Bodmin Jail

Bodmin Jail (alternatively Bodmin Gaol) is a historic former prison situated in Bodmin, on the edge of Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. Built in 1779 and closed in 1927, a large range of buildings fell into ruin, but parts of the prison have been turned into a tourist attraction, and more recently another large part was converted into a hotel. History 1779 - 1927 Bodmin Gaol was designed by Sir John Call and built in 1779 by prisoners of war, and was operational for 150 years, in which it saw over 50 public hangings. It was the first British prison to hold prisoners in individual cells. The jail closed in 1927. Since that date, there has been no prison within the county of Cornwall. During the latter part of World War I, the prison was used for holding some of Britain's "State Papers and Records" including the Domesday Book. The material was in the jail in 1918-1919. 1927 - Today Bodmin Jail is now a hotel as of 2021 and after redevelopment that started in 2015, Bodmin Jail Limited now operates as a museum, gift shop and hosts guided tours at the site. A number of guided tours take place at the jail, including a heritage tour, paranormal walk, and self-guided tour. The attraction includes original jail cells, an administration block, and a recreation of Bodmin Moor located where the old hospital wing used to be. The paranormal tours include a ghost-hunting experience, where guests can use tools such as ouija boards to attempt to communicate with spirits. Ghosts Bodmin Jail has inspired many ghost stories, attracted paranormal researchers, and ghost walk events are held for tourists there. Most Haunted Series 6, Episode 1 of Most Haunted, a British-made reality TV show, saw the crew attempt their paranormal activities at the jail with presenter Yvette Fielding and medium, Derek Acorah. After many unsuccessful attempts, the team supposedly made contact with many light and sound entities, whilst Acorah claimed to have been possessed by a spirit named Kreed Kafer, a South African. It was later revealed that "Kreed Kafer" was a fictional character, who was created purely by parapsychologist and crew member Ciarán O'Keeffe, to test Derek Acorah and his abilities. The name was created because it was an anagram of the phrase 'Derek Faker'. Notable former inmates F.

Boggart Hole Clough

Boggart Hole Clough is a large woodland and urban country park in Blackley, a suburb of Manchester, England. It occupies an area of approximately 76 hectares (190 acres), part of an ancient woodland, with picturesque cloughs varying from steep ravines to sloping gullies. Clough is a local dialect word for a steep sided, wooded valley. Boggart Hole Clough was designated a Local Nature Reserve in 2008. Historically, local activists used Boggart Hole Clough for open air meetings but in 1896, when Manchester City Council acquired the land they tried to stop these meetings by fining speakers. The speakers rebelled by refusing to pay the fines and the publicity increased audiences from hundreds to tens of thousands. National figures began to attend, including Keir Hardie. A women's suffrage demonstration of 15,000 was held at Boggart Hole Clough on 15 July 1906 where a group of men caused a disturbance that was reported in the Manchester Guardian. Veteran suffragist campaigner Elizabeth Clarke Wolstenholme Elmy attended and wrote an account of being caught up in the scrum. The park stages a number of cross-country events and mountain bike rides, along with summer fundays and an annual bonfire and firework display. It also provides facilities for a number of other activities, ranging from boating to athletics. Boggart Hole Clough featured in the childhood memories of ex-Manchester City footballer Fred Eyre in his autobiography "Kicked Into Touch", who lived in the adjacent Clough Top Road. Local folklore holds that the clough is haunted by a boggart, a mischievous spirit found mainly in Lancashire and Yorkshire, perhaps in an attempt to explain the unusual name. In 2008, Boggart Hole Clough attained the Green Flag Award for the eighth consecutive year. Boggart Hole Brook rises in the clough. References

Bolling Hall, Bradford

Bolling Hall is one of the oldest buildings in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. It is currently used as a museum and education centre. The building is about a mile from the centre of Bradford in East Bowling. Its surroundings are suburban in character. Before the Industrial Revolution, Bradford was a small town and difficult to defend as it lay in a basin. However, Bolling Hall occupies a commanding position on a hillside. The earliest part of this building, dating from the 14th century, has been interpreted as a peel tower, although Bradford is somewhat outside the typical geographical area for these defensive structures. The Manor of Bolling (Bollinc) was first mentioned in the Domesday Book and was at that time in the possession of a man named Sindi. The manor then came under the control of Ilbert de Lacy. By 1316 the manor was owned by William Bolling, and Bollings owned the estate until the late 15th century when control went to the Tempests who held the estate until 1649. The estate changed hands several times thereafter until eventually it was let to several tenants until being presented to Bradford Corporation in 1912. It was opened as a museum three years later. During the second siege of Bradford in 1643, during the English Civil War, the house was a Royalist base. On this occasion the Royalists took the town, which had strong Parliamentarian sympathies, and it was thought that the victors would put the inhabitants to the sword. There is usually material on display relating to the English Civil War including a death mask of Oliver Cromwell. In the 18th century, parts of the house were modernised by the architect John Carr, following a fire. The Hall was designated as a Grade I listed building in 1952. The Bolling chapel at Bradford parish church, now Bradford Cathedral, was founded by the owners of Bolling Hall and was restored by the Tempest family in the 17th century but did not survive the 20th-century rebuilding of the chancel.

Bolling Hall

Bolling Hall est un manoir, l'un des bâtiments les plus anciens de Bradford (Yorkshire de l'Ouest, Angleterre). Il est actuellement utilisé comme musée et centre éducatif. Le bâtiment se trouve à environ 1,6 km du centre de Bradford, à East Bowling. Histoire Avant la révolution industrielle, Bradford est une petite ville difficile à défendre car située dans un bassin. Cependant, Bolling Hall occupe une position dominante à flanc de colline. La partie la plus ancienne de ce bâtiment, datant du XIVe siècle, est interprétée comme une tour pele, bien que Bradford se situe quelque peu en dehors de la zone géographique typique de ces structures défensives. Le manoir de Bolling (Bollinc) est mentionné pour la première fois dans le Domesday Book et est à cette époque en possession d'un homme nommé Sindi. Le manoir passe alors sous le contrôle d'Ilbert de Lacy. En 1316, le manoir appartient à William Bolling, et Bollings est propriétaire du domaine jusqu'à la fin du XVe siècle, lorsque le contrôle revient aux Tempest qui détiennent le domaine jusqu'en 1649. Le domaine change de mains plusieurs fois par la suite jusqu'à ce qu'il soit finalement loué à plusieurs locataires avant d'être offert à la Bradford Corporation en 1912. Il est ouvert en tant que musée trois ans plus tard. Lors du deuxième siège de Bradford en 1643, pendant la guerre civile anglaise, la maison est une base royaliste. A cette occasion, les royalistes prennent la ville, qui a de fortes sympathies parlementaires, et on pense que les vainqueurs passeraient les habitants au fil de l'épée. Il y a dans le musée des éléments exposés relatifs à la guerre civile anglaise, notamment un masque mortuaire d'Oliver Cromwell. Au XVIIIe siècle, certaines parties de la maison sont modernisées par l'architecte John Carr (architecte) (en), à la suite d'un incendie. La maison devient un bâtiment classé Grade I en 1952. La chapelle Bolling de l'église paroissiale de Bradford, aujourd'hui cathédrale de Bradford, a été fondée par les propriétaires de Bolling Hall et restaurée par la famille Tempest au XVIIe siècle, mais n'a pas survécu à la reconstruction du chœur au XXe siècle.

Bolton Abbey railway station

Bolton Abbey railway station is on the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway. It serves Bolton Abbey, although it is closer to Bolton Bridge, in North Yorkshire, England and several countryside walking routes. The station is the current terminus of the steam railway. History The station was opened in 1888 by the Midland Railway and was taken over by the London, Midland and Scottish railway. Bolton Abbey station has had a long Royal connection, being the nearest station to the Duke of Devonshire's Bolton Hall. The hall was very popular with British monarchs such as: King Edward VII (visited in 1902) King George V (visited in 1922) During the Second World War, an air-raid shelter was constructed for the Royal family in an air-raid. The last time the royal train came to Bolton Abbey was in 1947. It closed along with the line in March 1965 and the buildings soon became derelict. Following the purchase of the site and associated trackbed by the railway trust in 1995, the station was lovingly restored to its 1888 condition. It was officially re-opened on 1 May 1998 by Sir William McAlpine. Project plans The station originally had two platforms and a footbridge throughout its heyday, but one of the platforms became disused and the footbridge has been dismantled since closure. However, the E&BASR plans to reconstruct and restore the disused platform, possibly as an island platform which would include a platform 3, and also to rebuild the old station footbridge in order to link both platforms together again. This would return Bolton Abbey station to its former state in the days of the LMS (and BR London Midland Region), especially to how it was right up until the line's closure many years before. This is all part of the E&BASR's expansion plan(s) to extend the line back down to as far as Addingham (where a replica LMS style, temporary replacement station, will be built, as part of the proposed project). Information The Holywell Halt site is 1.5 miles away from Bolton Abbey. The station includes: A ticket office A gift shop A coffee shop A car park Walking routes See also Addingham Embsay Holywell Halt Stoneacre Loop References External links A history of the Embsay Railway Bolton Abbey information Video footage of Bolton Abbey railway station

Antes de esto se pensó que las momias peruanas se han conservado de forma natural. La resina, que se encuentran en las coníferas araucanas relacionado con el "pehuén", fue de una variedad que solo se encuentra en Oceanía y probablemente solo en Nueva Guinea. "La datación por radiocarbono tanto de la resina y el cuerpo por el laboratorio de radiocarbono de la Universidad de Oxford confirmaron que era esencialmente contemporánea, y la fecha a cerca de 1200."​ Véase también Bolton Steam Museum Papiro Oxirrinco 70 Contactos transoceánicos precolombinos Referencias Enlaces externos Bolton Museum website
