Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EG4BHB - This editorial documentary photograph shows families and stallholders enjoy Warrington BID Food & Drink Festival at Bank Park, with spice bags and sourdough toasties in spring sun. The location metadata places the image at or around Warrington, Cheshire, England. It was photographed on 17 May 2026, giving the image a useful time reference for contemporary editorial, archive and stock use. Relevant subject terms include Warrington Bid, Warrington, town hall, Sankey St, food and drink, 2026, festival, Bank Park, sourdough toasties, spice bags, food & drink, May, making the image useful for buyers looking for precise place, object, social, travel or documentary themes. The subject also carries architectural and heritage context, showing how historic civic, commercial or transport buildings remain active parts of modern towns and cities rather than static monuments. The photograph is relevant to local events, visitor economy, public realm, tourism and the way town centres use festivals and temporary activity to draw people back into shared civic spaces. With no people count recorded, the value is strongest as an editorial record of place, object, building, sign, service, landscape or public environment.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E2A202 - Editorial close-up of bubble tea and coffee shop signage outside Brick Lane Coffee Shop at 47 Brick Lane in Spitalfields, East London. The photograph shows a colourful projecting sign advertising bubble tea above branded Brick Lane Coffee Shop signage on a busy commercial frontage in one of the capital's best-known food, drink, and street culture districts. With its playful illustrated cup graphic, bright pastel tones, and layered shopfront presentation, the image captures the visual language of modern takeaway drinks culture in an area long associated with independent businesses, tourism, changing food trends, and highly recognisable urban identity.
This is a useful documentary and editorial image for themes such as Brick Lane cafes, London bubble tea, East End hospitality, shop signs, cafe branding, street-level retail, modern consumer culture, and the evolving food-and-drink economy of inner London. It works well because it focuses tightly on signage and branding rather than the whole street, making it suitable for searches linked to commercial identity, independent coffee shops, dessert drinks, milk tea trends, and local business visibility. The image also reflects the changing character of Brick Lane, where long-established East End trading patterns now sit alongside newer international food fashions, youth-oriented drinks brands, and visually distinctive hospitality businesses competing for attention in a dense urban environment.
As a stock image, it is relevant for travel, publishing, lifestyle, food-and-drink journalism, local business coverage, hospitality commentary, and broader features about London high streets and multicultural retail. The combination of brick architecture, projecting signs, and recognisable Bubble Tea wording gives the image strong search value for London cafe culture, East London street scenes, takeaway branding, and contemporary urban consumption. It offers a grounded, location-specific view of the small-scale commercial details

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3BKDJGP - The exterior of R & C McCormack Celtic Jewellers on Grafton Street in Dublin city centre, Ireland. The shopfront features distinctive green branding with gold lettering advertising Celtic jewellery, a style closely associated with Irish heritage and traditional design motifs.
Grafton Street is Dublin's principal pedestrianised shopping street and one of the busiest retail locations in Ireland, frequented by shoppers, tourists, and street performers. The image shows the jeweller's metal shutter closed, with passers-by visible nearby, capturing an everyday moment in the city's commercial life.
Independent jewellery shops such as this have long been part of Dublin's retail landscape, serving both local customers and visitors seeking Irish-made or Irish-themed jewellery. The scene also reflects wider changes affecting high streets in major cities, including shifting shopping habits, tourism patterns, and economic pressures on bricks-and-mortar retailers.
This photograph is suitable for editorial use illustrating Dublin retail streets, Irish jewellery businesses, city-centre commerce, tourism, independent shops, urban change, and contemporary life on one of Ireland's most recognisable streets.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3BR1786 - The Dublin Writers Museum was a museum of literary history in Dublin, Ireland. It opened in November 1991, and was hailed as an iconic museum in Dublin. It closed during the Covid-19 pandemic, and was brought to an end in 2022 without ever reopening.
Maurice Gorham, journalist and author, proposed the idea of starting a literary museum in the 1970s. The museum was opened on 18 November 1991, run by Dublin Tourism. Its aim was to promote interest in Irish literature as a whole and in the lives and works of individual Irish writers. It was located in 18 Parnell Square, and consisted of two eighteenth-century buildings. The main building, a red-brick Georgian-style house, had been used by George Jameson, son of the Jameson family, who owned Jameson Irish Whiskey. Michael Stapleton, stuccodore from Dublin, decorated part of the main building. Gorham Library, which commemorated its founder Gorham, was also set up on the upper floor. The annexed building had a coffee shop, bookshop, and lecture room
Having opened in 1991, the museum closed in March 2020 due to the Covid-19 lockdown. It did not reopen. Set up by Dublin Tourism, it was transferred to Bord Failte in 2012. Bord Failte commissioned a report on its future in 2020, which concluded that it had become dated relative to modern expectations (no longer meets the expectation of the contemporary museum visitor), so in 2022, the decision to end the operation permanently was made. Two staff retired, two were allocated other Bord Failte duties. Announcements on the future of owned and lent artifacts were to follow. Fáilte Ireland is still in charge of the museum artifacts after its closing.
Stained glass windows
It is proposed that the building in 18 Parnell Square should be used as a museum to commemorate Harry Clarke, a stained glass artist from Dublin.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EGWM7A - A wide panoramic view looks across the interior ruins of Ludlow Castle in Shropshire on a bright sunny day, with dramatic clouds, blue sky, green lawns, stone towers, curtain walls and visitors exploring the medieval fortress. The elevated viewpoint from the ramparts shows the scale of the castle complex, including the courtyards, surviving towers, domestic ranges and defensive walls that made Ludlow one of the key power bases of the Welsh Marches. Built as a Norman border stronghold after the Conquest, Ludlow Castle became closely linked with the de Lacy and Mortimer families, the Wars of the Roses, Tudor government and the Council of the Marches. Its position above the River Teme and close to the Welsh border gave it military, administrative and symbolic importance, while its later ruined state has made it one of Shropshire's most atmospheric heritage attractions. The image is useful for editorial coverage of UK tourism, summer days out, family attractions, school holidays, domestic travel, staycations, medieval history, castle conservation, heritage admission costs, visitor economy and debates about reducing VAT or other taxes to make leisure and cultural visits more affordable during cost of living pressure. The photograph also works for stories on English heritage, Welsh Borders history, historic market towns, rural tourism, Shropshire breaks, educational trips, outdoor attractions and the economic value of castles, gardens, museums and historic houses to local communities. The bright sunlight and open-air setting emphasise Ludlow Castle as a place for walking, learning, photography and family exploration rather than a static ruin. With no close identifiable people, the scene can be used widely as a generic yet strongly located image of British heritage tourism, showing how medieval architecture, landscape views, history and good weather combine to make a classic UK summer day out.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RWDK14 - The Dominic Cummings scandal, or the Dominic Cummings affair, was a series of events involving the British political strategist Dominic Cummings during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom. The events include at least one journey that Cummings, then-chief adviser of Prime Minister Boris Johnson, and his family made from London to County Durham after the start of a national lockdown in March 2020 while they were experiencing symptoms of COVID-19.
Reports of the trip first emerged in May 2020 following investigations by the Daily Mirror and The Guardian. Questions arose about whether the conduct of Cummings and his wife was lawful and appropriate within the framework of government advice and guidance, given that the public were ordered to stay at home, that all non-essential travel was forbidden during the lockdown, and that infected persons had been instructed to self-isolate.
Cummings denied he had broken any rules in a press conference a few days later. Durham Constabulary investigated the trip, concluding there may have been a minor breach, but did not take any further action. The scandal led to criticism from Members of Parliament (MPs) within and outside the ruling Conservative Party, backlash in the media and from the public, and calls for Cummings to be sacked or resign. Prominent politicians in the government, including Johnson, rejected these and expressed support for Cummings. Polling suggested that support for the Conservative Party and confidence in the British government's pandemic response fell as a result of the scandal.

The location is 2-4 Rainford Gardens, Liverpool , Merseyside, England, UK, L2 6PT. The picture is not just a record shot: it contains the vehicle livery, route branding, boarding point and street setting that make the public transport subject specific rather than generic. Mathew Street and the Cavern Quarter are inseparable from Beatles tourism, live music heritage, pub culture and Liverpool's visitor economy, with the narrow streets often busy on summer days. It could support features on pubs, beer, leisure, nightlife, tourism, heritage streets, local economies, independent hospitality and the pressures facing town-centre venues. For image buyers, the value is in the combination of recognisable subject, readable wording, location evidence and a plain documentary style that can be dropped into news, magazine, web, council, housing, transport, heritage or commercial commentary without looking over-produced. Searchable related phrases include Liverpool, city, tourism, attraction, Mathew St, Cavern Quarter, cavern, crowds, busy, centre, Merseyside, tourist, plus wider ideas such as local identity, public realm, urban detail, social history, commercial change, everyday Britain, documentary photography and place-based storytelling. The composition gives designers scope for captions, page furniture, social media crops, report covers and article thumbnails, while the detailed captioning makes it more discoverable for searches using both specific place names and broader themes. It also has a useful contemporary feel, because it shows how long-standing places, policies, products or institutions are encountered by ordinary people in daily life.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RH8AGP - The Cathedral Church of St Peter and St Wilfrid, commonly known as Ripon Cathedral, and until 1836 known as Ripon Minster, is a cathedral in Ripon, North Yorkshire, England. Founded as a monastery by monks of the Irish tradition in the 660s, it was refounded as a Benedictine monastery by St Wilfrid in 672. The church became collegiate in the tenth century, and acted as a mother church within the large Diocese of York for the remainder of the Middle Ages. The present church is the fourth, and was built between the 13th and 16th centuries. In 1836 the church became the cathedral for the Diocese of Ripon. In 2014 the Diocese was incorporated into the new Diocese of Leeds, and the church became one of three co-equal cathedrals of the Bishop of Leeds.
The cathedral is notable architecturally for its gothic west front in the Early English style, considered one of the best of its type, as well as the Geometric east window. The seventh-century crypt of Wilfrid's church is a significant example of early Christian architecture in England. The cathedral has Grade I listed building status.
Saint Wilfrid was buried in this church near the high altar. Devastated by the English king Eadred in AD 948 as a warning to the Archbishop of York, only the crypt of Wilfrid's church survived but today this tiny 7th-century chapel rests complete beneath the later grandeur of Archbishop Roger de Pont l'Evêque's 12th century minster. A second minster soon arose at Ripon, but it too perished this time in 1069 at the hands of William the Conqueror. Thomas of Bayeux, first Norman Archbishop of York, then instigated the construction of a third church, traces of which were incorporated into the later chapter house of Roger's minster
The minster finally became a cathedral (the church where the Bishop has his cathedra or throne) in 1836, the focal point of the newly created Anglican Diocese of Ripon the first to be established since the Reformation

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFJ33H - A view across Belfast Harbour showing moored boats and small working vessels in the foreground, with the distinctive angular form of Titanic Belfast rising in the background. The museum stands on the site of the former Harland and Wolff shipyard in the Titanic Quarter, an area central to Belfast's shipbuilding history.
Titanic Belfast is a major cultural and tourism landmark, opened as part of the wider regeneration of Belfast's historic docklands. The building's faceted aluminium-clad design references the hull forms of ships and the industrial heritage of the surrounding area, where RMS Titanic was designed and built in the early twentieth century.
The harbour remains an active maritime environment, combining leisure craft, working boats, and commercial activity alongside cultural attractions and new residential and commercial development. This juxtaposition highlights the transformation of Belfast's waterfront from heavy industry to a mixed-use urban quarter focused on tourism, heritage, and economic renewal.
Photographed in daylight under a cloudy sky, the image documents both the historic and contemporary character of Belfast Harbour. It is suitable for editorial use illustrating maritime heritage, urban regeneration, Northern Ireland tourism, and the continuing evolution of former industrial docklands.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFJ33J - The SS Nomadic, officially named Nomadic Cherbourg, photographed bow-on while moored in Hamilton Dock in the Titanic Quarter of Belfast, Northern Ireland. The dock is located off Queen's Road, postcode BT3 9DT, adjacent to the wider Titanic Quarter redevelopment and within walking distance of Titanic Belfast at 1 Olympic Way, BT3 9EP.
Built in 1911 by Harland and Wolff, the SS Nomadic is the last remaining White Star Line vessel and served as a tender to RMS Titanic, ferrying first- and second-class passengers to the liner at Cherbourg. The ship later had a varied working life before being restored and returned to Belfast as a key maritime heritage attraction.
Behind the vessel stands Titanic Belfast, the landmark museum commemorating the city's shipbuilding history and the story of RMS Titanic. The juxtaposition of the preserved ship within the historic dry dock and the modern museum building highlights the transformation of Belfast's former industrial docklands into a major cultural and tourism destination.
Photographed in daylight under a cloudy sky, the image documents both historic and contemporary elements of Belfast Harbour. It is suitable for editorial use covering maritime history, heritage conservation, tourism, urban regeneration, and Northern Ireland's industrial legacy.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFJ348 - A metal sculpture of Charlie Chaplin stands beside the SS Nomadic in the Titanic Quarter of Belfast, Northern Ireland. The artwork is located close to Titanic Belfast on Olympic Way, postcode BT3 9EP, within the regenerated docklands area that once formed part of the Harland and Wolff shipyard.
The statue depicts Charlie Chaplin in his iconic Little Tramp persona, complete with bowler hat and cane, rendered in cut steel with a weathered finish. Chaplin, one of the most influential figures in early cinema, symbolises the global cultural impact of silent film and twentieth-century popular entertainment.
The SS Nomadic, moored nearby, is the last remaining White Star Line ship and served as a tender to RMS Titanic, transporting passengers to and from the liner in Cherbourg. The proximity of the sculpture to the historic vessel highlights the Titanic Quarter's blend of maritime heritage, public art, and contemporary cultural tourism.
Photographed outdoors in daylight, with cobbled dock surfaces and harbour features visible, the image documents the reuse of historic docklands as a visitor destination. It is suitable for editorial use relating to film history, public art, tourism in Northern Ireland, maritime heritage, and the ongoing regeneration of Belfast's waterfront.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFJ36E - Entrance to the Titanic Experience exhibition within Titanic Belfast, located at 1 Olympic Way, Titanic Quarter, Belfast, Northern Ireland, postcode BT3 9EP. The image shows internal wayfinding signage and access routes leading visitors into the main exhibition galleries of the landmark maritime museum.
Titanic Belfast occupies the former Harland and Wolff shipyard site where RMS Titanic was designed and constructed in the early twentieth century. The Titanic Experience forms the core visitor journey, guiding audiences through Belfast's shipbuilding heritage, the construction of the ship, its launch, maiden voyage, sinking, and lasting global legacy.
The contemporary interior combines timber finishes, bold typography, and open circulation spaces, reflecting the museum's role as both a cultural institution and a major international tourist attraction. Escalators and stairways visible in the image illustrate the structured visitor flow through the multi-level exhibition spaces.
Photographed indoors under artificial lighting, the image documents a key entry point within one of Northern Ireland's most visited attractions. It is suitable for editorial use relating to tourism, maritime history, museum architecture, visitor experience design, and the regeneration of Belfast's historic docklands.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFJ387 - A view across Belfast Harbour showing moored boats and small working vessels in the foreground, with the distinctive angular form of Titanic Belfast rising in the background. The museum stands on the site of the former Harland and Wolff shipyard in the Titanic Quarter, an area central to Belfast's shipbuilding history.
Titanic Belfast is a major cultural and tourism landmark, opened as part of the wider regeneration of Belfast's historic docklands. The building's faceted aluminium-clad design references the hull forms of ships and the industrial heritage of the surrounding area, where RMS Titanic was designed and built in the early twentieth century.
The harbour remains an active maritime environment, combining leisure craft, working boats, and commercial activity alongside cultural attractions and new residential and commercial development. This juxtaposition highlights the transformation of Belfast's waterfront from heavy industry to a mixed-use urban quarter focused on tourism, heritage, and economic renewal.
Photographed in daylight under a cloudy sky, the image documents both the historic and contemporary character of Belfast Harbour. It is suitable for editorial use illustrating maritime heritage, urban regeneration, Northern Ireland tourism, and the continuing evolution of former industrial docklands.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RFJ39Y - This image shows the outdoor seating area of McHugh's Bar in Queen's Square, Belfast city centre. Established in 1711, McHugh's is widely regarded as the oldest pub in Belfast and remains a popular meeting place for locals, office workers, and visitors. The pub's distinctive green-painted frontage is decorated with hanging flower baskets, reinforcing its traditional Irish pub character.
The photograph was taken in bright summer conditions, with strong sunlight and leafy shadows falling across the pavement. Patrons are seated at outdoor tables beneath branded Magners umbrellas, while others stand and chat nearby, creating a relaxed and sociable atmosphere typical of warm-weather drinking in the city centre.
The surrounding streetscape combines historic buildings with modern urban life, reflecting Belfast's layered architectural and cultural history. McHugh's long-established presence at Queen's Square places it close to major landmarks such as the Albert Memorial Clock and the waterfront area, making it a familiar and well-photographed feature of the city.
The image captures everyday pub culture in Belfast, blending historic continuity with contemporary social life, and highlighting the enduring role of traditional bars as informal public spaces within Northern Ireland's capital.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDW6 - This image shows the interior of the Greenwich Foot Tunnel, an underground pedestrian passage linking Greenwich with the Isle of Dogs beneath the River Thames in London. Opened in 1902, the tunnel remains an important piece of public transport infrastructure, used daily by commuters, residents, and visitors.
The photograph captures the distinctive curved, white-tiled interior of the tunnel, with its strong sense of perspective drawing the eye toward the far end where people are walking through the passage. On the left wall, a large red sign clearly lists prohibited activities, including cycling, skating, and littering, and instructs users to keep left, reflecting the need to manage shared public space safely in a confined environment.
The presence of pedestrians of different ages highlights the tunnel's continued relevance as a free, non-motorised crossing of the Thames, supporting walking and sustainable urban movement. The lighting and tiled surfaces emphasise the utilitarian, early-20th-century engineering character of the structure.
Taken indoors under artificial lighting, this image is well suited to editorial use covering London transport infrastructure, historic engineering, pedestrian mobility, sustainable travel, urban planning, and everyday life along the River Thames.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R3JR64 - This image shows passengers travelling on a long underground escalator within the Budapest Metro system in Hungary. The steep, extended escalator descends deep below street level, a distinctive feature of several Budapest metro lines built during the socialist era, designed to function both as mass transit infrastructure and civil defence shelters.
The tunnel-like station interior is lined with pale panels and evenly spaced lighting, creating a strong sense of depth and perspective as commuters move steadily up and down the escalator. People of different ages and backgrounds are visible, reflecting the everyday use of the metro by residents and visitors alike as part of daily city life in Budapest.
The photograph was taken indoors under artificial lighting, capturing a typical moment of urban movement rather than a staged scene. The converging lines of the escalator, walls, and ceiling draw the eye towards the centre of the frame, emphasising scale, motion, and the functional design of underground transport systems.
This image is suitable for editorial use illustrating themes of public transport, urban infrastructure, commuting, European city life, travel, tourism, and the role of metro systems in supporting sustainable mobility in major cities.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2PHNGM2 - Bacharach (also known as Bacharach am Rhein) is a town in the Mainz-Bingen district in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. It belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde of Rhein-Nahe, whose seat is in Bingen am Rhein, although that town is not within its bounds.
The original name Baccaracus suggests a Celtic origin. Above the town stands Stahleck Castle (Burg Stahleck), now a youth hostel
The town lies in the Rhine Gorge, 48 km south of Koblenz.
Bacharach is divided into several Ortsteile. The outlying centre of Steeg lies in the Steeg Valley (Steeger Tal) off to the side, away from the Rhine. This glen lies between Medenscheid and Neurath to the south and Henschhausen to the north on the heights
In the early 11th century, Bacharach had its first documentary mention. It may have been that as early as the 7th century, the kingly domain passed into Archbishop of Cologne Kunibert's ownership
pointing to this is a Kunibertskapelle (chapel) on the spot where now stands the Wernerkapelle.
Today Bacharach thrives on tourism and wine from Bacharach is still enjoying international popularity. Not to be overlooked, however, are problems arising from a shrinking population, itself brought about by a lack of prospects.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2KF7FA3 - Stonegate is a street in the city centre of York, in England, one of the streets most visited by tourists. Most of the buildings along the street are listed, meaning they are of national importance due to their architecture or history
The street roughly follows the line of the via praetoria of Eboracum, the Roman city, which ran between what are now St Helen's Square and York Minster.
The street appears to have lost importance in the Anglian and Jorvik period. York Minster was rebuilt in the 11th century, and stone for it was brought up the road, from a quay behind what is now York Guildhall. This appears to have brought the street back to prominence, and new building plots were laid adjoining the north-eastern part of the street. This part of the street lay in the Liberty of St Peter's, associated with the Minster, and many of its buildings belonged to the church, the whole area soon becoming built up, mostly with tenements. By 1215, there were houses for the prebends of Ampleforth, Barnby, Bramham and North Newbald
The street was known as Stonegate by 1119, probably named for stone paving, which would have been unique in the city at the time, although an alternative theory links the name to the stone hauled up to the Minster.
Because of the location of the street, it has historically been used for civic processions, from the York Guildhall to the Minster. It was also the site where three of the historic York Mystery Plays were performed. In 1570, Guy Fawkes was born at a house on the street.
Nikolaus Pevsner described the street as perhaps the most attractive [street in the city], and one of the busiest. Narrow, quite long, and with a variety of good things. Due to its popularity with tourists, the street was pedestrianised in 1974. It was repaved in York stone in 2020
Most of the buildings along the street are listed. Among the most notable on the north-west side are numbers 54, 56, and 58 Stonegate, 14th-century timber-framed buildings

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R59WT7 - A stylised graphic illustration of York Minster, the iconic Gothic cathedral located on Deangate in the historic city of York, North Yorkshire, postcode YO1 7HH. The artwork presents the west front of the cathedral using simplified architectural forms and strong contrasting colours, giving the medieval structure a contemporary visual interpretation.
York Minster is one of the largest and most significant Gothic cathedrals in northern Europe, with construction spanning from the thirteenth to the fifteenth centuries. It is renowned for its monumental scale, pointed arches, towers, and extensive medieval stained glass, including the famous Great West Window.
The graphic style of the image abstracts and exaggerates architectural features such as towers, tracery, and arches, creating a modern poster-like aesthetic while retaining the instantly recognisable silhouette of the cathedral. This approach reflects how historic landmarks are frequently reinterpreted in contemporary visual culture, design, and tourism marketing.
Presented against a clear blue background, the image combines heritage subject matter with modern design sensibilities. It is suitable for editorial use relating to York, English heritage, architectural illustration, graphic design, cultural landmarks, and contemporary representations of historic buildings.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R59WXB - This image shows a commemorative plaque mounted on the exterior brick wall of Micklegate House, located on Micklegate in the historic city of York. The plaque states that the building was constructed for John Bourchier (17101759) and records that his ancestor, Sir John Bourchier, was one of the signatories to the warrant for the execution of King Charles I in 1649.
The inscription directly links the building to the legacy of the English Civil War and one of the most significant moments in British constitutional history, when Charles I was tried and executed following conflict between the monarchy and Parliament. Sir John Bourchier was among those who authorised the regicide, an act that profoundly shaped the future of the English state.
Micklegate itself is one of York's most historic streets, serving for centuries as the principal ceremonial route into the city. Buildings along the street reflect York's layered political, religious, and social history, and plaques such as this play an important role in interpreting that past for residents and visitors.
Photographed close-up to show the plaque text and brickwork clearly, the image provides a strong documentary record of heritage interpretation, civil war memory, and urban historical storytelling. It is well suited for editorial use covering British history, historic buildings, commemorative plaques, monarchy and regicide, and the historic streets of York.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R59WXN - This image shows a brass fox door knocker mounted on a brightly painted purple door in the historic city of York. The sculpted fox head, complete with pointed ears and elongated form, reflects decorative metalwork traditions often found on period properties and characterful urban homes.
Animal-shaped door knockers have long been used in Britain as both functional objects and expressions of personality, status, or humour. Fox imagery in particular is associated with countryside symbolism, folklore, and English heritage, making it a popular decorative motif.
The surface of the brass shows natural wear and patina, suggesting age and regular use, while the bold purple paint provides a striking contemporary contrast to the traditional metalwork. Details like this contribute to York's reputation for visually rich streetscapes, where historic architecture and individual expression sit side by side.
Photographed close-up to emphasise texture, form, and colour, the image is well suited for editorial use covering British design details, heritage housing, architectural features, quirky street photography, and the character of historic English cities.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R59X28 - This image shows the York waterfront along the River Ouse on a warm summer day, with people seated at riverside tables and benches enjoying food, drink, and sunshine. The river forms a central feature of York's historic landscape and has shaped the city's development for centuries.
The riverside buildings visible along the bank reflect York's long architectural history, with a mix of historic inns, houses, and commercial premises now serving as cafes, pubs, and restaurants. During the summer months, this stretch of the river becomes a focal point for social activity, tourism, and leisure.
The River Ouse flows through the heart of York and remains both an asset and a challenge for the city, celebrated for its scenic value while also associated with seasonal flooding. Images such as this capture the positive, everyday relationship between the city and its river during periods of good weather.
Photographed in bright daylight with clear skies, the image is well suited for editorial use illustrating UK tourism, historic cities, riverside leisure, British summer lifestyle, and urban waterfront regeneration.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R59X4P - This image shows The Kings Arms, a well-known traditional public house located beside the River Ouse in the historic centre of York. The pub is a familiar landmark on King's Staith and is popular with both residents and visitors, particularly during warm summer weather when outdoor seating is in use.
The Kings Arms occupies a characterful historic building and is closely associated with riverside life in York. Its proximity to the river means it is also known for periodic flooding, an issue that has become part of its local identity and media profile over the years.
In this scene, people are gathered outside the pub enjoying drinks and conversation under clear blue skies, reflecting the social role of English pubs as informal community meeting places. The visible pub sign reinforces its identity as a long-established and recognisable venue within the city.
With York's historic riverside architecture and pedestrian activity in the background, the image captures everyday leisure and tourism in one of England's most visited historic cities. It is well suited for editorial use covering British pub culture, urban leisure, tourism, riverside life, and summer social scenes in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M7JH3T - The Pittville Pump Room was the last and largest of the spa buildings to be built in Cheltenham.
The benefits of Cheltenham's mineral waters had been recognised since 1716, but not until after the arrival of Henry Skillicorne in 1738 did serious exploitation of their potential as an attraction begin. After the visit to Cheltenham in 1788 of King George III, the town became increasingly fashionable, and wells were opened up at several points round the town. Pittville, the vision of Joseph Pitt, was a planned 'new town' development of the 1820s, in which the centre-piece was (and remains) a pump-room where the waters of one of the more northerly wells could be taken.
The Pump
The Pump Room was built by the architect John Forbes between 1825 and 1830. It is a Grade I listed building standing at the northern end of Pittville Lawn with landscaped grounds running down to a lake. The building contains the original Pump, made of marble and scagliola, to which the waters are today fed by electric pumping.
The building has a colonnade of Ionic columns
the interior houses a ballroom on its ground floor. Further Ionic columns support a gallery under a dome from which music might be played
on upper floors there were a billiard room, library and reading room. Above the colonnade are three statues, by Lucius Gahagen, erected in 1827, of the goddess Hygieia, Aesculapius and Hippocrates.
The Pump Room and its grounds were managed during the 19th century by a succession of lessees, who offered the typical fare of pleasure gardens including menageries, exhibitions and balloon ascents. However the concession did not prove lucrative. Eventually Pitt himself went bankrupt and in 1890 the Room and the grounds passed into the ownership of the town council.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RD243N - This image shows a crowded late summer scene on Church Street in the historic old town of Whitby, North Yorkshire. The narrow pedestrian street is lined with traditional buildings and independent shops, many associated with Whitby Jet jewellery, local crafts, and tourism-related retail.
The photograph captures a busy period, likely during the tourist season, with visitors filling the street as they walk, browse shops, and explore the town centre. People of different ages are visible, dressed for cool but settled weather, suggesting a typical day for visitors to this popular seaside destination.
Church Street forms one of Whitby's main tourist routes, linking the harbour area with attractions such as the Museum of Whitby Jet and the climb toward Whitby Abbey. Overhead wires, hanging shop signs, and historic facades contribute to the strong sense of place and heritage.
The image documents the impact of tourism on a small historic town, illustrating both the economic importance of visitors and the pressures of crowding in narrow medieval streets during peak periods. It reflects Whitby's enduring appeal as a coastal heritage destination in northern England.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RD246R - Whitby is a seaside town, port and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England. The town is on the Yorkshire Coast at the mouth of the River Esk. It has a maritime, mineral and tourist economy. The fishing port emerged during the Middle Ages, supporting important herring and whaling fleets, and was where Captain Cook learned seamanship and, coincidentally, where his first vessel to explore the southern ocean, HMS Endeavour was built. Jet and alum were mined locally, and Whitby jet, which was mined by the Romans and Victorians, became fashionable during the 19th century.
The earliest record of a permanent settlement is in 656 AD, when as Streanæshealh it was the place where Oswy, the Christian king of Northumbria, founded the first abbey, under the abbess Hilda. The Synod of Whitby was held there in 664 AD. In 867 AD, Viking raiders destroyed the monastery. The town's East Cliff is home to the ruins of Whitby Abbey, where Cædmon, the earliest recognised English poet, lived. Another monastery was founded in 1078 AD. It was in this period that the town gained its current name, Whitby (from white settlement in Old Norse). In the following centuries Whitby functioned as a fishing settlement until, in the 18th century, it developed as a port and centre for shipbuilding and whaling, the trade in locally mined alum, and the manufacture of Whitby jet jewellery. Tourism started in Whitby during the Georgian period and developed with the arrival of the railway in 1839.
Its attraction as a tourist destination is enhanced by the proximity of the high ground of the North York Moors national park and the heritage coastline and by association with the horror novel Dracula. The abbey ruin at the top of the East Cliff is the town's oldest and most prominent landmark. Other significant features include the swing bridge, which crosses the River Esk and the harbour, which is sheltered by the grade II listed East and West piers.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0GF8X - Penny Lane is a road in the south Liverpool suburb of Mossley Hill. The name also applies to the area surrounding its junction with Smithdown Road and Allerton Road, and to the roundabout at Smithdown Place that was the location for a major bus terminus, originally an important tram junction of Liverpool Corporation Tramways. The roundabout was a frequent stopping place for John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison during their years as schoolchildren and students. Bus journeys via Penny Lane and the area itself subsequently became familiar elements in the early years of the LennonMcCartney songwriting partnership. In 2009, McCartney reflected:
Penny Lane was kind of nostalgic, but it was really [about] a place that John and I knew ... I'd get a bus to his house and I'd have to change at Penny Lane, or the same with him to me, so we often hung out at that terminus, like a roundabout. It was a place that we both knew, and so we both knew the things that turned up in the story.
Lennon's original lyrics for In My Life had included a reference to Penny Lane. Soon after the Beatles recorded In My Life in October 1965, McCartney mentioned to an interviewer that he wanted to write a song about Penny Lane. A year later, he was spurred to write the song once presented with Lennon's Strawberry Fields Forever. McCartney also cited Dylan Thomas's nostalgic poem Fern Hill as an inspiration for Penny Lane. Lennon co-wrote the lyrics with McCartney. He recalled in a 1970 interview: The bank was there, and that was where the trams sheds were and people waiting and the inspector stood there, the fire engines were down there.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0GF9B - Penny Lane is a road in the south Liverpool suburb of Mossley Hill. The name also applies to the area surrounding its junction with Smithdown Road and Allerton Road, and to the roundabout at Smithdown Place that was the location for a major bus terminus, originally an important tram junction of Liverpool Corporation Tramways. The roundabout was a frequent stopping place for John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison during their years as schoolchildren and students. Bus journeys via Penny Lane and the area itself subsequently became familiar elements in the early years of the LennonMcCartney songwriting partnership. In 2009, McCartney reflected:
Penny Lane was kind of nostalgic, but it was really [about] a place that John and I knew ... I'd get a bus to his house and I'd have to change at Penny Lane, or the same with him to me, so we often hung out at that terminus, like a roundabout. It was a place that we both knew, and so we both knew the things that turned up in the story.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0KX8B - Penny Lane is a song by the English rock band the Beatles that was released in February 1967 as a double A-side single with Strawberry Fields Forever. It was written primarily by Paul McCartney and credited to the LennonMcCartney songwriting partnership. The lyrics refer to Penny Lane, a street in Liverpool, and make mention of the sights and characters that McCartney recalled from his upbringing in the city.
The Beatles began recording Penny Lane in December 1966, intending it as a song for their album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Instead, after it was issued as a single to satisfy record company demand for a new release, the band adhered to their policy of omitting previously released singles from their albums. The song features numerous modulations that occur mid-verse and between its choruses. Session musician David Mason played a piccolo trumpet solo for its bridge section

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JP5RXB - Lymm is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Warrington, Cheshire, England, which incorporates the hamlets of Booths Hill, Broomedge, Church Green, Deansgreen, Heatley, Heatley Heath, Little Heatley, Oughtrington, Reddish, Rushgreen and Statham. At the 2021 United Kingdom census it had a population of 12,700.
History
The name Lymm, of Celtic origins, means a place of running water and is likely derived from an ancient stream that ran through the village centre. The village appears as Limme in the Domesday Book of 1086.
Lymm was an agricultural village until the Industrial Revolution, which brought the Bridgewater Canal and the Warrington and Altrincham Junction Railway to the village. The village played a prominent role within the salt extraction industry, gold beating industry and cotton industry (many of its inhabitants were fustian cutters).
Lymm Heritage Centre, which opened in June 2017, is in the centre of the village on Legh Street. It hosts exhibitions related to local history as well as activities for schools and visitors.
Morris dancing was taking place in Lymm as early as 1817, often appearing in the village at Rushbearing time throughout the Victorian era. Morris dancing[7] continues to feature within the village with Lymm Morris dancers frequently performing during Rushbearing[8] and at the various annual village festivals including the Lymm May Queen Festival, Lymm Festival and Lymm Dickensian Festival.
In 2017, Lymm was voted as one of the 'Best Places to Live' according to The Times and The Sunday Times list. In 2023, the village was voted as one of Britains 'Most Desirable Towns' according to The Daily Telegraph

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JPMWNB - This is a 17th Century timber-framed building situated in the heart of Hereford High Town. Built in 1621, it began life as a butcher's home and shop and finished its commercial life in the hands of Lloyds Bank in the late 1920s. Since 1929 it has been a fascinating museum giving an insight into daily life in Jacobean times. It is furnished in period style with an internationally important collection of English oak furniture and there are interesting pieces in every room. Of particular interest to many visitors are the rare wall-paintings, the four-poster bed and the baby-walkers. There are hands-on activities for children including replica clothing and puzzles. For those unable to climb the stairs, a virtual tour is situated on the fully-accessible ground floor.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJPKKK - Carnaby Street is a pedestrianised shopping street in Soho in the City of Westminster, Central London. Close to Oxford Street and Regent Street, it is home to fashion and lifestyle retailers, including many independent fashion boutiques.
Streets crossing, or meeting with, Carnaby Street are, from south to north, Beak Street, Broadwick Street, Kingly Court, Ganton Street, Marlborough Court, Lowndes Court, Fouberts Place, Little Marlborough Street and Great Marlborough Street. The nearest London Underground station is Oxford Circus.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M07AA2 - Horse Guards Parade is a large parade ground off Whitehall in central London. It is the site of the annual ceremonies of Trooping the Colour, which commemorates the monarch's official birthday, and the Beating Retreat.
Horse Guards Parade was formerly the site of the Palace of Whitehall's tiltyard, where tournaments (including jousting) were held in the time of Henry VIII. It was also the scene of annual celebrations of the birthday of Queen Elizabeth I. The area has been used for a variety of reviews, parades and other ceremonies since the 17th century.
The adjacent Horse Guards building was once the Headquarters of the British Army. The Duke of Wellington was based in Horse Guards when he was Commander-in-Chief of the British Army. The current General Officer Commanding London District still occupies the same office and uses the same desk. Wellington also had living quarters within the building, which today are used as offices
The parade ground is open on the west side, where it faces Horse Guards Road and St James's Park. It is enclosed to the north by the Admiralty Citadel and the Admiralty Extension building, to the east by Admiralty House, William Kent's Horse Guards (formerly the headquarters of the British Army) and the rear of Dover House (home of the Scotland Office), and to the south by Kent's Treasury building (now used by the Cabinet Office), garden walls of 10 Downing Street (the official residence and office of the British Prime Minister) and Mountbatten Green before the Foreign and Commonwealth Office's west wing. Access to the south side is restricted for national security.
On the east side, Horse Guards Parade is normally accessible to the public from Whitehall through the arches of Horse Guards
A number of military monuments and trophies ring the outside of the parade ground, including:
To the west, beside St James's Park, the Guards Memorial, designed by the sculptor Gilbert Ledward in 192326

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M0F6M4 - A group of tourists pose for a photo outside the Notting Hill Bookshop on Blenheim Crescent in West London. The shopfront sign reading NOTTING HILL BOOKSHOP dominates the top of the frame, making the location instantly recognisable. Several people stand together on the pavement in front of the entrance, smiling and facing the camera while another visitor holds up a smartphone to take the picture. The scene captures a familiar moment of modern city tourism: a well known, highly photographed spot where visitors queue, gather, and take turns to get the classic souvenir image.
The bookshop is widely associated with film tourism in Notting Hill, drawing fans who want to visit a place linked to the area's romantic-comedy screen image. Even when people are not shopping, the frontage functions as a landmark backdrop for holiday photos and social media, and the street-level setting makes it easy for passing visitors to stop briefly, pose, and move on. The image works well for editorial themes including London tourism, screen tourism, popular filming locations, and the way small independent shops can become global attractions through cinema and television.
Clothing and body language suggest a relaxed leisure visit, likely in warmer months, with short sleeves and light outfits typical of spring or summer travel. The light is diffuse daylight rather than harsh sun, and there is no obvious wet sheen on the pavement, so conditions look dry. The composition also shows the everyday reality of busy visitor spots: a crowd forming and dispersing, with people chatting, waiting, and taking photographs in quick succession.
For commercial use this picture illustrates travel behaviour, group tourism, city break culture, and the continuing appeal of Notting Hill as a destination. It is especially suitable for articles about London's most photographed places, film-linked attractions, independent retail as a tourism draw, and the experience economy where being there and capturing proof

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2MCGAX8 - The Temple Bar is a public house located at 4648 Temple Bar in the Temple Bar area of Dublin, Ireland. Standing at the corner of Temple Lane South, the first pub on the site was reputedly licensed in the early 19th century.
The pub building at 48 Temple Bar is listed by Dublin City Council on its Record of Protected Structures, and is recorded in the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage (NIAH) as being built c.1840.
History
The Temple Bar area, in which the building stands, was so-named in the 17th century, owing to its association with Sir William Temple, father of Sir John Temple, who owned a house and gardens there.
Some sources associate the public house with James Harrison, a young publican who previously worked in his father's pub grocery business at 48 City Quay, and who reputedly obtained a licence for a new pub in the area in May 1819. According to related sources, Harrison sold his business to Cornelius O'Meara, a grocer, tea, wine and spirit merchant, in 1835. O'Meara, who also had another pub at 1 Wood Quay, remained in Temple Bar for around a decade
In 1951, the Fitzgerald family purchased the property. They stayed for ten years, with William Flannery arriving in 1961.
As of 2012, the owners were the Cleary family, who purchased the pub in 1992. At that point traditional features such as the Georgian style wyatt windows were reinstated and the pub changed to its current name. The business was expanded in the first part of the 21st century with the acquisition of adjacent properties, including The Temple Bar Trading Company shop, which opened at number 46. This section features a life-size bronze statue of James Joyce and a beer garden

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AFMKCC - The Blake Statue in Bridgwater, Somerset, England was unveiled in 1900 to commemorate naval commander Robert Blake. The hollow bronze life size sculpture was crafted by F. W. Pomeroy. It is a Grade II* listed building
The hollow Bronze, statue was made by F. W. Pomeroy at a cost of £1,200. It was unveiled in 1900 by Lord Brassey. Pomeroy was a prolific British sculptor of architectural and monumental works. He was one of the so-called New Sculptors identified by Edmund Gosse in 1894 a group distinguished by a stylistic turn towards naturalism and their work in architectural sculpture.
It was erected to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the birth of Robert Blake. £1,200 had been raised from public donation to fund the statue. Blake was one of the most important military commanders of the Commonwealth of England and one of the most famous English admirals of the 17th century. He was elected as the Member of Parliament for Bridgwater in the Short Parliament. When the English Civil War broke out during the period of the Long Parliament, and having failed to be re-elected, Blake began his military career on the side of the parliamentarians despite having no substantial experience of military or naval matters. Blake was appointed general at sea in 1649, serving in the First Anglo-Dutch War and Anglo-Spanish War. Later he was made Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports.
The statue was moved to its current site in 1986 having previously stood in front of the Corn Exchange

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF606 - Canal Street, the centre of the Manchester Gay Village, is a street in Manchester city centre in North West England. The pedestrianised street, which runs along the west side of the Rochdale Canal, is lined with gay bars and restaurants. At night time, and in daytime in the warmer months, the street is filled with visitors, often including gay and lesbian tourists from all over the world. The northern end of the street meets Minshull Street and the southern meets Princess Street
part of the street looks across the Rochdale Canal into Sackville Park.
90's Focus led to several of the pubs on or near Canal Street acquiring a predominantly gay clientele. In 1991, Manto (Manchester Tomorrow) bar opened at no. 46. It was built in 1989 by Benedict Smith Architects. Unlike the other gay bars at that time, Manto had large glass windows, allowing the casual passer-by to view what was going on inside. Previously, many establishments catering for the gay community were often keen to conceal activities from the general public, but the architectural design of Manto was seen as a queer visual statement of we're here, we're queer get used to it, and a brick-and-mortar refusal to hide any more, or to remain underground and invisible.
Over the next decade, more numerous and larger bars opened along the canal side, turning Canal Street into the centre of the most successful gay village in Europe. Because of this, the Canal Street street signs are regularly defaced to read Anal Treet or Anal Street. The success was further enhanced by the use of Canal Street and its bars in several television series, including Bob and Rose and Queer as Folk, both written by Russell T Davies.

The pedestrianised street, which runs along the west side of the Rochdale Canal, is lined with gay bars and restaurants. At night time, and in daytime in the warmer months, the street is filled with visitors, often including gay and lesbian tourists from all over the world. The northern end of the street meets Minshull Street and the southern meets Princess Street
part of the street looks across the Rochdale Canal into Sackville Park.
90's Focus led to several of the pubs on or near Canal Street acquiring a predominantly gay clientele. In 1991, Manto (Manchester Tomorrow) bar opened at no. 46. It was built in 1989 by Benedict Smith Architects. Unlike the other gay bars at that time, Manto had large glass windows, allowing the casual passer-by to view what was going on inside. Previously, many establishments catering for the gay community were often keen to conceal activities from the general public, but the architectural design of Manto was seen as a queer visual statement of we're here, we're queer get used to it, and a brick-and-mortar refusal to hide any more, or to remain underground and invisible.
Over the next decade, more numerous and larger bars opened along the canal side, turning Canal Street into the centre of the most successful gay village in Europe. Because of this, the Canal Street street signs are regularly defaced to read Anal Treet or Anal Street. The success was further enhanced by the use of Canal Street and its bars in several television series, including Bob and Rose and Queer as Folk, both written by Russell T Davies.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM8T - The Royal Pavilion, also known as the Brighton Pavilion, is a Grade I listed former royal residence located in Brighton, England. Beginning in 1787, it was built in three stages as a seaside retreat for George, Prince of Wales, who became the Prince Regent in 1811. It is built in the Indo-Saracenic style prevalent in India for most of the 19th century. The current appearance of the Pavilion, with its domes and minarets, is the work of architect John Nash, who extended the building starting in 1815.
The purchase of the Royal Pavilion from Queen Victoria, by Brighton, marked the beginnings of the site's attraction as a tourist destination. The Royal Pavilion has been changed from a private residence to a public attraction under civic ownership. Today, around 400,000 people visit the Royal Pavilion annually. General filming and photography is not permitted inside the Royal Pavilion. Many of the items in the palace are on loan, in particular from HM The Queen, and one condition of the loans is that the items cannot be photographed or reproduced without prior written permission.
The Royal Pavilion is licensed as a venue for weddings. On 29 March 2014, the Royal Pavilion was host to one of a number of the first legal same-sex marriages to take place in the United Kingdom following the passage of the 2013 Same Sex Couples Act.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM98 - Brighton is a seaside resort on the south coast of England that is part of the city of Brighton and Hove, located 47 miles (76 km) south of London.
Brighton's location has made it a popular destination for tourists, renowned for its diverse communities, quirky shopping areas, large cultural, music and arts scene and its large LGBT population, leading to its recognition as the unofficial gay capital of the UK. Brighton attracted 7.5 million day visitors in 2015/16 and 4.9 million overnight visitors, and is the most popular seaside destination in the UK for overseas tourists. Brighton has also been called the UK's hippest city, and the happiest place to live in the UK
In 1985, the Borough Council described three myths about Brighton's economy. Common beliefs were that most of the working population commuted to London every day
that tourism provided most of Brighton's jobs and income
or that the borough's residents were composed entirely of wealthy theatricals and retired businesspeople rather than workers. Brighton has been an important centre for commerce and employment since the 18th century. It is home to several major companies, some of which employ thousands of people locally
as a retail centre it is of regional importance
creative, digital and new media businesses are increasingly significant
and, although Brighton was never a major industrial centre, its railway works contributed to Britain's rail industry in the 19th and 20th centuries, particularly in the manufacture of steam locomotives.
Since the amalgamation of Brighton and Hove, economic and retail data has been produced at a citywide level only. Examples of statistics include: Brighton and Hove's tourism industry contributes £380m to the economy and employs 20,000 people directly or indirectly
the city has 9,600 registered companies
and a 2001 report identified it as one of five supercities for the future. In the past couple of years tourists to Brighton and Hove have fallen.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RKMM9B - Brighton Fringe is an open-access arts festival held annually in Brighton, England. It is the largest annual arts festival in England and one of the largest fringe festivals in the world. Brighton Fringe 2018 took place from 4 May 3 June. The programme of 2018 included 1008 events at over 166 venues across 4 weeks.
Brighton Fringe runs at a similar time to Brighton Festival, and in 2013 extended its run to four weeks. In 2019, Brighton Fringe will run from 3 May-2 June.
One of the event's main objectives is to promote local talent and the arts. It also offers performers an opportunity for their event to be reviewed or picked up by promoters, as well as going on to Edinburgh. This is why anyone can put on a Brighton Fringe event. In 2011 Brighton Fringe launched the Professional Development Programme, aimed at offering workshops to aspiring performers wanting to progress in the business. In 2012, Brighton Fringe opened its own on-street box office, which provided a physical base for the arts event, selling tickets as well as being a hub for promoters and performers. They also launched Brighton in the Square, a showcase of Brighton Fringe performers at the Leicester Square Theatre in London.
As part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad, Brighton Fringe introduced the Dip Your Toe project in 2012, which featured performances in six custom-built Victorian bathing machines, which were located throughout Brighton and Hove during the month of May. In 2014, the organisation launched an Arts Council England supported scheme called Window which showcases productions suitable for touring.
Brighton Fringe is a registered charity but does not rely on public funding, in fact, less than 3% of its income is generated from public sources. The other sources of revenue include participants' registration fees, advertising, sponsorship and Friends membership.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEJ6CY - Camden Town often shortened to Camden (ambiguously also used for the much larger London Borough of Camden of which it is the central neighbourhood), is an inner city district of northwest London, 2.4 miles (3.9 km) north of the centre of London. It is one of the 35 major centres identified in the London Plan.
Laid out as a residential district from 1791 and originally part of the manor of Kentish Town and the parish of St Pancras, London, Camden Town became an important location during the early development of the railways, which reinforced its position on the London canal network. The area's industrial economic base has been replaced by service industries such as retail, tourism and entertainment. The area now hosts street markets and music venues which are strongly associated with alternative culture.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEJ6X3 - Surbiton is a suburban area of south-west London within the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. It is situated next to the River Thames, 11.0 miles south west of central London. Surbiton was formerly within the County of Surrey, but became part of Greater London in 1965 following the London Government Act 1963, together with many areas including neighbouring Kingston and Richmond.
Surbiton possesses a mixture of Art-Deco courts, more recent residential blocks and grand 19th century townhouses blending into a sea of semi-detached 20th century housing estates.
The present-day town came into existence after a plan to build a London-Southampton railway line through nearby Kingston was rejected by Kingston Council, who feared that it would be detrimental to the coaching trade. This resulted in the line being routed further south, through a cutting in the hill south of Surbiton. Surbiton railway station opened in 1838, and was originally named Kingston-upon-Railway. It was only renamed Surbiton to distinguish it from the new Kingston railway station on the Shepperton branch line, which opened on 1 January 1869. The present station has an art deco façade.
As a result, Kingston is now on a branch line, whereas passengers from Surbiton (smaller in comparison) can reach London Waterloo in about 15 minutes on a fast direct service
as well as places further afield, including Portsmouth and Southampton.
It was once home to Surbiton Studios which were owned by Stoll Pictures, before the company shifted its main production to Cricklewood Studios.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEJ623 - Motherwell railway station serves Motherwell in North Lanarkshire, Scotland. It lies on the West Coast Main Line (WCML), and is served also by Argyle Line trains of the Glasgow suburban railway network. It is the penultimate stop on the northbound WCML before Glasgow. There are four platforms of various length in use at Motherwell. The station is located next to the town's main shopping arcade, Motherwell Shopping Centre.
The current Motherwell station was built to replace an earlier station which was opened by the Caledonian Railway at nearby Orbiston. As Orbiston station was quite some distance from the rapidly expanding Motherwell town centre, the decision was taken to build a station at 'Lesmahagow Junction', the point where the Motherwell Deviation branch of the Caledonian Railway Main Line met the lines to Mossend, Hamilton and Lesmahagow. This new site was conveniently in the heart of the town.
The current station was built by British Rail during the 1970s on the site of the original to coincide with the electrification of the West Coast Main Line. It has four through platforms, crossed by two overbridges with the main buildings being above the level of the line between Platforms 2 and 3. At platform level between Platforms 2 and 3 there is also a Abellio ScotRail traincrew depot, staff car park and an office of the British Transport Police. These are accessible via a gated rampway leading to street level.
Beyond Platform 4 are some electrified sidings used for the stabling of trains overnight. Diagrams are nominally worked so that these units will only stay at Motherwell for one night before returning to their allocated depot.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEJ5K6 - The National Rail Conditions of Travel (NRCoT) are a contractual document setting out the consumer's rights and responsibilities when travelling on the National Rail railway network in Great Britain. These replaced the National Rail Conditions of Carriage (NRCoC) as of October 1st 2016.
When a train ticket is purchased, a contract is established. The NRCoT are the principal terms of that contract between traveller and train operating company (TOC), which have been established by the Rail Settlement Plan, which is part of the Association of Train Operating Companies. The document is available for public viewing at the National Rail website, and also as a free PDF download.
Additional terms do apply to travellers, primarily from two sources:
For certain ticket types (such as those purchased at discount in advance), the TOCs concerned apply additional terms and conditions on top of the NRCoT.
The NRCoT cover the entitlement and restrictions of travellers, however they are not the only document to do so. Under the Transport Act 2000 (section 219), the Railway Bylaws also apply, though more generally.
Whilst the NRCoT are referred to on all train tickets, at stations, and on internet sites selling tickets for rail travel, very few travellers ever bother to read the document, unless they find themselves in dispute with a rail company on some matter. They are, however, of use to the consumer, because they afford considerable rights to the traveller with regards ticket validity. This has become a matter of significant public interest recently, in view of the complex and convoluted pricing structure of rail tickets in Great Britain.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HDEYMA - The Europa Hotel is a four-star hotel in Great Victoria Street, Belfast, Northern Ireland. It has hosted presidents, prime ministers and celebrities.
It is known as the most bombed hotel in Europe and the most bombed hotel in the world after having suffered 36 bomb attacks during the Troubles.
The hotel, designed by architects Sydney Kaye, Eric Firkin & Partners, opened in July 1971. It was built on the site of the former Great Northern Railway station and stands 51 metres high.
During The Troubles, the hotel, where most journalists covering the Troubles stayed, was known as Europe's most bombed hotel, earning the name the Hardboard Hotel. The hotel was blown up by the Provisional IRA in 1993 and damaged so badly that it sold for only £4.4m.
The Europa Hotel became part of the Hastings Hotels group on 3 August 1993, whereupon it was announced that it would close for the first time in its 22-year history to allow for major refurbishment. Following an £8m investment, the hotel reopened in February 1994. Its first official event was the Flax Trust Ball, a gala evening for 500 local and international dignitaries. President Clinton and First Lady Hillary Clinton stayed in the hotel in November 1995
the suite used by the Clintons was subsequently renamed the Clinton Suite. The presidential entourage booked 110 rooms at the hotel.
Started in early 2008, an extension to the hotel increased the height of a rear wing by seven floors, to twelve floors, and increased bedrooms from 240 to 272. The extension was designed by Robinson McIlwaine Architects and was completed late in 2008

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H552FP - Southwark Cathedral or The Cathedral and Collegiate Church of St Saviour and St Mary Overie, Southwark, London, lies on the south bank of the River Thames close to London Bridge. It is the mother church of the Anglican Diocese of Southwark. It has been a place of Christian worship for more than 1,000 years, but a cathedral only since the creation of the diocese of Southwark in 1905.
Between 1106 and 1538 it was the church of an Augustinian priory, Southwark Priory, dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Following the dissolution of the monasteries, it became a parish church, with the new dedication of St Saviour's. The church was in the diocese of Winchester until 1877, when the parish of St Saviour's, along with other South London parishes, was transferred to the diocese of Rochester. The present building retains the basic form of the Gothic structure built between 1220 and 1420, although the nave is a late 19th-century reconstruction.
There is a large stained glass window dedicated to William Shakespeare, depicting scenes from his plays, at the base of which is an alabaster statue representing the playwright reclining, holding a quill.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy ECW4F2 - located within the Roman Walls of this Historic City of Chester. The Three Kings Tea Rooms are housed in a 'Grade Two' Listed Building which dates from the mid 17th Century.
The building is constructed around a massive inner oak frame which incorporates a thirty foot cross beam and vertical house tree over eighteen feet six inches high.
Throughout the premises the timber frames and roof trusses are exposed with many of the panels retaining their original 'wattle and daub' infill.
One of the Stairwell timbers has recently been dated as early 12th Century making it the oldest, to date, located in Chester.
The Building was originally thought to have been the Tithe Store of the Earl of Shrewsbury who at one time owned the entire block in which this property stands.
He held the title of 'Sergeant of Bridgegate' with the right to take a toll from carts using the Old Dee Bridge, the toll being three coins of the period, which bore the Kings Head, hence the buildings present name.
A recent survey suggests that Chester's famous 'Rows' might have extended to this part of the City, but the earliest documented evidence is an engraving by Bateman of 1816 showing the property with twin gables.
Over the door is a sign which reads 'Dealers in Tea and Coffee'. The Georgian facade was added at the beginning of the 19th Century after which it was sold by the Shrewsbury Estate under the 'Act of 1862'.
Since then the building has been put to various uses from a Private Dwelling to a Wine Merchants, Refreshment Rooms, Bespoke Tailors and now, rather appropriately as 'The Three Kings Tea Rooms'.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K5J0BN - The Radcliffe Camera (colloquially known as the Rad Cam or The Camera
from Latin camera, meaning 'room') is a building of the University of Oxford, England, designed by James Gibbs in neo-classical style and built in 173749 to house the Radcliffe Science Library. It is sited to the south of the Old Bodleian, north of the Church of St Mary the Virgin, and between Brasenose College to the west and All Souls College to the east. The Radcliffe Camera's circularity, its position in the heart of Oxford, and its separation from other buildings make it the focal point of the University of Oxford, and as such it is almost always included in shorthand visual representations of the university. The Radcliffe Camera is not open to the public.
The library's construction and maintenance was funded from the estate of John Radcliffe, a physician who left £40,000 upon his death in 1714. According to the terms of his will, construction only began in 1737, although the intervening period saw the complex purchase of the site. The exterior was complete in 1747 and the interior finished by 1748, although the library's opening was delayed until 13 April 1749.
Upon its completion, Francis Wise was appointed as its first librarian. Until 1810, the library housed books covering a wide range of subjects, but under George Williams it narrowed its focus to the sciences. Williams brought the library from a state of neglect up to date, although by 1850 the Radcliffe Library still lagged behind the Bodleian. It was at this point that Henry Wentworth Acland, then librarian, laid out plans for the Radcliffe Library building to merge with the university and the library's collection of books to be moved to the newly constructed Radcliffe Science Library, which were accepted by the library's trustees and the university. It was at this point that the building became known as the Radcliffe Camera, serving as a reading room for the Bodleian.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCE75F - The present market, located on Southwark Street and Borough High Street just south of Southwark Cathedral on the southern end of London Bridge, is a successor to one that originally adjoined the end of London Bridge. It was first mentioned in 1276, although the market itself claims to have existed since 1014 and probably much earlier and was subsequently moved south of St Margaret's church on the High Street. The City of London received a royal charter from Edward VI in 1550 to control all markets in Southwark (see Guildable Manor), which was confirmed by Charles II in 1671. However, the market caused such traffic congestion that, in 1754, it was abolished by an Act of Parliament.
The Act allowed for the local parishioners to set up another market on a new site, and in 1756, it began again on a 4.5-acre (18,000 m2) site in Rochester Yard. During the 19th century, it became one of London's most important food markets due to its strategic position near the riverside wharves of the Pool of London.
The retail market operates Monday to Thursday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Fridays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The wholesale market operates on all weekday mornings from 2 a.m. to 8 a.m.
Three attackers from the 2017 London Bridge attack ran to the area, where they stabbed and killed people with knives before they were shot dead by armed police. The market was then closed for 11 days following the attack

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

Forty-Six Forty-six is a Wedderburn-Etherington number, an enneagonal number and a centered triangular number. It is the sum of the totient function for the first twelve integers. 46 is the largest even integer that can't be expressed as a sum of two abundant numbers.
46 is the 13th semiprime. 46 is the third semiprime with a semiprime aliquot sum. The aliquot sequence of 46 is (46,26,16,15,9,4,3,1,0).
Since it is possible to find sequences of 46 consecutive integers such that each inner member shares a factor with either the first or the last member, 46 is an Erd\u0151s\u2013Woods number.
Its the atomic number of palladium, number of human chromosomes and the (decimal) value of the ASCII code for the period (full stop).
The number of mountains in the 46 peaks of the Adirondack mountain range. People who have climbed all of them are called 'forty-sixers'
there is also an unofficial 47th peak. Sweden uses 46 as its direct dial code.

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.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HE7M5B - The Crumlin Road Courthouse was designed by the architect Charles Lanyon and completed in 1850. It is situated across the road from the Crumlin Road Jail and the two are linked by an underground passage.
The courthouse closed in June 1998. It was sold to local investor Barry Gilligan in September 2003 for £1. His plans for the courthouse include redeveloping it as a tourist attraction and a hotel.
On Thursday 12 March 2009, the courthouse suffered significant damage in a fire and a series of further fires in August 2009 caused further massive damage to the structure, prompting questions into the cause and leaving the future of the building in question.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HE7M79 - St Anne's Cathedral, also known as Belfast Cathedral, is a cathedral of the Church of Ireland in Donegall Street, Belfast, Northern Ireland. It is unusual in serving two separate dioceses (Connor and Down and Dromore), yet being the seat of neither (it is geographically in the Diocese of Connor), it is therefore not a cathedral in the truest sense of the word, a cathedral being a church housing the seat of a bishop.[1] It is, however, titled as such. It is the focal point of the Cathedral Quarter, Belfast.
The first architect was Sir Thomas Drew, the foundation stone being laid on 6 September 1899 by the Countess of Shaftesbury. The old parish church of St Anne by Francis Hiorne of 1776 had continued in use, up until 31 December 1903, while the new cathedral was constructed around it
the old church was then demolished. The Good Samaritan window, to be seen in the sanctuary, is the only feature of the old church to be retained in the cathedral. Initially, only the nave of the cathedral was built, and this was consecrated on 2 June 1904.
In 1924 it was decided to build the west front of the cathedral as a memorial to the Ulstermen and women who had served and died in World War I. The foundation stone for this was laid by Governor of Northern Ireland, the Duke of Abercorn on 2 June 1925 and the completed facade, to an amended design by the architect Sir Charles Archibald Nicholson, was dedicated in June 1927.
In the meantime, the central crossing, in which the choir sits, was built between 1922 and 1924. The Baptistery, to plans drawn up by the late W H Lynn, who had assisted Sir Thomas Drew, was dedicated in 1928, and the Chapel of the Holy Spirit, with its beautiful mosaics depicting Saint Patrick, was dedicated on 5 July 1932, the 1500th anniversary of the arrival of St Patrick in Ireland.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HE7MAH - Titanic Belfast, here under construction 2011, is a visitor attraction and a monument to Belfast's maritime heritage on the site of the former Harland & Wolff shipyard in the city's Titanic Quarter where the RMS Titanic was built. It tells the stories of the ill-fated Titanic, which hit an iceberg and sank during her maiden voyage in 1912, and her sister ships RMS Olympic and HMHS Britannic. The building contains more than 12,000 square metres (130,000 sq ft) of floor space, most of which is occupied by a series of galleries, plus private function rooms and community facilities.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEEFA9 - Queen's University Belfast (informally Queen's or QUB) is a public research university in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The university was chartered in 1845, and opened in 1849 as Queen's College, Belfast, but has roots going back to 1810 and the Royal Belfast Academical Institution.
The university forms the focal point of the Queen's Quarter area of the city, one of Belfast's four cultural districts. It offers academic degrees at various levels and across a broad subject range, with over 300 degree programmes available. Since 1 March 2014, Patrick Johnston has been the university's 12th President and Vice-Chancellor. Its Chancellor is Thomas Moran.
Queen's is a member of the Russell Group of leading research intensive universities, the Association of Commonwealth Universities, the European University Association, Universities Ireland and Universities UK. The university is associated with two Nobel laureates and one Turing Award laureate.
Lanyon took as his source the medieval great halls of
England and the Oxbridge colleges, following the strict precedents of
the raised dais, oriel window, fireplace for the top table, and a
screened passage at the opposite end. These plans fell victim to the
original budget cuts
Lanyon's planned gallery was never built and
the panelling remained modest, the latter not helped by later
redecorations. All of this changed in 2000 with the restoration of the
Great Hall by Consarc Conservation, architects. The floor and dais
were replaced and the oriel window unblocked. New pitch pine
panelling and a screened passage with a gallery above, the
replacement of the missing end trusses, and the comprehensive
redecoration and installation of a new lighting system, have all
combined to create a warm, powerful and theatrical space at the
heart of the University. More recently, the restored organ from
Christchurch (where Sir Charles and Lady Lanyon used to worship)
has been installed in the gallery.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HE18EK - The Grand Opera House is a theatre in Belfast, Northern Ireland, designed by the most prolific theatre architect of the period, Frank Matcham. It opened on 23 December 1895.
According to the Theatres Trust, the magnificent auditorium is probably the best surviving example in the United Kingdom of the oriental style applied to theatre architecture.
The building has been damaged by bombs on several occasions, usually when the nearby Europa Hotel had been targeted. It was badly damaged by bomb blasts in 1991 and 1993. The theatre continued, however, to host musicals, plays, pantomimes and live music.
