  • Gloucestershire County Bridge Association
    Gloucestershire County Bridge Association Minutes of the Annual General Meeting held at Cheltenham Bridge Club on Sunday 21st May 2017 at 1.30pm. The President (Jim Simons) was in the Chair and 40 other members attended 1 There was one apology for absence received 2 The minutes of the AGM held on June 5th 2016 were approved nem con with no corrections 3 President’s Report I’d like to start by expressing my thanks, and I hope yours, to all the people who have worked for the association over the year. Volunteer-run organisations don’t run without the volunteers! Starting with the officers, David Simons as secretary, Val Constable as Treasurer, Paul Denning as Chief Tournament Director, and Anne Swannell as catering officer have done most of the heavy lifting. We have recently co-opted Patrick Shields as Vice-President and he has been doing work on strategy, and we shall be hearing from him shortly. Peter Waggett has taken it upon himself to collect the money most Mondays – he says he quite likes money! As usual the Cheltenham Congress and the Green Point event in Ross-on-Wye were great successes attracting players from far afield as well as the local. We owe a great debt of gratitude to those who worked so hard to run them. For the congress, that is David Simons, Val Constable, Anne Swannell, Ro Kaye, John Skjonnemand and Paul Clarke. For the Green Point Event, it is pretty much just Alan Wearmouth, and the Herefordshire people. Looking at results outside the county, way back almost a year ago in June 2016, Wendy and Joe Angseesing and Ian and Val Constable won the Midland Counties Challenge Bowl ahead of teams from Worcestershire, Warwickshire Staffordshire and Derbyshire.

    AGM Shareholders Meeting 25th November 2020 Agenda Item 5 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE ENGLISH BRIDGE UNION 1 September 2019 - 31 August 2020 The English Bridge Union is the governing body for duplicate bridge in England, representing communities of bridge players at club, county and national level. It is funded by members for members and provides the infrastructure and development of the game in England. It is non-profit making and any and all surplus is invested in our national game. This report provides an insight in to the work that we do to support our clubs, counties and members. We would like to thank all the volunteers that make up our national team - the Directors of the Board and all the members of its committees and the dedicated team of staff led by Chief Executive, Gordon Rainsford. Volunteers are a precious commodity! The five year strategic aims document entitled “Raising our Game 2018-2023” has been overtaken by events and shelved; effort has been put into clarifying the services offered by, and the priorities of, the EBU in a world of online bridge alongside face-to-face bridge, as foundations for the development of a strategy over the next few months for the period up to 2025. The statutory annual report and accounts will be able to be viewed on our website www.ebu.co.uk shortly after the EBU’s Annual General Meeting on 25th November 2020. The Board The Board is made up of eight directors elected by the shareholders, who are the representatives of our counties, and up to two appointed by the Board, renewable annually.

  • William Hazledine, Shropshire Ironmaster and Millwright
    WILLIAM HAZLEDINE, SHROPSHIRE IRONMASTER AND MILLWRIGHT: A RECONSTRUCTION OF HIS LIFE, AND HIS CONTRIBUTION TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF ENGINEERING, 1780 - 1840 by ANDREW PATTISON A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY Ironbridge Institute Institute of Archaeology and Antiquity, College of Arts and Law, University of Birmingham October 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT The name of William Hazledine (1763 – 1840) is almost unknown, even to industrial historians. This is surprising, since he provided the ironwork for five world ‘firsts’, and he was described at the time of his death as ‘the first [foremost] practical man in Europe’. The five structures are Ditherington Flax Mill, Shrewsbury (the first iron- framed building in the world), Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (still one of the longest and highest in Britain), lock gates on the Caledonian Canal, a new genre of cast-iron arch bridges, and Menai Suspension Bridge. This thesis aims to rediscover Hazledine’s life and work, and place it in the context of social and industrial history. It particularly concentrates on the development of cast iron technology in Shropshire, which has been less studied than the work of earlier ironmasters, such as the Darbys and John Wilkinson.

"High the vanes of Shrewsbury gleam Islanded in Severn stream H . A.E. Housman -iv- PREFACE. This thesis began as an attempt to relate the topography and domestic architecture of an English town to its general history, to see, that is, how far the present street plan and surviving buildings reflected the various stages in growth from its origins to the time when, with the coming of the railway, distant influences suddenly became more powerful than the historic regional environment, Shrewsbury was chosen because it has both a wealth of old houses and extensive corporation records which it was hoped would throw light on the buildings, in particular on their dating. The examination of records of all kinds proceeded intermittently for about three years, paralleled by an exterior survey of most of the town's buildings.
