  • The Second World War 1939-45
    CHAPTER 3 THE SECOND WORLD WAR 1939-45 MAP MODIFIED FROM ATLAS OF WARFARE: NATKIEL & PIMLOTT In the First World War, the aeroplane was in its infancy and, for all the strides made in development, it remained an ancillary of land and sea operations. The Second World War, however, brought air power to its maturity; the aeroplane became a decisive weapon and the outcome of both land and sea battles depended upon air superiority. 91 THE SECOND WORLD WAR 1939-45 Between 1939-45 the RAF was in the forefront of the exercise of air power; it prevented an invasion of Britain; it supported British Armies in North Africa, Italy, NW Europe and the Far East; it fought continuously over the seas around Britain, over the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean and over the Indian Ocean; and it played a major role (together with the US Army Air Force) in the strategic bombing offensive against Germany. Of the major air forces of the Second World War, the German, Italian, Japanese and Russian were organized and equipped primarily to support their respective armies on the ground; only the RAF and US Army Air Force had well-developed plans for the independent use of air power in maritime and strategic bombing offensive roles. THE LUFTWAFFE From the first to the last day of the war in Europe, the major opponent of the RAF was the German Luftwaffe. Since the RAF and the Luftwaffe were locked in combat for so long, it is worth looking briefly at their plans for an air war at the start of the Second World War.

  • A History of Bentley Priory Open Space
    Some Notes on the History of Bentley Priory Open Space When the Bentley Priory estate was broken up in 1926, Middlesex County Council bought 90 acres of the site for use as public open space. The land was subsequently transferred to the GLC and then, in 1968, it came into the ownership of the London Borough of Harrow. The Harrow Natural History Society (HNHS) was formed in 1970 and the following year its members began to survey the area and record the flora and fauna. In 1973 they designed a nature trail to guide visitors around the site, at that time known as Bentley Priory Common or Park, which did not include Summerhouse Lake. The first journal of the HNHS, produced in 1973, contained a map and description of the nature trail. There was also an account of the flora of the common and the first of two articles by Alan Tinsey, describing the results of his survey of Boot Pond. Alan’s second article, and an updated description of the nature trail, appeared in the 1974 journal. A list of the birds that had been recorded in Harrow included observations made on Bentley Priory Common and on Summerhouse Lake. By 1973 plans were afoot to have the area around Summerhouse Lake declared a Nature Reserve. These finally came to fruition in 1975 and an article in the HNHS society journal of 1976 describes how this happened. Here are some extracts from this article. There had been much controversy concerning the fate of the lake. The lake was just a lake as far as the maps were concerned and it did not possess an official name.
