History
The school first opened in 1957 as Monks Park Secondary School. The name of the school as much of the nearby area belonged to the Monk Family. The school began teaching with just 24 students and 12 members of staff.
The original buildings of the school faced Filton Road. As the intake of students increased, plans were made to extend and the Northwick End was built. The new building was opened by the then Lord Mayor of London Sir Bernard Waley-Cohen in 1961. As the school continued to grow, it took over the buildings of the Upper Horfield Girls School.
The 1990s saw the pupil numbers in nearby schools drop. Pen Park School closed in 2000 with Lockleaze School closing in 2004. The students were therefore sent to Monks Park School for their secondary education.
As part of an £80m plan to restore confidence in Bristol schooling, Monks Park was one of four schools in the city to be rebuilt. The new building was opened in 2006.
In 2007, the school celebrated its Golden Jubilee.
In 2009, the then headteacher Dr Helen Holman made the decision to rename the school to Orchard School Bristol. The rebranding was to represent a fresh start owing to a bad reputation the school had.
In 2012, the school became an academy.

French frigate Muiron
|
Muiron was a frigate of the French Navy, famous for ferrying Bonaparte on the 22 August 1799 under the flagship of Admiral Ganteaume from Egypt to France after the Battle of Abukir.
The Muiron was one of two 18-pounder armed frigates that were building on the stocks in the Arsenal of Venice in November 1796, when Bonaparte took Venice during the Campaign of Italy. The two frigates were launched in August 1797 under the names Carrère and Muiron, and completed during November by the orders of Pierre-Alexandre Forfait. Muiron was named to honour Colonel Jean-Baptiste Muiron, an aide-de-camp of Bonaparte who had covered Bonaparte with his body during the Battle of the Bridge of Arcole.
The Muiron was armed with 28 × 18-pounder guns on the upper deck, and 12 × 6-pounder guns on the quarterdeck and forecastle, and manned with a complement of 340. She was incorporated in the fleet that invaded Egypt, and after the Battle of the Nile, Bonaparte departed for France aboard. She later took part in the Battle of Algeciras Bay. In 1807, Napoleon ordered that the Muiron be preserved as a monument; to this effect, he wrote a letter to the Ministry of the Navy, stating "I wish that the Muiron on which I came back from Egypt be kept as a monument and placed in such a way that it be preserved, if possibly, several hundreds years"."Je désire que la Muiron sur laquelle je suis revenu d'Égypte, soit gardée comme un monument et placée de manière à ce qu'elle se conserve, s'il est possible, plusieurs centaines d'années..." She was repaired and docked in Toulon, which a golden inscription on her hull stating "The Muiron, taken in 1797 in Venice arsenal by the conqueror of Italy. She brought back the saviour of France from Egypt in 1799"."La Muiron, prise en 1797 dans l'Arsenal de Venise par le conquérant de l'Italie. Elle ramena d'Égypte en 1799 le sauveur de la France" Napoléon also had a finely crafted scale model made for his study in Malmaison in 1803. This model is now on display at the Musée national de la Marine in Paris.
At the Bourbon Restoration, Muiron was decommissioned, and she was eventually destroyed in 1850, in circumstances that remain unclear. Conflicting theories have it that she was either sold for material and broken up, or destroyed by fire after being struck by lightning.
The British captured her sister ship in August 1801 and added her to the British Navy as .

Herbert of Bosham
|
Use dmy dates
|
Herbert of Bosham was a twelfth-century English biographer of Thomas Becket who held a foremost place among the scholars in Thomas's household. His date of birth is unknown, but he was a member of Henry II's itinerant chapel by 1157 and likely died at Ourscamp around 1194.
|
Herbert of Bosham
|
Early life
|
Early life
He was probably born in Bosham, Sussex, from which he took his name.
He studied theology in Paris as a pupil of Peter Lombard.Frank Barlow, Thomas Becket (1986), p. 7. He introduced Lombard's Sentences into England.Roger Bradshaigh Lloyd, The Golden Middle Age (1939), p. 127.

Companion to Becket
|
Companion to Becket
He must have joined Becket's household before 1162 as, on his elevation in that year, the new archbishop immediately promoted him to a responsible position. He was to give his master advice on the performance of his duties, and to assist and even direct his studies of Scripture.
Herbert remained closely attached to Becket through the arduous and troubled years of his episcopacy and exile, up until almost the very eve of the final scene in Canterbury Cathedral. After returning to England with Becket in December 1170, he remained with him until he was sent back again on an errand to the French king. He vainly implored his master to let him stay for the end which both felt to be close at hand. And, in fact it came two days after Herbert's departure. Of all the archbishop's followers, he was the fiercest opponent of the King Henry II of England and the royal "customs". He was unafraid to confront the king to his face or to take on dangerous missions to England.

Herbert of Bosham

Biographer
|
Biographer
After Becket's death, Herbert seems to have lived mainly on the Continent, not revisiting England until about 1184, and he complains that he was neglected; he records, however, a friendly interview with the king himself. We know nothing of him after the year 1189.
Herbert of Bosham's verbose biography of Becket has less historical value of than that of William Fitzstephen. He shared Thomas's ideals and was an eyewitness of most of the incidents of his episcopacy. He had sat by him, for instance, during the stormy scenes of the trial at Northampton. On the other hand, he did not begin to write till 1184, many years after the events which he records, and Dom Albert L'Huillier gave reasons to doubt the accuracy of Herbert's reminiscences.
Besides the Life of St. Thomas, he wrote a lengthy Liber Melorum in praise of him. An edition of the Life is contained in vol. III of the Materials for the History of Thomas Becket (Rolls Series) edited by James Craigie Robertson; the volume also contains some extracts from the Liber Melorum.

Biblical Studies
During the summer of 1190 Herbert had retired from court and commenced biblical study on the Psalms at the Cistercian Abbey of Ourscamp.Loewe, Raphael. “The Mediaeval Christian Hebraists of England: HERBERT OF BOSHAM AND EARLIER SCHOLARS.” Transactions (Jewish Historical Society of England), vol. 17, 1951, pp. 225–49.

Mercian Brigade

The
|
The Mercian Brigade was an administrative formation of the British Army from 1948 to 1964. The Brigade administered the infantry regiments from the area of England between the Trent, Mersey and Severn rivers that roughly corresponded to the ancient kingdom of Mercia.
After the Second World War, the British Army had fourteen infantry depots, each bearing a letter. The depots were territorially organised, with Infantry Depot K at Whittington Barracks near Lichfield was the headquarters for the county regiments of Cheshire, Staffordshire, and Worcestershire.
In 1948, the depots adopted names and this depot became the Mercian Brigade, with all regiments being reduced to a single battalion at the same time. The Mercian Brigade was formed on 14 July 1948, combining the depots of the following regiments:Whitaker's Almanack 1956, p. 471
The Cheshire Regiment
The Worcestershire Regiment
The South Staffordshire Regiment
The North Staffordshire Regiment (The Prince of Wales's)
Under the Defence Review announced in July, 1957, the infantry of the line was reorganised: accordingly, in 1959, the South Staffordshire Regiment and North Staffordshire Regiment were amalgamated to form the Staffordshire Regiment (The Prince of Wales's).
As part of the reforms, all regiments in the brigade adopted a common cap badge in 1958. This consisted of a gold Saxon crown over a silver double-headed eagle, being the attributed device of Leofric, Earl of Mercia.A L King and H L Kipling, Head-dress badges of the British Army, Volume 2, London, 1979Mercian History, (Mercian Volunteers Regimental Association) accessed August 15, 2007 The battalions were distinguished by regimental collar badges and coloured lanyards: cerise for the Cheshires, green for the Worcestershires and black for the Staffords.
On 1 May 1963, the brigade was again increased to four regular battalions, when the Sherwood Foresters (Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Regiment) were transferred from the dissolved Forester Brigade. The regiment wore a Lincoln green lanyard.
On 1 July 1968, the Mercian Brigade was united with the Wessex Brigade and Welsh Brigade, to form the Prince of Wales' Division.Whitaker's Almanack 1969, p. 473
