Archives Keep Pace with the Games
Wednesday 13 June 2012 ARCHIVES KEEP PACE WITH THE GAMES As London takes centre stage this summer for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, archives across the country are set to show off the feats of British sports and games over the last 200 years. Remarkable tales from the Olympic Games, including those held in London in 1908 and 1948, are revealed as part of the Archive Awareness Campaign: Sports, Games and the Olympics. From Cornwall to London, Birmingham to Manchester, East Lothian to Conwy, British sporting legacy will be brought to life; and archive organisations, local record offices and councils are inviting the public to discover the stories behind the history of sport and sporting heroes in their communities. Caroline Williams, President of the Archives and Records Association (UK & Ireland) said: “The 2012 London Games is a once-in-a-lifetime celebration and what better way for archives up and down the country to pay homage to our sporting legacy both historical and contemporary than with an archival sports festival”. As well as honouring Olympians and Paralympians, archives will trace the history of sports and the achievements of local champions. Highlights include: Royal Albert Hall The Royal Albert Hall, one of the world's greatest multi-sport venues, will chart the history of sports played at the Hall since its opening in 1871 http://life.royalalberthall.com/2012/03/sport-at-the-hall/ . The Hall‟s Royal Charter did not specify that it could be used for sporting events; however it was used for cycling demonstrations and military displays which included gymnastics, fencing, wrestling and tug-of-wars. -
Simon Roberts Pierdom
SIMON ROBERTS PIERDOM 10 September - 12 October 2013 Private View Tuesday 10 September 6 - 8pm Flowers Gallery 82 Kingsland Road London E2 8DP +44 (0)20 7920 7777 Teignmouth Grand Pier, Devon, July 2011, Fujicolour Crystal Archive Print, 122 x 152 cm / 48 x 60 inch British photographer Simon Roberts has spent the past three years creating Pierdom, a comprehensive survey of Britain’s piers. Predominantly constructed during the 19th Century in the context of expanding Victorian seaside resorts and railways, these structures were often erected as landing docks for pleasure steamers and other sea craft. Growing to accommodate the needs of day-trippers escaping the smog of the city, engineers began to incorporate bandstands, cafes and music halls into their designs, embracing the growing notion of ‘pleasure seeking’ by the seaside. Pierdom addresses the historical significance of these architectural structures placed in comparison with their modern interpretation and functionality. Roberts’ photographs of ruinous piers such as Birnbeck Pier (2012) are in contrast with those such as Ryde Pier (2012) in which the local community and everyday usage of the landscape is represented by a skate boarding park which dominates the composition. It is this socio-cultural element of the landscape that has sustained Roberts’ interest, revealing a deep fascination with the way humans interact with their environment, and in eccentric British pastimes. At the turn of the century the British coastline boasted over 100 piers, some modest and functional, others elegant, exotic Victorian structures thrusting out into the sea. Now under half remain, the others destroyed by fierce weather and fires, with many dismantled during the 2nd World War to prevent German landings. -

Rails by the Sea.Pdf
1 RAILS BY THE SEA 2 RAILS BY THE SEA In what ways was the development of the seaside miniature railway influenced by the seaside spectacle and individual endeavour from 1900 until the present day? Dr. Marcus George Rooks, BDS (U. Wales). Primary FDSRCS(Eng) MA By Research and Independent Study. University of York Department of History September 2012 3 Abstract Little academic research has been undertaken concerning Seaside Miniature Railways as they fall outside more traditional subjects such as standard gauge and narrow gauge railway history and development. This dissertation is the first academic study on the subject and draws together aspects of miniature railways, fairground and leisure culture. It examines their history from their inception within the newly developing fairground culture of the United States towards the end of the 19th. century and their subsequent establishment and development within the UK. The development of the seaside and fairground spectacular were the catalysts for the establishment of the SMR in the UK. Their development was largely due to two individuals, W. Bassett-Lowke and Henry Greenly who realized their potential and the need to ally them with a suitable site such as the seaside resort. Without their input there is no doubt that SMRs would not have developed as they did. When they withdrew from the culture subsequent development was firmly in the hands of a number of individual entrepreneurs. Although embedded in the fairground culture they were not totally reliant on it which allowed them to flourish within the seaside resort even though the traditional fairground was in decline. -

Lloyd Johnson
TEBBS LLOYD JOHNSON Tebbs Lloyd Johnson was born at Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire on 7th April 1900. He was quite a useful boxer in his army days, 1918-20. With proper training, he thought he could have done quite well as a high jumper. On Good Friday, 1921, at Birmingham in a 2 mile handicap, he began a race walking career that was to cover 40 years and one which must rank as one of the longest and most successful in the history of race walking in England. During this period he won 6 National titles, was placed on 15 occasions and competed in two Olympic Games. Whilst a member of Leicester Harriers he took bronze in the RWA 20 Mile championships in 1923 and 1924 and won silver in 1925. He also showed good versatility in taking bronze in the AAU 3 Mile track championship in 1926. As the Harriers had only a walking membership of two or three, he joined Surrey A. C. around 1926. In their ranks he won the 1927 National 20 Mile event (2:55:53) and led their team to their first and only victory in a National Championship. The club expressed their thanks by making Lloyd a life member. In 1927 the “Leicester Mercucy” walk started and Leicester W.C. was formed. Thus he was able to join a club nearer home. He then walked with that club for the duration of his long and illustrious career. Controversies in the 1924 Olympic Games had spelt an end to Olympic track walking and indeed nearly spelt the end of walking. -
