Morpeth School is a comprehensive secondary school and sixth form located in Bethnal Green, London Borough of Tower Hamlets, England. The school serves nearly 1200 pupils. History The school was founded by London County Council in 1910 as a central school with the name Morpeth Street School. The school was enlarged in 1927 by taking over premises of a primary school in Portman Place. During WWII the school located to Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk. In the 1960's admission by selection was discontinued and the school became comprehensive. An ex-headteacher of the school, Alasdair Uist Macdonald, was knighted in the 2007 New Year Honours for services to education, with his extensive work on improving the school, by improving teaching skills and achievements by pupils in their SATs and GCSEs results. In 1997, newly elected British prime minister Tony Blair visited the school. He praised the school's rising GCSE scores. By 2007, Morpeth's pupils come from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds; over half are from Bangladeshi backgrounds, while one-third are white British. The Bengali department developed in 2008 new materials for use at all levels in Bengali, which are made available to pupils from Year 8 to Year 9, or for GCSE. The subject is mainly chosen by Bangladeshi pupils, who mainly speak the Sylheti dialect. In 2009, Ofsted highlighted Morpeth as one of twelve outstanding schools serving disadvantaged communities. After attending the school end-of-year event in 2013, Church of England clergyman Hugh Rayment-Pickard praised the policy of giving certificates of achievement to all students, instead of holding prize-giving ceremonies to recognise only a small elite, and said that all Church of England schools should do the same. The school does have monthly awards for individuals. Notable former teachers The baritone and opera singer, Benjamin Luxon CBE, taught PE and English at Morpeth prior to the start of his singing career in 1962.

Morrab Gardens

Morrab Gardens (Cornish: Lowarth Morrep) are a municipal garden covering 1.2 ha (3.0 acres) to the south of Penzance town centre, Cornwall. It is known for its Mediterranean and sub-tropical plants; and for housing the Morrab Library in the grounds. Morrab House with its walled garden was built in 1841 for brewer Samuel Pidwell. The house is described as "...a large stucco villa in the Georgian manner with columned porch". Shortly after the Pidwell family moved to Portugal the property was purchased by Charles Campbell Ross, a banker and Member of Parliament for the St Ives Constituency. In September 1881, Ross advertised Morrab House for rent. There was also a cottage suitable for a coachman or gardener, stables for three horses, a conservatory with hot water apparatus, a dairy, coach-house, fruit and flower gardens, lawn and meadow land. Morrab House was auctioned on 29 August 1887 and was purchased for £2,800 by Mr King, who was Her Majesty's Inspector of Schools for the district. At that time a tenant was paying £115 rent for the house and 2.75 acres (1.11 ha) of gardens and meadow. On 16 July 1888 the house and walled gardens were bought by the Corporation of Penzance for £3,120 and tenders for the design of the garden were advertised nationally. The winning prize was £21, with ten guineas for second place plus two other prizes. Entrants came from all over the country with ten plans exhibited and four winners chosen. Reginald Upcher, a landscape gardener of Portland Place, London was commissioned, to develop the grassy fields sloping down to the sea into a municipal park. Robert Veitch of Exeter came second. The original design is held in the County Record Office, Truro and the garden follows faithfully Upcher's plan. The gardens opened on 27 September 1889 with a half day holiday and a procession through the streets. In the same year the Penzance Library (now known as the Morrab Library) secured a lease as tenants and moved to Morrab House from the municipal buildings. The garden is now in the ownership of Cornwall Council and features some Grade II Listed Buildings including a Victorian bandstand, fountain and Boer war memorial.

Moseley Old Hall

O Moseley Old Hall é um palácio rural, propriedade do National Trust, localizado a norte de Wolverhampton, no Midlands Ocidental, Inglaterra. É famoso como um dos locais de descanso de Carlos II de Inglaterra durante a sua fuga para França depois da derrota na Batalha de Worcester, em 1651. História O Moseley Old Hall foi construído em 1600 e serviu como residência da família Whitgreave, uma família natural do Staffordshire, essencialmente Católica e Realista. Thomas Whitgreave assistiu Carlos II quando o monarca chegou ali às primeiras horas do dia 8 de Setembro de 1651, depois duma jornada desde a Boscobel House. Thomas ao rei roupas secas, comida e uma cama apropriada (a sua primeira desde Worcester, no dia 3 de Setembro). O rei eseve escondido no priest-hole ("buraco do padre" - um esconderijo existente em algumas casas da época) por dois dias, enquanto planeava a rota para a sua fuga. Esteve acompanhado pelo padre Católico da família John Huddleston, que limpou e ligou os pés do rei. O edifício esteve nas mãos dos descendentes da família até 1925 e, durante esse tempo, poucas alterações estruturais foram feitas, com excepção do revestimento do edifício com tijolos vermelhos e da substituição das janelas isabelinas. Depois da década de 1820, parece que o Moseley Old Hall terá sido abandonado como residência da família a favor de Moseley Court, uma nova casa em Estilo Regência construída por George Whitgreave. O velho palácio foi usado como casa de lavoura até à Segunda Guerra Mundial, mas sofria de negligência quando o National Trust tomou conta dele, em 1962. Agora está totalmente restaurado e mobilado com generosas doações de móveis de época. A cama original usada por Carlos II encontra-se na Sala do Rei.

Mossy Lea Reservoir

Mossy Lea Reservoir is a disused reservoir near Glossop, north Derbyshire. In 1837, 50 local millowners and gentlemen, known as the "Commissioners of the Glossop Reservoirs", obtained an act of Parliament, the Glossop Reservoirs Act 1837 (7 Will. 4 & 1 Vict. c. lxxix), to construct the Glossop Reservoirs. Hurst Reservoir was on the Hurst Brook and Mossy Lea Reservoir was to take water from the Shelf Brook. Only the Hurst Reservoir was constructed before the money ran out. Mossy Lea Reservoir was constructed privately in 1840 by the Duke of Norfolk. It was taken over in 1929 by the Glossop Corporation Waterworks. This became part of the Manchester Corporation Waterworks in 1959. Swineshaw Reservoir, Hurst Reservoir and Mossy Lea Reservoir are no longer in service.

Mother Shipton's Cave

Mother Shipton's Cave (or "Old Mother Shipton's Cave") is at Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, England, near the River Nidd. Nearby is a petrifying well, also known as a dropping well. The latter is the oldest tourist attraction to charge a fee in England, and has been operated since 1630. The water of the well is so rich in sulphate and carbonate that artefacts may be put in the well to be "petrified" (encrusted) as a tourist attraction. The place is associated with the legendary soothsayer and prophetess Mother Shipton (c. 1488 – 1561), born Ursula Southeil, and reportedly the wife of Toby Shipton. According to legend, she was born in the cave. The cave and dropping well, together with other attractions, remain open to visitors and are run privately by Mother Shipton's Cave Ltd.

Mottram Hall

Mottram Hall (also known as Mottram New Hall or the Mottram Hall Hotel) is a former country house to the northeast of the village of Mottram St. Andrew, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building. It is not to be confused with Mottram Old Hall (alongside the access road 400m to the west). The house was built around 1750 by William Wright for his son. It is constructed of Flemish bond orange brick with buff sandstone dressings, with a Kerridge stone slate roof, nine brick chimneys, and a facade with projecting end pavilions which have 20th-century extensions. From the mid-1970s the building has been used as a hotel, and from 2014 to 2018 as part of the QHotels group. In 2012–13 the hotel underwent improvements and refurbishment at a cost of £5.5 million. This included a new restaurant, refurbishment of bedrooms, creation of conference suites, and restoration of the Garden Suite. In September 2018 the hotel was sold by the real estate investment company Aprirose to the hotel group Champneys (owned by Dorothy and Stephen Purdew). The Wright family The family tree of the Wrights is shown at left. There were six generations of this family that owned the house and these are numbered from 1 to 6 in red starting with William Wright its originator. William Wright built Mottram Hall in about 1750. He built the house for his son Randle but unfortunately his son died soon after its completion. William Wright was a wealthy landowner who was the proprietor of Offerton Hall near Stockport and also owned a townhouse in this village. He built St Peters Church in Stockport. He died in 1770 and as he had no heirs his estate was passed to the eldest son of his first cousin Rev Henry Offley Wright. It was then inherited by his son Laurence Wright and as he had no heirs it went to his nephew Rev Henry Wright. His daughter Julia Catherine who married James Frederick D’Arley Street then became the owner. When she died in 1916 her daughter Julia Mary who married twice inherited the house. It was she Julia Mary Wallis Wright who sold the house in 1922 and the advertisement is shown. It was bought by Walter Pownall who enjoyed gardening and often held open days to the public. He sold the house in 1939 (this advertisement is also shown). It then became a hotel.

Moulton railway station (North Yorkshire)

Moulton railway station was a railway station in North Yorkshire, England. It was situated near the village of North Cowton. Moulton was the Eryholme-Richmond branch line which was opened in 1846 by the York and Newcastle Railway Company. The line was closed for passengers in 1969 and completely a year later. Despite being only about one-quarter mile (0.40 km) from North Cowton the station was named after the village of Moulton some 3 miles (4.8 km) away. This was to avoid confusion with a now disused station on the East Coast Main Line named Cowton serving the nearby village of East Cowton. Moulton station house still survives, it is now used as a residential property, but the platform clock can still be seen on the wall. The Richmond bound platform now forms part of the boundary wall to station house. The Darlington-bound platform still stands intact, though it is heavily overgrown with trees, bushes and bramble thickets. The track bed is now used as an access road for a nearby smallholding, it is not officially recognised as a public right-of-way, though it has been used as a scenic footpath by local people for over 20 years.
