The previous record- also held by Park Place-was set in 2007, when developer Mike Spink paid £42m for the un-refurbished [...]

British towns are starting to scrap their twinning arrangements with continental counterparts. Why are they doing so, and do such links have any purpose in the 21st Century?
At first glance, there’s very little that Glasgow, Scotland, and Havana, Cuba, have in common.
Likewise, it’s not easy to spot similarities between the genteel Oxfordshire town of Henley-on-Thames and the Somali city of Borama, or indeed Sunderland and Washington DC.
And yet all three pairs of settlements are formally pledged to the closest bond [...]

Convinced that there was a market for organic baby food which was not only healthy and free from preservatives but also fun for children, Paul began to research the market.
In 2006 he left his job as deputy managing director of children’s TV [...]

Simon Tudor doesn’t just take his friends on a boat trip………..He likes to turn the whole event into a film trailer.
One of the benefits of writing this column is that every so often I receive a huge book in the post from The Victoria History of the Counties of England, commonly known as the Victoria County History (VCH) — which proclaims itself (justifiably) to be “without doubt the greatest publishing project in English local history”.
