To follow in the footsteps of Mr. Copeland could not have been easy, yet Mr. Everatt has maintained the old Poole House tradition, after the very different surroundings of Ferens House. On and off the sports field Poolites have shown their undoubted talents. The Rugby teams, although rather young on the whole, represented the House admirably even though they did not bring home any cups. The inter-house Swimming competition brought a new School record to Poole in the form of Peter Oliver. During the Summer term, Sports Day proved to be one of the House’s strong points with several bronze, silver and gold medals being awarded. But without a doubt it was the Dunelm Run which brought the major glories of the year; Robert Redpath finished a magnificent second place. Also in this field the House achieved the Grand Slam in winning the Senior, Middle and Junior running events. On the academic side three of the younger members of the House (Harry Humble, Dominic Cummings and John Spark) were placed fourth best team in the North-East in a Public Speaking competition. Obviously another and successful year with the new Housemaster, Matron and Tutors fitting in with and helping enormously the progress of the Poole House Team!

Brussels PRINTED FOR MELINE, CANS A.ND C"., EOILEVARD DE WATERLOO, Zi. M DCCC XXXIX. MR V. un:ve PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

  • Racing Culture: the Racecourse and Racecourse Life
    5 Racing culture: the racecourse and racecourse life hile people could not avoid having views on racing only a minority Wactually attended race-meetings, and it is to the cultural and social life of the racegoing public that we now turn. The anticipatory thrill of travel was important, and a first section deals briefly with changes in travel over the period. A following more substantial section deals with social relationships, behaviour and attendance in relation to social class and gender. Changes and continuities in the comfort and facilities of the course, and in the ancillary activities such as sideshows, food and drink provision, tipsters or bookmakers are next explored, before the chapter concludes with an assessment of the ‘moral panic’ associated with the racecourse crime of the early 1920s. Transport Travel to the races was important to the racing experience. Changes in the domi- nant mode of transport, with their implications for conspicuous display, social interaction, and patterns of accommodation use in the racing towns, form a peripheral but important theme in the social history of racing. As a sport with its roots in rural horse-owning life, racing, and especially steeplechase and point-to- point meetings, still attracted rural dwellers travelling on horseback in the early 1920s, as entrance figures show, although motor enclosures were raising more than twice as much revenue by the later 1920s. Carriages became rare, although the larger four-in-hand coach was to be found occasionally at Epsom for the Derby, at Ascot, or at more prestigious point-to-points. Their continued appeal was partly sentimental.

  • The Geography of the Tees Valley Economy (2016)
    The Geography of the Tees Valley Economy April 2016 Executive Summary Previous work by Centre for Cities has shown that city centres have become increasingly important to the performance of the UK economy as a whole, particularly when looking at the growth of higher-paid, knowledge- based activities. Given the probability that the UK economy will continue to specialise in these types of activities, and the preference that these activities have for a central location, city centres are likely to become ever more important to the national economy in the future. Central Middlesbrough plays the role of the primary city centre of the wider Tees Valley economy. While accounting for just 0.2 per cent of all land, it accounts for 5.9 per cent of all jobs in the Tees Valley, and 12.8 per cent of all knowledge-based services jobs. The problem is that Middlesbrough city centre performs poorly compared to other British city centre economies. This is to the detriment to the wider Tees Valley economy, which has a share of jobs in knowledge- based services that is below the national average and below average productivity too. If the Tees Valley is to attract investment in more knowledge-based activities in the future, it needs to improve the attractiveness of Middlesbrough city centre, in particular as a place to invest in and do business. This will require the forthcoming mayor and combined authority for the Tees Valley to take a spatial approach to economic development policy in order to improve the economic performance of the Tees Valley and the opportunities available to the residents who live in and around it.
