Pymmes Park

Pymmes Park is located in Edmonton, London and is bordered by the North Circular Road. The park is Metropolitan Open Land, of local importance for nature conservation, and a site of archaeological importance. History The area known as Pymmes Park dates back to 1327 when William Pymme built Pymmes House there. The estate changed hands several times. Thomas Wilson, a statesman, bought the estate in 1579. An inventory made after his death in 1581, and transcribed and published in 1957, includes the furnishings of his house at Pymmes. In 1582 William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley, Lord High Treasurer, purchased the estate which remained in the family until 1801. The Ray family owned the estate from 1808 to 1899. It was then purchased by the local council to provide public open space following an increase in the local population. The park was opened to the public in 1906. Gardens The park contains a Victorian walled garden, bounded on three sides by Grade II-listed walls, containing an ornamental pond, herbaceous borders and bedding plants. Access is on request to a member of the park's staff. Recent history In recent years, the park has undergone major changes due mainly to the widening of the North Circular Road in the 1990s. An application to the Heritage Lottery Fund was successful and £2.8 million was granted for the restoration of the Victorian parkland in a scheme known as the Pymmes Park restoration project. Pymmes Park lake has suffered from severe pollution for many years. In 2014, the London Borough of Enfield announced plans to create a wetland covering 4,000 square metres (43,000 sq ft) to improve the quality of the water entering the lake. Recreation Facilities include a bowls club, tennis courts, multi-use games area, football pitches, children's playground, lake and ornamental pond. The Pymmes Brook Trail follows the approximate course of Pymmes Brook which flows through the park. Since 2011, a weekly 5 kilometres (3.1 miles) Parkrun is held in the park. The park includes a memorial to John Alexander Christie VC. Public transport Silver Street railway station on the London Overground's Weaver line is opposite the park, which is also served by London bus routes: 34, 102, 144, 149, 192, 259, 279, 349 and 444.

Pype Hayes Hall

Pype Hayes Hall ist ein Landhaus im Pype’Hayes-Gebiet von Erdington, einem Vorort von Birmingham. Das Anwesen des Landhauses bildet den Pype Hayes Park. Früher gehörte das Gebiet zur englischen Grafschaft Warwickshire, wurde dann aber zusammen mit der übrigen Stadt Birmingham 1974 in den neuen Verwaltungsbezirk West Midlands eingegliedert. English Heritage hat das Haus als historisches Bauwerk II. Grades gelistet. Geschichte Die Geschichte der Grundherrschaft von Pype liegt im Dunkeln, aber es scheint, dass die Grundherrschaft zum Witwenbesitz der Dorothy Arden, Tochter und Miterbin von Robert Arden aus Berwood (heute Castle Vale) gehörte. Dorothy war seit etwa 1625 mit Hervey Bagot, dem zweiten Sohn von Sir Hervey Bagot, 1. Baronet, verheiratet. Bagot verleibte dem Anwesen viele Hektar Land ein und ließ um 1630 ein neues Landhaus mit Park bauen. Er lebte mit seiner Gattin 15 Jahre lang in dem Haus und fiel dann 1645 als royalistischer Colonel in der Schlacht von Naseby im englischen Bürgerkrieg. Nachfahren aus verschiedenen Familienzweigen der Bagots lebten über 250 Jahre lang in dem Landhaus. Später wurden Stallungen, die das Baujahr 1762 tragen, hinzugefügt und das Haus Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts wesentlich erweitert und modernisiert. Der Dichter Robert Southey (1774–1843) arbeitete in Pype Hayes Hall an seiner 1833 fertiggestellten Biografie von William Cowper, einem Freund der Familie Bagot. Zwischen 1881 und 1888 verkauften die Bagots etwa 280 Hektar des Anwesens an das Birmingham Tame and Rea Drainage Board zur Schaffung und Erweiterung der Minworth Sewage Works (Kommunale Kläranlage). Das Haus wurde verpachtet und dann 1920 von den Bagots an die Stadt Birmingham verkauft. Die Stadtverwaltung ließ den Park des Landhauses in einen öffentlichen Erholungspark (Pype Hayes Park) umgestalten und das Haus diente verschiedenen sozialen Zwecken. Ab etwa 1949 bis in die 1970er-Jahre war Pype Hayes Hall ein Kinderheim. 2015 kaufte der Immobilienhändler Gerry Poutney das Landhaus und seine Nebengebäude; er kündigte an, sie in ein Hotel mit 60 Betten, Wellnessbereich und Schwimmbad umbauen zu wollen. Morde Am 27. Mai 1974 wurde in Pype Hayes Hall die Kinderschwester Barbara Forrest ermordet. Michael Thornton wurde des Mordes angeklagt, der fast identisch mit einem Mord 157 Jahre zuvor war: Ermordet wurde am 27. Mai 1817 Mary Ashford; der Mörder war damals Abraham Thornton.

Pype Hayes Hall

Pype Hayes Hall is a former mansion house in the Pype Hayes area of Erdington, Birmingham, England. The hall's grounds now form Pype Hayes Park. It was formerly in the historic county of Warwickshire before being transferred into the new county of the West Midlands, along with the rest of the city, in 1974. It has grade II listed status. Early history The history of the Manor of Pype is obscure, however it seems that the Manor was part of the dower of Dorothy Arden, daughter and co-heiress of Robert Arden of Berwood (now Castle Vale), on her marriage in about 1625 to Hervey Bagot, second son of Sir Hervey Bagot, 1st Baronet. Bagot enclosed many acres of land and in about 1630 built the new mansion house and park. He lived in the house for 15 years before being killed at the Battle of Naseby in 1645 as a Royalist Colonel in the Civil War. Members of junior branches of the Bagot family continued to live at the Hall for over 250 years. Later additions to the property include the stable block which bears the date 1762 and the house was much enlarged and improved in the mid 19th century. The poet Robert Southey (1774–1843) worked at the Hall on his 1833 biography of William Cowper, a friend of the Bagots. Between 1881 and 1888 the Bagots sold around 700 acres (2.8 km2) of the estate to Birmingham Tame and Rea Drainage Board for the creation and expansion of the Minworth Sewage Works. The house was let out to tenants before eventually being sold by the Bagots in 1920 to the City of Birmingham. The City Council adapted the park (Pype Hayes Park) for public recreation and the Hall has since been put to various public social uses. Twentieth century Pype Hayes was run as a residential children's home from around 1949 to the 1970s and 1980s. In May 1974 the body of Barbara Forrest, a child-care worker, was found in the grounds of Pype Hayes. After a long police investigation, Michael Thornton was identified as a suspect and interviewed by senior detectives. Thornton worked at the same children’s home as Barbara and was eventually charged with her murder. However, Thornton was acquitted at trial after a judge heard there was no evidence to link him with the murder. The press noted that the death of Barbara Forrest shared many similarities with the murder of Mary Ashford, which took place 157 years earlier. Amongst other things, the men accused of killing the women shared the surname Thornton. Twenty-first century In 2015, the hall and outbuildings were purchased by property developer Gerry Poutney, who announced plans to restore them for use as a 60-bed hotel, spa and swimming pool.

Pype Hayes Hall

Pype Hayes Hall est une ancienne maison de maître dans le quartier Pype Hayes d'Erdington, Birmingham, Angleterre. Le terrain de la maison forme maintenant le parc Pype Hayes. Il se trouvait autrefois dans le comté historique du Warwickshire avant d'être transféré dans le nouveau comté des West Midlands, avec le reste de la ville, en 1974. Il a le statut de monument classé de catégorie II. Histoire L'histoire du Manoir de Pype est obscure, cependant il semble que le Manoir fait partie de la dot de Dorothy Arden, fille et cohéritière de Robert Arden de Berwood (aujourd'hui Castle Vale), lors de son mariage vers 1625 avec Hervey Bagot, deuxième fils de Hervey Bagot, 1er baronnet. Bagot entoure de nombreux acres de terrain et vers 1630 construit la nouvelle maison de maître et le parc. Il vit dans la maison pendant 15 ans avant d'être tué à la bataille de Naseby en 1645 où il est colonel royaliste pendant la guerre civile. Les membres des branches cadettes de la famille Bagot continuent à vivre au manoir pendant plus de 250 ans. Les ajouts ultérieurs à la propriété comprennent l'écurie qui porte la date de 1762 et la maison est considérablement agrandie et améliorée au milieu du XIXe siècle. Le poète Robert Southey (1774–1843) travaille au manoir sur sa biographie de 1833 de William Cowper, un ami des Bagot. Entre 1881 et 1888, les Bagot vendent environ 700 acres du domaine à Birmingham Tame and Rea Drainage Board pour la création et l'agrandissement du Minworth Sewage Works. La maison est louée à des locataires avant d'être finalement vendue par les Bagots en 1920 à la ville de Birmingham. Le conseil municipal adapte le parc (Pype Hayes Park) pour les loisirs publics et la maison est depuis affectée à diverses utilisations sociales publiques. Actualité Pype Hayes est géré comme un foyer résidentiel pour enfants d'environ 1949 aux années 1970. En 2015, le manoir et les dépendances sont achetés par le promoteur immobilier Gerry Poutney, qui annonce son intention de les restaurer pour en faire un hôtel de 60 lits, un spa et une piscine.

Pype Hayes Park

Pype Hayes Park is a park in Birmingham, England. The park is part of the Westminster constituency of Birmingham Erdington and straddles the boundary between the Birmingham City Council wards of Pype Hayes and Erdington. It borders the Pitts Farm estate as well as the Paget and Pype Hayes estates. The park is a popular site for dog walkers in the area. History The park originates from the estate of Henry de Pipe, who owned a notable portion of land surrounding the village of Erdington in the 14th century. On the grounds of the site he built the Manor of Pipe (Now called Pype Hayes Hall) which received a Grade II listed status in 1952. The park was formerly the home of an annual Bonfire Night celebration, however this was stopped in 2015 after over 50 years of running due to a lack of funding, with the bonfire at the event having been cancelled in 2011 as the council struggled to find the £60,000 necessary. The park has frequently been targeted by travellers. Features The park is notable for forming part of the southern boundary of Sutton Coldfield, which runs along the northern boundary of the park. Along the northern boundary runs Plants Brook, a tributary of the River Tame. The park is also notable for the pond at its centre, with Mallard Ducks, Canada Geese, and Mute Swans being among the animals which reside around it. The park has an extensive wooded portion across the northern half. Next to Pype Hayes Hall is a maintained garden, which incorporates flower beds and dwarf yew hedges. The site also contains 4 tennis courts and a children's playground, with a car park serving both at the main entrance, and the National Cycle Network route 534 runs through the park. Incidents The park is noted for the unsolved murders of Mary Ashford in 1817 and Barbara Forrest in 1974, which shared a striking number of similarities. The park has also seen a number of other serious incidents, with an 18-year-old man stabbed in the chest and back in July 2022, the 2010 running of the Bonfire Night event saw the sexual assault of a teenage girl, two people were pulled from the pond in critical condition in separate incidents on 18 and 19 September 2020, various incidents of people being run over near the park, and the death of a teenager after a van hit a tree on the border of the park in 2008. The woman pulled from the pond on 19 September later died at the Heartlands Hospital. There was a large police presence opposite to the park in February 2023 after a fight broke out on a coach of Aston Villa fans, with half a dozen people being pepper sprayed and a man charged with three accounts of assaulting a police officer. Accidental ban on dogs On 13 September 2022, a sign appeared at the entrance to the park claiming the park was a dog free area, sparking widespread indignation amongst the community. The following day, Birmingham City Council said that the sign was a "mistake" and that dogs were not supposed to be banned from the park, with a spokesperson stating that any incorrect signage would be removed at the earliest possible opportunity.
