Wind Energy â Another Gift from the Sun? Wind energy comes from the sun. It is true â wind energy is simply a converted form of solar energy! The sunâs radiation warms different parts of the earth, oceans, and other bodies of water, at different rates. The night and day cycles make an obvious difference, but also, water and land absorb or reflect sunlight differently.
Ironstone china, ironstone ware or most commonly just ironstone, is a type of vitreous pottery first made in the United Kingdom in the early 19th century.
Ironstone has been worked in our county from very early times but it was The Great Exhibition held in Hyde Park, London in 1851 where samples of iron ore from the estate of Colonel (later General) Charles Arbuthnot, Woodford House, were exhibited, which gave rise to the mass exploitation of Northamptonshire ironstone.
