The utilitarian pavilion, bar and function room building at Dill Hall Lane, Clayton-le-Moors home to Enfield Cricket Club. In 2017, Enfield took £250,000 over the bar; a tribute to the club committee's hard work in ensuring a constant flow of bookings. Captured during a seven-wicket defeat by Lancashire League rivals Walsden.
Opting to bat, Enfield struggled for runs. Professional Shashrika Pussegolla hit a fairly laboured 78 but the next highest contribution was extras (21), a reflection of weak batting. Walsden were in no hurry to reach their modest target. After taking 2-28, Jake Hooson opened the batting and top-scored with 67 not out. Nick Barker departed three runs shy of a half-century. Thankfully, professional Umesh Karunaratne wasn't in a mood to dawdle and injected some urgency in hastening the visitors towards a comprehensive win. Umesh, unbeaten on 40, clinched victory with a big six.
Match statistics:
Admission: £4. Programme: teamsheet (w/a). Attendance: 80. Enfield won the toss and elected to bat.

Umpires: Steve Kirkbright and Phil Keating.
Enfield Cricket Club were formed in 1859, and the following year played the first games on a part of what is now their Dill Hall Lane ground. The site was levelled in 1860. The first recorded game at the venue, on the border of Clayton-le-Moors and Accrington, was on May 28th that year. The visitors were Church & Oswaldtwistle. In 1892, Enfield became founder members of the Lancashire League. The club are still members today. Enfield have engaged professionals since 1859. Arthur Appleby, from Clayton-le-Moors, was the club's first professional. He went on to play for Lancashire, and toured Canada and the US with an MCC squad also featuring W.G. Grace. Appleby played his final game for Enfield in 1902. He was 59. During the first two decades of the Lancashire League, Tom Lancaster was Enfield's star player. He set batting and bowling aggregate records that still stand. Famous players to have worn Enfield's colours over the years include Eddie Paynter (he played in the 'Bodyline' Test series), Clyde Walcott, Conrad Hunte, Dik Abedspent, Madan Lal, Damien Fleming, Shane Lee (Brett's older brother), Martin van Jaarsveld and Alviro Petersen. Enfield have topped the Lancashire League on five occasions, in 1909, 1943, 1968, 1971 and 1977. They lifted the league's knockout Worsley Cup trophy in 1978, 1979, 1989 and 1991, and were beaten finalists in 1953, 1973 and 1977.
Sumpter Valley's 40-ton, 2-Truck Heisler covers its train with a steam blanket in the chilly air of a fall morning.
It is difficult to find adjectives to describe Heisler Locomotives. When Charles Heisler first started putting his designs to paper back in the late 1800s, beauty was definitely not high on his list of priorities. These engines were built for hauling logs off out of remote locations, where grades were steep and track was often pretty darn bad. Tractive effort was the primary design consideration. The Heisler utilized a two-cylinder steam engine, with those cylinders arranged in a V-configuration. You might say it was one of the first V-Twins. Those cylinders drove a central drive shaft, which extended down the longitudinal centerline of the locomotive. The drive shaft was, in turn, geared to the front wheel set of each truck. The rear wheel set on each truck was connected to, and received power from, the front wheel set via side-rods. Yup....it was a real piece of work. A particularly efficient piece of work at that. The Heisler design minimized the number of times that direction of motion was changed within the drive train, and in doing so, got more power from the cylinders to the track than its relatives, the Shay and the Climax. Heislers were also the fastest of the geared engines, which made them somewhat more versatile. Unfortunately, no machine is perfect and the Heisler had its shortcomings. That central drive shaft made the running gear a little tougher to maintain than on a Shay and it also limited the size of the firebox. The ride? Well, let's just say that a long day on a Heisler was like a long day on a Harley Davidson!

Built in 1839, 1851, and 1864, this Greek Revival-style building was designed by Henry Singleton, and was later renovated by Robert S. Mitchell and William Rumbold, adding several of the building’s wings and present features. The oldest section of the courthouse is the foundation of the east wing, which extends towards the Mississippi River, and is the only remaining portion of the 1816-1828 Federal-style courthouse that stood on the same site, which was designed by the firm Laveille and Morton, and was incorporated into the larger present courthouse structure in 1839, before being removed and replaced with the present east wing during the 1851 renovation. The 1839 portion of the building, designed by Henry Singleton, consists of the north, south, and west wings, which once surrounded a rotunda with a low dome, much like the original design of the United States Capitol. In 1851, under the direction of architect Robert S. Mitchell, the east wing was removed and replaced with the present structure, with the new east wing better matching the 1839 wings. In 1861-1864, under the direction of architect William Rumbold, a cast iron dome, based on St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, and similar to the dome on the United States Capitol, was added to the center of the building, at which time the building took on its present form. Upon the addition of the dome, the courthouse was the tallest building in St. Louis and Missouri until 1896, when St. Louis Union Station was constructed. In addition to its architectural history, in the 1850s, the courthouse was where the Dred Scott Case was heard, prior to the case being brought before the US Supreme Court, and slave auctions were regularly held inside the Probate Courts chambers in the building’s east wing, where slaves owned by deceased slaveholders without a hard will, and slaveowners who had declared bankruptcy, were sold. This practice ended in 1861. The building continued to serve as the St. Louis County Courthouse until St. Louis City split from St. Louis County in 1877, and subsequently served as the St. Louis City Courthouse until 1930, when the present City Courts building was completed seven blocks to the west.
The building features a stone exterior with doric pilasters, two-story porticoes on the north, east, and west wings with fluted doric columns and pediments, gabled roofs with pediments, architraves with triglyphs and recessed panels, six-over-six double-hung windows, a central dome on an octagonal base with engaged doric columns and arched windows on the lower portion of the drum, a cornice below oxeye windows and a copper-clad dome above, a lantern with a decorative balustrade at the base, arched bays, and doric columns, with a domed roof and flagpole at the top. Inside, the building features many well-preserved historic spaces that operate as a museum, including a rotunda with murals by artist Karl Ferdinand Wimar, fluted corinthian pilasters with gilded capitals, doric, ionic, and corinthian columns, historic chandeliers, arced staircases, coffered ceilings, marble floors, wooden furniture, wooden paneled doors, and wooden paneling.
The building is part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. Since the mid-20th Century, the building has functioned as a museum, interpreting the history of the building and the surrounding city, which became part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial in 1940, and Gateway Arch National Park, upon re-designation of the national memorial in 2018. As of 2023, the courthouse is undergoing an extensive renovation, which will make the building accessible to those with physical disabilities and limitations, replace building systems, modernize National Park Service office spaces in the building, update galleries and exhibits, and restore the historic features of the building.

In 1975 Canadian company Dominion Road Machinery developed a huge grader, the 80-T. At 700 horsepower, it was the world's largest grader, designed for mining applications. Soon thereafter, the company now called Champion Road Machinery updated the model to the 100-T. It featured a 7.3 m (24 ft.) blade.
Over its production span, only ten graders have been manufactured. Champion Road Machinery later became part of Volvo Construction Equipment.

I added a function to this build. The bombable wall that allows you to reach the Great Fairy who gives you Nayru's Love now has an exploding feature! The wall breaks in half when you flick that red cone.
I will have a full demonstration when I post the creation. I also rebuilt all the rockwork so it looks much better now. Another update to come soon!
I understand why the crabber is out of the water but that cruiser should be repaying the investment.
This is Grumpy.
