    70-72 LA COLOMBERIE,ST HELIER,JERSEY Report in response to an objection to the proposed Listing(grade 4) Background In January 2015, an appeal was submitted by MS Planning, on behalf of the owner, against the proposed listing (grade 4)of 70-72 La Colomberie (Colomberie Coach Station). Consequently, Jersey Heritage commissioned me to write a report on the value of the proposed listing, as I had undertaken the resurvey assessment of the building in January 2013. I am a qualified architect and have worked on a broad range of new-build and refurbishment projects in London and Ireland.I graduated from Edinburgh University in 1981 (MA Arch) and returned to York University, Institute of Advanced Architectural Studies in 1990 to obtain an MA. Over the last ten years my work has focusedon heritage -its protection and regeneration. Between 2010 and 2013 I was involved in the Historic Environment Resurvey of Jersey where I gained a detailed knowledge of the built environment across the Island. I have also undertaken listed building survey work for the Second Survey of Historic Buildings in N. Ireland.Since 2009 I have been a member of the statutory Historic Buildings Council of N. Ireland advising on the listing of buildings. Colomberie Coach Station Colomberie Coach Stationsits on the south side of La Colomberie within an area of 1950s development including Colomberie Parade opposite.

  • Channel Islands Telegraph Company
    A History of the Telegraph in Jersey 1858 – 1940 Graeme Marett MIET This edition July 2009 1 The Telegraph System. Jersey, being only a relatively small outpost of the British Empire, was fortunate in having one of the earliest submarine telegraph systems. Indeed the installation of the first UK-Channel Islands link was made concurrently with the first attempted (but abortive) trans-Atlantic cable in 18581. There was some British Government interest in the installation of such a cable, since the uncertain relationship with the French over the past century had led to the fortification of the Channel Islands as a measure to protect Channel shipping lanes. The islands were substantially fortified and garrisons were maintained well into the early part of the twentieth century. Indeed, the Admiralty had installed an Optical Telegraph between the islands during the Napoleonic wars using a bespoke system developed by Mulgrave2. Optical signalling using a two arm semaphore was carried out between Alderney and Sark and Sark to Jersey and Guernsey. The main islands of Jersey and Guernsey had a network of costal stations. This system was abandoned by the military at the end of the conflict in 1814, but the States of Jersey were loaned the stations and continued to use the system for several years thereafter for commercial shipping. The optical semaphore links between La Moye, Noimont and St Helier continued until a telegraph line was installed in April 1887 between La Moye and St Helier. There is still some evidence of this telegraph network at Telegraph Bay in Alderney, where a fine granite tower is preserved, and the Signalling Point at La Moye, Jersey which survives as a private residence.

Dennis had been in failing health for several years, but had managed to attend the meeting on 2nd June. He was an out-and-out railway enthusiast, to the exclusion of almost everything else in life, and had an enormous knowledge of railway matters. The Editor is unfortunately unaware of any family to whom we may offer condolences, but he will be missed. The inaugural Grand Central service from West Yorkshire to London duly departed from Interchange on Sunday morning 23rd May, calling at Halifax, Brighouse, Wakefield Kirkgate, Pontefract Monkhill, Doncaster and London Kings Cross. It was a beautiful day, ideal for photos – see the colour pages in this issue - a number of Circle members were aboard the service, and others photographed it. Unfortunately, the weather was so warm and sunny that dandelions seeded in profusion and clogged up the air intakes on the return journey, causing three of the four engines to shut down and resulting in a late arrival. “The best-laid plans of mice and men ...” Apologies for the small size of this issue, but apart from Ben‟s Bits and a couple of Outer Circle articles, THERE‟S NOTHING LEFT.

  • Editorial for Those Who Have Not Already Heard, the National Model Railway Convention Due to Be Held in Durban and Pietermaritzburg in September Has Been Cancelled
    THE NORTH STAR CHRONICLES – a newsletter primarily for the model railway fraternity Volume 3 no, 5 May 2015 Editor: David Cairns e-mail: [email protected] Website for back copies: https://sites.google.com/a/steamtrains.co.za/steam/garden-railways/the- north-star-chronicles Phone: +27 82 653 5642 Editorial For those who have not already heard, the National Model Railway Convention due to be held in Durban and Pietermaritzburg in September has been cancelled. The organising committee felt that there was insufficient support amongst the model railway community to warrant hosting the event. Needless to say the decision has been met with less than universal acclaim but the decision had been made. One of the privileges of my job is regular travel to the UK, Channel Islands and Isle of Man. This NSC and the next will feature one of these destinations namely Jersey. This month the lead article will be the railways which operated on the island while next month will feature an OO layout belonging to a Jersey resident. But first a postscript in fact two postscripts to last month's article on the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway. Firstly, while trawling through back copies of the UK magazine 'Garden Rail' (incidentally the annual cost of a digital subscription is £29.50 - great value because it gives you access to 9 years back issues - a treasure trove of information on larger scale model railways) I came across an article in the March 2009 edition, no 175, on building a model of a funicular railway by John Coulson - 'Fun Funicular'.
