Vila romana de Bignor

A Villa romana de Bignor é uma enorme villa romana com pátio que foi escavada e posta em exibição pública na propriedade Bignor, no condado inglês de West Sussex. É conhecida pelos seus pisos de mosaico de alta qualidade, alguns dos mais inteiros e complexos do país. Localização A vila está localizada a norte de South Downs, próxima de Stane Street, aproximadamente 14,5 km a nordeste de Chichester (a cidade romana de Noviomagus Reginorum) e do vizinho e muito maior Palácio romano de Fishbourne. História e estrutura A presença de uma fazenda romano-britânica no lugar no fim do século I é apontada por descobertas, mas as primeiras evidências estruturais são de uma estrutura de fazenda de madeira simples que data de cerca de 190 d.C. Um prédio de pedra de quatro aposentos foi erguido na metade do século III d.C, e foi estendido entre c.240 e 290 d.C com o acréscimo de alguns novos quartos, um hipocausto e um pórtico posicionado para leste em direção à Stane Street.==Referências==
Adwick Town Hall

Adwick Town Hall is a municipal building in Adwick le Street, a town in South Yorkshire, in England. The hall, which currently accommodates St Leger Homes, is included in the local listing for Adwick Park. History The building was commissioned by the Rev. Joshua Brook, the vicar of St Laurence's Church, to serve as the rectory for the Church of St Lawrence which dates from the 12th century. The site he selected was in the grounds of Adwick Manor, which was the seat of the Washington family from the 16th century. The rectory was designed in the domestic style, built in brick with a cement render finish and was completed around 1682. Brook continued to live in the house until the end of the century. He was responsible for sinking a well there and for planting an orchard, before handing the building over to his successor. The building was enlarged when the Rev. Thomas Martin Symonds was the vicar in the mid-19th century. It continued to be used by successive vicars of the parish until a new rectory was built in Village Street in the early 1950s. Meanwhile, Adwick le Street Urban District Council, which had been formed in 1915, and subsequently established offices in Village Street, was seeking more substantial offices. The council purchased the old rectory to serve as its headquarters in 1952. The building was in poor condition, and the council decided to remove all the old timbers and replace them with concrete beams and floors. After the remedial works had been completed, the building was officially re-opened by Councillor Harry Baynham as Adwick Town Hall on 6 December 1955. The building continued to serve as the headquarters of the urban district council for another two decades, but ceased to be the local seat of government when the enlarged Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council was formed in 1974. It was subsequently used by the council for the delivery of local services and currently accommodates its housing division, known as St Leger Homes. Architecture The building is laid out as in two blocks joined to form an "L" shape. The main frontage faces west and features three large gables. There is a small porch with a gable, projected forward from the centre of the "L" shape, and the building is fenestrated with casement windows with hood moulds. References
125 Park Road

125 Park Road is a listed building in Westminster, London, England. Occupying a prominent site opposite the Hanover Gate entrance to Regent's Park, the 11 storey block of flats has 18 two bedroom, 18 one bedroom, four penthouse and one caretaker's flat. Three quarters (75%) of the 41 flats have views over the park. The block was one of the first funded and built on the co-ownership principle made possible by the formation of the Housing Corporation in 1964. Lessees contributed to a group mortgage and received a premium payment when they left. This was designed to reflect the increase in the value of the flat during their stay. Architects 125 Park Road was designed in the late 1960s by the architects Farrell/Grimshaw Partnership for the Mercury Housing Society. Both Sir Terry Farrell and Sir Nicholas Grimshaw were members of the society and lived in the block. It was their second scheme and, when listed in 2001, was commended for pioneering the British High Tech architecture movement. The block was completed in June 1970 at a contract cost of £227,000. Design The building is widely known for its corrugated aluminium cladding, round corners and sloping glazed roof. The exterior belies the light and spacious interiors of the flats. Living space is maximised by concentrating bathrooms, lifts and stairs in a central structural core. Natural light is maximised by placing the freestanding perimeter columns behind continuous window glazing. Curved corners add the sensation of panoramic views over London. Most internal walls are non-loadbearing which allows flats to be combined as larger units. This shows the benefits of designing residential accommodation on the same principles as commercial offices where habitable space is freed by concentrating services in a central core. Recognition and reputation In 1973, the flats were highly commended in the Housing Design Awards sponsored by the Secretary of State for the Environment. Increasingly, features about the building and individual flats started to appear in Sunday colour supplements and architectural magazines such as Building Design and Architectural Design. One of the penthouses was used as a film location, other flats were used for magazine and advertisement shoots. The inclusion of 125 Park Road in guides to modern British and London architecture, in Elain Harwood's England: A Guide to Post-war Listed Buildings and in Colin Amery's monograph on the early work of Nicholas Grimshaw helped to make the block a destination for visiting architects and students. It is now widely recognised as the first residential block designed on the office block principle of maximising habitable space around an easily accessible central service core.

Bradford Pennine Gateway

Bradford Pennine Gateway is a national nature reserve (NNR) around Bradford in West Yorkshire, England. The site covers an area of 1,274 hectares (3,150 acres) around northern Bradford, in Haworth, Harden, Bingley, Baildon, Shipley, and Ilkley. It is the first national nature reserve in West Yorkshire, and one promoted as part of King Charles' "King's Series" of national nature reserves. Background King Charles III has "..expressed a deep love and concern for England's wildlife, natural and rural places, frequently reflecting on his love of walking and its role in promoting a healthy mind and body." The King's Series project will designate five new NNRs every year between 2023 and 2027, making 25 new reserves in total. Natural England noted that Bradford has a population of 500,000, but is considered one of the most nature deprived cities in England. Designation and areas The Bradford Pennine Gateway was created in May 2025 and consists of eight sites across north and western Bradford, covering an area of 1,274 hectares (3,150 acres), which is twice the size of Ilkley Moor. The designation allows for greater protection of certain habitats such as wetlands, heathlands and peat bogs, which are home to adders, short-eared owls, golden plovers and curlews. Just over 40% of the designated NNR will be newly protected, with 738 hectares (1,820 acres) being designated as a site of special scientific interest (SSSI). The reserve covers areas in and around Baildon, Bingley, Burley, Harden, Haworth, Shipley, Stanbury and Ilkley. One part of the NNR around Bingley is that of Bingley North Bog, created over 10,000 years ago by a retreating glacier which left sediment behind making a wetland area. Work began on Bingley North Bog in August 2025 to clear paths restore the site and remove invasive species. Bingley North Bog is home to curlews herons, bats kingfishers and dragonflies. All of the sites contained within the reserve are managed by Bradford City Council, and it is hoped that the reserve will be the subject of field studies and research by local colleges and universities. The reserve is the first NNR in West Yorkshire, and is the seventh reserve to be developed in the King's Series. References External links Mapping of the sites
Ribblehead-Viadukt

Das Ribblehead-Viadukt ist eine Eisenbahnbrücke über das Tal des Flusses Ribble am Fuße des Berges Whernside in der englischen Grafschaft North Yorkshire. Die Brücke wurde von 1870 bis 1874 nach Plänen von John Sydney Crossley erbaut. Sie ist 32 Meter hoch, 402 Meter lang und wird von 24 Bögen in 4 Feldern getragen, die mit etwas stärkeren Pfeilern voneinander abgesetzt sind. Das Viadukt verläuft in einem leichten Bogen und ist daher auch aus den kurveninneren Fenstern des fahrenden Zuges heraus sichtbar. Es ist das längste Viadukt im Verlauf der Bahnstrecke Settle–Carlisle. Nachdem Pläne zur Stilllegung der Strecke nach Protesten aufgegeben wurden, wurde das Viadukt in den 1980er Jahren verkehrssicher gemacht. Seit 1985 ist es nur einspurig befahrbar. Kulturelle Rezeption Im Jahr 2016 erschien eine von ITV produzierte Drama-Miniserie, in Form eines Westerns, die von dem Bau des fiktiven Culverdale-Viadukt handelt und von dem Bau des Ribblehead-Viadukt inspiriert ist.

Ribblehead Viaduct

Het Ribblehead Viaduct is een Engels spoorwegviaduct in de vallei van de rivier de Ribble bij Ribblehead, in Noord-Yorkshire, Noord-Engeland. Het is het langste en beroemdste viaduct van de Settle & Carlisle Line, een spoorlijn die door dat spectaculaire Britse landschap loopt. Ribblehead station ligt minder dan een halve mijl (600 m) ten zuiden van het viaduct. Het viaduct werd ontworpen door de ingenieur John Sydney Crossley. De eerste steen werd gelegd op 12 oktober 1870 en de laatste in 1874. Het is 32 meter hoog en 402 meter lang. Het is opgebouwd uit vierentwintig bogen. Het is gelegen aan de voet van de berg van Whernside. Het viaduct heeft een flauwe bocht die kan worden gezien door de passagiers in de trein. De treinreis van Settle naar Carlisle is lang genoeg om een vakantieganger in Yorkshire Dales prachtige landschappen te laten zien. De Settle & Carlisle-lijn is een van de drie belangrijkste noord-zuid lijnen; samen met de West Coast Main Line via Penrith en de East Coast Main Line via Newcastle. British Rail deed een poging om de lijn te sluiten. Een latere gedeeltelijke oplossing was om een spoor te gebruiken op het viaduct. De eventuele sluitingsplannen veroorzaakten enorm protest en werden uiteindelijk ingetrokken. Het viaduct werd samen met de rest van de lijn gehandhaafd, en er zijn niet langer plannen om het te sluiten.
