Sanders Draper School

Sanders Draper is a mixed-gender secondary school for students aged between 11 and 16 located in Hornchurch, London Borough of Havering, UK. In September 2018 Mr Brooks took over as Headteacher and the school joined Success For All Educational Trust (SFAET) and so worked in partnership with Redden Court and Royal Liberty. The school reverted to its historic name of Sanders Draper in September 2021, this followed the drive for this from Headteacher Mr Brooks and Success For All Educational Trust. The school is very keen to celebrate its history and has implemented a house system based on celebrating Havering heroes and the local community have voted on which of the 13 heroes will become the 5 house names. History The school was opened as Suttons Modern Secondary School in 1937. It was built to provide educational facilities for between 950 and 1,100 students. It originally housed boys and girls in different departments with the boys on the southern edge, eventually running as two separate school establishments (one for boys and the other for girls) in 1945. The two "establishments" were amalgamated as one mixed school in 1953. On 24 March 1943, an American volunteer with the RAF, Flying Officer Raimund Sanders Draper deliberately crashed his Spitfire to avoiding hitting the school, after engine failure on take-off from RAF Hornchurch. In 1973 the school was renamed in his honour to Sanders Draper School. In 2014 the Headteacher (John McEachern) made the decision to change the schools name to Sanders School The school reverted to its rightful name of Sanders Draper in September 2021 following the drive for this from the Headteacher Stuart Brooks, SFAET. There was full support from the local community and ex students for this change which is part of the introduction of a new House system which celebrates Havering heroes and the school's rich history.

Sanderson Hotel

The Sanderson Hotel is a hotel on Berners Street, London, built in 1958. History The hotel occupies the site of 54 Berners Street, known for the Berners Street Hoax of 1810 when it was the home of a Mrs Tottenham. The hotel was originally built in 1958 as the new headquarters and showroom for Arthur Sanderson and Sons, manufacturers of wallpaper, fabrics and paint, for the company's centennial. The building was designed by architect Reginald Uren, of the architectural firm, Slater and Uren. The original design allowed for dynamic room configurations. The building surrounds a courtyard with a Japanese garden designed by Philip Hicks. The Sanderson building was listed Grade II* by English Heritage in 1991. After refurbishment by Philippe Starck and Denton Corker Marshall, it was reopened by Morgans Hotel Group as the Sanderson Hotel on 25 April 2000. In 2019 the hotel was sold to Vivion, a real estate firm backed by the Israeli tycoon Amir Dayan. Design features The building was constructed with a modernist steel and glass frontage that is seen in the opening footage of the Danger Man television series. The courtyard garden, situated on top of an underground car park, fronted the wholesale trade sales area to the right; the retail areas were to the left and centre. The courtyard garden, designed by landscape architect Philip Hicks, was recreated for the hotel and has been included on the English Heritage register of Parks and Gardens of Historic Interest; originally open to the sky, it was glazed over in the hotel conversion. The lobby has both lifts and a grand flying staircase which rises against a large backlit stained glass mural masking the lift shafts; this is the largest secular work in glass designed by John Piper, manufactured by his longtime collaborator, Patrick Reyntiens. The first floor was devoted to wallpaper displays and its lengthy retail counter allowed for conversion to a long bar. The second floor was reserved for fabric displays, while the third floor held management offices and an interior design studio. After refurbishment as a hotel, each room had a sleigh bed with a reproduction of the 1895 painting The Cloud by Prince Eugen bolted to the ceiling above, and a pair of penis-shaped dumbbells. The rooms were redesigned in 2014 by Tim Andreas. The hotel's Malaysian-European restaurant Suka was designed by India Mahdavi with furnishings by Tom Dixon. Popular culture In summer 2009, weekly live music sessions in the Sanderson's courtyard called 'Sanderson Predicts' featured new artists, including both Marina & The Diamonds and Little Boots performing before they were commercially successful.

Sandford Parks Lido

Cheltenham Lido is a Grade II Listed heated outdoor swimming pool in Cheltenham, England. The lido consists of a 50-metre main pool (with reserved lanes), a children's pool, and paddling pool. The main pool is heated to 24-26 °C and children's pool to 30 °C. The lido is open from March until October each year for the summer season (heated) and has been open from early November until early February over the winter for cold water swimming since 2021. On 1 April 1996 a charitable trust, Sandford Lido Limited, took over operational control of Sandford Parks Lido signing a 25-year lease with Cheltenham Borough Council. History Sandford Parks Lido was opened on 25 May 1935, beginning with a procession of open-top motor cars travelling from the Municipal Offices to the Lido, carrying the Mayor of Cheltenham and his wife, along with dignitaries from neighbouring cities and towns. The heating of the pool was a unique feature and one of the first tasks of the staff was to stoke the coal fire boiler. As many Lidos in the country remain unheated, first-time visitors to Sandford Parks Lido are often surprised that the pool water is heated. After the opening of indoor swimming facilities in Cheltenham, the future of the Lido came into question. There were times when the Lido would break even or show a slight surplus, however, after a poor summer in 1982 the Lido faced the first calls to close or to sell the site. Lido friends rallied round, a public petition was organised and the Lido was protected for the next few years. By the early 1990s the Lido was under considerable threat again. Cheltenham Borough Council had carried out a feasibility study of the complex including a radar survey of both pools. The radar survey confirmed that both pools were on unstable ground and the repairs had failed. Structurally, they gave the main pool a life expectancy of only ten years. In negotiation with Cheltenham Borough Council, a way forward was developed, and by 1996 a charitable Trust had been formed with members of the Friends of the Lido. On 1 April 1996 the trust took over operational control. The Charity has invested over £370,000 on refurbishment and site improvements since taking control and by 2005, £250,000 had been raised from direct donations. Together with £50,000 from Gloucestershire Environmental Trust with Landfill Tax contributions from Cory Environmental Ltd and a Heritage Lottery Fund grant of £382,500, work was able to commence in September 2006 on the main pool refurbishment project. Following the 2007 United Kingdom floods the opening of the pool was delayed pending confirmation from Severn Trent Water authority that the water supply was clean enough to be used. The pool was finally opened on Wednesday 15 August 2007. Sandford Parks Lido won the Cheltenham Civic Awards for the restoration works. As of 2025, the Lido has been renamed to Cheltenham Lido.

Sandham Memorial Chapel

Sandham Memorial Chapel is in the village of Burghclere, Hampshire, England. It is a Grade I listed, 1920s decorated chapel, designed by Lionel Pearson. The chapel was built to accommodate a series of paintings by the English artist Stanley Spencer. It was commissioned by Mary and John Louis Behrend (1881–1972) as a memorial to Mary's brother, Lieutenant Henry Willoughby Sandham who died of illness contracted in Macedonia after the First World War. The chapel is surrounded by lawns and orchards, with views of Watership Down. It is run by the National Trust and is open to the public. Paintings Spencer's series of seventeen paintings was inspired by his own experiences during the First World War, in which he served as an orderly with the Royal Army Medical Corps, first at Beaufort War Hospital in Bristol, and then on the Macedonian front, where he was subsequently transferred to the infantry. He was influenced by Giotto’s Arena Chapel murals in Padua. He wanted to paint frescoes too, but the environmental conditions were not appropriate. Upon being commissioned to paint the murals for the chapel, Spencer was heard to exclaim “What Ho, Giotto!” The subsequent paintings were commissioned in 1923, with Spencer moving to Burghclere in 1926 to work in situ. The series was completed in 1932. It is dominated by the Resurrection scene behind the altar, in which dozens of British soldiers lay the white wooden crosses that marked their graves at the feet of a distant Christ. The series chronicles Spencer's everyday experiences of the war rather than any scenes of action. When the art historian R. H. Wilenski saw the recently completed sequence, he wrote of his sense "that every one of the thousand memories recorded had been driven into the artist's consciousness like a sharp-pointed nail". Name The Chapel is consecrated as The Oratory of All Saints and only became officially recognised by its colloquial name Sandham Memorial Chapel following the National Trust's takeover of the property. Spencer would refer to it as his "Holy-Box", whilst the architect and patrons would privately refer to it as Spencer's "God-Box". Meanwhile, John and Mary Behrend's children pejoratively called it the "biscuit factory", in response to its "municipal" characteristics. References Bibliography Behrend, George (1965).

Sandhoe Hall

Sandhoe Hall, also once known as Sandhoe House, is a 19th-century country house situated at Sandhoe, Northumberland. It is a Grade II listed building. The Sandhoe estate was owned by the Errington family of nearby Beaufront, but when Henry Errington died childless in 1819, it passed to his great-grandnephew Rowland Stanley of Puddington Hall, Cheshire, son of Sir Thomas Stanley Bt (see Errington baronets). Stanley changed his name to Errington. He was High Sheriff of Northumberland in 1855 and became the 11th Errington Baronet in 1863. In 1850 he commissioned architect John Dobson to rebuild the old house. The south and east fronts are four-bayed with two storeys and alternately gabled attics. The northwest service wing incorporates some of the fabric of the original house. The house had another wing in the 19th century on the left when viewed from the front ( see old photo below ) its outline can be traced on the northwest service wing. It now forms part of a courtyard and stable house. Typically Victorian, its front is offset with a utilitarian design and layout to the northwest servants wing. The original house is described as being in the Elizabethan style with Dobson building chimneys with an Elizabethan height to them but in a Victorian style. It would be interesting to know what the original house looked like. The main entrance gate, built later than the house around 1870, is in a heavy rusticated style with fleur-de-lys cast-iron door furniture and ashlar dressings with Gothic touches- a motto "virtue" appears above the main gate, with pedestrian access gates adjacent. The grounds contain a monument in the form of a cross approximately four metres high. Points of interest in the house include heraldic stained-glass windows and drainpipes with stone carved lions heads above them. The grounds have terraced gardens on the slope the house is situated on, with a large fountain, a tennis court and an ice house.

Sandhurst School

Sandhurst School is a coeducational secondary school located in Sandhurst, Berkshire, England. The headteacher is Gareth Croxon. History The school was opened in 1969. The first headteacher was Bill Dally. He retired from the post in 1982. An extension was added to the school in 1971 to accommodate an additional 200 pupils and a youth wing. In 1984, teachers at the school held a "work-in" in the context of strike action. This was intended to show people how much work teachers do in their own time. In 1986, a siren was installed at the school, to be sounded if a patient escapes from Broadmoor Hospital. As of recently the siren has been decommissioned and does not sound. In 2020, the drama studio roof collapsing meant pupils had to move to temporary classrooms. Previously a community school administered by Bracknell Forest Council, in February 2022 Sandhurst School converted to academy status. It is now sponsored by the Corvus Learning Trust. Ofsted inspections As of 2025, the school's most recent Ofsted inspection was in 2024, with an overall judgement of Good. References External links School Website

Sandon Half Tide Dock

Sandon Half Tide Dock is a half tide dock on the River Mersey, England, and part of the Port of Liverpool. It is situated in the northern dock system in Kirkdale, connected to Huskisson Dock to the north, Wellington Dock to the east and Bramley-Moore Dock to the south. Sandon Dock was situated to the north of Wellington Dock and was accessible via Sandon Half Tide Dock. History Opened in 1851, the site was originally part of both Sandon Dock and Wellington Half Tide Dock, which connected directly to the Mersey via a narrow lock entrance. At the turn of the 20th century, Sandon Dock was redeveloped and an enlarged half tide dock created, with two larger locks built either side of the original entrance. After these access channels were sealed in March 1977, the water quality in the dock was noted to have improved. Between 18 and 21 July 2008, larger vessels participating in the 2008 Tall Ships' Race were berthed here and at neighbouring Wellington Dock. Present The dock is the most southerly of Liverpool's docks within Liverpool Freeport. References External links "Liverpool North Docks diagram". Liverpool 2007.

Sandown Castle

Sandown Castle var et af Henrik 8.'s Device Forts eller "Henrician Castles", der blev bygget i Sandown i North Deal i Kent i England, som forsvarsværker, der skulle beskytte landet mod invasion. Det er sammen med Walmer og Deal Castle bygget til at beskytte den strategisk vigtige kyststrækning - også kendt som The Downs. De tre fæstninger er kendt som Castles of the Downs, og de blev alle færdiggjort i 1540. Sandown var identisk med Walmer Castle og bestod af en rund keep med fire større semirunde bastioner til artilleri og beskyttet af en tør voldgrav. Indgangen havde en vindebro. Sandown Castle var allerede ruin i 1600-tallet, og havet ødelagde andre mure i 1785. Sandown Castle blev repareret og fik en garnison i 1808 under Napoleonskrigene. I 1863 blev det solgt af War Office. I 1882 var en stor del af slottet revet ned for at skaffe byggematerialer. Kysterosion tilføjede yderligere ødelæggelser. Fundamentet på landsiden af fæstningen er bevaret og er åbent for offentligheden, men er beskyttet som Scheduled monument. Referencer Litteratur Colvin, H. M. (ed) (1982).

Sandown Castle (Kent)

Sandown Castle ist eine Festungsruine bei Deal in der Grafschaft Kent in Großbritannien. Die Festung wurde um 1540 als Teil der Küstenbefestigung König Heinrichs VIII. erbaut und sicherte zusammen mit den südlich gelegenen Deal und Walmer Castle den an den The Downs gelegenen Strandabschnitt. Die konzentrisch angelegte Festung bestand ähnlich wie Walmer Castle aus einem Zentralturm und vier diesen umgebenden halbrunden Bastionen. Um die Anlage verlief ein trockener Graben. Durch Küstenerosion durchbrach das Meer 1785 die äußere Grabenmauer, doch noch während der napoleonischen Kriege diente die Anlage als Küstenbefestigung. Um 1900 wurde die Festung durch die Brandung zerstört, die verbliebenen Steine wurden 1989 in einen Betondeich zur Uferbefestigung eingefügt. Nur wenige Steine markieren noch den Grundriss der ehemaligen Festung. Die als Scheduled Monument geschützten Reste der Festung liegen an der A258 nördlich von Deal und sind frei zugänglich.

Sandown Pier

Sandown Pier is a pleasure pier in Sandown, Isle of Wight, England. History Plans for the pier were drawn up in the 1860s and the Sandown Pier Order 1864 was confirmed in Parliament in the Pier and Harbour Orders Confirmation Act 1864 (27 & 28 Vict. c. 93). However, construction did not start until 1876. The first section of the pier measured 360 feet (110 m) and it was opened on 29 May 1878 by Lady Oglander widow of Sir Henry Oglander, 7th Baronet. Work to extend the pier to its full intended length were started in 1894. The new works were badly damaged in a storm on 12 January 1895. On 17 September 1895 the pier reopened following modifications which lengthened it by 545 feet (166 m) giving it a total length overall of 870 feet (270 m). The breadth of the deck was 24 feet (7.3 m) and the head of the pier had an area 107 feet (33 m) by 93 feet (28 m). A landing stage was provided to allow passengers to arrive and depart by steamer. A pavilion to accommodate 400 people was constructed on the head of the pier with an elliptical dome. These works of improvement cost around £10,800 (equivalent to £1,227,800 in 2025). The pier was taken over the Sandown Urban District Council in 1918. In 1934 the pavilion at the shore end of the pier was opened by John Jellicoe, 1st Earl Jellicoe. It had cost £26,000 (equivalent to £1,469,400 in 2025). In August 1989 a fire broke out in the amusement arcade and spread into the theatre causing damage estimated at £2,000,000. However, restoration was undertaken and the pier was reopened for the 1990 summer season. Facilities The pier has a range of indoor amenities at the landward end, and an outdoor funfair and landing stage at the seaward end. There are cafes, a children's play area, an amusement arcade, bowling and an indoor crazy golf course.
