Information about words in this company name or address

beechwood

1. beech, beechwood, wood
usage: wood of any of various beech trees; used for flooring and containers and plywood and tool handles
Beech wood is an excellent firewood, easily split and burning for many hours with bright but calm flames. Chips of beech wood are used in the brewing of Budweiser beer as a fining agent. Beechwood logs are burned to dry the malts used in some German smoked beers, giving the beers their typical flavor. Beech is also used to smoke some cheeses.
Some drums are made from beechwood, which has a tone generally considered to be between maple and birch, the two most popular drum woods.
Also, beech pulp is used as the basis for manufacturing a textile fibre known as Modal. The wood is also used to make the pigment known as bistre.
The fruit of the beechwood, also called "Beechnuts" and "mast", are found in the small burrs that drop from tree in autumn. They are small, triangular, and edible, with a bitter, astringent taste.

developments

1. the process of developing; growth; progress:
2. a significant consequence or event: recent developments in science.
3. a developed state or form: Drama reached its highest development in the plays of Shakespeare.
4. Music.the part of a movement or composition in which a theme or themes are developed.
5. a large group of private houses constructed as a unified community, esp. by a developer or government organization
Real estate development is a multifaceted business, encompassing activities that range from the renovation and re-lease of existing buildings to the purchase of raw land and the sale of improved parcels to others. Developers are the coordinators of the activities, converting ideas on paper into real property.

Real estate development is different from construction. Developer Louis Lesser drew the distinction in a 1963 New York Times article, "Developing is the key word. ''We don''t build ourselves'', Mr. Lesser stresses. ''We buy the land, finance the deal, and then we have the best builders build under bond at a fixed cost.''

Developers buy land, finance real estate deals, build or have builders build projects, create, imagine, control and orchestrate the process of development from the beginning to end. Developers usually take the greatest risk in the creation or renovation of real estate—and receive the greatest rewards. Typically, developers purchase a tract of land, determine the marketing of the property, develop the building program and design, obtain the necessary public approval and financing, build the structure, and lease, manage, and ultimately sell it. Developers work with many different counterparts along each step of this process, including architects, city planners, engineers, surveyors, inspectors, contractors, leasing agents and more. In the Town and Country Planning context of the UK, ''development'' is defined in the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 s55.

newton aycliffe

Newton Aycliffe is a town in County Durham, England. Founded in 1947 under the New Towns Act of 1946, it is the oldest new town in the north of England. The government asked William Beveridge to produce a report on what he wanted Britain to be like after the war. In 1942 he produced his report. Five giants, he said, oppressed mankind - Poverty, Disease, Homelessness, Ignorance and Unemployment. To end this, once and for all, Beveridge proposed a state system of Social Security benefits, a National Health Service, council housing, free education and full employment. He called it the Welfare State. The Welfare State was brought in all over Britain in 1948, but Beveridge chose one place especially which he wanted to be the shining example of how his new world would work. The moors between Aycliffe and Middridge were perfect - there was a huge ordinance factory that was no longer needed for the war, and there was plenty of poor farmland to build on.
Prior to the Newtown development, Aycliffe was the site of a Saxon settlement. The name Acley came from the Saxon words: ''Ac'', meaning oak, and ''ley'', meaning ''a clearing''. Aycliffe was the location of a church synods in AD 782 and AD 789. Another old name was ''Yacley''. The town''s motto is Latin for "Not the Least, but the Greatest we seek".

To the south of the town is the village of Aycliffe. Newton comes from ''New Town''. On the edge of the town is the Bishop Auckland to Darlington railway branch line which is part of the 1825 Stockton and Darlington Railway. George Stephenson''s steam locomotive Locomotion No 1 was placed on the rails close to Newton Aycliffe near to where Heighington station is. Within a 10-mile radius are several towns and villages including Darlington, Bishop Auckland, Shildon and Heighington.
There are no "streets" in Newton Aycliffe . The main road which runs through the centre of the town is ''Central Avenue''. There are many Roads, Closes, Crescents and even a Parade. In the older parts of the town the streets are named after Bishops of Durham and Saints: Van Mildert ; St. Aidan''s ; Biscop . Some are named after prominent local families; Shafto , Eden , and Bowes for example. Even named after the movers and shakers of the New Town Movement such as Lord Lewis Silkin and Lord Beveridge . Second phase of building saw the end of roads, ways and crescents, instead whole areas were named after trees; Beech Field; Oak Field; Ash Field and Elm Field. The third part of building took place in three phases, Agnew 1, 2, and 3. These were named after the architect.
