Abstract:
Despite published accounts suggesting the absence of solstitial alignments built into the architecture of the stone circle complex within the classic henge at Avebury, north Wiltshire, UK, empirical observations show that the group of stones and the space between them known as the Cove opens towards the midsummer sunrise. Although the window of visibility looking out from the Cove is broad, the sunrise position, on Monkton Down, is central to the field of view. A dip in the henge bank and the presence of a round barrow on the skyline serve to emphasise the point on the horizon where the Sun fi

Disposal of secondary materials is intended for the conservation of natural resources and the speedy maintenance of travels, as it is necessary to dispose of them in special missions.

On the current year in Ukraine, there is no food utilization in the industry, that is why this part is located at the doorways that carry in itself a great risk for ecology, and only insignificant part is to be utilized in future events.

Abstract:
Tyndall Stone is a distinctively mottled and strikingly fossiliferous dolomitic limestone that has been widely used for over a century in Canada, especially in the Prairie Provinces. It comprises 6–8 m within the lower part of the 43 m thick Selkirk Member of the Red River Formation, of Late Ordovician (Katian) age. It has been quarried exclusively at Garson, Manitoba, 37 km northeast of Winnipeg, since about 1895, and for the past half-century extraction has been carried out solely by Gillis Quarries Ltd. The upper beds tend to be more buff-coloured than the grey lower beds, as a result of gr

Abstract:
The greater horseshoe bat Rhinolophus ferrumequinum is a rare species in the UK that relies heavily on undisturbed stone buildings in which to breed. Barn owls Tyto alba are also a protected species that roost and raise their broods in similar places. This overlap in roosting requirements can lead to barn owls moving into buildings containing well-established greater horseshoe bat maternity colonies. This in turn could result in disturbance and abandonment of the building by the bats. Such an event occurred at one of the largest greater horseshoe bat roosts in the UK in 2018 when the colony de

The results of the research allow a reliable restoration of the original appearance of the entrances to the living rooms of the building. The doorways of the hujras belonged to the same type, with inconsiderable difference of dimensions at some places.

Abstract:
The Cistercian Abbey at Dundrennan (NX747 474) has a very large collection of ex situ carved and moulded stones. While this collection was being catalogued (2003–6), a group of about 20 pieces, most of them of a substantial size, were found to be related and are now stored in one of the vaults along the west side of the cloisters at Dundrennan. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that these fragments came from a two-sided screen with miniature vaults and a processional doorway, to discuss sources and to date the screen.

Abstract This chapter examines the various types of surviving stone thresholds in Insulae VIII.7 and I.1. Most of the thresholds survive only for the retail doorways along the streetfront; very few thresholds were recovered from any of the doorways within the properties. These retail thresholds are known throughout Pompeii and many other Roman cities, identifiable through their generally wider openings that employed narrow horizontal grooves to accommodate a sliding screen door; at one end, a squared opening in the threshold stone allowed for a night-door to provide access when the screen was

Some of the roofless stone remnants of the chapel walls were still high enough to show the outline of simple gothic windows and doorways, with a profusion of fiercely competing tangled plants making a wilderness where its floor used to be.

Abstract Nowhere is the social significance of female aristocratic convents more evident than in baroque Naples. Shaped and defined by religious institutions and princely palaces, the city is scoured by narrow crevasses of sunless streets, lined with looming convents and monasteries, sealed to the outside world like sheer dark cliffs. From afar, the dominance of religious institutions is immediately evident. From Castel Sant’Elmo, the Angevin castle rebuilt in the sixteenth century, high to the west of Naples, the city cascades dramatically and unevenly down the slopes to the sea like a huge r

In the winter of 1995–6, a Late Bronze Age house was excavated at Callestick in Cornwall (Jones 1998). This showed an interesting sequence of activities on its abandonment. First, the timber posts that had supported its roof were removed and the sockets of those at the centre of the building were filled with materials that included charcoal, pottery, quartz, and fragments of rubbing stones. The low stone wall that originally surrounded the structure was pushed into the interior of the building, and a series of quartz blocks were placed across the doorway, as if to prevent access.

The clothes left to soak overnight made the air damp, filling it with the sour smell of cheap soap.
