Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RDF3PP - Henley Royal Regatta (or Henley Regatta, its original name pre-dating Royal patronage) is a rowing event held annually on the River Thames by the town of Henley-on-Thames, England. It was established on 26 March 1839. It differs from the three other regattas rowed over approximately the same course, Henley Women's Regatta, Henley Masters Regatta, and Henley Town and Visitors' Regatta, each of which is an entirely separate event.
The regatta lasts for six days (Tuesday to Sunday) ending on the first weekend in July. Races are head-to-head knock out competitions, raced over a course of 1 mile 550 yards (2,112 m). The regatta regularly attracts international crews to race. The most prestigious event at the regatta is the Grand Challenge Cup for Men's Eights, which has been awarded since the regatta was first staged.
As the regatta pre-dates any national or international rowing organisation, it has its own rules and organisation, although it is recognised by both British Rowing (the governing body of rowing in England and Wales) and FISA (the International Federation of Rowing Associations). The regatta is organised by a self-perpetuating body of Stewards, who are largely former rowers themselves. One exception to this rule is that the Mayor of Henley-on Thames Council is an ex-officio Steward. Pierre de Coubertin modelled elements of the organisation of the International Olympic Committee on the Henley Stewards.
The regatta is regarded as part of the English social season. As with other events in the season, certain enclosures at the regatta have strict dress codes
The qualifying races take the form of a timed processional race up the regatta course, with the fastest crews qualifying. Times are released for non-qualifying crews only. This does not stop an enthusiastic band of unofficial timers with synchronised watches working out how fast their first round opposition might be.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K1P04B - 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 2JN8293 - Chester Rows are a set of structures in each of the four main streets of Chester, in the United Kingdom, consisting of a series of covered walkways on the first floor behind which are entrances to shops and other premises. At street level is another set of shops and other premises, many of which are entered by going down a few steps.
Dating from the medieval era, the Rows may have been built on top of rubble remaining from the ruins of Roman buildings, but their origin is still subject to speculation. In some places the continuity of the Rows has been blocked by enclosure or by new buildings, but in others modern buildings have retained the Rows in their designs. Undercrofts or crypts were constructed beneath the buildings in the Rows. The undercrofts are made from stone while most of the buildings in the Rows are timber.
Today about 20 of the stone undercrofts still exist, but at the level of the Rows very little medieval fabric remains. Many of the buildings containing portions of the Rows are listed and some are recorded in the English Heritage Archive. The premises on the street and Row levels are used for a variety of purposes
most are shops, but there are also offices, restaurants, cafés, and meeting rooms. Chester Rows are one of the city's main tourist attractions.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JN8296 - Chester Rows are a set of structures in each of the four main streets of Chester, in the United Kingdom, consisting of a series of covered walkways on the first floor behind which are entrances to shops and other premises. At street level is another set of shops and other premises, many of which are entered by going down a few steps.
Dating from the medieval era, the Rows may have been built on top of rubble remaining from the ruins of Roman buildings, but their origin is still subject to speculation. In some places the continuity of the Rows has been blocked by enclosure or by new buildings, but in others modern buildings have retained the Rows in their designs. Undercrofts or crypts were constructed beneath the buildings in the Rows. The undercrofts are made from stone while most of the buildings in the Rows are timber.
Today about 20 of the stone undercrofts still exist, but at the level of the Rows very little medieval fabric remains. Many of the buildings containing portions of the Rows are listed and some are recorded in the English Heritage Archive. The premises on the street and Row levels are used for a variety of purposes
most are shops, but there are also offices, restaurants, cafés, and meeting rooms. Chester Rows are one of the city's main tourist attractions.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AGTXBJ - Dorney Lake (also known as Eton College Rowing Centre, and as Eton Dorney as a 2012 Summer Olympics venue) is a purpose-built rowing lake in England. It is near the village of Dorney, Buckinghamshire, and is around 3 km (2 miles) west of Windsor and Eton, close to the River Thames.
The lake is privately owned and financed by Eton College, which spent £17 million developing it. Additional grants, totalling £500,000, were obtained from Sport England, UK Sport, the DCMS and SEEDA in order to build the lake's finish tower. The project was completed in 2006, after 10 years of construction. Although it is primarily for use by the school, the facilities are hired out for rowing, as well as for canoeing, dragon boating, open water swimming and triathlon.
Since the lake was opened, a number of annual regattas that were previously held on the River Thames have been transferred to the lake. These include the Marlow Regatta in June, the Metropolitan Regatta in May/June, and the Wallingford Regatta in May.
The lake's dimensions follow the FISA rules for a rowing lake suitable for hosting a World Rowing Championship, World Rowing Cup or Olympic regatta:
Stillwater, with consistent water conditions
2,200 metres (7,200 ft) straight length for racing
8 rowing lanes, each 13.5 metres (44 ft) wide
Minimum water depth of 3.5 metres (11 ft)
A return channel allowing boats to move to the start, separated from the main lake by an island

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AGTXBD - Dorney Lake (also known as Eton College Rowing Centre, and as Eton Dorney as a 2012 Summer Olympics venue) is a purpose-built rowing lake in England. It is near the village of Dorney, Buckinghamshire, and is around 3 km (2 miles) west of Windsor and Eton, close to the River Thames.
The lake is privately owned and financed by Eton College, which spent £17 million developing it. Additional grants, totalling £500,000, were obtained from Sport England, UK Sport, the DCMS and SEEDA in order to build the lake's finish tower. The project was completed in 2006, after 10 years of construction. Although it is primarily for use by the school, the facilities are hired out for rowing, as well as for canoeing, dragon boating, open water swimming and triathlon.
Since the lake was opened, a number of annual regattas that were previously held on the River Thames have been transferred to the lake. These include the Marlow Regatta in June, the Metropolitan Regatta in May/June, and the Wallingford Regatta in May.
The lake's dimensions follow the FISA rules for a rowing lake suitable for hosting a World Rowing Championship, World Rowing Cup or Olympic regatta:
Stillwater, with consistent water conditions
2,200 metres (7,200 ft) straight length for racing
8 rowing lanes, each 13.5 metres (44 ft) wide
Minimum water depth of 3.5 metres (11 ft)
A return channel allowing boats to move to the start, separated from the main lake by an island

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AGTXBK - Dorney Lake (also known as Eton College Rowing Centre, and as Eton Dorney as a 2012 Summer Olympics venue) is a purpose-built rowing lake in England. It is near the village of Dorney, Buckinghamshire, and is around 3 km (2 miles) west of Windsor and Eton, close to the River Thames.
The lake is privately owned and financed by Eton College, which spent £17 million developing it. Additional grants, totalling £500,000, were obtained from Sport England, UK Sport, the DCMS and SEEDA in order to build the lake's finish tower. The project was completed in 2006, after 10 years of construction. Although it is primarily for use by the school, the facilities are hired out for rowing, as well as for canoeing, dragon boating, open water swimming and triathlon.
Since the lake was opened, a number of annual regattas that were previously held on the River Thames have been transferred to the lake. These include the Marlow Regatta in June, the Metropolitan Regatta in May/June, and the Wallingford Regatta in May.
The lake's dimensions follow the FISA rules for a rowing lake suitable for hosting a World Rowing Championship, World Rowing Cup or Olympic regatta:
Stillwater, with consistent water conditions
2,200 metres (7,200 ft) straight length for racing
8 rowing lanes, each 13.5 metres (44 ft) wide
Minimum water depth of 3.5 metres (11 ft)
A return channel allowing boats to move to the start, separated from the main lake by an island

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy MJ2YF5 - . This dated editorial view of the recorded location in 2018 captures more than the immediate subject, retaining clues about local use, design, activity and change. The main point of reference is Fighting Cocks Pub, Moseley, Birmingham City Centre, B13 8HW, UK. The wider scene also brings together fermented drink production, local character, beverage production, social history, period detail, changing streetscape, Herefordshire cider tradition, factory bottling line, changing land use, bottle-filling machinery, public realm, visual archive, industrial beverage equipment, and regional drinks industry. The modern context includes continuing discussion of responsible drinking, brand heritage and how bottling technology transformed large-scale drinks manufacturing. The image fixes local activity and public use within the recorded location at one identifiable point, providing a benchmark against new construction. The surrounding story also includes before-and-after reference, regional identity, drinks packaging, everyday life, contemporary social history, cider brand history, cider-making heritage, and archival record. The combination of Cocks, Moseley, Centre, Fighting, and Birmingham anchors the frame to a recognisable activity, place or moment. A later view of the recorded location may show a very different setting, increasing the value of this precise record of its earlier appearance and activity. The location additionally provides evidence of responsible drinking and how bottling technology transformed large-scale drinks manufacturing within the real-world context of the recorded location. A further contemporary connection is tourism and Herefordshire's long association with commercial cider production within the specific setting of the recorded location. The wider significance includes energy costs and how historic drinks advertising and machinery become industrial heritage as part of the longer story of the recorded location.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy MJ2YF7 - . Made at the recorded location in 2018, this photograph records a real place and moment, preserving details that may later be altered by redevelopment, rebranding, changing ownership or different public use. The photograph centres on Fighting Cocks Pub, Moseley, Birmingham City Centre, B13 8HW, UK. The frame also records themes of documentary photography, archival record, Herefordshire cider tradition, social history, changing streetscape, drinks manufacturing, before-and-after reference, fermented drink production, beverage production, public realm, regional identity, regional drinks industry, historic beverage advertising, and industrial beverage equipment. Today's relevance is strengthened by alcohol duty, regional food heritage and the continuing question of Herefordshire's long association with commercial cider production. As a dated visual record of the recorded location, the frame retains street furniture and boundaries, making it especially useful if new construction subsequently changes the scene. The wider setting retains connections with local history, bottle-filling machinery, community identity, bottling technology, cider brand history, changing land use, place identity, and contemporary social history. Details involving Centre, Cocks, Birmingham, Moseley, and Fighting make the image more specific than a generic view and strengthen its local or historical value. The strongest archival anchor in this row is the subject itself, Fighting Cocks Pub, Moseley, Birmingham City Centre, B13 8HW, UK

The surrounding context encompasses everyday life, Herefordshire cider tradition, beverage production, orchard-to-bottle industry, historical comparison, cider-making heritage, contemporary social history, archival record, regional identity, factory bottling line, social history, historic beverage advertising, place identity, and local character. Today's relevance is strengthened by energy costs, packaging and the continuing question of how bottling technology transformed large-scale drinks manufacturing. Small period details of period objects and surrounding context at the recorded location may become more significant with time, particularly following changing commercial priorities. The wider setting retains connections with regional drinks industry, industrial beverage equipment, community identity, bottle-filling machinery, fermented drink production, changing streetscape, drinks packaging, and documentary photography. The combination of Fighting, Cocks, Moseley, Birmingham, and Centre anchors the frame to a recognisable activity, place or moment.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2BC399F - . This location-based editorial photograph from Manchester Central GMEX, England, UK in 2017 preserves a recognisable subject together with clues about how the place was used and presented at the time. At the centre of the frame is Tally Ho, Strong Dark Ale, Champion Winter Beer of Britain, at Manchester Beer Festival, Manchester Central 2017. The scene additionally carries associations with community identity, period detail, venue culture, hand-pulled beer, visual archive, licensed hospitality, music heritage, contemporary social history, place identity, music subculture, brewing heritage, concert photography, beer tourism, and before-and-after reference. In the mid-2020s, beer duty and staffing pressure keep the subject current, particularly through the survival of community pubs. The subject remains useful for current coverage of venue closures and heritage, not least because of the archival value of recording bands and venues before they disappear. For future researchers, the view documents the way the place functioned before later physical or commercial change around Manchester Central GMEX, England, UK. Further connections include real-ale culture, performance culture, cultural identity, beer festival scene, grassroots gig, independent brewing, archival record, and drinks hospitality. Details involving Strong, Winter, Tally, Champion, and Festival give the scene useful specificity and strengthen its local, cultural or historical identity. The surrounding context at Manchester Central GMEX, England, UK matters because ordinary visual details often provide the strongest evidence of how a place actually looked and functioned. The image also provides a reference for beer duty and the survival of community pubs without losing the local specificity of Manchester Central GMEX, England, UK. It also preserves period character for later comparison. The photograph keeps a trace of local identity within the wider story of Manchester Central GMEX, England, UK.

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

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

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JGXP0E - Santander Cycles (formerly Barclays Cycle Hire) is a public bicycle hire scheme in London in the United Kingdom. The scheme's bicycles are popularly known as Boris Bikes, after Boris Johnson who was Mayor of London when the scheme began operating.
The operation of the scheme was initially contracted by Transport for London (TfL) to Serco. Bikes and docking stations are provided by 8D Technologies. The scheme is sponsored, with Santander UK being the main sponsor from April 2015. Barclays Bank was the first sponsor, from 2010 to March 2015.
Credit for developing and enacting the scheme has been a source of debate. Johnson has taken credit for the plan, although the initial concept was announced by his predecessor Ken Livingstone, during the latter's term in office. Livingstone said that the programme would herald a cycling and walking transformation in London and Johnson said that he hoped the bikes would become as common as black cabs and red buses in the capital.
A study showed cyclists using the scheme are three times less likely to be injured per trip than cyclists in London as a whole, possibly due to motorists giving cycle hire users more road space than they do other cyclists, although trips by hire bike users seemed to be much shorter on average. Customer research in 2013 showed that 49 per cent of Cycle Hire members say that the scheme has prompted them to start cycling in London.
As of July 2022, more than 111.2 million journeys had been made using the cycles, with the record for cycle hires in a single day being 73,000.
In October 2022, TfL introduced new e-bikes to the scheme, the first docked e-bikes in London

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy ED4KYR - . Comptometer - key-driven mechanical calculator showing numbered button keys. Photographed on 20 December 2014. The recorded location is England. The comptometer was the first commercially successful key-driven mechanical calculator. Looking at the subject's development, mechanical calculators, time clocks and electronic valves belong to successive generations of office and industrial technology before solid-state electronics and networked computers became dominant
Their keys, dials, circuits and mechanisms make visible tasks that modern digital systems perform almost invisibly. In the longer view, technical artefacts show how innovation changes daily life: office machines reduced clerical labour, telephones reshaped communication, cameras altered image-making and electronic components enabled broadcasting and computing
Close-up photographs preserve interfaces and designs that quickly vanish from use. Looking at the subject's development, clothing details record both craftsmanship and evolving taste
Tailoring, buttons, fabrics and formal dress can reveal manufacturing quality, social conventions and fashion cycles that move between bespoke production and mass-market clothing. For the 2026 context, calculation, payroll, attendance and communications are largely software-based, while vintage office and electronic equipment survives mainly in museums, collections and specialist restoration
Such objects are increasingly useful for illustrating the material history behind modern digital work. Current 2026 relevance comes from the fact that technology is dominated by connected devices, cloud services and rapid product cycles
Historic hardware therefore provides a useful counterpoint to contemporary debates about electronic waste, right-to-repair, data dependence and the speed with which once-common devices become obsolete. Additional high-relevance terminology includes vintage technology, thermionic valve, vacuum tube, and pre-digital technology.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy ED4KYX - . Comptometer - key-driven mechanical calculator showing numbered button keys in monochrome. Photographed on 20 December 2014. The recorded location is England. The comptometer was the first commercially successful key-driven mechanical calculator. From a heritage perspective, pre-digital equipment provides a physical record of how calculation, attendance recording and electronic control were once mechanised
Comptometer keyboards, clocking-in machines and thermionic valves each represent specialist technologies that required training, maintenance and hands-on operation. The historical context is that everyday technology provides a compact history of design and changing behaviour
Rotary dials, thermionic valves, mechanical keypads, film cameras and early televisions were once ordinary equipment but now illustrate obsolete standards, manufacturing methods and patterns of work or communication. From a heritage perspective, textiles and clothing form part of material culture, linking personal appearance with skilled trades, manufacturing and retail
A close-up can therefore illustrate not only fashion but the techniques and labour behind a garment. As of 2026, calculation, payroll, attendance and communications are largely software-based, while vintage office and electronic equipment survives mainly in museums, collections and specialist restoration
Such objects are increasingly useful for illustrating the material history behind modern digital work. The subject remains topical in 2026 because smartphones, digital services and AI-enabled devices make older mechanical and analogue technologies appear even more distant, increasing their value for editorial comparisons about technological change, repairability, planned obsolescence and digital dependence. Further subject-specific language includes vintage technology, office machine, time clock, vacuum tube, electronic component, pre-digital technology, computing history, and business machine.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy ED9EPN - A necktie or simply tie is a long piece of cloth worn for decorative purposes around the neck or shoulders, resting under the shirt collar and knotted at the throat.
Variants include the ascot tie, bow tie, bolo tie, zipper tie, cravat and clip-on tie. The modern necktie, ascot, and bow tie are descended from the cravat. Neck ties are generally unsized, but may be available in a longer size. Men and boys wear neckties as part of regular office attire or formal wear.
Neckties can also be worn as part of a uniform (e.g. military, school and waitstaff), whereas some choose to wear them as everyday clothing attire. Neckties are traditionally worn with the top shirt button fastened, and the tie knot resting between the collar points. Among younger men, neckties are sometimes worn as a casual item, tied loosely around the neck, with the top shirt button unfastened

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DDJPGN - . Ladies stained glass pub toilet door in blue , England , UK. Photographed at Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, England, UK. The photograph was taken on 13 July 2013. This editorial stock image documents the subject as it appeared at that time, preserving a clear record of the place, its appearance and the everyday details surrounding it. The scene is closely associated with Ladies, stained, glass, toilet, door, public conveniences, conveniences, transgender, Angela Rayner and lady, adding specific subject detail and useful search context without losing the documentary focus on the main subject. Beyond the immediate subject, the scene is relevant to British pub culture, licensed premises, real ale, beer tourism and the continuing social role of the traditional public house. For picture buyers, the photograph can support editorial features about pubs and bars, hospitality, independent and managed venues, drinking culture, local heritage, city and town centres, leisure spending and the changing British high street. Details such as brewery branding, pub signage, entrances, windows, bar fittings, beer pumps or period architecture can provide useful visual evidence of how licensed premises present themselves to customers. The image also works as a record of everyday social history, documenting a familiar type of British hospitality venue at a particular moment in time rather than presenting an idealised studio view. Search themes naturally include British pub heritage, real ale and beer culture, licensed premises, hospitality, public houses, local drinking traditions and the role of pubs within town and city life. Where brewery names, pumps, windows, pub signs or period fittings are present, they add useful detail for features on brewing history, hospitality branding and traditional licensed interiors or exteriors. This particular view is catalogued under Alamy image reference DDJPGN, distinguishing it from other photographs of the same or related subject.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JM9P4H - A slot machine (American English), fruit machine (British English) or poker machine (Australian English and New Zealand English) is a gambling machine that creates a game of chance for its customers. Slot machines are also known pejoratively as one-armed bandits because of the large mechanical levers affixed to the sides of early mechanical machines and the games' ability to empty players' pockets and wallets as thieves would.[1]
A slot machine's standard layout features a screen displaying three or more reels that spin when the game is activated. Some modern slot machines still include a lever as a skeuomorphic design trait to trigger play. However, the mechanics of early machines have been superseded by random number generators, and most are now operated using buttons and touchscreens.
Slot machines include one or more currency detectors that validate the form of payment, whether coin, cash, voucher, or token. The machine pays out according to the pattern of symbols displayed when the reels stop spinning. Slot machines are the most popular gambling method in casinos and constitute about 70% of the average U.S. casino's income.[2]
Digital technology has resulted in variations in the original slot machine concept. As the player is essentially playing a video game, manufacturers can offer more interactive elements, such as advanced bonus rounds and more varied video graphics.
