    CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE ASSESSMENT Introduction the Princes Street Heritage Framework Study Area Comprises a Lo

    PRINCES STREET – CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE ASSESSMENT Introduction The Princes Street Heritage Framework study area comprises a long, section of the city centre extending along the full length of Princes Street, over a single city block and bounded by Rose Street to the north. The site lies within the New Town Conservation Area and the Edinburgh World Heritage Site. The site contains a substantial number of buildings included on the Statutory List of Buildings of Historic or Architectural Interest (14 Category A, 79 Category B, and 11 Category C). The purpose of the Heritage Framework was to better understand the features, details and planned form which give the area its historic character and identity, and to provide a context for its preservation, development and management. The study established the development sequence and form of the surviving James Craig plan, the individual historic structures and the townscape. A more detailed understanding and assessment of the character, quality and comparative cultural significance of individual buildings is now required as a prerequisite to making decisions about the future of the area. Cultural significance refers to the collection of values associated with a place which together identify why it is important. The Burra Charter suggests that ‘Cultural significance is embodied in the place itself, its fabric, setting, use, associations, meanings, records, related places and related objects’. Where decisions are being made about the future of historic buildings, their historic and architectural significance should be adequately assessed. This should form part of the master planning and design process, and the assessment undertaken at the earliest opportunity and before detailed proposals are drawn up for the regeneration.
  • 24Rd February 2021 Dear Chancellor, SHORT-TERM EMERGENCY

    24Rd February 2021 Dear Chancellor, SHORT-TERM EMERGENCY

    24rd February 2021 Dear Chancellor, SHORT-TERM EMERGENCY SUPPORT NEEDED IF THE HOSPITALITY SECTOR IS TO REACH THE END OF LOCKDOWN AND SECURE OUR RECOVERY The Prime Minister’s long-awaited roadmap out of the current lockdown is truly devastating to the tourism, hospitality and pub sector. The restrictions in place mean that there will be no sustainable reopening until 21st June, with May 17th the first opportunity for any reasonable trading. Restricted trading does not allow breakeven across the industry, so it is crucial that the 21st June date is kept to. The length of this delay will severely jeopardise the survival of large numbers of businesses in our sector. We will miss the critical Easter period and the first May Bank Holiday weekend – and will have only traded one bank holiday in the last year. This will be particularly harmful to seasonal and businesses. Britain’s diverse tourism offer risks getting off to an extremely slow start. The latest ONS data shows that a fifth of hospitality businesses will run out of cash by the end of February, and an additional two-thirds will be out of cash before the May reopening date. The situation is truly perilous for businesses and jobs. There is a significant gap between the current support provided by the Government and the fixed outgoings associated with a closed hospitality business. These will vary by size and location, but an average size pub or restaurant could be having to pay out £10,000 per month. Hotels, tourism and leisure sites will be paying hundreds of thousands of pounds a month in fixed costs.
