Boundstone Community College

Boundstone Community College was a co-educational comprehensive school for pupils aged 11 to 18, with around 1,000 pupils, including over 100 in the Sixth Form, which served the communities of Lancing and Sompting. The school closed on 31 August 2009, being replaced by the Sir Robert Woodard Academy. History Lancing Senior Mixed Council School opened in Irene Avenue, Lancing in 1935, in the buildings currently occupied by the Globe Primary School. The original site was intended to accommodate up to 360 pupils between the ages of 11 and 14. It was moved to its current site on Boundstone Lane in 1960 where it became Lancing Secondary Modern School. Pupils wishing to attend grammar school travelled to either Worthing or Shoreham. Boundstone became one of the "Comprehensives" from the autumn term of 1967, continuing to cater for an intake from 11 years old upwards – five forms plus a two-year Sixth. The first comprehensive intake graduated from the Sixth Form in 1974. In 1975, West Sussex County Council reorganised provision in the area. Boundstone became a comprehensive upper school for pupils aged 12 and over, while younger pupils stayed at primary middle schools until this age. In 2008, this change was reverted, and Boundstone once again became a full secondary school for pupils aged 11 to 18. The school closed on 31 August 2009, being replaced by an academy operated by a partnership between West Sussex County Council and the Woodard Schools organisation. The new academy is called the Sir Robert Woodard Academy. Campus The college was based on, and named after Boundstone Lane, the historic boundary between the villages of Sompting and Lancing, the two main communities which the college served. The boundstone or boundary stone which marked the boundary between the villages survives and was kept at the college, which was entirely on the Sompting side of the boundary. At the time of the change to the age of transfer of pupils, a new building was completed to house new Year 7 pupils. After the renaming to Woodard Academy, the school was completely rebuilt on its existing site, and the 1960s buildings were demolished in early 2012. Curriculum Boundstone Community College was designated a specialist college for the performing arts in 2002. The academy which replaced the school has twin specialisms of Performing Arts and Mathematics. References External links Boundstone Archive Website Performing Arts website
Bourn Hall Clinic

Bourn Hall Clinic in Bourn, Cambridgeshire, England, is a centre for the treatment of infertility. The original building, Bourn Hall, is about 400 years old. Since becoming a medical centre, it has been greatly extended. History Bourn Hall Clinic was founded in 1980 by IVF pioneers Mr Patrick Steptoe, embryologist Jean Purdy and Professor Robert Edwards, who were responsible for the conception of Louise Brown, the world's first IVF or test-tube baby in 1977. Since its foundation the clinic has assisted in the conception of over 10,000 babies. Following the death of Patrick Steptoe in 1988, Peter Brinsden was appointed Medical Director in March 1989. Bourn Hall Clinic is one of five fertility centres selected by the NHS East of England Specialised Commissioning Group to provide treatment to patients in the region. As of 1 May 2009, childless couples in Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire will be able to access up to three cycles of IVF, plus a further three frozen embryo transfers. A breakthrough that occurred in Bourn Hall’s early days was the application of cryobiology to IVF, allowed embryos to be frozen for transfer at a later date. The first "frozen babies" were born in 1984. Bourn Hall also led the way in offering in vitro fertilisation surrogacy. They treated the first couple in the United Kingdom in 1988 and the first IVF surrogacy child was born in 1989. The world’s first baby born as a result of directly injecting a single sperm into the centre of an oocyte was conceived at Bourn Hall. Since this birth in 1992 "intracytoplasmic sperm injection" or ICSI has been adopted by IVF clinics around the world. More recently, Bourn Hall pioneered the use of blastocyst culture, where the embryo is grown for up to five days prior to implantation. This increases the chances of IVF success. In 2009, Bourn Hall acquired the former ISIS Fertility Centre in Colchester, Essex which has enabled more convenient access to both NHS and self funded fertility treatments for patients from the Essex and Suffolk regions. In 2010 Bourn Hall Clinic celebrated the award of the Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine to co-founder Professor Robert Edwards. A plaque was unveiled at the Clinic in July 2013 by Louise Brown and Alastair MacDonald—the world's first IVF baby boy—commemorating Steptoe and Edwards. The plaque missed out Jean Purdy who had been the person who chose Bourn Hall, was a co-founder of the clinic and an equal partner in developing IVF. In 2018, to mark the 40th anniversary of IVF, the clinic unveiled an additional memorial to Jean Purdy, the "world's first IVF nurse and embryologist. Co-founder of Bourn Hall Clinic". The current Science Director, appointed in January 2018, is Martyn Blayney MSc, DIP RCPath.

Bourne Academy

Bourne Academy is an 11 to 18 mixed comprehensive school and a co-educational academy located in Bourne, Lincolnshire, England. It is one of two secondary schools, both co-educational, in the town, the other being Bourne Grammar School. Bourne Academy is a part of the South Lincolnshire Academies Trust (SLAT), together with Spalding Academy, Spalding and Giles Academy, Boston. Bourne Academy is situated northeast in the town, on Edinburgh Crescent, next to the Bourne Leisure Centre. The school badge represents the Wake knot, a heraldic device referring to the Wake family, previous Lords of the Manor of Bourne, and similar to the carrick bend. History The school was originally part of the Star Lane Board School, which is now the Bourne Abbey Primary Academy. Following the Education Act 1944, the secondary school was divided out and moved to temporary premises at a separate site in 1946. In July 1958, the first permanent buildings were opened at Edinburgh Crescent, the road south of the school. The school adopted the name Bourne County Secondary School. In 1987, the name was changed to the Robert Manning School in honour of Robert Mannyng (c. 1275 – c. 1338). The sixth form started in 1988 with only 13 students. In 1989, extension premises were opened by Kenneth Baker, Secretary of State for Education. In 1999, the school attained Technology College status and the name changed again, to Robert Manning Technology College. Specialist school In January 2007, it was announced that, in recognition of its excellence, the school had been invited by the government to apply to take on a second speciality in Vocational Education, and that its application was successful. Due to the school's new speciality, the Governors decided to change the name once more, to the Robert Manning College. Academy Following a successful application, Robert Manning Technology College converted to academy status on 1 January 2012, becoming Bourne Academy.

Bourne End Railway Bridge

Bourne End Railway Bridge is a railway bridge carrying the Marlow Branch Line, and a footpath over the River Thames in Bourne End, Buckinghamshire, England. It crosses the Thames on the reach between Cookham Lock and Marlow Lock. The bridge was originally constructed in wood by Isambard Kingdom Brunel as part of the Wycombe Railway, opened in 1854 and operated in broad gauge until 1870. The narrow spans were unpopular with river traffic and the bridge was reconstructed in steel in 1895. A footbridge, cantilevered out from the railway bridge was added in 1992, to take the Thames Path across the river; this substitutes for the historical towpath crossing point at Spade Oak ferry, about 1 km upstream of the bridge. In 2013, the bridge was restored and repainted in green, and a large number of rivets which had rusted away were replaced. The restoration took nearly a year to complete, being finished in December. There was a plan to electrify the line, but due to cost overruns during electrifying the GWR main line, this has apparently been postponed indefinitely.

Bournemouth Collegiate School

Bournemouth Collegiate School is a coeducational private day and boarding school based on two sites in Poole and Bournemouth, Dorset on the southern coast of England. The prep school (ages 2–11) is located in Poole and the senior school (ages 11–18) in the Southbourne West-Boscombe East-Pokesdown South area. The school is the only coeducational independent school in the Bournemouth and Poole area. The school operates on split sites as a result of a merger between two independent schools, Wentworth College (Bournemouth) and Uplands School (Poole). The prep school is situated at the old Uplands site and the senior school at Wentworth. History Bournemouth Collegiate School was created in September 2009 by the merger of Wentworth College in Bournemouth and Uplands School in Poole. Wentworth College had joined the United Church Schools Trust in August 2008, and Uplands School in June 2009 – it was UCST that brought the two together to create a new school. Uplands School Uplands was an independent school in Poole founded in 1895 as Bourne School for Girls. It moved to various places before and after World War II and later became coeducational. Wentworth College Wentworth College was previously an independent day and boarding school for girls. It took its name from Wentworth Lodge, the building it occupied. The school was founded by the merger of two schools during the 1960s. Milton Mount College was founded in 1871 with Selina Hadland as head. It was originally sited in Milton-next-Gravesend near Gravesend Kent, and then relocated to Worth Park near Crawley. The second, Bournemouth Collegiate School, was established in 1899 in the town centre and moved to Wentworth Lodge in 1923. Due to falling pupil numbers, Wentworth became coeducational in 2008. It went into administration in July 2008, which prompted the UCST to propose the merger. Prep School The preparatory department is located at the former Uplands School site in Poole. Boarding The boarding facilities are built around the old Wentworth Lodge, in which Wentworth College was housed and which were once part of the Portman Estate. The house, built in 1872, was used by Viscount Portman as a summer residence for around six weeks every year.

Bournemouth Community Hebrew Congregation

The Bournemouth Community Hebrew Congregation is an Orthodox Jewish congregation and synagogue, located in Wootton Gardens, Lansdowne, Bournemouth, Dorset, England, in the United Kingdom. The congregation was formed in 1905 and worships in the Ashkenazi rite. The rabbi of the congregation is Adrian Jesner. History The congregation was formed in 1905. Albert Samuel, brother of Liberal politician Herbert Samuel, laid the cornerstone of the current synagogue, which was built in 1911. The synagogue was listed as a Grade II building in 2019. In February 2023 it was reported that the current synagogue building will be sold in order to move to smaller premises. Architecture The curvilinear roof line and window shape reveal what would have been a very contemporary Art Nouveau take on the Moorish Revival style that was extremely popular for synagogues. The squat tower with its square dome and "attractive interlocking window arcade" mark the original entrance. The horseshoe-arched windows to the left are also part of the original facade. The new entrance, to the right of the tower, and barrel-vaulted interior with a ladies' gallery is the result of a 1957–62 expansion. The Torah Ark, also dating from the 1960s, is a mosaic design by craftsmen from Florence intended to echo the Temple of Solomon by featuring the Biblical columns Boaz and Jachin.

Bournemouth International Centre

The Bournemouth International Centre (commonly known as the BIC ) in Bournemouth, Dorset, was opened in September 1984. It is one of the largest venues for conferences, exhibitions, entertainment and events in southern England. Additionally, it is well known for hosting national conferences of major British political parties and trade unions. In June 2022, it was announced that the building would undergo a £1.8 million refurbishment. Conferences The BIC has hosted national conferences of political parties and trade unions. Neil Kinnock attacked the militant tendency at the Labour Party Conference there in 1985, and Margaret Thatcher made her last Conservative Party Conference speech at the venue in 1990. In 2007 it hosted the 6th UK International Salsa Congress from October 12th to 14th. In recent years, both Labour and the Conservatives have held their conferences at larger venues in urban centres, such as Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool, but the BIC has continued to host the Liberal Democrat Conference. In 2025, the BIC will also host the Green Party of England and Wales autumn conference. Venues At opening, it comprised two halls, the Windsor Hall and the Tregonwell Hall as well as a leisure swimming pool which has since been closed to provide further conference and exhibition space. The venue's Windsor Hall has a concert capacity of 6,500 (standing) or 4,000 (seated) and is one of the bigger indoor music venues in England, often included on the arena tours of major artists. This hall has the largest tensile grid in Europe – a tensioned mesh comprising 30 miles of steel wire hung above the stage which can suspend approximately 90 tonnes of weight. In 1990, the circular Purbeck Hall was added at a cost of £6 million. The Solent Hall can house exhibitions or hold up to 2,000 people for standing music concerts. As part of a refurbishment costing £22 million, this hall controversially replaced the popular swimming pool and wave machine in 2004 after an unsuccessful campaign to save the facility. Managed by social enterprise BH Live in partnership with Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council, the BIC is operated alongside its sister venue, The Pavilion Theatre and Ballroom.

Bournemouth West railway station

Bournemouth West was a railway station in Bournemouth, Dorset, England which closed in 1965. History The station opened on 15 June 1874. It was the southern terminus for many services off the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway, as well as being the terminus for trains from London Waterloo and local services. The station was closed during the electrification of the London Waterloo to Bournemouth line. Originally, the closure was meant to be temporary, pending completion of the project, as it was thought that Bournemouth Central did not have the capacity to handle all of Bournemouth's trains. Experience during the temporary closure showed that the newly electrified Central station could handle all the trains in the town, so the closure became permanent. Passenger trains were withdrawn from 6 September 1965. A substitute bus service was provided until its official closure on 4 October 1965; the station was later demolished. Accidents and incidents On 17 August 1956 a rake of carriages ran away colliding with another rake of carriages and a parcels van. The van was pushed into the parcels office bringing down its roof crushing two cars. The site today The former station site is now occupied by a car park and the A338 Wessex Way. Bournemouth Traincare Depot occupies the approach to the station. References External sources Bournemouth West SEMG online The station on navigable 1946 O. S. map
Bournville College

Bournville College is a further education college based in Longbridge, Birmingham, England. The college offers courses that include A Levels, BTECs, NVQs, apprenticeships, and bespoke qualifications. History The college was established in 1913 by George Cadbury to cater for education for the local population that included the workforce of the nearby Cadbury chocolate and confectionery factory, and was named Bournville College from 1949. In 1972, the college was relocated to Bristol Road (52.42914°N 1.95266°W﻿ / 52.42914; -1.95266), into premises that had been part of City of Birmingham Polytechnic. Further expansion took place during the 1970s, and in 2011, the college occupied its new purpose-built campus in Longbridge with a capacity for 15,000 students and 4.2 acres of grounds on the site of the former MG Rover automobile factory that closed in 2005. In 2014, the college announced it would open a training centre in India as part of plans to strengthen ties between Britain and India. As Bournville already have an office in Kolkata, they plan to open the £500,000 centre in the same city. In 2015, the college created controversy when it purchased Manchester United season tickets before cutting more than 100 jobs, held a £170,000 centenary event, a £35,000 staff party, and paid consultants £2.8m over three years. In August 2017, Bournville College merged with South and City College Birmingham. Though two separate colleges merged to create one single college, Bournville College has still kept its original name. The college has a total of six campuses, in Digbeth, Longbridge, Bordesley Green, Handsworth, Small Heath, and Hall Green.
