Short History
The early history of the Church is lost in the mists of time. Its early architecture is undoubtedly Norman with its massive round pillars , its semicircular arches with their simple decorative carving and its long low roof which was to be raised in later times. But there are traces of a much older structure in the irregular courses of undressed stone which form the lower part of the north wall. There may well have been an older church in this spot, destroyed by the invading Danes or pulled down by the Normans as being unworthy in their eyes to serve as the house of god. Other historians have suggested that the Normans used builders who had learned their trade from the Saxons and the Normans employed them to build the less decorative parts of the structure , hence the mixture of Saxon and Norman styles that can be seen throughout the country.
However there certainly was a Church here by the beginning of the 12th century a humble affair with its low roof and its Altar standing in its sanctuary very much smaller than the present one. The "Tub Font" large enough to Baptise babies by immersion as was the custom stood then as now near the entrance of the Church. Brought back after hundreds of years of exile from the churchyard outside to which it had been banished in1727 (at about time of the introduction of "Box Pews") by the ill judged enthusiasm of early reformers. The bowl was re-lined with Lead, the stand brought out from under the floor and restored to its rightful place in 1896.
Meanwhile in the 15th century the Church had been considerably enlarged and improved. The roof was raised, the hitherto solid side -walls were pierced by good, wide windows and adorned with battlements, a tower built and a bell hung, this latter addition also probably dating from pre-reformation times. In 1603 the Churchwardens were ordered to erect a Pulpit. This was the usual three Decker type, the Clerk below, the reading desk on the deck and the Pulpit itself on top. Later the bottom section was removed to make a single deck. The present Pulpit is dated 1727.
In the 18th century, probably about 1727, tribute was paid to the prevailing fashion of the times by the construction of box pews in the body of the Church, whilst a gallery was erected over the west door to accommodate those for whom no room could now be found on the floor.
In July 1889 Archdeacon Blakeney inspected the church and described it as being in a "deplorable condition" and said a new church should be built on the same site or on a spot nearer the centre of the ever spreading parish. The people decided the present site was the best and that enlargement and restoration of the existing Church was the most economical solution.
The enlargement was completed in the Spring of 1897 when, on Tuesday, May 11th the new Church was dedicated by the Archbishop of York. However, the work was not finished even then. The people had to wait until 1933 for the construction of the Chancel and the Vestries.
The first Service in the enlarged Church in 1897 was accompanied by an American Organ, lent by a local gentleman. A second-hand organ was then used. A new organ was not installed until 1911 costing £400. In 1936 an electric blower replaced the hand bellows and this is still in use today. The organ was rebuilt and enlarged in 1954 at a cost of £1,268

Wheeling WV - 821 Main Street, John List House. 3rd floor. This is the stained glass window seen from the 2nd floor. Is lighted with both light bulbs and sky light.
Ice factory. 1900-1 with extension factory of 1907-8 and later alterations. By WF Cott, consulting engineer, for the Great Grimsby Ice Company Limited. Red brick with blue brick and ashlar dressings. Slate and glazed roofs; copper domes on north unit. Chamfered blue brick plinth. Approximately rectangular on plan, comprising 2 linked factories separated by a passage (formerly carrying a railway), cutting across at an angle.... HISTORY: built following the amalgamation of the Grimsby Ice Company with the Co-operative Ice Company. The factory supplied ice for fish packing. The overhead gantries on the Gorton Street front carried ice into the dockside fish-landing building opposite. Ceased production 1990. The Grimsby Ice Company was one of Grimsby's leading fishing companies, and also built the Fisherlads' Home, for fishing apprentices, in Convamore Road (qv). This ice factory illustrates Grimsby's importance as the world's foremost fishing centre in the earlier C20. This building is understood to be the earliest remaining ice factory in the UK. Furthermore it is believed to be the sole survivor, complete with its machinery, from this period. EH Listing

Going on holiday, even for a few days, means having to do a series of things upon returning home. Grocery shopping, doing laundry, and editing photos from the trip are all things that require a lot of attention in the same short period of time between arriving home and going back to work.
I was in the doghouse today because I spent it largely sitting in front of the computer editing. Fortunately, I was able to buy myself out of it a bit by printing photos for the wife as she has been trying to wrap up her 2011 scrapbook of places we visited. She's not crazy into scrapbooking and really doesn't even enjoy it but we both agree that it serves as a good reminder for things we might otherwise forget. It's sort of just one more thing to do when returning home much like the laundry mentioned earlier.

Listed Building Grade II
List Entry Number : 1086837
Date First Listed : 5 March 1990
Dating from 1840, the monument is in the churchyard of St Cuthbert's Church, and commemorates Rev. John Stonard and members of his family. It is in stone and consists of a tall hexagonal plinth with slate sides surmounted by a cap and an urn. The pedestal has carved inscriptions and family names, and it is surrounded by a square wall.
The town hall in Eisenstadt, the capital of the Austrian province of Burgenland, is located in the Main road no. 35. The building, dating back to the 17th century, is a listed one.
Architecture
The 27-meter-long street front of the two-storey building has mock-ashlar plaster up to the windows of the upper floor. The façade obtains its rhythmic structure through three bay windows and a large entrance portal framed by diamond ashlar plaster. The two outer round oriels rest on columns, the middle, box-shaped on three consoles. The central bay is adorned with a sundial and the coat of arms of Eisenstadt.
The areas between the windows of the upper floor are filled with pictorial representations. They depict symbolically, from the left to the middle bay, the virtues of loyalty, hope, charity, justice, wisdom, strength and moderation as female figures with the Latin inscription. To the right of the middle bay are scenes from the Old Testament for Judicial Wisdom (Solomon's Judgment), Homeland Love (Judith and Holofernes) and the renunciation of dignity in favor of wisdom and knowledge (Salomon and the Queen of Sheba).
The building is completed by a broad attic behind which a three-part grave roof hides. Protruding gable parts are concealed by curved ornamental gables.
History
The town hall was built around 1650, after Eisenstadt 1648 had become Royal free city. Some Renaissance parts, such as the ceiling in the entrance hall, date from this period. The present appearance dates from the rebuilding around 1760.
The murals, also from the Renaissance, were repainted in 1949 by Rudolf Holzinger (1898-1949) according to the old patterns. The interior of the house was rebuilt several times, most recently in 1959. On the occasion of the construction of the appropriate modern city hall building behind the historic one in the years 1999 to 2001, the latter was extensively renovated.
Das Rathaus in Eisenstadt, der Hauptstadt des österreichischen Bundeslandes Burgenland, befindet sich in der Hauptstraße Nr. 35. Das auf das 17. Jahrhundert zurückgehende Bauwerk steht unter Denkmalschutz.
Architektur
Die 27 Meter lange Straßenfront des zweigeschoßigen Gebäudes besitzt bis an die Fenster des Obergeschoßes Quaderputz. Die Fassade erhält ihre rhythmische Gliederung durch drei Erker und ein großes Eingangsportal, das von Diamantquaderputz eingefasst ist. Die beiden äußeren Runderker ruhen auf Säulen, der mittlere, kastenförmige auf drei Konsolen. Den Mittelerker zieren eine Sonnenuhr und das Stadtwappen von Eisenstadt.
Die Flächen zwischen den Fenstern des Obergeschoßes sind mit bildlichen Darstellungen gefüllt. Sie zeigen vom linken bis zum Mittelerker symbolisch die Tugenden Treue, Hoffnung, Mildtätigkeit, Gerechtigkeit, Weisheit, Stärke und Mäßigkeit als Frauengestalten, mit der lateinischen Beschriftung. Rechts des Mittelerkers folgen Szenen aus dem Alten Testament für die richterliche Weisheit (Salomonisches Urteil), die Heimatliebe (Judith und Holofernes) sowie den Verzicht auf Würde zugunsten der Weisheit und Erkenntnis (Salomon und die Königin von Saba).
Das Bauwerk wird abgeschlossen durch eine breite Attika, hinter der sich ein dreiteiliges Grabendach verbirgt. Überstehende Giebelteile werden durch geschwungene Ziergiebel kaschiert.
Geschichte
Das Rathaus entstand um 1650, nachdem Eisenstadt 1648 königliche Freistadt geworden war. Einige Renaissanceteile, wie die Decke in der Eingangshalle, stammen aus dieser Zeit. Das heutige Erscheinungsbild rührt von dem Umbau um 1760 her.
Die ebenfalls aus der Renaissance stammenden Wandmalereien wurden 1949 von Rudolf Holzinger (1898–1949) nach den alten Mustern neu gemalt. Das Innere des Hauses wurde mehrfach umgebaut, zuletzt 1959. Anlässlich der Errichtung des zweckgerechten modernen Rathaus-Neubaus hinter dem historischen in den Jahren 1999 bis 2001 wurde letzterer umfassend saniert.

Painshill (also referred to as "Pains Hill" in some 19th-century texts[1]), near Cobham, Surrey, England, is one of the finest remaining examples of an 18th-century English landscape park. It was designed and created between 1738 and 1773 by Charles Hamilton. The original house built in the park by Hamilton has since been demolished.
Painshill is owned by Elmbridge Borough Council and managed by the Painshill Trust. Painshill, which is open to the public (with entry charge), is Grade I listed on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.[2] In 1998 Painshill was awarded the Europa Nostra Medal for the "Exemplary restoration from a state of extreme neglect, of a most important 18th-century landscape park and its extraordinary buildings."[3][4] In May 2006, Painshill was awarded full collection status for its John Bartram Heritage Collection, by the National Council for the Conservation of Plants and Gardens (NCCPG).[5]
History
Charles Hamilton was born in 1704 in Dublin, the 9th son and 14th child of James Hamilton, 6th Earl of Abercorn. He was educated at Westminster School and Oxford, and went on two Grand Tours, one in 1725 and a further one in 1732.
In 1738 Hamilton began to acquire land at Painshill and, over the years, built up a holding of more than 200 acres (81 ha). His creation was among the earliest to reflect the changing fashion in garden design prompted by the Landscape Movement, which started in England in about 1730. Hamilton used what today are called organic gardening and organic lawn management techniques.[6] It represented the move away from geometric formality in garden design to a new naturalistic formula. Many of the trees and shrubs planted by Hamilton were sent to him from Philadelphia by the naturalist John Bartram. The garden was open to respectable visitors, who were shown round by the head gardener for a tip, and was visited by many well-known figures including two visits by William Gilpin, pioneer of the Picturesque, Thomas Jefferson with John Adams, and Prince Franz of Anhalt-Dessau separately, on special tours of gardens,[7] and the important landscape garden author Thomas Whately. Then as now, there was a particular route round the park recommended, designed to bring the visitor upon the successive views with best effect. Views from Painshill were painted on some pieces of the Frog Service commissioned by Catherine the Great of Russia from Wedgwood.[8]
Hamilton eventually ran out of money and sold the estate in 1773 to Benjamin Bond Hopkins,[9] who held the estate until his death in 1794.[10] In 1778 Hopkins commissioned architect Richard Jupp to rebuild Painshill House in a different place within the park. The house was later extended in the 19th century by architect Decimus Burton and is now a grade II* listed building.[11]
Henry Luttrell, 2nd Earl of Carhampton (7 August 1743 – 25 April 1821) bought Painshill in 1807 from William Moffat. Luttrell lived at Painshill having fled from the ancestral Luttrellstown Castle near Clonsilla outside Dublin, where his role in crushing the Irish Rebellion in 1798 made it unsafe to stay. (His ancestor Colonel Henry Luttrell had been assassinated in Dublin in 1717 for betraying the Irish to King William III of England.) After his death in 1821, Luttrell's wife Jane lived at Painshill until her death in 1831 when it was sold it to Sir William Cooper, High sheriff of Surrey.
Sir William Cooper and his wife, later his widow, lived there until 1863, and installed Joseph Bramah's suspension bridge and water wheel, and planted an arboretum designed by John Claudius Loudon. In 1873, the English poet, literary and social critic, Matthew Arnold, rented Pains Hill Cottage from Mr. Charles J. Leaf and lived there until his death in 1888.[12] In 1904 Charles Combe of Cobham Park purchased and lived in Painshill Park, his son having moved into Cobham Park.
Until World War II Painshill Park was held by a succession of private owners. In 1948 the estate was split up and sold in separate lots for commercial uses. The Park's features fell into decay.
By 1980 the local authority, Elmbridge Borough Council, had bought 158 acres (64 ha) of Hamilton's original estate and the work of restoring the landscape garden and its many features could start. In the following year, the Painshill Park Trust was founded as a registered charity with the remit "to restore Painshill as nearly as possible to Charles Hamilton's Original Concept of a Landscaped Garden for the benefit of the public."[13] There is a wealth of 18th-century images of the main features of Painshill to help the process.
The restoration of this Grade I continued, in 2013 work was completed on the restoration of the Crystal Grotto, further restoration work in the park is dependent on the availability of funding. The park now borders the A3 road, which allows easy access....Wikipedia
