	George Orwell - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Orwell was shot in the neck (near Huesca) on May 20, 1937, an experience he described in his short essay "Wounded by a Fascist Sniper", as well as in Homage to Catalonia.
		Orwell had returned from Catalonia a staunch anti-Stalinist and anti-Communist, but he remained to the end a man of the left and, in his own words, a 'democratic socialist'.
		Orwell's concern over the power of language to shape reality is also reflected in his invention of Newspeak, the official language of the imaginary country of Oceania in his novel Nineteen Eighty-Four.

	George Orwell
		Orwell's motives for this are unclear, though it does not necessarily follow that he had abandoned socialism - merely that he detested Stalinism, as he had already made very clear in his earlier published works.
		Orwell's concern over the declining power of language to capture and express reality with honesty is also reflected in his invention of "Newspeak", the language of the imaginary country of Oceania in his novel Nineteen Eighty-Four.
		Orwell's literary and political career was dominated by the tension between his desire for greater equality and social justice, and his ambivalent attitude towards his own middle-class background.

		Orwell died in London at the age of 46 from tuberculosis which he had probably contracted during the period described in Down and Out in Paris and London.
		Orwell had returned from Catalonia a staunch anti-Stalinist and anti-Communist, but he remained to the end a man of the left and, in his own words, a " democratic socialist".
		Orwell's descent into the lives of the poor in "The Road to Wigan Pier" strongly resembles that of Jack London's "The People of the Abyss", in which London disguises himself as a poverty stricken American sailor in order to investigate the lives of the poor in London.

	George Orwell - Open Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Perhaps surprisingly for a writer with progressive, socialist views, he chose a pen name that stressed his deep, lifelong affection for the English tradition and countryside: George is the patron saint of England (and George V was monarch at the time), while the River Orwell in Suffolk was one of his most beloved English sites.
		Orwell's motives for this are unclear, though it does not necessarily follow that he had abandoned the democratic socialism that he consistently promoted - merely that he detested Stalinism, as he had already made very clear in his earlier published works.
		The former is an allegory of the corruption of the socialist ideals of the Russian Revolution by Stalinism, and the latter is Orwell's prophetic vision of the results of totalitarianism.

	Ipswich Borough Council v Moore
		It is common ground that the river Orwell at Pin Mill - which is where the moorings in question are laid - is within the port of Ipswich as defined by the Act of 1950.
		The Ipswich Borough Council derives its title to the bed and foreshore of the river Orwell from a charter granted by Henry VIII in 1518.
		The effect of that agreement, in the present context, is that the tidal portion of the river Orwell to the bed and foreshore of which the Borough can claim ownership under the charter is co-extensive with the port of Ipswich as defined in the 1950 Act.

	Orwell Pen Name
		What a perfect location it would be for a GEORGE ORWELL MUSEUM, full of first editions of all his books and his typewriter and his handwritten manuscript of "1984", etc etc and also a place to buy his books and those of other writers to whom he would wish to share shelf space.
		Orwell says "Wallace thought nothing of composing a full-length book in less than a week" and that "his whole aim of writing was to make money" and he succeeded, earning about 50,000 pounds a year which in those days was a fortune, and which he splurged on mansions and racing-horses.
		Orwell's indignation at Blake's treatment, ie there being no monument to him, matches exactly the way I feel about the fact that there is no museum or statue of Orwell anywhere in England (aside from the blue plagues on some of the houses he lived in).

		It was established that the major objective of the Panel is to focus on improving the river and its environment throughout the town from Sproughton in the west to Orwell Country Park in the southeast.
		Project Orwell provides the opportunity for Ipswich people to completely reassess the potential of their River as it runs through the town and to participate in its enhancement.
		The course of the river acts as a green link, which visually softens the appearance of the urban area, although some sections are less well defined and attractive.

		The River Orwell itself extends for some 16 km from Harwich up to Ipswich and winds its way through a beautiful, gently rolling landscape of fields and woodland.
		Branching off from the Orwell at Harwich is the River Stour, one of the most unspoilt rivers on the East Coast, the upper reaches of which can only be accessed at high water.
		To the north the next river estuary is the River Deben, which can present a challenging entrance but them becomes a lovely winding river with varying views and historical sites ending in the beautiful town of Woodbridge and its famous tide mill.

	Tour through the Eastern Counties of England by Daniel Defoe: Suffolk
		Ipswich is seated, at the distance of twelve miles from Harwich, upon the edge of the river, which, taking a short turn to the west, the town forms, there, a kind of semicircle, or half moon, upon the bank of the river.
		Orford was once a good town, but is decayed, and as it stands on the land side of the river the sea daily throws up more land to it, and falls off itself from it, as if it was resolved to disown the place, and that it should be a seaport no longer.
		This "lousie creek," in short, is a little river at Swoul, which our late famous atlas-maker calls a good harbour for ships, and rendezvous of the royal navy; but that by-the-bye; the author, it seems, knew no better.

	Welcome to the web site of Orwell River Cruises
		Orwell River Cruises Limited was specifically formed in 2001 to bring back the pleasure of river cruising to the River Orwell after an absence of such facilities for several decades.
		Using its purpose built vessel, ~Orwell Lady~, the company now runs regular, scheduled cruises for up to 118 passengers per trip, leaving from Orwell Quay in Ipswich Wet Dock, along the river Orwell and into Harwich Harbour.
		It had long been an ambition to provide a traditional professionally run river cruise service locally so that more people could experience the wonders of the River Orwell and Stour estuary, including the very impressive Port of Felixstowe, as the River Orwell is one of the most beautiful and historic rivers in the country.

		It is a composite in both time and subject and is thought to show the 'Hampshire', 50 guns, on the stocks, the 'Biddeford', 20 guns, being towed downstream and, in the left foreground, the 'Grenado', a bomb-vessel.
		The location is the River Orwell and the artist was positioned in the immediate vicinity of the Frensham Tower several miles downstream of Ipswich, immediately identifiable in the middle distance.
		The land on which the ship sits ready for launch is John's Ness, where the 'Hampshire' was the only 50-gun ship was built and was launched there in 1741.

		The name Orwell is believed to have meant 'river near the shore', a name which derived from the Anglo Saxons.
		More recently the construction of the mighty Orwell Bridge in the early 80s was a marking point for the expansion of the Felixstowe docks.

	Ipswich Borough Council v Moore
		At issue in each case is whether IBC is entitled, as owner of the riverbed and foreshore of the river Orwell, to grant or withhold its permission, and if granted to charge, for the right to lay and use deepwater moorings, for which the consent of the relevant port authority has been obtained.
		Of course, the river being tidal as far as Ipswich, the river bed and foreshore would undoubtedly have belonged to the Crown, unless and until it was the subject of a Crown grant.
		On the evidence I am satisfied that IBC does have the freehold title to the soil of the river bed and foreshore, derived originally from the Charter, and that there is no arguable defence on the basis of a denial of that title.

		William Berners (1709-83) was the first of his family to own the Woolverstone estate on the south bank of the Orwell and it was in the family's ownership until the 1930s when it was sold to Lord Nuffield who bought it as an investment for Oxford University.
		That was an age away from the time when the banks of the River Orwell from Ipswich, a thriving port 11 miles upriver from the estuary, was in the middle of prime smuggling country: in 1729, 186,000 gallons of brandy were smuggled in along the East Anglian coast.

	Yachting and Boating World: River orwell mooring?

		I have had some quotes for Pontoon berths from Neptune marina and Woolverstone marina and once I’d recovered (actually the Neptune quote wasn’t bad 1466.40 for the year inc vat) I thought I’d try and find out the costs would be for a swinging mooring —in their many variations.
		If a drying mooring is acceptable, I've been told that the Orwell Yacht Club are the people to talk to (about joining, as they are Club moorings).
