Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3FC8BNM - . Supporters carrying a long ukrainian blue-and-yellow flag is seen in St Peter's Square, Manchester, during a Ukrainian Independence Day gathering and march on Saturday 22 August 2026. Ukraine marks independence on 24 August, commemorating the 1991 declaration that followed the collapse of the Soviet Union
2026 was the thirty-fifth anniversary. Since Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022, Independence Day events in Britain have also become demonstrations of solidarity, remembrance and support for displaced Ukrainians living in the UK. Manchester has hosted repeated rallies, vigils and cultural gatherings, with the blue-and-yellow national flag used both as a symbol of statehood and of resistance to Russian aggression. Carrying a single long flag through a civic square creates a collective visual statement in which many participants physically support the same emblem. The photograph can illustrate diaspora communities, war and peace campaigning, refugees, European security, national identity and Manchester's role as a gathering place for international causes. The photograph also fixes the appearance of the place in the mid-2020s, preserving details that may later disappear through redevelopment, rebranding or changes in regulation. It is suitable for editorial use on social history, local identity, consumer behaviour and the way everyday streets respond to wider economic forces. Search relevance also extends to ukraine, documentary photography, local reporting, public policy and mid-2020s social change. The subject provides a concrete visual reference for editors needing a real location rather than a generic illustration of ukraine. Because the photograph is tied to a specific date, it can later be compared with subsequent changes in signage, ownership, regulation, public use or the surrounding streetscape. It adds a grounded visual reference for culture, policy, economy and place. Useful for dated UK editorial coverage.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3F8YR79 - Panoramic view across Kirschgarten, one of the most picturesque historic squares in the Altstadt or Old Town of Mainz, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. The cobbled pedestrian space is surrounded by an attractive ensemble of colourful traditional houses, including characteristic half-timbered Fachwerk buildings with exposed wooden beams, decorative façades and steeply pitched roofs. At the centre stands the red sandstone Kirschgartenbrunnen, also known as the Marienbrunnen or Virgin Mary's Fountain, an important visual landmark within this compact historic quarter. The fountain was donated to Mainz in 1932 and incorporates a tall sandstone column topped by a figure of the Madonna, while sculpted reliefs decorate the basin. Kirschgarten has been documented as a place name since the Middle Ages and forms part of the dense network of narrow streets, lanes and small squares that give Mainz Altstadt much of its distinctive character. The surrounding buildings demonstrate traditional Rhineland domestic architecture and contribute to one of the city's best-known postcard views. Mainz tourism highlights Kirschgarten for its romantic half-timbered houses, historic setting and fountain, making it a popular stop for visitors exploring the city on foot. The square lies only a short walk from Augustinerstraße and Mainz Cathedral and forms part of the historic centre's concentration of restaurants, cafés, shops and visitor attractions. This wide panoramic photograph emphasises the curved line of colourful façades enclosing the cobbled public space, together with the mixture of restored timber-frame and masonry buildings that survived or were reconstructed within the old quarter. The scene illustrates Mainz's appeal as a cultural and architectural destination on the Rhine, combining historic urban fabric with contemporary tourism and everyday city life in one of southwest Germany's most characterful old-town settings

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3F510YR - Library of Birmingham exterior in Centenary Square, Birmingham, West Midlands, England, UK. The large contemporary public library is one of the city's most recognisable modern civic buildings, with a distinctive layered form, patterned metal lattice facade and gold-coloured rooftop rotunda. Located in Birmingham's central civic and cultural quarter, the library forms a major part of the regenerated Centenary Square area and provides extensive public facilities for reading, study, research, archives, exhibitions and community activity. The building replaced the former Birmingham Central Library and became a prominent symbol of investment in culture, learning and city-centre regeneration. Its architecture and public spaces attract both local users and visitors, while the surrounding square connects it with other important cultural, conference and entertainment venues. This photograph is suitable for editorial coverage of public libraries, modern architecture, civic investment, education, cultural services, urban regeneration, tourism, public realm, local government facilities and Birmingham's changing cityscape. The clear summer conditions show the patterned facade and unusual rooftop forms particularly well.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3ERK5T1 - Dundee Parish Church, St Mary's, stands within the historic City Churches complex in the heart of Dundee city centre. This view shows the imposing stone exterior facing the pedestrianised public space, with people walking across the square beneath a bright blue summer sky. Mature trees soften the urban setting while the large pointed-arch window, buttresses, pinnacles and tower create a strong Gothic profile.
The church occupies the eastern section of Dundee City Churches, a nationally important group whose religious history reaches back to the medieval period. Tradition links the original church on the site with David, Earl of Huntingdon, brother of King William I of Scotland. The present building reflects later rebuilding and restoration following centuries of fire, conflict and change. St Mary's remains an active Church of Scotland place of worship and a prominent architectural landmark close to Dundee High Street, the Overgate shopping centre and other central attractions.
The photograph captures the relationship between historic religious architecture and the modern city. Shoppers, visitors and local residents cross the open paved area, making the church part of everyday Dundee life rather than an isolated monument. Its warm sandstone, tall traceried window and decorative spires contrast with the clear sky and green foliage.
This image is suitable for editorial use illustrating Dundee tourism, Scottish church architecture, Christian heritage, city-centre regeneration, urban public space, historic buildings, places of worship and cultural sightseeing in Tayside. It also represents the continuing role of traditional churches within busy contemporary city centres and the value of preserving prominent historic landmarks for future generations.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EKDAWX - Sunny documentary street photograph shows Market Place in Wigan town centre, Greater Manchester, with pedestrians, benches, pigeons, litter bins, shopfronts and a long black-and-white timber-framed frontage forming the main architectural focus. Visible retailers include Hays Travel and Poundbakery, placing the scene firmly in the everyday economy of a northern English high street rather than a polished heritage postcard. The buildings shown are part of Wigan's historic town-centre fabric: Historic England lists 26-32 Market Place including 1-5 Market Street as Grade II, describing a block of shops with offices above, dated 1904, by Heaton, Ralph and Heaton, combining Edwardian Baroque with sixteenth-century vernacular timber-framing. The adjacent 34 Market Place is also Grade II listed and dates from 1905 as a continuation of the same commercial frontage. The image is useful for editorial features on Wigan, Greater Manchester town centres, retail change, market-town identity, conservation areas, public realm, regeneration, everyday shopping streets, high-street decline and survival, northern architecture, visitor economy and local community life. Wigan's market history reaches back many centuries, with Wigan Local History and Heritage Society noting market rights from 1247 and describing the market as the commercial and social heartbeat of the town for generations. The bright blue sky, scattered cloud, strong daylight and busy square give the scene a lively summer or late spring feel, while the construction crane hints at ongoing redevelopment and change nearby. This combination of listed architecture, active public space, chain retail, local footfall and town-centre renewal makes the photograph suitable for news, planning, travel, heritage, local government, retail, regeneration and social history uses across Wigan, Lancashire and the wider North West of England.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EM1WKK - The Old Wellington and Sinclair's Oyster Bar in Shambles Square, Manchester, England, UK, beneath a blue summer sky. The much-photographed timber-framed Old Wellington stands beside the historic Sinclair's complex, with modern city-centre towers rising behind and crowds filling the pedestrian square. The juxtaposition of black-and-white Tudor-style architecture and contemporary high-rise development makes this one of central Manchester's most distinctive urban views. The buildings were moved and reconstructed as part of the redevelopment around the cathedral and Exchange Square after the 1996 Manchester bombing. The photograph is suitable for editorial coverage of Manchester heritage, historic pubs, British drinking culture, Shambles Square, city-centre tourism, architecture, regeneration, hospitality, outdoor drinking, heritage conservation and the contrast between old and new Manchester. Strong sunshine, blue sky and a busy public realm give the image a lively summer atmosphere and clear travel appeal.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CPAX70 - Sale Town Hall photographed in the town centre of Sale, Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The image shows the historic municipal building with its symmetrical stone facade, central entrance, and clock tower, set behind a small public square lined with mature trees. Originally constructed in the early 20th century, Sale Town Hall served for many years as the administrative centre for the former Sale Borough Council and later Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council following local government reorganisation.
The building reflects Edwardian civic architecture, designed to convey permanence, authority, and civic pride during a period of rapid urban growth in the Manchester suburbs. A statue positioned in the foreground forms part of the wider civic setting, reinforcing the building's role as a focal point for public life, remembrance, and local identity.
Today, Sale Town Hall remains an important landmark within the town, situated close to the Bridgewater Canal and the redeveloped Waterside cultural area. The image captures broader themes of local government heritage, the evolution of municipal buildings, and the continuing presence of historic civic architecture within modern town centres across Britain.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3ECEEBF - Coventry railway station is seen at dusk after rain, with warm station lighting, wet paving and passengers moving through the modern entrance area at Station Square. The image shows the striking red and black redevelopment beside the older rail complex, giving a strong editorial view of everyday public transport, urban regeneration and evening travel in the West Midlands. Coventry station is a major city railway gateway on the West Coast Main Line, used by commuters, students, leisure travellers and visitors moving between London, Birmingham, the wider Midlands and other UK destinations. The reflective paving, grey winter sky, umbrellas, coats and glowing interior lights create a useful atmospheric stock image for rail travel, station access, public realm design, city centre connectivity, sustainable transport, commuting, transport infrastructure and railway investment. Visible passengers, bollards, planters, signage, glass frontage and the station forecourt help place the scene in a real, working urban environment rather than a generic architectural view. The photograph can illustrate stories about Coventry's transport links, railway modernisation, station redevelopment, passenger experience, public transport interchange, city centre regeneration, evening commuting, wet weather travel and investment around station districts. The red framed building and illuminated windows also make the image suitable for articles on contemporary station architecture, post-industrial city renewal, Midlands economic development, rail accessibility and the role of well-connected stations in supporting tourism, employment and university travel. The dusk timing gives extra commercial value for features needing a moody but recognisable British railway image, with enough people present to show scale, movement and daily use without making the scene feel overcrowded.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E6T4DF - . PC David Phillips Hamilton Square Memorial. Photographed on 2 November 2024. The recorded location is Birkenhead, Wirral, Merseyside, England, UK. The photograph records the subject as encountered, including visible signage, architecture, branding, street furniture, landscape, transport, artwork or activity where present. It provides useful contemporary documentary context for editorial coverage of heritage, architecture, culture and local history. The image can support news, feature, travel, heritage and retrospective use, particularly where the place, organisation, object or streetscape changes over time. It also preserves details of the surrounding environment and appearance at the time of photography for future comparison and historical reference. Within the history of ecclesiastical architecture, churches combine worship with architecture, local memory and centuries of community past
Stonework, stained glass, memorials, furnishings and churchyards often record successive periods of rebuilding, Victorian restoration, local benefactors and family past. In relation to urban design, historical context shows that civic spaces often accumulate layers of architecture from different periods while retaining a stable role as meeting places and pedestrian routes. For the story of local history, it is useful to note that cemeteries and memorial landscapes are important sources for genealogy and social history
Headstones, monuments and inscriptions record family networks, occupations, religious traditions and evolving approaches to death and remembrance. Against the 2026 backdrop for ecclesiastical architecture, historic places of worship remain important not only for faith but also for tourism, music, community use and local identity
Images of interiors, memorials and churchyards can support stories about conservation, heritage skills and the continuing reuse of sacred buildings.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E6T4DG - . Hamilton Square Station tower Birkenhead. Photographed on 2 November 2024. The recorded location is Birkenhead, Wirral, Merseyside, England, UK. The photograph records the subject as encountered, including visible signage, architecture, branding, street furniture, landscape, transport, artwork or activity where present. It provides useful contemporary documentary context for editorial coverage of railways, public transport and transport infrastructure. The image can support news, feature, travel, heritage and retrospective use, particularly where the place, organisation, object or streetscape changes over time. It also preserves details of the surrounding environment and appearance at the time of photography for future comparison and historical reference. The background to place-making is that banners, monuments and temporary installations can transform a formal square into a record of particular events or institutional identity. Within the history of railway station, railways transformed British towns from the nineteenth century onwards, concentrating passenger movement around stations while creating new suburbs, goods yards and industrial connections
Station buildings, platforms, signals and rolling stock can date a transport scene as clearly as surrounding architecture. In relation to urban design, historical context shows that buildings are often the most durable evidence of former institutions and businesses
Brickwork, stonework, windows, entrances and signs can survive changes of ownership or use, allowing photography to document architectural style as well as the evolution of a street or district. Current 2026 context around place-making is that city-centre public spaces are increasingly expected to support walking, events, outdoor dining and climate resilience rather than functioning mainly as traffic space. Closely related concepts are place-making, rail transport, passenger railway, and railway station.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RJ3YRD - Buxton Opera House is in The Square, Buxton, Derbyshire, England. It is a 902-seat opera house that hosts the annual Buxton Festival and the International Gilbert and Sullivan Festival, among others, as well as pantomime at Christmas, musicals and other entertainments year-round. Hosting live performances until 1927, the theatre then was used mostly as a cinema until 1976. In 1979, it was refurbished and reopened as a venue for live performance.
The Buxton Opera House was built in 1903 and designed by Frank Matcham, who designed the London Palladium, the London Coliseum and many other theatres throughout the UK. The first production at the theatre was Mrs Willoughby's Kiss. The Opera House ran as a successful theatre, receiving touring companies until 1927, when it was turned into a cinema. Silent films were shown until 1932 when the theatre was wired for sound and could present talkies. The Opera House also became the venue for an annual summer theatre festival from 1936 to 1942, two of them in conjunction with Lilian Baylis and her London-based Old Vic company. People who performed at the opera house include the actor Alec Guinness, the comedians Ken Dodd, Peter Kay, Harry Hill, Sarah Millican and John Bishop, the musical artists Howard Jones, Aled Jones, Leo Sayer and Razorlight, and the ballerina Anna Pavlova.
After the Second World War, the theatre continued to serve primarily as a cinema. The building was designated a Grade II* listed building in 1970. The Opera House gradually fell into disrepair.
In 1979, the building was restored, and an orchestra pit was added to the original Matcham design. Since then, the Opera House has been a full-time venue for stage productions, presenting approximately 450 performances per year

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RG8YTG - Hale is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Halton, Cheshire, England with a population of 1,800. The village is north of the River Mersey, and just to the east of the boundary with Merseyside. It is 2+1⁄2 miles east of Speke in Liverpool, and 4 miles south-west of Widnes. The nearby village of Halebank is to the north-east.
Historically part of Lancashire, until 1 April 1974 the area formed part of the Whiston Rural District.
The population of the parish is stable with a population of 1,898 (2001 census), 1,841 (2011 census) and 1,800 (2021 census).
John Middleton (15781623), the Childe of Hale, was reputed to be nine feet, three inches tall, or 2.8 m. His cottage and grave are located in the village. Just outside St Mary's Church was a wooden carving of the Childe Of Hale that is said to have been life-sized. It was replaced in 2013 by a 3-metre bronze statue by sculptor Diane Gorvin
Middleton was born in the village of Hale, near Liverpool. According to contemporary accounts and his epitaph, he grew to the height of 9 feet 3 inches (2.82 m) and slept with his feet hanging out the window of his house.
Because of his size the landlord and sheriff of Lancashire, Gilbert Ireland, hired him as a bodyguard. When King James I stopped by in 1617 to knight Ireland he heard about Middleton and invited both of them to the court, which they accepted in 1620. Middleton beat the King's champion in wrestling and in doing so broke the man's thumb. He received £20, a large amount of money in those times. Jealous of his wealth, Middleton's companions mugged him or swindled him out of his money while he was returning to Hale. Middleton died impoverished in 1623. He was buried in the cemetery of St Mary's Church in Hale. The epitaph reads, Here lyeth the bodie of John Middleton the Childe of Hale. Nine feet three. Borne 1578 Dyede 1623. He is likely one of the tallest people in history. If these height markings are accurate, he would surpass Robert Wadlow's stature

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RA23AD - This image shows a close-up view of a cast iron street grid cover manufactured by A C Woodrow & Co of London. The grid features a distinctive diamond-shaped layout with raised square studs and embossed lettering reading A C Woodrow & Co and London , identifying the foundry responsible for its production.
Street grids and covers of this type form part of London's historic municipal infrastructure, typically used for drainage, ventilation, or access to underground services beneath pavements and roadways. The robust cast iron construction reflects the emphasis on durability and longevity characteristic of late nineteenth and early twentieth century urban engineering.
The surface displays heavy weathering, rust, and patina from prolonged exposure to foot traffic, vehicles, and the elements. These marks of wear give the grid both functional character and visual interest, highlighting the material history embedded in everyday street furniture.
Photographed tightly to emphasise texture, typography, and geometric design, the image works well as editorial material illustrating British industrial heritage, historic foundry work, and the overlooked details of urban infrastructure that underpin city life in London.

The main point of reference is Ian McKellen star on the Wigan Council walk of fame, Believe Square / Life Centre, The Wiend, Wigan town centre. The wider scene also brings together community identity, place identity, local history, documentary photography, commercial streetscape, shopfront economy, local character, everyday life, changing land use, regional identity, contemporary social history, town-centre economy, retail property, and before-and-after reference. The wider contemporary story combines consumer spending, store closures and how commercial property shifts between retail, leisure and residential use. As a dated visual record of The Wiend, Wigan town centre, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, England, UK, WN1 1BH, the frame retains commercial use and occupation, making it especially useful if new construction subsequently changes the scene. Other useful contextual ideas include historical comparison, public realm, period detail, high-street commerce, small-business culture, street-level trading, bricks-and-mortar business, and brand display. Details involving Centre, Square, Wiend, McKellen, and Wigan make the image more specific than a generic view and strengthen its local or historical value. The period setting at The Wiend, Wigan town centre, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, England, UK, WN1 1BH helps place the main subject within real social and physical surroundings rather than isolating it as an abstract object.

The photograph shows the grand late Georgian civic building in warm light, with its classical stone frontage, arched windows, columns, sculptural roofline and clock-topped dome set behind the bronze memorial to Admiral Horatio Nelson. Exchange Flags is one of Liverpool's most important historic public spaces, closely linked with the city's commercial, maritime, civic and municipal history. The Nelson Monument was unveiled in 1813 and is a Grade II* listed memorial
it was designed by Matthew Cotes Wyatt, with sculpture by Richard Westmacott, and is recognised as Liverpool's first major public sculpture. Liverpool Town Hall, also listed at the highest Grade I level, dates mainly from the mid to late eighteenth century and remains one of the city's finest civic buildings, associated with mayors, council ceremonies, public events, merchants, trade, port history and the development of Liverpool as a major world city. The image is useful for editorial coverage of Liverpool architecture, Georgian civic design, heritage tourism, British municipal history, listed buildings, city centre regeneration, maritime power, naval memory, public sculpture and debates about monuments, empire, slavery, trade and civic identity. The Nelson Monument includes dramatic bronze figures and relief panels, reflecting nineteenth-century commemoration of naval victory, while also carrying uncomfortable historical associations with imperial power and Liverpool's wider trading past. The clear blue sky, decorative street lighting, empty square and formal architecture make this a clean travel, heritage and urban stock image, suitable for stories about Liverpool city breaks, Merseyside tourism, Exchange Flags, historic conservation, civic pride, architecture trails, walking tours and the layered history of one of England's great port cities.

Architect's ratings
Leach Rhodes Walker described us as excellent'
after the successful collaboration. Maple's
knowledge and craftsmanship was excellent
throughout, said LRW's lead project designer,
Ka Yin Man. From when we spoke to sales
about the commercials, to (dealing with) the
design and projects teams, the whole experience
was collaborative. In a post-project interview,
the architects' firm gave us top marks for design
services, project support, meeting deadlines
and the quality of the finished product. Added
Ka Yin: Maple were always helpful, and any
questions were dealt with promptly. Everyone
was very knowledgeable and accommodating.
The end result was even better than expected
The project was one of the first to use the new
dedicated prototype area at Maple's factory in
Stockport. The architects and contractors I & H
Brown Construction were able to view real-life
examples of the bespoke perforated panels and
golden hexagon cut-outs - at actual size. The
prototypes were powder-coated in the specified
colour, and fitted to the display framework using
actual fittings - meaning that any changes to the
design or specification could be made without
it having a major impact on timings or budget

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJGB4T - A bright green sticky note lies on a mottled granite or stone surface, carrying the handwritten message Sorry Everyone! in thick black marker pen. The short phrase is simple, direct and emotionally clear, turning an ordinary piece of stationery into a visual symbol of apology, regret and the acceptance of responsibility. Because the wording is addressed to a group rather than an individual, the image works especially well as a concept for collective apology, public embarrassment, workplace mistakes or a need to make amends after an error has affected several people.
The informal style of the note gives the scene a spontaneous and human quality. It does not look like a polished corporate statement or carefully prepared printed message. Instead, it suggests a quick handwritten response left after something has gone wrong, perhaps in an office, home, classroom or shared environment. That makes the image useful for themes such as accountability, communication breakdown, customer service failure, professional remorse, awkward situations, damaged trust, conflict resolution and the first steps towards rebuilding relationships.
The vivid green paper stands out strongly against the neutral speckled background, helping the note dominate the composition. The exclamation mark adds emphasis and can imply urgency, sincerity, panic, humour or a mixture of all four, depending on the editorial context. The close-up view keeps the focus entirely on the message and allows the photograph to work as a flexible conceptual stock image for articles about leadership errors, social media backlash, reputational damage, personal relationships, team dynamics and saying sorry.
No people are visible and no exterior setting, season or sky can be seen. This gives the image broad versatility, allowing it to illustrate both personal and professional situations where a group apology, expression of remorse or admission of fault is required.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJGB51 - Bright pink sticky note carries the handwritten words Sorry Everyone! in thick black marker, creating a direct visual statement of apology, regret and collective accountability. The informal handwriting, emphatic exclamation mark and vivid colour give the message an immediate, personal quality, as though it has been left quickly after a mistake, misunderstanding or embarrassing incident. Placed on a mottled stone or granite surface, the simple square note becomes the clear focal point of the image.
The wording is deliberately broad and can represent an individual apologising to colleagues, friends, customers, family members, an online audience or the wider public. It may illustrate taking responsibility after an error, acknowledging that other people have been affected, attempting to repair damaged trust or beginning a difficult conversation. The image also works as a metaphor for public relations problems, workplace conflict, customer service failures, social media controversy, leadership mistakes and the need for organisations or individuals to make amends.
Unlike a carefully prepared corporate statement, the handwritten note feels spontaneous and human. Its brevity leaves the cause of the apology unstated, making the photograph adaptable to editorial stories and conceptual features about accountability, remorse, forgiveness, reputation management, emotional intelligence and conflict resolution. The message may be sincere, awkward, humorous or ironic depending on the surrounding context.
The close-up composition, everyday stationery and authentic marker writing provide strong visual simplicity with space around the note for editorial use. The bright pink paper contrasts sharply with the neutral patterned background, helping the apology stand out. No people, exterior setting, season or sky are visible, keeping attention entirely on the message and its emotional meaning.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2ABY9DF - The Theatre Royal Stratford East is a large theatre in Stratford in the London Borough of Newham. Since 1953, it has been the home of the Theatre Workshop company, famously associated with Joan Littlewood.
The theatre was designed by architect James George Buckle, who was commissioned by the actor-manager Charles Dillon in 1884. It is the architect's only surviving work, built on the site of a wheelwright's shop on Salway Road, close to the junction with Angel Lane. It opened on 17 December 1884 with a revival of Richelieu by Edward Bulwer-Lytton. Two years later, Dillon sold it to Albert O'Leary Fredericks, his sister's brother-in-law and one of the original backers of the scheme.
In 1887 the theatre was renamed Theatre Royal and Palace of Varieties and side extensions were added in 1887. The stage was enlarged in 1891, by the original architect. In 1902, Frank Matcham undertook minor improvements to the entrance and foyer. The Theatre reverted to its Theatre Royal Stratford East ('TRSE') name in 1914. A fire on the stage on August Bank Holiday Monday of 1921 did considerable damage to the rear of the theatre. Thankfully the fire happened at midnight, with the safety curtain lowered, saving the auditorium which retains many of its original features to this day. The theatre was closed until January 1922
The theatre came under threat with the construction of the Stratford shopping centre in the 1970s, but was saved by a public campaign and protected in June 1972 by English Heritage with a Grade II* listing. Money remained short, and the manager, Gerry Raffles, only managed redecoration and replacements as cash became available. In 2001, following a successful Heritage Lottery Fund bid, all of the theatre's front of house and backstage areas were refurbished as part of the Olympiad's Stratford Cultural Quarter project

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RK9X6M - . A place-specific photograph captures the physical context of Witherwin Avenue Grappenhall Heys Warrington, Cheshire, North West England, UK, WA4 3DS, in a scene preserved from 2019. The documentary focus is Danger Deep Water sign, in a dangerous pond, Grappenhall Hays. The photograph carries associations with hydraulic control, inland boating, waterborne transport, riverine landscape, lock operation, navigation engineering, industrial waterway heritage, managed watercourse, navigation channel, civil engineering structure, waterway maintenance, and heritage navigation. The wider contemporary story of managed watercourses now includes flood resilience alongside safe public access, while policy and investment increasingly consider maintaining safe navigation. Documentary value is strengthened by the precise setting at Witherwin Avenue Grappenhall Heys Warrington, Cheshire, North West England, UK, WA4 3DS, where even ordinary details of frontage, equipment, signs, traffic or public activity may disappear as the area evolves. The resulting scene connects with river management, working waterway, canal heritage, inland navigation, towpath environment, riparian setting. Other local associations include red sign, notice, warning, deep water countryside. The same setting also brings together boating infrastructure, and waterside infrastructure. Seen from a 2025-onward perspective, ageing lock and bridge infrastructure also connects with flood resilience, volunteer involvement and efforts aimed at adapting old structures to present-day use. The lasting documentary value lies in its record of physical infrastructure, local continuity, community life, signage and branding, and commercial identity as an authentic period reference. For future comparison, the scene preserves historic fabric, movement through the area, social change, everyday services, and planning and redevelopment at this precise location.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy R9GRYH - Bridgwater War Memorial is a Grade II* listed war memorial located on King Square in Bridgwater, Somerset, England, on the site previously occupied by Bridgwater Castle. It was designed by John Angel in the mid-1920s. The green figure of the memorial is allegorical, representing Civilization as a seated female, holding a globe in one hand and with the book of knowledge on her lap.
John Angel sculpted the Angel of Bridgwater. Mounted on a plinth, a female figure of 'Civilisation' lofts the world, which is encircled by emblems of commerce and peace. Under her foot are the demons of war. The throne and figure are backed by relief depictions of Labour, Home, Life and Education. On her lap is a book of laws, and she is surrounded by children. Indeed, given its monumental breadth, the many details in the design, and its metaphorical and iconic form, the sculpture is subject to colorful and variant interpretations and description. The bronze was cast by W Morris Art Bronze Foundry.
At the time, Angel was working four years as assistant to Sir George Frampton, and Frampton's influence is apparent. Figures from the roughly contemporaneous Exeter War Memorial, specifically Peace (also known as Victory) were exhibited by Angel at The Royal Academy in 1922, being exhibited in the courtyard of Burlington House,[8] as were other studies of the Bridgwater War Memorial on several occasions.
On the third step these words are inscribed: IN HONOUR OF THE MEN OF BRIDGWATER WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918
The memorial was unveiled by General the Earl of Cavan then Chief of the Imperial General Staff on 25 September 1924, to commemorate the fallen of World War I. Further names have been added following World War II, the Korean War. Falklands Conflict and the Afghan conflict. It has been characterised as, An exceptionally fine and moving memorial, which forms an important focal point to this fine late Georgian square.

It is not an administrative building but a civic suite, Lord Mayor's parlour and Council chamber
local government administration is centred at the nearby Municipal Buildings. The town hall was built between 1749 and 1754 to a design by John Wood the Elder replacing an earlier town hall nearby. An extension to the north designed by James Wyatt was added in 1785. Following a fire in 1795 the hall was largely rebuilt and a dome designed by Wyatt was built. Minor alterations have subsequently been made. The streets surrounding its site have altered since its initiation, notably when viewed from Castle Street, the south-side, it appears as off-centre. This is because Water Street which ran to the junction with Dale Street, the west-east axis, was continuous and built up across the junction so that the Town Hall was not visible originally from that aspect. The structures were removed 150 years after this to expose the building from this position.

Hartwell describes the Barton's Building facade as utterly ignorant.. the ground floor pilasters must be seen to be believed. The arcade, however, is a gorgeous glass and iron shopping arcade with glass domes..., the best example of this type of cast-iron and glass arcade anywhere in the country.
The entrance to the arcade on St Ann's Square incorporates a large, cast iron and glass wall. The two entrances on Deansgate are hidden behind the Barton Building. The building is of four storeys with an attic, a long nine-bay facade to Deansgate, divided in half horizontally by a balustraded balcony. The structure is composed of cast iron and glass. The iron work was supplied by the Macfarlane Saracen Glass Factory in Glasgow. The building was one of the first to be built on the newly widened Deansgate.The arcade was restored in the 1980s. The original shop fronts and decorative floor no longer exist

Number 58 was commonly associated with misfortune in many civilizations native to either Central America or Southern America. Due to their beliefs in the original 58 sins, the number came to symbolize curses and ill-luck. Aztec oracles supposedly stumbled across the number an unnaturally high number of times before disaster fell. One famous recording of this, though largely discredited as mere folktale, concerned the oracle of Moctezuma II, who allegedly counted 58 pieces of gold scattered before a sacrificial pit the day prior to the arrival of Hern\u00e1n Cort\u00e9s.

Heinz 57, a brand of sauce, and the number of varieties of foods claimed to be produced by the H.J. Heinz Company. Pictured here is the sign from the UK's largest baked bean factory near Wigan, Lancs.
Henry J. Heinz introduced the marketing slogan '57 Varieties' in 1896. He later claimed he was inspired by an advertisement he saw while riding an elevated train in New York City (a shoe store boasting '21 styles'). The reason for '57' is unclear. Heinz said he chose '5' because it was his lucky number and the number '7' was his wife's lucky number. However Heinz also said the number '7' was selected specifically because of the 'psychological influence of that figure and of its enduring significance to people of all ages'. Whatever the reasons, Heinz wanted the company to advertise the greatest number of choices of canned and bottled foods for sale. In fact by 1892, four years before the slogan was created, the Heinz company was already selling more than 60 products.
Animals, especially dogs which are a mixture of multiple breeds, can be referred to as 'Heinz 57'. In bingo in the United Kingdom, a commonly used call for '57' is 'Heinz variety'.

5 February 1984) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for English club Manchester City in the number 32 shirt. He has previously played for Boca Juniors, Corinthians, West Ham United and Manchester United. He transferred to Manchester City from United in the 2009 summer transfer window, becoming the first player to move between the two rival clubs since Terry Cooke in 1999.
His energy and goal scoring rate has since made him an indispensable player for the club in the eyes of fellow players and media alike. He was promoted to captain at the beginning of the 2010\u201311 season by manager Roberto Mancini. In 2011, Tevez sought a transfer away from Manchester, citing family reasons and Sergio Ag\u00fcero was drafted in as a replacement. However he remains a City player after his family moved back to Manchester with manager Roberto Mancini believing T\u00e9vez would stay for the foreseeable future.

Sixty, 'three score' in some older literature, is a composite number with divisors 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, and 60, making it also a highly composite number. Because 60 is the sum of its unitary divisors (excluding itself), it is a unitary perfect number, and it is also an excessive number with an abundance of 48. Being ten times a perfect number, 60 is a semi-perfect number.
Sixty is the smallest number divisible by the numbers 1 to 6. (There is no smaller number divisible by the numbers 1 to 5). 60 is the smallest number with exactly 12 divisors. It is one of only 7 integers that have more divisors than any number twice itself (sequence A072938 in OEIS), and is one of only 6 that are also lowest common multiple of a consecutive set of integers from 1, and one of the 6 that are divisors of every highly composite number higher than itself.(sequence A106037 in OEIS).
There are four Archimedean solids with 60 vertices: the truncated icosahedron, the rhombicosidodecahedron, the snub dodecahedron, and the truncated dodecahedron. The skeletons of these polyhedra form 60-node vertex-transitive graphs. There are also two Archimedean solids with 60 edges: the snub cube and the icosidodecahedron. The skeleton of the icosidodecahedron forms a 60-edge symmetric graph.
There are 60 one-sided hexominoes, the polyominoes made from 6 squares. In geometry, 60 is the number of seconds in a minute, and the number of minutes in a degree. In normal space, the 3 interior angles of an equilateral triangle each measure 60 degrees, adding up to 180 degrees.
Because 60 is divisible by the sum of its digits in base 10, it is a Harshad number. A number system with base 60 is called sexagesimal (the original meaning of sexagesimal is sixtieth).
The atomic number of Neodymium is 60.
Sixty is one of the most fascinating numbers. The Babylonian number system had a base of sixty, inherited from the Sumerian and Akkadian civilizations, and possibly motivated by the large number of divisors which 60 has. The sexagesimal measurement of time and of geometric angles is a legacy of the Babylonian system.
The number system in the Mali Empire was also based on sixty (this is reflected in the counting system of the Maasina Fulfulde, a variant of the Fula language spoken in contemporary Mali). The Ekagi of Western New Guinea have also used base 60 and the sexagenary cycle also plays a role in Chinese calendar and numerology.
In the Bible, the number 60 occurs several times, for example as the age of Isaac when Jacob and Esau were born and the number of warriors escorting King Solomon. In the laws of kashrut of Judaism, 60 is also the proportion (60:1) of kosher to non-kosher ingredients which can render an admixture kosher post-facto.
In the Koran, the number 60 is mentioned once: '..he should feed sixty indigent ones..', yet 60 is mentioned many times in the Hadith, most notably Muhammad being reported to say, '..Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, created Adam in His own image with His length of sixty cubits.
In time, the number of seconds in a minute, and the number of minutes in an hour. (a legacy of the Babylonian number system). The number of miles per hour a car accelerates to from rest (0-60) as one of the standard measurements of performance. 60 is the code for international direct dial calls to Malaysia.

30 is the designation of Interstate 30, a freeway that runs from Texas to Arkansas. My Beatles White Album has 30 tracks on it.
30 was the route number of the Transport For London bus blown up by terrorists in Tavistock Square during the 7 July 2005 London bombings. The bomb was detonated from the top deck of a number 30 double-decker bus, a Dennis Trident 2 (fleet number 17758, registration LX03 BUF, two years in service at the time) operated by Stagecoach London and travelling its route from Marble Arch to Hackney Wick.

Saint Etienne are an English electronic music band from London, formed in 1990. The band consists of Sarah Cracknell, Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs. They are named of course after the French football team AS Saint-\u00c9tienne
Saint Etienne were associated with the 'indie dance' genre in the early 1990s. Their typical approach was to combine sonic elements of the dance-pop that emerged in the wake of the so-called Second Summer of Love (e.g. samples and digitally synthesized sounds) with an emphasis on songwriting involving romantic and introspective themes more commonly associated with traditional British pop and rock music.
Early work demonstrated the influence of '60s soul, '70s dub and rock as well as '80s dance music, giving them a broad palette of sounds and a reputation for eclecticism. Years later, The Times wrote that they 'deftly fused the grooviness of Swinging Sixties London with a post-acid house backbeat'. Their first two albums, Foxbase Alpha and So Tough feature sounds chiefly associated with house music, such as standard TR-909 drum patterns and Italo house piano riffs mixed with original sounds, notable by the use of found dialogue, sampled from 1960s British realist cinema. Some of these earlier recordings included skits by (Brass Eye) satirist Chris Morris.

One is a number, a numeral, and the name of the glyph representing that number. It represents a single entity, the unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of 'unit length' is a line segment of length 1.
Any number multiplied by one is the number, as one is the identity for multiplication. As a result, one is its own factorial, its own square, its own cube, and so on. One is also the empty product, as any number multiplied by one is itself, which produces the same result as multiplying by no numbers at all. So pretty unique.
The glyph used today in the Western world to represent the number 1, a vertical line, often with a serif at the top and sometimes a short horizontal line at the bottom, traces its roots back to the Indians, who wrote 1 as a horizontal line, much like the Chinese character. The Gupta wrote it as a curved line, and the Nagari sometimes added a small circle on the left (rotated a quarter turn to the right, this 9-look-alike became the present day numeral 1 in the Gujarati and Punjabi scripts).
The Nepali also rotated it to the right but kept the circle small. This eventually became the top serif in the modern numeral, but the occasional short horizontal line at the bottom probably originates from similarity with the Roman numeral \\mathrm{I}.
In some European countries (e.g., Germany), the little serif at the top is sometimes extended into a long upstroke, sometimes as long as the vertical line, which can lead to confusion with the glyph for seven in other countries. Where the 1 is written with a long upstroke, the number 7 has a horizontal stroke through the vertical line.
One is the atomic number of the element hydrogen, the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard is numbered 01 and a one can be found on every traditional British red telephone box. Where I found this shot with my iphone Hipstamatic app.

The word 'twelve' is the largest number with a single-morpheme name in English. Etymology suggests that 'twelve' (similar to 'eleven') arises from the Germanic compound twalif 'two-leftover', so a literal translation would yield 'two remaining [after having ten taken]'. This compound meaning may have been transparent to speakers of Old English, but the modern form 'twelve' is quite opaque. Only the remaining tw- hints that twelve and two are related.
A group of twelve things is called a duodecad. The ordinal adjective is duodenary, twelfth. The adjective referring to a group consisting of twelve things is duodecuple.
The number twelve is often used as a sales unit in trade, and is often referred to as a dozen. Twelve dozen are known as a gross. (Note that there are thirteen items in a baker's dozen.). the expression 'baker's dozen' dates to the 13th century in one of the earliest English statutes, instituted during the reign of Henry III (1216\u20131272), called the Assize of Bread and Ale. Bakers who were found to have shortchanged customers (some variations say that they would sell hollow bread) could be subject to severe punishment. To guard against the punishment of losing a hand to an axe, a baker would give 13 for the price of 12, to be certain of not being known as a cheat. Specifically, the practice of baking 13 items for an intended dozen was insurance against 'short measure', on the basis that one of the 13 could be lost, eaten, burnt, or ruined in some way, leaving the baker with the original legal dozen. The practice can be seen in the guild codes of the Worshipful Company of Bakers in London.
Force 12 on the Beaufort wind force scale corresponds to the maximum wind speed of a hurricane. The duodenum (from Latin duodecim, 'twelve') is the first part of the small intestine, that is about twelve inches (30 cm) long. More precisely, this section of the intestine was measured not in inches but in fingerwidths. In fact, in German the name of the duodenum is Zw\u00f6lffingerdarm and in Dutch the name is twaalfvingerige darm, both meaning 'twelve-finger bowel'.
The importance of 12 in Judaism and Christianity can be found in the Bible. The biblical Jacob had 12 sons, who were the progenitors of the Twelve Tribes of Israel, while the New Testament describes twelve apostles of Jesus
when Judas Iscariot was disgraced, a meeting was held (Acts) to add Matthias to complete the number twelve once more. (Today, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has a Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.). In Orthodox Judaism, 12 also signifies the age a girl matures (bat mitzvah)
In Twelver Shi'a Islam, there are twelve Imams, legitimate successors of the prophet Muhammad. These twelve early leaders of Islam are\u2014Ali, Hasan, Husayn, and nine of Husayn's descendants. The Chinese use a 12 year cycle for time-reckoning called Earthly Branches.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 3875567348 - 'A wedding image in blue toned black and white monochrome within the great neogothic town hall in Manchester, which is a designated site for marriage ceremonies.
Designed by architect Alfred Waterhouse in 1877 as a town hall for a prosperous emerging city, the building features imposing murals by the artist Ford Madox Brown depicting important events in the history of the city. The Town Hall was rated by English Heritage as a Grade I listed building in 1952 and the Town Hall Extension, completed in 1938, was Grade II* listed in 1974.
The choice of Albert Square as location was influenced by a desire to provide a central, accessible, but relatively quiet site in a respectable district, close to Manchester's banks and municipal offices, next to a large open area, suitable for the display of a fine building.
The foundation stone of the new Town Hall was laid on 26th October 1868 by the Lord Mayor of Manchester, Robert Neill. The Town Hall was opened by Lord Mayor Abel Heywood, on 13 September 1877, after Queen Victoria's snubbed the city and refusal to attend the opening.
As you enter on the floor is a mosaic depicting the bee, the symbol of Manchester's being a hive of industry during the 19th century. The bee also used be on the Boddingtons beer logo. A history going back to 1778 was ended when last family chairman Ewart Boddington sold the Strangeways brewery and the Boddingtons brand to Whitbread for \u00a350.7 million. In May 2000, the Whitbread Beer Company was acquired by brewing conglomerate Interbrew. In 2004 brewing was moved from the original site next to Manchester's main victorian prison. Cask Boddingtons is still brewed in Manchester however, at teh former Kestral Lager brewary at Moss Side.
Reasuringly the town hall tower is still topped by a golden cotton seed ball, the original source of the city's wealth. That will not go the way of Strangeways brewery.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy GGWHBR - Liverpool Town Hall stands in High Street at its junction with Dale Street, Castle Street, and Water Street in Liverpool, Merseyside, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and described in the list as one of the finest surviving 18th-century town halls. The authors of the Buildings of England series refer to its magnificent scale, and consider it to be probably the grandest ...suite of civic rooms in the country, and an outstanding and complete example of late Georgian decoration.
It is not an administrative building but a civic suite, Lord Mayor's parlour and Council chamber
local government administration is centred at the nearby Municipal Buildings. The town hall was built between 1749 and 1754 to a design by John Wood the Elder replacing an earlier town hall nearby. An extension to the north designed by James Wyatt was added in 1785. Following a fire in 1795 the hall was largely rebuilt and a dome designed by Wyatt was built. Minor alterations have subsequently been made. The streets surrounding its site have altered since its initiation, notably when viewed from Castle Street, the south-side, it appears as off-centre. This is because Water Street which ran to the junction with Dale Street, the west-east axis, was continuous and built up across the junction so that the Town Hall was not visible originally from that aspect. The structures were removed 150 years after this to expose the building from this position.

The subject suits features on seasonal events, family entertainment, city-centre crowd management, night photography, visitor spending and the blend of tradition and spectacle in New Year celebrations.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy F0XDX1 - This documentary stock photograph shows Berlin city Cycle illuminated pedal Rickshaw / taxi, at night, Germany - lights on. The image records an illuminated cycle rickshaw or pedal taxi at night, making it useful for editorial features on Berlin nightlife, tourist transport, theatre districts, sustainable travel and illuminated city leisure. Berlin is a city where ordinary street details often carry heavy layers of history, from Prussian and imperial architecture to the Weimar period, Nazi rule, wartime destruction, division, the DDR, reunification, tourism, gentrification and contemporary creative culture. The caption and visible subject detail provide a specific point of entry into that wider story rather than a generic German city view. Buyers could use the photograph for articles about Berlin travel, Cold War memory, street art, museum interpretation, urban nightlife, river sightseeing, architecture, souvenir culture, public transport, pedestrian design or the way history is repackaged in modern tourism. Search-friendly composite terms include Berlin Mitte street art, DDR surveillance display, Berlin Fernsehturm skyline, River Spree pleasure boat, Ampelmann crossing light, Berliner Dom interior, Berlin urban culture and German capital tourism. If the subject is graffiti, it can illustrate the city as a living wall of political humour, youth culture, commercial branding and layered paste-ups. If it is heritage or church architecture, it can support more formal travel, culture, history and education uses. If it is a boat, toy or street sign, it gives editors an accessible human-scale route into a large city story. The documentary style keeps the image credible for web, magazine, guidebook, education, museum, travel, urban policy, politics, design, consumer and social commentary use. Its strength for Alamy search is the mix of precise caption wording and broader Berlin themes, allowing it to be found for both narrow subject searches and wider.
