Wimbledon FC to Milton Keynes This Summer Is a Critical Moment in London’S Football History
Culture, Sport and Tourism Away from home Scrutiny of London’s Football Stadiums June 2003 Culture, Sport and Tourism Away from home Scrutiny of London’s Football Stadiums June 2003 copyright Greater London Authority June 2003 Published by Greater London Authority City Hall The Queen’s Walk London SE1 2AA www.london.gov.uk enquiries 020 7983 4100 minicom 020 7983 4458 ISBN 1 85261 496 1 Cover photograph credit EMPICS Sports Photo Agency This publication is printed on recycled paper Chair’s Foreword The move by Wimbledon FC to Milton Keynes this summer is a critical moment in London’s football history. This move prompted the London Assembly’s Culture, Sport and Tourism committee to look into the issue of redevelopment for London clubs. With Fulham and Brentford yet to secure new stadiums for their clubs and question marks remaining over Arsenal’s and Tottenham’s grounds the issue is a live one. We do not want to see more clubs leave London. During the 2002/03 season about 5 million fans watched professional football in London. In addition, hundreds of thousands of Londoners participate every year in club sponsored community projects and play football. This report seeks to ensure that this added value isn’t lost to Londoners. We did not set out to judge local situations but to tease out lessons learnt by London football clubs. Football is more than just a business: the ties that a club has with its area and the fans that live or come from there are great. We recommend that more clubs have supporters on their board and applaud the work of Supporters Direct in rejuvenating the links between clubs and their fan base.

The Hogsmill in August 2019
The Hogsmill in August 2019 For much of the month until the late heatwave it was more like a typical summer along the Hogsmill: cool with plenty of showers. This wasn’t good for holidays but was better for the river and its wildlife: providing more vitality for the river; and green in the meadows that led to a burst of wildflowers for insects to enjoy. “Sweet, blue and yellow in Six Acre Meadow” This newsletter summarises the results of River Monitoring Initiative (RMI) sampling in August; and other river-related activities that monitor and aim to restore the habitat along the Hogsmill river. These are mostly undertaken by volunteers working with the South East Rivers Trust (SERT) and local groups, and alongside the Environment Agency (EA) and local water companies, mainly Thames Water (TW). The Hogsmill in August We had slightly more than average rainfall between RMI “weekends” this month. This gave a boost to the river level, which for the fourth month in a row was above the lows of last year at Worcester Park. Average Daily River Level at Worcester Park 1.6 1.5 1.4 1.3 1.2 Metres 1.1 1.0 0.9 2018 2019 1 The level has also been more stable with the rain spread out and not the occasional “deluges” of the early summer; and for much of the month there has been a steady flow of water, with a few small surges after rain. The water has also generally looked clearer and less affected by algae and weed than recent summers, though a notable exception is around Middle Mill where extensive weed has blanketed the river.

Programme Greater London Football League
Main Sponsor Umbro is a British sportswear and football equipment supplier based in Cheadle, Greater Manchester. The company is currently a subsidiary of Iconix Brand Group. Umbro designs, sources, and markets football-related apparel, footwear, and equipment. Its products are sold in over 90 countries worldwide. The company was founded by Harold Humphreys, along with his brother Wallace in a small workshop in Wilmslow, Cheshire, inspired by the growing interest in football witnessed nationwide. The name "Umbro" is a quasi-portmanteau inspired from Humphreys Brothers Clothing. Umbro's kit debut was in the 1934 FA Cup final, when both teams Manchester City and Portsmouth wore uniforms designed and manufactured by the company. Other teams supplied by Umbro during the 1930s and 1940s were Sheffield United, Preston North End, Manchester United and Blackpool. Umbro was the official sports manufacturer of the English FA Cup and official sponsor of The FA, being the exclusive supplier of balls to the body's leagues. In 1952, the British team at the Summer Olympics wore Umbro kits, tailored for the needs of their individual sports. Umbro would supply kits for the British Olympics team for the next 20 years. In 1957 Umbro entered the tennis market, producing sports clothing in collaboration with player Ted Tinling. This collaboration extended for three decades. Another sportsman who collaborated with Umbro was Manchester United manager Matt Busby, in 1959. That same year the company started to sell its junior boys' kits, a set of shirt, shorts and socks that would allow young players to wear the same look as their footballing idols.

Flood Risk Position Statement, Kingston Upon Thames, Issued By
FLOOD RISK POSITION STATEMENT, KINGSTON UPON THAMES, ISSUED BY MEMBERS OF KINGSTON ENVIRONMENT CENTRE & KINGSTON ENVIRONMENT FORUM. The River Hogsmill in flood between Rose Walk and Green Lane Recreation Ground, Berrylands, 1937. This image has been produced with permission from the website Britain from above. http://www.britainfromabove.org.uk/image/epw052372 Tel Mob.0786 750 7086 Email comments to [email protected] March, 2016 Proposals for an updated flood risk strategy from Kingston Environment Centre and Kingston Environment Forum Introduction The borough of Kingston includes several rivers, parts of which are subject to flooding (see, for example, Illustration 3). The Hogsmill River flows through important flood-plain land and the river valley performs an important drainage and water attenuation function. The local development footprint has increased in recent years so that we can now see the impact on increased river flow even after limited rainfall: standing water is retained on low lying areas such as Kingston Recreation Ground and Hogsmill Sewage Works throughout the winter. Most of the flood events in the borough have been alluvial or from storm water except the last, mostly involving the Hogsmill river: 1937 (front cover) 1947, 1968 and 1974. New developments and population growth will increase the pressures on our aging drain system; and one effect of climate change seems to be increased and heavier rainfall: flooding that was formerly expected to occur once in 100 years now happens with increased frequency1. Many recent flood events are due to urban storm water run-off (pluvial flooding). These factors make it vital that Kingston updates its flood risk strategy, making flood prevention a priority, applying the strategy determinedly in planning decisions, and enforcing flood alleviation measures.

13 Berrylands Origins and General Character
13 Berrylands Origins and General Character The Area is bounded by the railway line in the north, the Hogsmill river in the east and the A3 to the south. The western edge of the area abuts the older, Victorian areas of Surbiton around the King Charles Road area. Regent Road and Seymour Gardens now occupy the site where Regent House, built around 1890, once stood. It was the first significant building within the Area. Berry- lands Road was extended into the Area around 1890, and Berrylands Farm, formerly Berry Lodge Farm, stood on the site of the present Manor Crescent. The surrounding area of the area, up until the early 1930’s, was covered in farmland. Between the 1930’s and 40’s the area was rapidly devel- oped as a large residential suburb of Kingston built at relatively low densities. The area has a very strong and distinctive street pattern with significant grass verges and a variety of interwar subur- ban detailing. Land Use Predominantly residential, MOL around the Hogsmill River and Alexandra Drive recreation ground. Local retail parades Movement Relatively minor suburban routes with Raeburn Avenue being the central north/south route through the Area. Berrylands Station at Chiltern Drive serves the northern part of the Area. Built form Long formal avenues lined with substantial grass verges of predominantly 1930’s semi detached housing, but also some bungalows and detached houses. Range of interwar detailing including Tudor details, pantiles, leaded light windows with a mixture of brick, pebbledash and rendered finishes. Some areas of distinct housing styles including art deco at the northern end of Grand Avenue.
