A Brief History of Waltham Cross
History of Waltham Cross Eleanor Monument The resting place of Queen Eleanor during her funeral procession was known as Waltham and the location was already known to Edward l as he, like former kings, hunted in Waltham Forest. The abbey was built 350 years earlier, during the reign of King Harold. When Edward died at Burgh on The Sands in Cumbria his body was kept at the Abbey for five weeks before its interment at Westminster Abbey in London. It is believed that the location chosen for the monument was a hamlet a mile away from Waltham. It was a main road at a crossroad point where travellers would be able to view it from several directions. In 1720, Stamford Vicar William Stukeley, made a drawing of the monument at Waltham Cross and presented it to the newly founded Society of Antiquaries. They undertook works to protect it from the increasing traffic. In 1795, Sir George Prescott tried to have it moved to Theobalds Park, but failed after official intervention. The first major restoration took place in 1833 by WB Clark, but these improvements lasted just 50 years and further work was required in the 1880s. Eleanor Cross Road was bombed during World War Two, and although the monument didn’t suffer a direct hit it was damaged by the resulting tremors. Following the war, in 1950 a major restoration took place. The statutes were relocated briefly to Cheshunt library and for a time they were stored in Cedars Park conservatory before being loaned long term to the Victoria and Albert Museum for safe keeping. -

GB 0046 D/ECb Hertfordshire Archives and Local Studies This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 13977 The National Archives HERTFORDSHIRE RECORD OFFICE D/ECb Deeds of the Koddesdon Brewery and a number of licensed houses owned or leased by the brevors. Deposited by Messrs. Boulton Sons and Sandeman for the Cannon Brewery. Inventory compiled: LAccession 162] March 1968 D/ECb Introduction This collection consists of deeds incident to the conveyance of the vhole of the Hoddesdon Brewery and all its licensed houses in 1866 and titl e deeds of some of those houses and of others that were acquired later. The expansion of Hoddesdon Brewery dates from its purchase by William Whittingstall from Rene Briand in 1781. From that date til l his death in 1803, rfhittingstall systematically enlarged the brewery*s commercial outlets by buying up a number of public houses in the surrounding district. Messrs. John Christie and George Cathrow bought the property from Vhittingstall's executors and at the death of Cathrow in 1842 it was sold privately to a new partnership of Messrs. Peter Christie, John Back and Robert Hunt. After Peter Christie's death and when 3ack and Hunt had retired to their country estates, the firm was conveyed in 1866 to Charles Peter Christie. On his death in 1898 it was turned into a public company which 30 years later was absorbed by the Cannon Brewery of London, later controlled by Taylor, Valker and Co. and now by the Ind Coope combine. -
Royal Connections to Dunstable
Royal DUNSTABLE Connections One of twelve resting places for Queen Eleanor's funeral procession in 1290. Henry I established a town around the crossroads in Dunstable around 1109 and by 1123 had built a royal residence, to take advantage of the hunting grounds. The site is now occupied by the Old Palace Lodge Hotel, Kingsbury Court and the Norman King pub (which was sadly burned down in August 2011). On the wall outside the Norman King was the following inscription: "On the site of this inn and the adjoining ground, Henry I had a palace built where he regularly stayed from 1109, and which was known as Kingsbury." Henry founded a priory (a small monastery) in Dunstable in 1131. He granted the prior control of Dunstable Priory - founded 1131 : Chris Smith the town. However he had already promised the townspeople the same freedoms as the citizens of In 1291 the King ordered crosses to be erected to mark the London.

Sixth Form Curriculum Guide 2018 Admissions the SIXTH FORM at BERKHAMSTED
Sixth Form Curriculum Guide 2018 Admissions THE SIXTH FORM AT BERKHAMSTED Sixth Form can bring some of the happiest days as students benefit from a real sense of purpose in preparing for the next phase of life and an increasing sense of responsibility as they act as role models and take on leadership positions. The main aim of Berkhamsted Sixth is to produce confident, ambitious, well-qualified and happy individuals who have the skills to rise to the challenges of the modern and ever-changing world. As nearly all our students go on to higher education, the Sixth Form has a strong academic focus. A level work is challenging and requires a high level of motivation and responsibility. Self-discipline is crucial, as is a willingness to be fully involved in academic study. Sixth Form students will receive encouragement and support to achieve their potential in their A levels, but they also need to commit themselves to working hard over two years. The Sixth Form also aims to develop other interests and skills - academic, cultural, physical and social. It is a time when the individual can explore ideas and learn to think independently in preparation for university and the professional world. Initiative, creativity and the enhancement of academic and professional skills are encouraged. We hope students will enjoy their time in the Sixth Form and feel able to make contributions to life at the school. Essentially, the Sixth Form provides invaluable preparation for life in the adult world. The strong House system is a key feature of the Sixth Form which helps the students to gain a sense of belonging to a community. -
