Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3F58GEE - . Springfield Campus of the University of Wolverhampton, developed on the historic former Springfield Brewery site in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, England. The campus combines surviving industrial architecture with major new education and research buildings and has become a specialist centre for architecture, construction and the built environment. William Butler & Company developed the Springfield Brewery from the 1870s, taking advantage of local water supplies and good canal and railway connections, and the complex later became part of Mitchells & Butlers. Brewing ceased in the early 1990s and the listed site deteriorated badly, suffering major fire damage before the University of Wolverhampton acquired it for regeneration. The university's redevelopment retained and adapted significant historic brick structures while introducing contemporary teaching, research and business facilities. Springfield is now home to the School of Architecture and Built Environment, the National Brownfield Institute and organisations focused on construction skills, digital technology, regeneration and innovation. The wider campus has been promoted as one of Europe's largest specialist construction and built-environment education centres and forms part of continuing investment in Wolverhampton's economy and skills base. The photograph is suitable for editorial coverage of higher education, university investment, student recruitment, clearing, architecture courses, construction training, brownfield regeneration, heritage reuse, skills shortages, urban renewal, education funding and the transformation of redundant industrial sites. It also provides a strong visual case study of adaptive reuse, showing how a former brewery associated with Wolverhampton's industrial past has been given a new role supporting education, research, apprenticeships and economic development. It also illustrates skills, retrofit, net zero construction and brownfield regeneration in the built environment

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3F12DMM - . Pint of beer in a Heriot-Watt University branded glass on a pub table in Scotland, UK. Photographed on 28 June 2026. The close view shows the university crest and name on the glass with the surrounding pub interior softly visible in the background. The branded glass provides a clear visual link between an academic institution and an informal social setting, while the warm amber colour of the beer and reflective glass create an attractive close-up. Seen through student experience, the earlier context is that universities and colleges are both educational institutions and major pieces of civic architecture
Graduation ceremonies, historic buildings and campus signs record academic traditions as well as the growth of higher education. For community asset, the historical context is that beer culture links agriculture, brewing, distribution and the licensed trade
Cask-conditioned ale, handpumps, brewery branding and pub interiors became especially important to the real-ale revival from the 1970s onwards, while later craft brewing introduced new styles and independent producers. The 2026 relevance of student experience comes from the fact that higher education remains central to regional economies , particularly in cities where universities support research, employment and cultural life
Campus images therefore connect education with urban development and skills policy. For community asset, the 2026 context is that in England eligible pubs and live-music venues receive a 15% business-rates relief for the 2026/27 billing year, reflecting continuing concern about operating costs, closures and the role of hospitality in town-centre vitality. Relevant synonyms and subject phrases include graduates, students, academic life, learning, university building, degree ceremony, education sector, public house, licensed premises, alehouse, hostelry, bar trade, real ale, cask ale, local pub, historic pub, nightlife, and independent brewery.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJ121K - . Manchester Metropolitan University library on Oxford Road, Manchester, England, UK. Photographed on 23 May 2026. The recorded location is Oxford Road, Manchester, Greater Manchester, England, UK. The modern university building has a dark contemporary facade, large glazed entrance and prominent Library and Manchester Metropolitan University branding. Libraries remain central to university study, research and student support while increasingly combining printed collections with digital resources, study spaces and technology. For the story of digital access, it is useful to note that public libraries expanded during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries as part of civic education, later adding computers, events and digital services while retaining their role as shared community space. The historical setting for graduates is that universities and colleges are both educational institutions and major pieces of civic architecture
Graduation ceremonies, historical buildings and campus signs record academic traditions as well as the growth of higher education. For present-day digital access, 2026 is significant because digitisation has changed research but has not removed the need for physical archives and collections. institutions increasingly combine online access with conservation of original material and renewed interest in local history. In the 2026 discussion of graduates, universities face continuing pressure around funding, international recruitment, student living costs and the value of degrees, while graduation remains an important public ritual marking educational achievement.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EJ121P - Two Revolutionary Communist Party street posters are shown pasted to a worn, graffiti-marked wall on Oxford Road in Manchester, one of the city's busiest student and university corridors. The image records contemporary political campaigning, left-wing recruitment and street-level activist messaging in a prominent urban public space. The posters use bold red, black and white graphics, QR codes and provocative slogans including Are you a communist? , Then get organised! , Join the fight for revolution! and Wipe out the Epstein class! to attract attention from passers-by, especially students, young workers and politically engaged pedestrians. One poster features an image of Karl Marx, while the other uses a collage-style portrait and class-war language to frame the appeal. Oxford Road is closely associated with the University of Manchester, Manchester Metropolitan University, the Royal Northern College of Music, hospitals, cultural venues and student accommodation, making it a logical location for political flyposting aimed at a young audience. The Revolutionary Communist Party describes itself as the British section of the Revolutionary Communist International, and its own material uses similar get organised recruitment language aimed at workers and youth. The photograph is useful for editorial themes including student politics, Marxism, socialism, communist campaigning, British radical politics, political recruitment, protest culture, flyposting, youth activism, public propaganda, urban documentary photography and political messaging in the North West of England. The bright daylight and visible hard shadows suggest a clear or partly sunny day, with the rough painted background, torn paper edges and street grime adding texture and context. This is an editorial documentary image of political posters and public wall messaging in Manchester rather than an endorsement of the slogans or organisation shown.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EGG81W - . Gang of Four Leeds University Union concert poster for Saturday 6 December 1978, Leeds, England, UK. Photographed on 16 May 2026. The recorded location is Leeds, West Yorkshire, England, UK. The densely designed black, red and white poster repeatedly uses LEEDS UNIVERSITY UNION and features GANG OF FOUR among the event information, creating a strong period graphic associated with the city's late-1970s music scene. Gang of Four emerged from Leeds and became internationally influential for a sharp post-punk sound combining angular guitar, funk rhythms and political themes. The preserved poster can illustrate stories about the Leeds alternative music scene, student venues, gig promotion, band history and late-1970s British popular culture. For campus, the historical context is that school and university imagery documents the social history of education: buildings, uniforms, ceremonies and signs reveal how institutions present identity and how access to learning has changed. Looking at music history, the longer history is that live-music photographs preserve performances that are otherwise transient, recording musicians, venues, stage lighting and audiences at a particular point in a career
Tickets, posters and venue exteriors add another layer of music-industry history. The background to manual is that graphic design turns practical information into a visual object
Typefaces, layout and printing methods can identify a period or brand, while small paper items preserve prices, slogans and events that may otherwise leave little physical trace. For campus, the 2026 context is that universities face continuing pressure around funding, international recruitment, student living costs and the value of degrees, while graduation remains an important public ritual marking educational achievement. In 2026, music history remains relevant because streaming dominates recorded music , increasing the importance of touring, merchandise and live events to many artists.

The image shows a quiet public library space with bookshelves, reference collections, notebooks, laptops, chairs, parquet flooring, pale walls, Victorian arches and soft natural light, making it useful for editorial coverage of libraries, art research, public study space, adult learning, cultural access, civic buildings and heritage interiors. Leeds Libraries says the Arts Floor of Central Library includes the Art Library, Music and Performing Arts Library, Studio12 and exhibition space, while Leeds Museums and Galleries locates Leeds Art Gallery on The Headrow, close to the shared library and gallery complex. The surrounding building is strongly associated with Leeds's municipal cultural heritage, sitting beside the better-known Tiled Hall, which Leeds Museums and Galleries says was originally the main library reading room and later functioned as a sculpture court from 1888 to 1941. This photograph captures the quieter working side of that cultural complex: people reading, studying, researching and using free public facilities rather than simply visiting exhibitions or cafés. It can illustrate stories about the value of public libraries, local authority cultural services, arts education, student research, community learning, warm civic spaces, city centre study areas, library funding, heritage reuse and access to knowledge. Visible details such as the long shared table, bookshelves, arched red-brick window surrounds, large windows and calm concentration of users provide a strong documentary sense of place. The image has good stock value for themes around learning, culture, public services, Leeds tourism, Victorian architecture, municipal pride, literacy, art history, research, quiet workspaces and the continuing

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EBGJWJ - Exterior view of The Salutation, a historic Victorian pub on Higher Chatham Street in Manchester, close to Oxford Road, Manchester Metropolitan University and the city centre student quarter. The photograph shows the frontage with its distinctive copper-toned sign, tiled facade, hanging baskets and blue plaque, making it a strong editorial image for Manchester pub history, real ale culture, student life, heritage streetscapes and literary tourism. The Salutation, often known locally as The Sally, has long been associated with Manchester drinking culture, cask ale, craft beer, music, comedy and community events. Current listings give the address as 12 Higher Chatham Street, Manchester M15 6ED, while CAMRA records it as a cask ale pub operated by Manchester Metropolitan Students' Union. The building is also noted for its Charlotte Brontë connection: the pub's own history page says a commemorative blue plaque recognises Brontë's link with the site, and Manchester literary sources describe how Charlotte Brontë came to Manchester in 1846 with her father, Patrick Brontë, when he underwent eye surgery, and began work on Jane Eyre while staying nearby. The image may also suit archive and feature uses connected with old brewery branding, including Hardy's Ales and historic Manchester pub signs, although the visible frontage should be captioned primarily as The Salutation rather than as a brewery premises. Beyond its literary association, The Salutation has more recent cultural links, including accounts of Frank Sidebottom, Chris Sievey, The Fall and Manchester's alternative music scene. The upward viewpoint, urban light and warm illuminated signage give the image a documentary feel, useful for coverage of Victorian pubs, campus drinking places, Manchester heritage, Oxford Road Corridor regeneration, pub preservation, hospitality, real ale, local identity and the value of characterful pubs in a city increasingly dominated by redevelopment and chain venues.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E8PTY0 - A bronze statue of Long Boi stands beside the lake near Derwent College at the University of York, commemorating the unusually tall stock-photo/gotonysmith-Campus.html?sortBy=relevant&pseudoid=237DAF28-A4ED-4448-8173-C0E81ABEEC6F Target=_Blank>campus duck who became a student mascot, local celebrity and internet favourite. Long Boi was widely described as a mallard and Indian runner duck cross, known for his extraordinary height, long neck, friendly presence and regular appearances around the university's lakes and green spaces. The sculpture was created after a crowdfunding campaign led by the students' union, with the University of York saying £5,300 was raised and that the statue was unveiled by BBC Radio 1 presenter Greg James on 26 September 2024. University publicity says the life-sized bronze was hand carved in clay by award-winning wildlife sculptor Neil Mason before being cast in bronze, and that it stands near the lake at Derwent College, one of Long Boi's favourite haunts. The image is commercially useful for stories about university life, campus culture, student humour, memorial sculpture, public art, crowdfunding, social media fame, animal mascots, British eccentricity and the emotional role of wildlife in shared places. It can also illustrate the University of York's distinctive lakeside campus, where ducks, geese and other waterfowl form part of the everyday student experience. The statue's plinth, plaque, bronze finish, lawns, college buildings and live geese in the background give the photograph strong documentary value as a real memorial rather than a generic animal sculpture. Long Boi's story is useful for features on internet culture, community affection, grief, silliness, public memory and how a much-loved animal can become part of an institution's identity. As a stock image, it records a quirky but meaningful piece of contemporary campus heritage, showing how humour, affection and student folklore can be given permanent form in bronze.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E3P83Y - A hanging sign for This & That Indian Cafe is shown on Soap Street in Manchester's Northern Quarter, advertising rice and three curries and displaying the café's long-standing telephone number. The simple illuminated sign is a recognisable detail of one of Manchester's best-known curry cafés, tucked away off the busier streets of the city centre.

The image is commercially useful for stories about Manchester food culture, cheap eats, independent restaurants, hidden gems, curry cafés, halal food, vegetarian options, lunchtime trade, local hospitality and the survival of long-running city-centre eateries. The sign also has value for features on the changing Northern Quarter, where former warehouses, small food businesses, bars, music venues and creative industries have helped shape a distinctive urban identity. The close-up composition, brick buildings, external metal staircase and angled sign give the photograph a gritty back-street feel that suits coverage of authentic local food rather than polished chain restaurant branding. It can also illustrate wider themes around migrant food culture, family-run businesses, affordable dining, Manchester tourism, street-level signage, restaurant heritage and how modest cafés can become part of a city's social memory. As a documentary stock image, it records a small but culturally important Manchester food landmark, where curry, lunch culture, value, tradition and Northern Quarter character meet on Soap Street.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RH8AFD - Odeon Cinema Harrogate, North Yorkshire
East Parade, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG1 5LB
Designed by: Harry Weedon and W Calder Robson
Built: 1936
Standing on the corner of East Parade and Station Avenue in the North Yorkshire town of Harrogate is arguably one of Britain's finest Modernist cinema buildings. Today, the building survives as part of the Odeon cinema chain after eight decades of continuous use as a working cinema.
The Odeon company traces its history back to 1930 when the firm established by Oscar Deutsch (1893-1941) opened its first cinema bearing the Odeon name, at Perry Barr in Birmingham, on 4 August 1930. The company saw its greatest period of expansion during the 1930s, as the increasing popularity of cinema-going allowed Deutsch to open in excess of 250 cinemas prior to the Second World War.
Like the majority of Odeon's cinemas, the Odeon Harrogate was built in the Streamlined Moderne style and was a product of the Weedon Partnership. Harry Weedon (1887-1970) became involved with the Odeon chain in 1934 and his company produced designs for some of the finest buildings of the period.
The dominant feature of the Odeon Harrogate's design is a central brown-brick tower, with a projecting, taller 'fin' clad in biscuit-coloured faience tiles. At the top of the fin 'cinema' is spelt out in slender, sans-serif lettering. The tower is set in front of the main auditorium, of which the uppermost section is visible behind the tower. The top section is broken with projecting bands of darker brown brick, and the bands continue down the face of the tower on its southern face.
The northern range of the cinema (to the left when viewed face-on) comprises a five-bay, four-storey block clad in the same biscuit-coloured faience, save for the base of the building, which is clad in black faience. The faience tiles are rectangular and are set in pairs horizontally, with thin joints between the paired tiles, and thicker, more prominent horizontal joints

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNG8 - This image shows a painted Cheshire Cat artwork displayed on a bus stop shelter on Wilderspool Causeway in Warrington, Cheshire (postcode WA4 1AD), close to the Causeway Hotel. The illustration forms part of local visual identity and public art initiatives that bring character and humour to everyday urban infrastructure.
The Cheshire Cat is a well-known fictional character from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll, who was born in nearby Daresbury, Cheshire. Its use in public artwork across the county has become a recognisable symbol of regional identity, often appearing in murals, sculptures, and street art installations.
In this scene, the smiling cat is painted directly onto the blue bus shelter panel beneath official transport signage indicating services toward Warrington Bank Quay Station interchange. The contrast between functional transport information and playful artwork highlights efforts to humanise public spaces and improve the everyday experience of commuters.
Photographed in daylight with surrounding brick buildings and railings visible, the image is well suited to editorial use covering public art, local identity, community placemaking, transport environments, and the integration of cultural references into ordinary street scenes in towns such as Warrington

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2KF7FA5 - The York Medical Society was founded in 1832, two years before the establishment of York Medical School. The first president, Baldwin Wake, addressed the Society at its first meeting in March 1832.
At the time, they had no permanent premises and met first at the York dispensary, then between October 1856 and May 1874 at Mr Graham's house in Market Town, followed by three years in the Board Room at York County Hospital after Mr Graham's death and then for a brief period between 1877 and 1878 at 9 Ousegate. For the next two years the York Medical Society met at the de Grey Rooms and then until 1915, they rented rooms at 1 Low Ousegate, when they moved to the current location of 23 Stonegate, the previous home of Tempest Anderson and his father W.C. Anderson.
It developed consulting rooms and a dispensary.
In 2003, the library and archive were moved to the Borthwick Institute.
Premises
23 Stonegate is a late 16th-Century house, which incorporates the remains of several earlier structures on the site, and which has been altered and extended at various times in the centuries following its construction. Its 1590 rainwater head is the oldest surviving in York. The building is currently divided into a number of offices and flats as well as serving as the base for the society. It has had associations with the medical profession since at least the early 19th-Century, when it was owned by the Anderson family, and in the later part of the century it was home to the surgeon and vulcanologist Tempest Anderson, whose plaque is still present on the entrance to the building. It was purchased by the York Medical Society in 1944
the dining room, which features a Greek fret and paterae underneath an elaborate cornice, now serves as the society's lecture hall. The building was first listed in 1954, and was upgraded to Grade II* in 1997

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M84JCC - Children's Health Ireland at Temple Street (Irish: Sláinte Leanaà Éireann ag Sráid an Teampaill) is a children's hospital located on Temple Street, Dublin, Ireland. It is a teaching hospital of University College Dublin and Trinity College Dublin
The hospital was founded by Mrs. Ellen Woodlock and her close friend Sarah Atkinson at 9 Upper Buckingham Street in 1872. It had just 8 beds when it opened. In 1876, the growing success of the hospital prompted the governing committee to invite the Religious Sisters of Charity to take over the running of the hospital.
In May 1879 the lease at 9 Upper Buckingham Street expired and, with the help of a bequest, the sisters purchased the former home of the Earls of Bellomont at 15 Temple Street. Over the following years adjoining houses were purchased such as the residence of the Parnell family, number 14. The hospital expanded in the 1930s with help from the Irish Hospitals' Sweepstake.
A new nurses' home and a new x-ray department was officially opened by Minister of Lands, Seán Flanagan, in the presence of the President of Ireland, Éamon de Valera, in 1972.
In line with other teaching hospitals, the facility changed its name from the Children's Hospital, Temple Street to the Children's University Hospital, Temple Street in the late 1990s and changed its name again to the Temple Street Children's University Hospital in 2012
The hospital changed its name from Temple Street Children's University Hospital to Children's Health Ireland at Temple Street as part of the rebranding of three hospitals under the Children's Health Ireland banner on 1 January 2019

A new wooded barrel has been constructed to replace the bottom of the Vimto bottle and new labels have been carved and painted.
The monument was first carved by Kerry Morrison and installed in Granby Row in 1992. Granby Row is the site of the factory where the first batch of Vimto was made by John Noel Nichols back in 1908.
After 19 years of the Manchester weather and attention from city revellers, the monument was in need of a refresh and it has been brought back to its former glory by Nick Lumb at Acorn Furniture in Wrexham.

Television made their vinyl debut with 'Little Johnny Jewel', a 7-inch single on the independent label Ork Records in 1975. Ork Records was owned by their manager, Terry Ork. The song was split into two parts, one on each side of the single. Richard Lloyd apparently disagreed with the selection of this song, preferring the never-released 'O Mi Amore' for their debut, to the extent that he seriously considered leaving the band.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DRH7YT - Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King (usually known as Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral) is the cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Liverpool in Liverpool, England. The cathedral is the seat of the Archbishop of Liverpool.The Grade II* Metropolitan Cathedral is one of Liverpool's many listed buildings. It is sometimes known locally as Paddy's Wigwam or the Mersey Funnel, especially for tourists, but these are less common terms locally within the City.
The cathedral's architect, Frederick Gibberd, was the winner of a worldwide design competition. Construction began in 1962 and took five years. Earlier designs for a cathedral were proposed in 1853, 1933, and 1953, but none was completed.
During the Great Irish Famine (1845“1852) the Catholic population of Liverpool increased dramatically. About half a million Irish, who were predominantly Catholic, fled to England to escape the famine
many embarked from Liverpool to travel to North America while others remained in city.[5] Because of the increase in the Catholic population, the co-adjutor Bishop of Liverpool, Alexander Goss (1814“1872), saw the need for a cathedral. The location he chose was the grounds of St. Edward's College on St. Domingo Road, Everton.[6]
In 1853 Goss, then bishop, awarded the commission for the building of the new cathedral to Edward Welby Pugin (1833“1875). By 1856 the Lady Chapel of the new cathedral had been completed. Due to financial resources being diverted to the education of Catholic children, work on the building ceased at this point and the Lady Chapel “ now named Our Lady Immaculate “ served as parish church to the local Catholic population until its demolition in the 1980s.

The recorded location is 50 New Wakefield Street, Manchester, England, UK, M1 5NP. Free music venue and nightclub, serving vegetarian and vegan pub food including all-day breakfasts. From a heritage perspective, murals, sculptures and civic artworks turn public space into a record of community culture
They can commemorate people and events, respond to politics, celebrate industry or simply enliven streets, while the artists' materials and styles place the work within a particular period. The historical context is that street and highway scenes record the practical infrastructure of mobility, including road signs, junctions, bridges, parking controls and changing vehicle use
They also provide a visual history of traffic growth, road engineering and the effort to balance drivers, pedestrians and community communities. The historical context is that farming and allotment imagery records the practical work behind food production, from ploughing and arable crops to small-scale vegetable growing
Allotments expanded strongly during periods of food shortage and remain an important part of British urban and suburban gardening culture. As of 2026, contemporary interest in public art is closely linked to regeneration and cultural tourism. murals and sculpture continue to be used to express identity and animate public space, while redevelopment can make photographic records of earlier works increasingly valuable. The subject remains topical in 2026 because road policy continues to focus on safety, congestion, emissions and the balance between private cars, buses, cycling and walking
Images of older traffic controls, signs and busy roads provide useful comparison with current debates about sustainable transport and street design. Useful alternative terminology includes street art, visual culture, and cultural identity.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HWM7 - August, always a mad busy crazy time in Edinburgh, during the festival and fringe, which seems to have grown even bigger than the tattoo and festival. There's no shortage of scaryness and satire here!.
Echo and Narcissus @ Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2012. From Rag and Bone Productions the Venue was theSpace on North Bridge. It was on until 18th August 2012 @ venue 36.
As the review says, Sometimes it is hard to tell image from reality until the illusion is shattered at the tap of a finger. Durham University's Rag & Bone Productions use an exciting combination of physical theatre, drama and dance to bring you this dark and innovative take on a classic Greek myth. The tragic story of Echo and Narcissus follows the disastrous consequences of a man falling in love with his own reflection. Rag & Bone successfully fuse visual spectacle with the best of storytelling to explore this tale of hurt, rejection, pride and vanity. Not to be missed!
Narcissus, is a young man blessed with untold beauty, who spurns all amorous advances, be they from citizens, nymphs, or just about anyone who can appreciate the beauty of the perfect human form. Meanwhile, talkative forest nymph Echo is tasked by Zeus to distract his wife Hera with incredible stories while he has an affair. Hera finds out and curses Echo to be able to repeat only the ends of sentences spoken to her (hence her name, Echo).
She runs into Narcissus in a forest, he rejects her fumbled echoes and she wastes away until she is nothing but a voice. Narcissus rejects one final advance of an older man by the name of Ameinus and mocks him for his futile attempts, daring him to kill himself. Ameinus does so, but curses Narcissus beforehand, resulting in Artemis bewitching Narcissus to fall in love with the next person he sees.
As he is hunting in the woods, he stops to rest by a quiet pool in a grassy clearing and falls in love with his own reflection. At a loss, he plunges in to reach the young man but drowns. A s

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HD5E - King's College is a constituent college of the University of Cambridge in Cambridge, England. Formally named The King's College of Our Lady and Saint Nicholas in Cambridge, the college lies on the River Cam and faces out onto King's Parade in the centre of the city.
King's was founded in 1441 by Henry VI, soon after he had founded its sister college in Eton. However, the King's plans for the college were disrupted by the Wars of the Roses and resultant scarcity of funds, and his eventual deposition. Little progress was made on the project until in 1508 Henry VII began to take an interest in the college, most likely as a political move to legitimise his new position. The building of the college's chapel, begun in 1446, was finally finished in 1544 during the reign of Henry VIII.
King's College Chapel is regarded as one of the greatest examples of late Gothic English architecture. It has the world's largest fan-vault, and the chapel's stained-glass windows and wooden chancel screen are considered some of the finest from their era.
The building is seen as emblematic of Cambridge. The chapel's choir, composed of male students at King's and choristers from the nearby King's College School, is one of the most accomplished and renowned in the world. Every year on Christmas Eve the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols (a service devised specifically for King's by college dean Eric Milner-White) is broadcast from the chapel to millions of listeners worldwide

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5286483086 - 'I Predict A Riot - 'Kaiser Chiefs' - Play this track here.
\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
The bands best known track, B-Sided with 'Take My Temperature', it documents a rowdy night out in their native Leeds, Yorkshire with members from the former band Black Wire. Professional Yorkshiremen, the track uses words like 'thee' to press the point home. Mention of chip fat (not oil) is also significant. A vegan friend of mine living in Yorkshire was always bemused to see chip shops proudly displaying signs like 'Everything fried in lard', or similar.
A friday or saturday night in Leeds can indeed become lairy when shell-suited folk ask for a pound for the buz or a condom. You are well advised to spot them at 50 paces and make good your escape! In fairness, not an experience exclusive to Yorkhire.
The track mentions John Smeaton ('an old Leodiensian'). He was a Civil Engineer, born in Austhorpe, Leeds 1724. Boris Johnson described the Kaisers as 'the weeds from Leeds' and compared the lyrics with that of 'White Riot' by The Clash.

Lizzie and Owen are both Appleton college students, this is part of Bridgewater High School, Warrington, England UK. On this saturday they garnered over 160 signatures, including mine. Lizzie told me that she received some very positive feedback from members of the public who could relate to the situation because they'd either been to university themselves or who had children either currently attending or wanting to in the future. One woman actually told me she went to University when it was free, but said she wouldn't now due to the amount of debt.
Some people who had seen her protesting decided to alert the police, exaggerating the situation, however the police turned out to be really supportive and encouraging! By all accounts the police are currently picking up lots of overtime due to these protests as the cutbacks will not allow deployment of additional officers.
Lizzie was clear where she thought the blame should be. 'I think what frustrates students the most is the role deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has played in the proposals. during his election campaign he made a ridiculous and highly ambitious claim that if his party won, he would make all University education free. considering the current climate, this proposal was never at all realistic, and i do agree that students should contribute some money towards their higher education. however, for Nick Clegg to have voted in favour of the raising of tuition fees shows he has completely gone against his word to the public and future students. what annoys me further is the fact that Vince Cable- a Lib Dem minister- who was responsible for drawing up the plans to increase fees by treble the amount threatened to abstain over the issue
being responsible for it he should have accepted the consequences for his actions'.
'if the legislation is passed as intended in 2012, then students in the UK will be paying more than any others in Europe. what the increase in fees represents is the Tories once again focussing on helping those at the top. it means that only those who can afford it will be able to go, who aren't necessarily always going to be the people who work the hardest and achieve the best results
it will make it a place of elitists once again. this coalition government is being governed solely by one party, with the Lib Dems cowardly giving in to everything asked of them. the strikes and protests led by the students were admirable, and while i don't condone the violence they were clearly provoked at times- members of the royal family being driven right through the centre of the protests. it is reported that Nick Clegg had to get the Tories to agree with some of his policies before he agreed to vote in favour of the increased tuition fees. it was called a compromise. but was it a compromise worth taking?!...... Definitely not!!!'
Interestingly, only English students will be shouldering these cuts, although MP's from right across the UK voted it in. Surely about time some form of devolved English parliament should be looked into....
With us only days before ushering in a new year, I think we might be seeing a bit more of this kind of thing!

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PP0N93 - The Russell Group is a self-selected association of twenty-four public research universities in the United Kingdom. The group is headquartered in Cambridge and was established in 1994 to represent its members' interests, principally to government and Parliament. It was incorporated in 2007. Its members are often perceived as being the UK's best universities, but this has been disputed.
As of 2017, Russell Group members receive over three-quarters of all university research grant and contract income in the United Kingdom. Russell Group members award 60% of all doctorates gained in the United Kingdom. In the 2021 Research Excellence Framework, Russell Group universities accounted for 65% of all world-leading (4*) research conducted in the UK, and 91% of the Russell Group's research was judged to be world-leading (4*) or internationally excellent (3*). Of the 21 Russell Group universities that have entered the Teaching Excellence and Student Outcomes Framework (TEF), 10 hold gold awards (48%), 10 silver (48%) and one bronze (5%), compared to proportions across all 274 higher education providers with full awards of 28% gold, 50% silver and 22% bronze, and proportions across 139 universities and alternative providers with university status of 40% gold, 50% silver and 10% bronze. Their graduates hold 61% of all UK jobs that require a university degree, despite being only 17% of all higher education graduates.
The Russell Group is named after the location of the first informal meetings of the Group, which took place at the Hotel Russell in Russell Square, London

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HGC7WY - Famous equestrian statue of the Duke of Wellington in Glasgow city centre wears an orange traffic cone, continuing one of Scotland's best-known examples of irreverent urban humour. Sculpted by Italian-born Carlo Marochetti and erected in 1844, the bronze monument depicts Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, mounted on his horse Copenhagen and stands outside Glasgow's Gallery of Modern Art at Royal Exchange Square. The statue is now Category A listed, but since at least the early 1980s members of the public, frequently associated in popular accounts with students, revellers and Glasgow nightlife, have repeatedly climbed the monument and placed a road cone on Wellington's head. The exact first coning is difficult to prove, so claims that one particular student invented the tradition should be treated cautiously. What began as a prank developed into an unofficial Glasgow institution, celebrated as an expression of the city's cheeky, anti-pomp and distinctly Glaswegian sense of humour. Council staff and police repeatedly removed cones, only for replacements to appear, sometimes within hours. The repeated cycle became expensive and increasingly futile. In 2013 Glasgow City Council proposed spending about £65,000 altering and raising the plinth to make the statue harder to climb, arguing that regular cone removal cost around £100 each time and risked damage to the historic monument. The attempt backfired spectacularly. More than 10,000 people signed an online petition opposing the scheme, while a Save the Cone campaign attracted tens of thousands of supporters. Faced with the public reaction, the council withdrew the proposal. The cone consequently survived official attempts to suppress it and evolved from supposed vandalism into an internationally recognised Glasgow emblem. Banksy later cited the permanently coned Wellington as a reason for choosing GoMA for his 2023 exhibition,while Glasgow Life now describes the self-perpetuating cone as an iconic part of the city

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M84JCF - Children's Health Ireland at Temple Street (Irish: Sláinte Leanaà Éireann ag Sráid an Teampaill) is a children's hospital located on Temple Street, Dublin, Ireland. It is a teaching hospital of University College Dublin and Trinity College Dublin
The hospital was founded by Mrs. Ellen Woodlock and her close friend Sarah Atkinson at 9 Upper Buckingham Street in 1872. It had just 8 beds when it opened. In 1876, the growing success of the hospital prompted the governing committee to invite the Religious Sisters of Charity to take over the running of the hospital.
In May 1879 the lease at 9 Upper Buckingham Street expired and, with the help of a bequest, the sisters purchased the former home of the Earls of Bellomont at 15 Temple Street. Over the following years adjoining houses were purchased such as the residence of the Parnell family, number 14. The hospital expanded in the 1930s with help from the Irish Hospitals' Sweepstake.
A new nurses' home and a new x-ray department was officially opened by Minister of Lands, Seán Flanagan, in the presence of the President of Ireland, Éamon de Valera, in 1972.
In line with other teaching hospitals, the facility changed its name from the Children's Hospital, Temple Street to the Children's University Hospital, Temple Street in the late 1990s and changed its name again to the Temple Street Children's University Hospital in 2012
The hospital changed its name from Temple Street Children's University Hospital to Children's Health Ireland at Temple Street as part of the rebranding of three hospitals under the Children's Health Ireland banner on 1 January 2019

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HDBH - The John Rylands Library is a late-Victorian neo-Gothic building on Deansgate in Manchester, England. The library, which opened to the public in 1900, was founded by Enriqueta Augustina Rylands in memory of her husband, John Rylands.[4] The John Rylands Library and the library of the University of Manchester merged in July 1972 into the John Rylands University Library of Manchester. Special collections built up by both libraries were progressively concentrated in the Deansgate building.
The special collections, believed to be among the largest in the United Kingdom,[5] include medieval illuminated manuscripts and examples of early European printing, including a Gutenberg Bible, the second largest collection of printing by William Caxton,[6] and the most extensive collection of the editions of the Aldine Press of Venice.[7] The Rylands Library Papyrus P52 is believed to be the earliest extant New Testament text. The library holds personal papers and letters of notable figures, among them Elizabeth Gaskell and John Dalton.
The architectural style is primarily neo-Gothic with elements of Arts and Crafts Movement in the ornate and imposing gatehouse facing Deansgate which dominates the surrounding streetscape. The library, granted Grade I listed status in 1994, is maintained by the University of Manchester and open for library readers and visitors.

The supplied location evidence places the subject at or near Edinburgh, Scotland, UK, which adds value for buyers searching by town, city, region or postcode. The supplied caption gives the main editorial context
visible weather, signage and surrounding detail should be checked on upload. It should work for editorial buyers needing authentic, non-staged British or travel imagery for news, magazine, blog, local government, heritage, housing, transport, tourism, retail, public policy or social commentary use. The caption should be checked against the visible photograph before upload so that any readable signs, weather, time of day and people context are accurately reflected without overstating facts not shown in the image. The strongest sales value is the combination of named subject, real location and everyday documentary style, giving picture editors a flexible image that can sit alongside features, opinion pieces, explainers, historical retrospectives and local news. Search relevance is helped by including concise place names, visible brand or wording, functional subject terms, and wider editorial concepts such as public realm, consumer behaviour, heritage, travel, leisure and community life where they genuinely match the picture. Because this is not a studio setup, the surrounding details matter: pavement, interior, transport hardware, street furniture, shopfronts, people, signs, light and seasonal clues can all help the buyer understand the real-world setting.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DRH82P - Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King (usually known as Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral) is the cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Liverpool in Liverpool, England. The cathedral is the seat of the Archbishop of Liverpool.The Grade II* Metropolitan Cathedral is one of Liverpool's many listed buildings. It is sometimes known locally as Paddy's Wigwam or the Mersey Funnel, especially for tourists, but these are less common terms locally within the City.
The cathedral's architect, Frederick Gibberd, was the winner of a worldwide design competition. Construction began in 1962 and took five years. Earlier designs for a cathedral were proposed in 1853, 1933, and 1953, but none was completed.
During the Great Irish Famine (1845“1852) the Catholic population of Liverpool increased dramatically. About half a million Irish, who were predominantly Catholic, fled to England to escape the famine
many embarked from Liverpool to travel to North America while others remained in city.[5] Because of the increase in the Catholic population, the co-adjutor Bishop of Liverpool, Alexander Goss (1814“1872), saw the need for a cathedral. The location he chose was the grounds of St. Edward's College on St. Domingo Road, Everton.[6]
In 1853 Goss, then bishop, awarded the commission for the building of the new cathedral to Edward Welby Pugin (1833“1875). By 1856 the Lady Chapel of the new cathedral had been completed. Due to financial resources being diverted to the education of Catholic children, work on the building ceased at this point and the Lady Chapel “ now named Our Lady Immaculate “ served as parish church to the local Catholic population until its demolition in the 1980s.
