Piel Island
Piel Island lies in Morecambe Bay , around off the southern tip of the Furness peninsula in the administrative county of Cumbria, England. It is one of the Islands of Furness, three of which sit near to Piel at the mouth of Walney Channel. The island is the location of Piel Castle, built by the monks of Furness Abbey in the fourteenth century. Historically within Lancashire, the island today is owned by the town of Barrow-in-Furness, having been given to the people by the Duke of Buccleuch in 1922. The Borough Council's administrative duties also include the selection of the "King" of Piel, who is the landlord of the island's public house, the Ship Inn. Piel is about in size. The landlord and their family are usually the only permanent residents, though there are eight old fishermen's cottages which are used by sailors or as second homes. History In the Middle Ages Piel was known as Fowdray (or Fouldrey or Fowdrey) island. This name would seem to be derived from the Old Nor ...

Piel Castle
Piel Castle, also known as Fouldry Castle or the Pile of Fouldray, is a castle situated on the south-eastern point of Piel Island, off the coast of the Furness Peninsula in north-west England. Built in the early-14th century by John Cockerham, the Abbot of neighbouring Furness Abbey, it was intended to oversee the trade through the local harbour and to protect against Scottish raids. The castle was built using stones from the local beach, and featured a large keep with surrounding inner and outer Bailey (fortification), baileys. It was used as a base by the Yorkist pretender Lambert Simnel in 1487, but by 1534 it had fallen into ruin and passed into the hands of the Crown. Sea erosion began to cause significant damage to the castle in the early 19th century. In the 1870s the castle's owner, the Walter Montagu Douglas Scott, 5th Duke of Buccleuch, Duke of Buccleuch, carried out extensive restoration work and erected outworks to protect it against further damage from the sea.

Arca (album)
''Arca'' is the third studio album by Venezuelan musician Arca, released on 7 April 2017 through XL Recordings. It is the first studio album to feature lead vocals by Arca herself, sung in her native language of Spanish. It was released to universal acclaim from critics. Background On 28 February 2016, Ghersi announced via Instagram that her new album would be titled ''Reverie'' and was almost finished, although on 22 February 2017, she announced that the album would in fact be self-titled ''Arca''. She explained in an interview for ''i-D'' magazine that she didn't want the album to be eponymous, it's more that every other name felt wrong: "I went through a whole year of trying different names, they all felt foreign. But because I use my singing voice in a way that I've never done before, it didn't feel unnatural to call it ''Arca''." The use of her voice on the new album was inspired by collaborator and friend, Björk: I don't know if I would've ever sung on this record if it ...
