  • Gloving, Philanthropy and the Marrying of Polly. (C) David Walsh 2010, 2013 the Hubbub Came a Hundred Years Later When the Last of the Allcrofts, Jewell, Died in 1992
    A forgotten fortune I never grew up with any whisper of gold in the family – no tale of a lost fortune and no hint of amazingly generous presents from distant relatives. The sale of an extraordinary collection of Edwardian travel souvenirs totalling $3 million could have gone un-noticed by me had I not sniffed out the full story a while earlier. My uncle asserted that our distant aunties were Amelia Alcroft and Sophy Martin. The will of Sophy showed otherwise. She was, in 1870, a spinster living with her companion at 4 Ebenezer Terrace, Plumstead, Kent. Despite the clerk’s spidery hand I established that the man charged with proving her estate was an Allcroft, J.D. Allcroft Esquire of 55 Porchester Gate. Could this be somehow relevant to the ‘Amelia Alcroft’ on our tree? I found that this man had left nearly half a million pounds in his estate at his own death, twenty years later. Could this be our forgotten family fortune? Gloving philanthrophy, travel, and the marrying of Polly This chapter begins with a letter sent from a coffee plantation in the Port Royal Mountains, Jamaica in 1853. Polly Martin, 22, and emphatically not Amelia, was sitting at home in her mother’s smart drawing room in Woolwich when the words reached her. Henry Lowry, trying his luck as a mine agent, had gallantly offered to find a husband for his sisters-in-law “to turn mademoiselle into madame” if Polly and Sophy would come out too. They would meet many nice people, he said. He also offered a cuddle to young Georgie, then eight or nine.

  • Three Periods of English Architecture
    MBMTRAND SMITHS BOOK STORE M# PACIFIC A VENUS LONG BEACH. CALTP. THREE PERIODS OF <$> ENGLISH ARCHITECTURE. IMPORTED BY CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS, NEW YORK. THREE PERIODS^ OF ENGLISH ARC HITECTURE BY THOMAS HARRIS F R I B A- FSANI«$> B-T-BATSFORDf LONDON f 1 894 CHISWICK PRESS : —CHARLES WHITTINGHAM AND CO. TOOKS COURT, CHANCERY LANE, LONDON. PREFACE. the following pages much is advanced which may- INjustify the charge of lack of novelty. It is, however, the author's intention to be little more than " a gatherer and disposer of other men's stuff," his object being to advance the cause of architectural progress, not so much by enunciating his own views, as by showing how much has been said on the subject by others. This will explain the apparent abruptness of some of the quotations, they being, for the most part, introduced with little attempt at constructive arrangement, where they appeared to best elucidate the text, or to lend the authority of some well- known name to the proposition under consideration ; but they will be found to form a kind of thought mosaic, each one either helping to strengthen, or in some cases to tone down, the others with which it is connected. The progress herein alluded to has found many advo- cates at the Royal Institute of British Architects, and names of the highest repute are associated with it. Archi- tectural publications, both here and in America, have frequently given expression to the longing for relief from the bondage to which the profession has been so long subject, and from the delusions which have militated against the clear apprehension of the destiny of their art.

  • Onibury Level Crossing Upgrade Frequently Asked Questions
    Onibury Level Crossing Upgrade Frequently Asked Questions 1. Why are you temporarily closing Onibury level crossing? Situated on the A49 - a major trunk road connecting Leominster and Shrewsbury - Onibury level crossing is heavily used with approximately 6,000 vehicles crossing daily. The track layout and the interface between the railway and road mean that vehicles approach the crossing at an angle. This sees additional pressure being placed on the surface of the crossing, causing deterioration of the surface and the formation of pot- holes. We need to close the level crossing to deliver a long-term solution that will address these issues. 2. What are the benefits of carrying out this work? In the last six months, the surface of Onibury level crossing has failed numerous times resulting in emergency road closures to allow us to deliver remedial work. The temporary closure of the level crossing will allow us to completely renew the crossing and upgrade the track. This essential work will also significantly extend the life of the crossing and help prevent repeated closures in the future. The new level crossing panels that we will be installing will be made of black rubber instead of concrete. This new surface will be far more durable and smoother for vehicles using the crossing. 3. How long will it take for you to carry out this work? We will be setting up our site compound in the area adjacent to Onibury Village Hall from Tuesday 27 June 2017 and closing the level crossing from 00.01 on Saturday 1 July until 06.00 on Monday 10 July.

The majority are taken from highly detailed 25" maps and are scale reduced to approximately 15" to the mile. Almost all include notes on the history of the area by leading historians with details of principal residents and trades. The second category, which are the one inch to the mile scale, cover a wider area but with of course, far less detail.
