<p>The Jeremiah Hutchins Tavern is a historic former tavern on United States Route 302 in northwestern Bath, New Hampshire. The two story hip-roofed wood frame building, now a private residence, was built c. 1794, and is the best-preserved transitional Georgian-Federal building in the town. Jeremiah Hutchins was one of Bath&#39;s early settlers, and he and his descendants were leading citizens of the town. The building is roughly square, with a kitchen ell extending from one side. It originally had entrances on the north and south facades, but that on the north side has been closed up and a bathroom placed in its stead. The south entrance is recessed, and the door is flanked by sidelight windows and topped by a transom window. Much of the original interior finish work has been preserved.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.</p><br>
<p>Jerwan is a locality north of Mosul in the Nineveh Province of Iraq. The site is clear of vegetation and is sparsely settled.</p><br>
<p>The site is famous for the ruins of an enormous aqueduct crossing the Khenis River, constructed of more than two million dressed stones and using stone arches and waterproof cement. Some consider it to be the world&#39;s oldest aqueduct, predating anything the Romans built by five centuries.</p><br>
<h2>The Aqueduct of Jerwan</h2><br>
<p>The aqueduct is part of the larger Atrush Canal built by the Assyrian king Sennacherib between 703 and 690BC to water Ninevah&#39;s extensive gardens, with water diverted from Khenis gorge, 50km to the north.</p><br>
<p>An inscription on the Aqueduct reads:</p><br>

<p>Smith Island is an island located in Spencer Gulf off the east coast of Jussieu Peninsula on Eyre Peninsula in South Australia approximately 32 km south-east of Port Lincoln. It was named by Matthew Flinders in memory of William Smith who was one of the eight crew lost from a cutter that capsized sometime after being launched from HM Sloop Investigator to search for water on 21 February 1802. Since 2004, the island has been part of the Memory Cove Wilderness Protection Area.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Smith Island is approximately 32 km south-east of Port Lincoln, 2.8 km south of Lewis Island and 1.8 km east of Cape Catastrophe. The island has an area of 4 hectare and a maximum height of 22 m above sea level. Access to the island is limited by the absence of a coastline sheltered from swells and tidal streams.</p><br>
<h2>Formation, geology and oceanography</h2><br>
<p>Smith Island was formed about 9100 years ago when sea levels rose at the start of the Holocene.</p><br>
<p>The island consists of a granite outcrop rising from the seabed to a flat-topped capping of calcarenite which is covered by ‘an unusually thick blanket of soil, thinning only to outcropping calcrete’ at the perimeter of the capping.</p><br>
<p>Below the water’s surface, the island rises from a depth of 30 m within only 180 m of its west, south and east shorelines.</p><br>
<h2>Flora and fauna</h2><br>
<h3>Terrestrial plants</h3><br>
<p>As of 1996, a total of 23 species have been identified. Most of this diversity is confined to the thinner soils at the perimeter of the calcarenite capping. The deeper soil was occupied by marsh saltbush with the deepest soils supporting grey saltbush.</p><br>
<h3>Terrestrial animals</h3><br>
<p>Short-tailed shearwaters and white-faced storm petrels nest in burrows excavated within the soil on the island’s calcarenite cap.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The island was one of several first sighted by Europeans on Saturday, 20 February 1802, from HMS Investigator whilst under the command of Matthew Flinders entered what is now Spencer Gulf.</p><br>
<p>Flinders named the island on Wednesday, 24 February 1802, in memory of William Smith who lost his life, presumably drowned, along with seven other members of the crew on Sunday 21 February 1802 when one of HMS Investigator’s cutters capsized near Cape Catastrophe.</p><br>

<p>The Woodsville Opera Building is a historic commercial and performance building at 67 Central Street in Woodsville, New Hampshire, the commercial center of the town of Haverhill. The three story brick building occupies a prominent location in the business district; its most distinctive feature, a four story clock tower at the corner of Central and Court Streets, makes it a local landmark. It has Romanesque Revival and Panel Brick styling, and was built in 1890 by E. B. Mann and the Woodsville Opera Building Society. The building includes a performing venue that seats 600, and was for many years a center of civic life in the community, hosting high school graduations, proms, and other events. Portions of the building have been converted to affordable housing.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<p>Thayer&#39;s Hotel is a historic hotel building at 136 Main Street in downtown Littleton, New Hampshire. The story wood frame building was built in 1843, and was a precursor of the grand resort hotels that were later built in northern New Hampshire. It is a prominent structure in downtown Littleton, with a Greek temple front that has three story Doric columns supporting a full entablature and frieze. It has a steeply pitched gable roof with seven gable dormers piercing each side of the roof, and is topped by a cupola. It has served as a backdrop for political rallies, and parts of its architecture were sought by Henry Ford for his museum of Americana in the 1930s.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>The Anthony–Kinney Farm is an historic farm and resort complex at 505 Point Judith Road in Narragansett, Rhode Island. The property, now a town-owned recreation area known as Sunset Farm, saw agricultural use for over 300 years, and was converted into a private resort around the turn of the 20th century. The Point Judith area was among the first in Rhode Island to be purchased from the local Narragansett people, in 1657. The farm was acquired by James E. Anthony in 1850, who sold it to Francis Kinney in 1897. Kinney maintained much of the land in agricultural use, but built an extravagant resort complex, including a distinctive East Indian bungalow as a clubhouse, and built a private nine-hole golf course. Kinney died in 1908, and the property was owned by the Chase family until 1991, when most of it was purchased by the town. It is managed by the town as an active farm, and the restored clubhouse is available for rent as function space.</p><br>
<p>The farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>The David S. Baker Estate, also known as Cedar Spring Farm, consists of a pair of related properties at 51 and 67 Prospect Street in the Wickford village of North Kingstown, Rhode Island. Both houses were built by David Sherman Baker, a prominent local lawyer and contender for statewide offices. The older of the two houses, 51 Prospect Avenue, is a story mansard-roofed that is modest in size by decorated in fairly elaborated Italianate and Second Empire styling. The house at 67 Prosect is much larger story construction, with a story tower and front veranda, again in eclectic Second Empire style. It is one of the largest houses in Wickford, and was referred to by the family as the "Big House". It is unclear whether Baker built the Big House to accommodate his growing family, or as a venue for functions that were part of his political and social activities.</p><br>
<p>The properties were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>

<p>Lewis Island is an island located in Spencer Gulf off the east coast of Jussieu Peninsula on Eyre Peninsula in South Australia approximately 29 km south-east of Port Lincoln. It was named by Matthew Flinders in memory of George Lewis who was one of the eight crew lost from a cutter that capsized sometime after being launched from the HM Sloop Investigator to search for water on 21 February 1802. Since 2004, the island has been part of the Memory Cove Wilderness Protection Area.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Lewis Island is located approximately 29 km south-east of Port Lincoln, 926 m south of Little Island and 2.8 km north of Smith Island. The island has a maximum height of 44 m above sea level. Access is possible by boat on the island’s north east coast during calm weather subject to tidal conditions, particularly in the channel separating it from Little Island.</p><br>
<h2>Formation, geology and oceanography</h2><br>
<p>Lewis Island was formed about 8400 years ago when sea levels rose at the start of the Holocene. The island’s structure consists of granite outcrop finished with a capping of calcarenite. Unlike the neighbouring islands, the island’s cap finishes in a peak at its southern end rather in lieu of a flat plateau.</p><br>
<h2>Flora and fauna</h2><br>
<h3>Terrestrial plants</h3><br>
<p>As of 1996, the island was dominated by a shrubland of marsh saltbush on its deeper soil. It also supported at least 19 other species including sea celery, karkalla, grey samphire, Australian hollyhock, native juniper, austral stork&#39;s bill and pointed twinleaf. Disturbance of the island’s surface by guano mining was suggested as the opportunity for weeds, particularly the African box thorn, to spread onto the island.</p><br>
<h3>Terrestrial animals</h3><br>
<p>As of 1996, a breeding colony of white-faced storm petrels was present on the higher southern section of the island. Also, the presence of "relatively high number" of silver gulls and Pacific gulls also suggested the possibility of the island being a breeding site for these species. Black-faced shags were also observed roosting at the island’s water line. Reptiles are represented by marbled geckos, four-toed earless skinks and bull skink.</p><br>
<h3>Marine animals</h3><br>
<p>As of 1996, observations of burrows immediately below the island’s calcarenite capping suggests that it may have supported a colony of little penguins. As of 2007, a breeding population of Australian sea lions is reported to be present on the island.</p><br>

<p>The Covington County Courthouse and Jail is a historic courthouse in Andalusia, the seat of Covington County, Alabama. It was built from 1914–1916 along with a jail. Together, the buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The 1916 courthouse is the fifth to serve Covington County. The fourth courthouse was built of brick in 1896 in the center of Courthouse Square (which sits in front of the current courthouse). When the Central of Georgia Railway reached Andalusia in 1899, followed shortly by the Alabama and Florida Railroad, the town saw massive growth; population rose from 270 at the 1890 census to 2,480 by 1910. Having outgrown the prior courthouse, construction on a new courthouse began in 1914 and was completed in 1916. A jail was built behind the courthouse.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<h3>Courthouse</h3><br>
<p>The courthouse is designed in a Beaux-Arts style, common among public buildings in the early 20th century. The original portion of the building is rectangular and built of combed granite. Two wings were built onto the rear of the building, which were later enclosed in the middle.</p><br>
<p>At the center of the façade is a hexastyle portico with Corinthian columns supporting a denticulated triangular pediment. A medallion with a clock adorns the pediment. Three entry doors, since replaced with modern medal-frame doors, are separated by Corinthian pilasters and topped with a simple lintel. The doors are flanked by semi-domed niches. On the second floor, three sets of three stacked windows sit above the entry.</p><br>
<p>Windows on the front of the building outside the portico are sets of three one-over-one double-hung windows on each floor. The second floor windows each have decorative sills, and relief panels sit below. Windows on the east and west sides of the building, including the wing additions, have only two windows per set. Entries are finished similarly to the front, Corinthian pilasters supporting a bracketed cornice.</p><br>
<p>The interior is centered on an octagonal atrium, with floors of white marble and walls of grey marble with gold leaf accents. A Y-shaped staircase at the rear of the atrium leads to a second floor gallery and offices.</p><br>
<h3>Jail</h3><br>
<p>The jail is a two-story, T-shaped, red brick structure with Italianate details. It features a parapet roof with a bracketed eave, simulating a mansard roof. Quoins on the building corners, dentils between the brackets, and decorative green and white tile panels provide ornamentation to the building. The main entry, facing the rear of the courthouse, is on a porch treated similarly to the rest of the building.</p><br>
<p>The Kelly Field Historic District is located in southwestern San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas. It is the center portion of the base, east of the runways. The boundaries of the 1600 buildings are Billy Mitchell Road on the north, Wagner on the east, England on the south and S. Frank Luke Drive on the west. The 1700 block of officer quarters are bounded on the north by Chennault Street, the east and south by Chennault Circle, and Van Nostrand Drive on the west. The historic district contains 58 contributing and non-contributing buildings, structures, objects and sites, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.</p><br>
<p>Camp Kelly was established on May 7, 1917 to be a US Army training facility for pilots and support staff during World War I. The first airplanes arrived on April 5, and on April 6 the United States declared war on Germany. The increased training activities necessitated more facilities and the acquisition of additional land. The original field became Kelly Field No. 1. The new facilities became Kelly Field No. 2. Military cut-backs followed the 1918 Armistice with Germany, and the two facilities ceased training pilots but functioned as supply depots. The two fields were re-designated in 1925 as Duncan Field (Kelly No. 1) and Kelly Field (Kelly No. 2). The latter included the Air Service Advanced Flying School where Charles Lindbergh earned his wings, graduating first in his class on March 14, 1925.</p><br>
<p>In 1926, the Army Air Corps Act authorized a 5-year period of expansion to begin July 1, 1927. As a result, both Kelly No. 1 and No. 2 began being developed as permanent aviator training facilities. In 1995, the United States government began realignment of military facilities. Kelly was closed in 2001, partially combined with Lackland Air Force Base. The remainder was taken over by the Greater Kelly Development Authority of the state of Texas and redeveloped as a commercial and military industrial center.</p><br>

<p>Lovetts by Lafayette Brook, or Lovetts Inn, is a historic farmstead and inn on Profile Road in Franconia, New Hampshire, United States. It is one of a few surviving 19th century hostelries in the state. The structure is estimated to have been built around 1820 by Nicholas Powers, one of the first settlers of the area. It consists of a pair of story Cape style buildings that have been joined, offset by about 12 ft. It was originally a farmhouse, but was converted for use as an inn in 1928, after fires devastated a number of the area hotels. Around that time, shed dormers were added to both sides of each roof line. Further additions in the 1950s-60s added more kitchen and dining space. The grounds include a number of guest cabins, as well as an old barn that has also been adapted for guest use.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>The J. D. Holman House is a historic residence in Ozark, Alabama. One of the most elaborate Neoclassical homes in the Wiregrass Region, it was built in 1912–13 for Jesse DeCosta Holman, a prominent local merchant. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Holman, a native of Ozark, began in the livestock business in the 1890s by selling a mule belonging to his father. The business flourished, and allowed him to invest in other enterprises, including a cotton mill (one of the first in Southeast Alabama) and a Buick dealership.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1912–1913 at a cost of around $75,000. Following Holman&#39;s death in 1960, it remained in the family until 1982, when it was purchased by Jack Mizell for $120,000. The city of Ozark purchased the house in 2013 for $296,000.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The Holman House is a two-story structure, measuring about 62 feet (19 meters) square. It was designed in a Neoclassical style by Montgomery architect C. Frank Galliher.</p><br>
<p>Two identical porticos are centered on the front and west elevations, facing Broad and Mutual Streets. Four Corinthian columns support a triangular pediment and entablature. An elaborately outlined oval window adorns the center of the pediment. The main entry is surrounded by a latticed transom and sidelights, which are flanked by pilasters with capitals that match the main columns. Above the main entrance is a balcony with wrought iron railings, which features a door with similar transom and sidelights as that below. The portico is framed by pilasters against the house which match the main columns.</p><br>
<p>A wrap-around porch stretches around the west, south (front), and east sides of the house. On the front elevation, French windows with fanlights on either side of the portico open onto the porch. Casement windows with lattice lights above sit on the second story above the French windows. On the east side, there are two French windows with casements above and a porte-cochère below a small balcony. Windows on the west elevation are one-over-one double-hung sash windows, except for casements on a sleeping porch off the rear of the house.</p><br>
<p>The interior of the house is laid out with a central hall with two bedrooms and a library on one side, and a dining room and salon on the other. A mantel in the library features reliefs of a horse and a mule, emblematic of Holman&#39;s early business. The stairwell at the end of the hall is flanked by Corinthian columns. The second floor corresponds to the first, with a central hall between three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a dressing room, and access to the sleeping porch.</p><br>
<p>Hopkins Island is an island located in Spencer Gulf off the east coast of Jussieu Peninsula on Eyre Peninsula in South Australia approximately 32 km south-east of Port Lincoln. It was named by Matthew Flinders in memory of John Hopkins who was one of the eight crew lost from a cutter that capsized on 21 February 1802. Since 2004, the island has been part of the Memory Cove Wilderness Protection Area.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Hopkins Island is located approximately 32 km south-east of Port Lincoln and 1.3 km west of Carrington Point, on the west coast of Thistle Island. The island is triangular in plan with its long axis being approximately 1,900 m and it maximum width being about 950 m. Its long axis is aligned in a north-east direction, similar to that of the north-west coast of Thistle Island. The island has an area of 162 hectareand has a maximum height of 69 m near its south west end. Access by boat is possible at the small beach on the island’s north coast.</p><br>
<h2>Formation, geology and oceanography</h2><br>
<p>Hopkins Island was formed about 7000 years ago after sea levels rose at the start of the Holocene. The island has a perimeter consisting of granite over which ‘a flat upper plateau’ of calcarenite sits and which supports ‘a thick soil bed’. The island rises from the seabed at 30 m from within 200 m of its north west coast while the same transition occurs over a distance of almost 600 m on its south coast. On its north east coast, the passage between the island and Thistle Island is relatively shallow with a maximum charted depth of 11 m due to both islands sharing the same geological base strata.</p><br>
<h2>Flora and fauna</h2><br>
<h3>Plants</h3><br>
<p>As of 1996, a shrubland dominated by marsh saltbush grows in the deeper soil present on most of the upper platform. tussock grass and nitre bush is present in locations where thinner soils lying over underlying ridges of rock. heath bluebush dominates the thinner exposed soils on the island’s perimeter. Weed species were represented by African box thorn, common iceplant, and grasses such as red brome and rat&#39;s-tail fescue. It was suggested that these weed species have been successful due to various attempts to develop a pasture on the island suitable for grazing.</p><br>
<h3>Terrestrial animals</h3><br>
<p>The short-tailed shearwater was reported in 1996 as being the dominant animal species on the island with an estimated population of ‘69700 adult birds in 34800 burrows.’ Other species observed at the time include the bush rat and the black tiger snake.</p><br>
<h3>Marine animals</h3><br>
<p>Australian sea lions use the beach on the island’s north west coast as a haul out site.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The island was one of several first sighted by Europeans on Saturday, 20 February 1802, from HMS Investigator whilst under the command of Matthew Flinders entered what is now Spencer Gulf.</p><br>
<p>Flinders named the island on Wednesday, 24 February 1802, in memory of John Hopkins who lost his life, presumably drowned, along with seven other members of the crew on Sunday 21 February 1802 when one of the HMS Investigator’s cutters capsized near Cape Catastrophe.</p><br>

<h3>Guano</h3><br>
<p>Hopkins Island is one of the island sites from which guano was mined under licence from the South Australian Government prior to 1919.</p><br>
<h3>Tourism</h3><br>
<p>Hopkins Island is notable as a venue to see, swim and snorkel with Australian sea lions.</p><br>
<h2>Protected areas status</h2><br>
<p>Since 30 September 2004, Hopkins Island has been part of the Memory Cove Wilderness Protection Area. Previously, it had been part of the Lincoln National Park. It originally obtained protected area status as a fauna reserve under the former Fauna Conservation Act 1964 in 1965.</p><br>
<p>Krasnoyarsk Reservoir, known also as the Krasnoyarsk Sea, is an artificial lake which was created by the construction of the Krasnoyarsk Dam. It is one of the largest artificial reservoirs in the world. In Russia, it now ranks second .</p><br>
<p>The top point of the reservoir is located near the town of Abakan, at the confluence of the Yenisei river Abakan. Lower spot - Krasnoyarsk hydroelectric power station dam. The distance from the top point to the Krasnoyarsk hydroelectric power station on the line - about 250 kilometers, but the total length of the reservoir is much more - 388 kilometers. Width at widest points is 15 kilometers. Height of the water&#39;s edge - 243 meters above sea level.</p><br>
<p>In the reservoir flow some pretty major rivers, including the right bank - Tuba, Sisim, Syda, on the left - Biryusa. At the confluence of the rivers flow directly into the previously Yenisei, creating reservoirs formed bays. The most significant of them - Tubin, Syda, Karasug, Sisim, Durbin, Biryusinsk.</p><br>
<p>The largest settlements located on the shore of the reservoir are regional centers Abakan, Krasnoturansk (located on the Bay Syda) and Novoselovo. Bridges over the reservoir absent nearest bridge across the Yenisei located a few kilometers above and below the reservoir. However, through the reservoir ferry connections, particularly from the villages and Novoselovo Bellyk. Until the early 1990s, there was a passenger-carrying hydrofoil in the reservoir.</p><br>
<p>When creating the reservoir, the location of one of the first Russian settlements in Siberia was flooded. It had been populated by Khakassky tribes - Abakan fort (near modern Krasnoturansk).</p><br>

<p>Radøy is an island in Hordaland county, Norway. It is located east of Fedjefjorden and it is part of the municipalities of Radøy and Lindås. The island has an area of 110.7 km&sup2, with only about 3.4 km&sup2; being part of Lindås municipality. The highest point of the island is the 217 m tall Morkefjellet.</p><br>
<p>The island lies in the Nordhordland region of the county. The Hjeltefjorden and Radfjorden flow along the western coast and the Lurefjorden and Radsundet flow along the eastern coast. The island of Fosnøyna lies to the north of Radøy, the island of Toska lies to the west, the island of Holsnøy lies to the south, and the Lindås peninsula lies to the east.</p><br>
<p>The island had a population of 5,280 inhabitants in 2001, with the largest urban areas being the village of Manger on the west-central coast and the village of Bøvågen on the northern coast. Radøy is connected to the mainland via the Alversund Bridge on the southern tip of the island.</p><br>
<p>Historically, the island was part of the old municipalities of Manger which was divided into three municipalities in 1924: Hordabø, Manger, and Sæbø. In 1964, almost all of the island was united as Radøy municipality.</p><br>
<p>Trinity United Methodist Church is a historic Methodist church in Athens, McMinn County, Tennessee.</p><br>
<p>The congregation was founded in 1824-5 as the Methodist Episcopal Church of Athens. Its first meeting house was a structure of hewn logs built by slaves. It stood at the southwest corner of West Washington and Church Streets in Athens. It was eventually replaced by a brick building. When the Civil War resulted in a split within the Methodist Episcopal denomination, the congregation affiliated with the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. After the 1939 merger between that denomination and the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Protestant Church, the church became known as Trinity Methodist Church. It became a United Methodist church in 1968, when the Methodist Church and the Evangelical United Brethren Church combined to form that denomination.</p><br>
<p>The present church building was completed in 1910 at a cost of $32,449.28</p><br>
<p>In 2009, the church building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The Southern Mazghuna Pyramid is an ancient Egyptian royal tomb which was built during the 12th or the 13th Dynasty in Mazghuna, 5 km south of Dahshur, Egypt. The building was never finished, and is still unknown which pharaoh was the owner, since no appropriate inscription have been found.</p><br>
<p>The pyramid was rediscovered in 1910 by Ernest Mackay and excavated in the following year by Flinders Petrie.</p><br>
<h2>Attribution</h2><br>
<p>The building shares some structural similarities to the Hawara pyramid of Amenemhat III, and for this reason it is usually attributed to his son Amenemhat IV (around the end of the 19th-century BCE). In parallel, the near northern Mazghuna pyramid is considered to be the tomb of his sister Sobekneferu, the last ruler of the 12th Dynasty.</p><br>
<p>However, some researchers such as William C. Hayes believed that the southern pyramid was built during the 13th Dynasty, on the basis of some similarities with the pyramid of Khendjer. In this case, it should have belonged to one of the many pharaohs who ruled between the beginning of the 13th Dynasty and the loss of control of the northern territory occurred during or soon after the reign of Merneferre Ay.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The pyramid has a side length of 52.5 m. The core masonry consists of mudbricks and only reaches a height of one to two layers. Casing stones were not found; therefore, it is impossible to determine informations about the planned inclination angle and total height.</p><br>
<p>The entrance of the pyramid is located in the middle of the south side. A staircase leads down to a short horizontal passage. Here is a wall niche, from where a blocking stone had been pushed into the passage. Another staircase leads to a second block, which, however, is still in its niche.</p><br>
<p>Finally a U-shaped chamber system leads to the burial chamber, which is topped by a gable roof. There was an empty – but used – quartzite sarcophagus and some few grave goods (three limestone lamps, an alabaster duck-shaped vessel, a make-up vessel made from the same material and a piece of polished soapstone) were found in it.</p><br>
<p>The complex is surrounded by a wavy wall, which incorporate the remains of the chapel in the middle of the east side; it consists of a large central chamber with two chambers on each side of the storehouse. The central chamber was attached in its southwestern corner with a sacrificial hall with a vaulted roof.</p><br>
<p>The Edgewood Historic District–Shaw Plat is a residential historic district in the Edgewood neighborhood of northeastern Cranston, Rhode Island. It is bounded by Broad Street on the west, Marion Avenue on the south , and Narragansett Bay on the east; it consists of the properties that line the parallel streets, Shaw and Marion Avenues, and the short section of Narragansett Boulevard that runs between Shaw and Marion Avenues. On the north it abuts the separately-listed Edgewood Historic District–Arnold Farm Plat. The area was platted out between 1867 and 1895, with construction of most of its housing taking place between 1867 and the start of World War II, with the most construction going on between 1895 and 1930. The district also includes the previously listed Edgewood Yacht Club. In 1853, the 25 acres of land that became the Shaw Plat was sold to Allen Shaw of Providence for $3,660.</p><br>
<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>Most of the houses in the 25-acre district were built between 1880 and 1962, with the prevailing architectural types and styles being Queen Anne, Shingle, Colonial Revival, Bungalow, Four-Square, Dutch Colonial, English Cottage, Garrison Colonial, Ranch and Modern.</p><br>
<p>Cauls Pond is a wetland in Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean Sea. It is one of the territory’s Important Bird Areas .</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Cauls Pond is a rectangular brackish lagoon in the Sandy Hill district, near the south-east coast of the island. The second largest enclosed body of water in Anguilla, it lies beneath sea level and has a relatively large catchment. The substrate is mostly limestone with marl at its western end. It contains a small mudflat island. The vegetation around the edge of the pond consists of cacti and buttonwood mangroves, with other trees and shrubs growing behind them.</p><br>
<h3>Birds</h3><br>
<p>The 43 ha IBA, consisting of the pond and its immediate surroundings, was identified as such by BirdLife International because it supports a breeding colony of least terns as well as populations of brown pelicans, laughing gulls, green-throated caribs, Caribbean elaenias, pearly-eyed thrashers and Lesser Antillean bullfinches.</p><br>

<p>The IBA was identified as such by BirdLife International because it supports populations of royal and common terns, Caribbean elaenias and Lesser Antillean bullfinches.</p><br>
<p>The Gilsum Stone Arch Bridge carries Surry Road over the Ashuelot River in Gilsum, New Hampshire. Built in 1862-3, it is one of the highest stone arch bridges in the state. It has a span of 478", and an average height over the river of 366". The roadway is 436" above the riverbed. It stands on the site of four previous bridges, where the river passes through a deep gorge. The previous bridge was also a stone arch bridge, which was built in 1860 and collapsed  a few months later. It was designed by William Leonard Kingsbury, a local official; its builders are not known because the towns records were destroyed in a fire. The present bridge&#39;s vault is carefully constructed from dry-laid granite voussoirs that were shaped for a very precise fit, with larger stones at the lower ends of the arch, and a smaller ones at the crown. Some of the stones were left with rough surfaces, while others were hammered smooth.</p><br>
<p>In contrast to the fine stonework of the arch, the abutments and retaining walls are constructed of split-faced granite in irregular courses, wedged in place by stone chips. The northeast abutment continues along the river as a wing wall up to a massive stone pier, the former site of a mill dam. The southeast abutment is a granite reconstruction of coursed ashlar over concrete, done in 1951. The original granite coping which lined the roadway shoulders has been replaced by concrete with steel guard cables, c. 1920s.</p><br>
<p>The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<p>The First Baptist Church of Tiverton, commonly called the Old Stone Church, is a historic church property at 7 Old Stone Church Road in Tiverton, Rhode Island. The property consists of a cluster of buildings, including a church, parsonage, and parish house, along with a cemetery, on a largely wooded parcel of 38 acre. The timber frame church building was built in 1841, the parsonage in 1885, and the parish house c. 1879. The oldest documented cemetery burials are from the mid-19th century. Portions of the property are lined by period stone walls, including some that delineate former fields  that would have been farmed by the minister. The church was built by a congregation whose roots date to 1680, making it one of the oldest Baptist congregations in the United States.</p><br>
<p>The First Baptist Church of Tiverton was famous throughout the state for its clambakes. The first was in 1864. Some 4,000 people attended the event in 1875.</p><br>
<p>The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>The Allen–West House is an historic house at 153 George Street in Barrington, Rhode Island. The main block of the two story timber frame house was built c. 1763 by Joseph Allen. It is one of the older houses in Barrington, hearkening to the days when it was still part of Swansea, Massachusetts, and is a well-preserved rare example of a vernacular square house plan. The house stands amid grounds that were farmed from the 17th to the 20th centuries by the owners of this house, who included members of the Allen family until the mid-19th century, and the Wests until the mid-20th. The house has had two major additions: a kitchen ell added to the east in the 19th century and extended in the 1950s, and a c. 1920s single-story enclosed porch on the west side.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>The James Gowing Farm, also once known as Staghead Farm, is a historic farmstead on Page Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. It is now the centerpiece of the Dublin Christian Academy campus. The original 1.5 story Cape style house was built c. 1788 by James Gowing, Jr., not long after moving to the area. This structure is now part of a larger complex of buildings, many of which are Colonial Revival buildings built in the 1930s, when the house was also restored. The farmstead was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>The property has had several interesting owners. James Gowing, Jr.s son, Almerin, was a local militia leader and town selectman. The property was bought in 1853 by Samuel Hale, who served as Governor of New Hampshire 1882-83. In 1895 it was acquired by Louis Cabot (whose family manufactured Cabot Stain), who made it part of his large gentlemans farm. After deteriorating in the 1920s and 30s, the property was acquired by Mrs. Selina Riker, heir to the Riker Drug fortune in 1937. Mrs. Riker retained the firm of Belknap & Weir to design a Colonial Revival farm complex, of which the restored Gowing farmhouse became a part. Their design was developed as an extension of the Gowing house. The property was bought in 1954 by F. Nelson Blount, the president of the Ocean Spray cooperative. Blount donated the property for the establishment of the Dublin Christian Academy in 1964.</p><br>
<p>Dayahatyn  is a medieval caravanserai, sitting on the left bank of Amu Darya. It is around 170 km to the northwest of the modern city of Turkmenabat, Lebap Wilayah, near the border between Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. It is a fortified square enclosure with sides of 53 metres long. It was originally a fortress built by Tahir ibn Husayn in the 9th century. In the 11th century, it was transformed into a caravanserai with fascinating brick-structures, providing shelter for not only caravans but also elites during their long journeys. The integrity of Dayahatyn acts as a typical example showing the mastering skill of Seljuk architects on brickworks during the 11th and 12th centuries. Because of its artistic excellence, Dayahatyn is regarded as one of the most valuable and the finest example of caravanserai structure extant in the Central Asia.</p><br>
<h2>The construction of Dayahatyn</h2><br>
<p>There are several legends related to the construction of Dayahatyn. One of them is that the Rabat of Dayahatyn was built by a local ruler, who wished to hide from a beauty named Daya. Another version is about a rich man named Bai, who suspected his wife in infidelity and left home in the cloth of poor dervish. His wife Bai-Hatyn waited him to return for many years. In order to ease his suspicion, she built this beautiful Dayahatyn to show her love and fidelity to her husband. After years of wandering, Bai finally came back to the homeland as a worker in the caravansarei construction. Bai-Hatyn recognized him and they lived happily ever after.</p><br>
<p>Based on the archaeological finds and historic records, it is believed that Dayahatyn was originally the Tahiriya fort. The construction of the Tahiriya fort (which is also spelled as Takhiria) is attributed to Tahir ibn Husayn, founder of the Tahirid dynasty, in the 9th century This kind of fortresses of army detachments, or simply called as “Rabat”, were used for military training of the Ghazi Warriors. They studied the Koran and carried out military exercises and prayer offerings all within the fort.</p><br>
<p>Because of the frequent international trading activities, large groups of people were travelling along the Silk Road. Caravanserais were built in every 25-35 kilometres in cities and deserts along the ancient Silk Road to provide a shelter for travellers. As some areas are in the desolate steppes, walls and towers are needed to protect the coaching inn. Therefore, fortresses were sometimes transformed into caravanserais. In the 11th century, the Tahiriya fort was turned into a brick-caravanserai, which is the present Dayahatyn.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Dayahatyn caravanserai, with an adobe brick foundation and high-quality burnt brick structure on top, has a typical caravanserai- style square plan. It is enclosed by fortress walls of 53 metres long at each side with a round tower at each corner. Two mutually perpendicular axes are marked by projections and arches in the inner yard and medium towers on the outer wall. Towers at the corners and at intervals along the curtain walls conveyed a powerful and forbidding impression. The entrance on the eastern wall is also located on the perdencular axis and is stressed by a high arch portal. The rooms along its perimeter are separated by an arch gallery from the four-avian yard. There was also a mosque, an oblong hall to the right of the lobby.This kind of plan structure and its spatial perception have been specified and developed in the architecture of the later Timurid epoch,</p><br>
<p>At the stretches between the towers, there are symmetrically situated small rectangular towers excluding the pre-portal part. By archaeological investigations, these fortress walls are found be the residues of Tahiriya fort of the 9th century, As the fortress changed its function into a caravanserai in the 11th century, the former fortress was being modernized during the 11th and 12th centuries to meet the aesthetic of that time, The walls, masonry of arches, roofs and domes were all built during that period. The way of decorating walls with plain bricks reflects a typical Seljuk style of the 11th and 12th centuries. Decorative stucco moulding is applied in some places in the interiors. Dayahatyn is centainly a masterpiece of the architect skill of the Northern Khorasan School of the “Golden Age”.</p><br>
<p>On both sides of the entrance, the names of first successors to Prophet Mohammed (Ali, Omar, Osman and Abu Bakr) were found in kufic made by brickwork. By mentioning the names of four important caliphs, Dayahatyn, certainly, was not simply a caravanserai for caravans. It was indeed also served as a royal stopover for elites during the long trips across the expanses of their powers Rooms with unusual layout and exceptionally inventive design are believed to be for the elites.</p><br>
<p>Between the names of the four caliphs, there were some empty frames with traces of a missing outer layer. The missing parts are believed to be with some inscriptions on the history of the building and be removed in the later time for unknown reasons.</p><br>
<p>Another reconstruction of Dayahatyn was held in the 15th and 16th centuries. The high arched portal at the entrance was the product of that time. Its style is completely different from filigree brickwork of Seljuk period. The portal, without any decoration, is also made of bricks but in a larger size and yet not as high quality as the one in the 11th and 12th centuries.</p><br>
<h2>Rediscovery</h2><br>
<p>Along with the fall of the Silk Road, The Dayahatyn caravanserai lost its importance and was being abandoned. Since then, the former coaching inn became the shelter of no longer caravans, but sometimes military units and rare wanderers passed by. The gorgeous structure was forgotten by the history. Not until the year of 1840, an officer of the East India Company rediscovered the buildings during his trip from Herat to Khiva. He was the first European making a note on the caravanserai. In 1887, Leo Evgrafovich Dmitriev drew a picture of the caravanserai from the river side. Dayahatyn has its first photograph taken by Mikhail Chernyshevsky in 1899 and was first examined in 1920s by Alexander Marushchenko who laid the foundations of Turkmenistan archaeology. The first detailed study of Dayahatyn was carried out in 1950 by Anna Maksimovna Pribytkova, an architectural historian. Later, her colleague Galina A. Pugachenkova wrote the most fundamental work on the architectural history of Turkmenistan. She devotes many pages on the Dayahatyn and regards it as “a sample of the mature style, which requires a functional rationale, constructive feasibility and artistic excellence as an integral whole”</p><br>
<h2>Nowadays</h2><br>
<h3>Importance</h3><br>
<p>At its highest, there were thousands of different caravanserais scattered along the Silk Road. However, most of them have been completely demolished and only the masterpieces, like Dayahatyn, are left along the Silk Road. Its artistic excellence makes Dayahatyn the most fascinating caravanserai in Turkmenistan. It represents the gorgeous brickwork of the 11th century. It is also one of the most remarkable example of caravanserai architecture in Central Asia, along with Rabat-i Malik and Rabat-i Sharaf. These three caravanserais, with extraordinary artistic fineness, are believed to be the luxurious hotels along the Silk Road at that time. Among them, Dayahatyn retained its general contours to this day and has the highest integrity. As the structural layout is simply symmetrical, the missing parts of the buildings and decorations could be restored easily without any speculation based on the existing remains. The complete structure of caravanserai could always be easily recreated. Because of its architectural excellence and importance, Dayahatyn caravanserai is included in “The Analytic and Systematic Regional Inventory of Caravanserais in Central Asia”, organised by National Commission for UNESCO. Since 2002, Dayahatyn has been the subject of photographic surveys and drawing up of architectural documents. Dayahatyn is also recommended for inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage List because of its significance on the Silk Road</p><br>
<h3>Conservation</h3><br>
<p>Since its rediscovery in the late 19th century, not much proper heritage management and protection had been done on Dayahatyn. Visiotrs&#39; behaviours were not governed that carvings done by visitors could be seen on the walls. Only in the recent years, conservation and management projects on Dayahatyn began to carry out. In 2012, Dayahatyn is awarded with a conservation grant from “Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation” from the USA Government. The conservation project would be administrated by the National administration for Protection, Research and Restoration of Historical and Cultural Monuments of Turkmenistan. The administration is also responsible for monitoring the regime for management and use of Dayahatyn caravanserai and coordinating relevant practical works, like archaeological surveys and rehabilitation.</p><br>
<h3>Tourism</h3><br>
<p>As the Dayahatyn is located far from the common tourist routes and the movements of foreign visitors are still monitored by an extremely authoritarian government, the tourism development condition of Dayahatyn is not very favourable. Very few tourists would be able to make a visit there. In order to develop the tourism, Dayahatyn caravanserai is included in “The Programme for tourism industry development in Turkmenistan in 2012-2016”. Within the programme, improvement works on tourism development in Dayahatyn would be carried out in the near future.</p><br>
<p>The Joseph Gowing Farm is a historic farmhouse on Page Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The two story hip-roofed wood frame house was built in 1908, reconstructing c. 1793 farmhouse that was destroyed by fire. It was built by Louis Cabot, an industrialist who owned a large gentleman&#39;s farm, of which this house was occupied by his farm manager. The structure is technically Georgian Revival, as it is a reconstruction, but it is supposedly faithful to the original, which had added Federal style details, including corner pilasters and a bracketed cornice. The original house, in addition to its association with the locally prominent Gowing family, was also owned by Governor Samuel Hale before coming into the Cabot farm.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>The Grafton Bank is a historic bank building located at 225 E. Main St. in Grafton, Illinois. The Classical Revival building was constructed in 1913. The buff brick building features extensive terra cotta ornamentation on its front facade. A Diocletian window and terra cotta transom bar top the entrance, and terra cotta pilasters stand on either side. A classical entablature tops the entrance; the entablature includes an architrave, a frieze inscribed with the bank&#39;s name, and a dentillated three-section cornice. A brick parapet wall tops the facade; a stepped parapet recedes from the wall along the sides of the building. The bank which originally occupied the building closed in the 1930s, and the building has since been used for a variety of other, mainly commercial, purposes.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 16, 1994.</p><br>
<p>O&#39;Fallons Bluff is a section of bluffs about 20 mi long that run along the south side of the Platte river near Sutherland in Lincoln County, Nebraska. The Oregon and California trails ran up and over these bluffs. They were characterized by American pioneers heading west to Oregon and California as sparse in vegetation with a number of violent incidents involving Native Americans. In the early 1860s, a Pony Express station was located about 5 mi west of where the wagon trails went up the bluff. During construction of Interstate 80, the steep part of the bluffs were cut away but wagon ruts remained, which are marked by iron hoops signifying wagon wheels. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>There is relatively little recorded on OFallons Bluff other than diary entries by American pioneers heading west to Oregon and California. The bluffs were close to the Platte River and, due to the terrain, the Oregon and California trails ran up and over the bluffs. Most sources indicate that the bluffs were named after Indian agent Benjamin OFallon, but the origin of the name may be unclear.</p><br>
<p>The area around the bluffs were described as an "alkali belt" and alkali was found in both the water near O&#39;Fallons Bluff as well as the soil rendering much of the area near the bluffs devoid of vegetation. On June 13, 1881, Emily Towell wrote in her diary that "There were few flowers to be seen, only withered poppies, prickly pears and sunflowers. Now and then we glimpsed a few spears of green grass."</p><br>
<p>Although there are few detailed accounts, OFallons Bluff was known for incidents between Native Americans and non-native Americans who traveled there. For example, Thomas Twiss (an agent for the Upper Platte Indian Agency) reported that Almon W. Babbitt and two companions were killed by 13 Cheyenne Native Americans at OFallons Bluff in 1856. Eugene Ware, a junior officer in the 7th Iowa Cavalry in 1863, wrote about several incidents involving Native American attacks in the area.</p><br>
<p>On June 18, 1846 the Donner Party passed by O&#39;Fallons Bluff on their journey along the Oregon Trail to California.</p><br>
<p>In 1859, the Central Overland California and Pikes Peak Express Company used O&#39;Fallons Bluff station as a Pony Express station. The station was located around 2 mi south and 4 mi west of Sutherland, Nebraska and 5 mi west of where the Oregon and California Trails climbed up the bluffs.</p><br>
<h2>After construction of Interstate 80</h2><br>
<p>Much of OFallons Bluff was removed when Interstate 80 was constructed, though remnants of wagon-wheel ruts from the Oregon and California trails still remain. These trail ruts parallel to Interstate 80 ranging from only a few feet (or meters) to about a mile (a little over a kilometer) from it. The remaining ruts that run up and over OFallon&#39;s Bluff are marked by iron hoops representing wagon wheels and can be seen close to Interstate 80.</p><br>
<p>In 1864, Eugene Ware reported that General Robert Byington Mitchell stopped on OFallons Bluff, had it fortified, and ordered a company of cavalry to guard it. In 1966, archaeologists excavated a rectangular portion of a ditch at the base of OFallons Bluff that was thought to be the remnants of the fortifications erected in 1864. However, after excavating over 50 m of trenches, only scattered animal bones were found.</p><br>
<p>The Slaten-LaMarsh House is a historic house located at 25 E. Main St. in Grafton, Illinois. The house was built circa 1840 for D.C. Slaten, the first mayor of Grafton. The house has a side hall plan, a design featuring a hall on one side and rooms connected by the hall on the other. It is a rare -story side-hall plan house, as other houses using the plan in Grafton are all two stories. Locally quarried limestone was used to build the house; at the time of its construction, Grafton limestone was only used to build structures within the city, though it later became a widespread building material in the region. The limestone blocks on the front facade are visibly more ashlar than those on the sides, a masonry choice which gives the front corners a quoin-like appearance.</p><br>
<p>The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 16, 1994.</p><br>
<p>The Phillipsdale Historic District encompasses a historic mill village along the Seekonk River in East Providence, Rhode Island. The village grew up around the Richmond Paper Company Mill Complex, built 1883-1887, which is separately listed on the National Register. It also includes 75 units of worker housing, as well as five houses  that predate the mill complex&#39;s construction. The Phillipsdale area was the largest source of employment in East Providence between 1893 and 1910. The district is centered on Roger Williams Avenue and Bourne Avenue, and includes properties on Ruth Avenue and the grid of roads between Ruth and Roger Williams. It also includes Omega Pond .</p><br>
<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<p>The Pocasset Worsted Company Mill is an historic industrial complex at 75 Pocasset Street in Johnston, Rhode Island. It consists of a complex of four connected brick buildings, built between 1897 and 1902. The buildings form a rough U shape on a 3.38 acre parcel of land between Pocasset Street and the Pocasset River. The two legs of the U are nearly identical main mill buildings, constructed in 1897 and 1902; they are joined by an engine and boiler house. The mill office building is attached to the southern  mill building. The Pocasset Worsted Company was Johnston&#39;s largest employer in the early 20th century; its buildings were used for textile production until 1989.</p><br>
<p>The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.</p><br>
<p>The Dovecot At Blackford Farm in Selworthy on Exmoor within the English county of Somerset was probably built in the 11th century. It is a Grade II* listed building, and scheduled monument.</p><br>
<p>The cylindrical stone dovecote has a cone shaped roof. It contains over 300 nest boxes. The pigeons would have been domesticated for food, possibly by Montacute Priory or by the local lord of the manor. It is now owned by the National Trust and used as a store for the neighbouring farm.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The earliest written record of the dovecote was in 1393 although the exact date of construction is not known. It was attached to a mansion house which burnt down in 1875. The manor previously belonged to Montacute Priory, a Cluniac priory of the Benedictine order, founded between 1078 and 1102 although it is not known if the construction of the dovecote was undertaken by the priory or the Lovel family who later held the manor. Pigeons and doves were an important food source historically kept for their eggs, flesh (squab), and dung.</p><br>
<p>The dovecote which forms part of the property of the Holnicote Estate, was donated to the National Trust by Sir Richard Thomas Dyke Acland, 15th Baronet in 1944. It was scheduled as an ancient monument in 1949 and designated as a Grade II* listed building in 1969. Repairs were undertaken to the dovecote in 1993. The building is used as a store by the neighbouring farmer.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The building is cylindrical with an external diameter of 23 ft and is 15 ft high to the eaves. The walls, which are 4 ft thick, are built of Devonian sandstone. The doorway was widened to its current height of 6 ft high and 3 ft wide in the 19th century replacing a much smaller door which would have been present when it was used as a dovecote.</p><br>
<p>It contains over 300 nest holes. These are arranged into 11 tiers with an irregular pattern. Each of the boxes is approximately 11 in wide and 20 in wide but the opening is smaller than the interior of the box. The lowest boxes are about 2 ft above the earth floor which kept them above the damp and away from brown rats which became common in the area in the 18th century.</p><br>
<p>The original hole in the roof for the entry of the pigeons was covered by a flat stone and is now covered with glass to keep the interior dry. The interior of the roof has putlog holes rather than nesting boxes but may also have been used by pigeons.</p><br>
<p>Rendezvous Bay Pond, also known as Rendezvous Bay Salt Pond, is a wetland in Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean Sea. It is one of the territory’s Important Bird Areas .</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The pond is a shallow, 24 ha brackish lagoon near the south-western end of the main island. The substrate is marl on the northern side and sand on the southern. It receives fresh water from rainfall, runoff and a few springs. The pond also receives salt water seepage from the bay through the strip of beach that divides them. It was historically used for salt production. Vegetation around the pond is sparse, except for stands of buttonwood mangroves at its western end. Land at the eastern end is mainly used for livestock grazing.</p><br>
<h3>Birds</h3><br>
<p>The IBA was identified as such by BirdLife International because it supports a small breeding colony of least terns as well as populations of common terns and brown pelicans.</p><br>
<p>Maunsel House in the English county of Somerset was built in the late 14th or early 15th century. The house stands south of the hamlet of North Newton, in the parish of North Petherton. It is the family seat of the Slade baronets and is a Grade II* listed building.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>It is believed that Geoffrey Chaucer wrote part of The Canterbury Tales while staying at the house.</p><br>
<p>Between 1648 and 1726 it was owned by the Bacon family who turned some the land, which had been part of Petherton Park, into gardens, orchards and a fish pond.</p><br>
<p>It has been the family seat of the Slade baronets since 1772, when it was bought at auction for £3,000. Between 1772 and 1868 wings were added to the north and west of the original building. The county surveyor Richard Carver, a pupil of Sir Jeffrey Wyattville, carried out some work in Gothic taste about 1835.</p><br>
<p>The house is now used as a wedding venue and for corporate events. To enable catering for large parties a commercial kitchen was built to fit in with the architecture of the rest of the building.</p><br>
<p>In 2012 the house and the current owner Sir Benjamin Slade appeared in a television programme "The Guest Wing". The house also featured in an episode of ITV&#39;s Party Wright Around the World presented by Mark Wright.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>

<p>The Moses Greenwood House, formerly the Dublin Inn, is a historic house at the corner of Pierce Road and Old County Road in Dublin, New Hampshire, United States. The oldest portion of this house was built c.1783 by Moses Greenwood, a veteran of the American Revolutionary War, and is a fairly conventional four-bay wood frame structure. After being the Greenwood family home for a century, it was acquired by Mary Metcalfe, who added one wing in 1899, and Adele Thayer, who added a second wing in 1910. These additions, Georgian Revival in styling, were sympathetic to the style of the original house. The inn was the site of a meeting of notable Americans in 1945, who drafted the Dublin Declaration, a document calling for control of nuclear weapons and the broadening of the United Nations into a worldwide governing body. A second meeting, the Dublin Assembly on Peace, was held in October 1965. This event was hosted by Anna K. Yoss, owner of the Dublin Inn.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>The Ivanov-Rinov House is a historic house on Pierce Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. This two story house and studio was built over a twenty-year period beginning in 1937 by Gouri P. Ivanov-Rinov, an artist born in Russian Turkestan. The house features distinctive construction methods not usually found in New England, since they are based on those from his homeland. The main block is a square constructed of rammed earth, with a rear extension that is wood framed, which houses the kitchen and studio. The exterior is finished in a gray stucco-like material, with wood trim. The interior of the earth walls has recessed niches for the display of artwork. The rammed-earth construction is believed to be the only building of its type in New England.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>The Shoreby Hill Historic District encompasses a major residential subdivision north of the central business district of Jamestown, Rhode Island. The 58 acre district was farmland until the late 19th century, and was laid out in two phases. The first, in 1898 includes the lower portion of the area, rising from the shore of Jamestown Harbor; the upper portion was laid out in 1911. The lower portion&#39;s layout is in part determined by its hill topography, with winding roads, while the upper portion has a more rectilinear grid street pattern. The district is roughly bounded on the east by Jamestown Harbor, on the north by Emerson Road, Prudence Lane, and Whittier Road, on the west by Plymouth Road , and Coronado Street, and on the south by Knowles Court. The area was designed by Ernest W. Bowditch as an exclusive and fashionable summer resort area, with larger houses on well-proportioned lots. The ninety houses in the district are predominanty Shingle style.</p><br>
<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<p>The Nestelberg is a 402-metre-high hill in the Dahner Felsenland in the Wasgau, a region that comprises the southern part of the Palatine Forest in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate and the northern part of the French Vosges in the departments of Bas-Rhin and Moselle.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The Nestelberg lies south of Berwartstein Castle and left of the Erlenbach stream in the parish of Erlenbach bei Dahn in the county of Südwestpfalz. The hill is covered in woodland and may be climbed on a footpath, very steep in places, which starts around 200 metres below in the Erlenbach valley.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The hill became important in the Late Middle Ages when an outwork known as Little France (Klein-Frankreich) was built in 1484 as a hillside fort at 322 metres above sea level on the northern slope of the Nestelberg at the instigation of the castellan of the Berwartstein, Marshal Hans von Trotha. Only 370 metres in a direct line from the main castle, the fortification enabled the Leichenfeld, a field which was the only past where cannon at that time could be set up near the Berwartstein, to be brought into a crossfire from the north (Berwartstein) and south (Little France).</p><br>
<p>Castle Cove, also locally known as Sandsfoot Cove, is a small secluded sandy beach to the west of Weymouth, in Dorset, southern England. It is found within the village of Wyke Regis, and close to Sandsfoot Castle - one of Henry VIII&#39;s Device Forts, built around 1541 opposite its contemporary Portland Castle to protect Portland Harbour. The beach is privately owned, but has remained open to the public until recent years following the removal of steps leading to the cove following unstable movements within the land. The usually quiet and uncrowded beach has remained a local favourite spot for swimming, sailing, snorkelling and diving, from the gently sloping shoreline.</p><br>
<p>Close to the cove is the Castle Cove Sailing Club - a family club which first began in a cliff-top chalet in 1923 above the cove, before expanding and moving to the present site at the end of Old Castle Road in September 2002. The club has over 450 memberships.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>A refreshment kiosk had been on the site since 1947. During the 21st century, a fast food outlet was opened on the beach, which sparked controversy over the private, family beach becoming too commercialised. Planning permission had also been granted for eight beach huts to be built on the beach, before lapsing in mid-2012. Eventually the owner, who ran The Shack cafe for 18 months, reluctantly decided to sell the beach. In July 2012, Castle Cove was auctioned at The Ageas Bowl in Southampton, and sold for £90,500 – thousands of pounds over its original guide price of £65,000 to £75,000. This bidding war was partly due to the potential of premium views of the sailing events of the 2012 Summer Olympics. The purchasers of the beach, Lee and Karen Maidment, announced at the time of the purchase that they were "...thrilled to buy this lovely beach and intend to help and maintain this local facility for the future for local people. We know people are passionate about this particular beach and we are too."</p><br>
<p>By 2014, there had been no footpath access to the beach for over a year, following a landslip and the removal of the steps in February 2013 for safety reasons, due to unstable land caused by coastal erosion. As a result local parent and Green Party member Clare Sutton organised a petition via Change.org, in effort to prompt Weymouth & Portland Borough Council to work with Dorset County Council, local landowners and businesses to find a solution. Launched on 22 March 2014, the petition had attracted over 1700 signatures, including almost 800 online, by 7 April. The council&#39;s Head of Infrastructure had responded that no funding was available to complete the stabilising of the coastline, and that it would cost a significant amount of money to rebuild the steps.</p><br>

<p>The Moody Mansion, also known as the Willis-Moody Mansion, is a historic residential building in Galveston, Texas located at 2618 Broadway Street. The thirty-one room Romanesque mansion was completed in 1895. The home is named for William Lewis Moody, Jr., an American financier and entrepreneur in the cotton business who bought the home from Galveston socialite Narcissa Willis. The mansion was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 13, 1994. Tours are offered, and the facilities can be rented out for weddings and other events.</p><br>
<h2>Construction and history</h2><br>
<p>The mansion was commissioned by Galveston socialite Narcissa Willis in 1893. Throughout her life, Willis had asked her husband, entrepreneur and cotton broker Richard S. Willis, to build a grand home. Willis demurred as he preferred to keep his assets liquid to be distributed among his ten children on his death. After Richard Willis&#39; died in 1892, Narcissa had the home she and her husband shared torn down and began plans to build a more opulent home on the site. For this act, Willis was estranged from her family until her death in 1899. Her children never visited the opulent mansion designed to bring them back to Galveston. Willis lived alone in the house with a single housekeeper who was paid $1,000 a year, three times the wages domestics earned at the time.</p><br>
<p>Willis commissioned an English architect, William H. Tyndall, to design the home. Following the style of Richard Norman Shaw, Tyndall used elements from different cultures and periods, leading to an eclectic appearance. The interiors were designed by Pottier & Stymus, a famous New York firm of the time that also worked for such clients as Thomas Edison, William Rockefeller, and President Ulysses S. Grant.</p><br>
<p>Upon Narcissa Willis death in 1899, her daughter Beatrice put the home up for sale. Libbie Moody, who lived in a home nearby the mansion, asked her husband, William Lewis Moody, Jr., to put in a bid for the mansion. After the Hurricane of 1900 devastated Galveston that September, many of the bidders pulled out of the sale. Moody won the mansion for $20,000, a fraction of the mansions over $100,000 worth. Moody, his wife and four children promptly moved into the home and celebrated their first Christmas at the mansion in 1900.</p><br>
<p>Members of the Moody family resided in the home until 1986 when it was turned into a historic museum commemorating the Moody family. Hurricanes continue to affect the history of the home. In September 2008, Hurricane Ike lead to the flooding of the basement. Libbie Moodys potting room and the period kitchen were lost. As of July 2014, the basement was opened as the Galveston Childrens Museum.</p><br>
<h2>Layout</h2><br>
<p>The home has thirty-one rooms and five balconies. Tyndall incorporated many technological advances of the period including a one-passenger elevator, a dumbwaiter, speaking tubes in the pantry for communicating with the kitchen staff in the basement, heated drying racks in the laundry room, and lighting fixtures using both gas and electricity. The house also has its own rainwater cistern.</p><br>
<p>The home has four floors. The basement which contained the servant&#39;s quarters and kitchen is on the ground floor.</p><br>
<h3>First floor</h3><br>
<p>Entryway - The entryway is decorated with oak paneling of a classical design derived from the Doric order. Above the stairway is a stained-glass window espousing themes of welcome. As the window stands in an alcove formed by the front and back sides of the house it has been well protected from the elements and was only removed once when Mary Moody had the stained-glass re-leaded.</p><br>
<p>Parlor - The parlor is in an 18th-century French style and is the most opulent room in the house with gold on blue-grey silk wall coverings and gold-decorated plaster friezes. Despite its grandeur, guests did not often stay in this room for long as the Moodys preferred to entertain in the less formal library. In 1983 Hurricane Alicia caused extensive water damage to this room. Ten years and ten million dollars later, this room was able to be reopened.</p><br>
<p>Library - The library is in Empire Revival style. It has pink silk wall coverings decorated with rosettes. Rosettes can also be found in the lighting fixtures and on the door and window casings. The book cases only extend halfway up the wall to invite accessibility and also to facilitate personal decoration of the room.</p><br>
<p>Ballroom - The ballroom was still unfinished upon Narcissa Willis death. After the Moodys purchased the home, they used it as a junk room. As Mary Moody, the oldest daughter, approached her 18th birthday, Libbie Moody entreated her husband to repair the room for their daughters debut party. William Moody, Jr. accepted bids for the room, coming in as low as $6,000. However, ever conservative with his money, decided to finish the room by himself. The flooring was pine, purchased from Sears & Roebuck. The friezes were created from molds. The only item purchased for the room was a mirror. Four years after her coming-out party, Mary Moody and Edwin Clyde Northen were married in this room.</p><br>
<p>Conservatory - Libbie Moody enjoyed growing ferns in the conservatory. During parties, musicians would play from the conservatory.</p><br>
<p>Dining Room - The dining room is in Beaux Arts style with mahogany paneling. The ceiling is coffered and quite heavy. Hidden steel railroad beams support the ceiling. The bas-relief above the fireplace depicts hunters and hounds. While it appears hand-carved it is actually painted plaster.</p><br>
<p>Pantry</p><br>
<p>Children&#39;s Dining Room - Narcissa Willis designed this room for children and grandchildren who had yet to learn proper Victorian table manners. However, Libbie Moody found the room too small, and all meals in the Moody household were taken in the dining room.</p><br>
<p>Living Room - The living room is in Colonial Revival style.</p><br>
<h3>Second floor</h3><br>
<p>Libbies Room (Infirmary Room) - This room was designed for those sick with fever, common in the 19th century. Both the airways and the fireplace of this room are separate from those of the rest of the house. This room has its own restroom. As a child Libbie Moody asked her father if she could paint the wood in her room in a lighter color because she found the dark wood too oppressive. She received her fathers permission, and therefore the wood in this room is lighter than that in the others.</p><br>
<p>Mary&#39;s Room</p><br>
<p>Bathroom - This bathroom connects Mary&#39;s room with the Master Bedroom. It contains a toilet and a bidet. The tub has two fixtures for showering, one with a single spout and the other with a rainfall shower head, a feature unique to this bathroom.</p><br>
<p>Master Bedroom</p><br>
<p>Nursery Room - This room was never used as intended, but the physical features of the room allow for an understanding of its original purpose. The fireplace has small recesses on each side for warming bottles of milk, and there is a tub in this room on a raised dais of two steps that allows a nursemaid to survey the room and other potential trouble-making children while washing a baby.</p><br>
<p>William&#39;s Room</p><br>
<p>Shearn&#39;s Room</p><br>
<p>Sewing Room - This room was also used as a guest room and as a sleeping room for William Lewis Moody, Jr. during the summer months when his family was up north in Virginia. This room has its own bathroom.</p><br>
<h3>Third floor</h3><br>
<p>Four additional guest rooms</p><br>
<p>Auditorium</p><br>
<p>Additional Storage</p><br>

<p>The estate and gardens were used as sets for a number of early motion pictures for film industry notables such as Douglas Fairbanks and D.W. Griffith. The estate is listed as a Pasadena Cultural Landmark and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 5, 1985.</p><br>
<p>Marston & Van Pelt also designed the 1915 Curtin House, a smaller French-influenced house on the grounds for Eva Fenyes&#39; only daughter, Leonora Curtin, who inherited the mansion from her mother. Leonora Curtin had one daughter also named Leonora who was known as “Babsie”. A linguist who spent time among the Pueblo Indians, Babsie traveled widely, spending time in Santa Fe and Pasadena until she met Yrjo Alfred Paloheimo, a Finnish diplomat whom she married in 1946.</p><br>
<p>Paloheimo was Finland’s Consul for the Southwest area and the Fenyes Mansion served as the Finnish consulate’s office for seventeen years. Paloheimo also established the Finnish Folk Art Museum, a Swiss chalet-style building. Paloheimo and his wife adopted four Finnish children, who together donated the estate to the Pasadena Museum of History in 1970.</p><br>
