title: Nagendra Prasad Sarbadhikari

text:
Nagendra Prasad Sarbadhikary (also Sarbadhikari; ; 1869–1940) was an Indian educationist, sports administrator and football pioneer. He is widely regarded as the "Father of Indian Football" for his role in founding the first Indian football organisations after introducing the sport to his fellow classmates at Hare School.

Early life and family
Sarbadhikari was born on 27 August 1869 in Calcutta (now Kolkata, West Bengal), India into the renowned Sarbadhikari family originally hailing from Radhanagar (Khanakul) situated in Hooghly district. His father was Brigadier, Rai Bahadur Dr. Surya Kumar Sarbadhikari (1832–1904), a surgeon who served during the Sepoy Mutiny or Indian Rebellion of 1857 against the rule of the East India Company.

The Sarbadhikari family was founded during the early 15th century by Sureshwar Bosu of Choa ("Choa" is a village situated in Murshidabad district of present-day West Bengal), who was appointed Governor of Orissa province with the hereditary title of "Sarbadhikari" by the Imperial Court of Delhi.

He had 7 brothers and 2 sisters. Of the brothers, the names of Sir Deb Prasad Sarbadhikari who became Vice Chancellor of the University of Calcutta (1914–1918), and Suresh Prasad Sarbadhikari (1866–1921), an eminent surgeon of British India who organized the Bengal Ambulance Corps to serve in the Mesopotamia War during World War I, and managed the Carmichael Medical College & Hospital, Calcutta (now R.G. Kar Medical College & Hospital) with Dr. Radha Gobinda Kar can be mentioned.

He was married to Krishnakamalini, daughter of Ananda Krishna Deb, belonging to the Sovabazar Raj family.

Works and activities
It was Nagendra Prasad who taught the game to his classmates at the Hare School compound in 1877, after he observed British soldiers playing the game in the ground of Calcutta FC. He then convinced his friends about the game and bought a ball from Messrs Manton & Co. in Bowbazar, and was later assisted and guided by professor of the Presidency College, G. A. Stack. Thus, attracted by the enthusiasm of the boys, the European teachers of the school and adjacent colleges encouraged Nagendra Prasad and his companions to promote the game among other students in and around Calcutta. The very next day Nagendra and his friends started playing football on school premises. The Boys' Club, founded by Nagendra Prasad in 1880, along with his royal friend Nagendra Mullick around this time, was the first Indian initiative to create a football organization.

Later, he formed a string of sporting clubs in Calcutta in the 1880s, one of the first being the Wellington Club in 1884. Wellington Club was formed as merger of all three of his own clubs: Boys Club, Friends Club, and Presidency Club. India's first football coach Dukhiram Majumder also played for his club. Moni Das was one of the first members to be inducted by Nagendra Prasad to the Wellington Club, but the other members of the club protested about playing with this man as he was from the lower caste. Sarbadhikary said that a sporting ground is beyond any prejudice, but after the members' continued protest, he chose to dismantle the Wellington Club. Soon after, 500 members left and Nagendra Prasad founded the Sovabazar Club in 1887, which would become one of the leading sports institutions of colonial India. The club was later patronized by both the Shobhabazar Raj and Cooch Behar State, and participated in tournaments like Trades Cup. The first member of this new club was Moni Das. Das later captained the Mohun Bagan AC, yet another legendary institution of sports in India, in colonial and post-colonial era. Sarbadhikari's close friend Kalicharan Mittir (also 'Mitra') later captained as well as became an official of Sovabazar Club. Thus a man from the lower caste, through footballing process and sport broke into the upper echelons of the Hindu society. He also founded the Howrah Sporting Club in Howrah in association with Bama Charan Kundu.

In 1892, his team Sovabazar emerged as the first Indian side to win a match against a British team, when they defeated the East Surrey Regiment with the score of 2–1 in the opening match of 1892 Trades Cup. The club thus became the first Indian team to win a match in Trades Cup. They again (then managed by Manmatha Ganguly) defeated a British side Shibpur Engineering College on 11 August 1900 at their home ground. His proposals to both the British representatives and club officials of Calcutta for arranging tournaments in organized manner, was one of the driving forces behind the foundation of Indian Football Association (IFA) in 1892. His Sovabazar Club later won Asanullah Cup in Decca in 1916, beating star-studded Mohun Bagan in final.

Sarbadhikari's contributions to the game during the age of associations in Bengal in late 19th century, influenced others like Dukhiram Majumder, Haridas Seal, Manmatha Ganguly involving in football and popularizing it among the masses.

In popular culture
Based on Sarbadhikari's life, a Bengali film titled Golondaaj, directed by Dhrubo Banerjee and produced by Shree Venkatesh Films, was released on October 10, 2021, in which Dev played the lead role.

title: Sir Robert Davers, 2nd Baronet

text:
Sir Robert Davers, 2nd Baronet (c. 1653 – 1 October 1722), of Rougham and Rushbrooke Hall, was an English Tory politician, landowner and slavetrader.

Early life in Barbados
Davers was the only surviving son of Sir Robert Davers, 1st Baronet and Eleanor Luke. His father was a Royalist who had made his fortune exploiting enslaved Africans on his plantation in Barbados. He owned 300 acres worked by 200 "negroes". Davers was born in Barbados before coming to England between 1680 and 1682. He then returned to Barbados and took his seat in the Council there on 13 June 1682. On 30 November 1683 he was one of the Barons of the Court of Exchequer and of Pleas of Barbados. He inherited his father's baronetcy in 1684 and was chosen to serve as High Sheriff of Suffolk for 1685, but did not take up the role. Despite later moving to England, he would continue to be involved in – and a proponent of – the Atlantic slave trade into Barbados for the rest of his life.

Political career
He moved back permanently to England in 1687. In 1688, his wife's uncle, Lord Dover selected Davers as the court candidate for Bury St Edmunds. Davers, however, rejected the offer to stand for election at this stage and it soon became apparent to the supporters of James II of England that he would oppose repeal of the Test Acts if elected.

In 1689, Davers defeated John Hervey to be elected as the Member of Parliament for Bury St Edmunds on the Tory interest. In the following Convention Parliament, Davers voted with the Jacobite efforts to declare that throne was not vacant following the flight of James II to France. At parliament he was appointed to 35 committees. His only recorded speech was in opposition to increasing supplies for the English effort in the Nine Years' War. After 1690, he became a friend and political ally of Robert Harley and subsequently usually voted with the Tories. Between 1691 and 1714 he was a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber to William III and Anne, Queen of Great Britain. Despite being a signatory of the Association of 1696, he was a member of the Tory October Club.

In 1700 he was appointed a justice of the peace for Suffolk. He represented Bury for a second term from 1703 to 1705, after which he was elected MP for Suffolk, holding that seat until his death in 1722. In 1721, his name was included on a list of leading politicians and likely Jacobite sympathisers sent to James Francis Edward Stuart.

Personal life

Davers married Hon. Mary Jermyn, daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Jermyn, 2nd Baron Jermyn, on 2 February 1682. They had five sons and five daughters. By this marriage he acquired in 1703 one-fifth of the Rushbrooke Hall estate, of which he purchased the other parts from his sister-in-law, Hon. Merolina Jermyn, the wife of Sir Thomas Spring, 3rd Baronet. He sold the estate of Rougham between 1705 and 1710 to his son in law, Clement Corrance and made Rushbrooke the family's principle seat. Lady Davers died ten days after her husband in 1722. Davers was succeeded as baronet by his son, Robert.

title: Audio coding format

text:
An audio coding format (or sometimes audio compression format) is a content representation format for storage or transmission of digital audio (such as in digital television, digital radio and in audio and video files). Examples of audio coding formats include MP3, AAC, Vorbis, FLAC, and Opus. A specific software or hardware implementation capable of audio compression and decompression to/from a specific audio coding format is called an audio codec; an example of an audio codec is LAME, which is one of several different codecs which implements encoding and decoding audio in the MP3 audio coding format in software.

Some audio coding formats are documented by a detailed technical specification document known as an audio coding specification. Some such specifications are written and approved by standardization organizations as technical standards, and are thus known as an audio coding standard. The term "standard" is also sometimes used for de facto standards as well as formal standards.

Audio content encoded in a particular audio coding format is normally encapsulated within a container format. As such, the user normally doesn't have a raw AAC file, but instead has a .m4a audio file, which is a MPEG-4 Part 14 container containing AAC-encoded audio. The container also contains metadata such as title and other tags, and perhaps an index for fast seeking. A notable exception is MP3 files, which are raw audio coding without a container format. De facto standards for adding metadata tags such as title and artist to MP3s, such as ID3, are hacks which work by appending the tags to the MP3, and then relying on the MP3 player to recognize the chunk as malformed audio coding and therefore skip it. In video files with audio, the encoded audio content is bundled with video (in a video coding format) inside a multimedia container format.

An audio coding format does not dictate all algorithms used by a codec implementing the format. An important part of how lossy audio compression works is by removing data in ways humans can't hear, according to a psychoacoustic model; the implementer of an encoder has some freedom of choice in which data to remove (according to their psychoacoustic model).

Lossless, lossy, and uncompressed audio coding formats
A lossless audio coding format reduces the total data needed to represent a sound but can be de-coded to its original, uncompressed form. A lossy audio coding format additionally reduces the bit resolution of the sound on top of compression, which results in far less data at the cost of irretrievably lost information.

Consumer audio is most often compressed using lossy audio codecs as the smaller size is far more convenient for distribution. The most widely used audio coding formats are MP3 and Advanced Audio Coding (AAC), both of which are lossy formats based on modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) and perceptual coding algorithms.

Lossless audio coding formats such as FLAC and Apple Lossless are sometimes available, though at the cost of larger files.

Uncompressed audio formats, such as pulse-code modulation (PCM, or .wav), are also sometimes used. PCM was the standard format for Compact Disc Digital Audio (CDDA), before lossy compression eventually became the standard after the introduction of MP3.

History

In 1950, Bell Labs filed the patent on differential pulse-code modulation (DPCM). Adaptive DPCM (ADPCM) was introduced by P. Cummiskey, Nikil S. Jayant and James L. Flanagan at Bell Labs in 1973.

Perceptual coding was first used for speech coding compression, with linear predictive coding (LPC). Initial concepts for LPC date back to the work of Fumitada Itakura (Nagoya University) and Shuzo Saito (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone) in 1966. During the 1970s, Bishnu S. Atal and Manfred R. Schroeder at Bell Labs developed a form of LPC called adaptive predictive coding (APC), a perceptual coding algorithm that exploited the masking properties of the human ear, followed in the early 1980s with the code-excited linear prediction (CELP) algorithm which achieved a significant compression ratio for its time. Perceptual coding is used by modern audio compression formats such as MP3 and AAC.

Discrete cosine transform (DCT), developed by Nasir Ahmed, T. Natarajan and K. R. Rao in 1974, provided the basis for the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) used by modern audio compression formats such as MP3 and AAC. MDCT was proposed by J. P. Princen, A. W. Johnson and A. B. Bradley in 1987, following earlier work by Princen and Bradley in 1986. The MDCT is used by modern audio compression formats such as Dolby Digital, MP3, and Advanced Audio Coding (AAC).

title: Granja Carolina

text:
Granja Carolina is a rural neighborhood of the municipality of Itapevi and the city of Cotia, in the state of São Paulo.

Granja Carolina is an old farm that belongs to the estate of Celso Santos. With an acreage of 8,896,100.25 m2, it is divided into two tracts: one located in Itapevi with 5,660,320.00 m2, and another in Cotia, with 3,235,780.25 m2. A partnership agreement was established between the owners and Alphaville Urbanismo SA, in which the owners provided the whole property and Alphaville would implement real estate developments in the neighborhood.

A large real estate development (Vila Florestal - Reserva Cotia) was developed by Alphaville to deploy a high standard condominium in the neighborhood.

Vila Florestal - Reserva Cotia
"Vila Florestal - Reserva Cotia" is a large real estate project of the responsibility of AlphaVille, the company that implemented the condominium complex in the upscale city of Barueri. The project will have two residential settlements with total area of de 4,790,555 m2. It is estimated that the project will bring 8,890 people to the region. Also included in the project are commercial areas, green areas, institutional areas as required by the legislation, and the preservation of more than 3.2 million square meters of green areas. The project received its license early 2016. The project, which is also known as "Alphaville Cotia" and "Granja Carolina Condo", will benefit from São Lourenço Production System, a development of public water supply in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo. Part of this project is the installation in the condominium of a water reservoir, with a total volume of 30,000 m3.

Access
The neighborhood is bounded by the districts Vila Belmira and Roselândia, condo Vila Verde and the Raposo Tavares highway.

The neighborhood is accessible via the road "Estrada do Pau Furado".

title: Asparagus Island

text:
Asparagus Island () is a small tidal island on the eastern side of Mount's Bay, within the parish of Mullion, Cornwall, United Kingdom. It lies within Kynance Cove, a popular tourist site on the western side of The Lizard peninsula and is named after the rare wild asparagus (Asparagus prostratus) found there.

Geography and geology
Much of the Lizard peninsula is known for its botany and geology, and about 375 million years ago the molten rock, which eventually became the Lizard, is about 10 km (6 mi) below the surface of the earth and under immense heat and pressure. One of the rocks (peridotite), was rich in magnesium and iron, and changed through the heat and pressure to serpentinite as it pushed upwards from the Moho; the boundary of the Earth's crust and mantle. It finally reached the crust's surface, about 30° south of the equator as part of an ocean ridge, in the Rheic Ocean. Over the next 80 million years the Rheic Ocean disappears and the mass of rock heads north crossing the equator about 250 million years ago. The Tropic of Cancer is reached less than 100 million years ago and the rock, which becomes the Lizard, finally reaches 50° north at about the start of the last Ice Age. The Asparagus Island rocks are tremolite serpentine, a fine-grained and banded serpentine which is different from the primary serpentine on the Lizard (bastite serpentine) because it was subject to higher pressure within the crust.

The islands are here because the serpentine has been broken into blocks and invaded by other types of rock; including granite and basalt, which have been eroded by the sea. The tidal island is uninhabited and is flanked by two large rocks – Gull Rock and The Bishop. Before the winter storms of 2013/14 it was thought the island, which is cut off on almost every high tide, was connected to the mainland by a sand tombolo. The winter storms washed the sand away to reveal a rocky ridge, probably formed more than 100,000 years ago when sea levels were higher. At about half-tide, a snorting can be heard – the sound of the Devil's bellows – a blowhole on Asparagus Island, which was caused by the sea tunnelling along a fault. A second blowhole, the Post Office, is so named because there is enough suction to post a letter in it.

Access is via the South-west coastal footpath from a nearby National Trust car park.

Wildlife and ecology
Asparagus Island is within the Lizard National Nature Reserve, only the best habitats and geological formations are designated as NNRs. The red data book species wild asparagus grows on the island and has been known there since the 1830s. In 1847 Gibson writes that it is in some danger of being eradicated because the (tourist) guides gather it so frequently.

History
A number of microliths and other Mesolithic flints have been found and despite being reported as a flint working site, there is no evidence for this.

A Danish brig the Ospra hit Asparagus Island in the early hours of Sunday, 6 May 1832. She was carrying sugar and coffee (worth £10,000), on a voyage from Havana to Hamburg. The crew, with the exception of one man who drowned, climbed onto the island and walked ashore at dawn. Both the vessel and cargo were a total loss. The wreck became known in local legend, as the ″coffee wreck″.

title: Inayat Zakiatuddin Syah

text:
Sultan Inayat Zakiatudin Syah (c. 1645 - 3 October 1688) was the sixteenth monarch of the Acèh Darussalam and the third sulṭāna regnant to rule in succession. Her reign lasted from 1678 to 1688 and was generally peaceful.

Background and enthronement

Her original name was Puteri Raja Setia. There are conflicting versions about her family background, which is not revealed by contemporary archival sources. According to the relatively reliable chronicle Bustanus Salatin she was the daughter of an otherwise unknown Sultan Muhamed Syah. Three minor chronicles assert that she was the daughter of her predecessor Nurul Alam Naqiatuddin Syah. A third source, a manuscript from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, says that she was sired by Malik Radliat Syah, son of Sultan Firman Ali Ri'ayat Syah, son of Sultan Alauddin Ri'ayat Syah Sayyid al-Mukammal. The English sea captain William Dampier visited Aceh during her reign and wrote: "the queen of Achin as it is said, is always an old maid chosen out of the Royal family". When the old queen Nurul Alam died in January 1678, Puteri Raja Setia was enthroned under the name Sultanah Inayat Zakiatuddin Syah without any known commotion. According to an English travel account from 1684 she was around 40 years old, large with a powerful voice. The visitors even speculated that she was no real woman but actually a eunuch in disguise.

Communication with visitors

Like the first sultana, Taj ul-Alam, Inayat had cultural interests and supported the well-known Islamic scholar Abdul Ra'uf of Singkel. At least one of his works, a commentary on Nawawi's hadiths, was commissioned by the queen. In 1683 she was visited by an embassy from the sharif of Mecca which reached Aceh after failing to contact the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb. English envoys from Madras arrived in 1684 and asked for permission to establish a trading post. They had bought Acehnese pepper since long and searched for new posts on Banten after Java had been closed to them in 1682 by Amangkurat II of Mataram. At this time the council of the queen consisted of twelve orang kayas (lit. rich men) who received the Europeans friendly. The Englishmen pointed out that a fortified post would deter the Dutch East India Company from enforcing a blockade on the Acehnese coast. Still the proposal was not approved by the court. The English observed that Aceh had become a popular port for Indian traders, Madras residents and adventurers in the past decade.

Sultana Inayat died on 3 October 1688. Her death was followed by a brief spate of infighting among the orang kayas before a fourth (and last) sultana was enthroned. This was Sultana Kamalat Syah.

title: RS Telescopii

text:
RS Telescopii, abbreviated RS Tel, is a variable star in the southern constellation of Telescopium. It is a dim star with an apparent visual magnitude of 10.67, which is much too faint to be visible without a telescope. The variability of this star was discovered by Evelyn F. Leland and announced by Edward C. Pickering in 1910. It was first studied by Cecilia H. Payne in 1928 at the Harvard College Observatory.

This is an R-type carbon star with a class of R0.  RS Tel is a typical R Coronae Borealis variable—an extremely hydrogen-deficient supergiant thought to have arisen as the result of the merger of two white dwarfs; fewer than 100 have been discovered as of 2012. It has under 55% the mass of the Sun and an effective temperature of around 5,800 K. The spectrum of the star shows anomalously weak lines of hydrogen, with strong lines of C2, CN, and neutral carbon.

RS Tel has a maximum magnitude of 9.6 and a minimum magnitude 16.5. The star undergoes large, random variations in brightness on a time scale of thousands of days with no apparent periodicity.  The star is surrounded by a circumstellar shell of dust which radiating an infrared excess.

title: Newman v. Piggie Park Enterprises, Inc.

text:
Newman v. Piggie Park Enterprises, Inc., 390 U.S. 400 (1968), is a 1968 United States Supreme Court case in which the court held per curiam that after a successful effort to obtain an injunction under Title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, attorney's fees under Section 204(b) are generally recoverable.

Background

Piggie Park Enterprises was, in 1964, a drive-in BBQ chain with four restaurants, created and operated by Maurice Bessinger, the Baptist head of the National Association for the Preservation of White People. He did not allow African-Americans to eat in his restaurants. After Bessinger's refusal to allow Anne Newman, an African-American minister's wife into his restaurant, a lawyer, Matthew J. Perry, filed a class action lawsuit against the chain.

Procedural history
Perry's lawsuit was first heard in the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina with Charles Earl Simons, Jr. presiding.

The plaintiffs argued that Piggie Park's exclusion of African-Americans constituted a violation of Title II. The defendant, Bessinger, denied the discrimination, denied that the restaurants were public accommodations in the meaning of the Act (as it did not involve interstate commerce), and argued that the Civil Rights Act violated his freedom of religion as "his religious beliefs compel him to oppose any integration of the races whatever." Simons held the Act did not apply to drive-in restaurants but applied to Bessinger's sandwich shop. On appeal, the Fourth Circuit reversed the lower court decision, finding that discrimination was prohibited at both drive-in and eat-in establishments, The Fourth Circuit remanded the case back to the district court, instructing that court to "award counsel fees only to the extent that the respondents' defenses had been advanced for purposes of delay, and not in good faith." The Supreme Court granted certiorari to the question of whether the exclusion for good-faith defense was correct.

Decision
The Court held 8-0 (Marshall not participating) that full attorney's fees should generally be recoverable, based on the intent and practical effect of the law. The Court wrote:

 When a plaintiff brings an action under that Title, he cannot recover damages. If he obtains an injunction, he does so not for himself alone, but also as a "private attorney general," vindicating a policy that Congress considered of the highest priority. If successful plaintiffs were routinely forced to bear their own attorneys' fees, few aggrieved parties would be in a position to advance the public interest by invoking the injunctive powers of the federal courts. Congress therefore enacted the provision for counsel fees -- not simply to penalize litigants who deliberately advance arguments they know to be untenable but, more broadly, to encourage individuals injured by racial discrimination to seek judicial relief under Title II.
 It follows that one who succeeds in obtaining an injunction under that Title should ordinarily recover an attorney's fee unless special circumstances would render such an award unjust.

Subsequent developments
This language has been said to form of a "cornerstone" for the text of the 1967 Attorney's Fees Act. Newman is seen as an early step in toward the Civil Rights Attorney's Fees Award Act of 1976 and more generally the American rule.

title: Voz de Mando

text:
Voz de Mando is a regional Mexican band based in Los Angeles, California, United States. They specialize in the norteño-banda genre.

Their hit single "Levantando Polvadera" won song of the year in the Regional Music category at the 2016 iHeart Radio awards, the first-ever regional Mexican band to win an iHeart radio award.

In 2011, Voz de Mando appeared in the drama film A Better Life. Their hit "Commands M. P. ( 500 Balazos )" was also in the film's soundtrack. In 2016, the band participated in the television series Route 35 starring Danna Garcia and Julio Bracho Castillo. Their single "Compadre No Rajes" was the show's theme song.

Music career

Origin
From Los Angeles, California, the band members also have roots in the Mexican states of Michoacan and Baja California. The band was founded in 2009.

Early
The band started in 2007 with their first release, "Escoge Tu Camino". The band made a name for itself with the self-released albums Levantando la Voz (2009) and 12 Impactos de Alto Calibre (2009). The early success led to a contract with Universal's Latin music imprint, Disa Records. In 2010, they released their first major-label album with Con la Nueva Federacion. One of several songs on the album written by Gaxiola brother Miguel, the corrido "Comandos del M.P. (500 Balazos)" was a breakout hit single for the group, reaching the top ten in the Billboard Regional Mexican Songs chart.

In 2011, Voz de Mando appeared in the Oscar nominated film A Better Life, starring Demian Bichir. Their hit "Commands M. P. ( 500 Balazos )" appeared on the film's soundtrack. Subsequent singles "Y Ahora Resulta" (2012) and "Muchacho de Campo" (2013) were crossover hits winning numerous awards, critical and fan recognition.

Contemporary (2014 to present)
In 2014, the group left Universal Music Group and formed a partnership with Sony Music. Founding band member Jorge Gaxiola formed his independent record label AfinArte Music and, along with Sony, released the band's hit single "Batalla del Golfo". The single formed the basis for Voz de Mando's sixth studio album, Levantado Polvadera. The album's hit single "Levantando Polvadera" won song of the year in the Regional Music category at the 2016 iHeartRadio Music Awards, the first ever Mexican regional band to win an iHeartRadio award.

In 2015, founding member Miguel Gaxiola launched his own line of handmade guitars, Fortaleza Guitars. Fortalezas quickly became a popular instrument in the Mexican music world used by bands like Kinky and Conjunto Primavera.

In 2016, the band appeared in the television series Ruta 35 starring Danna Garcia and Julio Bracho Castillo. Their single "Compadre No Rajes" was the show's original theme song.

In 2017, Voz de Mando released their seventh studio album featuring two chart-topping singles, including the viral hit "Soldado Latinoamericano", which quickly became a hymn of Latino pride in the US and across the border. "Pa’ que no me anden Contando", a top-ten Billboard hit dominated radio play in the US.

title: Lancaster Moor Hospital

text:
Lancaster Moor Hospital, formerly the Lancaster County Lunatic Asylum and Lancaster County Mental Hospital, was a mental hospital in Lancaster, Lancashire, England, which closed in 2000 (the mental health departments left in 1991, but others remained).

History

The main building, which was designed by Thomas Standen, was opened as the First Lancashire County Asylum in 1816. It was extended at various times until 1850, and is grade II* listed. A further building, which was designed by Arnold W. Kershaw in the gothic style and known as "the Annexe", was completed in 1883 and is grade II listed, as are its walls, railings, and gateways.   The hospital's chapel, which was designed by Edward Graham Paley, was built in 1866 and is grade II listed.

Campbell House, a facility for paying "gentlemen" patients, was completed in 1909. And the Ladies' Villa, Also Known as Ridge Lea, a facility for paying "lady" patients, was completed in 1916. The Ladies Villa was big enough to be classed as its very own small Mental Asylum.

The hospital was a pioneering site for the humane treatment of the mentally ill with the introduction of treatments such as electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). The writer Alan Bennett describes his mother's treatment in the hospital in his memoirs.

Following the introduction of Care in the Community in the early 1980s, the hospital went into a period of decline and closed in 2000; the Annexe and chapel have since been converted into apartments, and houses have been built in the grounds.

The hospital was renamed as Lancashire County Mental Hospital in 1930, and as Lancaster Moor Hospital in 1948.
