  • The Jersey Heritage Answersheet
    THE JERSEY HERITAGE Monuments Quiz ANSWERSHEET 1 Seymour Tower, Grouville Seymour Tower was built in 1782, 1¼ miles offshore in the south-east corner of the Island. Jersey’s huge tidal range means that the tower occupies the far point which dries out at low tide and was therefore a possible landing place for invading troops. The tower is defended by musket loopholes in the walls and a gun battery at its base. It could also provide early warning of any impending attack to sentries posted along the shore. 2 Faldouet Dolmen, St Martin This megalithic monument is also known as La Pouquelaye de Faldouët - pouquelaye meaning ‘fairy stones’ in Jersey. It is a passage grave built in the middle Neolithic period, around 4000 BC, the main stones transported here from a variety of places up to three miles away. Human remains were found here along with finds such as pottery vessels and polished stone axes. 3 Cold War Bunker, St Helier A German World War II bunker adapted for use during the Cold War as Jersey’s Civil Emergency Centre and Nuclear Monitoring Station. The building includes a large operations room and BBC studio. 4 Statue of King George V in Howard Davis Park Bronze statue of King George V wearing the robes of the Sovereign of the Garter. Watchtower, La Coupe Point, St Martin 5 On the highest point of the headland is a small watchtower built in the early 19th century and used by the Royal Navy as a lookout post during the Napoleonic wars. It is sturdily constructed of mixed stone rubble with a circular plan and domed top in brick.

  • R.134-2011 Fort Regent Political Steering Group- Interim Report
    STATES OF JERSEY FORT REGENT POLITICAL STEERING GROUP: INTERIM REPORT Presented to the States on 8th November 2011 by the Minister for Education, Sport and Culture STATES GREFFE 2011 Price code: C R.134 2 REPORT Steering Group members: Deputy J.G. Reed of St. Ouen (Chairman) Senator P.F. Routier Connétable J.M. Refault of St. Peter Deputy R.C. Duhamel of St. Saviour Deputy T.M. Pitman of St. Helier Connétable A.S. Crowcroft of St. Helier Executive Summary Two issues have dominated past discussions about the future of Fort Regent – funding and access. Realistically, there can be no development of the centre on a major scale until these 2 issues are addressed. Accordingly, the Steering Group has compiled an action plan that identifies the next steps. It was clear from the start of this process that further detailed work would be required and it was also clear that this would take time. The Steering Group has been able to pinpoint the next investigations that will be required and the bodies who are able to move this project forward. We have also identified realistic actions that can benefit Fort Regent immediately, be achieved in the short term and do not require significant expenditure. These steps, although small, will help improve the current facility while more detailed work is carried out on medium- and long-term objectives. All the points are set out in an Action Plan in section 5 of this report according to the timescale in which they are achievable. Over and above this plan, the Steering Group has been able to identify a set of guiding principles to use in determining the future of the facility – • Sport, leisure and club facilities: maintain and enhance the existing provision and improve social facilities; • History: ensure the historic nature of the site is conserved and made more accessible to the general public; • Architecture: retain the iconic nature of Fort Regent structures; • Private finance: explore opportunities for adding development to current structure in partnership with private sector.

  • The Yard Town Walk
    RITAG E E H The Yard O N TAP town walk Explore the history of St Helier with this guided walk which starts and ends at The Yard at Jersey Museum & Art Gallery. Approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Leave the Museum by the side gate and exit into Ordnance Yard. Ordnance Yard Ordnance Yard is one of the few remaining cobbled lanes and yards that were typical of St Helier around 1800. ‘The Yard’ occupies space within a 19th century warehouse built to serve the historic harbour of St Helier. At one time, ships would have been moored in the area in front of the Museum but the land was reclaimed in the 19th Jersey Museum century and a new harbour was built in the current location. Walk around the back of the Museum and pause at the bottom of the long flight of granite steps. High above you can just see the top of the Fort Regent signal station where a series of flags and symbols were used to signal the arrival and departure of vessels and also to warn of storms. This is a reminder of a time when the Island was completely dependent on the sea for the movement of people and goods. Climb the steps to Pier Road. On 9 May 1945 a party of British liberating soldiers climbed these steps to reach Fort Regent where they took down the Nazi flag of the defeated German occupying force and replaced it with the Union flag. Turn left at the top of the steps and walk down Pier Road.

  • What Plans Are There to Mark the 200Th Anniversary of Fort Regent
    2.5 � Connétable A.S. Crowcroft of St. Helier of the Minister for Education, Sport and Culture regarding the 200th Anniversary of Fort Regent: Would the Minister explain what plans he has, if any, to mark the 200th anniversary of Fort Regent? Senator M.E. Vibert (The Minister for Education, Sport and Culture): May I thank the Constable for asking the question, which allows me to give some prominence to the 200th anniversary of Fort Regent? The foundation stone at Fort Regent was laid in November 1806 and to mark this 200th anniversary, there has been an awareness-raising programme throughout 2006, with banners in Fort Regent and a logo on literature sent out from Fort Regent. The Blue Badge Guides have included Fort Regent in many of their walks this year and highlighted the anniversary. Media coverage has highlighted the anniversary on various occasions throughout the year, and there have been photographic and art displays at the Fort. Two of the Fort’s very large cannons have been refurbished and brought inside for the display. E.S.C. (Education, Sports and Culture), my department, will also be shortly publishing a conservation statement on Fort Regent which will recognise its importance as an historical monument. I am pleased to say that the Lieutenant Governor has accepted an invitation to unveil a commemorative plaque to mark the anniversary on 9th November and all States Members will shortly be receiving their invitations to that event. 2.5.1 Deputy P.V.F. Le Claire: Would the Minister agree with me that the 200th anniversary of Fort Regent represents a real, positive opportunity to decide once and for all a positive future for Fort Regent, and will he undertake with his department to try to establish one in this anniversary?

  • Channel Islands Telegraph Company
    A History of the Telegraph in Jersey 1858 – 1940 Graeme Marett MIET This edition July 2009 1 The Telegraph System. Jersey, being only a relatively small outpost of the British Empire, was fortunate in having one of the earliest submarine telegraph systems. Indeed the installation of the first UK-Channel Islands link was made concurrently with the first attempted (but abortive) trans-Atlantic cable in 18581. There was some British Government interest in the installation of such a cable, since the uncertain relationship with the French over the past century had led to the fortification of the Channel Islands as a measure to protect Channel shipping lanes. The islands were substantially fortified and garrisons were maintained well into the early part of the twentieth century. Indeed, the Admiralty had installed an Optical Telegraph between the islands during the Napoleonic wars using a bespoke system developed by Mulgrave2. Optical signalling using a two arm semaphore was carried out between Alderney and Sark and Sark to Jersey and Guernsey. The main islands of Jersey and Guernsey had a network of costal stations. This system was abandoned by the military at the end of the conflict in 1814, but the States of Jersey were loaned the stations and continued to use the system for several years thereafter for commercial shipping. The optical semaphore links between La Moye, Noimont and St Helier continued until a telegraph line was installed in April 1887 between La Moye and St Helier. There is still some evidence of this telegraph network at Telegraph Bay in Alderney, where a fine granite tower is preserved, and the Signalling Point at La Moye, Jersey which survives as a private residence.
