Greenham Hall

Greenham Hall is a country house Wellington in Somerset. It was once the home of Admiral of the Fleet Sir John Kelly. It is a Grade II listed building. Originally known as Tremlett House, the main building was constructed in 1848 for Thomas Edward Clarke, a solicitor. It was acquired by the Chapman family in 1880, by Admiral Sir John Kelly in 1920 and was then used as a collecting point for army units during the Second World War. It was bought by the Norman family shortly after the war and then by Henry Ayre in 1970. It is still owned by the Ayre family and became a hotel in 1985. History The Reverend Thomas Clarke purchased Tremlett House, as it was then known, in 1696. The house was inherited by Clarke's grandson, Thomas Edward Clarke, a lawyer, in 1840. In 1846 Clarke married Georgina Mary Hall. The couple had four sons and five daughters. Thomas Edward Clarke had the main building rebuilt in 1848. In 1864 Thomas Edward Clarke put the house up for sale and the advertisement is shown. The next residents of the house were the Manley family. Henry Francis Manley was born in 1830 in Weeford Staffordshire. His father was John Shawe Manley of Manley Hall in Staffordshire and Braziers in Oxfordshire. Henry worked in the Diplomatic Service for many years and in 1871 published a book about his life as a Diplomat called “A continental tour: together with notes and anecdotes of diplomatic life”. In about 1875 Charles Chapman (1818-1894) bought Greenham Hall. Charles had humble beginnings but became very wealthy. When he was a young man he immigrated to Sydney in Australia and became an oil merchant. He built a very profitable business and, having sold his business, used his wealth to buy Greenham Hall in the 1870s. Charles died in 1894 and his three sons inherited his property in England. Major George Alexander Chapman (1850-1924) the eldest son appears to be the owner of Greenham Hall. He lived there with his wife Amy Parker Jenkins and his children for many years. The house was sold in about 1920 to Admiral Sir John Kelly who had become Director of Operations at the Admiralty the previous year. Kelly died in 1936 and his wife Maisie died a year later in 1937. Their daughter Antonia Kelly inherited Greenham Hall. The house was used as a collecting point for army units during the Second World War. Antonia Kelly sold it in 1946 shortly before her marriage to David St Clair Erskine. It was bought by the Norman family and in 1970 passed to the Ayre family. Greenham Hall is still owned by the Ayre family who since 1985 have provided bed and breakfast accommodation.

Gárdahadosztály emlékmű (London)

A gárdahadosztály londoni emlékműve (Guards Division War Memorial) egy első világháborús emlékmű a St. James’s Parkban. Története A hadosztály 14 ezer hősi halottjának emlékművére 1922-ben írták ki a pályázatot, amelyet Harold Chalton Bradshaw építész és Gilbert Ledward szobrász párosa nyert. A két művész Rómában ismerkedett meg, első tervüket Garibaldi római emlékműve inspirálta, majd azt fejlesztették a ma is látható formába. Az emlékmű egy háromlépcsős talapzatból, a fölé magasodó kenotáfiumból és az annak lábazatánál elhelyezett öt életnagyságú katonaszoborból áll. A szobrok a gárda öt ezredét (gránátos, skót, walesi, ír és Coldstream) jelképezik. A szobrok modelljei a gárda ír katonái voltak. Az emlékművön több bronztábla is található. A hátsó kővéset harcban álló tüzérséget ábrázol. Az emlékmű 11,77 méter magas, a kenotáfium portlandi kőből készült. A bronzszobrokat a W Morris Art Bronze Foundry öntötte, a kivitelező a Birmingham Guild volt. Az emlékművet 1926. október 16-án leplezték le. A második világháborúban egy bombarobbanás megrongálta az emlékművet. Több kisebb találat mellett az egyik katona bal vállán és arcán lyukat ütöttek a repeszek.

Five Mile House, Duntisbourne Abbots

The Five Mile House is a historic former pub located on Old Gloucester Road in Duntisbourne Abbots, Gloucestershire, England. Built in the 17th century, it is a grade II listed building. The pub was noted for its inclusion in the Campaign for Real Ale's National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors, highlighting its historical and architectural importance. Situated on the ancient Roman road of Ermin Street, the pub was referred to in documents from 1891 and 1903 as "The Old Inn," suggesting a long history of serving travelers and locals alike. The Five Mile House was owned and operated by the Ruck family from the 1930s until Ivy Ruck's passing in 1995. The pub's charm lay in its rustic features, including bare wood floors, open fires, wooden seating, and a small bar that led into the tap room. The pub was bought and refurbished by the Carrier family, and reopened in 1997. Despite its historical allure, the Five Mile House closed in 2015. The closure was attributed to a significant decline in passing trade following the re-routing of the A419, which diverted traffic away from the area. The building was converted into a private residence. References

Helter Skelter Publishing

Helter Skelter Publishing is a British publisher specialising in rock music. Helter Skelter was founded as a bookshop by Sean Body in 1995, who specifically chose the location of 4, Denmark Street as it had previously housed Regent Sounds Studios, which had recorded early work by the Rolling Stones. The shop specialised in books and fanzines covering Bob Dylan, which at one point accounted for 40% of its sales. It also sold sheet music and music-related artwork. Despite predictions it would not appeal to a wide market, and be "a boys' anorak paradise", a report in The Independent suggested that 20% of customers were women. Although the shop was popular, it was unable to cope with a 40% rise in shop rates, and it closed at the end of 2004. Body died of leukemia in April 2008. However, the name survives as a publishing company. References External links Official website
Greenbooth Reservoir

Greenbooth Reservoir is a reservoir to the north of Heywood and close to Norden in the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale, within Greater Manchester, England. History In 1846 Heywood Waterworks Company finished constructing the Naden Reservoirs (Lower Naden, Middle Naden and Higher Naden) in the valley above the village of Greenbooth. By the 1950s, the village consisted of around 80 cottages, a sweet shop, a Co-op store and a school. There was also a woollen mill. In 1958 the Heywood and Middleton Water Board decided that another reservoir was needed to supply water to the growing population of Rochdale and started construction of Greenbooth Reservoir that same year. It took over two years to build, with the village abandoned, mostly demolished and then submerged. The reservoir was completed in 1961 and officially opened in August 1965. The only visible reminder of Greenbooth village today is a plaque on the side of the reservoir dam wall which reads: "This tablet commemorates the village of Greenbooth, the site of which is submerged beneath the waters of this reservoir." In 2026 the Greenbooth to Ashworth Moor pipeline received the Institution of Civil Engineers North West Small Project Award for schemes under £5 million. The emergency scheme was delivered after the exceptionally dry spring of 2025 left Ashworth Moor Reservoir, Rochdale's main supply, at risk of running out of water. Engineers from United Utilities, Stantec and Avove Utilities designed and built a 2-kilometre (1.2 mi) pipeline, floating pumping station and associated treatment works in four months, using an abandoned culvert for part of the route to reduce environmental impact. Once operational, the project enabled reservoir levels to recover and maintained supplies during the prolonged dry weather. Location The four reservoirs sit in a quiet area suitable for country walks, with distant views towards Manchester. Some of the wind turbines at Scout Moor Wind Farm are also visible from the surrounding paths. References
Haigh Hall Miniature Railway

Haigh Hall Miniature Railway (HHMR) is a 15 in (381 mm) gauge miniature railway, situated in the grounds of Haigh Country Park in Haigh, Greater Manchester, England. The railway officially re-opened on 20 April 2014, but it had run trains under a new operator since late July 2013, running shuttle services between two stations; Haigh Hall North and Haigh Hall South. The full 1 mile (1.6 km) circuit was re-opened in early 2014. The railway first opened in 1986 under different operators; it runs over the same general track layout, but some alterations have been made over time. HHMR's resident locomotives are Helen and Rachel, they have been a part of the railway for some time. In December 2022 the Haigh Woodland Railway Association was formed and since that time has been working with a team of volunteers to rebuild much of the track to enable operations to begin in the future. The association has brought in an additional set of coaches which are formerly of the Dudley Zoo railway and windmill farm and these are undergoing minor restoration prior to being made available for service in future, The association members have also Purchased a number of Wagons to assist in the restoration and these are available when required. In September 2024 Wigan Council announced a restoration package of £380,000 that would enable the railway to return to service and once again take the full route of 1 mile through the upper plantations, once again calling at both stations. It is hoped that alongside the general service a program of special events will highlight the unique heritage of the railway as the last built municipally owned 15 inch gauge railway in the united kingdom.

Schmalspurbahnmuseum Irchester

Das Schmalspurbahnmuseum Irchester (englisch: Irchester Narrow Gauge Railway Museum) ist ein kleines Eisenbahnmuseum mit einer Meterspur-Eisenbahnlinie in Irchester bei Wellingborough in Northamptonshire, England. Geschichte Die Gegend um Wellingborough war reich an Eisenerz. Um 1872 wurde ein Steinbruch in Irchester eröffnet, um Eisenerz abzubauen, das vor allem in lokalen Eisenhütten verhüttet wurde. Um das immer größer werdende Transportaufkommen zu bewältigen, wurde eine dampfbetriebene Schmalspurbahn eingesetzt. Die Steinbrüche wurden 1969 geschlossen. Im Jahr 1971 eröffnete der Northamptonshire County Council auf dem Gelände der ehemaligen Tagebau-Steinbrüche den Irchester Country Park. Der Park verfügt über ein Netz von Spazierwegen, ein Besucherzentrum und einen Kinderspielplatz einer Gras- und Waldlandschaft. Innerhalb dieses Parks wurde das Museum 1987 im Bahnbetriebswerk der ehemaligen Eisenbahn eingerichtet. Es gibt dort mehr als 40 Ausstellungsstücke von Schmalspurfahrzeugen, darunter sieben Dampflokomotiven und zwei Diesellokomotiven. Ein 250 Meter langes Gleis mit einer Spurweite von 1000 mm wurde im Park verlegt. Der ursprüngliche Wassertank des Bahnbetriebswerkes wurde renoviert, komplett mit Beschriftung.

Irchester Narrow Gauge Railway Museum

The Irchester Narrow Gauge Railway Museum is a small railway museum and metre gauge railway near Irchester, near Wellingborough in Northamptonshire, England. History The area around Wellingborough was rich in iron ore. A quarry opened in Irchester around 1872 to extract the iron ore, which was mainly processed in the local iron works. Ironstone continued to be mined up until closure of the quarries in 1969. In 1971 the Northamptonshire County Council opened the Irchester Country Park, which is located on the site of the former opencast ironstone quarries. The park has a network of walks, a visitors centre and a children's play area in a grass and woodland setting. The museum was set-up within the park in 1987, inside a purpose built building to the west of the original ironstone railway maintenance yard. Access to the museum is along a footpath which follows the line of the ironstone railway trackbed. There are over 40 items of narrow gauge railway rolling stock including four steam locomotives and six diesel locomotives. A 250-metre long demonstration track with a gauge of 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) has been laid in the park. The original water tank has been recreated using a tank of similar design, complete with lettering matching the original.
