Stazione di Tottenham Hale

La stazione di Tottenham Hale è una stazione ferroviaria situata lungo la ferrovia Londra-Cambridge, a servizio del quartiere di Tottenham Hale, nel borgo londinese di Haringey. Storia La stazione è stata aperta al pubblico a settembre del 1840 dalla Northern & Eastern Railway (N&ER) con il nome di Tottenham, sulla linea che collega Stratford a Broxbourne (in Hertfordshire). Dal 1844 la gestione è passata alla Eastern Counties Railway e dal 1862 alla Great Eastern Railway. La stazione ha acquisito il nome Tottenham Hale dal 1875 al 1938, e poi definitivamente nel 1968. A partire dal 1923 la gestione della stazione è passata alla London & North Eastern Railway, nazionalizzata nel 1948 a fa parte della regione est della British Railways. In occasione dell'apertura della stazione della linea Victoria che sorge in corrispondenza della stazione, la stazione ha acquisito il nome definitivo di Tottenham Hale. Alla fine degli anni '90 è partito il servizio ferroviario dello Stansted Express per collegare l'aeroporto di Stansted e nello stesso periodo la stazione della British Rail è stata completamente ricostruita mentre quella della metropolitana è stata ristrutturata. Oggi non rimane nulla dell'originale edificio vittoriano. Con la privatizzazione delle ferrovie britanniche, la stazione è andata in gestione alla West Anglia Great Northern (WAGN) a partire dal gennaio del 1997. Progetti La TFL Transport for London ha un piano di espansione della stazione che comprende la realizzazione di una nuova entrata, il raddoppio della biglietteria, la costruzione di nuovi accessi ai binari, il prolungamento del ponte esistente per creare una nuova entrata dal paese di Hale e l'apertura di nuovi spazi commerciali. A febbraio 2013 il gruppo non profit: London First, guidato dall'ex Segretario di Stato per i Trasporti Adonis, ha confermato la proposta della TFL sulla tratta della Crossrail2 passante per Tottenham Hale: questa proposta comprende il rinnovo di 4 binari a Tottenham Hale per permettere collegamenti diretti con l'area sud-est di Londra. Movimento Stazioni successive: stazione di Northumberland Park a nord stazione di Hackney Downs a sud stazione di Lea Bridge a est Interscambi La stazione consente l'interscambio con la fermata omonima della linea Victoria della metropolitana di Londra. Nelle vicinanze della stazione effettuano fermata alcune linee urbane automobilistiche, gestite da London Buses.

70 St Mary Axe

70 St Mary Axe, informally known as the Can of Ham due to its shape, is an office building in the City of London. It was completed in early 2019. With 21 floors above ground, it is 90 metres (295 ft) tall and offers 28,000 square metres (301,400 sq ft) of office space. During its construction, the City of London Corporation decided to pedestrianise the part of St Mary Axe along which the building sits, between Bevis Marks to the south-west and Houndsditch to the north-east. Development The architectural design was created by Foggo Associates for Targetfollow, and planning permission was granted in 2008. Targetfollow sold the site to Nuveen in 2011 for £20m but development was delayed during the 2008 financial crisis. The sole tenant of 60 St Mary Axe agreed in 2014 to exit their lease early, and in 2015 Mace Group Ltd was appointed to build the project. Construction began that same year, and involved 400 workers, 90% of whom were employed through subcontractors. During development, the project was criticised by some for its shape and its size. Construction completed in Spring 2019, but the building did not open until later in the year. Subsequent sale US private equity firm Blackstone aimed to buy 70 St Mary Axe from owner Nuveen, but the bid failed in December 2024 because Blackstone's offer of £300m was below Nuveen's £322m asking price. An earlier plan to sell for £400m in 2022 was also abandoned due to lack of interest. In December 2025 it was announced that Nuveen had sold 70 St Mary Axe to Hayfin Capital Management and Capreon for a price of somewhere around £335m to £340m, with the purchase majority-funded by Hayfin, and debt financing provided by Santander and CaixaBank. In popular culture Television The building was used as the location for the interview stage in the 2019 and 2022 series of The Apprentice. Theatre The address, 70 St Mary Axe, was the location of the title character's offices in Gilbert and Sullivan's 1877 operetta The Sorcerer. Literature The address, 70 St Mary Axe, is a recurring location in the novels of Tom Holt, basing the use of the address on its previous use in Gilbert and Sullivan's The Sorcerer. References

William Woodsend Memorial Homes

The William Woodsend Memorial Homes were erected in 1912–13 on Derby Road in Lenton, Nottingham. They were built as six almshouses in memory of local builder William Woodsend by his sons, Jack and Arthur. These almshouses have several conditions of tenancy including preference to be given to persons who, through no fault of their own, have become reduced in circumstances. Or, to women previously employed as governesses, nurses or school mistresses who have not been able to make provision for their old age. The William Woodsend Memorial Homes charity looked after the property and its residents from 1913 until 2007. When the charity managing the homes ran out of money in 2007, the homes were taken over by the Nottingham Community Housing Association. References

Willington Hall

Willington Hall is a former country house in the parish of Willington, Cheshire, England. It was extended in 1878, but reduced in size in the 1950s, and has since been in use as a hotel. History The house was built in 1829 by Major William Tomkinson on land purchased in 1827 from Lord Alvanley. Designed by Nantwich architect George Latham, in 1878 a new east front was added for William's son James Tomkinson. At the same time a new wing and stable blocks were added, and in the 1920s a laundry block was built. Although it escaped the fate of the destruction of country houses in 20th-century Britain, during the 1950s it was reduced in size, removing the 1878 east front and some of the outbuildings. In 1955 a portico was added, and it has since been in use as a hotel. The house is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building. Architecture Willington Hall is constructed in orange brick with buff sandstone dressings and a Welsh slate roof. The brickwork is decorated with diapering in blue brick. The architectural style is described as Jacobean, or Neo-Elizabethan. The building is square in plan, plus a wing to the north. It has two storeys and an attic. The façades are symmetrical The garden front faces south and consists of three bays. The lateral bays contain canted bay windows and have shaped gables. The windows are mullioned and transomed. The entrance bay faces east and also has three bays, the lateral bays having triangular gables. At the front of the central bay is a porch with four Tuscan columns. Associated structures There are two structures associated with the hall that are also Grade II listed buildings. The first is a sundial in the garden dating from about 1830 and constructed in ashlar buff sandstone. The other consists of the south and east walls of the terrace, that are also in sandstone.

Willington Dovecote and Stables

Willington Dovecote & Stables is a National Trust property located in Willington, near Bedford, Bedfordshire, England. Both buildings are Grade I listed. Overview The property is a 16th-century stable and stone dovecote, which contains nesting boxes for over 1500 pigeons. The dovecote and stables themselves were commissioned by Sir John Gostwick. Completed in around 1541, they were made from the remains of a manorial complex, and include stones most likely taken from local priories, in particular Newnham Priory, after the dissolution of the monasteries. A signature on the stone above the fireplace in the stables reads "John Bunyan 1650" but Historic England doubts its authenticity.

Willington School

Willington Independent Preparatory School is situated in Wimbledon, south-west London. History The school was founded in 1885. It was situated in Putney, London, to cater for the boys of the growing middle class population of the area. The school's main purpose was to prepare pupils for public school entrance exams, with a number gaining scholarships, the first in 1888 to Francis Whipple for attendance at Merchant Taylors' School. Many scholarships for academic, sport, music and art are still awarded to students. After being housed at other villa-type sites in West Putney, the school moved to 5 Colinette Road in 1916, where it remained until 1990. By the early 1900s it had a role of about seventy boys including, from 1910 to 1921, about ten boarders, looked after by a matron. After the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939, the majority of boys were evacuated to Uckfield in Sussex, and after fall of France in 1940 to Tawstock Court in Devon. By September 1942 all boys had returned to London, with the school resuming as before. In 1961 the school became a charitable trust, it previously being owned by the Head, who sold it on to the next incumbent. Two new wings were added to the school building in 1968 and 1971, with the facilities improved and modernised. By 1975 the role had increased to 150. The school moved to its current location in Wimbledon in 1990. It was originally established and run as a school for boys aged 7 to 13, with the minimum age lowered to 4 in the 1930s. In 2020 it began a transition to become co-educational, offering an education to both boys and girls, aged 3 to 11. Students Notable former students include: Notes References Hodgson, C. P. B.

These were originally for "4 single poor men over 60 years of age and 4 single poor women over 55 years of age". There was an endowment of a farm at Roston and local land rents to give the residents a pension of £10 per year and a new grey cloth gown worth 3d per yard every two years, and 5 shillings worth of coal yearly. The charity which supports the almshouses, Charity 214252, is still administered by Lord Middleton, the descendants of George Willoughby.

Wills Building

The Wills Building is a well-known landmark in Newcastle upon Tyne. It was built in the Art Deco style as a cigarette factory in the late 1940s for W. D. & H. O. Wills. It is situated on the New Coast Road from Newcastle upon Tyne to the Billy Mill roundabout in North Shields, and overlooks the Wallsend golf course. It was originally built with the office block facing onto the New Coast Road with the factory itself forming the wings and rear of the building, making the whole factory complex into a pair of quadrangles. The complex included a theatre and leisure facilities for the staff. After the factory closed in 1986 it stood empty for a number of years. During this period it was a sad sight with windows smashed by vandals, but the front section of the building could not be demolished, having gained Grade II listed status in November 1986. Many local people thought it should be redeveloped and various schemes were put forward, including conversion into a hotel, but none of these came to fruition. The rear sections of the factory complex were demolished at around this time as the buildings were too impregnated with nicotine to be cost-effectively restored. The main building was converted into luxury residential apartments by George Wimpey, with its exterior and stonework carefully restored. It was officially reopened as The Wills Building in November 1999. Modern housing was built on the brownfield land to the rear. The Wills Building is featured in "Newcastle + Gateshead Architecture And Heritage" by Faulkner, Beacock and Jones (page 286, ISBN 1-904438-29-6). One feature of the conversion from factory to apartments was the use of blue tinted glass, as can be seen in the photograph, for the windows facing south looking over the New Coast Road, helping to reduce the solar gain of the large windows. Another notable feature of the conversion was the excellence of the soundproofing between the flats.
