A site Notice was displayed between 28/04/2021 and 22/05/2021, and a press notice published in the Ham & High on 28/04/2021. Three letters of objection and one letter of support were received. The letters of objection related to the setting of designated heritage assets, and the appropriateness of this work of art in this location. They are reproduced below for reference: Objection: The cemetery site is consecrated ground. A lift and tunnel were built to ensure bodies receiving funeral rites never touched un consecrated ground. This structure evokes a 'portal' to a 'red. Zone' which may be considered to be Hell due to its colours and flamed design. While encouraging artistic expression on such arenas this work could be considered the antithesis of "sympathetic" and indeed mocks tradition rather than provokes thought. Siting on non-consecrated ground may be an option but it is unlikely the original builders or their deceased clients would have permitted such a flagrant affront to their resting place. Tourists would be drawn by its notoriety to this mocking of tradition rather than note its respect for it. Objection: Highgate Cemetery is not the right location for this sculpture. Waterlow Park is just across the road and would provide a far more suitable place for a work of this kind. The sculpture will neither preserve nor enhance the important Columbarium (colonnade structure) and as such it should not Summary of be located here, nor indeed anywhere in what is a very sensitive Grade 1 consultation listed site overall (with many Grade II Listed monuments and other responses: structures within the immediate vicinity). Objection: This is yet another attempt of the management of the cemetery to increase the footfall and bring more visitors to the site that is intended to be a place of rest and peace. It is out of touch with the original purpose of burial site and inconsiderate of families and friends of those who rest there. If we change our perception of what burial sites are in terms of engagement with art, will it embolden those who think that cafe to be developed on site is an appropriate course of action? (Please note the Development Type is Commercial Minor Alterations). Why do we have nature reserves as a protected areas of importance for flora and fauna (where footfall and human presence is monitored) but we disregard humans? I agree with previous comment that Waterlow Park is a more suitable place for the sculpture. One letter of support was received stating: …. writing in support of this project, from LUX, an arts organisation based in Waterlow Park which adjoins the cemetery. Phyllida Barlow CBE RA is an artist of great renown and is producing a site specific sculptural work responding to the context of Highgate Cemetery. This project will make a great contribution to the cultural life of the area in an outdoor covid-safe environment, as well as offering free public access to the work of a significant contemporary artist it will also offer new ways to reflect on and experience the courtyard of Highgate Cemetery, a space that is usually not accessible to general public outside of tours. Furthermore it offers an opportunity to experience the work of acclaimed arts institution Studio Voltaire outside of their space in South London. Highgate CAAC: Offered no comments. The Highgate Neighbourhood Forum: CAAC/Local groups* The Forum wrote in support of the application comments: Highgate Society: No response. Site Description The original Western Cemetery, opened 1839, was created by Geary's London Cemetery Company. The romantic layout, over approximately 17 acres, was designed by David Ramsay. The Cemetery is listed Grade I on the Historic England Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest. The West Cemetery is entered via a grand gateway in the Tudor Gothic style. With a central four-centred archway displaying a plaque inscribed "London Cemetery" and having the City of London Coat of Arms, above which a drip mould. The main entrance is flanked by two Chapels with two storey polygonal turrets having lancet windows and polygonal terminal features flank gateway and similar blind turrets at angles; a central two storey narrow canted bay window with pointed lights to each chapel and with crenellated parapets. Subsidiary features include, attached to north and south facades of chapels, cast-iron traceried railings on brick sleeper walls with entrance gateways having octagonal stone piers with ogival finials and cast-iron traceried double gates. Fig 1. Site of the proposed temporary artwork When the eastern cemetery was opened, due to popular demand, in 1855 the Anglican chapel was fitted with a hydraulic bier which lowered coffins into a tunnel leading under the road to the new cemetery; much of this remains. All of these structures are Grade II listed. The site is also within Highgate Conservation Area (also known as Highgate Village CA). The cemetery is also in a Site of Importance to Nature Conservation (SINC) and is designated as Open Space / Metropolitan Open Land (MOL). Relevant History There is planning history relating to works to the buildings and structures of the Western Cemetery Highgate. There is no relevant planning history relating to the display of art in this location. Relevant policies NPPF 2019 London Plan 2021 Camden Local Plan 2017 D1 Design D2 Heritage A2 Open space A3 Biodiversity C3 Cultural and leisure facilities Highgate Neighbourhood Plan OS1 Highgate’s Major Open Spaces DH2 Development Proposals in Highgate’s Conservation Areas Camden Planning Guidance Artworks, statues and memorials 2019 Design 2021 Public open space 2021 Assessment 1.0 Heritage and design This application concerns the temporary display of “Stack” - a sculpture installation by the artist Phyllida Barlow CBE RA. Fig 2. Artist’s impression The piece is to be displayed within the cobbled courtyard which is entered through the gatehouse of the main entrance to the West Cemetery. This is a generous open space flanked by the Chapels of Highgate Cemetery and with a backdrop formed by the memorial Columbarium and the War Memorial. The open aspect will allow for the display to be fully appreciated while not impeding access. The display of “Stack” is backed by Studio Voltaire, a leading not for profit arts based organisation and a registered charity. The art work will be accessible to all during Highgate Cemetery’s public opening hours and free of charge to visit. The art-work is to be free standing and will not be fixed to the Cemetery fabric. It will be entirely reversible. Consent is sought for three months, with the installation of the piece taking place between 5th and 16th July 2021 and the public visiting dates from 17th July to 29th August 2021. Highgate Cemetery forms a large and important part of the Conservation Area, mainly in its own right, but also through its contribution of open space which is part of the wider significance of the conservation area. Many of the monuments and tombs are individually listed and their setting within the cemetery contributes to their significance along with their architectural detail and historical importance. In recognition of this cemetery setting and the importance of the landscaping, the cemetery is also included in the List of Historic Parks and Gardens. The cumulative significance of these designated assets reflects their importance to the conservation area as a formal landscaped open space. The display of “Stack” is totally reversible and will cause no harm to the physical fabric or the setting of the listed structures within the entrance to the cemetery. It is a piece of artwork that will sit confidently within its landscaped surroundings, and only for a short temporary period. The proposal will there preserve the character and appearance of the Historic Park and Garden, the Conservation Area, and the setting of the listed buildings in line with Local Plan Policies D1 and D2, and Neighbourhood Plan policy DH2. Special attention has been paid to the desirability of preserving or enhancing the significance of the heritage assets, under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, and as set out within the NPPF. 2.0 Open space and SINC The proposal is on MOL but the impact on the open space in is negligible given its scale and temporary nature, and it will have no notable impact on openness, especially given its siting in the courtyard.

    RESEARCH GUIDE Cemetery Records Research Guide 5: Cemetery Records CONTENTS Introduction Main cemetery records held at LMA Bunhill Fields (CLC/271) New Bunhill Fields, Islington (B/NBF) The City of London Cemetery, Little Ilford (CLA/052) The City of London and Tower Hamlets Cemetery (CTHC) Other cemetery records at LMA Indexes and Transcripts in the LMA Library Records held elsewhere Introduction Before the mid-19th century most burials in London took place in churchyards and from the mid-16th century were recorded in parish registers. Some hospitals and other institutions had their own burial grounds. From the time of the Black Death special burial grounds outside the City walls were provided for people who died from the periodic epidemics of plague which afflicted London. Land to the north of the Artillery Ground known as Bunhill Fields was set aside in 1665 as a plague burial ground, but was not used for this purpose. It then became a burial ground for nonconformists. After 1690 many nonconformist meeting houses and chapels were established in London some of which had their own burial grounds. By the late 18th century the London churchyards were becoming overcrowded. New cemeteries were established as private speculations generally offering slightly lower charges for burials than the churchyards. Some of these burial grounds were originally connected to chapels adjoining them, but were subsequently bought by private individuals. By 1835 there were at least fourteen such burial grounds in London including Spa Fields, Clerkenwell, opposite London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) where about 80, 000 people were buried. An enquiry in 1843 discovered that about 40 burials were taking place each day.

You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 6 The Televised Crisis The Clangers was a children’s animated television series featuring what their creator Oliver Postgate described as ‘a small tribe or extended family of civil mouse-like persons living their peaceful lives on, in and around a small, undis- tinguished moon’. They were ‘plump and shocking pink, with noses that were long, perhaps for sucking up … soup’.1 Originally broadcast on BBC One during 1969–72, the series was repeated many times thereafter. On the night of 10 October 1974 the BBC showed a special episode, ‘Vote for Froglet’, one designed for grown-ups, in which the narrator informs the Clangers that ‘the proudest moment of the British people [is] a parliamentary election’. The purpose of the episode was, however, not to celebrate the state of democracy on the day the country went to the polls. Postgate had something he wanted to get off his chest. The grandson of George Lansbury, who led the Labour party during 1932–5, Postgate was from a left-wing bohemian family. Yet, as the post-war period developed, he came to believe that ‘the prospect of a just and loving social order based on the principles of true socialism’, for which his grandfather and parents had worked, would not materialize.

  • Highgate Cemetery Bill [HL]
    Highgate Cemetery Bill [HL] EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM This Bill is promoted by the Friends of Highgate Cemetery Trust (“the Trust”). The purpose of this Bill is to authorise the Trust to extinguish rights of burial in grave spaces, and to disturb and reinter human remains in graves in order to increase the space for further interments in such graves and improve Highgate Cemetery (“the cemetery”), as well as powers to use appropriately or remove altogether from the cemetery any memorials on such graves. It would provide the Trust with equivalent powers to those that are already available to local authority run burial grounds and certain private burial authorities in London. The Bill also repeals outdated and redundant legislation applying to the cemetery, and confirms the Trust’s powers to operate and manage the cemetery following those repeals. Clause 1 gives the short title of the Bill and provides for it to come into force 28 days after it is passed. Clause 2 defines certain expressions used in the Bill. The cemetery is currently operated under the London Cemetery Company Act 1836, London Cemetery Company Act 1843 and London Cemetery Company Act 1911, which provided for the laying out of the cemetery, and conferred various functions on the London Cemetery Company to manage the cemetery. As the London Cemetery Company has been dissolved, and the cemetery is now operated by the Trust, it is proposed to repeal the 1836, 1843 and 1911 Acts. Clause 3 confirms the Trust’s powers to operate and manage the cemetery following those repeals. Clause 3 is based substantially on Article 3 of the Local Authorities’ Cemeteries Order 1977.

However, it is also a city well-served by open spaces. There are numerous small parks which provide relief retreat from city life, while areas such as Richmond Park and Riverside, Hyde Park, Hampstead Heath, Epping Forest and Wimbledon Common are real recreational treasures. Although not so obviously popular, many of our cemeteries and churchyards provide a much overlooked such amenity. Many of those established in Victorian times were designed to be used as places of recreation by the public as well as places of burial. Many are still in use and remain beautiful and interesting places for quiet walks. Some, on ceasing active use for burials, have been developed as wildlife sanctuaries and community parks. As is the case with parklands, there are some especially splendid cemeteries in the capital which stand out from the rest. I would personally recommend the City of London, Islington and St.
