5WA was a British Broadcasting Company (later BBC) radio station which broadcast from Cardiff, Wales, between 1923 and 1927.
"A plaque commemorating the first public broadcast in Wales on 13 February 1923, from the radio station 5WA, an indirect ancestor of BBC Radio Wales. It broadcast from a tiny studio at the former Castle Picture Theatre." from https://www.thecastleemporium.co.uk/the-history
Birmingham was the first British city outside London to have a radio service from the newly formed British Broadcasting Company, with 5IT starting regular broadcasting from its Witton base at 17:00 on 15 November 1922,[1]: 207 one day after 2LO started daily BBC broadcasting from London[1]: 157 and one hour before the 18:00 launch of Manchester's 2ZY.[1]: 161 5IT pioneered many innovations in early broadcasting, launching Children's Hour in 1922,[2] developing sophisticated methods of programme control and employing the first full-time announcers in 1923.[3] The station's first announcer on its opening night was its general manager Percy Edgar,[3] who was to be the dominant figure in Birmingham broadcasting and the BBC's most influential regional director until his retirement in 1948.[4]: 311
5IT moved its studios from Witton to a former cinema in New Street in 1923, moving again in 1926 to a completely new building in Broad Street with two studios – one of the largest the country,[5] if not Europe. The Broad Street studios now controlled and made programmes for a region stretching across central England from The Potteries to Norfolk.
From 21 August 1927 the low-powered city station 5IT was replaced by the 5GB (the BBC Midland Region) – the first of the BBC's regional services[6] – broadcast from the new high powered Daventry transmitting station at Borough Hill near Daventry.[4]: 282
Cardiff claims to have the largest concentration of castles of any city in the world.[7] As well as Cardiff Castle and Castell Coch, there is also the ruined Llandaff Bishop's Palace, also known as Llandaff Castle,[8] which was the home of the medieval bishops, which was destroyed about 1403–1404 by the Welsh leader Owain Glyndŵr. Now only the ruined gatehouse remains.[8] Not strictly a castle in the historical sense, St Fagans Castle is a preserved 17th-century manor house, once the seat of the Earls of Plymouth. In addition, there have been four motte-and-bailey castles in Cardiff, the ruined Morganstown Castle Mound in Morganstown,[9] Twmpath Castle in Rhiwbina,[10] and Caer Castell in Rumney,[11] and lastly the former Treoda Castle Mound in Whitchurch which was completely removed by a housing development in the 1960s.[12][13]

Warkworth Bridge, also known as Warkworth Old Bridge or the Warkworth Medieval Bridge, and its fortified gateway bridge tower is a double-arch stone footbridge, which spans the River Coquet at Warkworth in Northumberland, England. Both the gateway tower, called the Bridge Head Tower and the bridge itself have statutory protection as a scheduled ancient monument and are grade II listed structures. Both structures were built in the late 14th century. Historic England believe that it is the only remaining fortified bridge left in England. A new bridge was constructed and opened on 8th July 1965, which today carries the main A1068 road, and is known as the Warkworth New Bridge.
History
[edit]Warkworth Bridge
[edit]When John Cook of Newcastle died in 1379 he left the sum of 20 marks, or about GB£14, towards the building of a new bridge at Warkworth, on the one condition it was built within two years, otherwise the money would go towards a bridge over the River Tyne at Bywell.[17] It is also possible that Henry Percy, 1st Earl of Northumberland also provided some of the funding towards the cost of construction.[17]
There may also be evidence that this bridge replaced an even earlier stone arched bridge on the same site, but it is also unclear why that earlier bridge had to be replaced.[17] Documentary evidence shows that wardens were in charge of the bridge from at least the 15th century.[18]
Historic England believe that the bridge is the last remaining fortified bridge still standing in England. The bridge is one of only two fortified bridges in the whole of Great Britain, the other being Monnow Bridge in Monmouth.[19] The bridge has been closed to vehicular traffic since the 1960s but is still open to pedestrians.[18]
Warkworth Bridge Head Tower
[edit]The Bridge Head Tower was a gated tollbooth The bridge tower at the southern end originally funnelled all traffic through the arch in its lower storey, which was also gated. This end of the bridge was later widened, presumably to ease congestion under the arch. The bridge tower has a guard chamber on the west side, and there was a room at first floor level, complete with windows allowing an outlook in all four directions. The upper storey is now little more than a roofless ruin, with the walls reduced nearly as far as the base of the windows. It would seem that once the bridge was built it was continuously manned, under the supervision of a custodian, until some time in the 1700s.

(see the help page). The Professional Darts Players Association states that 'each section is separated with metal wire or a thin band of sheet metal'.[20] This is the standard or traditional dartboard, which is known as the London dartboard or the London Clock dartboard, which most dart players use throughtout the world.[21]
History
[edit]The first dartboards looked like a small archery target and were made of wood which were cut from the end of a tree-trunk from either an elm or a poplar tree. its circular shape and concentric rings giving rise to the standard dartboard pattern in use today. An older name for a dartboard is "butt"; the word comes from the French word but, meaning "target" or "goal".[22] These dartboards were home-made by carpenters and wireworkers for their local pubs.[20] Before the 1920s there was no major dartboard manufacturer in England.[20]
Most regions of the United Kingdom at some time had their own version of dartboard.[23] However, the person acknowledged as inventing the modern standard order of numbers on a dartboard (from the top position going clockwise: 20, 1, 18, 4, 13, 6, 10, 15, 2, 17, 3, 19, 7, 16, 8, 11, 14, 9, 12, 5) is Brian Gamlin.[20] Gamlin was from Bury,[20] and was both a carpenter and a showman.[20] The dartboard was designed in 1896,[24] so that big numbers were placed next to small ones, and therefore rewarding accuracy but punishing inaccuracy.[20] However, there is no evidence that Gamlin ever existed.[20] Darts historian Patrick Chaplin believes that the man responsible for the modern standard order of numbers on a dartboard was a Leeds wireworker Thomas Buckle, who designed the sequence in about 1912.[20]
In 1935, chemist Ted Leggatt and pub owner Frank Dabbs began using the century plant, a type of agave, to make dartboards.[25] Small bundles of sisal fibres of the same length were bundled together. The bundles were then compressed into a disk and bound with a metal ring. This new dartboard was an instant success. It was more durable and required little maintenance. Furthermore, darts did little or no damage to the board; they simply parted the packed fibres when they entered the board.

From https://www.dartbase.com/Sect1/14.html
- London Board - named for it's initially strong popularity in that city.
- Yorkshire or Doubles board is similar to the London board but has no outer bull, no triples ring and a narrow 1/4" doubles ring. (The London board has 3/8" rings.) Sometimes, it is made with an all-black face. https://www.reddragondarts.com/winmau-yorkshire-dartboard-z0040
- Tonbridge board is similar to the Yorkshire board but with one important difference. The usual doubles become triples and doubles are scored on triangular beds on the inside of them.
- Staffordshire or Burton board is also similar to the Yorkshire board but has two diamond-shaped scoring areas outside the doubles ring. One is placed between the wire numbers 14 and 9 on one side while the other is located between the 4 and 13 on the other. These are worth 25 points each and can be used as an out shot on that number. There is also an outer bull.
- East End board (also known as the Fives dartboard or the East End Fives dartboard) has only twelve segments or pies instead of the 20 found on the London board. They are numbered (clockwise from the top) 10, 20, 5, 15, 10, 20, 5, 15, 10, 20, 5, 15 and have 1/4" (or narrower) doubles and triples rings. https://patrickchaplin.com/2019/05/22/the-east-end-fives-board/
- Manchester or Log-End board is probably the most distinctive one of all. It is numbered (again, clockwise from the top) 4, 20, 1, 16, 6, 17, 8, 12, 9, 14, 5, 19, 2, 15, 3, 18, 7, 11, 10, 13 and is much smaller than other boards with a 10" playing area and 1/4" doubles.
From https://patrickchaplin.com/2019/10/07/regional-dartboards/
- The LINCOLN BOARD looks pretty much like the Yorkshire board – same numbering and single bull – but it is all black and until a few years ago, was actually slightly larger. https://www.reddragondarts.com/winmau-lincoln-dartboard-z0042
- The KENT BOARD looks exactly like the Lincoln board and again, used to be much larger, but has been brought to standard width.
- The IRISH BOARD is indistinguishable from the Lincoln and Kent boards. It is still advertised by retailers, but no-one seems to play it anymore.
- MANLON board is a strange hybrid – a London, or standard board, reduced to the size of a Manchester log-end board.
- The CHAMPIONS CHOICE dartboard is a London, or standard board with narrower doubles and trebles. Again, the theory was that practise here would improve your game on the usual board.
- The QUADRO, The top score with three darts was thus 240, rather than 180 and in theory you could get out in three darts on 210, with two quadruple twenties and an inner bull. Phil Taylor played the board on television in the 1990’s

The concession at the 1969 Ryder Cup regarded as one of the greatest acts of sportsmanship ever seen in golf or anywhere else and many, including Jacklin, believe it set a tone for the event that lasts to this day. With 31 matches completed, it was 15½-15½. Jacklin made a monster putt for eagle on the 17th hole to square the match, and both players were on the green in two at the par-4 18th with the 17-inch, gold Cup awaiting the victor.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/extra/zBjyQun5Pk/Crazy-golf-UK-1 The St Andrews Ladies' Putting Club, later known as the Putting Club, in Scotland is thought to be the first minigolf course ever made. It is now commonly known as The Himalayas owing to its tricky peaks and troughs. It is open to the public (of all sexes) nowadays, but when it was founded in 1867, it was designed as entertainment for the sisters and daughters of the golf club’s members.
https://www.scottishgolfhistory.org/early-womens-golf/ii-early-womens-golf-clubs/ Towards the middle of the 19th century, there was a caddies' putting green beside the 17th hole at St Andrews, and women golfers began using this and displaced the caddies, but it would be some time later before women were granted playing rights over the Old Course. In 1855, Mrs Wolfe-Murray, daughter of the distinguished golfer John Whyte Melville, was seen playing regularly on the links at St Andrews with two golf clubs and was the subject of some public comment and even criticism. Sadly she died a few years later after giving birth. In 1867 a women’s group began playing golf, or at least putting, at St Andrews, supported by many including Old Tom Morris. Initially known as the St Andrews Ladies Golf Club, it later become the St Andrews Ladies Putting Club and is now The Ladies Putting Club of St Andrews. It still plays over the 'Himalayas' 18-hole putting green, located near the visitors' clubhouse. Local newspaper reports say the club struggled initially and the golf strokes were of the 'putting variety'. However, 19 years later it had 500 members. Their first president was Madeleine Boothby, the wife of an R&A member, Colonel Robert Boothby. Though it runs the Himalayas green, the Ladies Putting Club does not own a clubhouse.
