  • LOST HOSPITALS of LONDON (Adapted from )
    LOST HOSPITALS OF LONDON (adapted from http://ezitis.myzen.co.uk/ ) Teddington Memorial Hospital Hampton Road, Teddington, Middlesex, TW11 OJL Medical Dates: 1875 – current Medical character: Acute. Later, community The Teddington and Hampton Wick Cottage Hospital opened in 1875 in a house – Elfin Grove Villas – which had been donated for the purpose by Thomas Chappell, of the music publishing and piano manufacturing firm. The Hospital had four beds. Its income, apart from subscriptions and donations, was raised by various activities, such as fetes, bazaars, concerts and plays. In-patients were charged one shilling (5p) a day towards their keep. By 1914, although the number of beds had increased to 24, the population of the area had grown and this bed accommodation had again become inadequate. With no further possibility of expansion on the site, a fund-raising campaign began to raise money for a new hospital on a new location. However, the outbreak of WW1 caused the plans to be postponed. After the war the Hospital Committee began to explore potential sites in 1919; it was intended that the new hospital would also serve as a War Memorial. Fund-raising began in earnest and a piece of land was acquired in Hampton Road for £2,000. The vendors also donated £1,000 towards the building fund. A magazine called Our Town was published in 1924 to raise money for the fund; this was renamed Swan and Stag in 1925 and was published annually until 1934 (the magazines are apparently available in the Twickenham Library, while the swan and the stag became the emblem of the Hospital).

  • No Vacancy: the Political Geography of Immigration Control in Advanced Industrial Countries Jeannette Money
    No Vacancy: The Political Geography of Immigration Control in Advanced Industrial Countries Jeannette Money This article examines the domestic political sources of immigration control in ad- vanced market economy countries after World War II.1 Immigration control can be distinguished from the broader concept of immigration policy by its emphasis on state policies that define the permissible level of resident alien admissions.2 The analysis is based on the well-established fact that immigrant communities are geo- graphically concentrated. I argue that this geographic concentration creates an un- even distribution of costs and benefits, providing a spatial context for immigration politics. In this context, net public demand for tighter immigration control increases in localities where immigrants concentrate when those areas experience higher unem- ployment, rapid increases in immigration, higher immigrant proportions, and more generous immigrant access to social services. Each of these conditions aggravates competition between immigrants and natives, and hence native hostility, in these communities while employer support for immigration usually diminishes. Yet na- tional politicians may ignore changes in the demand for immigration control unless these constituencies are also able to swing a national election from one party to another. The larger and less ‘‘safe’’ the local constituencies, the greater their influ- ence in this sense. Evidence from the United Kingdom between 1955 and 1981 is consistent with these propositions. I would like to acknowledge the financial support of the Center for International Relations at the Univer- sity of California, Los Angeles; the faculty senate of the University of California, Davis; the Center for German and European Studies (CGES) at the University of California, Berkeley; and the Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation at the University of California, San Diego.

Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed Dated ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am very grateful to my primary supervisor, Professor Alison Diduck, for her enthusiasm for this project, her encouragement from the earliest stages of my writing, and her example as a scholar. Thanks also to Professor Michael Freeman, my secondary supervisor, especially for his insights into eighties Britain in general, and the Thatcher phenomenon in particular. I might never have begun this work were it not for the gentle promptings of Dr Penny English. I thank her for her support throughout this project. Friends and colleagues, especially Professor John Gardner and Professor Rob Home, have provided sage advice and kept my spirits up. Anglia Ruskin University gave funding support and an invaluable period of sabbatical leave. I acknowledge the help of Jeremy McIlwaine, keeper of the Conservative Party archive at the Bodleian, and staff at the National Archives, in accessing some of the material I drew on in chapter four. It is appropriate in a thesis about family that family played a significant part in the realisation of my research aims. I am indebted to the unconditional love and support from my mother and late father (Irene and John Gilbert), and from Lionel and Barbara Scott. Truly, this thesis would not have been completed but for Beckie’s constant and cheerful support.

Your Majesty, ‘I have loved the habitation of thy house,’ it says. I can look at that night by night and be reminded that, amidst the opportunities and responsibilities that the Abbey brings, here was another Dean who was simply glad to be in such a glorious building and in such very good company. As the day draws to a close, the Abbey clergy and choir assemble in a corner of the nave for a prayer before we process into Evensong. Immediately, we cross the grave of George These words, and the rest of this Annual Report, were written before the arrival of Granville Bradley, who retired as Dean of Westminster in 1902 just after the coronation Covid-19, which is testing our resilience and resourcefulness in ways which were of Your Majesty’s great-grandfather, King Edward VII.
