Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E4249W - Warrington stock-photo/gotonysmith-Cycle.html?sortBy=relevant&pseudoid=237DAF28-A4ED-4448-8173-C0E81ABEEC6F Target=_Blank>Cycle Station is shown beside the town's bus interchange on Horsemarket Street, providing secure covered cycle parking in the heart of Warrington town centre. The glass-fronted shelter, green bicycle graphics, locked doors and visible parked bikes make the image a useful editorial view of active travel infrastructure, cycle security and public transport interchange. Warrington Borough Council says the facility is next to the bus station on Horsemarket Street, holds 34 bikes, is free to use and can be accessed 24 hours a day through a smartphone app. The council also says it is close to Warrington Central railway station, making it useful for commuters and shoppers who want to combine cycling with bus or rail journeys. The image is commercially useful for stories about sustainable transport, cycling infrastructure, town centre travel, secure bike parking, modal shift, low-carbon commuting, public realm improvements, local transport funding and efforts to reduce car dependency. It can also illustrate practical barriers to cycling, including fear of theft, lack of secure storage, weather exposure and the need for convenient facilities near shops, buses and trains. The visible HM Government and Warrington Borough Council branding adds relevance for articles about local authority transport projects, active travel investment, levelling-up style funding and the delivery of small but visible changes to town centre infrastructure. The shelter's transparent walls, urban reflections, bicycle racks and nearby bus interchange context show how cycling is being integrated into everyday transport networks rather than treated as a leisure-only activity. As a documentary stock image, it records a modern Warrington facility designed to make short trips, mixed-mode commuting and everyday cycling more practical.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CGCJY9 - Manchester Town Hall stands partially enclosed by temporary structures during an extensive programme of renovation and restoration in Albert Square, photographed in August 2025 under bright late-summer daylight and a blue sky with scattered cloud. The clock tower, one of the most recognisable elements of Manchester's skyline, is now visibly restored, marking a significant milestone in the long-running refurbishment project.
Completed in 1877 and designed by architect Alfred Waterhouse, Manchester Town Hall is one of the finest examples of Victorian Gothic civic architecture in Britain. The building symbolised Manchester's nineteenth-century industrial confidence and municipal ambition, housing the city's political administration and civic functions for well over a century.
The current renovation programme aims to conserve the historic structure while adapting it for modern use, addressing decades of deferred maintenance and improving accessibility, sustainability and safety. The restoration of the clock tower has been closely followed locally, as it represents both technical progress and the gradual return of a much-loved civic landmark to full prominence.
Set against the evolving public realm of Albert Square, the image reflects Manchester's broader approach to heritage-led regeneration, where historic civic buildings are preserved and repurposed rather than replaced. The photograph is well suited for editorial use covering urban regeneration, heritage conservation, public investment in historic buildings, civic identity, and the ongoing transformation of Manchester's city centre.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CGCK2M - A large yellow Ainscough mobile crane dominates Deansgate in Manchester city centre during a temporary road closure required for major lifting operations. The scene is photographed in summer 2025 under clear blue skies, strong daylight and dry conditions, typical of hot summer weather in the city.
Behind the crane rises the Beetham Tower, one of Manchester's most recognisable skyscrapers, housing the Hilton Manchester Deansgate hotel. The contrast between heavy construction machinery at street level and the sleek glass tower above highlights the scale and complexity of maintaining, adapting and developing dense urban environments.
Such operations frequently require full road closures and extensive traffic management in Manchester's core, reflecting the ongoing regeneration and vertical growth of the city. The image is well suited for editorial use covering urban development, construction logistics, infrastructure disruption, city-centre regeneration, and the practical realities of maintaining modern high-rise buildings within historic street networks.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EE4MA9 - A food delivery rider carrying a turquoise insulated delivery bag walks beneath a large John Lewis fashion advertising hoarding in Edinburgh city centre, close to the St James Quarter and Leith Street retail area. The image places a lone gig economy worker at street level below two oversized fashion models on the department store frontage, creating a strong visual contrast between high street retail branding, consumer aspiration and low-paid platform labour. It can be used to illustrate zero hours work, insecure work, self-employed courier jobs, app-based food delivery, urban employment, city centre retail, inequality, cost of living pressures, casual labour and the changing nature of work in modern Britain. The John Lewis store in Edinburgh is listed at 60 Leith Street, EH1 3SP, within the St James Quarter shopping district, an area associated with major retail, fashion, leisure and tourist footfall. This documentary street photograph also has relevance for stories about the gig economy, delivery riders, employment rights, workers' rights, trade unions, flexible working, precarious contracts, urban logistics, food delivery apps, retail advertising, outdoor media, consumer culture and the contrast between affluent shopping districts and the workers who service them. The scene appears to be photographed in daylight under bright city conditions, with the glossy hoarding, large fashion imagery and angled pavement viewpoint giving a contemporary commercial feel. The person with the delivery bag is small in the frame compared with the brand advertisement, emphasising scale, power, visibility and the social distance between luxury-style marketing and everyday service labour. The picture may suit editorial coverage of zero hours contracts, platform worker status, Scottish city centre employment, Edinburgh retail, high street fashion, delivery work, labour market insecurity and debates around fair pay, worker protection and modern consumer convenience.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EFEG1G - United Utilities sewer maintenance work in Grappenhall, Warrington, Cheshire, showing a branded green service van parked on a residential street with its side door open, safety equipment inside and a high visibility utility operative standing beside the vehicle. The image records everyday but essential infrastructure work carried out in suburban North West England, where water and wastewater services rely on inspection, repair, cleansing and maintenance of local drainage and sewer networks. Visible details include the United Utilities logo on the van, a traffic cone for roadside safety, work clothing, tools and equipment stored inside the vehicle, plus nearby homes, gardens and autumn coloured shrubs that place the activity firmly in a domestic neighbourhood setting. The photograph is useful for editorial stories about public utilities, sewer maintenance, wastewater infrastructure, drainage problems, blocked sewers, water company operations, street works, environmental services, public health infrastructure and the practical fieldwork behind household water and sewerage services. It also has value for coverage of the wider UK water sector, including investment in ageing infrastructure, sewer capacity, pollution prevention, service reliability, customer disruption, local authority street works and the visibility of essential workers in residential areas. The scene appears to be taken in cool daylight, likely autumn or early winter, with damp looking roads, muted garden colours and workers wearing warm high visibility clothing. The open van and roadside cone give the image a candid operational feel rather than a staged promotional view, making it suitable for documentary use. United Utilities is the water and wastewater company for the North West, which makes the image especially relevant to Warrington, Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire and Cumbria infrastructure stories, as well as broader features on privatised water companies, drainage maintenanc

The picture is not just a record shot: it contains a carefully staged close-up of letter tiles arranged as a readable concept phrase, photographed against a map, keyboard, dictionary page, coins or other context props rather than a plain studio background. The image can be used as a clear editorial, blog or report illustration where a concept needs to be shown visually without using a person, organisation logo or staged office scene. 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 Scrabble, letters, words, automation, worklow, workflows, processes, keyboard, laptop, letter, word, work, 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. Because the subject is clearly labelled or visually distinctive, it can also work well in search-led usage where the buyer needs immediate recognition at small web-preview size. Further SEO-friendly usage could include local services, town-centre change, heritage branding, British social history, public infrastructure, consumer behaviour, community identity and documentary evidence for newsletters, blogs, policy papers and web features.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RX17TF - Glenfield and Kennedy
(information from Glasgow University website)
Kennedy Patent Water Meter Co Ltd was formed in 1863 from a syndicate of four partners and marketed the water meter patented by Thomas Kennedy, senior, and a local clockmaker. In 1865 the Glenfield Co Ltd was formed to supply castings and undertake general foundry work. The two companies shared a site in Kilmarnock, East Ayrshire, Scotland , the derelict printworks from which Glenfield took its name.
In 1899 the two companies merged to form Glenfield & Kennedy Ltd. The major growth period was between 1871 and 1904, under the direction of Thomas Kennedy (nephew of Thomas Kennedy, senior). ˜The Glen' became an important hydraulic engineering concern in Britain , with substantial export orders to most parts of the world. It had several subsidiary companies, including:
Alley & MacLellan Ltd, founded in 1875 in Bridgeton, Glasgow, Scotland, manufactured valves and later compressors, vacuum pumps and steam engines. It was incorporated in 1902 and was acquired by Glenfield & Kennedy Ltd in the 1940s.
British Pitometer Co Ltd, incorporated in 1921 in Kilmarnock by Glenfield & Kennedy Ltd.
Hydrautomat Ltd, later Hydrautomat (1931) Ltd, incorporated in 1924 in London by Glenfield & Kennedy Ltd. Went into voluntary liquidation and reformed in 1931.
Compagnie Francaise d'appareils Glenfield & Kennedy, Paris , France , ceased trading in 1912.

Bambi pulls you into a fantasy world as Princess Diana becomes Mary Poppins, floating down from the sky with her umbrella and carpet bag to meet her grandchildren, Prince George and Princess Charlotte. Diana's carpet bag is from Harrods in recognition of Dodi al Fayed.
Bambi says I believe in this world with a sprinkling of fairy dust anything is possible, and dreams can come true.
Inspired by Prince William in a recent interview saying how sad he is that his mother never met her grandchildren and how much she would have loved them, Bambi adds If Di were here today you know she would be whispering to them Be As Naughty As You Want¦ Just Don't Get Caught .
Bambi is the pseudonym of a contemporary British street artist. Known for her stencilled graffiti works, Bambi creates street art to provide social commentary and address political concerns, often through the depiction of notable contemporary figures.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T0DAER - Rochdale Town Hall is a Victorian-era municipal building in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, England. It is widely recognised as being one of the finest municipal buildings in the country, and is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building.
The Town Hall functions as the ceremonial headquarters of Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council and houses local government departments, including the borough's civil registration office.
Built in the Gothic Revival style at a cost of £160,000 (£15.9 million in 2023), it was inaugurated for the governance of the Municipal Borough of Rochdale on 27 September 1871.
The architect, William Henry Crossland, was the winner of a competition held in 1864 to design a new Town Hall. It had a 240-foot (73 m) clock tower topped by a wooden spire with a gilded statue of Saint George and the Dragon, both of which were destroyed by fire on 10 April 1883, leaving the building without a spire for four years.
A new 190-foot (58 m) stone clock tower and spire in the style of Manchester Town Hall was designed by Alfred Waterhouse, and erected in 1887.
Architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner described the building as possessing a rare picturesque beauty. Its stained-glass windows are credited as the finest modern examples of their kind.
The building came to the attention of Adolf Hitler, who was said to have admired it so much that he wished to ship the building, brick-by-brick, to Nazi Germany had the United Kingdom been defeated in the Second World War
The Town Hall was one of several built in the textile towns of North West England following the Municipal Corporations Act 1835, but is one of only two in Greater Manchester built in the Gothic style. Between the setting of the foundation stone and the building's completion, revisions and additions were made to the original design. Money was lavished upon the decor and inventory, and the extra expenditure did not escape the ire of its critic

Cost estimates for refurbishment, M&E installation, and energy efficiency measures to keep the building in office use stand at £5m
even if this is actioned, the building would still have limitations for flexible modern working practices and energy efficiency.
The council had explored renting the building out but said: there was no demand for office space of this scale and quality
a sale was also considered but the council found market demand was not significant.
Residential is the most likely outcome for the site, and it will be built into a masterplan for an area including Scotland Road, Town Hill, and Cockhedge. The council said it would look to sell the site in future.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K7NBK6 - Street performance or busking is the act of performing in public places for gratuities. In many countries, the rewards are generally in the form of money but other gratuities such as food, drink or gifts may be given. Street performance is practiced all over the world and dates back to antiquity. People engaging in this practice are called street performers or buskers in the United Kingdom. Outside of New York, buskers is not a term generally used in American English.
Performances are anything that people find entertaining, including acrobatics, animal tricks, balloon twisting, caricatures, clowning, comedy, contortions, escapology, dance, singing, fire skills, flea circus, fortune-telling, juggling, magic, mime, living statue, musical performance, puppeteering, snake charming, storytelling or reciting poetry or prose, street art such as sketching and painting, street theatre, sword swallowing, ventriloquism and washboarding.
The first recorded instances of laws affecting buskers were in ancient Rome in 462 BC. The Law of the Twelve Tables made it a crime to sing about or make parodies of the government or its officials in public places
the penalty was death. Louis the Pious excluded histriones and scurrae, which included all entertainers without noble protection, from the privilege of justice. In 1530 Henry VIII ordered the licensing of minstrels and players, fortune-tellers, pardoners and fencers, as well as beggars who could not work. If they did not obey they could be whipped on two consecutive days.
In the United States under constitutional law and most European common law, the protection of artistic free speech extends to busking. In the U.S. and many countries, the designated places for free speech behaviour are the public parks, streets, sidewalks, thoroughfares and town squares or plazas

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R59WXF - This image shows the interior of a café in York featuring individual work pods, designed to provide quiet, semi-private spaces for customers working remotely or studying. The pods are constructed with simple, modern materials including plywood panels and muted painted surfaces, reflecting contemporary café and coworking design trends.
Visible signage lists a range of teas and drinks, reinforcing the dual purpose of the space as both a traditional coffee shop and a functional workspace. The numbered pods indicate structured seating, allowing customers to work individually while remaining within a social café environment.
Café work pods have become increasingly common in UK cities, particularly following shifts toward remote and hybrid working. They cater to freelancers, students, digital nomads, and professionals seeking an alternative to home working or formal offices.
Photographed to show layout, materials, and signage, the image documents the evolving role of cafés as multifunctional spaces supporting modern work habits. It is well suited for editorial use covering remote working, urban lifestyle, modern café culture, coworking trends, and contemporary interior design in the UK.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K5470M - Catastrophe for Wolverhampton' as Metro extension is delayed again until spring 2023
line extension work at Pipers Row earlier this year - trams won't be running until at least spring 2023
The Metro extension to Wolverhampton Railway Station will not be completed until spring 2023 due to unforeseen supply chain constraints delaying the project another five months.
The £35 million project was originally meant to be completed in 2020 but was delayed by 18 months due to construction work at the railway station. Metro bosses then hoped the 720-metre extension would be ready for the Commonwealth Games in July but pushed back the opening date until autumn 2022.
Deputy leader of Wolverhampton Council Councillor Stephen Simkins has called the latest delay a catastrophe.
Midlands Metro Alliance director Peter Cushing blamed complexities of installing the systems needed to run the trams down Pipers Row and supply chain problems.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M1MF3F - In 1845 a directory first listed a brass-founding business under Chrime Brothers
Edward, Richard and Peter were the sons of Edward Chrimes senior, a plumber and glazier. In the same year Edward Chrimes junior patented the 'high pressure loose valve screw-down cock', fore runner of the modern domestic tap
His brother Richard returned from London initially on a temporary basis to run the company. He then entered into partnership with John Guest, with the company becoming known as Guest and Chrimes. In 1848 the firm also started making sluice valve bodies cast in one piece, and from 1849 they manufactured patented New York style fire hydrants, which were widely exported.
The first foundry, known as Butter Market Foundry, was situated close to the River Don and the Market Place. In the mid 1850s the firm was awarded a large contract for valve gear and plumbing equipment for the Madrid Water Company in Spain, which necessitated an expansion of manufacturing. A new larger site was purchased beside the River Don and in 1857 the present factory was built on Don Street on a previously open field. The firm now had the facility for casting and machining both brass and iron.
The premises of Guest and Chrimes were listed at Grade II in February 1986. In 1999 the complex closed. All the post-1934 buildings were demolished in the early C21, having gone by 2012. In July 2018 there was a fire in the front, eastern range. Subsequently the whole of the front office range, caretaker's house, eastern extension and part of the angled return were demolished, leaving eight bays attached to the long rear range with the water tower

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K1RDF6 - Salford archaeology within the Centre for Applied Archaeology at the University of Salford, was commissioned by Glossop Land Ltd to carry out a programme of archaeological works in advance of the development of the Woods Mill complex, Glossop, Derbyshire. The proposed works included the demolition of a cotton mill that was part of the 19th century Howard Town Mills Complex and the redevelopment of the site for residential, retail and office use.
The site was occupied from 1803 by a water-powered cotton mill, which was destroyed by fire in 1842. The mill was subsequently purchased for use by John Wood, who redeveloped the site as the Howard Town Mills. The complex was slowly expanded eastwards until, at its height, it was employing 8000 people and was the largest integrated cotton spinning and weaving complex in Derbyshire. After John Wood died in 1854, the mill entered a slow decline until it was sold off in 1919. Although the western half continued in use as a cotton mill, the eastern half was taken over by Volcrepe Rubber in 1932, who continued to operate on the site until 2002.
This archive contains the results of the archaeological investigations undertaken by Salford Archaeology within the Woods Mill complex. This includes a level III building survey of the Narrow Spinning Mill and a report of the survey and excavation results, amalgamated into a single narrative that presents the archaeological evidence for the development of this important mill complex.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K1Y7RP - Vivienne Westwood 1941- Fashion Designer
Vivienne Westwood was born Vivienne Swire in the Peak District village of Tintwistle, Glossop, Derbyshire in 1941. Still a teenager, the family moved to Harrow, a suburb of northwest London, where her parents took over the running of a post office. At 21, she married Derek Westwood, a toolmaker, but the marriage did not last. After the break-up, Vivienne fled to her Aunt Ethel's caravan in North Wales, with her son Ben.
Her career in fashion did not take off until she met Malcolm McLaren, later known as the manager of punk band the Sex Pistols, who was studying alongside her brother at Harrow Technical College. Friendship came first, followed by love, and, in 1974, a second child, Joe, now the purveyor of saucy scanties, was born.
It was London which gave Vivienne the boost her creativity needed. After a stint selling her own jewellery in Portobello Market, she and Malcolm opened the infamous Sex boutique at the bottom end of the Kings Road where her provocative designs were sold. Then came punk. Vivienne's clothes were perfect for the youth trend: bondage trousers, slashed shirts and provocative God Save The Queen T-shirts. The monarch may not have loved it, but London was intoxicated.
After a couple more shops, Westwood moves to Italy in 1984 where a deal with Giorgio Armani announced. 1989 November: Westwood's name appears in a list of the world's top six designers in John Fairchild's book Chic Savages (1989), along with Armani, Lagerfield, Saint Laurent, Lacroix and Ungaro.
Between 1989-1991 she is appointed Professor of Fashion at Vienna Academy of Applied Arts and in 1990 the first complete menswear collection, Cut and Slash (S/S 1991) was shown in conjuntion with Pitti Uomo in Florence.
In 1992, she married Andreas Kronthaler, a fashion student a quarter of a century younger than her, whom she met when she was tutoring fashion at Vienna University of Applied Arts.
During the 1990's she opens shops in London

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0GF8W - 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 Lennon“McCartney 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.

The following is an extract from the Great Western Railway General Appendix to the Rule Book dated 1936: BADGES FOR PLACING OVER LEVERS IN LOCKING FRAMES Reversible metal badges with the words Disconnected and Workman respectively are provided in Signal-boxes for attaching to any lever when disconnected to act as a reminder to the Signalman and thus prevent possible injury to himself by his pulling it over in the usual way, or to indicate to the Signalman that workmen are engaged at the point or signal operated by that lever. Before moving this lever the Signalman must inform the workmen, when in close proximity to the box, that he is about to do so, but when they are engaged beyond speaking distance the Signalman must, before moving the lever right over, give two or three small movements to indicate to the workmen that the lever is about to be reversed.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTF4CE - History
We formed in 2012 with the original aim of transforming an area of wasteland behind Shipley Fire Station into a community food garden. Unfortunately due to due constraints over securing a lease for this site from Bradford Council, we are no longer able to pursue this project.
In 2015 we began working with Sustainable Saltaire to look after the Sunday School Garden in Caroline Street car park. In 2016 we developed two new edible growing sites: Plot at Platform 1 at Saltaire Station and the Japanese Edible Garden on Exhibition Road, supported by Shipley College. We also work with Saltaire Village Society to help look after the raised beds in the Wash House Garden on Caroline Street (edge of Edward Street and Amelia Street).

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTD2N6 - Bold Hard Work Pays Off artwork in Stevenson Square in Manchester's Northern Quarter, stock-photo/gotonysmith-England.html?sortBy=relevant&pseudoid=237DAF28-A4ED-4448-8173-C0E81ABEEC6F Target=_Blank>England. The installation is credited on the upper panel as Fred Aldous x Tara Collette and uses a vivid yellow ground with large hand-painted pink lettering, turning a simple motivational phrase into bright public-facing street art. Fred Aldous is a long-established Manchester art and craft supplies business based nearby at 37 Lever Street, while Tara Collette is a Manchester-based banner maker and artist whose work includes custom signs and eye-catching shop-window display pieces. The image has strong value for editorial use around Manchester's creative economy, independent retail, local artists, public art, typography, murals, creative placemaking and the distinctive visual culture of the Northern Quarter. Stevenson Square has long been associated with street art, independent bars, shops, cafes and the city's alternative design scene, and this piece fits into that wider pattern of colourful urban intervention in a dense city-centre setting. The vertical composition emphasises the scale of the lettering and the block-like structure, with upper floors, street activity and surrounding buildings visible around the edges. It can illustrate stories about positive messaging in public space, artist and retailer collaborations, art-led high street identity, Manchester design culture, city-centre regeneration and the role of independent businesses in shaping neighbourhood character. The wording also makes the image suitable for features about work ethic, ambition, creativity, small business, entrepreneurship, student life and maker culture. For picture buyers, the readable slogan, bright colour palette, named collaboration and clear Manchester location make it a flexible stock image for editorial, cultural, lifestyle, education, business and urban arts usage.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JREBKE - A table dance, or bartop dance, is a dance performed at (or on) a table or bar, as opposed to on a stage. It may be an erotic dance performed by a sex worker or it may be done as a leisure activity.
Sex work
In some jurisdictions, a table dance may be an alternative to a lap dance, due to laws preventing exotic dancers from making contact with customers. For example, in Waterloo, Ontario, a table dance is performed on a small portable platform the dancer takes around to patrons' tables. The Windmill Theatre in Soho, London operated as a strip club from the 1990s until 2018. The club's licensing conditions included a no touching rule and the club had a licence for striptease, pole-dancing and table dancing.
Establishments
Bartop dancing is encouraged at Coyote Ugly's chain of bars
Similar is the bartop dance, performed for the entertainment of those seated at the bar. The film Coyote Ugly ushered in a fad of bartop dancing establishments. Set in New York City's bar of the same name, several establishments around the city (e.g. Coyote Ugly, Hogs and Heifers, Red Rock West Saloon, Doc Holliday's Saloon) actively encouraged women to jump on the bar and dance, contributing to an Anything Goes atmosphere. Hogs and Heifers encourages dancers to leave their brassiere hanging from the ceiling to commemorate their dance. However, table dancing is forbidden at many events and establishments

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JNBY88 - Chipping Campden is a market town in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England. It is notable for its terraced High Street, dating from the 14th century to the 17th century. (Chipping is from Old English cēping, 'market', 'market-place'
the same element is found in other towns such as Chipping Norton, Chipping Sodbury and Chipping (now High) Wycombe.)
A wool trading centre in the Middle Ages, Chipping Campden enjoyed the patronage of wealthy wool merchants, most notably William Greville (d.1401). The High Street is lined with buildings built from locally quarried oolitic limestone known as Cotswold stone, and boasts a wealth of vernacular architecture. Much of the town centre is a conservation area which has helped to preserve the original buildings. The town is an end point of the Cotswold Way, a 102-mile long-distance footpath.
Chipping Campden has hosted its own Olympic Games since 1612.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JPB8TM - Arkell's Brewery was established in Swindon, England by John Arkell in 1843, and has been owned by members of the Arkell family since its establishment. It is Swindon's oldest company, built initially on the massive expansion of Swindon in the Victorian era with the arrival of the railways and the decision by Isambard Kingdom Brunel to site the Great Western Railway Works in Swindon in 1841.
Brewery
Originally a steam brewery, with the engines now being powered by electricity, Arkell's is a tower brewery which works on the principle that raw materials are fed into the top of the building and beer comes out in casks at the bottom.
The brewery building is a Grade II listed building and the site has been designated an Urban Conservation Area by Swindon Borough Council.
Distribution
The brewery owns 92 pubs in the Swindon area and surrounds, including locations in Oxford, Newbury, Reading, Cheltenham, Gloucester and Ascot
and sells its products to free houses in the Thames Valley and London.
In 2005, the brewery entered into a contract with rail company First Great Western to have its beer stocked in their buffet cars

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JPB8MW - The sculpture is by John O'Connor, he studied at the Sculpture Academy in London for four years, before going on to teach sculpture, moulding and casting.
The piece is cast in bronze resin and is called Beyond Limitations. It was placed in the Lady Arbour Clouster Gardens in 2013. . On the picturesque estuary border between Essex and Suffolk there is a hidden artist's studio. It remains a secret to the general public but the studio receives commissions from across the globe. A true asset to the local community and the international art scene alike.
This secret is sculptor John O'Connor. He works prolifically in his studio at Manningtree, a world away from the hustle and bustle of any art capital. He has as much talent and focus as any artist you would expect to find working in a major city and has been producing figurative contemporary sculpture for the last 18 years.
John's work has become increasingly popular and much sought after, in fact, business is booming. Amidst the glamour of celebrities and the household names of the garden design world, John was once again exhibiting his art works at the recent RHS Chelsea Flower Show. He was delighted to have again been working in collaboration with award winning garden designer James Basson. This year Basson designed the M&G show garden.
This summer he exhibited at two other RHS shows, Chatsworth House (June 7“11), and Hampton Court Flower Show (July 3“9).
Collaborating with John on the RHS shows will be various local companies including Dedham Vale Vineyards who will be sponsoring the private view with their delicious sparkling English Brut, and Essex based stonemasons, Wood For Stone, who will be providing the stone for this years exhibit. This years planting will also be provided by the Oxford based Water Perry Gardens. John also has various other prominent shows planned for this year.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2M07ADB - Hereford Cathedral is the cathedral church of the Anglican Diocese of Hereford in Hereford, England.
A place of worship has existed on the site of the present building since the 8th century or earlier. The present building was begun in 1079. Substantial parts of the building date from both the Norman and the Gothic periods. The cathedral is a Grade I listed building.
The cathedral has the largest library of chained book in the world, its most famous treasure being the Mappa Mundi, a medieval map of the world created around 1300 by Richard of Holdingham. The map is listed on the UNESCO Memory of the World Register.
The cathedral is dedicated to two saints, St Mary the Virgin and St Ethelbert the King. The latter was beheaded by Offa, King of Mercia in the year 794
Before this, Hereford had become the seat of a bishopric. It is said to have been the centre of a diocese as early as the 670s when Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury, divided the Mercian diocese of Lichfield, founding Hereford for the Magonsæte and Worcester for the Hwicce. In the 7th century the cathedral was refounded by Putta
Between the years 1226 and 1246, Lady Chapel was rebuilt in the Early English style”with a crypt beneath. Around the middle of the century the clerestory, and probably the vaulting of the choir, were rebuilt, having been damaged by the settling of the central tower
In the first half of the 14th century the rebuilding of the central tower, which is embellished with ball-flower ornaments, was carried out. At about the same time the chapter house and its vestibule were built, then Thomas Trevenant, who was bishop from 1389 to 1404, rebuilt the south end and groining of the great transept.
In 1841 the restoration work was begun, instigated by Dean Merewether, and was carried out by Lewis Nockalls Cottingham and his son, Nockalls.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJGB47 - The Bridgewater Canal connects Runcorn, Manchester and Leigh, in North West England. It was commissioned by Francis Egerton, 3rd Duke of Bridgewater, to transport coal from his mines in Worsley to Manchester. It was opened in 1761 from Worsley to Manchester, and later extended from Manchester to Runcorn, and then from Worsley to Leigh.
The canal is connected to the Manchester Ship Canal via a lock at Cornbrook
to the Rochdale Canal in Manchester
to the Trent and Mersey Canal at Preston Brook, southeast of Runcorn
and to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal at Leigh. It once connected with the River Mersey at Runcorn but has since been cut off by a slip road to the Silver Jubilee Bridge.
The Bridgewater canal is described as the first great achievement of the canal age, although the Sankey Canal opened earlier. Bridgewater captured the public imagination because of its engineering feats
it required the construction of an aqueduct to cross the River Irwell, and a tunnel at Worsley. Its success helped inspire a period of intense canal building in Britain, known as Canal Mania. It later faced intense competition from the Liverpool and Manchester Railway and the Macclesfield Canal. Navigable throughout its history, it is one of the few canals in Britain not to have been nationalised, and remains privately owned. Pleasure craft now use the canal which forms part of the Cheshire Ring network of canals.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K13HM6 - The Silver Jubilee Bridge (originally the Runcorn“Widnes Bridge or informally the Runcorn Bridge) crosses the River Mersey and the Manchester Ship Canal at Runcorn Gap between Runcorn and Widnes in Halton, England. It is a through arch bridge with a main arch span of 361 yards (330 m). It was opened in 1961 as a replacement for the Widnes-Runcorn Transporter Bridge. In 1975“77 the carriageway was widened, after which the bridge was given its official name in honour of the Queen's Silver Jubilee. It carries the A533 road and a cantilevered footway.
design was for a steel through arch bridge with a 10-yard (9 m) single carriageway. The design of the bridge is similar to that of Sydney Harbour Bridge but differs from it in that the side spans are continuous with the main span rather than being separate from them. This design feature was necessary to avoid the problem of oscillation due to the railway bridge. The main span measures 361 yards (330 m) and each side span is 83 yards (76 m)
Construction began on 25 April 1956. The contractors for the first phase of work, Leonard Fairclough of Adlington, cleared the ground and constructed the foundations for the piers. The contract for the second phase, the building of the main arch and the side arches, was given to Dorman Long of Middlesbrough who sub-contracted the building of the bridge deck, viaduct and roadworks to Leonard Fairclough. The carriageway was suspended from the arch by 48 lock-coil wire ropes.

Plans continue to develop for the full refurbishment of Stockton Heath swing bridge, with works targeted to take place next year.
The works will involve Peel Ports investing around £6million in undertaking a complete structural, mechanical, electrical refurbishment and repainting programme to improve the longevity of this key asset.
The swing bridge, across the Manchester Ship Canal, links Stockton Heath village to the town centre and the north.
Peel Ports and Warrington Borough Council are in advanced discussions for the major refurbishment works to begin in April 2023. This date has been chosen in order to ensure that there is sufficient time for preparations to be made for these works, to ensure that their impact can be mitigated as much as possible.
However, it is clear that these essential works will cause considerable disruption, and both Peel Ports and the council feel it is vital to give as much warning time as possible of the planned works.
The chosen start date will also ensure that the majority of the works are undertaken during more favourable weather conditions. In addition, the inclusion of the summer holidays in the works period (where traffic flows and associated disruption will also be reduced), aims to minimise disruption to children travelling to and from school.
Peel Ports estimate that the works will take approximately nine months to complete and have ensured 12 months' notice to communicate this so bridge users can make alternative arrangements during this time.
Their appointed contractor has looked at all options to undertake these works while maintaining some access for people to cross the bridge. However, due to the extent of the refurbishment, the works can only be carried out safely with the bridge being completely closed to all users, including pedestrians, cyclists

A new survey of public attitudes to NHS dentistry shows that half of the adults in England find dental charges unfair amid escalating living costs. We have warned decision-makers that NHS dentistry is in desperate need of reform.
With living costs on the rise, our new findings show that health inequalities are widening as people in every part of the country struggle to pay for dental care.
When people find it hard to access NHS dental care, they feel pressured to go private, which is not an option for many. And even NHS charges can be hard for some to afford.
A representative poll of 2,026 adults based in England found nearly half (49%) of respondents, who had an opinion about NHS charges, felt NHS dental charges were unfair.
What are people saying?
The poll, which looked at people's experiences of NHS dentistry, including costs associated with dental care, found the following:
¢ 54% of people who had an NHS dentist appointment, had a problem. Of these, more than three in five (63%) respondents found it difficult to book an appointment. More than three in ten (31%) couldn't access all the treatments they needed.
¢ 46% of people who had an NHS dentist appointment, had issues with the costs associated with their NHS dental care. Of these:
More than a third (34%) of respondents said they had to pay privately to get all the required treatment
nearly a quarter (24%) reported they felt pressured to pay privately when they booked their dental appointment. Similar numbers (24%) said their NHS dentist didn't explain the costs before starting treatment
nearly one in five (17%) reported that their NHS dentist charged more for the treatments than the advertised NHS charges
Widening health inequalities
The shortage of NHS appointments has hit people on low incomes hardest, meaning they are less likely to have dental treatment than those on higher incomes

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AFMK1R - Integrated Crop Management
Combining profitability, safe, healthy food and best environmental practice
ECM's Integrated Crop Management System is a method of farming that balances the requirements of running a profitable business with environmental responsibility. It includes practices that avoid waste, enhance energy efficiency and minimise pollution.
By combining the best of modern technology with good farming practice, ECM provide a whole-farm, long-term strategy. It is not a quick fix that can be applied to one crop, or one field or one season. Although primarily concerned with crop production, livestock management is equally important on mixed farms because livestock are consumers of crops and providers of organic nutrients.
ECM agronomists have vast experience of working in partnership with farmers to assess, monitor and plan all of their activities in an integrated way that both respects biodiversity and ensures profitability. Because our system involves the whole farm and is site-specific, there are no hard and fast rules about how we achieve this. Individual farms differ in many ways: location, climate, soil type and cropping pattern, to name a few. Even so, we have established general guidelines that can help all farmers and growers take practical steps to improve their management practices. These cover everything from use of fertilisers and crop protection products to the maintenance and enhancement of landscape features and wildlife habitats.
Whatever the farm, wherever it is located, planning, taking action and monitoring outcomes are the vital system processes.

The paint has dried on a mural entitled Perchance to Dream to celebrate the Brewhouse Theatre's 40th birthday
After one week the specially commissioned mural on the side of the Brewhouse Theatre and Arts Centre finishes today, Tuesday, July 25.
The curtain will come down on Tom Sledmore and Jack Tierney's work as they have completed the brief given to them by the theatre.
The mural has been painted as part of the Brewhouse's 40th birthday and it shows all the different aspects of theatre and theatre at the Brewhouse.
The mural depicts different elements of film and theatre such as the skull from Hamlet, Tommy Cooper's fez, a conductor, singers, Charlie Chaplin, a child watching a performance and even an astronaut who comes from the film Space Odessy 2001.
For both Tom and Jack this has been one of their biggest jobs and one of the most interesting.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2D8NX50 - The Identity and Passport Service was established on 1 April 2006, following the passing of the Identity Cards Act 2006 which merged the UK Passport Service with the Home Office's Identity Cards programme to form the new executive agency.
In 2007, the ninety British diplomatic missions that issued passports were consolidated into seven regional passport processing centres (RPPCs) based in Düsseldorf, Hong Kong, Madrid, Paris, Pretoria, Washington, D.C. and Wellington with an additional centre in Dublin.
The Identity Documents Act 2010 repealed the Identity Cards Act 2006, and required the cancellation of all identity cards and the destruction of all data held.
On 1 April 2011 responsibility for British passports issued overseas passed from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to IPS. The printing of passports issued overseas had been done in the UK since August 2011 and the administrative work performed at these RPPCs was repatriated to the UK during the 2013“14 financial year. From April 2014 all British nationals based overseas had to apply for their passports directly to the UK.
The Identity and Passport Service was renamed HM Passport Office on 13 May 2013 in an effort to reflect the agency's departure from its association with the scrapped National Identity Register and ID cards. The government stated in the press release that The inclusion of 'Her Majesty's' in the title recognises that passports are the property of the Crown, bear the royal coat of arms and are issued under the royal prerogative.
HMPO's executive agency status was removed on 1 October 2014 and it became a division within the Home Office. Its board reports directly to the Home Office's executive management board

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy GY09FY - St Wilfrid's Church is in Church Lane, Grappenhall, a village in Warrington, Cheshire, England. It is designated by Historic England as a Grade I listed building. It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester and the deanery of Great Budworth
The church is Norman in origin, built probably in the earlier part of the 12th century and completed about 1120. This was a small and simple church, consisting of a nave, chancel and, possibly, an apse. The foundations of this church were discovered during the 1873“74 restoration.
A chantry chapel was added by the Boydell family in 1334 in a position where the south aisle now stands. From 1529 the church was largely rebuilt in local sandstone. The old church was demolished and a new nave, chancel, north aisle and a west tower were built. In 1539 the south aisle was added, which incorporated the Boydell chapel. The south porch was added in 1641 and at this time the west wall was strengthened. In 1833 the roof of the nave was raised to form a clerestory and in the 1850s the south aisle was further extended, and a vestry was built. There was a more substantial restoration in 1873“74 by the Lancaster architects Paley and Austin, which included the provision of new floors and roofs, at a cost of about £4,000

The six self-governing Australian colonies that formed the Commonwealth of Australia on 1 January 1901 operated their own postal service and issued their own stamps “ see articles on the systems on New South Wales (first stamps issued 1850), Victoria (1850), Tasmania (1853), Western Australia (1854), South Australia (1855) and Queensland (1860). Under section 51(v) of the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution 1900, postal, telegraphic, telephonic, and other like services became a Commonwealth responsibility.
The Commonwealth's Postmaster-General's Department became effective on 1 March 1901 (this agency would be disaggregated on 1 July 1975 in part into the Australian Postal Commission trading as Australia Post). All then-current colony stamps which continued on sale became de facto Commonwealth stamps. Some of these stamps continued to be used for some time following the introduction in 1913 of the Commonwealth's uniform postage stamp series. These stamps continued to be valid for postage until 14 February 1966 when the introduction of decimal currency made all stamps bearing the earlier currency invalid for use.
There have been many special issues. The first Christmas stamp appeared on 6 November 1957. In recent years, designs for the Christmas issue have alternated each year between the religious and the secular. From 1993, in October of every year, Australia Post has commemorated Stamp Collecting month with special issues, typically featuring topics that are of interest to children such as pets, native fauna and space. Commencing with the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, during the Summer and Winter Olympic Games, stamps featuring Australians who have won an Olympic gold medal are issued on the next postal business day after the achievement.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PP7K - This image shows an artist working outdoors in St Peter's Square in Manchester, painting on an easel with Manchester Central Library visible in the background. Captured during summer, the scene reflects the use of public space for creative activity within the heart of the city.
St Peter's Square is one of Manchester's principal civic spaces, surrounded by landmark buildings including the circular, neoclassical Manchester Central Library. The square is frequently used by pedestrians, artists, performers, and visitors, functioning as a focal point for everyday urban life as well as cultural expression.
Plein air painting in city centres has become increasingly visible in recent years, with artists choosing to work directly from observation rather than from photographs or studios. Scenes such as this highlight the interaction between architecture, public space, and creative practice.
Photographed in natural summer light, the image documents contemporary urban culture in Manchester and is well suited for editorial use covering arts and creativity, city life, public spaces, tourism, and the lived experience of historic civic environments.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DDY30A - In the United States and Canada, timber-frame construction has been revived since the 1970s and is now experiencing a thriving renaissance of the ancient skills. This is largely due to such practitioners as Steve Chappell, Jack Sobon, and Tedd Benson, who studied old plans and techniques and revived a long-neglected technique. Once a handcrafted skill passed down, timber-frame construction has now been modernized with the help of modern industrial tools such as the CNC machines. These machines and mass-production techniques have assisted growth and made for more affordable frames and shorter lead-times for projects.
Timber-framed structures differ from conventional wood-framed buildings in several ways. Timber framing uses fewer, larger wooden members, commonly timbers in the range of 15 to 30 cm (6 to 12), while common wood framing uses many more timbers with dimensions usually in the 5 to 25 cm (2 to 10) range. The methods of fastening the frame members also differ. In conventional framing, the members are joined using nails or other mechanical fasteners, whereas timber framing uses the traditional mortice and tenon or more complex joints that are usually fastened using only wooden pegs.[13] Modern complex structures and timber trusses often incorporate steel joinery such as gusset plates, for both structural and architectural purposes.
Recently, it has become common practice to enclose the timber structure entirely in manufactured panels such as SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels). Although the timbers can only be seen from inside the building when so enclosed, construction is less complex and insulation is greater than in traditional timber building.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DG386Y - An ice cream van (British) or ice cream truck (American) is a commercial vehicle which serves as a traveling retail outlet for ice cream, usually during the summer. Ice cream vans are often seen parked at public events, or near parks, beaches, or other areas where people congregate. Ice cream vans often travel near where children play ” outside schools, in residential areas, or in other locations. They usually stop briefly before moving on to the next street.
Ice cream vans are often brightly decorated and carry images of ice cream, or some other adornment, such as cartoon characters. They may have painted-on notices, which can serve a commercial purpose (Stop me and buy one!) or a more serious one (Don't Skid on a Kid!) - serving as a warning to passing motorists that children may run out into the road at the sight of the van, or appear without warning from behind it. Along the sides, a large sliding window acts as a serving hatch, and this is often covered with small pictures of the available products, with their associated prices.
A distinctive feature of ice cream vans is their melodic chimes, and often these take the form of a famous and recognizable tune, usually The Mister Softee Jingle, Turkey in the Straw, Do Your Ears Hang Low?, Pop Goes The Weasel The Entertainer, Music Box Dancer, Home on the Range, It's a Small World, Super Mario Bros. Theme or Camptown Races
or, in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Greensleeves, Whistle While You Work in Crewe and Nantwich, You Are My Sunshine in Vale Royal, Teddy Bears' Picnic in Sheffield, and Match of the Day in other places.
In some places in the US, ice cream trucks play the song Ice Cream by Andre Nickatina (essentially just Turkey in the Straw with bass).

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DG38W1 - Princes Square is a shopping centre on Buchanan Street in central Glasgow, Scotland. It was developed in 1986 to a design by Edinburgh architects, the Hugh Martin Partnership. The new five-storey, 10,450-square-metre (112,500 sq ft) retail centre occupies a pre-existing cobbled square dating from 1841, which was reconfigured by enclosing the entire space below a new clear glass domed and vaulted roof. An expansion was completed in summer 1999, extending the centre into Springfield Court and providing a further 1,860 square metres (20,000 sq ft) of retail area and a new retail frontage to Queen Street.
The original cellars of the existing buildings were excavated to provide additional space. Inside the square, new galleries and stairs give access to the upper storeys. The original sandstone facades were preserved around the modern interior. The centre is adorned with decorative glass, tiling, lighting, timber and metalwork, designed by artists and craftsmen.
The writer Bill Bryson referred to Princes Square as one of the most intelligent pieces of urban renewal.
The Hugh Martin Partnership earned several design awards for Princes Square, including the RIBA Scottish Regional Award for Architecture (1988), the Edinburgh Architectural Association Centenary Medal (1989), and a Civic Trust Award (1989). The original fabric has been protected as a category B listed building since 1970.

The Missionaries of Charity in Liverpool offer hospitality to the homeless community. Volunteers assist the work of the Missionaries of Charity in giving out food. After the clients finish their food they often have another cup of tea and a cake and then start to disperse. The volunteers then wash up the dishes, sweep and mop the floor and clean the tables. Some volunteers go around the dining-room and pour out tea for people. On occasion a client may be drunk and become somewhat agitated
on these occasions the nuns step in and sort out the situation. Whilst it can be quite daunting going into the Missionaries of Charity ˜soup-kitchen' at first, volunteers often say they become more confident as the weeks go on, and look forward to returning week after week.

A Question Of Etiquette hope to keep raising the bar and destroy the UK... Their lyrical concept is born through the hatred that many of us have grown up with through our lives, the people we know, hate and love and the pure passion that drives us to aim as far we can... The band aim for a fresh melodic sound, yet maintaining an extreme yet old school feel to the music, forever hoping to progress through time, and with the dedication and drive we all have we believe this is possible'
This Winnington Rec' Banned! gig was opened by Spires, Kensington Arms from Holland and topped off by AQOE (A Question Of Etiquette).
The AQOE set included 'Hold Tight', Divided, AQOE, Innovations, 'Visions of a sleeping god'and Brainless.

Its got to be the mascot up at Cheshire's top hand car wash Garnett. They are a really friendly team down there and do a cracking job. I can recommend them.
Look out for the mascot which will be around town from now and into the summer to promote the business that covers cars, valets, drives and conservatories from their base at Old Warrington road, Northwich and out at Tatton adjacent to the Little Chef on the A556. They also clean Fascias, Caravans and even done the odd Tractor believe it or not. Handy as they are insured with NFU (originally the farmers mutual).
Back in December, the local council, Cheshire West and Chester Council (CWAC), took offence at the companies distinctive green and yellow A-Boards. I am unsure if it was the colour or size that was the nature of the complaint. If it was that they were prominent, isn't that the point? I have still noticed plenty of A-Boards around town. To be consistant shouldn't they all be banned?
Shirley Wingfield, a spokesman for CWAC, was reported in the Northwich Guardian as saying \u201cWe do not regard what Mr Garnett was advertising on as A-boards, we regard it as fly posting. \u201cWe act when incidents are reported to us and people are asked not to do it again. If they persist they are issued with a fixed penalty notice.\u201d
Personally I thought I thought I had a good idea what a fly posting was, but maybe not!
If you want to book yourself in with the Garnett Hand Carwash give them a bell on 07825-776617.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4594180519 - 'Quarry Bank Mill in Cheshire, England, is one of the best preserved textile mills of the Industrial Revolution and is now a museum of the cotton industry. It is a Grade II listed building and is now in the care of the National Trust.
The mill was founded by Samuel Greg (who is represented here), in 1784 in the village of Styal on the River Bollin. Its original iron water wheel was designed by Thomas Hewes and built between 1816 and 1820.
The Hewes wheel finally broke in 1904. After that the River Bollin continued to power the mill, through two water turbines. Today the Mill is home to the most powerful working waterwheel in Europe, an iron water wheel which was originally at Glasshouses Mill at Patley Bridge. This wheel was designed by Sir William Fairbairn, the Scottish engineer who had been an apprentice of Thomas Hewes.
The estate surrounding the mill, also developed by Greg, is the most complete and least altered factory colony of the Industrial Revolution. The estate and mill were donated to the National Trust in 1939 by Alexander Carlton Greg and are open to the public. The mill continued in commercial production until 1959.
The Greg family were Unitarians and built Norcliffe Chapel in Styal village. Their non-conformist religious beliefs provided the Gregs with important business contacts as many of the major Manchester Industrialists were Unitarian. Methodist workers at the mill later sought a place of worship, and the Gregs converted a grain store in Styal village into a Chapel for their use.
In Britain, a cotton mill is a factory that houses spinning and weaving machinery. Typically built between 1775 and 1930, mills spun cotton which was an important product during the Industrial Revolution.
Cotton mills, and the mechanisation of the spinning process, were instrumental in the growth of the machine tool industry, enabling the construction of larger cotton mills. The requirement for water helped stimulate the construction of the canal system, and the need for power the development of steam engines.
Limited companies were developed to construct the mills. This led to the trading floors of the cotton exchange of Manchester (now the Royal Excahnge Theatre), which in its turn created a vast commercial city. At the top of the town hall in Manchester sits a golden cotton seed, its basis for its wealth.
The mills also created extra employment, leading to the expansion of local populations and the need for extra housing. In response, mill towns with municipal governments were created. The mills provided independent incomes for girls and women. Child labour was used in the mills, and the factory system led to organised labour.
Poor conditions in cotton mills became the subject of exposes and the Factory Acts were written to regulate them. The cotton mill was originally a Lancashire phenomenon that then was copied in New England and later in the southern states of America.
In the twentieth century, North West England lost its supremacy to the United States, then India and then China. In the twenty-first century redundant mills have been accepted as part of a country's industrial heritage.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4578869286 - 'Bob is the handy man at the Blakemere Craft Centre, Sandiway Cheshire. I spotted his lovely beard and got chatting to him. He has had his face fungus now for well over 20 years. On one occasion when he had it shaved off at the barbers he was so unrecognisable that his next door neighbour thought he was a burgler, who had climbed into the back garden! He was simply unrecognisable!
Bob does alsorts around the centre which has now grown into quite a multi-faceted complex. There is even a working Brewery making traditionally crafted cask ales on the site. Yep I do have a nose for that kind of stuff!
In the course of history, men with facial hair have been ascribed various attributes such as wisdom and knowledge, sexual virility, masculinity, or high social status
and, conversely, filthiness, crudeness, or an eccentric disposition. In many cultures, beards are associated with nature and outdoorsmen. I remember in my mis-spent youth enjoying the band ZZ Top, strangely the only member of the band without a beard is in fact called Frank Beard (credited as Rube Beard on early LP's). However it must be said that he did in fact sport some facial hair, generally only a trimmed mustache.
In 1984, the Gillette Company (one of the worlds largest razor manufacturers) reportedly offered Gibbons and Hill (the bearded members of ZZ Top) $1 million each to shave their beards for a television commercial. They allegedly declined, saying 'We're too ugly without 'em'. Apparently the name came from blues guitar master B. B. King. The band had planned to call themselves ZZ. King, but felt it was too similar. Since B.B. King was at the 'top', they settled on ZZ Top.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4503896012 - 'Chris is the operations manager (M.Inst.ICCM to give him his proper title) at Northwich Town Council for cemetaries. He looks after the allocation of burial and cremation plots at Northwich and Rudheath in Cheshire. He is a great chap and I was inspired to have a little window into his job.
It is his job to catalog each interment and here he is looking at a ledger of burials from 1893 onwards. Documentation becomes sparse much before this. All of the records in Northwich are in fact paper records in ledgers like this, they have not yet been computerised or fully digitised. Often a usual day at his office is taken up at least in part by family tree enquiries and manual searches of the books of carefully hand written entries. The books are now getting quite worn and tired, some flaking and coming apart unfortunately.
I had quite a long interesting chat with Chris, who as you might expect had quite an enlightened view of death and burial. The British and indeed largly northern European view of it tend to keep it hidden. However it is the only one of two things we will all encounter in life, the second being tax.
Human burial practices are generally bourne from the human desire to demonstrate 'respect for the dead'. Also to prevent the possibilities of revenants harming the living.
Here are the main reasons for this-
Respect for the physical remains. If left lying on top of the ground, scavengers may eat the corpse, considered disrespectful to the deceased in many (but not all) cultures. In Tibet, Sky burials return the remains to the cycle of life and acknowledge the body as 'food,' a core tenet of some Buddhist practices. Parsi's in India expose the body to the air, birds, insects etc to be picked clean. This last one is not so far away from what ancient britons did when bones were picked clean then stored in communal chambers, as have been found in the Scotish hebrides and particularly on Mull.
Burial can be seen as an attempt to bring closure to the deceased's family and friends. Psychologists in some Western Judeo-Christian quarters, as well as the US funeral industry, claim that by interring a body away from plain view, the pain of losing a loved one can be lessened.
Many cultures believe in an afterlife. Burial is sometimes believed to be a necessary step for an individual to reach the afterlife.
Many religions prescribe a particular way to live, which includes customs relating to disposal of the dead.
He is seeing a rise in green / natural funerals. Bodies buried five to ten feet down in a wicker or biodegradable container, sometimes not even in a traditional cemetary setting. Cremation is becoming ever more popular too. Suffice to say, Chris and the job he does should be safe for sometime to come.

Sons in Cuddington, Northwich, Cheshire UK. It makes a refreshing change to visit a real butcher, rather than the pre-packaged and shrink wrapped conveyor belt plastic meat from the supermarket, although in In English, the name Lyulph is a variant of Lyulf: A compound of the Old English words for flame and wolf.
He was named after Arthur Lyulph Stanley who was a relative of his father and Liberal elected MP for the mainly rural parliamentary constituancy of Eddisbury. Arthur awarded KCMG (14 September 1875 \u2013 22 August 1931), also 5th Baron Stanley of Alderley and 4th Baron Eddisbury, was an English nobleman and Governor of Victoria from 1914 to 1920. Thus a suitable role model to name your child after I guess. The name Lyulph has origins in Scandinavia.
The butcher shop in Cuddington has a long history and in the 1930's there was a fatality when a butcher's boy, Les Watson (brother of Joan Underwood) was involved in a collision with a mail van while riding his delivery bicycle on Swan Hill.
If you would like to visit the shop for excellent local meat, excellent homemade pies and sausages etc, it is at 18 Warrington Road, give them a call on 01606 883162 for opening hours.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4083459935 - 'A carved orange pumpkin (Squash) ready for use at the festival of Halloween as a lantern. Lighting provided by a sparker to produce yellow hair.
Pumpkins are commonly carved into decorative lanterns called jack-o'-lanterns for the Halloween season in North America. Throughout Britain and Ireland, there is a long tradition of carving lanterns from vegetables, particularly the turnip, mangelwurzel, or swede.
Not until 1837, however, does jack-o'-lantern appear as a term for a carved vegetable lantern, and the carved lantern does not become associated specifically with Halloween until 1866.
Although every modern chronicle of the holiday repeats the claim that vegetable lanterns were a time-honored component of Halloween celebrations in the British Isles, none gives any primary documentation. In fact, none of the major nineteenth-century chronicles of British holidays and folk customs makes any mention whatsoever of carved lanterns in connection with Halloween. Neither do any of the standard works of the early twentieth century.
In the US, the carved pumpkin was first associated with the harvest season in general, long before it became an emblem of Halloween

Mr Gidman doing an excellent job in Stockton Heath at the dental practice.
In this day and age in western countries we should be able to eat ourselves out of a trip to the dentist
Foods that help muscles and bones also help teeth and gums. Breads and cereals are rich in vitamin B while fruits (an apple a day... ) and vegetables contain vitamin C, both of which contribute to healthy gum tissue. Lean meat, fish, and poultry provide magnesium and zinc for teeth. Some people recommend that teeth be brushed after every meal and at bedtime, and flossed at least once per day, preferably at night before sleep. For some people, flossing might be recommended after every meal.
Some foods may protect against cavities. Fluoride is a primary protector against dental cavities. Fluoride makes the surface of teeth more resistant to acids during the process of remineralisation. Drinking fluoridated water is recommended by some dental professionals while others say that using toothpaste alone is enough.
Milk and cheese are also rich in calcium and phosphate, and may also encourage remineralisation. All foods increase saliva production, and since saliva contains buffer chemicals this helps to stabilize the pH to near 7 (neutral) in the mouth. Foods high in fiber may also help to increase the flow of saliva. Sugar-free chewing gum stimulates saliva production, and helps to clean the surface of the teeth.

Dave with his full face tattoo. A very tattood man !
As many people will know I generally attend the local tattoo convention at Manchester and Liverpool. Too many people do 'judge by the cover' however, which is very wrong. A tat can be a fashion statement or something more.
A tattoo is a marking made by inserting indelible ink into the dermis layer of the skin to change the pigment for decorative or other reasons. Tattoos on humans are a type of decorative body modification, while tattoos on animals are most commonly used for identification or branding. Indeed the habit of women having one just above the bottom is offen referred to as a 'tramp stamp'.
The word tatoo appears to be a loan word from Polynesian 'tatau'. People have also been forcibly tattooed. A well-known example is the identification system for inmates in Nazi concentration camps during the Holocaust. Tattoos have also been used for identification in other ways. For example, in the period of early contact between the M\u0101ori and Europeans, M\u0101ori chiefs sometimes drew their moko (facial tattoo) on documents in place of a signature.
Permanent makeup is the use of tattoos to enhance eyebrows, lips (liner and/or lipstick), eyes (liner), and even moles, usually with natural colors, as the designs are intended to resemble makeup.
In Japan, tattoos are strongly associated with organized crime organizations known as the yakuza, particularly full body tattoos done the traditional Japanese way (Tebori).
In the United States many prisoners and criminal gangs use distinctive tattoos to indicate facts about their criminal behavior, prison sentences, and organizational affiliation. A tear tattoo, for example, can be symbolic of murder, with each tear representing the death of a friend. At the same time, members of the U.S. military have an equally well established and longstanding history of tattooing to indicate military units, battles, kills, etc., an association which remains widespread among older Americans. Tattooing is also common in the British Armed Forces.

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

The blasts killed two children: three year old Jonathan Ball died instantly, and twelve year old Tim Parry died five days later in hospital. Around 56 other people were injured - 4 seriously. Their deaths provoked widespread condemnation of the organisation responsible. The blast followed a failed bomb attack a few weeks earlier on a gas storage plant in Warrington.
Tim Parry's father Colin Parry founded The Peace Centre (formerly the Tim Parry Jonathan Ball Peace Centre) as part of a campaign to reconcile communities in conflict. The centre opened on the seventh anniversary of the bombing in 2000.

The decline in fishing, however, caused a shift in commercial emphasis, and the town is now primarily a popular seaside resort, notably achieving the title of Best UK Seaside Town from the British Travel Awards in both 2010 and 2011. St Ives was incorporated by Royal Charter in 1639. St Ives has become renowned for its number of artists. It was named best seaside town of 2007 by The Guardian newspaper
Pedn Olva Mine, a former copper mine, at Pedn Olva Point adit, operated in St Ives before 1911, when the engine house on Pedn Olva Point was demolished, now the site of the Pedn Olva Hotel.
The modern seaside resort developed as a result of the arrival of the St Ives Bay branch line from St Erth, part of the Great Western Railway in 1877. With it came a new generation of Victorian seaside holidaymakers. Much of the town was built during the latter part of the 19th century. The railway, which winds along the cliffs and bays, survived the Beeching cuts and has become a tourist attraction itself
From medieval times fishing was important at St Ives
it was one of the most important fishing ports on the north Cornish coast. The original pier's construction date is unknown but the first reference to St Ives having a pier was in 1478 in William Worcester's 'Itinerary'. The pier was re-built by John Smeaton between 1766 and 1770 after falling into disrepair. It was lengthened at a later date. The octagonal lookout with a cupola belongs to Smeaton's design
The first lifeboat was stationed in the town in 1840. In 1867 the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) built a boathouse at Porthgwidden beach. It proved to be a difficult site to launch from, and in 1867 it was replaced by a building in Fore Street.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K1P047 - Gamesley is a residential area within the Borough of High Peak in Derbyshire, England, west of Glossop and close to the River Etherow which forms the boundary with Tameside in Greater Manchester. Gamesley is a ward of the High Peak Borough Council. It had a population of 2,531 at the 2011 Census
The original village of Gamesley consisted of rows of cottages inhabited by workers at the local textile mills, and it remained largely undeveloped until the 1960s, when it underwent considerable change. It was chosen as the location of an overspill estate, built by Manchester City Council. This was in order to rehouse people from decaying inner city areas of Manchester. These housing areas were also built in other towns surrounding Manchester, such as nearby Hattersley on the outskirts of Hyde.
The Gamesley estate was built in 2 half's. The first houses were built by contractors Finnegans which were constructed with
flat felted roofs, pebble dash cladding ground floors and tile cladded first floors. Finnegans houses were equipped with warm air central heating which used gas as an energy source. The Finnegan side of the estate was known locally as the ˜gas side'. In the late 1980s the local authority renovated the Finnegan system built houses, the works included re-enveloping the external building with traditional bricks and mortar. The works also added apex roofing complete with roofing tiles.
The second half of the Gamesley estate was built a couple of years later by George Wimpey using the Wimpey no-fines house building method. The houses were constructed with full pebble dash finish and tiled apex roofing. The houses built by George Wimpey had a solid concrete ground floor which had electrical underfloor heating installed, the first floors of these houses were built with no heating. Due to electricity being the main energy source for heating, the George Wimpey side of Gamesley became known locally as the ˜electric side'.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DHGXX7 - BT Openreach telecoms engineer ,fixing fault, in green roadside cabinet box, Walsall, West Midlands, England, UK works as a grounded stock photograph because the subject is specific, legible and connected to wider social, economic or cultural themes. A BT Openreach engineer working at a green roadside cabinet shows the physical, skilled labour behind broadband and telephone services that are often talked about as invisible digital utilities. The subject is useful for coverage of fibre rollout, telecoms faults, digital exclusion, street works, infrastructure maintenance, home working and the dependence of households and businesses on reliable connectivity. The location detail, Walsall, strengthens searches for regional features, travel pages, local-history pieces and news use where a named place matters. The scene has practical value for features needing authentic British or international street-level evidence, especially where policy, culture, business, tourism or social change is easier to explain through one clear example.
