 Bulkington Village Centre - history   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The idea of Bulkington Village Centre was born in 1995 when a large primary school, originally opened in 1939, was announced as due for closure by the Warwickshire County Council.
The head of the school had always encouraged use by the wider community so when a public meeting was arranged by local councillors to consider the future of the buildings it was well attended.
The Bulkington Village Centre, controlled and managed by the local community, was officially opened in April 2000.

 Dan Simmons - Author's Official Web Site   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Bulkington is a member of the crew of the Pequod whom Ishmael meets early, during the inn scenes on land, who is obviously destined for a starrring role in the book.
A sailor “with a chest like a coffer-dam” whom Melville introduces with important dialogue, much fanfare and a flurry of heroic descriptors, there’s no doubt that Bulkington is the heroic figure being set up to be the courageous foil and opponent to the obsessive and self-destructive Ahab.
Whatever the reasons for Melville’s abandoning the Bulkington character and assigning his literary duties to the lesser (far less impressive and courageous) Starbuck, the only decent thing to do – for the sake of all those readers with their closure-meters ticking – is to get rid of him.

On 12 January 2004 one of the very few uplifting victories for Travellers facing eviction occurred at Bulkington Fields, when over 100 Travellers living at the site dug ditches, built barricades, and resisted together a shameful eviction of the families from land they owned.
In the early morning hours of Wedenesday, 30 June an estimated 100 bailiffs and police in riot gear – without any prior warning – stormed the site and forcefully evicted the families from their homes and land, arresting 4 people.
The successful battle against bailiffs (Constant and Co) and the council gave the Travellers time to get an injunction until their case was decided at High Court, bringing up issues of caused homelessness under the Human Rights Act.
