study Centre started in March 2013, and it opened to staff and students in January 2014. It was opened in February 2014 by the Education Secretary Michael Gove. The 3G Pitch was built in 2017 so that rugby and football could be played in any weather conditions. Inspections by Ofsted The school's first inspection by Ofsted after becoming an academy was in 2012, with a judgement of Outstanding. The school's second inspection was in 2023, again with a judgement of Outstanding. Notable alumni Douglas Booth, model and actor Joanne Rout, swimmer Scott Wagstaff, footballer Matt Weston, skeleton racer Jonny Williams, footballer Notable staff Sir Ian Bauckham, head teacher 2004-2007, and executive head for several more, before becoming head of Ofqual.

Benthall Hall

Benthall Hall is a 16th-century English country house in Benthall in the town of Broseley, Shropshire, England, and a few miles from the historic Ironbridge Gorge. It retains much of its fine oak interior, and an elaborate 17th-century staircase. It is still occupied by the Benthall family, but has been owned by the National Trust since 1958, and is open to the public every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday (February – October). The Hall was built around 1580, probably on the site of an earlier 12th-century medieval manor and manor house. During the Civil War it was garrisoned, and was a site of several skirmishes. The garden is largely the product of two tenants. George Maw (1832–1912), local pottery manufacturer and crocus enthusiast developed the garden from around 1865 onwards. Subsequently, the Victorian era Romantic painter and sculptor Robert Bateman (1842–1922), who was the son of a famous horticulturalist, added the rockeries and terraces of the current garden. The Restoration era church of St. Bartholomew, built 1667–68, stands close by the Hall. The Shropshire Way, a waymarked long-distance footpath, passes through the extensive woodland that lies to the north, between the estate and the River Severn. In the film Enola Holmes, Benthall Hall was used for the exterior shots of the Holmes' family estate.

Benthall Hall

Benthall Hall est une maison de campagne anglaise du XVIe siècle située à Benthall, dans la ville de Broseley, dans le Shropshire, Angleterre, et à quelques kilomètres de l'historique Vallée d'Ironbridge. Elle conserve une grande partie de son bel intérieur en chêne et un escalier élaboré du XVIIe siècle. Elle est toujours occupée par la famille Benthall, mais appartient au National Trust depuis 1958 et est ouverte au public tous les lundis, mardis, mercredis, samedis, dimanches et jours fériés (février à octobre). La maison est construite vers 1580, probablement sur le site d'un ancien manoir médiéval du XIIe siècle. Pendant la guerre civile, il est mis en garnison et est le site de plusieurs escarmouches. Le jardin est en grande partie le produit de deux locataires. George Maw (1832–1912), fabricant de poterie local et passionné de crocus, développe le jardin à partir de 1865 environ. Par la suite, le peintre et sculpteur romantique de l'époque victorienne Robert Bateman (artiste) (en) (1842-1922), qui est le fils d'un célèbre horticulteur, ajoute les rocailles et les terrasses du jardin actuel. L'église Saint-Barthélemy de l'époque de la Restauration, construite entre 1667 et 1668, se dresse à proximité de la maison. Le Shropshire Way, un sentier longue distance balisé, traverse la vaste forêt qui s'étend au nord, entre le domaine et la rivière Severn. Dans Enola Holmes, Benthall Hall est utilisé pour les plans extérieurs du domaine familial des Holmes.

The school gained Technology College status in 2002, after the head teacher advertised in Private Eye for sponsorship for the Technology College application Awards received include Sportsmark Award, Artsmark Gold and International School Award. History Benton Park school was built in the grounds of old Benton Park house. The school was established by Joseph Riley in 1838 and by 1851 he had 33 boys in residence. His son John was also a teacher there. In the 1860s it was bought by the Milligan family for use as a private home and was not used as an educational establishment until Littlemoor School utilized the premises as a senior department from 1951 until 1957 when the building was demolished. The new school was built in contemporary brutalist style by Sir John Burnet, Tait and Partners in the late 1950s and early 1960s, being formally opened by Lord ST. Oswald on Saturday 11 March 1961. In 2015, the Yorkshire Evening Post published an investigation into the risks posed by asbestos in the structure of the main school building.
