Château de Coupland

Le château de Coupland est situé dans le village de Coupland, 4 milles au nord-ouest de Wooler, Northumberland, Angleterre. Il s'agit d'un bâtiment classé Grade I. Le « château » classé Grade I est en fait une maison-tour « construite après 1584, avec des ajouts ultérieurs irréguliers ». Histoire Le château de Coupland est une maison-tour plutôt qu'un château et a probablement été construit à la fin du XVIe siècle, quelque temps après 1584. La tour a trois étages, avec un grenier au sommet et une petite tour en saillie portée le long du mur sud. Entre les deux tours, l'entrée du château porte la date 1594 inscrite sur le montant de la porte. Le bâtiment est constitué de moellons de différents types de pierres. De plus, le bâtiment possède une toiture en ardoise. Parmi les éléments historiques, l'escalier supérieur en colimaçon, conçu pour être défendu par un épéiste gaucher. Une ferme séparée est ajoutée au sud-ouest de la tour au XVIIIe siècle. En 1713, la propriété est achetée à la famille Wallis par Chaloner Ogle, un officier de marine prospère. Lors de son commandement du HMS Swallow (1703) contre le célèbre pirate Bartholomew Roberts lors de la bataille du cap Lopez en février 1722, Roberts est tué. Le château est agrandi au fil des années et restauré au XIXe siècle. En 1820, il est agrandi lorsqu'une maison à trois travées sur deux étages est construite à côté de la tour. La famille Bates est propriétaire du domaine au XVIIIe siècle. Elizabeth Bates, héritière du domaine, épouse Matthew Culley (né en 1731), un agronome réputé, en 1783. En 1820, la maison est la résidence de Matthew Culley, haut shérif de Northumberland cette année-là. Les Culley vendent le domaine en 1928. Le château de Coupland devient bâtiment classé Grade I le 21 septembre 1951. La liste indique que des modifications importantes ont été réalisées aux XVIe, XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles, puis vers 1820-1825. Robin Jell achète la propriété en 1979 et y vit avec sa seconde épouse Fiona. Jell décède en 2019 et en 2020, le château est mis en vente.

Court Green

Court Green is a house in North Tawton, Devon, England. It was the home the poets Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath moved to in late August 1961. Plath left the house on 10 December 1962, while Hughes lived there on and off for the rest of his life. It is the current home of his widow Carol Hughes. The house is listed Grade II on the National Heritage List for England. Sylvia Plath Sylvia Plath wrote most of the Ariel (1965) poems at Court Green. She composed "The Moon and the Yew Tree" about the ancient yew in the nearby churchyard, which could be seen from her bedroom window; the tree can still be seen today. The poem "The Bee Meeting" concerns an event which Plath observed just outside the wool factory on the River Taw near the house. Percy Keys, a neighbour of the Hughes during their time at Court Green, is mentioned in The Journals of Sylvia Plath, and his funeral is remembered in Plath's poem "Berck-Plage". Keys is buried in the graveyard on the hill above the house. Ted Hughes Ted Hughes wrote Crow (1970) and most of his later work at the house. He wrote standing at a lectern. Hughes died in 1998, and his friend Seamus Heaney read at the funeral service at the church across the lawn. References
Court Hey Park

Court Hey Park is a park in the Bowring Park suburb of Knowsley borough in Merseyside, England. It lies about 4+1⁄2 miles (7 km) east of Liverpool city centre. History Court Hey Park can be traced back to 1783 when it was a farmer's field forming part of the estate of Lord Derby. The grounds were acquired by Robertson Gladstone (1805–1875) who was elder brother to the four times Prime Minister, William Gladstone. Robertson Gladstone married Mary Ellen Heywood-Jones in January 1836 and the mansion house, Court Hey Hall, was built the same year in the 60-acre (240,000 m2) walled estate. Gladstone acquired the original sandstone railway sleepers once traversed by George Stephenson's world famous locomotive Rocket, most likely when the railway was converted to wooden sleepers in 1836-9. These were used to edge the main drives of the park and are still prominent today. The hall remained in the Gladstone family until the death of one of Robertson Gladstone's sons in 1919. In the same year it was bought by J. Bibby and Sons, a cattle food manufacturer. They established an experimental poultry and cattle feed farm and developed the park as a centre for sport and recreation. Recreation continued alongside a printing business, which was established in the grounds in 1923. Football, tennis, bowls and cricket were played in the park, while the hall was used for ballroom dances, billiards and other social activities. During the Second World War, part of the estate including the stable block was requisitioned by the Ministry of Agriculture Fisheries and Foods and used as a quarantine station. From the late 1940s Liverpool Pembroke, an athletic and cycling club, also used the park as a base until redevelopment forced them to move in the 1960s. The hall and grounds fell into disrepair and in 1951 the company sold the estate to Huyton-with-Roby Council. The hall was demolished in 1956 and part of the land sold to Vernons Pools. A housing estate was established, now called the Grangewood/High Beeches Estate. The original entrance to the Vernons factory runs alongside the eastern side of the estate. The stable buildings and sections of the original walled garden were the home of the National Wildflower Centre between 2000 and 2017. References External links Court Hey Park – Knowsley Council
