according to the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland the Obelisk was erected to commemorate the Union of Parliaments in 1707.
That there is one classy hot rod! It's cool that someone would take the effort to keep that vehicle in running condition. Instead of having footage of it in those old black-and-white reels, you get the chance to see how it performs in full color.

Have just found your site when researching the history of a member of the Torrington Players in Devon who has just passed away. Berenice Kendall enlisted in the ATS in 1940 and was a member of the group 'Stars in Battledress'. In 1945 she joined the Garrison Theatre at Donnington where she acted in revues and was a member of the Bluebell Troupe of dancers. Thgought you might like to know. Chedwin1898@aol.com
The walk from Newark Castle along the water front to Parklea Playing fields and Bowling green is worthwhile, before reaching the King George playing fields there is also a Picnic area,which needs a bit of TLC,but still nice , there is a lot of good work going on , could be used more a bus stop closer to the parks would be handy.
The mill at st bernard's was a shoddy mill there was two row's of house's and a shop,my farther worked for Roland humphry at room's farm i lived in the house on the bend we lived there from 1951 until the farm was sold along with the hous'e the old tin chaple which i believe was a listed building as had to be knocked down after a fire.
The photograph is NOT of the New Passage Hotel. It's an old farm house hence the outbuildings. The hotel was pulled down in the 1970s. See http://www.flickr.com/photos/b... and the others in the set
"I can assure you that my father had never heard of the Beatles," Sarid said this week. "The promoter of course didn't come to the government and say, 'I don't like this other guy and I don't want him to get the money.' He said it is a lousy group and will corrupt the spirit of the wonderful, brilliant, pure Israel youngsters. He exploited their ignorance."
Nice Pics. Can you say where the name came from St Helena in connection with this area? I'm researching 'Barry' and the hamlets on Buddon such as Cowbyres and the Cop of Cowbyres. Any insight would be appreciated. Brian.
I am the archivist for the Philips family of Heath House, Upper Tean, Staffs. Margaret Christabel Philips married Augustus East Manley and lived at Manley Hall. There is a watercolour of Margaret Christabel as a child and an oil painting of her as a young woman in the collection at Heath House. She died at Browns Hotel, Albemarle Street, London in 1908 on the eve of her departure to Paris. Her daughterLouisa was accompanying her on the trip. Her body was brought back to Weeford to be buried in the family grave. Does anyone have any photographs of the Manley family at Manley Hall or any others of the Hall? I have two photographs of the Hall - one from the front and one from the back. There are some photographs of the demolition of the Hall in the 1960's at the Staffordshire Record Office.

Well now, that's quite psychedelic. Kudos to the owner and artist of that ride! It seems to be hand-painted, and I bet it would look good during the night, surrounded by lights.
The art materials used might also change based on whether the mural is interior or exterior. Certain colors are more lightfast and are more appropriate for outdoor work where there is a lot of exposure to light. Some colors are known to fade rapidly and may only be suitable for indoor applications.
What a lovely collection of photographs of the village I lived in with my family until I was 11 years old, this was over 25 years ago now. The old corrigated barn was actually what we called the stack barn, it was our straw storage for our livestock on Murray field farm. Myself and my two sisters used to spend hours playing there, making dens and rope swings over the straw bales, and when our older cousins visited they used to play tin can alley off of the bales, happy times. Thankyou for sharing these pictures. Tracy Gurney
I went to Hudson school in the late sixties then to Deyes lane. I lived at 124 Grosvenor Road. The pictures brought back mamy memeories. Still a big Everton fan to this day.
These windows are dazzling! The boarders are a very minimal add-on, yet they made these windows look even more gorgeous. I can imagine the artistic effort that was exerted in carving these wooden boarders. They're such a lovely piece of art to have in your home.
