This year there will be at least two Quiz Corner 15 motions to consider: One will propose that our Vice-Presidents become Events 16 honorary members of the Society. The second will propose an increase in subscriptions (the first increase for about 10 years). Teddington Station SITUATIONS VACANT A number of Committee Members are standing down so those of you who 150 years have been thinking about becoming more involved in the Society, this is your chance. The nomination procedure is on the insert. Vacancies are: Secretary & Membership Secretary & Minutes Secretary The duties of each are probably self-evident. For Membership Secretary, the principal duties are maintaining and updating the membership database. Pete Shaw and Sally Howland have put in a tremendous amount of effort over the year to rationalise and update the database so that it is now much simpler to administer. And of course Peter and Sally are always there to help. David Lawton is also standing down as the Environment Group convenor. A “willing” volunteer has stepped forward and is ready to accept nomination. Of course, anyone can be nominated for any post regardless of whether the incumbent is standing down. I will try to email details of the motions and nominations received a few days before the AGM to those on our email database. They will also be available at the AGM.

The project is ambitious for a number of reasons – but in terms of this Business Plan, most importantly because it will provide a complete step change in the level of commercial activity onsite. Turnover will increase onsite fourfold to around £1m p.a. as a direct result of the project , and expenditure will increase by around a third. This Business Plan provides a detailed assessment of the forecast operational performance of Marble Hill House and Park under the project.

It is the fastest way to travel across the city to visit some of the 170 museums in the capital. Richmond-upon-Thames, Surrey.

  • The Langdon Downs and Normansfield
    THE LANGDON DOWNS AND NORMANSFIELD Richard Husband Dr John Langdon Down (1828-1896) was born the youngest of six children in Torpoint, Devon. His father was in business as a druggist, grocer and linen draper and the family lived over the shop. In 1847 John passed the Pharmaceutical Society's examinations and in 1853 entered the London Hospital Medical School. He qualified as a doctor and became Medical Superintendant at the Royal Earlswood Asylum for Idiots in 1856, a post he held until 1868. In 1859 he was elected Assistant Physician at the Royal London Hospital and then upon his resignation in 1868 commenced in practice at 38 Welbeck Street, London W. In 1881, he moved to larger premises nearby at 81 Harley Street. He bought the White House, soon to be renamed Normansfield on the borders of Hampton Wick and Teddington in 1868 which, following his experiences at Earlswood, became a Private Home for the "care, education and treatment of those of good social position who present any degree of mental deficiency". The White Dr John Langdon Down House came with five acres of grounds and soon after purchase, adjoining properties were added so that the establishment eventually extended to 43 acres. In 1879 the Normansfield theatre was opened which served both as an entertainment centre and a church. From an initial 19 patients in 1868, Normansfield had 145 patients by the time Dr John Langdon Down died suddenly in 1896. Throughout this period, he remained Medical Superintendent and his wife Mary, whom he had married in 1860, acted as Administrator.

  • Harley Street
    DRAFT CHAPTER 12 Harley Street Harley Street was conceived in the early eighteenth century but most was only laid out and built up in the 1750s–80s. All but a small portion at the north end, on Crown land, belonged to the Cavendish–Harley or Portland Estate, and today remains in the hands of its successor, the Howard de Walden Estate. It extends from Cavendish Square to Marylebone Road, with only four cross-streets, and this great length – combined with the uniformity and relative plainness of the original Georgian terraces – made it among the most monotonous of London streets. This began to change from the 1890s until the First World War, when a growing number of houses were rebuilt under the watchful eye of the estate authorities, bringing a new variety of styles and materials to challenge the dominance of flat brick fronts with sparing Coade-stone ornament. Harley Street’s association with the topmost echelons of medical specialization developed in the second half of the nineteenth century, and though it dimmed a little in the years after the Second World War, in part due to the establishment of the National Health Service, it has since enjoyed a resurgence with the growth of private health-care. Despite the high concentration of medical consulting rooms, the street has by and large preserved its residential appearance, though for the most part residence is now confined to upper-floor flats. Note on street numbering. The present system dates from 1866, when the two blocks of housing between Weymouth Street and Marylebone Road, originally known as Upper Harley Street, were renamed and renumbered along with the rest of the street in a continuous sequence – odd numbers on the west side, evens on the east.
