Editor's Notes
- These are Images of what I took on our trip to Greenwich with art. This is at the royal naval college which has painted hall which I found the most interesting thing in the college. I also liked the museum that was there too.
- These are the pictures I took of Trinity Buoy Wharf. I really liked how it was new and old. It appealed to me because it was really different to the college as it made the old things into something new even if they have the qualities of old.
- These are my different studies which I did on our day out. I really like the one on the far right as it has a lot of detail. It took me a long time to draw it as there was so many elements on this candle stick. The original colour of this art work is gold but I thought using black ink would be more effective instead of using water colour or acrylic that would be really time consuming.
- These are my drawings of things that where in Trinity Buoy Wharf. I really like the one on the far right as it has the shapes but all on top of one another as it is a building which I found really interesting as they are crates and someone designed it like that. It really inspired me with different shapes.
- Trinity House had its headquarters in a fine building in the City designed by the great James Wyatt in 1798, and established Trinity Buoy Wharf as its Thames-side workshop in 1803. At first wooden buoys and sea marks were made and stored here, and a mooring was provided for the Trinity House yacht, which was used to lay the buoys and collect them for maintenance and repair. The river wall along the Lea was rebuilt in brick in 1822, making this the oldest surviving structure on the site. The original lighthouse was built by the engineer of Trinity House, James Walker, in 1852, and was demolished in the late 1920s. The surviving lighthouse was built in 1864-6 by James Douglass for Trinity House.
- Naval College use to be a hospital for the veterans but that stopped after the British navy stopped. It was also the birth place of Henry VIII. in accordance with the wishes of his late wife, Queen Mary II. It has the painted hall which was created by someone who then was never paid for the hard work he did in making the hall spectacular even though he paited hisself in the wall so that he can be remembered. The final blocks were completed by Thomas Ripley between 1735 and 1751. Occupation by naval pensioners continued for over a century until reduced numbers finally forced the closure of the Hospital in 1869. The buildings were re-opened in 1873 as the Royal Naval College for the education of officers, with the Joint Services Defence College arriving in 1983.
- The different building where named after royals. The links between each of the two places is the water that connects them they aren’t even that far from each other and that they are both surrounded by whater.
