<p>Midway, also known as Riverdale Farm, is a historic home and farm complex located near Millington, Albemarle County, Virginia. The main dwelling is a two-story, four-bay brick structure with a two-story porch. It was built in three sections, with the east wing built during the 1820s and a second structure to the west about 1815; they were connected in the late 19th century. The east wing features Federal woodwork. A rear  kitchen wing was added about 1930. It is connected to the main house by a two-story hyphen. Also on the property are a contributing brick kitchen and wood-frame barn. The grounds of Midway were landscaped in 1936 by noted landscape architect Charles Gillette.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<p>Monument Valley Park is a historic, recreational park in Colorado Springs, Colorado through which Monument Creek flows. It is a National Register of Historic Places listing and is on the Colorado State Register of Historic Properties.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The park is located in the center of Colorado Springs. It is about 2 miles long, with Monument Creek, a tributary of Fountain Creek running through the center of the park from West Monroe south to West Bijou. The park is bounded on the west by Interstate 25 and the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway. At the east is residential housing.</p><br>
<p>Monument Creek flows north to south and falls about 72 feet in elevation. It is 5,988 feet in elevation at its lowest point at the southwestern corner of the park; It is 6,060 feet in elevation at the northern edge of the park, north of Boddington Field. The narrow Mesa Creek intersects with Monument Creek at the northwestern edge of the park.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Park creation</h3><br>
<p>General William Jackson Palmer donated the land for Monument Valley Park to Colorado Springs to be a "park for the people". The park was developed between 1904 and 1907 and included "elegant gardens, winding walks, bridged ponds, a tennis court, playgrounds and an arboretum displaying Colorado tree and shrub species and Palmer&#39;s Colorado Wildflower Garden." Spencer Penrose donated the swimming pool in 1914. The intention was to create a mixture of formal gardens and natural settings, like natural English gardens.</p><br>
<h3>Flood of 1935</h3><br>
<p>The park was damaged following a significant flood on Memorial Day, 1935. As a result, the park today looks very different than it did before the flood.</p><br>
<h3>WPA renovation</h3><br>
<p>The Works Progress Administration was engaged to renovate the park as the result of the flood damage. They built creekside stone retaining walls, bridges, rock steps and benches using timber and native stone as part of a rustic, picturesque design. A grandstand was built for one of the baseball fields. Stone markers were established with bronze plaques in recognition of the renovation work performed by the WPA. Features that were not replaced include a lake, some of the gardens, and rustic bridges.</p><br>
<h3>National Register of Historic Places</h3><br>
<p>In 2007, 100 years after General Palmer gifted the park to the city, Monument Valley Park was added to the National Register of Historic Places through the efforts of the Historic Preservation Alliance and the Friends of Monument Valley Park.</p><br>
<h2>Recreation area</h2><br>
<p>The park offers concrete and gravel trails for hiking, biking and walking. It has fields and courts for basketball, tennis, soccer, baseball, and volleyball. The park has the city&#39;s first public swimming pool and playgrounds.</p><br>
<p>The park has two sections, divided by Uintah. The northern portion is north of Uintah and the southern portion is below Uintah.</p><br>
<h3>South</h3><br>
<p>A recreation area west of Monument Creek includes the South Field, Sand Volleyball area, the Picnic Pavilion, Pool, Playground, and Tennis Courts. There are also tennis courts just south of Uintah. The tennis courts are painted for pickleball.</p><br>
<p>A pavilion, that accommodates 200 people, is located in the south section of Monument Valley Park, south of Unitah and near the swimming pool. Tennis courts, basketball courts, sand volleyball, a playground and play fields are near the pavilion. Amenities include access to electric outlets, upon request, 2 large grills and restrooms. Keys are needed to unlock the grills and electrical outlets.</p><br>
<p>The swimming pool is open 7 days a week in the summer, starting Memorial Day weekend. It is located at 220 Mesa and has locker rooms. In a large grassy area nearby are picnic tables.</p><br>
<h3>North</h3><br>
<p>A picnic shelter and play field is located in the middle of the northern part of the park. Boddington Park is at the northernmost section of the park.</p><br>
<h2>Trails</h2><br>
<p>Within the park is a 2.25 mile North Loop Trail and a 2 mile South Loop Trail, for a combined 4.25 miles. There is also a 1 mile Fitness Course.</p><br>
<h3>Pikes Peak Greenway</h3><br>
<p>There are two Pikes Peak Greenway "reaches" in Monument Valley Park, one north of Uintah and the other south of Uintah. In both cases there are trails on both sides of Monument Creek.</p><br>
<p>The western trails have access to other trails. From Monument Valley Reach (north) a traveler can meet up with the Mesa Springs Greenway or the Mesa Valley Trail at Sonderman Park. The Mesa Springs Greenway intersects with the Monument Valley Reach (south).</p><br>
<h2>Gardens</h2><br>
<p>General Palmer&#39;s wildflower garden became the site of the Formal Gardens, which contain roses, tulips, zinnias and begonias. It is at the southernmost end of the park near Bijou Street. The City Greenhouse and H.A.S. Demonstration Garden are on Glen Avenue.</p><br>
<h2>Friends of Monument Valley Park</h2><br>
<p>The non-profit Friends of Monument Valley Park organization was formed in 2000 to "advocate for the restoration, protection, and enhancement of the park." Individuals may volunteer to support the organizations efforts. They organized an event to plant trees in the park on Arbor Day in 2009 and 2010.</p><br>
<h2>Events</h2><br>
<p>The Friends of Monument Valley Park organize annual events, including:</p><br>
<p>General Palmer Day, held on July 31. It is an event that brings back some of the early 20th century lifestyle. People are encouraged to wear turn-of-the-century attire and bring their own picnic dinner. The evening event, held at the Pavilion, includes a historical program, music, a sing-along and ice cream cart.</p><br>
<p>Lilac Day, held in mid-May, as a homage to William Palmer. The day has been celebrated since the parks beginnings. The Friends sponsors lilac planting, starting in 2002, and organized a cleanup day at the park in 2009. In 2012 they planted General Palmers favorite lilacs — the common purple, the common white, the Ludwig spaeth, and Persian lilac — west of the Glen and Cache la Poudre parking lot.</p><br>
<p>A Bird Walk was mid-May in 2012 and 2013. In 2012 the event was led by naturalist Ken Pals, and the group spotted 20 species of birds during their walk.</p><br>
<p>Musical Mondays began in 2008 and are their main summer event.</p><br>
<p>Helen Hunt Falls is a waterfall located on Cheyenne Creek in the North Cheyenne Cañon Park of Colorado Springs, Colorado. The falls are named in honor of Helen Maria Hunt Jackson , a United States poet and writer who became an activist on behalf of improved treatment of Native Americans by the USA government. She died in San Francisco, California in 1885 and was later buried in Colorado Springs. The falls are located on North Cheyenne Creek immediately off of North Cheyenne Canyon Road in the North Cheyenne Canyon Park. There is parking for about 30 vehicles at the falls and it becomes crowded early during summer months when visits to the canyon are popular among locals and tourists. The Columbine Trail, which starts at the entrance of the Park by the Starsmore Visitor and Nature Center, terminates at Helen Hunt Falls. Visitors can hike a short distance of about 2/3 of a mile up a moderately steep trail above Helen Hunt Falls to reach Silver Cascade Falls.</p><br>

<p>The Washington Cemetery is a historic rural cemetery on the outskirts of the city of Washington Court House in the southeastern part of the USA state of Ohio. Established in the mid-19th century, the cemetery was transformed from a typical cemetery into a masterpiece of design during its first several decades. It is the burial place of several prominent political figures, and elements of its design have caused it to be designated a historic site.</p><br>
<h2>Establishment</h2><br>
<p>The cemetery was platted in 1856 by several eminent citizens, including Judge Daniel McLain, who had previously owned the land. Although its original boundaries encompassed 10 acre, the area was soon tripled. As soon as the cemetery was properly organized in a legal fashion, it was devised to the city and to Union Township. Colonel Samuel N. Yeoman, a former forty-niner and Civil War veteran, established the cemetery; he participated in planning its layout and served as its first president. Under the leadership of superintendents W.B. Ely, James Holmes, and George Gossard, the cemetery was converted from an ordinary burial ground into a garden cemetery of a sort little seen in Ohio except in the large cities. Some of the leading components of its design are the winding driveways, artificial lakes, rare shrubs and trees, and a fountain that was placed in 1892. Two of the most prominent buildings in the cemetery are its mausoleum (originally known as the "Washington Memorial") and its chapel (originally the "Doctor Judy Memorial&quot now known as the "Judy Chapel"), which were constructed in 1914 and 1905 respectively.</p><br>
<h2>Later history</h2><br>
<p>In 1903, local residents began planning a streetcar line for the city, with the cemetery to be the terminus; although rails and other resources were purchased, the concept was ultimately abandoned without anything having been built. As the twentieth century passed, the cemetery fell into disarray; money was saved by filling in a lake, and the fountain and chapel deteriorated. Under the leadership of the garden clubs of Fayette County, Judy Chapel and the fountain were restored in 1997 and the early 2000s respectively. The chapel was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998, and the entire cemetery followed it eight years later; it was designated the "Washington Cemetery Historic District." This designation was unusual, for both religious properties and cemeteries are generally ineligible for the National Register and must pass higher standards than most other properties to be eligible for inclusion.</p><br>
<h2>Notable burials</h2><br>
<p>Two USA Representatives are buried at Washington Cemetery: Mills Gardner (died 1910) and James D. Post (died 1921), as well as Harry M. Daugherty, who served as United States Attorney General during the presidencies of Warren G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge in the 1920s.</p><br>
<p>The Doniphan County Courthouse, located in Courthouse Square in Troy, is the seat of government of Doniphan County, Kansas. The courthouse was built from 1905 to 1906 and was the fourth courthouse in the county. Architect George P. Washburn, who designed several courthouses in the state, designed the building in the Romanesque Revival style. The red brick building has a limestone base, and the building&#39;s north and south entrances feature limestone porches. The courthouse features circular towers at each corner and a decagonal cupola at the center of the building. The top floor of the building features arched windows connected by a band of stone.</p><br>
<p>The courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 15, 1974. The courthouse is also included in the Doniphan County Courthouse Square Historic District, which is also on the National Register.</p><br>
<p>Estouteville is a historic home located near Powell Corner, Albemarle County, Virginia. The main house was begun in 1827, and consists of a two-story, seven-bay central block, 68 feet by 43 feet, with two 35 feet by 26 feet, three-bay, single-story wings. It is constructed of brick and is in the Roman Revival style. A Tuscan cornice embellishes the low hipped roofs of all three sections, each of which is surmounted by tall interior end chimneys. The interior plan is dominated by the large Great Hall, a 23-by-35-foot richly decorated room. Also on the property are a contributing kitchen / wash house; a square frame dairy ; a square, brick smokehouse, probably built in the mid-19th century, also covered with a pyramidal roof; and a frame slave quarters.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<p>Cliffside is a historic home located near Scottsville, Albemarle County, Virginia. It was built in 1835, and is a two-story, brick central passage plan dwelling on a high basement in the Federal style. A side passage rear ell was added between about 1850 and 1860. Both sections have low-pitched gable roofs and the front facade features an original single-story, tetrastyle Greek Revival portico. Also on the property are a contributing structure, the "Ginger House", a one-story frame office/schoolhouse probably erected in the mid-19th century, and the family cemetery. The house served as General Philip Sheridan&#39;s headquarters during the American Civil War.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It is located in the Scottsville Historic District.</p><br>
<p>The Harper County Courthouse, located at 201 N. Jennings Ave. in Anthony, is the seat of government of Harper County, Kansas. Built in 1907, the courthouse replaced a smaller and more modest courthouse and represented the countys prosperity at the time. The construction of the courthouse also settled a lingering controversy over Harper Countys seat. George P. Washburn, a prominent Kansas architect, designed the courthouse. The courthouse&#39;s design features four corner towers and a clock tower at the center of the building. The west and east entrances to the building feature stone porches. The arched third-story windows of the courthouse are connected by a band of stone encircling the building.</p><br>
<p>The courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 22, 1978.</p><br>
<p>Mount Herard is a high and prominent mountain summit in the Sangre de Cristo Range of the Rocky Mountains of North America. The 13,345 ft thirteener is located in the Sangre de Cristo Wilderness of Great Sand Dunes National Preserve, 24.1 km southeast  of the Town of Crestone in Saguache County, Colorado, United States.</p><br>
<h2>Mountain</h2><br>
<p>Originally called Medano Peak, the mountain with seven separate summits was renamed Mount Seven at the request of the Colorado Mountain Club in 1970. In 1984 the mountain&#39;s name was changed to honor Ulysses Herard who homesteaded on its slopes in 1876.</p><br>

<p>Visočica is a mountain range in central Bosnia and Herzegovina. Geologically, Visočica is part of the Dinaric Alps and formed largely of secondary and tertiary sedimentary rock, mostly limestone and dolomite. Due to subterranean non-porous geological layers, the typical karst characteristics of the nearby Herzegovina mountains are relatively absent in Visočica, resulting in enough water sources, even at heights around 1500–1700 m. Springtime lakes, though, tend to dry out soon towards the summer. Some smaller streams source from these mountains as tributaries to its bordering rivers: the Ljuta in the east, the Rakitnica on its northern and western slopes and the Neretva towards the south.</p><br>
<p>Notable peaks are Džamija (1974 m.), Vito (1960 m.), Veliko Ljeljen (1963 m.), Crveni Kuk (1733 m.) and Veliko Toholj (1837 m.).</p><br>
<h2>Skiing and hiking</h2><br>
<p>The Visočica mountains were on the edges affected by the heavy combat that was going on around the Treskavica and Neretva frontlines during the 1992-1995 conflict. The central main ridges remained largely spared from warfare and the mine risk is therefore minimal within the area west of the Crveni Kuk summit and north east of a line that can be drawn between the villages of Luka and Grušća. Therefore, Visočica, is an attractive destination for hikers and tour skiers. The Visočica range consists basically of two main parallel ridges. The Toholj north east ridge -despite its wild formations- is rarely visited by hikers with the exception of Crveni Kuk, an ideal summit for ski touring on a day trip from Sarajevo. Most hikers focus on the Ljeljen (south west) ridge that culminates in the highest point: Džamija. The thick shrubs of Pinus Mugo that are typical for Bjelašnica or Lelija are almost completely absent on the Visočica ridges, possibly because of a long history of sheep herding on these water-rich mountains. Mixed forest -mostly beech- grows up to 1400 m. A rough unpaved mountain road passes through the Visočica range from Sinanovici in the east to Luka in the west. A well-furnished mountain hut is located just above Sinanovici (P.D.Vrela-Tušila) and marked itineraries to the main peaks have been re-established.</p><br>
<h2>Stećci</h2><br>
<p>On several sites within Visočica stećci are found. These medieval tombstones are typical for Bosnia-Herzegovina and have been erected in the 14th and 15th century. Visočica has two so-called necropoli that are of particular interest because they are located at high altitude amidst these mountains where no trace of contemporary or historical habitation can be found. The necropolis at a site called Poljice, at the side of the mountain road at 1500 m., features two stećci that bear the rare medieval Bosnian Cyrillic inscriptions. Even further up from this site, at 1700 m. in a high deserted valley called Jezera, there is another sizable necropolis that features several ornamented stećci, one stećak showing a most striking image of -most probably- the Good Shepherd and another showing the Bosnian Lily. One passes this impressive site while hiking along the marked trail towards the summit of Džamija.</p><br>
<p>The Val Nure is the valley of the Nure river, a tributary of the Po. The valley lies almost entirely in the Province of Piacenza, in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. It forms part of the Comunità Montana Valli del Nure e dell&#39;Arda.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The Val Nure is approximately 75 km long, and runs from south-west to north-east. The source of the Nure is at the Lago Nero. It runs into the Po about 10 km east of Piacenza, close to Roncarolo, a frazione of the comune of Caorso. The valley lies between the Val dArda to the east, the Valle del Ceno to the south-east, the Val dAveto to the south-west and the Val Trebbia to the west.</p><br>
<p>The Val Nure lies in the Colli Piacentini, or "hills of Piacenza", wine-growing region. Colli Piacentini Valnure is a Denominazione di Origine Controllata white wine made in the comuni of Ponte dell&#39;Olio, San Giorgio Piacentino and Vigolzone from Malvasia di Candia aromatica, Ortrugo and Trebbiano Romagnolo grape varieties.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In feudal times control of the valley was disputed between the Anguissola, Camia, Malaspina and Nicelli families. In the early 17th century it passed into the hands of Ottavio Farnese. There are some eighty castles and fortifications in the valley, among them the Castello di Riva at Ponte dell&#39;Olio, and the castles of Altoè, of Grazzano Visconti, of Paderna, of Podenzano and of Vigolzone.</p><br>
<h2>International relations</h2><br>
<h3>Twin towns – Sister cities</h3><br>
<p>Val Nure is twinned with:</p><br>

<p>The William Burnett House was a historic farmhouse located near the city of Washington Court House in Fayette County, Ohio, United States. Constructed in the nineteenth century, it was once a masterpiece of multiple architectural styles, and it was designated a historic site because of its architectural distinction.</p><br>
<h2>Burnett</h2><br>
<p>William Burnett was a prominent Union Township resident in the middle of the 19th century: an 1850 publication recorded him as serving as a constable for the township and as a marshal for the village of Washington Court House. Six years later, he was elected to a five-year term as the county sheriff for Fayette County. In addition to his law enforcement duties, Burnett operated a farm on the Leesburg Road southwest of Washington Courthouse; here he built a new house in 1869.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Burnetts house was built with brick walls and foundation, a metal roof, and elements of wood. Five bays wide, it featured an unusual combination of architectural styles: the basic floor plan was that of an I-house, but unlike most I-houses, it was constructed with high-style features common to the Greek Revival and Italianate styles of architecture. Some of the most prominent components of the houses design were the pairs of brackets placed above the hooded windows to support the large cornice; these Italianate elements were supplemented by Greek pieces such as the glass around the main entrance, which featured a lintel, sidelights, and a transom light. Together, the Greek and Italianate elements served to distinguish Burnett&#39;s residence from the typical I-house, which was a thoroughly vernacular structure.</p><br>
<h2>Preservation</h2><br>
<p>In early 1989, the Burnett House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its historically significant architecture. Despite this designation, the house was destroyed by 2006, but it remains listed on the Register.</p><br>
<p>The Woodson County Courthouse, located in Courthouse Square in Yates Center, is the seat of government of Woodson County, Kansas. Woodson County was created by the territorial legislature in 1857. Neosho Falls was selected as the first county seat. Between 1865 and 1875, the county seat moved several times, alternating between Neosho Falls and Kalida, then to Defiance, and finally, in 1876, to the newly laid out Yates Center in the center of the county.</p><br>
<p>Built from 1899 to 1900, the courthouse was the second in Yates Center and replaced a wooden building moved to the city from Defiance. Architect George P. Washburn, who designed thirteen county courthouses in Kansas, designed the building; its design is similar to Washburns Kingman County Courthouse. The brick courthouse sits on a limestone base and has a Late Victorian design which includes elements of the Romanesque Revival, Queen Anne, and Free Classical styles. The building is topped by four corner towers and a central cupola. Three of the courthouses four entrances feature arched doorways surrounded by porches, while the north entrance has a large limestone arch around the doorway and no porch. The first and second floor windows are rectangular, while the attic windows are arched and sit atop the second floor windows; all sets of windows are connected by stone bands encircling the building.</p><br>
<p>The courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 10, 1985. It is part of the Yates Center Courthouse Square Historic District, which is also on the National Register.</p><br>
<p>The Pepin County Courthouse and Jail is located in Durand, Wisconsin. In 1982, the site was added to the National Register of Historic Places. Additionally, it is listed on the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Use</h2><br>
<p>The courthouse was constructed from 1873 to 1874 at a cost of $7,000, with the jail built next door. Attached to the jail was the official residence of the Sheriff of Pepin County, Wisconsin. In 1881, the site managed to survive a fire that cause great damage to the town. The jail and sheriff&#39;s residence remained in use until 1984, while the courthouse remained in use until 1985.</p><br>
<h3>Old Courthouse Museum & Jail</h3><br>
<p>Currently, the property serves as the Old Courthouse Museum & Jail, which is operated by the Pepin County Historical Society. Exhibits include the courtroom, jail, and displays of local history and culture.</p><br>
<h2>1881 lynching incident</h2><br>
<p>In 1881, a man who had been associated with Quantrills Raiders and the James-Younger Gang was arrested in Durand for the murder of a sheriffs deputy. On the day of his trial at the courthouse, a mob descended upon the area, taking custody of the man and later lynching him.</p><br>
<p>The event was reported in the St. Paul Pioneer Press and The New York Times, causing Durand to gain a reputation of a "hanging town". However, it was later reported that most individuals involved in the lynching had come to the town from other areas. It was the last lynching in Wisconsin.</p><br>
<p>The Mount Carroll Historic District is a designated historic district in the Carroll County, Illinois town of Mount Carroll, which is the county seat. The district is listed on the National Register of Historic Places , and is one of a total six sites in the county included on the Register.</p><br>
<p>The district was added to the NRHP in 1980. One building within the district, the Carroll County Courthouse, had already been added to the NRHP in 1973.</p><br>
<p>The District is divided into three major sections: the traditional downtown of Mount Carroll, including the courthouse, library and business district; a residential area to the south of the downtown; and further south, the historic original campus of Chicago&#39;s Shimer College, now occupied by the Campbell Center for Historic Preservation Studies. The great majority of the buildings in the first two sections date from before 1900. Due to a fire that destroyed the original Mount Carroll Seminary campus in 1906, all of the Shimer campus buildings are from the 20th century, but most date from before 1930.</p><br>
<p>NRHP-listed structures that are located within Mount Carroll but not included in the district are the Caroline Mark House and Nathaniel Halderman House.</p><br>
<h2>Buildings and structures</h2><br>
<p>The District&#39;s boundaries include a total of 272 buildings and structures, of which 81 have been assessed to have particular architectural and historic significance.</p><br>
<h3>Shimer College campus</h3><br>
<p>The buildings of the erstwhile Shimer College campus are chiefly in the Georgian Revival style; they form a traditional college quadrangle. Two buildings that formed part of the Shimer College campus, but were built after 1960, are omitted from the Historic District: these are the Karyn Kupcinet Playhouse and the New Men&#39;s Dorm, both of which are separated from the rest of the campus by Jackson Street.</p><br>
<p>Since Shimer&#39;s departure in 1978, the campus has been occupied by the Campbell Center for Historic Preservation Studies, originally known as the "Restoration College". The buildings are used for administrative, classroom, and lodging purposes, but also serve as subject matter for the study and practice of historic preservation.</p><br>
<p>Clifton is a historic home located near Shadwell, Albemarle County, Virginia. It was built about 1800, and is a large, rambling two-story, five bay, wood frame dwelling. The house has later 19th- and 20th-century Colonial Revival-style additions and alterations. The front facade features a double level porch, added about 1930, and the interior has Federal details. Also on the property are the contributing brick office ; the ruins of an early 19th-century spring house; the shaft of a 19th-century stone-lined ice house; an early 20th-century chicken coop and an altered 1920s brick garage. Clifton was built by Congressman and Virginia Governor Thomas Mann Randolph, Jr. . It was part of the never-to-be port of North Milton, a sister port to the now extinct village of Milton directly across the Rivanna River.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<p>St Georges Basin is an open intermediate estuary, located in the South Coast region of New South Wales, adjacent to the Jervis Bay Territory.</p><br>
<h2>Location and features</h2><br>
<p>St Georges Basin is a coastal waterbody located immediately adjacent to the Tasman Sea of the South Pacific Ocean, north of the town of Sussex Inlet and east of the town of St Georges Basin. The basin is fed by Wandandian Creek and Tomerong Creek and its primary outflow is to the Tasman Sea via the Sussex Inlet. The basin covers a catchment area of 316 km&sup2; and contains approximately 215,079 ML of water over an estimated surface area of 40.9 km&sup2 and at an average depth of 5.3 m.</p><br>
<p>Located with the basin are six artificial reefs that range up to 2 m in depth.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The traditional custodians of the land surrounding St Georges Basin were the Indigenous Australian Yuin people, who named the basin as Bherwherrae or Bherwherree.</p><br>
<p>European surveyor Thomas Florance renamed the body of water as St Georges Basin on 29 November 1827, while tracing from Jervis Bay to Conjola.</p><br>
<p>The Shirley Hotel, located at 101 S. Colorado Ave. in Haxtun, Colorado is a historic building that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is a two-story brick building with terra cotta details and Early Commercial style. Built in 1921, it has also been known as Hotel Shirley, as Johnson Meat Company, as Haxtun Inn.</p><br>
<p>It operated as a hotel from 1921 to 1971, longer than any other hotel in Haxtun. It was deemed significant for association with the commercial history of Haxtun. It was deemed important architecturally, also, as "good intact example of an early 1920s commercial building built to accommodate a small town hotel and various related commercial enterprises."</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.</p><br>
<p>Huron Bay is a long, narrow fjord 12.3 mi long, located in Baraga County, Michigan, on the northern shore of the Upper Peninsula of the State of Michigan. The bay, oriented in a northeast-southwest direction, is bounded by the Huron Mountains on its east and the Abbaye Peninsula on its west. This bay offers mariners entry into the interior of the Huron Mountains, the highest mountain range in Michigan. This bay is extremely narrow, being less than 1.0 mi wide for most of its length, and it is one of the largest freshwater fjords in North America.</p><br>
<p>Efforts during the 1890s to settle and develop the Huron Bay area all ended in failure. An optimistic corporation in Michigan hired engineers and a work crew to grade a roadbed for the Iron Range and Huron Bay Railroad, which had been meant to carry iron ore from Champion, Michigan, in the Marquette Iron Range, to Huron Bay. After a brief period of development in 1891-93, the railroad went bankrupt in 1893 before any trains ever ran on the line. A bayside slate quarry also failed.</p><br>
<p>The cold, deep waters of Huron Bay provide habitat for lake trout.</p><br>
<p>US Post Office and Federal Courthouse-Colorado Springs Main, also known as the Colorado Springs Post Office and Federal Courthouse, is a historic federal building that serves as a post office and courthouse. It is located at 210 East Pikes Peak Avenue in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Renaissance Revival - Beaux-Arts style building is a National Register of Historic Places listing and is on the Colorado State Register of Historic Properties.</p><br>
<h2>Overview</h2><br>
<p>The land for the property was donated by Winfield Scott Stratton. Designed by James Knox Taylor the building was constructed between 1908 and 1910.

<p>The ruins of Fuerte de San Diego  are the remains of a castle located in Algeciras, Spain. The castle was built in 1730 following the Capture of Gibraltar in 1704.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Fort of San Diego in Algeciras was a military installation built around 1730 as a result of the policy of fortification of the area near Gibraltar undertaken by the government of Spain.</p><br>
<p>This fortification was one of the batteries in the Bay of Gibraltar created from the loss of Gibraltar in 1704 to protect the city from the possibility of a British invasion of Spain. These forts prevented British ships from taking shelter in the harbour. The fort was located in Punta del Fraile. This was an important landmark with the Fort Punta Carnero which was located north of this position.</p><br>
<p>The fort was destroyed in 1811 during Spain&#39;s alliance with the United Kingdom against Napoleon (as were) almost all the forts in the area. The tower however is just remaining.</p><br>
<p>The British destroyed the Spanish fortifications around Gibraltar in to deny their use by Napoleon&#39;s forces. The main Spanish lines were destroyed by Colonel Sir Charles Holloway on 14 February 1810 to the satisfaction o crowds who had come to see the spectacle. Following the main explosion other towers were destroyed and volunteers took away the rubble.</p><br>
<p>Swampy Creek Falls is a scenic, two-tiered horsetail waterfall along an unnamed tributary of the White Salmon River, originating from Swampy Meadows, on Mount Adams west slope, with a total height of 52 ft. Its main drop is about 30 ft feet. It cascades down over an exposure of Andesite, then veiling out over sloped ledges below, among a secluded forest. The falls are located not more than 800 feet from Forest Route 23, and is noted for having a secluded nature, seeming as if nothing is around for miles. It can be accessed while heading to the Midway High Lakes Area and Takhlakh Lake from Trout Lake or the Lewis River. From the road, viewers have to follow the Pacific Crest Trail for a few hundred feet, then crossing an unnamed stream on a foootbridge. From here, hikers must follow the creek downstream to the top of the falls, then descending down to its base. The falls is managed by the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, of Washington State.</p><br>
<p>Batemans Bay is an open oceanic embayment that is located in the South Coast region of New South Wales, Australia. The bay forms the mouth of the Clyde River and its primary outflow is to the Tasman Sea of the South Pacific Ocean.</p><br>
<h2>Location and features</h2><br>
<p>Batemans Bay is fed by the Clyde River and its tributaries, drawing its catchment from the eastern slopes of the Budawang Range and the Great Dividing Range from within the Budawang, Clyde River, Bimberamala, and Monga national parks. Cullendulla Creek also flows into Batemans Bay, between the townships of Surfside and Longbeach, west of Square Head.</p><br>
<p>The total catchment area of the bay is approximately 28 km&sup2; and the bay holds an estimated 383,484 ML of water at an average depth of 11.1 m. The surface area of the bay comprises 34.5 km&sup2; and generally stretches from the confluence of the Clyde River with the bay east of the town of Batemans Bay, near Snapper Island; to its mouth with the Tasman Sea at the Tollgate Islands, located between North Head and Circuit Beach.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The traditional custodians of the land surrounding Batemans Bay are the Indigenous Australian Yuin people of the Walbunja clan. A number of sites surrounding the bay are considered culturally significant to the Aboriginal peoples.</p><br>
<p>On 22 April 1770, European explorer, Captain James Cook first sighted the bay when navigating his way around Australia on his ship, HMS Endeavour. Cook may have named the bay in honour of Nathaniel Bateman; the captain of HMS Northumberland at the time when Cook was serving as her master from 1760-62. Alternatively, the name was chosen in honour of John Bateman, 2nd Viscount Bateman, a former Lord Commissioner of the Admiralty in the 1750s.</p><br>

<p>Duncliffe Wood is an ancient woodland on the summit of Duncliffe Hill, a few miles west of Shaftesbury. The area of the site is 92.16 hectare, making it one of the largest ancient woodlands in North Dorset.</p><br>
<p>The woodland is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, when it was owned by Roger de Belmont and valued at nine pounds. From there it passed into the possession of a French nunnery, until in 1414 it became a Crown property, from which it was then given to Eton College. Finally, it came into the ownership of King&#39;s College, Cambridge, in which it remained for 500 years. In 1984, the Woodland Trust—with the assistance of the Countryside Commission and local councils—acquired the site from the Forestry Commission as part of their offloading process. The Woodland Trust has, since its acquisition of the site, been felling the conifers and replanting them with native broadleaves, or else leaving them as clearings to encourage wildlife. In addition, the trust is trying to protect the remains of the original ancient woodland; the lime trees (Tilia) in the wood are reputed to be some of the oldest living things in Dorset, estimated at between 600 and 1000 years old. Notable butterflies on the site are the silver-washed fritillary, white admiral and purple hairstreak.</p><br>
<p>The W. E. Heginbotham House, located at 539 S. Baxter in Holyoke, Colorado serves as Holyoke&#39;s public library and is known as Heginbotham Library. It is a historic building, was built during 1919-1921, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>It was deemed significant on a statewide level, rather than just locally, for its Craftsman architecture, especially "rare for a sparsely populated rural county", and for its landscaped gardens "which form a remarkable ensemble of designed spaces, plant materials and architectural features that are essentially intact. The house and grounds are an integrated unit, comtemporaneously designed and installed to complement each other. The rooms of the house open onto verandahs and terraces which in turn open onto various gardens and courts following the trend of the Arts and Crafts movement in the early twentieth century."</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register in 1988. The listing included two contributing buildings, three contributing sites and three other contributing structures.</p><br>
<p>The Colclesser Bridge, over the Niobrara River about 11 miles south of Rushville, Nebraska, is a bridge erected at its current location in 1933. Its span was one of four 248 foot spans in the Columbus Loup River Bridge, that was built in 1888, and that carried the Lincoln and Meridian Highways over the Loup River. It was replaced in 1933, and the span was stored apparently, because when flooding in August 1933 destroyed numerous bridges in Sheridan County, it was purchased and erected for cost of $6,211, less four panels so its current span is 166 feet.</p><br>
<p>It is a Baltimore through truss bridge that was built originally by the King Iron Bridge & Manufacturing Co. and the George E. King Bridge Co., both of Cleveland, Ohio. It has also been known as Rath Bridge and as Niobrara River Bridge, and it has been designated NEHBS No. SH00-42. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.</p><br>

<p>The Edward Smith Jr. Farm is a historic farm complex located near Washington Court House in Fayette County, Ohio, United States. Home to one of Fayette County&#39;s earliest residents, the farm has experienced remarkably few changes since the nineteenth century, and it has been named a historic site.</p><br>
<h2>Edward Smith</h2><br>
<p>Edward Smith Jr. was born in Pennsylvania and moved to Fayette County with his parents in 1810; they were likely the first settlers on the present site of Washington Court House. Development of the family farm was hindered by the War of 1812 when Edward Smith Sr. volunteered for military service, and his death while trying to cross a flooded stream caused further hardship for the family. Nevertheless, his widow raised their ten children; Edward Jr. and all nine of his siblings lived into adulthood. Edward Jr. married Nancy Kukel, who bore him ten children.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Built in 1855, Both the walls and the foundation are brick, while the gabled roof is asphalt. Five bays wide in the front, the two-story residence features a porch in the middle of its first story; the main entrance and one window on each side face the porch. Inside, important components include walnut-wood trim, a simple early stairway, and doorways with stencilwork. In 1875, the house was expanded with the construction of a vernacular Victorian addition, thus making the house a leading example of transitional 19th-century architecture in the area.</p><br>
<h2>Preservation</h2><br>
<p>The house and several outbuildings compose a farmstead unique in the area for its high degree of preservation from the middle of the 19th century. Two of them, the barn and the smokehouse, are original to the property and have experienced few changes; built of wood, they are important as surviving examples of early construction methods and lifeways for farmers in the area. The farmstead&#39;s integrity is such that it has received national recognition: in late 1987, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its architecture.</p><br>
<p>The Jacob Light House is a historic residence in the city of Washington Court House, Ohio, United States. Once home to a prominent local craftsman, it has been designated a historic site as a well-preserved example of the Italianate style of architecture.</p><br>
<p>With the coming of multiple railroad lines, Washington Court House became an increasingly important center of commerce in the third quarter of the nineteenth century. Among those attracted to the city was Jacob Light, a tailor who had established himself as a regional merchant. Light purchased from Mills Gardner a sizeable lot south of the city&#39;s downtown on 10 May 1875, and by the beginning of June, he had commenced the construction of the present house. Built of brick on a stone foundation and covered with a slate roof, the L-shaped house is a distinctive example of the Italianate style. Among its prominent architectural components are the shallow hip roof, the front porch and its handcarven support beams, the shutters and pediments of the windows, and the brackets supporting the cornice. Particularly significant are the porch supports, which demonstrate the extent to which local woodcarving had progressed during the nineteenth century.</p><br>
<p>After sixty-one years of ownership, Jacob Light&#39;s family sold the house in 1936. Later owners preserved the house with few changes; more than fifty years later, it remained a good example of the Italianate style, of which just twenty other houses remained in the city by the late 1980s. In early 1988, the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its historically significant architecture.</p><br>
<p>The Ottawa Library is a Carnegie library located at the intersection of 5th and Main Streets in Ottawa, Kansas. Built in 1973, the library housed the collection of the Ottawa Library Association, which was founded in 1873. The Carnegie Foundation provided a $15,000 grant toward the librarys construction. George P. Washburn, a prominent Kansas architect who lived in Ottawa, designed the library in a free classical style. The two-story yellow brick building has a limestone foundation and a hipped roof. The buildings main entrance has a two-story portico with classical ornamentation, and the rear features a hemicycle.</p><br>
<p>The library was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 1, 1980. It is also part of the Historic Ottawa Central Business District, which is also listed on the National Register. The building no longer serves as Ottawa&#39;s library (which is now located in the downtown area), and now serves as an art and culture center.</p><br>

<p>The Wigwam is a landmark home, of cape cod style, built in 1790, close to the Appomattox River near Lodore on Rt. 637, in Amelia County, Virginia. Virginia Governor William Branch Giles  built the house and made it his home until his death.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The original 18th-century building included only the back section, with the more formal front being added in 1818. There is some information that the front section was originally relocated from the John Royall estate, called Caxamelalea. However, experts from Williamsburg have refuted this based upon their inspection of the house. It has 18 rooms and at one time had 5 full baths. There are 4 chimneys that serve 13 fireplaces, and 65 windows, 17 of which are dormers. One room in the basement appears to have been used to hold Yankee prisoners in the American Civil War; the room has a barred window and evidence of shackles on the wall.</p><br>
<p>In 1832, Giles son conveyed the Wigwam to William Henry Harrison (cousin of the president by that name.) Harrison, with his wife Lucy (née Powers), raised six children there, and established a school for boys in the home named Amelia Academy. The Christian school was run, principally, to prepare its students for entrance to the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. The schools 1859–1860 flyer indicated a census of 25 pupils, and the school&#39;s board members included John Hartwell Cocke.</p><br>
<p>In his final years running the school, William Henry was assisted by his eldest son, J. Hartwell Harrison, who later phased out the school and made the Wigwam his home with wife Anna (née Carrington) and their six children. After his return from the Civil War, Hartwell farmed the property and became the areas local Baptist minister. The devastating effects of the Long Depression ultimately resulted in a mortgage default in 1896, and the familys eviction from the home by Hartwells brother-in-law, Lewis Harvie Blair. In the mid 1900s, the property was owned and renovated by Hartwell&#39;s son, Robert N. Harrison.</p><br>
<p>The Wigwam was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1969.</p><br>

<p>138 Mary Street, Brisbane is a heritage-listed wine and spirits storehouse in Mary Street, Brisbane CBD, Queensland, Australia. It was built in about 1901 for Perkins Brewery . It is also known as Buzzards and Perkins Wine & Spirit Store. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>This building was erected for Perkins Brewery. Brisbane&#39;s first brewery, the City Brewery was established in Mary Street in the 1860s. In 1972, the City Brewery was bought by Toowoomba brewers Patrick and Thomas Perkins. The business expanded rapidly under their control, and by the 1880s occupied a large portion of land between Mary and Margaret Streets. The Perkins complex, particularly the six-storeyed brewing tower, dominated this part of the city.</p><br>
<p>The need for increased space prompted the purchase of 138 Mary Street in 1899. By 1902 Perkins & Co had erected a building on the site which they used as a Wine & Spirit store. This building was probably to a design of Richard Gailey as he had worked on other buildings for the Perkins company.</p><br>
<p>In 1928, Perkins merged with another prominent Brisbane brewing firm to form Castlemaine Perkins Ltd and from that time the Perkins operations were gradually moved from the city to the Castlemaine site at Milton. In 1937, fire severely damaged the main Perkins complex opposite. Only this building, and the former stables at 124 Mary Street, survive from what was once a large inner city industrial complex. In 1943, the building was sold to Alfred Lawrence & Co Ltd, manufacturing chemists. Alfred Lawrence & Co Ltd retained ownership of the building until 1977.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The storehouse is a small commercial building and store located at 138 Mary Street nearby to Perkins Stables and Mooneys Building with Harolds Marine and Charlotte House behind.</p><br>
<p>A single level brick building has a stone basement half exposed at footpath level. Its facade has been rendered and painted a cream colour. The facade is divided into two nearly identical symmetrical portions each with three major arched openings. The middle opening of each portion is slightly wider than the other openings and above them are triangular pediments at parapet level supported on moulded brackets. The facade treatment to the plinth is rendered and coursed to resemble ashlar. A string course runs across between the openings at the springing level of the arches. The semi-circular arches have moulded surrounds and keystones. A dentilled cornice line runs below the parapet in line with the base of the triangular pediments. The original entry is in the centre of the eastern bay and two new entries have been placed in the facade to match the original opening. Laneways run down both sides of the building and there are a series of square headed openings down each side to take advantage of natural light. At the rear a plain brick L-shape building forms a courtyard with the back of the front building. This would seem to be a later addition (before 1913) having shallow broad arched brick openings. The connecting narrow part of the building has a loading bay at first floor level.</p><br>
<p>Internally, the front building has some stonework visible in the basement but upstairs has been refurbished. Much of the original floor structure of the rear building is visible from the basement level.</p><br>

<p>Mooneys Building is a heritage-listed warehouse at 130-132 Mary Street, Brisbane City, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was designed by Francis Drummond Greville Stanley and built in 1883 by James S Martin. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 22 June 1993.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>This warehouse was erected in 1883 for William Mooney, a Brisbane wholesale and retail tobacconist. Designed by former Queensland Colonial Architect Francis Drummond Greville Stanley, it was constructed by J S Martin for approximately &pound;3,000.</p><br>
<p>In 1891, the building was transferred to William Perry (of Perry Bros, ironmongers), who died soon after the change of ownership, and for more than twenty years the property remained in Perry&#39;s trust estate. In 1901, manufacturing chemists Taylor & Colledge occupied the building. From 1908 to 1919 the building was tenanted by John M Mooney a crockery, cutlery, glassware and general merchant. In August 1919, the Australian Government purchased the building from the Perry estate trustees for &pound;6,500. At the time the building was described as:an old but substantial building in good condition. There is no ceiling or lining and the walls of stone and heavy beams and posts of ironbark are exposed.Since mid-1915 the Australian Government had been planning a repatriation scheme for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers expected to return from World War I. Newly-formed state war councils, such as the Queensland War Council, were charged with various responsibilities aimed at settling returned soldiers into peace-time occupations. The permanent body responsible for soldier resettlement, the Repatriation Department, was formed in April 1918, and the Queensland Branch moved into Mooneys Building in the following year. The branch administered soldier employment, training for trades, medical and general assistance to soldiers as well as provision of welfare to soldiers and/or families of soldiers killed or incapacitated.</p><br>
<p>The Repatriation Department remained in the building until the 1950s. The building was subsequently occupied by another defence authority, the Recruiting Directorate. In 1980, the property was sold again.</p><br>

<p>Mooneys Building is a two-storeyed stone building with a basement. It adjoins Perkins Stables and a laneway between 138 Mary Street and has Charlotte House and Harrolds Marine located behind addressing Charlotte Street.</p><br>
<p>The building is divided into two symmetrical portions that reflect the original subdivision of land. The rendered facade is designed with restrained moulded Italianate detailing of predominantly horizontal banding. The facade is divided horizontally by a string course and vertically by pilasters. There are three arched openings on both levels of each section. Decorative elements include architraves, pilasters, keystones, horizontal mouldings, rosettes, ornamental urns and triangular pediments centrally placed in the parapet.</p><br>
<p>The side and rear walls of the building are unrendered porphyry (Brisbane Tuff) with some sandstone. Openings appear to have been made to the laneway on both levels. At the rear, the gable roof forms of both portions of the building are clearly expressed. All but one of the upper level openings have been changed; however the original brick archways for the openings remain.</p><br>
<p>Internally the building retains much of its post-and-beam timber structure, with floors supported by timber joists separated by herring-bone strutting. The roof structure is exposed timber trusses. The interior of the building otherwise incorporates modern office partitioning.</p><br>

<p>169 Mary Street is a heritage-listed warehouse at 169 Mary Street , Brisbane CBD, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was designed by Richard Gailey and built from 1887 to 1888 by T Game. It is also known as Coal Board Building. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>This three-storeyed masonry warehouse was erected in 1887-1888 for Queensland pastoralists and politicians William Allan, MLA and William Graham, MLC.</p><br>
<p>The land was granted first to John Balfour in 1852. In 1885 the property was transferred to William Allan, then in 1887 he was joined by William Graham as tenants in common. Both Allan and Graham came from Edinburgh originally, and had a number of business interests in common, including sitting on the first board of the Royal Bank of Queensland, established in 1885, and were closely associated with BD Morehead & Co. An expansion of commercial and building activity in Brisbane in the 1880s transformed the streets around lower Edward Street, which were close to the wharves along the town reach of the Brisbane River, into a warehouse precinct. Built as an investment, Allans and Grahams warehouse reflects this development phase, and remains one of a small group of late Victorian warehouses surviving in Brisbane. Other comparable buildings include the Metro Arts Building (1890), Spencers Building (1890) and the Brisbane and Area Water Board Building (1886) in Edward Street, Charlotte House (1888) in Charlotte Street, Watson Brothers Building (1887) in Margaret Street, and Tara House (1878) and Heckelmanns Building (1891) in Elizabeth Street.</p><br>
<p>In January 1887, architect Richard Gailey called tenders for the erection of a warehouse at the corner of Edward and Mary Streets. Constructed by Brisbane contractor T Game at a cost of £4,295, the building was completed in 1888. First leased by J & B Sniders, importers of china and glass, the warehouse was subsequently used by McMurtie & Co. (boot manufacturers), and a variety of produce and leather merchants, engineers, hardware suppliers and saddlers&#39; ironmongers.</p><br>
<p>From 1900 to 1914 the property was owned by the Gibson family of Bingera Plantation, near Bundaberg, and between 1928 and 1960 was owned and occupied by Mauri Brothers and Thomson Ltd. The property was purchased by the Commissioner of Main Roads in 1960 and transferred to the Crown in 1968. Since then the building has been used as offices for the Queensland Government and community groups.</p><br>

<p>Naldham House is a heritage-listed office building located at 193 Mary Street, Brisbane CBD, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was built from 1864 to 1889. It is also known as AUSN House. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was built initially in 1864, extended in the late 1870s, but substantially rebuilt in 1889 for the Australian United Steam Navigation Company. It served for almost a century as a shipping office. In 1988 major external and internal alternations were carried out in converting the building into premises for a club.</p><br>
<p>The site, adjacent to the Brisbane River, was acquired by the Australasian Steam Navigation Company (ASN) in March 1852 although the company did not construct wharves until 1859 the company&#39;s first wharf had been erected on the new site followed by a second wharf near Eagle Street in 1861.</p><br>
<p>In 1864 a two-storeyed office was erected and occupied by Henry OReilly, the ASNs Brisbane agent. This building was situated on the northern (tower) end of the present Naldham House. In 1877 the ASN&#39;s Brisbane office was elevated from agency to branch status, and at some time between 1875 and 1878 the office building was extended to the Felix Street corner.</p><br>
<p>In the mid 1880s the ASN was taken over and amalgamated with several other shipping companies to form the Australasian United Steam Navigation Company (AUSN) which became a dominant force in Queensland and Australian shipping.</p><br>
<p>In August 1888 architects McCredie Bros & Chambers called tenders for the extension of the Felix Street offices of the AUSN. The successful tenderer was J R Locke of Redfern, Sydney. At a cost of &pound;11,000 the upper storey was demolished and two new floors were added, a tower and cupola built into the northern end, a balcony included in the Mary Street side and new entrances formed.</p><br>
<p>In 1914, MacDonald Hamilton & Co became agents for AUSN and instigated internal renovations (c. 1915-20), including silky oak panelling on the first floor. They were also responsible for the change of the name to Naldham House which was the firm&#39;s telex address, derived from a subset of their name MacDonald Hamilton. This firm was an agent for a number of shipping, insurance and trading companies, including the Australasian United Steam Navigation Company.</p><br>
<p>MacDonald Hamilton & Co managed AUSN activities until the winding up of the AUSN in 1960. They carried out further internal renovations and a new entrance to Mary Street was constructed. The firm remained in the building until 1986.</p><br>
<p>In 1988-1889 major alterations and additions were undertaken as part of the incorporation of the building in the new riverside development, Waterfront Place. This work included the demolition of the adjacent bond store and the replicates details of the Mary Street facade on the previously blank eastern wall, which has now become the main entrance facade.</p><br>
<p>In 1994, Naldham House was purchased for $3.2 million by the Brisbane Polo Club, who operated the building as a private club and conference centre. In May 2015, the club was facing debts and decided to wind up, after accepting an unsolicited offer of $10 million from Singapore developer and hotelier Koh Wee Meng.</p><br>
<p>In January 2016, Dexus Property Group (owners of Waterfront Place) purchased Naldham House for $14 million as a strategic acquisition, describing it as "the front door of the Waterfront Place precinct".</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Naldham House, located on the corner of Mary and Felix Street, is a three storeyed rendered brick building with basement. The building forms a thin rectangle in plan form with the tower being located at the river end. Redevelopment of the adjacent site has now removed the visual link with the river.</p><br>
<p>The principal facade is to Mary Street and contains a colonnade on the ground and first floors. The detailing on the facade is a free adaptation of classical detailing, with ascending orders on succeeding levels.</p><br>
<p>On the first floor there are paired fluted pilasters without capitals. The colonnade at this level has paired columns with stylised Ionic capitals. The window openings on the second floor are large and have semi-circular arched heads. Between these openings are paired pilasters with one large Corinthian capital that extends across the top of both. Above the capitals is a plain frieze, a cornice and a parapet composed of Italianate balusters. The narrow northern facade has the date "1888" on the upper frieze.</p><br>
<p>The most distinctive feature of the building is the octagonal tower with cupola at the river end. The cupola, tower end and street facades of the building are intact.</p><br>
<p>The eastern facade, which now contains the main entrance, incorporates classical detail. The date "1988" appears below the cornice. The building has been refurbished internally. The interior including a new staircase was constructed in the manner of a late nineteenth century colonial club.</p><br>

<p>The Glebe, also known as Minor Hall, is a historic Glebe House located near Amherst, Amherst County, Virginia. The original section, now the rear ell, was built about 1762, with the two-story, five-bay main block dated to about 1825. Other additions are the kitchen wing, added about 1919; two porches attached to the south and east elevations and added about 1937; and the laundry room wing, built in the second half of the 20th century. Also on the property are the contributing garage , tool shed , and site of a 20th-century barn. It was built by the Reverend Ichabod Camp, the only Anglican minister to serve Amherst Parish and the only Anglican minister to occupy The Glebe while it was owned by Amherst Parish between 1762 and 1780.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.</p><br>
<p>Tusculum was a historic home located near Amherst in Amherst County, Virginia, United States. It was a two-story Georgian and Federal style frame house built in two principal phases. The north section was built possibly as early as the 1750s, with the south section added about 1805. It sat on a brick and stone foundation and was covered in beaded weatherboard siding. The house was acquired by the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities in 2003. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.</p><br>
<p>Tusculum was once owned by Elijah Fletcher, whose daughter, Indiana Fletcher Williams, was the founder of Sweet Briar College; it was the childhood home of her mother, Maria Crawford. The college collaborated with the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities to purchase the house for preservation, and in 2006 it was carefully dismantled, and removed to a dairy barn on the college campus. Plans were announced, in 2008, to re-erect the house on land behind Sweet Briar House and turn it into a center for community history and outreach. However, the cost of renovation proved to be too great, and in 2013 it was decided to offer the home for sale, with stipulations as to the manner in which it could be restored. In 2014 the home was purchased by a local couple who announced plans to rebuild it at Forks of Buffalo, around eight miles from its original location in the vicinity of Clifford.</p><br>
<p>The Tusculum Institute at Sweet Briar College, dedicated to the discussion and preservation of local history and the support and teaching of historic preservation, takes its name from the house.</p><br>
<p>Mountain View Farm, also known as Spencer Plantation and Mountain View Farm at Rebec Vineyards, is a historic home and farm located near Clifford, Amherst County, Virginia. The property includes an 18th-century mansion, built about 1777, a 19th-century cottage and five other supporting buildings. The main house is a standard timber frame, two-story, three bay, I-house with a rear ell addition. It is sheathed in weatherboard with end chimneys. It was moved to its present site in 1831. The cottage is a one room building with a lean-to shed addition. It was originally used as a doctor&#39;s office by Dr. Paul Carrington Cabell, and probably dates to the 1830s or 40s. Also on the property are the contributing well house, a playhouse , a smokehouse, an ice house, carriage house, and a chicken coop. The property has been home to Rebec Vineyards since 1987.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.</p><br>
<p>Chiqllarasu  Portugueza or Portuguesa is a mountain in the Andes of Peru, about 5,167 m high. It is situated in the Ayacucho Region, Cangallo Province, Paras District. Chiqllarasu lies north-east of the mountain Saywa Q&#39;asa, between the villages Patawasi  in the northwest and Kichkawasi  in the southeast.</p><br>
<p>Chiqllarasu lies on the top of the crest of the Western Cordillera. It features a 7 x wide caldera, known as the Cerro Sagollan caldera. Within the 800 m thick deposits gold and silver have been found. These are epithermal deposits with low sulfide content. The caldera was formed on a central volcano which erupted andesite and dacite. This edifice originally reached a diameter of 30 km or more, and contained lava domes and short lava flows, which are most recognizable on the eastern side of the volcano. The Rio Apacheta and the Rio Quichcahuasi drain the edifice.</p><br>
<p>The Atunsulla tuff is formed by many flows of rhyolite which contain clasts and pumice. It advanced as much as 40 km along the Rio Cachi, reaching the Ayacucho basin. The river has eroded deep into the tuff, which has been removed in many places by erosion. Initially its volume may have been about 50 km3. This volcano may be underpinned by a large batholit.</p><br>
<p>Samples from the pre-Atunsulla tuff volcano have been dated at 4-3.5 million years ago. The Atunsulla tuff was erupted from Chiqllarasu around 2.4 million years ago. A long break in volcanic activity, during which the edifice was deeply eroded, may have occurred before this eruption. A resurgent dome formed 1.9 million years ago. Hydrothermal activity occurred both before and after the eruption of the Atunsulla tuff, and the mineralization occurred 1.9 million years ago, This volcano is among the youngest in a Central Peru volcanic chain; hot water indicate that the geothermal system may be still active.</p><br>
