Fanning the flames
Article Abstract:
Provisional fire statistics released by the ODPM, covering the year up to September 2004, indicate that out of the primary fire totals, there were 99,500 building fires, representing the lowest number of primary fires in 20 years in the UK. The fact that the fire statistics are coming down may be cited as an example of how successful the first year of operations of new schemes has been, but there is a need to analyze the long-term statistical reality.

Three coins in a fountain
Article Abstract:
The two new water features are set within the central courtyard to provide a constant depth flow of water, with each pond separated by a walk-way. The result is a constant 4mm flow depth along the entire length of each outlet, which produces the look of a permanently wetted surface - just enough to give the appearance of a pool, while also enhancing the quality of the slate lining.
