This is Saint Alban's Church on Deansway in Worcester. It may have it's origins in Roman times, but there may have been a church on this site since c.720. The present building is at least early Norman (c.1175). Some of the stone work might be Anglo-Saxon.
It was heavily restored in the 19th and 20th centuries.
It is named after the first British Martyr, who was a soldier in the Roman Army. He converted to Christianity by a fugitive priest who gave him shelter. They switched identies so that he could be martyred in the priests place.
His tomb was liked so much, that a church was built on the site, and around it the town of St Albans.
These days the church is no longer a church but a day centre called Magg's Day Centre. It is a Grade II listed building and is a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
Parish church, now day centre. C12 with later additions and alterations including restorations and alterations of c1821-1850. Coursed red and green sandstone with double pitch slate and plain tile roof. Small church with continuous 3-bay nave and single-bay chancel with north aisle. Norman, Early English and neo-Norman. Chamfered plinth. Entrance to north side a round-arched doorway with 1 order of columns with cushion capitals and roll-moulding to head in chamfered reveals, all renewed; plank door. 2 round-arched windows with 1 order of slender columns and roll-moulding to head, renewed, with blocked narrow opening between and large intel. East end has 3 stepped lancets to chancel with oculus over and lancet to aisle. West end has 2 renewed trefoil-headed lancets and continuous hoodmould; small rose window over. West gable bell cote.

Bangkok's most unmissable attraction is of course the Grand Palace, and most specifically the temple complex of Wat Phra Kaew (Temple of the Emerald Buddha), famed for it's riot of coloured and gilded ornament, paintings and sculptures; quite simply, so visually stunning there is nothing quite like it anywhere else!
The Palace and Temple complex were begun in 1782, the year the capital was moved to Bangkok, and parts of the palace buildings betray 18th century European influence combined with traditional Thai style, such as the breathtaking gilt spires on the roof. Most of the interiors of the Palace itself are off limits to visitors since, although no longer the main residence of the Thai monarchy, it is frequently used for state functions and ceremonies.
The Wat Phra Kaew complex however is the greatest draw, famed for it's stunning architecture and the famous 'Yaksha' guardian figures that flank all the main entrances to the complex. These towering figures, with their rich colours and tapering crowns, represent demonic characters from the mythological epic the 'Ramakien', and are identifiable as distinct individuals, all here serving a benign, protective role.
The Ramakien is also the subject for a stunning sequence of wall paintings within the cloister that encirlces the entire site, illustrating in minute detail the battles of the heroic monkey warriors, led by the monkey god Hanuman, against the demonic armies and kingdoms of Tosakan.
The Temple of the Emerald Buddha itself forms the largest structure and contains the venerated (though small) Buddha image. The complex contains several other iconic buildings clad in sumptuous decor, most notably the library or 'mondop' with it's gilt spire along with the great golden stupa.
The temple complex is technically a royal chapel rather than a working monastery like most Thai temples as it has no resident monks (the sheer volume of visitors leaves little room for anyone else anyway!).
We made two visits here on separate days; our first was with a group and far too rushed, we missed elements we'd wanted to see and the light was poor for photography, so we returned 2 days later with as much time and sunlight as we could want, which was well worth the effort!

Butter-poached lobster tail with a carrot-ginger puree, coconut soup, tarragon juice, pink grapefruit with basil chiffonade and brown butter powder.
Notes: This plate was like a painter's palatte - reminding me of the beet dish that I had at schwa in chicago.
The lobster tail had been perfectly poached in butter to a silken tenderness. I loved almost every element on the plate - not the least of which was the graperfuit, which was slightly warm and therefore tooko on a similar texture to the lobster tail - cloaking itself in the lobster.
Each element on the dish was POPPINGLY flavorful. Personal preferences in taste aside, everything on this plate was great. The carrot-ginger puree was distinctly both. The tarragon juice was very anise fresh-and-grassy. The coconut soup, as well, was very creamy and coconutty (this was one flavor combo I didn't really appreciate). The brown butter powder, which reminded me of the brown butter powder on the skate course at my second dinner at alinea, had barely any taste of butter, even less of browned butter. Rather, it tasted like powdered milk.
Perhaps the most unassuming, but most appreciated element on this dish (besides the lobster) was the little square of purple Peruvian potato that added the only texturally "meaty" element on the plate - a welcomed and wonderful thing.
Overall, this course was very strong - most in composition and presentation. I found the number of different sauces a bit distracting - especially for such a small piece of lobster. But, it was well-executed and each element carefully and wonderfully prepared.

Course 9: the "Vintage Carrot" course.
As noted earlier, an "old" mealy carrot is given new life and level of deliciousness in this course. Not only is it cooked slowly in goat's milk butter with stems and shiso, lovingly coaxed into its rich, dense and leathery new self, but it's draped with large slices of truffles (from Sweden's east coast, I believe Gottard) and finished with a truffle sauce. The Cinderella-like transformation was really quite spectacular where sweet and concentrated flavours met a sticky caramelized crust, in this excellent specimen of meaty chew (without being meat!).
Aside:
I felt very fortunate to have had the privilege of being served this dish, more for the fact that so much time and care was taken to prepare and cook it, just so that we could partake in the experience. To the cook responsible: thank you.

This guy hangs out and watches the Golf Center in Palm Desert and can be seen almost every single day hunting in the wash along holes one to four.
A filet of John Dory sits on top a bed of cook diced potatoes and creamed leeks. The fish is topped with a tomato compote and sauced with a truffle vinaigrette. A milky green Bibb lettuce sauce is poured table-side.
Notes: Yikes, was my first thought. This looks and smells like cod. Not that cod is bad - but it's not John Dory. The filet was *perfectly* cooked, as a piece of cod - meaty with a little bit of bounce.
The flavors were wonderful - I especially liked the truffle vinaigrette, which reminded me of the truffle vinaigrette I had in a <a href="Butter-poached lobster tail with a carrot-ginger puree, coconut soup, tarragon juice, pink grapefruit with basil chiffonade and brown butter powder.
The pototoes and creamed leeks were great - both in flavor and texture - I just wished that the creamed leeks had been a bit less gooked up with the cream sauce - a little cleaner - slightly dressed.
The tomato "confit" on top was one of my favorite aspects - tangy, meaty, and very flavorful - full of natural umami. Were those oven-dried or sun-dried?
The Bibb lettuce sauce was sadly not very distinct in flavor. I was hoping a good shot of lettuce flavor. Instead, it was just a creamy sauce was more noticed for its unctuous texture than its flavor. I think the problem is that Bibb lettuce is such a light tasting lettuce as it is, that any "Bibbness" of the sauce became masked by the other bold flavors in this dish.
Overall, this dish was very strong, with the exception of the confusion over the fish. I personally love light flaky fish - which is why I was looking forward to Dory. Getting something that looked, smelled and tasted like cod was a not necessarily deflating, but not what I had been anticipating. Also, the over-creamy leeks aside, I just wished there had been a bit more Bibbness to the sauce.
St Margaret took some finding. Despite it being clearly marked from the centre of the village, the lane takes the visitor past a meditation centre then beside a golf course. All with no sign of the church.
On first attempt, I turned the car round and went back, but no sign of the church could be seen.
I gave up, but hoped a warden at Tottiscliffe could help.
And indeed she did.
Upon turning into the lane, there is a wall on your left, and on the wall is a small sign pointing to the church along a long and narrow grassy lane.
I drove up the 400 yards to the lych gate, parked and found the church open, and a family of cyclists also enjoying it.
The church features many brasses and memorials to investigate and record. Also a good feature.
-------------------------------------------
The church was built on a narrow promontory a long way from the centre of its village and is entered through a porch with pretty bargeboards. The Norman aisleless nave was extended to the west when the present tower was built in the fifteenth century, and the former outside corner of the Norman building may be clearly seen. The Victorians heavily restored the interior but the south chapel still contains much of interest, notably the Watton memorial of 1653 which blocks the former east window, the outline of which may be seen outside. This chapel also has a good contemporary painted ceiling.

--------------------------------------------
ADDINGTON.
NORTHWARD from Ofham lies Addington, written in Domesday and antient charters, Eddingtune, signifying, as I imagine, the town or territory of Adda, or Edda, its antient Saxon owner; tun in Saxon being a town or territory inclosed with a hedge or fence.
THE PARISH of Addington is not unpleasantly situated, for the greatest part on high ground, adjoining to the northern side of the Maidstone road, at the twenty-seventh mile stone, at a small distance from which is the small rivulet which rises at Nepecker, in Wrotham, and flowing through this parish is here called Addington brook, whence the new-built house near it takes its name of St. Vincent's, alias Addington brook, built some years ago by admiral William Parry, who resided in it till his death in 1779, he left by Lucy his wife, daughter of Charles Brown, esq. commissioner of the navy at Chatham, an only daughter, who carried it in marriage to captain William Locker, the present lieutenant-governor of Greenwich hospital. It was lately inhabited by Mr. William Hunter, but is now unoccupied.
Hence the ground rises, and at a small distance above it is the mansion and garden of Addington place, pleasantly situated on the side of the hill, having a lawn and avenue down to the road, from which it is a conspicuous object, behind it still higher stands the church and village, built round Addington green, over which the road leads from Trottesclive, to which and Wrotham this parish joins towards the west. The soil is a sand covering the quarry rock, but the land is most of it but poor and unfertile, especially towards the north and west parts of it, where the sand is deepest; in the latter is a small green called Addington common.
Here is an eelbourn, or nailbourn, as they are commonly called, the stream of which breaks out with great impetuosity once in seven or eight years, which then directs its waters along a trench, dug for this purpose, till it flows into the Leyborne rivulet, the trout of which it makes of a red colour, which otherwise are white.
These nailbourns, or eruptions of water, are very common in the eastern part of Kent, where the reason of their breaking forth will be particularly mentioned.
In a place here, called the Warren, about five hundred paces north-eastward from the church, on a little eminence, there are the remains of several large stones, placed in an oval form; seventeen of them may be easily traced, though from the distances between the stones, which are nearly equal, there must have been at least twenty to complete the oval, which consisted of only one row of stones. The sandiness of the soil has covered many of them, which can, only by guessing their distances, be found by thrusting of a stick into the ground. Such of the stones as have fallen down, have been carried away by the inhabitants for different uses. The stones are of the same kind as those of Stonehenge, and being placed in the same form, seem as if they were intended for the same use. (fn. 1)
About one hundred and thirty paces to the northwest of the above is another heap of large stones, tum- bled inwards one upon another. They originally consisted of six in number, and in circuit measure thirty-three paces.
SOON AFTER the conquest, this place was become part of the possessions of Odo, bishop of Baieux and earl of Kent, the Conqueror's half-brother, under the general title of whose lands it is thus entered in the survey of Domesday, taken about the year 1080.
Ralf (son of Turald) holds Eddintune of the bishop (of Baieux) for half a suling. The arable land is one carucate, and there is . . . with four borderers, and two servants, and there is one mill of twenty-three shillings. The whole manor was valued at four pounds. In the time of king Edward the Confessor, it was worth but little. Lestan held it of king Edward, and after his death turned himself over to Alnod Cilt, and now it is in dispute.
And a little further thus:
Ralf, son of Turald, holds Eddintune of the bishop (of Baieux). It was taxed at two sulings and an half. The arable land is five carucates, in demesne there are two, and six villeins, with nine borderers, having one carucate. There is a church and ten servants, and two mills of eleven shillings and two-pence, and twelve acres of meadow, wood for the pannage of ten hogs. In the time of king Edward the Confessor it was worth eight pounds, when he received it one hundred shillings, now six pounds. Agelred held it of king Edward.
These were plainly, by the descriptions, two separate estates, and both certainly, by their names, in this parish, and held by the same person. On the disgrace of the bishop of Baieux, about four years afterwards, they became, among the rest of his possessions, confiscated to the crown. Soon after which they seem to have been held as one manor, by William de Gurnay, and afterwards by Galiena de Gurnay, his grandchild; they were succeeded in the possession of this place by the family of Mandeville, or De Magna Villa, as the name was written in Latin, who held it of the family of Montchensie, as capital lords of the fee.
But this family was extinct here in the next reign of king Edward II. for Roger del Escheker was owner of it in the 7th year of it, (fn. 2) who assumed his name from his hereditary office of usher of the exchequer, whence he was called del Eschequer, de la Chekere, and de Scaccario. (fn. 3) John de la Chekere possessed it in the first year of king Edward III. in which he was succeeded by Nicholas de Daggeworth, (fn. 4) whose ancestor, John de Daggeworth, had married Maud, one of the sisters and coheirs of Simon del Exchequer. At the accession of king Richard II. he was made of his privy council, and afterwards steward of his houshold, keeper of the great seal, and treasurer of England. (fn. 5) He bore for his arms, Sable, a lion rampant, argent, crowned or, with proper difference.
In the 20th year of king Edward III. he paid aid for this manor, which Robert de Scaccario before held in Addington, of Warine de Montchensie, as of his manor of Swanscombe. He alienated it, before the end of that reign, to Sir Hugh de Segrave, knight batchelor, and he conveyed it to Richard Charles, who died in the 2d year of king Richard II. anno 1378, and lies buried in this church, leaving his brother's sons, Richard and John, his next heirs.
Richard Charles, the eldest brother, possessed this manor, whose son, Robert Charles, dying without manor, whose son, Robert Charles, dying without issue, his two sisters became his coheirs, Alice, married to William Snayth, and Joane to Richard Orme- skirke; and upon the division of their inheritance, this manor fell to the share of William Snayth, commonly called Snette, sheriff in the 9th year of king Henry IV. who kept his shrievalty at his manor-house of Addington, bearing for his arms, Argent, a chevron between three birds heads erased, sable; two years after which he died, and was buried, with Alice his wife, in this church. He left an only daughter and heir Alice, who carried this manor, with the rest of his estates, in marriage to Robert Watton, who thenceforward resided at Addington. He was descended from ancestors, who held lands in the parish of Ridley in the 20th year of king Edward III. and bore for his arms, Argent, a lion rampant, gules, debruised with a bend, sable, charged with three cross-croslets fitchee, argent. He died possessed of the manor, and patronage of the church of Addington in the year 1444, anno 23 king Henry VI. and was buried in this church.
His descendant, Thomas Watton, esq. of Addington, procured his lands in this county to be disgavelled by the act of 2d and 3d of king Edward VI. and in his descendants, residents at this place, who on their deaths were all buried in this church, (fn. 6) and his manor, with the patronage of this church, continued down to Edmund Watton, esq. of Addington, who left an only daughter and heir Elizabeth, who marrying Leonard Bartholomew, second son of Leonard Bartholomew, esq. of Oxenhoath, entitled him to this estate. He had by her two sons; Edmund, who died unmarried; and Leonard, who will be mentioned hereafter. On his death she again became possessed of this estate, which she carried in marriage to her second husband, Sir Roger Twisden, bart. of Bradbourn, whom she likewise survived, and dying in 1775, was succeeded in it by her only surviving son by her first husband, Leonard Bartholomew, esq. who resides at Addington-place, where he served the office of sheriff in 1790, bearing for his arms, Or, three goats erased sable. He married the daughter of Mr. Wildash, of Chatham, widow of Mr. Thornton, of East-Malling, by whom he has an only daughter, married in 1797 to the hon. captain John Wingfield, brother to the lord viscount Powerscourt, of the kingdom of Ireland.
There is a court leet and court baron held for this manor, which is held of the manor of Swanscombe by castle-guard to the castle of Rochester.
CHARITIES.
A PERSON UNKNOWN gave to the use of the poor the annual sum of 15s. arising from land vested in Leonard Bartholomew, esq. and now of that annual product.
ADDINGTON is within the ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION of the diocese of Rochester and deanry of Malling.
The church has a handsome tower steeple at the west end. It is dedicated to St. Margaret. The present building was erected in 1403, as appears by the following inscription on the wall of it:
In fourteen hundred and none,
Here was neither stick nor stone;
In fourteen hundred and three,
The goodly building which you see.
The church of Addington has always been an appendage to the manor, and as such this rectory is now in the patronage of Leonard Bartholomew, esq.
It is endowed with all tithes whatsoever.
It is valued in the king's books at 6l. 6s. 8d. and the yearly tenths at 12s. 8d.
William de Gurnay gave to the church and priory of St. Andrew, in Rochester, in pure and perpetual alms, certain tithes of the demesnes of his parish of Edintune; but they lying so dispersed, that they could not be conveniently gathered by the monks, though they could be easily collected by the parson of this church: therefore it was agreed, that the parson of it should pay the yearly sum of five shillings to the monks of Rochester, on St. Andrew's day, for them. (fn. 7)
This pension, after the dissolution of the priory in the 31st year of king Henry VIII. was surrendered into the king's hands, who granted it two years afterwards by his dotation charter, to his new-erected dean and chapter of Rochester, to which it continues to be paid at this time.
¶It appears by the endowment of the vicarage of Hadlow, in this county, in 1287, that the rector of that parish had been used, beyond memory, to pay yearly the sum of eighteen-pence to the rector of this church, which payment the vicar of Hadlow was enjoined to pay in future. (fn. 8)
This is a photograph from the BHAA K-Club 10KM Road Race and Fun Run 2014 was held at the K-Club Golf and Hotel Resort, Straffan, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Saturday 12th of April 2013 at 11:00. The race, an annual event, has become famous for it's very fast and flat course which starts and finishes within the grounds of the K-Club. While the weather was dry there was a tough breeze in places which made running conditions a little harder than expected. The road race has gained fame through it's PB potential but the spread of refreshments and catering afterwards are now legendary and are of the highest standard imaginable. Race director Gerry Byrne and a very large team of volunteers, K-Club staff, and local Gardai must be given the highest of compliments for the staging of the event. Well done everyone.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
