Bournemouth .With seven miles of golden sands and sparkling sea, the vibrant cosmopolitan town of Bournemouth has it all - a vast variety of shops, restaurants and holiday accommodation, buzzing nightlife and endless countryside with beautiful award winning gardens and water sports galore. Bournemouth is a large coastal resort town in the ceremonial county of Dorset, England. According to the mid-year estimates for 2010 from the Office for National Statistics the town has a population of 168,100, making it the largest settlement in Dorset. It is also the largest settlement between Southampton and Plymouth. With Poole and Christchurch, Bournemouth forms the South East Dorset conurbation, which has a total population of about 400,000.
Founded in 1810 by Lewis Tregonwell, Bournemouth's growth accelerated with the arrival of the railway, becoming a recognised town in 1870. Historically part of Hampshire, it joined Dorset with the reorganisation of local government in 1974. Since 1997 the town has been administered by a unitary authority, meaning that it has autonomy from Dorset County Council. The local authority is Bournemouth Borough Council. Bournemouth's location on the south coast of England has made it a popular destination for tourists. The town is a regional centre of business, home of the Bournemouth International Centre and financial companies that include Liverpool Victoria and PruHealth.
Although Bournemouth is on the coast, the centre of the town lies inland - the commercial and civil heart of the town being the Square. From the Square the Upper and Lower Pleasure Gardens descend to the seafront and the pier. Areas within Bournemouth include Bear Cross, Boscombe, Kinson, Pokesdown, Westbourne and Winton. Traditionally a large retirement town, Bournemouth (mostly the Northbourne, Southbourne and Tuckton areas of Bournemouth together with the Wallisdown, and Talbot Village areas of Poole) has seen massive growth in recent years, especially through the growth of students attending Bournemouth University and the large number of language schools teaching English as a foreign language.
Bournemouth is located directly to the east of the Jurassic Coast, a 95-mile ( 153 km ) section of beautiful and largely un spoilt coastline recently designated a World Heritage Site. Apart from the beauty of much of the coastline, the Jurassic Coast provides a complete geological record of the Jurassic period and a rich fossil record. Bournemouth sea front overlooks Poole Bay and the Isle of Wight. Bournemouth also has seven miles ( 11 km ) of sandy beaches that run from Hengistbury Head in the east to Sandbanks, in Poole, in the west.
Because of the coastal processes that operate in Poole Bay, the area is often used for surfing. An artificial reef was expected to be installed at Boscombe, in Bournemouth, by October 2008, using large sand-filled geotextile bags. However, this deadline was not met, and the construction was actually finished at the end of October 2009. The Boscombe Reef was constructed as part of the larger Boscombe Spa Village development. Bournemouth also has several chines ( e.g., Alum Chine ) that lead down to the beaches and form a very attractive feature of the area.
The Dorset and Hampshire region surrounding Bournemouth has been the site of human settlement for thousands of years. However, in 1800 the Bournemouth area was largely a remote and barren heathland. No one lived at the mouth of the Bourne River and the only regular visitors were a few fishermen, turf cutters and gangs of smugglers until the 16th century. During the Tudor period the area was used as a hunting estate, Stourfield Chase, but by the late 18th century only a few small parts of it were maintained, including several fields around the Bourne Stream and a cottage known as Decoy Pond House, which stood near where the Square is today.
With the exception of the estate, until 1802 most of the Bournemouth area was common land. The Christchurch Inclosures Act 1802 and the Inclosure Commissioners' Award of 1805 transferred hundreds of acres into private ownership for the first time. In 1809, the Tapps Arms public house appeared on the heath. A few years later, in 1812, the first residents, retired army officer Lewis Tregonwell and his wife, moved into their new home built on land he had purchased from Sir George Ivison Tapps. Tregonwell began developing his land for holiday letting by building a series of sea villas. In association with Tapps, he planted hundreds of pine trees, providing a sheltered walk to the beach ( later to become known as the ~ Invalids walk ). The town would ultimately grow up around its scattered pines. In 1832 when Tregonwell died, Bournemouth had grown into small community with a scattering of houses, villas and cottages.

Bangour Village Hospital still stands proud over 100 years since it's construction. Located outside of Dechmont, West Lothian it's 960 acre site was home to thousands of patients over the years. In 1902 the Edinburgh Lunancy Board purchased the 960 acre Bangour site, and by 1906 Bangour Village was offically opened by the Right Honourable Earl of Roseberry. Many additions and modifications were made to Bangour Hospital over the years but most interesting was the Wee Bangour Express constructed in 1905. Although only serving till after the first world war, Bangour's own railway did a fine job carrying construction goods and laterly transporting wounded soldiers from the war. Not to be confused with the Village hospital, Bangour General was constructed in 1939 just to the North West of the village in order to cope with wounded soldiers from the second world war. Originally built as prefabricated huts Bangour General was only meant to last 10 years, but it excelled and outlived it's expectancy and eventually closed (and now demolished) in 1990 with the construction of St John's Hospital in neighbouring Livingston. Meanwhile, back in the village things were going from strength to strength. Bangour was at the forefront of psychiatric medicine and became a teaching ground for doctors and nurses. So much so that a nurses accomodation was constructed so that the nurses could live and and breathe their work. Sadly in the 1980s, with the advent of new technology and scientific findings, the need for an entire village dedicated to psychiatric medicine became less and less. By the 1990s only a few villas (or wards) were still active. Bangour Village Hospital finally closed it's doors 100 years after it was originally concieved, with Villa 32 the last villa to close in 2000. Source: www.bangour.co.uk/

Lindeman Island is an island in the Lindeman Group of the Whitsunday Islands off the coast of Queensland, Australia. The island was named by Captain Bedwell after his sub-lieutenant, George Sidney Lindeman whilst aboard the Royal Navy vessel HMS Virago.
The island was occupied by Aboriginal tribes, known generally as the Ngaro, until circa 1900, who used the area for fishing. It is unknown if they lived on the island permanently. An incident occurred on nearby Shaw Island between the local tribe and some Europeans in late August 1861. One aboriginal was shot dead and Henry Irving, a squatter from Broadsound, and Nicholas Millar, a sailor from Rockhampton, were bludgeoned to death. The Native Police officer at the logging camp of Eugene Fitzalan on Whitsunday Island was notified.[4] A large punitive mission afterwards set out in two schooners under Lieut. Williams. They destroyed the native camp and burnt or impounded all the canoes found. The aboriginals themselves apparently escaped into the mountainous terrain. They resisted later attempts to be relocated to the mainland. In 1905 Captain James Adderton[6] took out a sheep grazing lease over the island and established facilities for shearing. In 1923 Angus Nicholson began a small lodge for visitors, although he did not build permanent accommodation until 1929. The Nicholsons had local Ngaro people working for them on the island. Goats roamed wild and visitors were requested to shoot only for food.
Before the end of WW2, Reg Ansett of Ansett Australia saw the potential of the area and began planning for air services. Starting in 1952 Barrier Reef Airways began flying boat services to a number of islands including Lindeman. Ansett opened Proserpine or Whitsunday Coast Airport in 1957 to allow transfers to smaller island aircraft. The resort was sold to P&O shipping in 1974, who then sold the resort to Club Med in 1992.

Whereas the holding cells at Warrington Road had been taken out of use and most administrative functions transferred to Old Road Police Station after 1905, the 1879-built station was retained for police accommodation purposes until the early 1950s. The electoral roll names Sergeant Herbert Forster and his wife Ada as occupiers of 2B Warrington Road in 1934-5. Born at Woolston in 1886, Herbert had joined the force c.1915 (Lancashire Archives ref. PLA 11/34). He and Ada were still there with their three children when the civilian population was surveyed in 1939. In the other half of the building, no. 2A, were Sergeant Richard Stones and family. Born in 1898, Richard had joined the force in 1919 and was promoted to sergeant in 1935 (PLA 11/34). Due to poor health he retired from the Bolton Division in November 1941, and had returned to Ashton (Downall Green Road) by the time of his death in 1960. The Stones family must have taken the place of Fred Barker (PLA 11/32), who alone occurs at 2A Warrington Road on the 1934-5 electoral roll.

John Wilding (1895-1980; PLA 11/34), police constable of “Garswood Hall Police Station” (otherwise “Garswood Hall Cottage”, on the Garswood Hall Collieries – present-day Three Sisters Country Park- site) in 1923 and 1939;

“Bobby” Heyes (untraced at Lancashire Archives unless PLA 11/3 refers), anecdotally at Rigby Street before his death in service c.1926;
Frank Goldsmith (c.1906-1929; so far untraced at Lancashire Archives), police constable stationed at Ashton when killed in a road traffic accident whilst on duty at Winwick on 25 September 1929;
Richard McVit(t)y (PLA 11/38), police constable stationed at Ashton when seriously injured in the accident at Winwick on 25 September 1929 which killed his colleague PC Frank Goldsmith;
Edmund Maltby (1903-1962, so far untraced at Lancashire Archives), PC of 53 Osborne Road in 1926-7 and 1939;

John Lomas (b. 1915, PLA 11/40), PC at 4 Townfields Avenue in 1939;
Thomas Herbert Wylie Griffiths (1894-1986, PLA 11/34 and 35), sergeant at Old Road in 1939 having previously been a PC at Shotton, Flintshire;
William Henry Parkinson (1899-1974, untraced at Lancashire Archives unless PLA 11/69 refers), PC at Old Road in 1939 having previously been at Fleet Lane, Parr;
Walter Morgan (1889-1971, PLA 11/34), inspector at Old Road in 1939 having joined the force in 1914 and been promoted to sergeant in 1930 and inspector in 1934, retired (to Preston) from Wigan Division on 1 March 1946;
Samuel Hudson (1916-1987, so far untraced at Lancashire Archives), a PC occurring in different registers both at 23 Crescent Avenue and at Old Road in 1939;
Harry Ellison (1914-1994, so far untraced at Lancashire Archives), a PC occurring in different registers both at 23 Crescent Avenue and at Old Road in 1939;
John A Decker (b.1912, so far untraced at Lancashire Archives), a PC at 27 Crescent Avenue (lodging with retired Lancashire Constabulary officer Henry Wragg and his wife) in 1939;
Richard Dixon (b. 1905, so far untraced at Lancashire Archives), at Old Road in 1939, later (in 1949-50) at Ormskirk Road Police Station, Liverpool;
Thomas Russell (d. 1961, PLA 11/41), at Old Road in 1939; and
