Holehird Gardens

Holehird Gardens is an extensive 10-acre site located near Windermere, Cumbria, England. It is the home of the Lakeland Horticultural Society. The garden consists of a large variety of plants, particularly those suited to the local climate with its high rainfall. It is made up of extensive rock and heather gardens, alpine houses, and a walled garden which is of particular interest for its herbaceous borders. It was once voted by BBC gardeners to be one of the nation's favourite gardens. History Holehird was built in the 1860s as a private home to a design by J. S. Crowther. The house was used by Leonard Cheshire Disability until 2020. The garden was created in the late nineteenth century by three successive owners of the mansion. The landscape architect Thomas Mawson enlarged the garden in 1902. However, by 1945 it became too expensive to maintain and it was effectively abandoned and totally overgrown. In 1969 the Lakeland Horticultural Society was formed and began to rescue the derelict garden. The staff at the gardens are all volunteers from the Lakeland Horticultural Society. They are the planters, weeders, propagators, designers and administrators. The guidebook “The Best of Britain” described it as a garden with “numerous different areas to explore including rock heather and walled gardens and herbaceous borders all bursting with colourful plants and enhanced with stunning views". The astilbes are a national Plant Heritage collection. Access The garden is open to the public throughout the year. Donations are invited for the upkeep of the gardens. There are also openings as part of the National Gardens Scheme. Holehird has been a regular participant in a "daffodil day", which the NGS organises in Cumbria.

Holford Hall

Holford Hall is a country house west of the village of Plumley, Cheshire, England. It consists of a fragment of a much larger timber-framed house, built in 1601 for Mary Cholmondeley on a moated site. Part of the building was demolished in the 1880s. The house is timber-framed with rendered infill. It has a stone-slate roof. The entrance front has two bays with gables and Ionic pilasters. The architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner describes this front as being "highly decorated". The house is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building. The stone bridge leading to the house across the moat is listed at Grade II, and the moated site on which the house stands is a scheduled monument. Holford Hall was purchased privately in 1988 and the hall and its estate has been renovated. In 2014 the working horse barn was transformed into a special events venue, and the Holford Mill was reconnected. Today the Holford Estate's formal gardens, event barn and mill operate as a wedding venue. See also Grade II* listed buildings in Cheshire East Listed buildings in Plumley References
Větrný mlýn (Holgate)

Větrný mlýn Holgate je pětipodlažní věžový větrný mlýn v Holgate v Yorku v severním Yorkshire v Anglii, který byl obnoven do funkčního stavu. Byl postaven v roce 1770 z cihelných kamenů prvním majitelem a mlynářem Georgem Waudem. On, jeho syn a vnuk vedli mlýn až do roku 1851. Mlýn byl původně vybaven pěti plachtovými lopatkami, které byly později nahrazeny dvojitými patentovými lopatkami. V roce 1841 byl mlýn popsán s třemi páry mlýnských kamenů, dvěma stroji a pěti lopatkami. Do roku 1858 byl přidán čtvrtý pár kamenů V roce 1859 byla postavena nová sýpka a instalován parní stroj, který zvětšil ziskovost mlýna. Bylo postaveno také další patro. V roce 1930 byl nainstalován velký elektromotor, který nahradil parní stroj, komín a kotelnu, které byly odstraněny. Po poškození bouří mlýn musel zastavit mletí větrnou energií. Mletí s elektromotorem skončilo úplně v roce 1933. V roce 1939 byla na mlýn natřena nová bílá barva. Poslední mlynář mlýna byl Thomas Mollet; Eliza Gutch a její rodina byli poslední známí majitelé mlýna. Mlýn byl v roce 1954 zařazen mezi památky třídy II. V roce 2001 vznikla společnost Holgate Conservation Society a mlýn se otevřel veřejnosti v roce 2005 poprvé po 70 letech. Plánování obnovy mlýna začalo v roce 2003 a obnovení začalo v roce 2006. Oficiální otevření se konalo dne 23. června 2012. Reference V tomto článku byl použit překlad textu z článku Holgate Windmill na anglické Wikipedii.

Holker Hall

Hooker Hall è una storica residenza del villaggio inglese di Lower Holker (dintorni di Cartmel), in Cumbria (Inghilterra nord-occidentale), realizzata perlopiù a partire dagli anni venti XVII secolo, ma in gran parte ricostruita nella seconda metà del XIX secolo. Fu la dimora della famiglia Cavendish. Il complesso è classificato come monumento di secondo grado (dal 1970). I giardini della tenuta sono stati invece inclusi tra i più bei giardini del mondo dalla Good Gardens Guide nel 1996 e hanno vinto il premio Christies/HHA Garden of the Year nel 1991. Descrizione La residenza si trova all'interno di un parco che si estende nella penisola di Cartmel e che si affaccia sulla baia di Morecombe. Il palazzo è in stile vittoriano o, più precisamente, neo-elisabettiano ed è realizzato in arenaria rossa. All'interno si trovano ritratti raffiguranti, tra gli altri, Carlo II e Caterina di Braganza. La tenuta ospita al suo interno un museo, il Lakeland Motor Museum. Storia Il primo edificio in loco fu costruito già nel XVI secolo. Nel 1756, la tenuta fu acquisita da famiglia Cavendish, duchi del Devonshire. Nel 1871, l'intera ala occidentale andò completamente distrutta in un incendio. Questa parte del complesso fu rimpiazzata da una nuova ala, realizzata dagli architetti Paley e Austin. Nel 1910, furono aggiunte ai giardini delle basse terrazze, un giardino delle rose e altri elementi ad opera dell'architetto Thomas Mawson. Nel 1937, Holker Hall ospitò la regina Maria. Punti d'interesse Giardini Tra i punti d'interesse dei giardini, vi è un tiglio dell'altezza di circa 72 piedi e del diametro di 92 pollici. Lakeland Motor Museum Il Lakeland Motor Museum, ospitato all'interno della tenuta, espone circa un centinaio di veicoli. Il museo ospita anche una mostra permanente, la mostra Campbell Bluebird, dedicata a Malcolm Campbell e Donald Campbell, campioni di velocità sulle acque del lago di Coniston.

Hollytrees Museum

Hollytrees Museum is a publicly owned museum in Castle Park in the centre of Colchester, close to Colchester Castle. It is situated in an eighteenth-century house ("Hollytrees"), which was used as a private residence until 1929, when it became a museum. The first house on the site, known as "Symnells" after its owner, was later bought by the Shaw family, and passed from John Shaw to John Shaw III and John Shaw IV. When he died a minor, the house passed into chancery; his mother Jane Lessingham bought it but soon died. The modern house was constructed in 1718 for Elizabeth Cornelisen, who had bought the site from Lessingham's executors and promptly tore down the existing structure in poor condition. Construction commenced on 10 May 1718 at a cost of £630 plus brickwork and tiling; the total refurbishment was estimated to have cost £2,000. She died soon after, bequeathing the house to her niece, Sarah Creffeild (née Webster), who left it to her second husband Charles Gray. It was, at that time, known as "Esqr Creffield's [sic]". Possession of the house reverted to the Creffeilds; through Thamer Creffeild to James Round, who left to his brother Charles, who left it to his son Charles Gray Round, who left to it to his nephew James Round. The Rounds finally sold it to the Corporation of Colchester in 1922, a purchase paid for privately by Viscount Cowdray and his wife. It became a museum in 1929. The house is known as Hollytrees after two holly trees planted in the grounds by Charles Gray in 1729 and is now a museum serving the centre of Colchester and specialising in local history. It also houses Colchester's Visitor Information Centre. It is a grade I listed building. In 2011, the collection at Hollytrees was expanded with the addition of a number of antique clocks, taken from the closing Tymperleys Clock Museum. In 2026, Hollytrees Museum opened a display of a large theropod dinosaur fossil, nicknamed "Juliasaurus"; the first dinosaur fossil to be displayed at the museum. Ownership The new house, constructed in 1718, was passed down through the family, as described above. Only those greyed out did not at some time own Hollytrees. It was finally sold by Lt. Col. Charles Round in 1922. References External links Hollytrees Museum and Visitor Information Centre - Colchester & Ipswich Museums Hollytrees Museum - Visit Colchester

Holm Island

Holm Island is an island in the River Thames in England on the reach above Penton Hook Lock, near Staines. It is on the Buckinghamshire bank, just upstream of Hollyhock Island. It is privately owned, and has a 5 bedroom 5000 sq ft house - which was marketed for sale at £3m in August 2025 along with Hollyhock Island. On the next door, smaller island of Hollyhock was once a house known as "The Nest", which was used as a hideaway by the future Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson during the 1930s. The island regularly floods, and the house built has been designed with a ground floor of void spaces designed to allow the flow of water if and when the island floods. When marketed for sale, it was shared that any future owner might wish to transform the existing house or demolish and re-build a flood-resilient or eco-amphibious house.

Holmes Chapel Comprehensive School

Holmes Chapel Comprehensive School is a co-educational secondary school and sixth form centre located in Holmes Chapel, Cheshire, England. It was founded in 1978 as a purpose-built 11–18 comprehensive and sixth form. It was opened in September 1978. The school is a designated academy and Training School which has also been accredited with both Sportsmark and Artsmark awards. OFSTED The most recent Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills (OFSTED) report concluded as follows: "This very effective school provides excellent value for money. Its success is based on exceptionally strong leadership, much very good teaching and the very good attitudes of the overwhelming majority of the pupils. The achievement of all groups of pupils is very good. Pupils make very good progress in most subjects and overall results in National Curriculum tests and GCSE and A-level examinations are well above average." Expansion and development Since it first opened over 40 years ago, HCCS's pupil population has grown, leading to expansion of the school buildings. In the last five years, a new Arts building was opened, as was an extension to the science department, and a complete refurbishment of all the science rooms was completed during the summer of 2007. Partially funded by donations and sponsorship from parents and local businesses, the Arts building is home to the art and music faculties, along with a number of rooms dedicated to Sixth Form use on the first floor including a common room, and other 'A level only' courses such as sociology and photography. In September 2006 a new dining hall facility was completed. This building helped to resolve the problem of over-crowding at lunchtime, allowing lunch to be served in two sittings, rather than four. It also houses a dedicated 'bistro' for the use of Sixth Form pupils, which currently provides food in the mornings, which ends after lunch. In 2013, the sixth form/arts block was redeveloped, also expanding the sixth form building. Temporary buildings were installed on the site for use as teaching facilities for the 6th form during the building period due to the structural defects discovered in the original facility. In 2016, the Arts building was demolished and has been replaced with a building which has its own theatre. The sixth form is also in this building, with teaching rooms, a common room and a quiet study area. It also has its own cafe which is only for students in year 12 and 13, as well as teachers. Notable alumni Harry Styles – Singer, songwriter (born 1994) Dean Ashton – Crewe Alexandra, West Ham United and England footballer (born 1983) Seth Johnson – Ex Crewe Alexandra, Derby County, Leeds United and England footballer (born 1979) Andy Porter – Ex Port Vale player and assistant coach, and York City assistant coach (born 1968) References Notes External links Official website Most recent OFSTED Report League Tables from the BBC

Holt Castle

Holt Castle (walisisk: Castell Holt) er ruinen af en borg fra middelalderen i byen Holt, Wrexham County Borough, Wales. Den blev påbegyndt i sidste halvdel af 1200-tallet af Edvard 1. under de walisiske krige. Den blev opført i det grænseområdet mellem Wales og England på bredden af floden Dee. I middelalderen havde borgen fem tårne, og blev kendt som Castrum Leonis eller Castle Lyons da den havde en løve som motiv hugget i stenene over hovedporten. I 1647 beordrede parlamentet at borgen skulle ødelægger, og i løbet af anden halvdel af 1600-tallet blev stort set alle stenene fjerne og brugt andetsteds. I dag står kun sandstenfundamentet og en lille smule af murværket. Se også Borge og slotte i Storbritannien og Irland Borge og slotte i Wales Referencer Eksterne henvisninger
