A working estate still guided by the seasons, with an impressive mansion and Home Farm.

 

The mansion, at the heart of this estate, is evidence of Elsie Bambridge's success in creating a home.

 

Intimate rooms contrast with beautiful and unexpected Georgian interiors, including Soane's breathtaking Yellow Drawing Room and wonderful plunge bath. The fascinating basement corridor offers a glimpse into life below stairs.

 

Stroll around the colourful parterre garden and wander through the Pleasure Grounds to the walled garden, abundant with fruit, vegetables and herbaceous borders.

 

Home Farm contrasts the traditional farmyard with the noisy modern piggery and cattle sheds.

 

Stride out across the landscape park, among the rare-breed cattle, and imagine the previous owners planning their visions of grand avenues and spectacular vistas. Originally a small deer park surrounded by open fields, Wimpole parkland has changed many times throughout its history. Different owners employed different landscape designers and gardeners, who each left their mark on the landscape.

 

This 18th century walled garden was constructed by William Eames and features Sir John Soane’s glasshouse. This is where we produce our young plants for the vegetable plots. Last year we delivered in excess of 450kg of produce to our restaurant. We're currently supplying cut flowers to the hall.

 

Pleasure grounds - In the 18th century these grounds were where the family took evening strolls and enjoyed picnics. They contained many rare, exotic and unusual plants sourced from all over the world. These plants were discovered by plant hunters who travelled the world. Why not wander down our new plant hunter path?

botanical names: Buchanania lanzan Spreng. ... heterotypic synonyms: Buchanania latifolia Roxb. • Lanzana solitaria Stokes • Spondias elliptica Rottb. ex Hook.f. ... and more at POWO, retrieved 21 December 2025

 

~~~~~ KNOWN DISTRIBUTION in INDIA ~~~~~

almost throughout the drier parts of the country

 

~~~~~ THE TAXONOMIC CONFUSION ~~~~~

Buchanania lanzan Spreng. and Buchanania cochinchinensis (Lour.) Almeida are found linked because many botanical databases and local floras (especially in India) continue to use Buchanania cochinchinensis as the "accepted" name for the chironji tree (Buchanania lanzan). However, modern global authorities like Plants of the World Online (POWO) treat Buchanania cochinchinensis strictly as a synonym of the Rutaceae tree Glycosmis cochinchinensis, leaving Buchanania lanzan Spreng. as the correct name for the chironji tree.

The Roman ruins of Volubilis are a striking sight, set in the ledge of a high plateau, some 33 kilometres north of Meknes. It is by far the most important Roman settlement in Morocco and the best preserved, having been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1997. The scope of the ruins may well be familiar to you: it is the setting of Martin Scorsese’s The Last Temptation of Christ.

Another old photo. One of the second tier tourist spots in Manila is the Chinese Cemetery. It is an interesting spot, with some very grandiose tombs and draws enough people that there are guides who make a living showing people around. This was our guide when we were there.

As an aside, I have been looking over some old film scans, this is one of them. I have to say that the scanning of film takes forever, but once that is done, good exposures really need almost no processing and they do have a very nice character of whatever film stock you were using. I think this was Kodak Elitechrome.

A ranger begins a tour aboard the Lake Queem II on Yellowstome Lake as it leaves Bridge Bay marina in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. Yhe tour boat gives senic tours around the Lkae Village and Stevenson Island Area in the summer. Usually there is a ranger aboard to give the narration and tell about the both the history and natural history of the Lake area.

 

With a surface area of 132 square miles, Yellowstone Lake is the largest lake at high elevation (i.e., more than 7,000 ft.) in North America. It is a natural lake, situated at 7,733 ft. above sea level. It is roughly 20 miles long and 14 miles wide with 141 miles of shoreline. It is frozen nearly half the year. It freezes in late December or early January and thaws in late May or early June.Recent research by Dr. Val Klump of the Center for Great Lakes Research and the University of Wisconsin has revolutionized the way we look at Yellowstone Lake. Figuratively, if one could pour all the water out of Yellowstone Lake, what would be found on the bottom is similar to what is found on land in Yellowstone; geysers, hot springs, and deep canyons. With a small submersible robot, the researchers found a canyon just east of Stevenson Island which was 390 ft. deep. Prior to this finding, the deepest spot in the lake was thought to be 320 ft., at West Thumb.Underwater geysers, hot springs, and fumaroles were found at West Thumb and Mary and Sedge Bays. The hottest spot in the lake was found at Mary Bay where the temperature was recorded at 252° F (122° C). Hollow pipes, or chimneys of silica, several feet in height, were found rising up from the lake bottom at Mary Bay. It is thought that these are the old plumbing systems of now dormant geysers. Rock spires up to 20-feet tall were found underwater near Bridge Bay. Samples of this rock are being analyzed, though it is believed that these features are probably related to underwater thermal activity.This group of researchers also found that the conditions in Yellowstone Lake are similar to those that occur near the famous hydrothermal vents on the Pacific Ocean's mid-ocean ridge. Nutrient- and mineral-rich submarine fountains support incredible plant and animal communities, including bacterial mats, sponges, and earthworms.

Feel free to steal this. it's not mine and I honestly don't remember where I found it but it came in handy the last couple nights when shooting the moon and perhaps it can help you too.

Used a singh-ray blue/gold filter for this shot. See here for a variation in blue.

Tours featuring "40s" were regular events in 1984 and "rare" 40082 was arranged for the DAA North West Rambler on March 10th 1984. 40082 was obviously in poor health and expired at Park after a short run from Stockport

Guide Bridge signal box located to the east of Guide Bridge railway station. 15:00, Monday 18th July 1988

(1/60, F8)

 

Guide Bridge signal box was a Great Central Railway Company type 5 design opened on 9th December 1984 fitted with a Westinghouse Signals Limited M4 entrance-exit signalling panel, having previously been open as Ashton Junction signal box from January 1907 until 24th November 1984. The signal box was refurbished in the 2003 including the fitting of uPVC windows, and closed on 4th December 2011 when control passed to the Manchester East Signalling Control Centre. The signal box was originally scheduled to close on 17th October 2011 but the closure was postponed due to faults or quirks transferring to Manchester East Signalling Control Centre when Ashburys signal box closed and the signalmen being given more time to get used to them. After closure the signal box was retained for use as an office, unfortunately an electrical rewire was required which was considered to much and the signal box was demolished in mid June 2013

 

A replacement Tew Engineering Limited SM48 entrance-exit signalling panel was constructed but never installed

 

Ref no 08881

I think this is from 2002 but it might be earlier.
