  • The Crystal Palace
    The Crystal Palace The Crystal Palace was a cast-iron and plate-glass structure originally The Crystal Palace built in Hyde Park, London, to house the Great Exhibition of 1851. More than 14,000 exhibitors from around the world gathered in its 990,000-square-foot (92,000 m2) exhibition space to display examples of technology developed in the Industrial Revolution. Designed by Joseph Paxton, the Great Exhibition building was 1,851 feet (564 m) long, with an interior height of 128 feet (39 m).[1] The invention of the cast plate glass method in 1848 made possible the production of large sheets of cheap but strong glass, and its use in the Crystal Palace created a structure with the greatest area of glass ever seen in a building and astonished visitors with its clear walls and ceilings that did not require interior lights. It has been suggested that the name of the building resulted from a The Crystal Palace at Sydenham (1854) piece penned by the playwright Douglas Jerrold, who in July 1850 General information wrote in the satirical magazine Punch about the forthcoming Great Status Destroyed Exhibition, referring to a "palace of very crystal".[2] Type Exhibition palace After the exhibition, it was decided to relocate the Palace to an area of Architectural style Victorian South London known as Penge Common. It was rebuilt at the top of Town or city London Penge Peak next to Sydenham Hill, an affluent suburb of large villas. It stood there from 1854 until its destruction by fire in 1936. The nearby Country United Kingdom residential area was renamed Crystal Palace after the famous landmark Coordinates 51.4226°N 0.0756°W including the park that surrounds the site, home of the Crystal Palace Destroyed 30 November 1936 National Sports Centre, which had previously been a football stadium Cost £2 million that hosted the FA Cup Final between 1895 and 1914.

  • Cht Highbury Landscape History 1878-Present and Restoration Proposals
    1 CHT HIGHBURY LANDSCAPE HISTORY 1878-PRESENT AND RESTORATION PROPOSALS © Chamberlain Highbury Trust 2021 2 CHT HIGHBURY LANDSCAPE HISTORY 1878-PRESENT AND RESTORATION PROPOSALS Introduction The gardens of Highbury are of considerable historic importance and a great asset to Birmingham. They were laid out from 1879 to 1914 and were the creation of Joseph Chamberlain the head of Birmingham’s most distinguished political family, who employed the well-known landscape architect, Edward Milner, and subsequently his son Henry. In their day the gardens of Highbury were the most renowned in Birmingham, and possibly the West Midlands. They were widely written about in the national press and provided the setting for Chamberlain’s entertaining of leading politicians and his Birmingham associates. The fame of Highbury was due to the fact that within the thirty acres there were many different features and these contributed to the feel of being in the country on a large estate rather than in the suburbs of a major industrial city. They display the quintessence of high Victorian taste in gardening, and, moreover the taste of one man having been created on an undeveloped agricultural site and having remained largely intact and substantially unaltered since Joseph Chamberlain’s death in 1914. The fact that much of the grounds became a public park in 1921and the rest remained with Chamberlain’s former home which became an institution, has resulted in their preservation from development. The significance of the Highbury landscape is recognised by its listing at Grade 11 on the E H Register of Gardens and Parks of Special Historical Significance.

Sitting on a good-sized plot (0.41 acres) with mature gardens, tucked away on a private road, Vicarage Cottage is within walking distance of all local amenities, schools and shops, yet peaceful and separate from the hustle and bustle of the town centre. Bakewell is home to both of the popular and renowned schools, Lady Manners School and St. Anselm’s Preparatory School. KEY FEATURES Ground Floor On entering the property through the original high arched coach house doorway, an abundance of features, such as high ceilings, large doorways, deep skirting boards, and original stable fittings immediately offer the viewer a sense of the history of the house. The ground floor boasts ample flexible use options and has three good sized reception rooms, the first of which is a family dining room with large picture windows, a mirrored wall which further reflects the light and creates the illusion of more space.

It lies to the north of the busy town centre besides the expansive Back Water lagoon as a buffer between town and country. 1.3 A slip of land, the park and gardens were created in part to alleviate local unemployment through land reclamation within an area with an ancient history of trade and industry. In fact, the site is the only realised part of a much more ambitious scheme: Radipole Lakes, wherein leading landscape designers, Milner Son & White promoted a series of island destinations complete with tea gardens, boating lakes and sports facilities.

  • Preface: Will the Real Edward Kemp Step Forward? History Has Not Been Kind to Edward Kemp
    robert lee preface: will the real edward kemp step forward? history has not been kind to edward kemp. he is recognized as a ‘leading fgure in the design of parks and gardens’ in mid-Victorian england, but despite his status as one of the most important and innovative landscape gardeners of his time, his achievements have been studiously neglected by landscape historians, at least until recently. all too often, coverage of kemp’s designs, whether for parks, cemeteries or offcial institutions, as well as private clients, has been very limited. Brent elliott’s Victorian Gardens (1986) includes a number of references to him, focusing on his advocacy of selecting plants that would harmonize with the residences of private clients, his approval of ‘globular or pyramidical, or conical, or square shapes’, and his preference for using rocky outcrops and plantations to create discrete enclosures in parks.1 But all the material was taken from kemp’s own writings without a wider analysis of how his designs evolved over time and with little consideration of his clients’ changing demands. indeed, there has never been a rigorous study of kemp’s landscape designs, even though it is acknowledged that ‘his words had weight’. the lives and achievements of other famous landscape gardeners, such as lancelot ‘capability’ Brown (1716–73), Uvedale price (1747–1829), Joseph paxton (1803–65), shirley hibberd (1805–90) and william robinson (1838–95), have all merited closer analysis through the publication of biographies and learned papers, although even in the case of Brown, at least before the tercentenary of his birth, it was recognized by david Jacques that research about him, as well as his rivals and associates, was still ‘intermittent’ and ‘fragmentary’.2 But, to my knowledge, kemp’s important contributions to landscape design in the nineteenth century have been almost entirely ignored; a proper biography has yet to be written; and Garden History has never been in a position to publish a paper on his achievements.

  • 'In This Book-Making Age': Edward Kemp As Writer and Communicator
    david bawden ‘in this book-making age’: edward kemp as writer and communicator of horticultural knowledge Edward Kemp, although best known as a park superintendent and a designer of parks and gardens, was also an infuential and best-selling author. His how to lay out a garden, running into several editions, is the best known and most infuential of his written works, but there were others, notably editions of the hand-book of gardening and parks, gardens, etc. of london and its suburbs, the frst ever such regional survey. Kemp assisted Joseph Paxton with the editing of his publications, and was a regular and thoughtful contributor to magazines, most notably the gardeners’ chronicle, where his critiques, such as that of the then new gardens of Biddulph Grange, Staffordshire, received considerable attention. He, along with John Gibson and Edward Milner, was one the protégées of Paxton who did so much for the dissemination of horticultural knowledge, as authors, editors and compilers, in the midst of the nineteenth-century communications revolution. This paper considers Kemp’s role and infuence as an innovative writer and disseminator, considering the structure, format, content and reception of his published work, his relationship with his publishers, and his place in the Victorian information world. ‘what a small world it was becoming’ it is a salutary axiom, especially in this book-making age, that no volume should be sent before the public without something beyond a private reason for its appearance.1 he talked of what a small world it was becoming: not just because modern transport could shrink distances but because scholarship had made almost all languages intelligible, and means of communication were revolutionized also.

  • Edward Kemp (1817–91) in a Nineteenth-Century Professional Context
    jan woudstra ‘one of the ablest landscape gardeners’: edward kemp (1817–91) in a nineteenth-century professional context When Edward Kemp was born in 1817, the world of landscape gardening was still dominated by Humphry Repton, who had written the key works, which had also popularized the term ‘landscape gardening’ and provided a theoretical basis. In the years that followed, John Claudius Loudon provided some standard works for landscape gardening, including the suburban gardener (London, 1838), which translated the design principles into a wider range of properties, and catered for the middle as well as upper classes. The emerging profession also saw a considerable widening of its feld of work in which designers were engaged not only in the design of country seats but also with public parks, cemeteries, housing, schools and other institutions. Kemp was very much part of this movement and he participated in the increasing number of design competitions, but not all his entries were successful. One instance when he contributed a design – the competition for Queen’s Park, Manchester – became a celebrated case that focused the debate around public park design. The debate clearly set out some of the parameters of the profession, which from this point onward was divided into two camps: the Paxton School (in which Kemp played a prominent role) and the Marnock School. This paper explores the contemporary debates and design principles that distinguished these schools and looks at how this debate played a critical role in the development of the landscape profession. when edward kemp was born in 1817 the world of landscape gardening was still dominated by humphry repton, who had written the key works, which had also popularized the term ‘landscape gardening’ and provided it with a theoretical basis.

  • Edward Kemp (1817–91): ‘An Able and Useful Man’
    elizabeth davey edward kemp (1817–91): ‘an able and useful man’ Edward Kemp was one of the mid-Victorian period’s most infuential landscape gardeners and a respected author of several gardening publications. Despite this, details of his early life are sparse. Born in 1817 in Streatham, then Surrey, he was the son and grandson of Nonconformist tailors. Growing up in an area still essentially rural, his interest in plants led him to train as a landscape gardener at the London Horticultural Society Gardens in Chiswick, Middlesex, before moving to Chatsworth, Derbyshire, to work under Joseph Paxton. When Paxton was commissioned to design a park for Birkenhead, Wirral, the frst publicly funded park in the world, Kemp was appointed to oversee its laying out, eventually being appointed its permanent superintendant. His writing combined with the growing reputation of Birkenhead Park brought him numerous private commissions. Despite this, Kemp remained frmly rooted in Birkenhead, remaining in the town for the rest of his life. In 1863, an assistant park superintendent was appointed and his role became that of ‘Consulting Superintendent’. He never, however, severed his connection with the park, advising the authorities on park-related matters when well into his seventies and living in his house on its periphery until he died and was buried in Flaybrick, the cemetery he had laid out for the Birkenhead Commissioners some thirty years previously. This paper seeks to reconstruct kemp’s life in order to provide a proper context within which to evaluate his professional career and achievements as a landscape gardener and author.
