The Red Plaques of Gibraltar
THE RED PLAQUES OF GIBRALTAR This document has been compiled by: Julia Harris Contact on: [email protected] Date completed: May 2014 THANKS TO: - Gail Francis-Tiron for her help when needed - Pepe Rosado for reading this and making his valued comments - Claire Montado for giving me some of the older photos to use - My parents for their gentle ‘reminders’ to get this finished and proof reading! INTRODUCTION: These cast iron red plaques were placed around Gibraltar between 1959 and 1975 in possibly the first attempt to present the rocks history to visitors and residents. They were the work of the Gibraltar Museum Committee which at the time was under the chairmanship of the Hon. Mrs Dorothy Ellicott O.B.E., J.P. (see appendix III). Modern information boards will perhaps replace them (see ‘Future’ section below), but I hope this will not happen. They are their own piece of Gibraltar’s history. When I first noticed and started taking photos of these red plaques I looked for a record of how many there were to find. After speaking to The Heritage Trust and Tourist Board I was told there was not an up to date, completed list. So, here is mine, consisting of 49 plaques, some in situ, some not. There could be more around the rock, or in storage, as there are details of up to 53 in a document attached, dated October 1977, (see Appendix I). From this list there are 43 that I have found and are on mine, another 10 I did not find (some I know have been removed from site with no details of where they are stored) and there are 4 that I found that are not on it. -

Defensive Structures
Defensive Structures Defensive Structures Bastion (Wikipedia) A bastion is a structure projecting outward from the main enclosure of a fortification, situated in both corners of a straight wall (termed curtain), with the shape of a sharp point, facilitating active defense against assaulting troops. It allows the defenders of the fort to cover adjacent bastions and curtains with defensive fire. The bastion was designed to offer a full range on which to attack oncoming troops. Previous fortifications were of little use within a certain range. The bastion solved this problem. By using cannon to cover the curtain side of the wall, the forward cannon could concentrate on oncoming targets. Types Various types of bastions have been used throughout history. Solid bastions are those that are filled up entirely, and have the ground even with the height of the rampart, without any empty space towards the center. Void or hollow bastions are those that have a rampart, or parapet, only around their flanks and faces, so that a void space is left towards the center. The ground is so low, that if the rampart is taken, no retrenchment can be made in the center, but what will lie under the fire of the besieged. A flat bastion is one built in the middle of a courtain, or enclosed court, when the court is too large to be defended by the bastions at its extremes. The term is also used of bastions built on a right line. A cut bastion is that which has a re-entering angle at the point. It was sometimes also called bastion with a tenaille. -
The Environment Matters
The Environment Matters Annual Report 2012 Department of the Environment HM Government of Gibraltar 0 Foreword The Environment has at last taken its rightful place as one of the most important strands in the policies of HM Government of Gibraltar. Any Government anywhere has a responsibility to its communities and its citizens. But environmental responsibility extends beyond its borders. Be it by reduction in carbon emissions to reduce impact on climate, or protection of migratory birds that pass through Gibraltar, action taken in Gibraltar impacts elsewhere, and so our responsibilities are all that much greater. The work of the Department of the Environment and its contractual partners has been more intense and wider ranging than ever before. In ensuring maximum involvement in the Government's green filter, in influencing the introduction of new initiatives such as green procurement, increased recycling, energy efficiency, tree planting and many more, Gibraltar, during 2012, took a quantum environmental leap into the second decade of the 21st Century, while at the same time working towards an improved quality of life for our residents. This Annual Report summarises some of the more significant aspects of this work. I want to thank all those professionals in the Ministry, Department and our contractual partners, for their continued commitment in making this possible. I hope you will enjoy learning about our work as much as I have enjoyed being involved in and supporting it. With best wishes Dr John Cortes MBE, D.Phil Minister for Health and the Environment HM GOVERNMENT OF GIBRALTAR i Executive Summary The Department of the Environment, working with the Environmental Agency, continues to strive to improve the local environment and ensure compliance with environmental legislation. -

Gibraltar Coincides with Channel Marmite at 5’S TV Show You Should Have Gone to Specsavers, Morrisons Writes Belinda Beckett

You’re off your Rock-er... If your view of Gibraltar coincides with Channel Marmite at 5’s TV show you should have gone to Specsavers, Morrisons writes Belinda Beckett N 1987, Agent 007 parachuted onto the Rock in the open- ing sequence to The Living Daylights and, after dispatching a would-be assassin, sailed off in his yacht for more exotic climes. IIn those days, Gibraltar was not the kind of place to leave James Bond shaken or stirred. Fast-forward a quarter of a century and it’s a different story: Bond could have berthed his giga-yacht in swanky Ocean Village and strolled over to the casino for one of his trademark Martinis. After decades as ‘Little Britain in the Sun’, complete with old-school Tardis police boxes and Bobbies on the beat, Gibraltar has been forging a shiny new ID that is decidedly con- tinental – no thanks to Channel 5’s similarly- titled Tuesday night show, now on its second Turn to page 20 Photography by David Cussen 2 the olive press - February 5 - February 19 2014 www.theolivepress.es www.theolivepress.es the olive press - February 5 - February 19 20143 3 ll about ll about A Gibraltar A Gibraltar From Page 19 The continuing sovereignty dispute has seen Guinness World Record traffic queues at the border and the return of virtual series, which is doing a brilliant job resurrecting the Rule Brit- siege conditions – and over the centuries the Gibraltarians tania and fish ‘n’ chips image (ED: Thank heavens most of us have survived 14 of those. -
