Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EFEG34 - Photograph showing volunteers serving real ale drinkers and visitors at Grappenhall Beer Festival in May 2026, held at The Bellhouse, home of the Grappenhall Youth and Community Association, on Bellhouse Lane in Grappenhall, South Warrington, Cheshire. The image shows a long staffed bar with beer mats, pump clips, tasting sheets and festival paperwork in the foreground, while rows of cask beer barrels on stillage line the back of the hall, ready for pouring. Men and women are gathered at the counter and around the room, giving the scene a strong sense of a busy local beer event run by volunteers. According to the organisers and ticket listings, the 2026 Grappenhall Beer Festival took place on Friday 8 and Saturday 9 May 2026 at Grappenhall Community Centre, also known as The Bellhouse, and offered more than 30 real ales and ciders together with live music and hot food. This makes the photograph useful for editorial and commercial searches around real ale festivals, CAMRA style beer events, cask-conditioned beer, local brewing, community fundraising, volunteers, charity-run venues, beer tourism, Warrington social life and traditional British pub and brewing culture. The scene captures the practical side of a local beer festival, with volunteers staffing the serving counter, customers browsing choices, and casks arranged behind the bar in a straightforward temporary taproom setting rather than a permanent pub cellar. Strong concepts include Grappenhall Beer Festival, The Bellhouse, GYCA, Bellhouse Lane, real ale, cask ale, beer festival bar, Warrington, Cheshire, North West England, community centre, charity fundraiser, local brewers, beer lovers, CAMRA supporters, festival volunteers and social gathering. The indoor lighting, casual dress and busy bar atmosphere suggest a welcoming neighbourhood event focused on beer appreciation, fundraising and community spirit.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RBXAPE - Waterloo station also known as London Waterloo, is a central London terminus on the National Rail network in the United Kingdom, in the Waterloo area of the London Borough of Lambeth. It is connected to a London Underground station of the same name and is adjacent to Waterloo East station on the South Eastern Main Line. The station is the terminus of the South West Main Line to Weymouth via Southampton, the West of England main line to Exeter via Salisbury, the Portsmouth Direct line to Portsmouth Harbour which connects with ferry services to the Isle of Wight, and several commuter services around west and south-west London, Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire.
The station was opened in 1848 by the London and South Western Railway, and it replaced the earlier Nine Elms as it was closer to the West End. It was never designed to be a terminus, as the original intention was to continue the line towards the City of London, and consequently the station developed in a haphazard fashion, leading to difficulty finding the correct platform. The station was rebuilt in the early 20th century, opening in 1922, and included the Victory Arch over the main entrance, which commemorated World War I. Waterloo was the last London terminus to provide steam-powered services, which ended in 1967. The station was the London terminus for Eurostar international trains from 1994 until 2007, when they were transferred to St. Pancras.
Waterloo is the busiest railway station in the UK, handling 41 million passengers in the year to March 2022. It is also the UK's largest station in terms of floor space and has the greatest number of platforms.

Warrington Borough Council developed and published their Local Plan in 2014 based on population growth statistics at that time, these figures are now substantially out of date. 55 Councils across the UK have now abandoned their local plans as The Homes & Communities Agency confirmed that housing targets are a guide and not mandatory. Warrington Borough Councils plan includes removing large areas of Greenbelt Land all over the Borough for housing developments and business parks.
All areas will be affected
Appleton, Appleton Thorn, Stretton, Grappenhall, Thelwall, Lymm, Croft and Culcheth for housing developments. New roads will be punched through existing areas to access the new housing estates, for example through Grappenhall Sports Club across the Bridgewater Canal, affecting Stockton Heath and Stockton Lane. Another road is planned across fields at the back of Stretton towards the M56.
These areas are all currently green fields, sports fields and wildlife habitats.
All of these areas have new housing stock built in the last 10 years, surely enough Greenbelt has been lost already. There are enough brownfield sites across Warrington for thousands of houses without having to dig up Greenbelt. The Greenbelt areas are the 'Green Lungs' of Warrington, the trees and plants store carbon and clean the air we breathe. The people of Warrington are now saying 'NO' to losing any more Greenbelt. Our elected representatives need to listen to us. During Covid we all learned how important fresh air and open space is to our survival.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDTB - HMS Belfast is a Town-class light cruiser that was built for the Royal Navy. She is now permanently moored as a museum ship on the River Thames in London and is operated by the Imperial War Museum.
Construction of Belfast, the first ship in the Royal Navy to be named after the capital city of Northern Ireland and one of ten Town-class cruisers, began in December 1936. She was launched on St Patrick's Day 1938. Commissioned in early August 1939 shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War, Belfast was initially part of the British naval blockade against Germany. In November 1939, Belfast struck a German mine and, in spite of fears that she would be scrapped, spent more than two years undergoing extensive repairs. Belfast returned to action in November 1942 with improved firepower, radar equipment, and armour. Belfast saw action escorting Arctic convoys to the Soviet Union during 1943 and in December 1943 played an important role in the Battle of North Cape, assisting in the destruction of the German warship Scharnhorst. In June 1944, Belfast took part in Operation Overlord supporting the Normandy landings. In June 1945, she was redeployed to the Far East to join the British Pacific Fleet, arriving shortly before the end of the Second World War. Belfast saw further combat action in 195052 during the Korean War and underwent an extensive modernisation between 1956 and 1959. A number of further overseas commissions followed before she entered reserve in 1963.
In 1967, efforts were initiated to avert Belfast's expected scrapping and to preserve her as a museum ship. A joint committee of the Imperial War Museum, the National Maritime Museum, and the Ministry of Defence was established and then reported in June 1968 that preservation was practical. In 1971, however, the government decided against preservation, prompting the formation of the private HMS Belfast Trust to campaign for her preservation. The efforts of the Trust were successful

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PJ29WD - Bacharach (pronunciation (help·info), also known as Bacharach am Rhein) is a town in the Mainz-Bingen district in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. It belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde of Rhein-Nahe, whose seat is in Bingen am Rhein, although that town is not within its bounds.
The original name Baccaracus suggests a Celtic origin. Above the town stands Stahleck Castle (Burg Stahleck), now a youth hostel.
Geography
Location
The town lies in the Rhine Gorge, 48 km south of Koblenz.
Constituent communities
Bacharach is divided into several Ortsteile. The outlying centre of Steeg lies in the Steeg Valley (Steeger Tal) off to the side, away from the Rhine. This glen lies between Medenscheid and Neurath to the south and Henschhausen to the north on the heights.
History
In the early 11th century, Bacharach had its first documentary mention. It may have been that as early as the 7th century, the kingly domain passed into Archbishop of Cologne Kunibert's ownership
pointing to this is a Kunibertskapelle (chapel) on the spot where now stands the Wernerkapelle. The Vögte of the Cologne estate were the Elector of the Palatinate, who over time pushed back Cologne's influence.
Caring for and maintaining Bacharach's building monuments, spurred on in the early 20th century by the Rhenish Association for Monument Care and Landscape Preservation (Rheinischer Verein für Denkmalpflege und Landschaftsschutz) which took on the then highly endangered town wall and Stahleck Castle ruin jobs, and the great dedication of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate to the Wernerkapelle have seen to it that Bacharach is still a jewel of the Rheinromantik and a multifaceted documentary site of mediaeval architecture on the Middle Rhine. The Wernerkapelle ruin is under monumental protection and before it a plaque has been placed recalling the inhuman crimes against Jewish residents and also containing a quotation from a prayer by Pope John XXIII for a change in Christians' thinking in their relationship

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2N33030 - At Grappenhall, just four miles from Lewis Carroll's birthplace, cobbled streets lead to a large sandstone church that eclipses the two handsome country pubs that it neighbours. In the churchyard, a group of bellringers point out a snarling sandstone cat set high on the tower above an arched window that they, and many others in the village, believe to be the inspiration for Carroll's cat.
One bellringer tells me that the cat is the mark of one of the stonemasons who built the church. Excitedly, I see that the cat, which is carved from sandstone blackened with age, appears and disappears in the shadows cast by the rolling clouds. But there is no hint of a grin, and, in fact, there isn't much that is cat-like about it. It looks more like an eroded sculpture of a lion.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K7NBNM - A sundial is a horological device that tells the time of day (referred to as civil time in modern usage) when direct sunlight shines by the apparent position of the Sun in the sky. In the narrowest sense of the word, it consists of a flat plate (the dial) and a gnomon, which casts a shadow onto the dial. As the Sun appears to move through the sky, the shadow aligns with different hour-lines, which are marked on the dial to indicate the time of day. The style is the time-telling edge of the gnomon, though a single point or nodus may be used. The gnomon casts a broad shadow
the shadow of the style shows the time. The gnomon may be a rod, wire, or elaborately decorated metal casting. The style must be parallel to the axis of the Earth's rotation for the sundial to be accurate throughout the year. The style's angle from horizontal is equal to the sundial's geographical latitude.
The term sundial can refer to any device that uses the Sun's altitude or azimuth (or both) to show the time. Sundials are valued as decorative objects, metaphors, and objects of intrigue and mathematical study.
The passing of time can be observed by placing a stick in the sand or a nail in a board and placing markers at the edge of a shadow or outlining a shadow at intervals. It is common for inexpensive, mass-produced decorative sundials to have incorrectly aligned gnomons, shadow lengths, and hour-lines, which cannot be adjusted to tell correct time

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3J79C - This close-up documentary stock photograph shows the house name Strathclyde painted in black lettering on a white stone entrance bollard in Stockton Heath, Warrington, Cheshire. The image focuses tightly on the nameplate detail, with the curved top of the gatepost, weathered painted surface, dark grime marks, a circular feature above the lettering and a glimpse of red paving and greenery at the edge of the frame. It is a useful stock image for themes around house names, British suburban property, address identity, domestic architecture, private entrances, local history, postal addressing, home ownership and the small visual details that make older residential streets distinctive. The word Strathclyde has strong Scottish associations, historically used for the west of Scotland region and still widely recognised through place names, institutions and personal memory, giving the image wider relevance beyond Cheshire. In this Warrington setting it may suggest a house name chosen for family, regional, nostalgic or decorative reasons, although the photograph itself does not confirm the origin. Stockton Heath is one of South Warrington's best-known village suburbs, with period housing, shops, restaurants and commuter-belt streets close to the Bridgewater Canal and the A49 London Road corridor. The picture can support features on named houses, suburban identity, affluent Cheshire property, house signs, architectural details, residential streets, local place branding and the British habit of giving homes individual names rather than relying only on a street number. The slightly weathered paint, close crop and readable lettering give the image a plain, observational quality suitable for editorial, property, heritage, lifestyle, geography, genealogy, postal services and local news use. It could also illustrate themes around Scotland in England, migration, family roots, regional identity and the everyday typography found on gateposts, walls and entrance pillars.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3J79H - Close-up documentary stock photograph shows a choked cast iron street drain grid, its slots partly filled with fallen brown leaves, moss, soil and small weeds. The raised lettering on the metalwork reads Dudley & Dowell Ltd and Cradley Heath Staffs, identifying the manufacturer and linking the image to the long industrial history of Black Country foundries and public highway infrastructure. The photograph is useful for editorial use on blocked drains, local council cleansing, gully maintenance, street scene neglect, highways asset management, flood prevention and the everyday infrastructure that only becomes noticed when it fails. The grid appears to have gone uncleared for some time, with organic matter packed into the openings and green growth established around the edges. That visual detail makes the picture particularly relevant to stories about climate resilience, heavier rainfall, flash flooding, surface water drainage, urban runoff and the pressure on local authorities to maintain basic public assets under tight budgets. Cradley Heath, formerly in Staffordshire and now in the West Midlands, was a major centre of chain making, metalworking and iron foundry activity. Specialist manhole and utility cover records identify Dudley & Dowell as a British manufacturer whose covers were made in metal and found in rectangular, circular and square forms, with the firm moving to Cradley Heath in 1933 and later merging with the Brickhouse Group in 1967 to form Brickhouse Dudley. The worn casting, rust, leaf litter and moss give this image both an industrial heritage angle and a current public service angle. It could support features on drainage inspections, highways maintenance backlogs, council budgets, autumn leaf fall, neighbourhood environmental standards, storm overflows, water management, insurance claims, flood warnings, climate adaptation and the practical importance of keeping gullies and road drains clear before intense downpours.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3J7A5 - Documentary stock photograph shows Victoria Square on London Road in Stockton Heath, Warrington, Cheshire, a prominent South Warrington dining and leisure location. The image looks across the A49 London Road junction towards the red brick restaurant buildings, with traffic lights, road signs, pavement seating, street furniture and pedestrians giving the scene a clear sense of local high-street activity. The visible London Road A49 sign, the corner position and the recognisable red brick frontage make it useful for editorial use on Stockton Heath village, Warrington restaurants, suburban dining, hospitality, leisure development, town-centre regeneration and the changing use of British high streets. Victoria Square is promoted as a restaurant and retail development, with Piccolino describing its Stockton Heath site as a fixture of the local dining scene, including an open kitchen, cocktail bar and alfresco terrace. The development has also been described by Williams Tarr as an award-winning 30,000 square foot landmark restaurant and retail scheme, involving facade retention of the original early 1900s building and used by Warrington Council as an exemplar regeneration project. That combination of retained historic character and modern hospitality use gives the image added value for stories about adaptive reuse, conservation-led redevelopment, food and drink businesses, local economies and affluent commuter suburbs. The overcast but bright daylight, patches of blue sky, red brickwork and open junction create a practical editorial image for illustrating South Warrington lifestyle, Cheshire dining, restaurant footfall, evening economy, hospitality recovery, planning, commercial property, traffic and public realm issues. It could also support travel, local news, business, real estate, retail, leisure and tourism features about Stockton Heath as one of Warrington's best-known suburban village centres.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JN6B39 - St John the Evangelist's Church is in Walton, Warrington, Cheshire, England. It was built as a private estate church towards the end of the 19th century but is now an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester and the deanery of Great Budworth. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building
The church was built in 188283 for the brewer Sir Gilbert Greenall of Walton Hall. It was designed by the Lancaster architects Paley and Austin, the cost of its construction being £17,500 (equivalent to £1,880,000 in 2021)
The church is built in red snecked sandstone with Westmorland green slate roofs. Its plan is cruciform with a three-bay nave, north and south transepts, a two-bay chancel, a south vestry, and a south porch. The tower is in four stages with chequerwork in its third stage, a recessed octagonal spire and an octagonal north west stair turret. The porch consists of an oak frame on a 6 feet (2 m) sandstone plinth. The church is in Decorated style
The church was listed at Grade II* on 23 December 1983. Grade II* is the middle of the three gradings designated by English Heritage, and is given to particularly important buildings of more than special interest. The authors of the Buildings of England series describe it as a glorious estate church, exquisitely detailed and composed, and consider that the tower is one of Austin's best

Walton is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Warrington, Cheshire, England. It is located at the southwest edge of the town of Warrington, next to the parish of Stockton Heath. It is also close to Daresbury and Moore, although these are in the neighbouring borough of Halton. Walton is part of the council ward of Hatton, Stretton and Walton.
Walton is divided into Lower Walton and Higher Walton. Higher Walton is south-west of Lower Walton, and is the location of Walton Hall. The estate of Walton Hall and its surrounding gardens, previously owned by the Greenall family, was bought by Warrington Borough Council in 1941 and is now a park with a zoo and municipal golf course
Higher Walton was the site of a railway accident. On 29 June 1867 two trains collided at Walton Junction due to signal error. The collision killed eight people and injured 73

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JKC2HB - The Low Line is a new walking destination for London along the length of the mighty Victorian rail viaducts spanning Bankside, London Bridge and Bermondsey. It connects diverse neighbourhoods and communities in south London, linking existing and new hubs of creativity, entertainment, and industry along its course. The Low Line celebrates the heritage of the railway arches which have been a part of the area for over 150 years, shaping places of interest along the way and unlocking their potential.
The first new sections of the Low Line opened at Old Union Yard Arches and Flat Iron Square and complement established Low Line hubs located at Borough Market, Maltby Street Market, and Spa Terminus. These openings have provided enhanced access, connectivity, and public spaces, as well as improved economic prosperity through repurposing underused or empty arches.
The Low Line was coined by Southwark resident David Stephens. The concept has developed through a group of initial partners including Better Bankside, Blue Bermondsey, Borough Market, Team London Bridge, The Arch Company, and Southwark Council, who are steering the initial scoping, planning and communication of the project.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JHPYE7 - Liverpool South Parkway station is a railway station and bus interchange in the Garston district of Liverpool, England. It serves, via a bus link, Liverpool John Lennon Airport in the neighbouring suburb of Speke, as well as providing an interchange between main line services and the Merseyrail rapid transit/commuter rail network
The station is located towards the southern end of Merseyrail's Northern Line and on the junction of two main lines: the City Line from Liverpool to Manchester via Warrington and the Liverpool branch of the West Coast Main Line to London via Crewe
Allerton Traction Maintenance Depot is situated to the immediate east of the station
The station was built at a crossing point between two railway lines that had until then been served by separate stations. The first was the Cheshire Lines Committee (CLC) line from Liverpool Central to Manchester via Warrington Central, which ran from west to east. The second was the line built by the St Helens Railway from Liverpool Lime Street to Warrington Bank Quay, which crossed from northwest to southeast. The latter route became part of the Liverpool branch of the West Coast Main Line when it was connected to a new route from Crewe via the newly built Runcorn Railway Bridge. The original line to Warrington Bank Quay is now closed to passenger trains. The two lines were served by two separate stations in the area, respectively Garston and Allerton (though the latter was also located in Garston)
The first proposals for an interchange station at Garston were made in the 1960s and 1970s, when the Merseyrail semi-underground network was being planned

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JAGDAH - Mine rescue or mines rescue is the specialised job of rescuing miners and others who have become trapped or injured in underground mines because of mining accidents, roof falls or floods and disasters such as explosions.
Altofts Colliery manager, W.E. Garforth suggested using a gallery to test rescue apparatus and train rescuers in 1899 and one was built at his pit in Altofts West Yorkshire. It cost £13,000. He also suggested the idea of a network of rescue stations. The first British mines rescue station opened at Tankersley in 1902. It was commissioned by the West Yorkshire Coal Mine Owners Association.[8] Its building is grade II listed.
In the United Kingdom a series of disasters in the 19th century brought about Royal Commissions which developed the idea of improving mine safety. The commissions influenced the Coal Mines Act of 1911 which made the provision of rescue stations compulsory. By 1919 there were 43 stations in the UK but as the coal industry declined from the last quarter of the 20th century many were closed, leaving six as of 2013, at Crossgates in Fife, Houghton-le-Spring in Tyne and Wear, Kellingley at Beal in North Yorkshire, Rawdon in Derbyshire, Dinas at Tonypandy in Glamorgan and at Mansfield Woodhouse in Nottinghamshire. The MRS Training centre at Houghton-le-Spring opened in 1913 is one of the six surviving British rescue stations which are operated by MRS Training and Rescue. It is a Grade II listed building.
Mines rescue featured in the 1952 film The Brave Don't Cry which was a testimony to the Knockshinnoch disaster. Mine rescuers have often been recognised in Britain by the award of gallantry medals.
In Britain, mines rescue teams may be called to investigate holes in the ground that have appeared because of land surface subsidence into old mineshafts and mine workings

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PC9XYK - Entrance sign at Stockton Heath Recycling and Household Waste Centre on Sandy Lane in south Warrington, Cheshire, photographed under a cloudy grey sky with the site entrance, waste containers and access road visible beyond. The large Recycle for Warrington sign welcomes visitors and stresses the importance of separating waste into recyclable and non-recyclable material. Visible categories include garden waste, glass, white goods, car batteries, food and drink cans, plastic bottles, furniture, fridges, general waste, soil and rubble, plasterboard, timber, asbestos, clothing and clear glass. A performance panel shows last month's recycling rate at 79 per cent, making the image useful for stories about household waste, council recycling performance, waste sorting, environmental behaviour and local authority services.
The image has strong editorial value because it shows the public-facing edge of municipal waste management rather than a generic recycling symbol. Community recycling centres are where household behaviour, council budgets, environmental targets, vehicle access and public convenience meet. Stockton Heath serves residents in south Warrington and nearby areas, making it relevant to stories about recycling habits, fly-tipping prevention, bulky waste, DIY waste, reuse and keeping recyclable material out of general waste streams.
The site has been part of local debate about recycling centre provision in Warrington, with concerns over potential closure reported in recent years. That gives the photograph wider relevance for coverage of public service savings, environmental infrastructure, access to waste facilities and the impact of council decisions on residents. The overcast weather, functional signage, patched road surface, yard and containers create a documentary image of everyday civic infrastructure in North West England. It can support articles on recycling rates, household waste centres, service delivery, sustainability and climate action.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy P8DCT4 - The William Nuttall Cottage Homes are a good example of a planned development by a charitable benefactor, the sweet manufacturer William Nuttall. He set up a trust to provide 'cottage homes for aged spinsters' and the William Nuttall Trust purchased land in Bennetthorpe from the council on which to build these homes. The almshouses were erected in 1930, until then the area between Bennetthorpe and the racecourse had been relatively undeveloped.
The cottage homes were laid out in the pattern of traditional almshouses of standard size set in communal grounds. The buildings comprise a symmetrical group of 24 two storey homes at the centre of which is a linked terrace of eight dwellings around a central archway. To each side are four pairs of homes, each advancing forwards. The buildings are of red engineering brick with stone and concrete dressings and have either 'Rosemary' plain clay tile or Westmoreland slate roofs. The buildings are not identical but have common features and display typical detailing and materials of the inter-war period. The whole site was bounded by a low brick wall with a central vehicular access and symmetrical pedestrian side access.
The William Nuttall Cottage Homes development remains relatively unchanged and continues to have the use for which it was originally intended. Within the conservation area there are no listed structures but all the buildings are considered to be key unlisted buildings.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy P8DCPG - Bawtry is a small market town and civil parish which lies where the western branch of the Roman Ermine Street crosses the River Idle in the Metropolitan Borough of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, England and meets the old course of the Great North Road. Nearby towns include Gainsborough to the east, Retford to the south south-east, Worksop to the south-west and Doncaster to the north-west. Historically within the West Riding of Yorkshire, it had a population of 3,204 in the UK census of 2001, increasing to 3,573 at the 2011 Census.
Bawtry is located in the metropolitan borough of Doncaster on the border with Nottinghamshire, and is situated between Bircotes and Misson at the conjunction of the A614, A631 and A638 roads. The present A638 was for centuries the Great North Road, and in the 20th century the town was a notorious bottleneck, until it was bypassed in 1965. The county boundary with Nottinghamshire runs just to the south of the town and for this reason the southernmost house on the Great North Road is named 'Number One Yorkshire'.
The town's former prosperity was based on its communications, the River Idle in the days when it was a port, the Great North Road in the coaching era, and the Great Northern Railway.
Bawtry's geographical location is 53° 25' 40 North, 1° 1' West, at an elevation of around 65 feet (20 m) above sea level.
The town is located just south of Doncaster Sheffield Airport, formerly RAF Finningley. Bawtry Hall was home to RAF No.1 Group Bomber Command during and after the Second World War, and became the Headquarters of RAF Strike Command (see RAF Bawtry). From 1989 to 2013 Bawtry Hall operated as a Christian conference centre and a base for several Christian organisations.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JHB6XE - The Young Vic Theatre is a performing arts venue located on The Cut, near the South Bank, in the London Borough of Lambeth.
The Young Vic was established by Frank Dunlop in 1970. Kwame Kwei-Armah has been Artistic Director since February 2018, succeeding David Lan.
History
In the period after World War II, a Young Vic Company was formed in 1946 by director George Devine as an offshoot of the Old Vic Theatre School for the purpose of performing classic plays for audiences aged nine to fifteen.
This was discontinued in 1948 when Devine and the entire faculty resigned from the Old Vic, but in 1969 Frank Dunlop became founder-director of The Young Vic theatre with Scapino, his free adaptation of Molière's The Cheats of Scapin, presented at the new venue as a National Theatre production, opening on 11 September 1970 and starring Jim Dale in the title role with designs by Carl Toms (decor) and Maria Björnson (costumes).
Initially part of the National Theatre, the Young Vic Theatre became an independent body in 1974.
In the words of Laurence Olivier, then director of the National Theatre: Here we think to develop plays for young audiences, an experimental workshop for authors, actors and producers. The aim was to create an accessible theatre which offered high quality at low cost in an informal environment. The aim was to appeal to young audiences, but this time not specifically to children.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JHB6XP - Charing Cross railway station (also known as London Charing Cross)[4] is a central London railway terminus between the Strand and Hungerford Bridge in the City of Westminster. It is the terminus of the South Eastern Main Line to Dover via Ashford. All trains are operated by Southeastern, which provides the majority of commuter and regional services to south-east London and Kent. It is connected to Charing Cross Underground station and is near to Embankment Underground station and Embankment Pier.
The station was originally opened by the South Eastern Railway in 1864. It takes its name from its proximity to the road junction Charing Cross, the notional centre of London from which distances from the city are measured. During the 19th century the station became the main London terminus for continental traffic via boat trains, and served several prestigious international services. It was badly damaged by a roof collapse in 1905 and extensively rebuilt, subsequently becoming an important meeting point for military and government traffic during World War I. By this time, Charing Cross station was seen as out of date by some politicians and proposals were made to replace Hungerford Bridge with a road bridge or road/rail combination, with the station moving to the south bank of the River Thames in the case of a road-only replacement. The station was bombed several times during World War II, and was rebuilt afterwards, re-opening in 1951. In the late 1980s, the station complex was redesigned by Terry Farrell and rebuilt to accommodate a modern office block, now known as Embankment Place.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JHBJPX - City Hall is a building in Southwark, London which previously served as the headquarters of the Greater London Authority (GLA) between July 2002 and December 2021. It is located in the London Borough of Southwark, on the south bank of the River Thames near Tower Bridge. In June 2020, the Greater London Authority started a consultation on proposals to vacate City Hall and move to The Crystal, a GLA-owned property in Newham, at the end of 2021. The decision was confirmed on 3 November 2020 and the GLA vacated City Hall on 2 December 2021. The Southwark location is ultimately owned by the government of Kuwait.
History
City Hall was designed by Norman Foster and was constructed at a cost of £43 million on a site formerly occupied by wharves serving the Pool of London. It opened in July 2002, two years after the Greater London Authority was created, and was leased rather than owned by the Greater London Authority. Despite its name, City Hall is not in and does not serve a city (according to UK law), often adding to the confusion of Greater London with the City of London, which has its headquarters at Guildhall. In June 2011, Mayor Boris Johnson announced that for the duration of the London 2012 Olympic Games, the building would be called London House
The building has an unusual, bulbous shape, purportedly intended to reduce its surface area and thus improve energy efficiency, although the excess energy consumption caused by the exclusive use of glass (in a double facade) overwhelms the benefit of shape. Despite claiming the building demonstrates the potential for a sustainable, virtually non-polluting public building
The building is located on the River Thames in the London Borough of Southwark, as part of the extended pedestrianised South Bank. It forms part of a larger development called More London, including offices and shops. The nearest London Underground and National Rail station is London Bridge

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy MM99Y9 - Chatelherault Country Park is a country park in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, Scotland.
Its name is derived from the French town of Châtellerault, the title Duc de Châtellerault having been granted to James Hamilton, 2nd Earl of Arran in 1548 for his part in arranging the marriage of Mary, Queen of Scots, to Francis, Dauphin of France.
The country park is centred on the former hunting lodge, a folly designed to be seen from the now demolished Hamilton Palace at the end of a broad grass slope forming an avenue with lines of lime trees. The lodge was designed by William Adam and completed in 1734. It comprises two buildings, linked by a gateway, in the form of four pavilions above a garden wall. The north facade was visible from the palace and forms the front of the building. To the rear are formal parterre gardens. The buildings provided kennels, stables and accommodation for hunting parties returning from the woodlands to the south. Adam jokingly referred to his creation as 'The Dogg Kennel'

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H9PM20 - Bridgwater is a market town and civil parish in Somerset, England. At the 2011 census, it had a population of 35,886.
Bridgwater is at the edge of the Somerset Levels, in level and well-wooded country
to the north are the Mendips and to the west the Quantock hills. The town lies along both sides of the River Parrett, 10 miles (16 km) from its mouth, has been a major port and trading centre and maintains a large industrial base. It is linked to Taunton by the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal. Bridgwater is between two junctions of the M5 motorway and Bridgwater railway station is on the main railway line between Bristol and Taunton.
Historically, the town had a politically radical tendency. The Battle of Sedgemoor, where the Monmouth Rebellion was finally crushed in 1685, was fought nearby. Notable buildings include the Church of St Mary and the house in Blake Street, largely restored, which was the birthplace of Admiral Blake in 1598, and is now the Blake Museum. The town has an arts centre and plays host to the annual Bridgwater Guy Fawkes Carnival.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy F7DC5C - A Toby Jug - also sometimes known as a Fillpot (or Philpot) - is a pottery jug in the form of a seated person, or the head of a recognizable person (often an English king). Typically the seated figure is a heavy-set, jovial man holding a mug of beer in one hand and a pipe of tobacco in the other and wearing 18th century attire: a long coat and a tricorn hat. The tricorn hat forms a pouring spout, often with a removable lid, and a handle is attached at the rear. Jugs depicting just the head and shoulders of a figure are also referred to as Toby Jugs, although these should strictly be called Character Jugs

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy ECW4HG - The Church of England parish church of Saint Mary dates from at least 1074. The original church was demolished and completely rebuilt, but both the chancel and the bell tower of the present building contain small amounts of re-used Norman stonework.
The present Early English Gothic chancel was built late in the 12th or early in the 13th century. The tower has a saddleback roof and may have been built in the 13th or 14th century. The present nave was built in 1793 and has a west gallery that was added in 1834.
St. Mary's is now part of the Cherwell Valley Benefice along with five other ecclesiastical parishes: Fritwell, Lower Heyford, Somerton, Souldern and Upper Heyford.
Here is shown, middle window on south side of nave
built in 1792, blocked for many years and then restored with a new stained glass window early in the 21st century.

The present Early English Gothic chancel was built late in the 12th or early in the 13th century. The tower has a saddleback roof and may have been built in the 13th or 14th century. The present nave was built in 1793 and has a west gallery that was added in 1834.
St. Mary's is now part of the Cherwell Valley Benefice along with five other ecclesiastical parishes: Fritwell, Lower Heyford, Somerton, Souldern and Upper Heyford.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DJ7B6T - Misty Miller (born May 10, 1994) is a musician from Wimbledon, England. The young songstress has grown enormously since emerging as a sweet-singing ukulele player when her debut album was released in 2011. But having left college and discovered her own path, Misty has now returned with her own band (guitarist Jak Payne, drummer Dan Lyons and bassist Jack Everett) and two EPs released in 2013 - Next to You and Girlfriend. Her third EP, Sweet Nothing was released through Relentless/Sony in March 2015.
Influenced by the local South London music scene in Brixton, she has matured her sound into something she is far more comfortable in. A strong 60s influence is also evident in the raw vocals, edgy guitar licks and varied verse progressions. Citing the likes of Patti Smith, The Stooges and The Velvet Underground in her eclectic' music taste, this girl goes a long way in capturing the essence of an era of music she adores so much. And, with her debut album set for a July 2015 release, she is just getting started.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DEJMNE - Barrington Court is a Tudor manor house begun around 1538 and completed in the late 1550s, with a vernacular 17th-century stable court (1675), situated in Barrington, near Ilminster, Somerset, England.
The house was owned by several families by 1745 after which it fell into disrepair and was used as a tenant farm. After repair by Alfred Hoare Powell, it was the first house acquired by the National Trust, in 1907, on the recommendation of the antiquarian Canon Hardwicke Rawnsley. In the 1920s the house was renovated, the stable block turned into a residence and several outbuildings, gardens and gateways constructed.
The house was originally surrounded by a medieval deer park and in the 17th century a formal garden was constructed. This had largely disappeared until a new garden was laid out by Gertrude Jekyll in an Arts and Crafts-style in the first half of the 20th century. It now contains walled kitchen gardens, fruit orchards and ornamental gardens.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DEJN4J - White wisteria in full spring flower at Barrington Court, the National Trust property near Ilminster in Somerset, photographed in bright daylight against a clear blue sky. Long racemes of creamy white blossom hang in dense curtains from fresh green foliage, creating a rich seasonal garden image for use in horticulture, travel, heritage, countryside and National Trust features. Barrington Court is known for its formal garden rooms, walled spaces, orchards and productive kitchen garden, with the garden layout shaped in the 1920s by Colonel Arthur Lyle and strongly influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement and the ideas of Gertrude Jekyll. The National Trust highlights the wisteria in the White Garden as a spring spectacle, filling the air with sweet scent during April and May. This photograph is useful for articles about spring gardens, flowering climbers, white garden planting, Wisteria floribunda alba, garden design, Somerset tourism, historic country houses, English gardens and seasonal days out in South West England. The image has strong commercial search value for buyers needing a clean, uplifting botanical subject, with cascading flowers, fresh leaves, sunshine, blue sky and a peaceful country estate setting. It can also illustrate garden visiting, heritage conservation, National Trust membership, plant collections, romantic planting schemes, cottage garden style, formal garden design, scented plants, spring blossom, pollinator friendly flowers and ornamental climbers. The absence of people keeps the composition flexible for calendars, magazines, websites, brochures, gardening blogs, travel guides and editorial features. The soft white flowers contrast with vivid green leaves and summer-like light, suggesting late spring warmth, fine weather and the short-lived beauty of wisteria season at one of Somerset's notable historic garden destinations.

The scene belongs to the Southend-on-Sea seafront and beachfront leisure strip, a classic Essex seaside setting where amusement arcades, fish and chip shops, pubs, bowling, family attractions and day-trip promenades sit close together. The image is especially useful because it records wide composition, not a generic tourist board view, so it can illustrate real trading frontage, local colour, shop signs, coastal leisure and the everyday economy of a British resort town. Southend has long depended on visitors arriving for the pier, beach, amusements and evening hospitality, and images like this help explain how traditional seaside places continue to balance nostalgia with modern retail, food, drink and entertainment uses. Editorial buyers could use it for stories about coastal regeneration, seaside tourism, amusement arcades, family holidays, local business survival, seasonal employment, consumer spending, waterfront redevelopment, heritage leisure and the social history of British day trips. It also works for commentary on how resort towns present themselves visually, with bright signs, familiar names, glass-fronted arcades, food offers and a dense mixture of leisure uses competing for passing footfall. For SEO and stock search, relevant composite terms include Southend seafront amusement arcade, Essex seaside tourism, British beachfront entertainment, family coastal day out, traditional seaside economy, high street leisure frontage and UK resort town regeneration. The value is in the combination of place-specific caption wording, visible subject matter and practical editorial usefulness. It could support news, magazine, web, travel, council, planning, business, heritage, nostalgia, tourism, consumer affairs and local economy content where a real coastal street scene is needed rather.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H3FKFW - Robins Pie and Mash shop closes after more than 30 years serving Ilford.
Robins Pie and Mash, Chapel Road, Ilford, which is being run by the fifth generation of a family, closed on Saturday.
Owner June Robins said: There is still demand for pie and mash but unfortunately this is not the case in Ilford any more. Customers seem to want a different type of food.
It was a very sad day when we closed. We first opened the branch over 30 years ago but things have become a lot more expensive, especially as we get all our meat from Scotland.
The company, which has recently started supplying frozen meals to the Asda supermarket chain, also has a number of other branches including one in High Street, Wanstead.
Ms Robins added: When we informed our customers we would be shutting they just kept asking why.
I don't think pie and mash is dying out as we have a lot of demand in other areas including at weddings and football games, including West Ham United.
But times are changing and people seem to want universal food such as pizza and burgers. Pie and mash has a limited regional appeal.
Traditionally pie and mash dates back to the 19th century, when Dutch ships delivered live eels, which were used in pies, to Billingsgate Market.
Customer, Paul Scott, of Sandhurst Drive, Goodmayes, added: This is a great shame and customers aren't happy about it especially as there will now be no more pie and mash shops in Ilford.

Robins Pie and Mash, Chapel Road, Ilford, which is being run by the fifth generation of a family, closed on Saturday.
Owner June Robins said: There is still demand for pie and mash but unfortunately this is not the case in Ilford any more. Customers seem to want a different type of food.
It was a very sad day when we closed. We first opened the branch over 30 years ago but things have become a lot more expensive, especially as we get all our meat from Scotland.
The company, which has recently started supplying frozen meals to the Asda supermarket chain, also has a number of other branches including one in High Street, Wanstead.
Ms Robins added: When we informed our customers we would be shutting they just kept asking why.
I don't think pie and mash is dying out as we have a lot of demand in other areas including at weddings and football games, including West Ham United.
But times are changing and people seem to want universal food such as pizza and burgers. Pie and mash has a limited regional appeal.
Traditionally pie and mash dates back to the 19th century, when Dutch ships delivered live eels, which were used in pies, to Billingsgate Market.
Customer, Paul Scott, of Sandhurst Drive, Goodmayes, added: This is a great shame and customers aren't happy about it especially as there will now be no more pie and mash shops in Ilford.

17 is the third Fermat prime, as it is of the form 24 + 1, and it is also a Proth prime. Since 17 is a Fermat prime, regular heptadecagons can be constructed with compass and unmarked ruler. This was proven by Carl Friedrich Gauss. Another consequence of 17 being a Fermat prime is that it is not a Higgs prime for squares or cubes
in fact, it is the smallest prime not to be a Higgs prime for squares, and the smallest not to be a Higgs prime for cubes.
17 is the only positive Genocchi number that is prime, the only negative one being \u22123. It is also the third Stern prime.
As 17 is the least prime factor of the first twelve terms of the Euclid\u2013Mullin sequence, it is the thirteenth term.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
I was a late convert to the Dandy's and their friends/enemies The BJM who I saw live recently.
The band's name is a pun on the name of American pop artist Andy Warhol and originate from Portland, Oregon in 1993. Influences include The Velvet Underground, the Beach Boys and The Rolling Stones.
The band first achieved success in the UK after the release of their second Album 'The Dandy Warhols Come Down' in 1997. The promotional video for this single 'Not If You Were The Last Junkie on Earth' was directed by celebrity fashion photographer David LaChapelle, and it earned them acclaim outside the US.
Along with The Brian Jonestown Massacre (BJM), The Dandy Warhols were the subjects of the 2004 documentary DiG! This film captured a love-hate relationship between both bands, highlighting the interaction of BJM frontman Anton Newcombe and Courtney Taylor. It was recorded over the course of seven years by Ondi Timoner, and won the Documentary Grand Jury Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival.
To get a bit of background to both bands you could do worse than grab this DVD. tell 'em I sent you!
------------------------
The illegal drug trade is a global black market, competing with legal drug trade, dedicated to cultivation, manufacture, distribution and sale of those substances which are subject to drug prohibition laws. Most jurisdictions prohibit trade, except under license, of many types of drugs by drug prohibition laws.
A UN report said the global drug trade generated an estimated US$321.6 billion in 2003. With a world GDP of US$36 trillion in the same year, the illegal drug trade may be estimated as slightly less than 1% of total global commerce. Consumption of illegal drugs is widespread globally.
Cocaine (benzoylmethylecgonine) is a crystalline tropane alkaloid that is obtained from the leaves of the coca plant. The name comes from 'coca' in addition to the alkaloid suffix -ine, forming cocaine. It is a stimulant of the central nervous system, an appetite suppressant, and a topical anesthetic.
For over a thousand years South American indigenous peoples have chewed the leaves of Erythroxylon coca, a plant that contains vital nutrients as well as numerous alkaloids, including cocaine. The coca leaf was, and still is, chewed almost universally by some indigenous communities.
The remains of coca leaves have been found with ancient Peruvian mummies, and pottery from the time period depicts humans with bulged cheeks, indicating the presence of something on which they are chewing. There is also evidence that these cultures used a mixture of coca leaves and saliva as an anesthetic for the performance of trepanation.
When the Spanish arrived in South America, most at first ignored aboriginal claims that the leaf gave them strength and energy, and declared the practice of chewing it the work of the Devil. But after discovering that these claims were true, they legalized and taxed the leaf, taking 10% off the value of each crop.
In 1569, Nicol\u00e1s Monardes described the practice of the natives of chewing a mixture of tobacco and coca leaves to induce 'great contentment'.
Crack is a lower purity form of free-base cocaine and contains sodium bicarbonate as impurity. Freebase and crack are often administered by smoking. The origin of the name is from the crackling sound (hence the onomatopoeic \u201ccrack\u201d) produced when cocaine containing impurities are heated.
The trade north of drugs and south of cash and weapons continues in the Americas regardless of prohibition, cival and military enforcement. As I type this I am listening to the story of dead bodies found near San Fernando in Mexico,Tamaulipas state, the corpses are reportedly those of 58 men and 14 women. It appears to be among the biggest mass graves linked to drug cartel violence to be uncovered in Mexico.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HCYE - The Guildhall and jail on St Peter's Hill in Grantham was commissioned in 1866 by Mayor Thomas Winter after criminal Jesse Dale, who was serving 15 years for stealing, twice walked out of the town's original jail in 1864.
This original Guildhall and jail building stood on the corner of Guildhall Street and High Street and dated from 1787. After Jesse's second escape, the governor at the time William Mayer was sacked and a government inspector condemned the building. The inmates had to be sent to Lincoln. The site of the demolished Guildhall was bought by the Stamford, Boston and Spalding Bank (later Barclays) and is now home to the Goose at the Bank pub.
On the current Guildhall site was an old school The Firs housed in a former town house. This and the adjoining land were bought for £2,100. Lincoln architect William Watkins drew up the design for the new building and the work was carried out Mr Wartnaby, of Little Gonerby, for £7,260.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CF133E - The Grand Pier is a pier in Weston-super-Mare, North Somerset, England. It is situated on the Bristol Channel approximately 18 miles (29 km) south west of Bristol. Here shown are three Sisk construction workers, that have worked on the pier.
Following a fire, which completely destroyed the pavilion, the pier was rebuilt at a cost of £39 million and reopened on 23 October 2010.
at 01:35 BST on 28 July 2008, a fire at the foot of the north tower on the shoreward (eastern) end of the pavilion triggered the privately monitored fire alarm,[10] but the Essex-based alarm monitoring company were unable to contact the key-holder by mobile phone and no further action was taken.[11] It was not until 06:46 BST that the Avon Fire and Rescue Service was notified. It deployed 13 fire engines, special appliances, and more than 85 firefighters to tackle the blaze,[10] but the building was soon destroyed.

Robert Tinker, a Grand Pier employee, was later praised by the fire service as he braved the extreme intensity of the heat from the flames to rush around the side of the building to remove several gas canisters which had been stored within the premises, had these not been removed the fire service claimed that the fire could have been much worse, with the possibility of local residents and traders needing to be evacuated. Preliminary investigations suggested that the fire started due to a number of deep fat fryers which had been located within the area pavilion, however after further investigation this was later ruled out, as was arson. On 22 October 2008 at a news conference held by the fire service, it was announced that the cause of the fire

The many inns on the road, many of which still survive, were staging posts on the coach routes, providing accommodation, stabling for the horses and replacement mounts. However, virtually none of the surviving coaching inns can be seen while driving on the A1, because the modern route now bypasses the towns in which the inns are to be found.
At Alconbury, the Great North Road joined the Old North Road, an older route from London which follows the Roman Ermine Street. Here a milestone records mileages to London via both routes: 65 by the Old North Road and 68 by the Great North Road. The journey has a number of food references. From Alconbury the Great North Road follows the line of Ermine Street north, through Stilton and Stamford as far as Colsterworth (at the A151 junction). Inns on this section include the George at Stamford and the Bell Inn at Stilton, the original sellers of Stilton cheese.
Scotch Corner, in North Yorkshire, marks the point where the traffic for Glasgow and the west of Scotland divides from that for Edinburgh, as it has for hundreds of years before motor traffic. As well as a hotel there have been a variety of homes for the transport caf\u00e9, now a sad motorway services.
The Winchelsea Arms was an inn on a long straight section of the Great North Road near Stretton which was reputed to be a haunt of Dick Turpin. It is now called the Ram Jam ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMLnDuzgkjo ) Inn after a story from those coaching days. A coach passenger undertook to show the landlady the secret of drawing both mild and bitter beer from the same barrel. Two holes were made and she was left with one thumb rammed against one and the other jammed into the other. The trickster then made off.

In the early 1900s, Murdo MacLeod left the village of Keose on the Isle of Lewis bound for South America to work on a Patagonian sheep farm. An expert judge and buyer of livestock, Murdo's employer, Jose Menendez, held him in high esteem. So much so, that on his return to the Isle of Lewis, Murdo was asked to include Menendez in the name of his first-born child. On setting up home in Ropework Cottage, Stornoway, Murdo and wife, Christina thus became parents to Charles Menendez MacLeod.
The tradition continues today.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HCMK - Gt Budworth Village, St Marys Church statue, Great Budworth Cheshire England UK.
The earliest reference to the worshipping community at Great Budworth appears in the Domesday Book of 1086 where we are told of the presence of a priest and so can infer a worshipping community and probably a church building. Of these early days we can only catch glimpses through the mists of time but one point is clear, the Pre-Reformation history of the church is dominated by the Augustinian Canons of Norton Priory, Runcorn. The Canons were given the church and living of Great Budworth in 1130 by William Fitz Nigel, Constable of Chester. Later they received the gift of a third of all the land in the township of Great Budworth from Geoffrey De Dutton, to add to the already substantial holdings of land they had been given by local people, keen to save their souls and those of their loved ones by endowing the Canons in return for burials and perpetual prayers, a common practice in the middle ages. The Canons created the present church and dominated both the religious and economic life of the township. The oldest part of the church, the Lady Chapel, dates from the fourteenth century and most of the rest from the fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries showing that the Canons were very active in keeping the church not only in a good state of preservation, but also in continuing to beautify and modernise it. With the Reformation of the sixteenth century, the highly decorated church of the Augustinian Canons was transformed, and by 1600 it had become a white-washed preaching hall from which a. series of Puritan ministers would, throughout the seventeenth century, preach the Gospel and convert the parish from a religious conservatism to a radical Protestantism.

Linton is a small village in Herefordshire, England, around 5 kilometres (3 mi) east of Ross-on-Wye.
It has a church called St. Mary's, which dates from the 13th century. The spire can be seen when travelling eastwards on the M50 motorway when 2 miles east of junction 4. There is also a village hall, and a post office which opens a few hours each week.
Several activities take place in the village hall: brownies, pilates etc.
Each year, the only pub in the village hosts a charitable event
The festival is organised by a committee responsible for the creation of funds for an increasing number of local charities and good causes. The Landlords of The Alma Inn run the beer tents, providing a range of local and more exotic ales each year. The Alma provides a natural amphitheatre that is the garden to the rear of the pub which is an intimate environment for the notable Blues acts the committee books each year.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
The Sisters of Mercy are an English goth rock band that formed in 1979. After achieving early underground fame in UK, the band had their commercial breakthrough in mid-1980s and sustained it until the early 1990s, when they stopped releasing new recorded output as a strike against their record company. Currently, the band is a touring outfit only.
Their live performances featured many cover versions: among those, a medley consisting of 'Sister Ray' (by Velvet Underground), 'Ghostrider' (by Suicide) and 'Louie Louie' (by Richard Berry) became a live staple. Only three of them, The Stooges' '1969', The Rolling Stones' 'Gimme Shelter' and Hot Chocolate's 'Emma' were eventually recorded and released on Sisters records (all as b-sides).
In late 1983, following this highly successful 'Temple of Love' single, the band signed a contract with major record label WEA.
The group has released three original studio albums, of which the last was released in 1990. Each album was recorded by a different line-up
singer and songwriter Andrew Eldritch and the drum machines called Doktor Avalanche are the only points of continuity among the line-ups. Eldritch and Avalanche were also involved in The Sisterhood, a side-project connected with Eldritch's dispute with former members.
The group ceased recording activity in 1993, when they went on strike against their record company Time Warner, which they accused of withholding royalties and of incompetence. Although Time Warner eventually let the band go in 1997, they have not signed to another label, and have chosen not to use an independent label, despite showcasing numerous new songs in their live sets.
This image was shot in a temple in late evening. The deep orange glow of the sun is made even warmer by the sienna coloured and textured walls. It reminded me of the final temple scene in Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now.
Willard is brought before Kurtz in the darkened temple, where Kurtz derides him as 'an errand boy, sent by grocery clerks to collect a bill'. Bound to a post, Willard watches helplessly as Kurtz drops Chef's severed head into his lap. After some time in captivity, Willard is released and given the freedom of the compound. Knowing that Willard would not leave, Kurtz lectures him on his theories of war, humanity, and civilization. As Kurtz explains his motives and philosophy while praising the ruthlessness and dedication of the Viet Cong, he asks Willard to tell his son everything about him in the event of his death.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2A9GHW3 - The A1 is the longest numbered road in the United Kingdom, at 410 miles (660 km). It connects London, the capital of England, with Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland. It passes through or near north London, Hatfield, Welwyn Garden City, Stevenage, Baldock, Letchworth Garden City, Biggleswade, St Neots, Huntingdon, Peterborough, Stamford, Grantham, Newark-on-Trent, Retford, Doncaster, Pontefract, York, Wetherby, Ripon, Darlington, Durham, Sunderland, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne, Morpeth, Alnwick and Berwick-upon-Tweed.
It was designated by the Ministry of Transport in 1921, and for much of its route it followed various branches of the historic Great North Road, the main deviation being between Boroughbridge and Darlington. The course of the A1 has changed where towns or villages have been bypassed, and where new alignments have taken a slightly different route.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H9PM1Y - Bridgwater is a market town and civil parish in Somerset, England. At the 2011 census, it had a population of 35,886.
Bridgwater is at the edge of the Somerset Levels, in level and well-wooded country
to the north are the Mendips and to the west the Quantock hills. The town lies along both sides of the River Parrett, 10 miles (16 km) from its mouth, has been a major port and trading centre and maintains a large industrial base. It is linked to Taunton by the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal. Bridgwater is between two junctions of the M5 motorway and Bridgwater railway station is on the main railway line between Bristol and Taunton.
Historically, the town had a politically radical tendency. The Battle of Sedgemoor, where the Monmouth Rebellion was finally crushed in 1685, was fought nearby. Notable buildings include the Church of St Mary and the house in Blake Street, largely restored, which was the birthplace of Admiral Blake in 1598, and is now the Blake Museum. The town has an arts centre and plays host to the annual Bridgwater Guy Fawkes Carnival.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HCNH - The stem of Lymm Cross is supported by four pillars and surmounted by gables and finials bearing the legends Save Time', Think of the Last' and We are a Shadow'. There are also three sundials on the West, South and East faces.
Crosses were originally there to remind people of their commitment to God - with the name and sometimes the shape of the structures clearly a reference to Christ's crucifixion.
They have also had many practical uses such as road and boundary markers, memorials and preaching places.
However, the purpose of the one at Lymm is a mystery. Many have commented that it resembles a market cross in a market square but there is no evidence that there has ever been a market there.
Others have suggested it used to be a place of worship before the village had its own church.
Joe added: It is a focal point of the village where everything happens. It is where the town crier does his proclamations and it is a common meeting point.
I recently did some history talks for local schools and all the children knew The Cross and had all played on The Cross.
It gives Lymm a sense of identity and is a prominent landmark for people to associate with.
