Scarborough Market Hall

Scarborough Market Hall is a historic building in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, in England. Markets were held in various locations in Scarborough, but by the early 19th century, the main location was Newborough, which was considered inconvenient. In 1853, a private company built a market hall on St Helen's Square, and this gradually replaced the other markets, the last street market being that of the corn merchants on King Street, running until the 1950s. The building was designed by J. Irvine in the neoclassical style, though the Victoria County History describes it as being of "no architectural distinction". The building was grade II listed in 1973. In 2017, the market was restored and a mezzanine was added, at a total cost of £2 million. The market hall is built of stone, with a rusticated basement. There are seven bays, the outer bays flanked by rusticated pilasters. The other bays contain round-headed arches with three-quarter Doric columns, the outer ones with doorways and the others with windows. Above is a large cornice, and a pediment containing a semicircular window. The outer bays contain circular motifs. Flanking the hall are lower wings containing round-headed blind arches. Inside are a variety of fixed and temporary stalls, selling a wide variety of goods and also hosting four cafes. Under the main hall is a vaulted basement with additional stalls.

St James' Church, West End

St James' Church in West End, Hampshire is an Anglican parish church in the Borough of Eastleigh. The church building is grade II listed. History The church was founded on 18 April 1836 with the first church building being completed in 1838. It was constructed on top of a hill, made of brick with lead ridging, iron and lead gutters, rainwater pipes and two iron chimneys. The building had a tower with a brick spire, which had an iron bar on top but no lightning conductor. At 5pm on 12th June 1875, the spire was struck by lightning and needed to be demolished, but the tower and the rest of the building was unscathed, as was a tree in close proximity to the tower. However, the branches of some trees further away needed to be removed as they had been damaged by stones flying from the lightning-struck spire. To make the tower waterproof following the demolition of the spire, a small hipped roof was added. The original church building was replaced with the current one, which was constructed in 1890. The new structure was designed by Sir Arthur Blomfield in a 15th-century gothic style. The intention was to include a tower at the western end of the church, but this was never built. On 14 February 1983 the church building was listed as a grade II historic building. Footballer Alan Shearer was married in the church in June 1991. References

Weedon Viaduct

Weedon Viaduct is a railway bridge carrying the West Coast Main Line through Weedon Bec in Northamptonshire, England. It was designed by Robert Stephenson for the London and Birmingham Railway and opened in 1838. It is a Grade II listed building. Description The viaduct crosses Church Street and the young River Nene in Weedon Bec, on the outskirts of the village. It was built in stock brick but has been extensively patched with blue brick and dressed with stone. It has five low semi-circular arches with stone springers (the lowest block in the arches). The arches have a 50-foot (15-metre) span, giving a total length of 50 yards (46 metres). It has a roll-moulded stone string course running the length of the bridge above the arches and a brick parapet with stone copings. It terminates in splayed abutments. The viaduct is almost immediately north of Stowe Hill Tunnel near the Watford Gap, where the railway, canal, and ancient and modern roads all take a similar path. Shortly beyond the viaduct, Church Road passes through a low tunnel under the Grand Union Canal. History The viaduct was built for the London and Birmingham Railway, whose chief engineer was Robert Stephenson. It opened with the line in 1838. The viaduct sandwiches Lower Weedon between the railway and the canal. This stretch of railway, including the viaduct, is little altered since it was built. South of Roade Cutting, the line was quadrupled in the 1880s. Stephenson originally bypassed Northampton, but the Northampton loop (opened in 1881) acts as the second pair of tracks between the cutting and Rugby, which negated the need for substantial modification. The viaduct was one of the features illustrated by John Cooke Bourne in his series of lithographs published to mark the opening of the London and Birmingham Railway. Bourne shows the viaduct separating the village from green areas to the east, including the local churchyard which is now the opposite side of the viaduct from the church. Bourne's vantage point was the canal embankment. The viaduct was designated a Grade II listed building in 1987. Listed building status provides legal protection from unauthorised demolition or unsympathetic modification and is applied to structures of historical and architectural importance.

St John's Burlington Methodist Church

St John's Burlington Methodist Church is a historic church in Bridlington, a town in the East Riding of Yorkshire, in England. A Methodist chapel was built in Bridlington in 1775.

Church of Our Lady of Ostrobrama, Bristol

Our Lady of Ostrobrama (Polish: Kościół Matki Bożej Ostrobramskiej), formerly Arley Chapel, is a mid-19th-century church on Arley Hill, Cotham, Bristol, England. Built in 1855 as a Congregational chapel to designs by Foster & Wood, it has been the principal Polish Roman Catholic church in Southwest England since 1968, and is a Grade II listed building. The church serves an estimated 1,200 worshippers and functions as a regional centre for the Polish Catholic Mission. In May 2016 it hosted a gathering of eighty Polish clergy for the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy. Traditional Polish devotions remain prominent; hundreds attend the annual Święconka. The premises also serve the wider diaspora as a polling station for Polish national elections. History Congregational period (1855–1968) The chapel was erected in 1855 at the expense of an anonymous benefactor who stipulated that it carry the name of the Worcestershire village of Arley. Foster & Wood provided an Italianate design on a cruciform plan, dominated by a semicircular portico of four Corinthian columns and a clocktower surmounted by a cupola. Contemporary chronicler John Latimer described it as "the last dissenting chapel of any importance erected in the city in the Italian style". The inaugural service was preached by the Rev. J. Angell James in June 1855, and the building was registered for marriages in November 1856. After more than a century of Congregational worship, the chapel closed in 1968; the remaining congregation united with Christ Church in Cotham. Acquisition by the Polish Catholic Mission (1968–present) Trustees for the Polish community purchased the vacant building in July 1968, and it was re-registered that September as the Polish Church of Our Lady of Mercy. The church was consecrated on 4 August 1968 by Bishops Władysław Rubin and Joseph Rudderham. From 1978 to 2002, the parish was led by Paweł Przybylski, whose extensive repairs earned an award from Bristol City Council. Since 2013, the priest has been Stanisław Łabuda. 2013 fire On 4 November 2013 a fire, believed to have started accidentally by candles, destroyed the side altar and a historic stained-glass window and damaged part of the roof. Two parishioners were treated for smoke inhalation, and the priest, who attempted to put out the fire, was injured. Within six days, volunteers enabled the church to reopen to mark Polish Independence Day on 11 November. Restoration of the interior and a replacement icon of the Gate of Dawn were completed in the following year. Architecture The building is an exemplar of mid-Victorian classicism. Its Bath-stone west front presents a full-height semicircular portico, above which a circular window of four lights illuminates the nave. A timber-framed clerestory runs the length of the unaisled nave, flanked by short transepts and terminating in an apsidal sanctuary.

Trafford Training Centre

Le Trafford Training Centre, plus communément appelé Carrington, est le centre d'entrainement du club de football de Manchester United. Il abrite en plus le centre de formation mancunien. Il ouvre ses portes en 2000, bien que l'ouverture officiel du site soit le 26 juillet 2000, celui-ci était déjà utilisé depuis quelques mois par le club en attendant la fin de la construction du bâtiment principal. Tandis que le centre de formation n'ouvre ses portes qu'en 2002. Il fut construit pour pallier le vieillissement de l'ancien centre d'entrainement, The Cliff. Le complexe est constitué de deux bâtiments, l'un servant à l'acadamie l'autre aux équipes réserves et à l'équipe première, ils sont constitués de : Centre de réadaptation Centre de physiothérapie Centre de massages Pharmacie Piscines d'hydrothérapie. Terrain de basket-ball Sauna Hammam Salles de musculation Un restaurant Salles de conférence Bureaux Salles de classe Studio de télévision servant à la chaine privée du club : MUTV. Il comporte quatorze terrains de taille toutes différentes. En raison des importants moyens mis en œuvre pour contrer les espions ainsi que les médias, le centre est renommé The Carrington Fortress (La forteresse de Carrington) par les médias anglais, nom très bien trouvé, le complexe étant ceinturé par un grillage de 2,4 km de long, plus de 30 000 arbres furent même plantés pour isoler le lieu. Le terrain au total couvre 44 hectares alors qu'à peine 28 soit réellement utilisé par le club. Le reste du territoire est loué à un agriculteur local, et comprend également une petite réserve naturelle, qui est tenue par le club et le Cheshire Wildlife Trust. En avril 2013, Manchester United a annoncé un accord de huit ans sur les droits de dénomination avec Aon plc qui verrait le centre de formation de Trafford renommé Aon Training Complex jusqu'en 2021. L'accord a été estimé à 180 millions de livres sterling (22,5 millions de livres sterling par an), trois fois les dépenses du club pour le complexe d'entraînement lui-même (60 millions de livres sterling). Le 21 septembre 2021, le club annonce des améliorations du centre d'entraînement avec deux nouveaux pavillons pour accueillir de nouvelles infrastructures : bureaux, salles de sport et zones de restauration, des projecteurs, des gradins (accessibles aux handicapés et d'une capacité de 500 personnes). Ces améliorations permettront également un meilleur niveau d'analyse de la part de notre staff puisque de nouvelles techniques d'analyse des performances seront également mises en place.
