The Boxdorf Windmill is a former windmill built in 1849 in Boxdorf, a district of Moritzburg.

Until 1652, the Boxdorfer and the Reichenberger farmers had to grind their grain in the Plauenschen soil and in the (somewhat closer) Ockrilla Lease Mill. With the Saxon Constitution of 1831, the grinding force fell away.

The first mill at this site, a wooden pint mill, was built in 1839 by the miller Münch from Zuendorf on the Boxdorf Galgenberg (also: Gallberg). The grinding mill was able to grind eight to ten talents of flour daily. In 1847, the mill was sold to Müller Friedrich Wilhelm Seeländer from Weferlingen near Magdeburg. The mill burned down in a thunderstorm in 1849 in full operation.

Friedrich Wilhelm sold the remains to his brother Heinrich Christoph Seeländer and ran the Loschwitz watermill himself. Heinrich Christoph rebuilt the mill in 1849 as a stone, defensive-tower-like Dutch mill. This is testified by a sandstone with an engraved year above the original entrance door. Six years later Friedrich Wilhelm returned to Boxdorf in 1855 and took over the mill again from his brother. Around 1860 the house belonging to the mill was probably destroyed by arson. The existing residential building was then built.

In the German War of 1866, the Saxon Army, allied with Austria, gathered near Dresden and occupied the mill. The miller was no longer allowed to grind grain as a pressing.

Friedrich Wilhelm Seeländer died in 1877 as a result of a war suffering. Since his descendants had other professions or were too young, the mill came into foreign hands. Friedrich Hermann Müller bought the mill with three meals and a bakery for 11,100 marks. A lightning strike on 27 June 1887 did not result in a fire. Nevertheless, the roof, wings and wave were destroyed. Since in the meantime more efficient working machinery companies had taken over the business, a repair was no longer worthwhile. The mill came to a standstill.

The owner Müller was granted a concession for coffee and beer serving in 1890. Müller opened an economy and on the tower of the mill a wooden observation deck. This was replaced in 1904 by the still existing stone structure with pinnacles.

In 1921 Paul Gantze purchased the mill and had an electric grinding plant reached inside. He moved the banquet to the neighbouring apartment building. In 1927 he built a small hall. The property became a popular excursion restaurant that was in operation until the 1950s.

Built as a residential dwelling in 1480, Tu Hwnt i’r Bont (Beyond the Bridge) is actually considerably older than the Inigo Jones bridge it stands beside. Some years later the building was used as the Courthouse for the surrounding area.

In the nineteenth century, Chimica Arenella was built inside the seaside village of Arenella, a large Art Nouveau-style factory where tobacco products were packaged, among other things.

The history of "Chimica Arenella" began in the 10s of the twentieth century, when it was established as a branch of the great German factory Gondelberg.

In 1930 it became the largest European citric acid factory, reaching prominent positions in the world chemical industry, and its plant became a reference point for other factories in the sector.

Today taking a tour inside the area of ​​the former factory is a surreal adventure, it seems to be in a strange country far from modern civilization, instead we are inside the city, even if in a hamlet.

----------------

Nell'Ottocento all'interno della borgata marinara dell'Arenella viene costruita la Chimica Arenella, grossa fabbrica in stile liberty dove tra le altre cose venivano confezionati prodotti di tabacco.

La storia della "Chimica Arenella" iniziò negli anni dieci del novecento, quando fu costituita come succursale della grande fabbrica tedesca Gondelberg.

Nel 1930 divenne la più grande fabbrica europea di acido citrico, raggiungendo posizioni di rilievo nell'industria chimica mondiale, e il suo stabilimento divenne punto di riferimento per le altre fabbriche del settore.

Oggi fare un giro dentro l’area dell’ex stabilimento e’ un avventura surreale, sembra di trovarsi in uno strano paese lontano dalla civilta’ moderna, invece siamo dentro la citta’, anche se in una borgata.

The church that stands today was completed in 1717. This church was built on the rubble of the 1625 church destroyed in the Pueblo Indian Revolt.

The first town, built by Celts in the first century BC, occupied about 30 hectares along the slopes of Gellért Hill. Archaeological finds suggest that it may have been a densely populated settlement with a separate district of craftsmen (potteries and bronze foundries). It may have been a trading centre as well, as coins coming from different regions would indicate. The town was occupied by the Romans at the beginning of the Christian era. Its inhabitants moved to the Danube plains to a city retaining the Celtic name (Aquincum) in the first century AD. In AD 106, the city became the capital of the Roman province of Pannonia Inferior. The headquarters of the governor and significant military force were stationed here, and its population numbered about 20,000. It was frequently involved in wars on the border of the Roman Empire (formed by the Danube River).

The city of Budapest was officially created on 17 November 1873 from a merger of the three neighboring cities of Pest, Buda and Óbuda. Smaller towns on the outskirts of the original city were amalgamated into Greater Budapest in 1950. ( wikipedia )

Built in 1860 of magnificent stone and brick, Roselawn is situated in a lovely garden setting along Port Colborne's Fielden Avenue and displays many characteristics typical of the Second Empire style. This historic three-storey dwelling has served a number of residential, social and cultural purposes and is associated with a number of Port Colborne's most prominent families.

The Prince Edward Point Lighthouse, built in 1881, is a squaretapered wooden lighthouse with an attached dwelling. The lighthouse is located on the eastern tip of Prince Edward Point, Ontario. Besides the combined 7.8-metre (26 foot) lighthouse and keeper’s residence, the lightstation also includes a detached shed. The lighthouse was automated in 1941 and operated until 1959 when it was replaced by a steel skeleton tower.

The lighthouse is associated with various shipwrecks that occurred in this area, colloquially called the “Graveyard of Lake Ontario”.

The Prince Edward Point Lighthouse supported the shipping industry, marking a safe avenue for commercial ships travelling through the waters of Lake Ontario for nearly 80 years. The lighthouse marks the only protected harbour for a distance of approximately 60 nautical miles.

Prince Edward Point Lighthouse was recognized as a Heritage Lighthouse in 2015. (Parks Canada)

There were 4 lighthouses built on Wicklow head. Three of them are still standing. The first two were built in 1781. In 1810 the roof blew off one of them and it was replaced 30 years later. It is now used as a holiday home and you can stay in your very own lighthouse. The second one was demolished and replaced with this one and the one further down the cliff { see photos 5th,7th and 8th photo back in my stream and album below } and which is still operational, were both built in 1866.

Its said that the first pair couldnt be seen in a fog as they were in the wrong position but it has more likely to do with the lights themselves which used tallow made from beef and mutton fat, and were not bright enough.

Here is a nice piece from the B.B.C. series "Coast" which gives some interesting info on the area and also Bray head with its unique walk and railway,

Sandcastles

We built sand castles that washed away

I made you cry when I walked away

Oh, and although I promised that I couldn't stay, baby

Every promise don't work out that way, oh, babe

Every promise don't work out that way

Dishes smashed on my counter from our last encounter

Pictures snatched out the frame

Bitch, I scratched out your name and your face

What is it about you that I can't erase, baby?

Well every promise don't work out that way, no no, babe

Well every promise don't work out that way

And your heart is broken 'cause I walked away

Show me your scars and I won't walk away

Oh, and I know I promised that I couldn't stay, baby

Every promise don't work out that way, no no no no no

Every promise don't work out that way

My husband built this birdhouse back in Alaska to specific sizes for swallows. Chickadees used it two years in a row. It stood high on a metal pole away from interlopers.

Then we moved here, birdhouse included, and finally, tree swallows! Sounds like quite a few hungry ones inside.

At Frederiksborg Castle (Danish: Frederiksborg Slot), which is a royal castle built in a northern Renaissance style, for the Danish king Christian IV. The main building of the castle was built 1602-1620 (replacing an older structure). For a long time it served as a royal residence, but it was almost completely destroyed in a fire 1859 (which spared only the chapel and audience chamber). The castle was restored, using old plans and drawings to give it its proper look - with generous donations made by J.C. Jabosen (who made a fortune founding the Carlsberg brewery), to turn it into a National Museum, which it still is to this day.

So yes, this is a 19th century vision of how a Renaissance ceiling should look like.

Built in 1938 as a Marathon Gas Station, this delightful structure is now the home of the Springfield Bicycle Doctor. In the years between being a gas station and bicycle shop, the building has been occupied as a laundry and dry cleaners, real estate office and, more recently, a barber shop. The current owners, Robert and Cynde LaBonte, purchased the property in early 2012, and have since remodeled the original building for their bicycle sales and repair shop, and have added a small storage building.

The Community Hall was built as the United Free Church to the design of JD Cairns in 1908 . It was built on the site of a previous, smaller United Free church, following a union with Crail West Church (now Holy Trinity Catholic Church). It is a typical Free Presbyterian Church building dating from the Edwardian period. Like many churches of this period, it used a style derived from Scottish precedents but also fitted in with the preference for late Gothic, often labelled Perpendicular, across Britain generally.

​

The church had a typical Presbyterian plan. The emphasis on preaching produced a wide and relatively short central main vessel to the church. There are shallow transepts to either side to create more space to either side of the pulpit.

​

There is a short chancel which is now used as a stage and would have been the sanctuary containing the communion table and chairs for elders. To the east is a church hall which is integrated into the design of the remainder of the building. The internal design of the space that was originally the church is particularly attractive. A quality is given to the space by its expressive roof form with the underside of the main trusses forming curves articulating the bays of the church. This arrangement is linked with the pairs of arches into the transepts. At the western end of the church is the original gallery.

​

It is listed Category B. Externally the main feature is the octagonal tower which forms a minor landmark in the northern part of Crail on the A917 St Andrews Road.

DOA animal shelter, built in 2007, architects: Arons & Gelauff.

This is the largest animal shelter in the Netherlands, it has room for 180 dogs and 480 cats.

Het grootste dierenasiel van Nederland is in 2007 in Osdorp aan de rafelranden van de stad gerealiseerd. De DOA (Dierenopvang Amsterdam) is het resultaat van twee gefuseerde dierenasielen die zich met hun nieuwe organisatie vestigden in het nieuwbouwcomplex in Osdorp. Het asiel heeft plaats voor 180 honden en 480 katten.

Het dierenopvangcentrum heeft twee bouwlagen. Door de langgerekte façade en de omringende sloot doet het gebouw haast denken aan een moderne versie van een fort. De buitenkant bestaat uit metalen gevelplaten in verschillende kleuren groen (arcam.nl).

The Church was built in 1799 on the former Caminho dos Pinheiros, today Rua da Consolação, with the help of alms from devotees to Our Lady of Consolation and with the endorsement of the diocesan bishop Mateus de Abreu Pereira were able to begin its construction, with the technique of taipa, quite common at the time. The oldest record of its construction is a document transcribed by Jacinto Ribeiro, in which it attributes the idealization of the temple to the faithful Luiz da Silva and his brothers. Located in a boggy and marshy region there is another document proving the Church's ancient existence: on November 23, 1803, an office was registered that showed the need for drinking water for the residents of the neighborhood "Nossa Senhora da Consolação". In view of the custom of baptizing the district with religious names, mainly related to sanctuaries, the Church, besides already existing, corresponded to an important piece for the functioning of the region. And, in the year 1810, a plant in the city of São Paulo contained the chapel.

Built sometime around 1900 this log barn was used to shelter the horses that pull the stagecoach from Penticton to Princeton, British Columbia. This was the first stop after the stagecoach left Penticton and the passengers would stay in the hotel across the road. It took four days to travel the 120 km (75 miles) to Princeton. Today, the trip takes about an 1 hour 15 minutes.

Built in 1908 this abandoned schoolhouse has a very sad story....in 1990 Dennis Depue shot his wife in the back of the head and dumped the bloody blanket behind the school and dumped her body in a field behind the church, he thought he was never seen but a couple out driving around spotted him and watched what he was doing, the movie Jeepers Creepers has a scene where it almost duplicates what transpired.

After Dennis had killed his wife he fled the state, the murder made it on the show “ Unsolved Mysteries “ in 1991, when he learned that he was on the show and the cops where closing in on him he tried to flee and had a shoot out with the cops, Dennis Depue died by self inflicted gun shot.

The Pierre Bremond House is one of the 11 houses built between 1859 and 1910 that make up the Bremond Block Historic District. The block was added to National Register of Historic Places in 1970, and is considered one of the few remaining upper-class Victorian neighborhoods of the middle to late nineteenth century in Texas. Six of the eleven houses were built or expanded for members of the families of brothers Eugene and John Bremond, who were prominent in late-nineteenth-century Austin social, merchandising, and banking circles. Of these six residences, all but one were designed and built by the Austin contractor, George Fiegel.

The Pierre Bremond House sits in the center of the 400 block of W. Seventh St. between the John Bremond, Jr. House on its east side, and the Eugene Bremond House, the house of Pierre's father, on its west side. Built in 1898, the two-story, tan brick house was the last Bremond house to be built. It is a subdued late Victorian with a low-pitched hip roof, a double gallery, and an unobtrusive tower on the west side.

While the Pierre Bremond House may be the least ornate of all the houses, Pierre's home was the most spacious. Renovated in 2012, the house is currently owned by the Texas Classroom Teachers Association, who also own the John Bremond, Jr. home next door that serves as the association headquarters.
