Heaton Park, Manchester, North West England, England, United Kingdom, Europe
Heaton Park is a municipal park in Manchester, England, covering an area of over 600 acres (242.8 ha). The park includes the grounds of a Grade I listed, neoclassical 18th century country house, Heaton Hall. The hall, remodelled by James Wyatt in 1772, is now only open to the public on an occasional basis as a museum and events venue. Heaton Park was sold to Manchester City Council in 1902 by the Earl of Wilton. It has one of the United Kingdom's few concrete towers, the Heaton Park BT Tower. The park was renovated as part of a millennium project partnership between the Heritage Lottery Fund and Manchester City Council at a cost of over £10 million. It contains an 18-hole golf course, a boating lake, an animal farm, a pitch and putt course, a golf driving range, woodlands, ornamental gardens, an observatory, an adventure playground, a Papal monument and a volunteer-run tram system and museum, and is listed Grade II by Historic England. It has the only flat green bowling greens in Manchester, built for the 2002 Commonwealth Games.

John Betjeman's Manchester
Heaton Hall in Prestwich opens its doors to John Betjeman, poet, broadcaster and architectural expert.
A drive to Heaton Hall in the misty suburbs of Manchester. John Betjeman's celebrated passion for Britain's architectural heritage shines through in this edition of Discovering Britain, the 26-part series he made for Shell in the 1955. This episode is titled Heaton Hall, Near Manchester.
Betjeman describes the hall as a museum of Georgian craftsmanship. Treasures include the well-proportioned music room, beautifully crafted balustrades and an engraving of Sunderland Bridge on a small glass goblet. The tin pipes of the organ, which give sweetness of tone, are also cherished.

I'm fascinated by the presence of nature in cities. Parks are an intermediary space between the urban and the rural - which for me means the hills. Heaton Park in Manchester is sometimes described as one of the largest in Europe. I don't know if that's exaggeration. It's certainly a huge park and quite a surprise if you're used to the smaller green spaces in other parts of the city.
I'm a hill walker. It's what I love to do in the Pyrenees, Scotland, Lake District, Snowdonia and Peak District. I don't do that as much as I like however, which means I walk parks and nature reserves and enjoy them accordingly.
Parks are a lovely resource in congested cities. Heaton Park is one of the best in Manchester. Not because it's notably scenic, but because of its size and elevation with the highest point in Manchester to enjoy.

The hall, has been a Grade I Listed Building since 1952 and has been called the finest house of its period in Lancashire. It is built of sandstone and stuccoed brick, in a traditional Palladian design with the entrance on the north side and the facade on the south. The landscaping was designed to make the most of the uninterrupted views of the rolling hills across to the Pennines. An important feature of this was the ha-ha, used to keep the grazing animals, so important to the landscaping, away from the formal lawns, with a barrier that was all-but invisible from the house.
The state rooms include the Library, the Music Room, Dining Room, and upstairs, a rather rare Etruscan Room. The rooms of the hall were exquisitely finished by the finest artists and craftsmen of the period, with most of the furnishings and mahogany doors being made by Gillow's of Lancashire. Most of the decorative paintings, the Pompeiian Cupola Room and the case for the 18th century chamber organ built by Samuel Green in 1790, were the work of Italian artist, Biagio Rebecca. The organ fills one wall of the Music Room. The ornate plasterwork was created by the firm of Joseph Rose II of York.
There are 13 rooms occasionally open to the public in the central core and east wing. Manchester City Galleries restored the decorative detail in the 1980s and early 1990s. The ground floor rooms on the north east front have been converted to an expansive space that houses temporary exhibitions. The first floor rooms include the Cupola which was originally Lady Egerton's dressing-room. The room was styled in the 1770s Pompeiian style with mirrored walls and a domed ceiling — there are only three such rooms left in Britain.
The library was remodelled by Lewis Wyatt in the 1820s. A painting depicting one of the horseracing meetings held in the park can be seen here. The library is now licensed for civil partnership and wedding ceremonies. Heaton Hall's collections are managed by Manchester Galleries. Photography is not permitted in the hall but a collection of photographs of the hall's interior can be seen on the Manchester Art Gallery.
The Temple
Designed by James Wyatt in 1800 for the First Earl, the ornamental temple is a simple, small rotunda of Tuscan columns with a domed roof and lantern. This Grade II listed building stands on the highest point of the City of Manchester giving views across the golf course, which was originally the deer park. It has its own fireplace and is thought to have been used as an observatory by the Earl who is known to have owned a telescope bought from Dollond's of London. The cost of the telescope was £18.5s.0d (£18.25) - the same amount earned in a year by the Earl's under-butler. The temple has recently been enclosed by a stone balustrade and gravelled path and is used as a summer studio for artists.info from Wikipedia.music supplied by audionautix.com

The Heaton Park Manchester was renovated as part of a millennium project partnership between the Heritage Lottery Fund and Manchester City Council at a cost of over £10 million. Heaton Park Manchester contains an 18-hole golf course, tennis courts, a boating lake, an animal farm, a pitch and putt course, a golf driving range, woodlands, ornamental gardens, an observatory, an adventure playground, a Papal monument and a volunteer-run tram system and museum, and is listed Grade II by Historic England.Heaton Park Manchester has the only flat green bowling greens in Manchester, built for the 2002 Commonwealth Games.Heaton Hall had been owned by the Holland family since the Middle Ages. In 1684, when Sir John Egerton, 3rd Baronet of Wilton, married Elizabeth Holland, the hall came to the Egerton family.[10] In 1772, Sir Thomas Egerton, 7th Baronet (later the 1st Earl of Wilton), commissioned the fashionable architect James Wyatt to design a new home for his young family. Although Wyatt had already established a reputation for himself as an innovative architect, he was only 26 years old and Heaton Hall was his first country house commission.Wyatt's neo-classical masterpiece was built in phases and was mostly completed by 1789.
The Heaton Park Manchester was originally laid out by William Emes in the style of Capability Brown. It has long been used for public events such as Heaton Park races, which were established by the second Earl in 1827. The races were run on a course on the site of the present day boating lake until 1839 when they moved to Aintree near Liverpool, now the venue for the Grand National. During the 19th century when the railway to Bury was being laid, it stopped short of Heaton Park, as Lord Wilton was not prepared to see his estate disfigured by a railway.As a compromise the line was run under the estate in a tunnel and a railway station opened adjacent to the Whittaker Lane/Bury Old Road entrance in 1879 (now Heaton Park Metrolink station). Consequently, the decision by Lord Wilton to put the hall and park up for sale was greeted with dismay, especially when it became known that the site was being eyed by a property developer. A pressure group was formed to persuade Manchester City Council to purchase it as a museum and municipal park. Alderman Fletcher Moss, a prominent antiquarian was a notable influence in this movement. The park was purchased and opened to the public in 1902. Unfortunately, the council was not prepared to purchase the contents of the hall, so the furniture and paintings were sold by auction. The hall was considered by the council to be of little architectural or historical significance and the saloon was initially used as a tea-room.[16]
During the First World War, the park was used as a training camp for the Pals battalion of the Manchester Regiment, whilst Heaton Hall became a military hospital.[17]
In the Second World War, the park was a camp for the Royal Air Force, where 133,516 aircrew were trained. The park was home to a barrage balloon anchorage and an ackack emplacement. Two prefab housing estates and an infants school were built in the south of the park, the houses providing much-needed homes until they were demolished in the 1960s. The school building was used by Manchester City Council until 2012, when it was demolished

Heaton Park flight in Manchester UK , yet another really gusty day (15-20mph and gusts above 30) but the X4 handled it well , it's amazing to watch it getting buffetted about from the ground to watch the footage turn out as good as it does , there is the odd jello here and there as I turn into the wind but I can live with that as it was soooo windy.
Heaton Park, Manchester [4K60fps]
We take a plod around the massive Heaton Park in north Manchester. It's got a little something for everyone, with a golf course, a boating lake, play areas for the kids, the historic Heaton Hall and even a garden centre. Sadly we didn't have time to take it all in, but we'll hopefully be back again soon.

History of Manchester - 1. Mamucium
The first in a series about the history of one of the world's most historically important cities. I'll be looking into the very origins of Manchester - from an insignificant nowhere in an obscure corner of Europe to a valuable hub for the Roman expansion across the British Isles.
I'll visit the remains of the old Roman fort in Castlefield - Mamucium - including the only remaining piece of the original fort left standing, which until recently was inaccessible and forgotten about.
Finally, I'll be heading to the Castleshaw valley above Saddleworth to find a tiny outpost the Romans built there.

Are we inside a Truman show enclosed world, thousands of miles wide? This is part of a series of videos that shows not only is it possible, but likely.
The Flat Earth awakening is the biggest story to hit this world in Millennia. I am humble to be just a part of this massive force of truth, one that's going to change the world and how you live forever. This new site is dedicated to everything that is real and true about the place where you live, a place that has until now, been hidden from you. Join me in rediscovering the awesome power and potential of our civilization. Together we can take back the secrets and knowledge, and become great again.
This is my personal declaration of war from Flat Earth against mainstream science. I, Mark Sargent, hereby put forth a challenge to any university, foreign or domestic, to debate or discuss the Flat Earth reality. The short version is this: You fly me in, take care of my hotel, and I'll face down any scientific body you put against me. My only debate requirement is that you have someone with a Master's degree in a physical science either participating in, or supervising the event. Accept this challenge, and you will be treated with respect. If not, then you're just cowards hiding behind empty equations.
George Orwell
Tribune, 27 December 1946
Most people, if asked to prove that the earth is round, would not even bother to produce the rather weak arguments I have outlined above. They would start off by saying that ‘everyone knows’ the earth to be round, and if pressed further, would become angry. In a way Shaw is right. This is a credulous age, and the burden of knowledge which we now have to carry is partly responsible.
