Crossrail, the new east-west railway for London and the South East, moved a step closer for people in Abbey Wood today as passengers began using the first section of the new station that is being constructed by Network Rail.
In preparation for Crossrail services starting in 2018, Network Rail is completely redeveloping the site in Abbey Wood by building a new landmark station and two miles of track. From today, passengers using Southeastern services travelling into London began using a brand new platform – the first part of the new station to be brought into use.
The new platform is wider than the old platform, provides increased canopy cover, better lighting and new customer information screens.
Work will now begin on the new platform 2, which will be brought into use for Kent-bound Southeastern services in autumn 2016. Work will also continue on the new station building, the foundations of which have already been installed.
Once Crossrail services begin in 2018, up to 12 extra trains an hour will allow passengers to travel right through central London without having to change trains, reducing journey times to a number of destinations across the capital.

Network Rail has begun work to build the new station at Abbey Wood as part of the Crossrail programme.
The first of more than 100 piled foundations which will support the new station have been installed. The piling will continue until the end of the year, when the building will start to become visible above ground. The station, which will be built over two new dedicated Crossrail tracks and those used by North Kent services, will open at the end of 2017.
Work has been underway in Abbey Wood since 2013 and has included the construction of an interim station, the demolition of the old station and the installation of a new one mile section of track.
Matthew White, Crossrail Surface Director said: “Crossrail will help to transform Abbey Wood, dramatically improving transport links and bringing a state-of the-art station. A train every five minutes at peak times will make it quicker and easier to get to a range of destinations across London and the South East.”
Matthew Steele, Crossrail Programme Director at Network Rail said: “It’s great news that the construction of the new station is underway. As part of our railway upgrade plan, we are on schedule to provide people in Abbey Wood with a fantastic new station by the end of 2017. Local people will benefit from a spacious new ticket hall, step-free access to every platform and better access to local bus services.”
The new station at Abbey Wood will include:
A bright, spacious concourse that leads directly onto a wide forecourt connecting the station to the Harrow Manorway flyover, which runs above the station
Two new ‘island’ platforms for Crossrail and North Kent services
Six lifts to help passengers get around the station and to provide step-free access to every platform.
From 2018, a train every five minutes during the peak will allow residents to travel right through the capital without having to change trains. The journey from Abbey Wood to Canary Wharf and Bond Street with TfL-run Crossrail will be around 20 minutes quicker and passengers travelling to Heathrow will be able to cut around 40 minutes off their journey.

Network Rail has successfully delivered a £30m package of work for the Crossrail project as part of one of the biggest Easter investment programmes ever carried out on Britain’s railways.
More than 3,000 workers were out on the railway over the four-day Easter weekend carrying out carefully planned work which will ultimately integrate the new Crossrail tunnels beneath London with the existing rail network. This is vital as three quarters of the Crossrail route – which will be known as the Elizabeth line from December 2018 – will run above ground through outer London, Berkshire and Essex, bringing 1.5 million more people to within 45 minutes of central London.

Abbey Wood is a district of South-East London, England, located mostly in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, and partly within the London Borough of Bexley. It is situated 9.3 miles (15 km) east of Charing Cross.
The district takes its name from Lesnes Abbey Woods, located to the east.
The Abbey of St Mary and St Thomas the Martyr at Lesnes (or Lesnes Abbey) was founded in 1178 by Richard de Luci, Chief Justiciar of England. The Abbott of Lesnes Abbey was an important local landlord, and took a leading part in draining the marshland. However, this and the cost of maintaining river embankments was one of the reasons given for the Abbey's chronic financial difficulties. It never became a large community, and was closed by Cardinal Wolsey in 1525, under a licence to suppress monasteries of less than seven inmates. It was one of the first monasteries to be closed after the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1524, and the monastic buildings were all pulled down, except for the Abbott's Lodging. Henry Cooke acquired the site in 1541 and it eventually passed to Sir John Hippersley who salvaged building materials, before selling the property to Thomas Hawes of London in 1632. It was then bequeathed to Christ's Hospital in 1633.

- Mazoe News Woman Sought In Train 'Racial Abuse' Inquiry Witnesses are being sought after a video appearing to show a woman racially abusing fellow train passengers was posted online. Police have launched an appeal for witnesses after a video appearing to show a woman racially abusing passengers on a train was posted on the internet. British Transport Police have released CCTV images of a woman they would like to speak to about the incident, which is believed to have taken place on a Woolwich Arsenal to Abbey Wood train in south east London on Tuesday. It came after a 40-second clip appeared on YouTube showing a middle-aged passenger arguing with other commuters on board a busy train. During the film, the woman is heard shouting "go home where you belong". Detective Inspector Jeremy Walley, investigating the incident, said: "We have isolated images of a woman we believe may be able to help us with our investigation into the incident, which took place around 3.20pm. "At this stage, we urge anyone who witnessed this incident, or who recognises the woman, to get in touch and help us build up a full picture of exactly what took place. "We treat all allegations of racism very seriously and urge anyone with information about this incident to contact us." -

Crossrail Surface: Former Abbey Wood station demolished
The former station building at Abbey Wood has been demolished by Network Rail as part of work to transform services in the local area for Crossrail. The station building was opened in May 1987 but has been removed to make way for a new, landmark station being constructed by Network Rail. Matthew White, Crossrail Surface Director said: “This is another major milestone for the works taking place in Abbey Wood to transform rail services for local people. The arrival of Crossrail in 2018 will significantly increase the number of trains serving the local area and, for the first time, allow people to travel right through central London without having to change trains.” Matthew Steele, Crossrail Programme Director at Network Rail said: “With the demolition of the former building, we’re one st... -

Crossrail, the new east-west railway for London and the South East, moved a step closer for people in Abbey Wood today as passengers began using the first section of the new station that is being constructed by Network Rail.
In preparation for Crossrail services starting in 2018, Network Rail is completely redeveloping the site in Abbey Wood by building a new landmark station and two miles of track. From today, passengers using Southeastern services travelling into London began using a brand new platform – the first part of the new station to be brought into use.
The new platform is wider than the old platform, provides increased canopy cover, better lighting and new customer information screens.
Work will now begin on the new platform 2, which will be brought into use for Kent-bound Southeastern services in autumn 2016. Work will also continue on the new station building, the foundations of which have already been installed.
Once Crossrail services begin in 2018, up to 12 extra trains an hour will allow passengers to travel right through central London without having to change trains, reducing journey times to a number of destinations across the capital.

Network Rail has begun work to build the new station at Abbey Wood as part of the Crossrail programme.
The first of more than 100 piled foundations which will support the new station have been installed. The piling will continue until the end of the year, when the building will start to become visible above ground. The station, which will be built over two new dedicated Crossrail tracks and those used by North Kent services, will open at the end of 2017.
Work has been underway in Abbey Wood since 2013 and has included the construction of an interim station, the demolition of the old station and the installation of a new one mile section of track.
Matthew White, Crossrail Surface Director said: “Crossrail will help to transform Abbey Wood, dramatically improving transport links and bringing a state-of the-art station. A train every five minutes at peak times will make it quicker and easier to get to a range of destinations across London and the South East.”
Matthew Steele, Crossrail Programme Director at Network Rail said: “It’s great news that the construction of the new station is underway. As part of our railway upgrade plan, we are on schedule to provide people in Abbey Wood with a fantastic new station by the end of 2017. Local people will benefit from a spacious new ticket hall, step-free access to every platform and better access to local bus services.”
The new station at Abbey Wood will include:
A bright, spacious concourse that leads directly onto a wide forecourt connecting the station to the Harrow Manorway flyover, which runs above the station
Two new ‘island’ platforms for Crossrail and North Kent services
Six lifts to help passengers get around the station and to provide step-free access to every platform.
From 2018, a train every five minutes during the peak will allow residents to travel right through the capital without having to change trains. The journey from Abbey Wood to Canary Wharf and Bond Street with TfL-run Crossrail will be around 20 minutes quicker and passengers travelling to Heathrow will be able to cut around 40 minutes off their journey.

Network Rail has successfully delivered a £30m package of work for the Crossrail project as part of one of the biggest Easter investment programmes ever carried out on Britain’s railways.
More than 3,000 workers were out on the railway over the four-day Easter weekend carrying out carefully planned work which will ultimately integrate the new Crossrail tunnels beneath London with the existing rail network. This is vital as three quarters of the Crossrail route – which will be known as the Elizabeth line from December 2018 – will run above ground through outer London, Berkshire and Essex, bringing 1.5 million more people to within 45 minutes of central London.

Woman Sought In Train 'Racial Abuse' Inquiry
Witnesses are being sought after a video appearing to show a woman racially abusing fellow train passengers was posted online.
Police have launched an appeal for witnesses after a video appearing to show a woman racially abusing passengers on a train was posted on the internet.
British Transport Police have released CCTV images of a woman they would like to speak to about the incident, which is believed to have taken place on a Woolwich Arsenal to Abbey Wood train in south east London on Tuesday.
It came after a 40-second clip appeared on YouTube showing a middle-aged passenger arguing with other commuters on board a busy train.
During the film, the woman is heard shouting "go home where you belong".
Detective Inspector Jeremy Walley, investigating the incident, said: "We have isolated images of a woman we believe may be able to help us with our investigation into the incident, which took place around 3.20pm.
"At this stage, we urge anyone who witnessed this incident, or who recognises the woman, to get in touch and help us build up a full picture of exactly what took place.
"We treat all allegations of racism very seriously and urge anyone with information about this incident to contact us."

The former station building at Abbey Wood has been demolished by Network Rail as part of work to transform services in the local area for Crossrail.
The station building was opened in May 1987 but has been removed to make way for a new, landmark station being constructed by Network Rail.
Matthew White, Crossrail Surface Director said: “This is another major milestone for the works taking place in Abbey Wood to transform rail services for local people. The arrival of Crossrail in 2018 will significantly increase the number of trains serving the local area and, for the first time, allow people to travel right through central London without having to change trains.”
Matthew Steele, Crossrail Programme Director at Network Rail said: “With the demolition of the former building, we’re one step closer to providing people in Abbey Wood with a brand new, landmark station with state of the art facilities. When the new station opens, passengers will benefit from a spacious ticket hall, step free-access to every platform and an improved connection with local bus services.”
As part of the new station at Abbey Wood, there will be a bright, spacious concourse and ticket hall linking directly onto Harrow Manorway, the dual carriageway that runs above the station. New lifts will provide step-free access to every platform.
In addition to the new station, two miles of new track is being laid between Abbey Wood and the tunnel portal at Plumstead. This section of track is now half complete.
Crossrail represents the single biggest addition to the local rail network since the North Kent line was built in 1849. From 2018, a train every five minutes during the peak will allow residents to travel right through the capital without having to change trains. The journey from Abbey Wood to Canary Wharf and Bond Street will be around 20 minutes quicker and passengers travelling to Heathrow will be able to cut around 40 minutes off their journey.
An interim station, in place to serve Southeastern passengers while the new station is built, opened in October 2014.

Uproar as MoD brings in American giants to manage military procurement
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/uproar-as-mod-brings-in-american-giants-to-manage-military-procurement-9672666.html
MARK LEFTLY Author Biography ASSOCIATE BUSINESS EDITOR Saturday 16 August 2014
Unions and industry insiders are up in arms because two US engineering companies have been asked to oversee the way in which the Ministry of Defence runs the £14bn arm that buys military kit.
The Independent can reveal that San Francisco-based Bechtel and Denver’s CH2M Hill have bagged the programme management contracts for the Bristol-based Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S;). This agency buys and looks after everything from forklift trucks to Astute class submarines, but is being overhauled by the Government so as to get better value for the taxpayer.
The companies were told earlier this week that they had won the contracts to transform the way in which these crucial items are bought, in what are known as managed service provider (MSP) roles.
Bechtel will look after the navy and RAF, while CH2M Hill will work with DE&S; on army and joint-command projects. Detailed negotiations start next week and these talks will be important as the roles are widely considered to be vaguely defined.
CH2M Hill, which worked on the 2012 Olympics, and Bechtel, which has overseen the construction of a 21-kilometre tunnel for London’s Crossrail, have few suitable British employees to fill these contracts. Industry insiders estimate that they will need 150 to 200 staff.
Sources said around half of these experts will be flown in from the US. This would cost around £5m more than just using British staff, with the remuneration including food and accommodation expenses. An industry insider said: “Two US firms running this is not the ideal option – that’s what worries me the most. They don’t have the indigenous capability.”
The source added that the MoD had failed to pay enough attention to an area of such sensitive national security being awarded to overseas companies. However, MoD sources that “a fair and open competition” has been run.
A spokesman for the Public and Commercial Services Union said: “We are very concerned indeed that there isn’t the skills base in the UK to make this happen. We’ve asked again and again for a guaranteed skills transfer to the existing workforce.”
Separately, the reforms also involve the private sector taking over DE&S;’s human resources department. It is understood that all of the Big Four accountancy firms bid for this role and that PwC has landed the contract.
The MoD is highly sensitive about the reforms of DE&S.; Last year, ministers tried to semi-privatise the agency in what was known as a “Go-Co” – government-owned, contractor operated – model.
This plan collapsed over lack of competition after CH2M Hill decided against bidding for the contract at the last moment, leaving Bechtel as the only bidder.
It was thought that CH2M Hill would struggle to win any further significant work in the more limited reforms that are known as “DE&S-Plus”. One industry source said he was “staggered” that it had won the two contracts.
An MoD spokesperson said: “Negotiations to bring in managed service providers are still under way in order to secure the best value for the taxpayer. It would be inappropriate to comment further at this point. We plan to award contracts next month.”

This plan collapsed over lack of competition after CH2M Hill decided against bidding for the contract at the last moment, leaving Bechtel as the only bidder.
It was thought that CH2M Hill would struggle to win any further significant work in the more limited reforms that are known as “DE&S-Plus”. One industry source said he was “staggered” that it had won the two contracts.
An MoD spokesperson said: “Negotiations to bring in managed service providers are still under way in order to secure the best value for the taxpayer. It would be inappropriate to comment further at this point. We plan to award contracts next month.”

Ireland travel is about taking a journey into the magical. The rugged beauty of the land is matched only by the hospitality of the people. While taking a tour of Ireland you should always include time to travel West Cork.
Many people travel Ireland to have a unique experience. Whether you go to see the jagged coastline pounded under the relentless power of the Atlantic Ocean, walk the paths, climb the rocky hills, fish from a quiet pier, sit on a sandy beach, take photographs of the Irish countryside or cycle the winding roads; a visit to the scenic area of West Cork is a must.
For those interested in Ireland travel deals and tips, you will have no trouble finding something to suit you. One travel deal/tip you may not know about concerns the pub. If you are traveling with kids and don't want to buy soda, you can ask for tap water with flavored fruit syrups. This will save about $3 per small bottle of Coke or Pepsi, and the kids will enjoy it too!
There are many Ireland travel packages available on-line. The types of trips available are really only limited by what you want. Many of the packages include all the things you need to enjoy your trip including air travel, car hire and lodging. These packages can be booked to cover a few days or even weeks.

Begin your tour of West Cork at Mizen Head, Ireland's most southwesterly point. The dramatic peninsula features Barley Cove beach and is highlighted by the Mizen Head Signal Station Visitor Centre. Be sure to look for seals lazily resting on the rocks below.
The best pub in the entire world is located in the small village of Crookhaven. As you walk into O'Sullivan's Bar, the owner, Dermot O'Sullivan, will greet you with a friendly, "Hello boys and girls." What happens if you try to order a Guinness? You don't want to know. Go with the Murphy's; it's local and creamier!
Possibly the most beautiful place in all of West Cork is Three Castle Head. The collection of three towers, built in 1207 by the O'Mahoneys, is a short hike from Dunlough Pier. The castles sit on cliffs, which offer views of the Atlantic Ocean, Mizen Head, Sheep's Head and the mountains of County Kerry. At the base of the castles is a lake. Irish legend holds that a lady haunts the lake while protecting the king's valuables that were thrown in to guard them from attackers.
Between the villages of Goleen and Durrus, you will find the Coast Road. On this road is the well-preserved O'Mahoney Castle known as Dunmanus Castle. The castle was built in 1430 at the current location of Dunmanus Harbor. Views of the beautiful Irish countryside and Dunmanus Bay will have you reaching for your camera.
Further along, near the village of Skibbereen is the area of Lough Hyne. Lough Hyne is a salt-water lake, fed by the tides, and is home to a varied collection of marine life. Above the lake are the walking paths of Knockamagh Wood Nature Reserve. The paths of the nature preserve lead you to commanding views of Roaringwater Bay, Baltimore harbor and Clear and Sherkin Islands.
Up the coast, near the County Kerry border, is the fishing village of Castletownbere. The village is situated on the southern edge of the Beara Peninsula and is near the beginning of the southern portion of the Ring of Beara. Just out of town are the ruins of Dunboy Castle, which was destroyed by the English in 1602 after a 14-day siege.
Leaving the West Cork area, head up to Bantry Bay, through Glengarriff and Kenmare up to the pride of County Kerry, Killarney. The town of Killarney is filled with a nice mix of nature and history. A visit to the Muckross area; including the house, abbey and gardens is very enjoyable. You can easily spend a full day taking in this incredible area. So, what is the best part of it all? You only have to park once as all these sites are within walking distance of each other.
If you are heading back to Dublin, a stop in Cashel is very enjoyable. The Rock of Cashel is world-famous and awe inspiring. A little known abbey in Cashel is Hore Abbey that sits at the bottom of the hill in the shadows of the Rock of Cashel. Hore Abbey will be less crowded and will allow peaceful exploring without crowds.

Messina is in the northeast of Sicily, Italy. It is only 5 km across the Straits of Messina to the region of Calabria on the mainland.
See in Messina, Sicily, Italy
=========================
Novara di Sicilia - Located in the province of Messina on the northern side of Mt. Etna, this picturesque medieval town is nestled in the mountains overlooking ancient Tyndaris and Abacaenum. It is the archetype of a typical medieval town, with its friendly and accommodating people who speak a distinctive dialect.
Do in Messina, Sicily, Italy
=======================
Visit Torre Faro, the former electricity pylon over Messina Strait. It is a 224 metres tall lattice tower, which is today an observation tower with an observation platform on 200 metres. Unfortunately you have to walk 1250 steps up and down, but the great view on the huge structure and the good view over Messina Strait is surely worth it!
Eat in Messina, Sicily, Italy
======================
The best pizza in town is Pizza Capitano just off Piazza Cairoli. The owner is a little gruff however the wood oven gives an authentic Sicilian flavor. Its also excellent value and is always busy especially during Series A football matches when the atmosphere reaches fever pitch.
Al Gattopardo, Via Santa Cecilia, 184, ☎ +39 090 673076.
Bacco, Via Cernaia, 15, ☎ +39 0090 771420.
Momento Ristorante, Via Mario Giurba 29, ☎ +39 090 6409781.
For visitors there for just a day, look for family pastry store that offer cannoli... a genuine Sicilian treat.

Novara di Sicilia - Located in the province of Messina on the northern side of Mt. Etna, this picturesque medieval town is nestled in the mountains overlooking ancient Tyndaris and Abacaenum. It is the archetype of a typical medieval town, with its friendly and accommodating people who speak a distinctive dialect.
Do in Messina, Sicily, Italy
=======================
Visit Torre Faro, the former electricity pylon over Messina Strait. It is a 224 metres tall lattice tower, which is today an observation tower with an observation platform on 200 metres. Unfortunately you have to walk 1250 steps up and down, but the great view on the huge structure and the good view over Messina Strait is surely worth it!
Eat in Messina, Sicily, Italy
======================
The best pizza in town is Pizza Capitano just off Piazza Cairoli. The owner is a little gruff however the wood oven gives an authentic Sicilian flavor. Its also excellent value and is always busy especially during Series A football matches when the atmosphere reaches fever pitch.
Al Gattopardo, Via Santa Cecilia, 184, ☎ +39 090 673076.

Momento Ristorante, Via Mario Giurba 29, ☎ +39 090 6409781.
For visitors there for just a day, look for family pastry store that offer cannoli... a genuine Sicilian treat.

No.1 Royal Crescent is a Georgian town house that creates a vital picture of life in Georgian Bath. Built between 1767 -- 1774 to the designs of the architect John Wood the Younger, the Royal Crescent is justly considered one of the finest achievements of 18th century urban architecture and represents the highest point of Palladian architecture in Bath. No.1 was the first house to be built in the Crescent and originally provided luxury accommodation for the aristocratic visitors who came to take the waters and enjoy the social season. Each room is an exquisite example of Georgian interior design with authentic furniture, paintings, textiles and carpets. The Dining Room is set for dessert whilst the elegant Drawing Room is ready for fashionable visitors to take tea. The Gentleman's Retreat reveals the interests of No.1's first resident, Mr Henry Sandford, including travel and discoveries, electricity and agriculture as well as local gossip and news. Upstairs are a Gentleman's and a Lady's bedroom, with original paraphernalia and fittings. Below stairs are the original kitchen and scullery, coal-holes and servant's corridors, the Housekeeper's Room and Servants' Hall. Guides in every room bring the house to life with stories of the past. (Presented by Caroline Kay)

"Roman Bath" is the original constructed by Ancient Roman and it is located in the center of Bath, few steps from Bath Abbey. The first shrine at the site of the hot springs was built by Celts, and was dedicated to the goddess Sulis, whom the Romans identified with Minerva. The spring was discovered in in 836 BC by the British king Bladud who built the first baths. Romans built the Temple in 60-70 AD and the bathing complex was gradually built up over the next 300 years.The spring is now housed in 18th-century buildings, designed by architects John Wood, the Elder and John Wood, the Younger, father and son. Visitors drank the waters in the Grand Pump Room, a neo-classical salon which remains in use, both for taking the waters and for social functions. Victorian expansion of the baths complex followed the neo-classical tradition established by the Woods. In 1810 the Hot Springs failed and William Smith opened up the Hot Bath Spring to the bottom, where he found that the spring had not failed but had flowed into a new channel. Smith restored the water to its original course and the Baths filled in less time than formerly. The Grand Pump Room was begun in 1789 by Thomas Baldwin. He resigned in 1791 and John Palmer continued the scheme until its completion in 1799.The elevation on to Abbey Church Yard has a centre piece of four engaged Corinthian columns with entablatures and pediment. It has been designated by English Heritage as a grade I listed building. The north colonnade was also designed by Thomas Baldwin. The south colonnade is similar but had an upper floor added in the late 19th century. The museum and Queen's Bath including the "Bridge" spanning York Street to the City Laundry were by Charles Edward Davis in 1889. Presented by Gladys Powney.

Bath is a city in the ceremonial county of Somerset, South West England, that is known for the curative Roman-built baths that still exist there. In 2011, its population was 88,859.[1] Bath is located 97 miles (156 km) west of London and 11 miles (18 km) south-east of Bristol. The city, in the valley of the River Avon, became a World Heritage Site in 1987.
The city became a spa with the Latin name Aquae Sulis ("the waters of Sulis") c. AD 60 when the Romans built baths and a temple in the valley of the River Avon although oral tradition suggests that the hot springs were known even before then. Bath Abbey was founded in the 7th century and became a religious centre; the building was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries. In the 17th century, claims were made for the curative properties of the water from the springs, and Bath became popular as a spa town during the Georgian era, leaving a heritage of Georgian architecture crafted from Bath stone, including the Royal Crescent, Circus, Pump Room and Assembly Rooms where Beau Nash presided over the city's social life from 1705 until his death in 1761. Many of the streets and squares were laid out by John Wood, the Elder, and in the 18th century the city became fashionable and the population grew. Jane Austen lived in Bath in the early 19th century. Further building was undertaken in the 19th century and following the Bath Blitz in World War II.
Manufacturing has been in decline in the city, but it has strong software, publishing and service-oriented industries. The city's theatres, museums, and other cultural and sporting venues have helped to make it a major centre for tourism with more than one million staying visitors and 3.8 million day visitors to the city each year. There are several museums including the Museum of Bath Architecture, Victoria Art Gallery, Museum of East Asian Art, and the Holburne Museum. The city has two universities: the University of Bath and Bath Spa University, with Bath College providing further education. Sporting clubs include Bath Rugby and Bath City F.C. while TeamBath is the umbrella name for all of the University of Bath sports teams.
Bath became part of the county of Avon in 1974, and, following Avon's abolition in 1996, has been the principal centre of Bath and North East Somerset.

Take a tour of French Village of Monpazier in Monpazier, France -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
Concealed in the Dordogne region of Southwest France is a vintage town out of the medieval era known as Monpazier.
The plaza at the heart of the town is the centerpiece around which the entire grid structure of the city is based.
The medieval buildings built of sandstone, blocks of stone with wood panels, and lovely arches are laid out around the town.
Its humble origins as a 13th century bastide have ensured its immaculate layout has lasted through the centuries.
The medieval architecture retained by the gorgeous stones and vibrantly painted wooden shutters exude warmth and charisma.
A testament to the importance of this small town is its recent honor of being deemed a National Heritage Site, which has meant its permanent preservation.

http://www.foyles.co.uk/witem/travel-maps/this-other-london-adventures-in-the,john-rogers-russell-brand-9780007494279
About the book
Join John Rogers as he ventures out into an uncharted London like a redbrick Indiana Jones in search of the lost meaning of our metropolitan existence. Nursing two reluctant knees and a can of Stella, he perambulates through the seasons seeking adventure in our city's remote and forgotten reaches.
When John Rogers packed away his rucksack to start a family in London he didn't stop travelling. But instead of canoeing up the Rejang River to find retired headhunters in Sarawak, he caught the ferry to Woolwich in search of the edge of the city at Crayford Marshes.
This Other London recounts that journey and many others -- all on foot and epic in their own cartilage-crunching way. Clutching a samosa and a handful of out-of-date A-Zs, he heads out into the wilderness of isolated luxury apartment blocks in Brentford, the ruins of Lesnes Abbey near Thamesmead, and the ancient Lammas Lands in Leyton.
Denounced by his young sons as a 'hippy wizard', Rogers delves into some of the overlooked stories rumbling beneath the tarmac of the city suburbs. Holy wells in Lewisham; wassailing in Clapton; a heretical fresco in West Ham. He encounters the Highwaymen of Hounslow Heath, Viet Cong vets still fighting Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket in Beckton, Dutch sailors marooned at Erith pier; and cyclists -- without Bradley Wiggins' sideburns -- at Herne Hill Velodrome. He heads out to Uxendon Hill to witness the end of the world, Horsenden Hill to learn its legend, and Tulse Hill to the observatory of the Victorian Brian Cox.
This Other London will take you into the hinterland of the city. The London that is lived in; the London where workaday dormitory suburbs sit atop a rich history that could rival Westminster and Tower Bridge. In an age when no corner of the globe has been left untrampled-upon by hordes of tourists, it is time to discover the wonders on our doorstep.
This Other London is your gateway through the underexplored nooks of London. As Pathfinder wrote in 1911, 'Adventure begins at home'.
Reviews

The sixth day of my South American trip.
Today was spent on a bus tour around the Sacred Valley in Cusco, Peru.
Our first stop is on a road with on overlook of the Sacred. Valley. Followed by a 20 minute stop at a market where I pick up a wood carving. From here we make another photography stop.
The first real stop is at Pisac, here we are told about it for about ten minutes and given 20 minutes to explore, and this is very, very insufficient you could spend at least 5 hours here, I rush around to take some pictures and then we have to leave.
Next we stop for lunch at the Sonesta Posadas Del Inca in Yucay which used to be a monastery before it became a hotel and restaurant, the food is of a very high standard and I explore a bit after I have eaten. We spend an hour and a half here which is way to long half an hour would have been sufficient.
We then head over to Ollantaytambo which tales a little over an hour, when we get there we are told about the place for ten minutes then told we have 20 minutes to explore, again this is way to short a time. I basically run (ok maybe walk briskly) to the top and then have to come back down again, it is such a waste I get a chance to visit these wonderful places and don't have any time to see them properly, especially when you consider we spend longer at lunch than we did at the two major archaeological sites in the area combined.
The final stop of the day is Chinchero, here we see how they make the wool used in clothing, it was quite interesting and we spend about 20 minutes here.
We then head back to Cusco. I do think that this tour could have made such better use of time; the two guides were great so were the other passengers I just feel I did not get to see or experience what I wanted out of this tour.

Opeth
Ghost of Mother
Lingering death
Ghost on Mother's bed
Black strands on the pillow
Contour of her health
Twisted face upon the head
Ghost of perdition
Stuck in her chest
A warning no one read
Tragic friendship
Called inside the fog
Pouring venom brew deceiving
Devil cracked the earthly shell
Foretold she was the one
Blew hope into the room and said:
"You have to live before you die young"
Holding her down
Channeling darkness
Hemlock for the Gods
Fading resistance
Draining the weakness
Penetrating inner light
Road into the dark unaware
Winding ever higher
Darkness by her side
Spoke and passed her by
Dedicated hunter
Waits to pull us under
Rose up to its call
In his arms she'd fall
Mother light received
And a faithful servant's free
In time the hissing of her sanity
Faded out her voice and soiled her name
And like marked pages in a diary
Everthing seemed clean that is unstained
The incoherent talk of ordinary days
Why would we really need to live?
Decide what is clear and what's within a haze
What you should take and what to give
Ghost of perdition
A saint's premonition's unclear
Keeper of holy hordes
Keeper of holy whores
To see a beloved son
In despair of what's to come
If one cut the source of the flow
And everything would change
Would conviction fall
In the shadow of the righteous
The phantasm of your mind
Might be calling you to go
Defying the forgotten mortals
