St Aldhelm's Church, Poole

St Aldhelm's Church is a Grade II* listed Gothic Revival Anglican church in the Branksome area of Poole, Dorset, England. It is dedicated to Saint Aldhelm, the abbot of Malmesbury Abbey who became first Bishop of Sherborne in the early 8th century. History Rev. Alexander Morden-Bennett, first vicar of St Peter's Church, Bournemouth, began to evangelise to pottery workers in the area around 1875. He established St. Aldhelm's School near the Carter pottery, which was used as a mission church on Sundays. The parish of All Saints, Branksome, took charge of the mission upon its establishment in 1877, and its third vicar, Rev. C.G. Doyne, initiated construction of the permanent church in Bourne Valley starting in 1892. St. Aldhelm's became its own parish on 30 December 1930. Architecture The land upon which the church stands was donated by R.J. Bates, and the Decorated Style design was provided by George Frederick Bodley and Thomas Garner. The first part of the church, from the east end to about two thirds of its present length, was dedicated by John Wordsworth, Bishop of Salisbury, on 11 July 1894, and the church was expanded to its current footprint in 1912, dedicated in 29 June by Bishop Frederick Ridgeway. The exterior is of ashlar work in Bath stone, also used in the pillars and windows. The stained glass windows in the east and south walls were produced by Burlison and Grylls of London, and the west wall from C.E. Kempe & Co. Popular culture Television producer David Croft named the church in Dad's Army after St. Aldhelm's as he was born in Poole and attended the church as a boy.

Boynton Hall

Boynton Hall est une maison de campagne dans le village de Boynton près de Bridlington, East Yorkshire, Angleterre. C'est un bâtiment classé Grade I. Construite à l'origine à la fin du XVIe siècle, la maison est remaniée à plusieurs reprises depuis. Elle est construite en briques rouges avec des pansements en pierre et un toit en ardoise, à l'origine sur un plan en H, mais depuis comblé à l'avant. À l'origine un bâtiment de deux étages, c'est maintenant un bâtiment de trois étages avec une façade de 7 travées. Les 5 travées centrales sont légèrement en saillie et présentent une travée polygonale à 3 fenêtres. Le manoir se trouve dans un parc associé, avec un jardin clos et la folie du temple Carnaby (connue localement sous le nom de Pepperpot) . D'autres bâtiments, tels que la laiterie, le pigeonnier et le lodge, sont des bâtiments classés Grade II . Histoire La maison est acquise en 1549 par William Strickland (navigateur) (en) de Marske, qui l'agrandit en un bâtiment en forme de H avec un hall central. Strickland est réputé pour avoir navigué en Amérique avec Sébastien Cabot et avoir introduit la dinde en Angleterre et est deux fois député de Scarborough. Elle passe à son petit-fils, le parlementaire William Strickland (1er baronnet) qui est député de Hedon au Long Parlement de 1640 à 1653, puis via William Strickland (3e baronnet), à William Strickland (4e baronnet), qui charge Lord Burlington et William Kent d'effectuer des travaux sur le manoir. D'autres modifications sont apportées par le 4e baronnet en 1684. Dans les années 1720, un étage supplémentaire est ajouté avec un nouveau toit en ardoise et dans les années 1760, l'avant de la maison est rempli par l'architecte de York, John Carr (architecte) (en). Le 7e baronnet change son nom en Cholmley en 1865 afin d'hériter des domaines, notamment Howsham Hall, de Nathaniel Cholmley, mais son fils Charles Strickland (8e baronnet) revient au nom de famille traditionnel. La lignée directe Strickland s'éteint en 1938 à la mort de Walter Strickland (9e baronnet) (qui a renoncé au titre et quitté le pays) et le manoir passe à la branche Strickland-Constable de la famille qui le vend dans les années 1950. La maison est ensuite rachetée dans les années 1980 par un membre de la famille, Richard Marriott, et a depuis été restaurée.

Church of St Mary Magdalene, Willen

The Church of St Mary Magdalene is an Anglican church of the Diocese of Oxford. Named after Jesus' companion Mary Magdalene, it is located in the village of Willen, in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. It was completed in 1680 and was designed by the scientist, inventor, and architect Robert Hooke. It was designated as a Grade I listed building in 1966. History The current church stands in the place of an older one that resembled the church in Great Woolston, but without a turret, the two bells belonging to it hanging in arches, as at Little Linford. The church was commissioned and paid for by Richard Busby, the long-serving headmaster of Westminster School, who was also the local Lord of the manor in the village of Willen. The building was designed by former Westminster pupil Robert Hooke, who also supervised its construction. Work on the church was probably carried out during the period 1678–80. The project cost Dr. Busby nearly £5,000, not including the materials taken from the former edifice. George Lipscomb observed that "with good management the church might have been built for a third part of the money". In the 19th century, the building was modified by removing the cupola from the tower and adding an apse at the end of the church's nave. This was a reversal of Hooke's original architectural intention, which was to combine a simple nave with a decorative tower. The Willen parish registers date back to the year 1665.

Roundhouse, Birmingham

The Roundhouse, formerly Corporation Wharf, is a crescent-shaped building located in the city centre of Birmingham, England. Originally used as a local authority depot, stables and stores the building is now in the care of Roundhouse Birmingham, an independent charity created by the National Trust and Canal and River Trust. Roundhouse Birmingham delivers a year-round programme of walks and tours that launched in 2021. Tours include kayaking, cycling, walking and stand up paddleboarding. The Roundhouse is a rare survival of a relatively unaltered 19th century complex of functionally related buildings dating from Birmingham's industrial and civic heyday. The building is Grade II* listed. History A design competition was held by the Corporation of Birmingham in the early 1870s for a depot to be located between the Birmingham Canal and Sheepcote Street. The winning design was from Birmingham architect, William Henry Ward who was also responsible for designing many building in the city, amongst them Great Western Arcade in 1876. The crescent-shaped building was constructed in 1873–1874 with the two gatehouse buildings fronting Sheepcote Street constructed in 1885. Originally named Corporation Wharf the building was built as a local authority depot which took advantage of its strategic location adjacent to the Birmingham Canal and the large railway goods depot for the London and North Western Railway on the Stour Valley Line. The site was arranged to create a highly secure internal storage environment and an external working environment for open air storage, horses and maintenance. The design allowed horse-drawn carts to pass from the lower level outer yard through the enclosed core, via a tunnel and ramp, for the purposes of loading and stock control. The building was in use by the City of Birmingham Engineers Department until the 1980s when it became redundant and the site was subdivided and sold. The site was acquired by British Waterways (now Canal and River Trust) in 2001. In 2017, the Canal and River Trust and National Trust secured enterprise funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to conserve and repurpose the building. The new look Roundhouse housed was an enterprise hub containing a range of lettable spaces aimed at start-ups, cultural organisations and small businesses. Roundhouse Birmingham, a new enterprise and independent charity, acts as both custodians of the building, and operate a range of city tours and experiences from the site - kayaking, cycling, walking and stand up paddleboard tours are all available. In 2022, a restaurant, Jonathans in the Roundhouse, opened on the refurbished site. However this then closed in 2023.
