【 Sri Lankan Kanda Paula, Hessett? ]

Ian Gardner's Compilation G.C. Wei Crema Sinha and aitken spence-Joint-stock Company Cooperation "

Aitken Spencer &; AS an institution, AS has been involved in tea/rubber plantations for over 100 years. However, the plantation was nationalized in the early 1970s and came to an abrupt end in the real estate agency business. Fortunately, aitken spence has entered many other fields, such as shipping and insurance, printing, tourism, hotels, cargo handling/logistics and so on.

The economic opening that swept the world in 1980s and 1990s, Sri Lanka also set off a wave of privatization. The Committee is concerned that the plantation was first returned by the State on the basis of a transparent tender for the former agent's house, which was managed. According to this plan, Spencer and aitken won 1992, including a group of plantations in the tea factory, represented by Hersheset Manor. With the experience of planting, G.C. Wickremasinghe, director of the main bureau in spence, aitken, took over these plantations as the administrative director. 1September 29, 992, the first of these attributes, he found the rising sun and the magnificent tea factory at the foot of the mountain. Dean Lin showed him around, explaining that it was an abandoned factory, and the building of Hessett Factory was nailed up with boards, while G.C. Wei Crema Xin insisted on checking it. About 25 years ago, this factory was abandoned by its former owner. This building always ignores the age after it was abandoned, although the building is made of steel structure and galvanized iron sheet, and it is in very good condition. The corrugated board remains unchanged and does not rust, although the building itself is very strong. At this altitude (6,800 feet above sea level) and the cold temperature, thin air may be helpful for the preservation of buildings, which were rebuilt in the early 1930s, but the "marked" tea leaves have a history of more than 100 years. When it returned to the end of19th century, it was auctioned in Mincing, London, and the tea production reached the modern height of Hershecht. For the first time, he visited G.C.Wickremasinghe and dictated to aitken spence to build an abandoned factory into a unique theme hotel and keep it on the facade and external wall of the building. Completely in line with the fact that the British planter stayed to change this geographical position, he decided to make a memorandum. Inspired by his planting background and overseas travel, he visited the treetop hotel in Kenya. In Europe, he saw the transformation from brewery to restaurant and hotel industry. He has already set off, and the first sentence is that the room bar of the regional restaurant, which is completely accepted or open, should be located on the fourth floor of the carved guest room-it was in the building before. One day there, G.C.Wickremasinghe found that the source of fresh spring water was on a barren hill at an altitude of 7000 feet not far from the scene. This source provides water for the hotel, but thanks to the bottling factory, it has established bottled water for commercial production. The bottled water factory is Sivasamy, a former employee of Hethersett Plantation, G.C.Wickremasinghe, and the head of the plantation workers' union who opposed the project during the construction stage.

On the day of his first inspection, GCWickremasinghe dictated a memo to aitken Spencer, turning his decision into an ideal place, abandoned on the facade of a unique theme hotel, and the factory building, which is the appearance of the British plantation building, has left it.

His inspiration comes from his planting background. During this period, he visited the treetop hotel in Kenya and saw farms and wineries traveling in Europe and overseas transformed into restaurants and hotels. He has made it clear that in this memorandum, it is in the field of reception/public affairs, dinnin.

The guest rooms on the fourth floor-the former pigeon house-should be set up in the lounge and bar. On this day, GCWickremasinghe found fresh spring water at an altitude of 7000 feet, not far from the uninhabited mountain source.

His website. The hotel provided by this source is also a water and bottled water factory, and he has set up a commercial bottled water hotel nearby. The bottled water factory is located in Sivasamy, which is a plantation in Hershecht. He supports GCWickremasinghe and is responsible for the old employees managed by the plantation workers' union from the construction stage.

In the planning stage, the Tourism Bureau thought the guest room was too small. Therefore, there are actions to expand the building, which GCWickremasinghe does not allow, because he thinks that the lines of the original building, the perfect appearance, and any interference will be disastrous.

He reduced the number of rooms and suggested building a tunnel, but let more rooms be built outside, if necessary in the future. He doesn't allow any modification or supplement to the appearance. Windows and woodwork are completely original from the outside and designed by British engineers. Tobacco marketing Committee

Alas, most teak used in the past was from Myanmar, and Jala was from Australia. In addition, the entire steel structure of the building is imported from dormann. The floors of the four dovecotes are original pine, which was imported from Sweden in the 1930s.

GCWickremasinghe encouraged the establishment of the first oil launch in the country as a central heating system on the first floor of the hotel. This was designed and implemented by Wijitha Pereira, an engineer of the company. He is in charge of the whole M&E,

Among them, steam boilers and re-spraying fire extinguishing systems have been abandoned for more than a quarter of a century. With GCWickremasinghe's experience in the UK, he was able to provide the government with information about the old and unstable floor tile decoration, and 57 bathrooms on the fourth floor were also waterproof. He also

Personal choice comes from Britain, for electric heaters in guest rooms, underground bars and wood in suites, sofabeds/coal fireplaces in public places. After that, he selected curtains, sheets, billiard tables, chairs and other gardens in the local area.

GCWickremasinghe designed a small tea factory, and he set up the dormitory layout expected by Teamaker. He got a rare micro-machine, which was needed when he was looking for it in a second-hand shop in Gambor. Micro-drying was a gift from the Tea Research Institute.

The factory now produces some small special teas, which are appreciated by the guests visiting the hotel.

In the hotel itself, GCWickremasinghe has a big engine, which has been the main power source for the relocation of the old factory and is set to work slowly. Now its rotating shaft and line have been preserved, giving guests some ideas on how to switch from the mechanical past to the power of camel hair belt pulley in individual projects.

On the issue of logo, GCWickremasinghe decided to use the British logo to promote Ceylon tea that ruled Britain. They have a teapot engraved with the letter "T". The only change is to replace his Sangha Tam and Tea Ci and Yue.

The structure must be strengthened to accommodate the weight of 57 rooms, beds, cabinets, other furniture, fittings and accessories, plus the weight of 57 bathrooms and toilets.

Mr. Dayang of the Architectural Association and Mr. Dayananda of the British Institute of Chartered Engineers provided the design to strengthen the structure and carry out the necessary structural reforms. The main contractor is connection engineering co., ltd.

GCWickremasinghe is the project manager of Shanda Kuruppu. In addition to seeing an excellent ending through the project, Kuruppu also handled the 99-year factory lease and the surrounding 25-mu project from the Land Reform Commission. At that time, it was the longest lease granted to private sector organizations of the Land Reform Commission.

He also negotiated with local authorities and politicians on the asphalt road in Bora-Schachter, Kanda, before spending money in the government. Therefore, nuwara eliya established a bus service in Hershecht town. This is for those who have encountered more and more serious difficulties in entering the city before, selling products from neighboring villages and seeking medical assistance.

Tea Factory Hotel has made great contributions to the economic development of the surrounding Hershest village. GCWickremasinghe adheres to the "route" of working youth, and gives priority to employment opportunities when hotels pay for the supply of power transformers and the "route" of labor costs.

Generous donors to local kindergartens and nurseries.

The tea factory described in the following advertisement won one of many awards:

GCWickremasinghe attended the ceremony and discussed the privileges of this project with His Royal Highness Prince Charles. The prince is very interested because it has a rich history and has transformed an abandoned English building, which has provided great economic benefits to the villagers nearby.

The tea factory also won the UNESCO Asia-Pacific Cultural Relics 200 1 Award Competition. GCWickremasinghe and Roshan Fernando, then general managers of the tea factory, received the award certificates of the award ceremony held in Hong Kong in early 2002.

As for the review of the land registry of Hershecht's factory and real estate, history shows that the first owner of this property was William Flowerdew of 1879, who obtained this virgin land at an altitude of 6,800 feet from the government. After he named it Hershey, he was in his hometown of England.

And began to plant cinchona, tea and other crops.

The original plantation included 250 mu, of which 150 mu was planted. It was built in Cincinnati and the original factory from the end of1980s to the beginning of1990s. The latter was seriously damaged by fire during or after the First World War.

It was completely rebuilt in a modern building 0/00 yards away from the old website/kloc-,which was now occupied by the nursery couple in the early 1930s.

The best Ceylon tea produced by the new factory in the past 50 years is about 500,000 kilograms per year. Even the original basic factory, Flowerdew, has produced some excellent teas. Yin Jian tea was auctioned in Minxin and London at 189 1, which was 1,10s.6d-30 times the average price of tea at that time.

The factory was closed on 1973 due to cost cutting and outdated related machines.

Flowerdew's house, a log cabin, was built around 1883. Now I can't see it, and the modern superintendent's bungalow on its website has been built. The position is currently held by the assistant director of Hessite department.

From 1900 to 1925, Mr. Mike was a first-class superintendent and lived in the original cabin; A fact shows that in 1996 GCWickremasinghe was Mac layer's daughter, and then lived with her in Devon, England in the 1990s.

In order to know more about the Flowerdew family, GCWickremasinghe visited Hershecht, a charming place in Norich. The village of Flowerdews in England used to be a noble family. He was able to trace the descent of Flowerdew to 1470.

It used to be a landlord family, but after buying a little, it became unpopular and was widely isolated.

The degree of land use has been * * * comparable to that of Hearst villagers. This led to the most important event in Huxley's history, which occurred in 1549, when an uprising was held. Robert Kurt and his men demolished it, and isolated the ancestors of Hector Sehter from the flower dew. Robert Kurt,

Martyr and one of hershey's greatest figures was convicted of treason, imprisoned in the Tower of London and then hanged.

These events may have forced many people in Flowerdew to leave their villages, because it recorded that William Flowerdew You (the first owner of Hershest Tea Garden) was born in Angus Dundee Baptism in Aberdeen, Scotland,10 June17 June1831.

William was considered a tramp, and spent some time in South America and moved to Sri Lanka (then Ceylon, 1870, he bought a virgin crown near Bora, Kanda). He once again pointed out that in the early 1980s of 19, Nanji, the end of Seychelles, predicted the place where he tried to breed turtles. He died in 189 1 on March 23rd, and his grave is located at Seychelles International Airport.

William never got married. It is said that his family's papers were lost at sea.

The question that is often asked now is why Sehter is commonly known as "Toilet, Ratchet Totum" in Bora, Kanda, and "Toilet" in Elie, Nouara. Some people say that this is a direct translation of the dew point of the toilet into Tamil. It is more likely that they describe beauty as a "naked Tamil" who regularly falls on Sehter.
