Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust, a Registered Charity Established by Government, in 1984 When the Site Passed from MOD Ownership THE HISTORIC DOCKYARD CHATHAM CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLAN 5th Edition (2017-22) February 2017 THE HISTORIC DOCKYARD CHATHAM CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLAN 5TH EDITION 2017-22 The substantially intact 18th and early 19th century naval dockyard at Chatham, with the exceptional survival of many of its interior finishes and equipment together with its contemporary massive landward defences and associated military infrastructure, is without close parallel. Overall, no other dockyard of the heyday of the age of sail and the early period of the age of steam can compare with the scale, variety and largely complete survival of naval dockyard and military defence infrastructure found at Chatham today, including the completeness of building interiors. While a degree of commonality across European dockyards exists as a result of their similar purposes and the legalised and covert interchange of ideas and practice, Chatham is the outstanding surviving example, reflecting a huge variety of influences and ideas Comparator Significance Analysis 2013 iii THE HISTORIC DOCKYARD CHATHAM CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLAN 5TH EDITION 2017-22 STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The Historic Dockyard at Chatham is a site of exceptional international maritime heritage significance. Encompassing an area of around 80 acres, with approximately 100 buildings and structures it was in use as a Royal Dockyard from 1613 to 1984 and is arguably the most complete Dockyard of the Age of Sail to survive in the world. It also contains a number of important later 19th Century structures. The Historic Dockyard played a highly important and significant role in supporting the Royal Navy for over three hundred years, building over 400 ships including HMS Victory, Nelson’s flagship at Trafalgar and repairing and maintaining thousands more. In that time the Royal Navy achieved and maintained an unrivalled mastery of the seas – a critical factor in the development of Britain’s global influence. The significance of the site is enhanced by its close historical associations and proximity to other historic sites, in particular those directly developed as a result of the dockyard’s existence including its defences (the Chatham Lines and Upnor Castle), the Edwardian naval barracks (HMS Pembroke) and the Georgian military barracks at Brompton. In 1998 and 2011 the Historic Dockyard was included on the UK government’s Tentative List as a potential future World Heritage Site. Detailed analysis of the site and other national and international comparators undertaken between 2010 and 2013 concluded that “ no other dockyard of the heyday of the age of sail and the early period of the age of steam can compare with the scale, variety and largely complete survival of naval dockyard and military defence infrastructure found at Chatham today, including the completeness of building interiors” iv THE HISTORIC DOCKYARD CHATHAM CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLAN 5TH EDITION 2017-22 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This plan identifies why the Historic Dockyard at Chatham is significant, sets the buildings and structures in a local, regional, national and international context and provides a framework for retaining that significance in the long term whilst allowing for its ongoing management and regeneration. In respect of the Historic Dockyard estate this Plan also relates to the wider Chatham Dockyard & Its Defences Management Plan which continues to inform the conservation of the wider site. The Historic Dockyard is a site of outstanding international maritime heritage significance that played a highly important and significant role in supporting the Royal Navy for over three hundred years. Encompassing an area of 80 acres, the site contains over 100 buildings and structures, 47 are scheduled as ancient monuments, with 54 listed as Historic Buildings, eleven at Grade I, and thirty two at Grade II* The site is also designated as a Conservation Area. Today it is the world’s most complete dockyard of the age of sail The freehold of the Historic Dockyard was vested in Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust, a registered charity established by government, in 1984 when the site passed from MOD ownership. The Trust retains overall management and control of the majority of the site with two principle exceptions – long term leases have been granted to Historic Dockyard Property Ltd relating to a number of residential properties and an area of the Historic Dockyard to the north of the Mast Houses & Mould Loft has been vested in Historic Dockyard Property(2005) Ltd, both are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Trust. A key objective of the Trust is to secure a sustainable future for the site to enable it to meet its three core objectives of: Preservation – to maintain excellence in the sympathetic preservation and use of The Historic Dockyard, its buildings, ships and collections Education – to engage the most diverse audiences in learning about the significance and role of the former Royal Dockyard at Chatham Experiences –to provide an unmatched, inspirational and enjoyable experience for all users of The Historic Dockyard that exceeds their expectations The Trust’s overall strategy to achieve this, Preservation Through Reuse seeks to build sufficient earned income from the appropriate adaptation and re-use of the dockyard’s buildings and structures to enable the Trust to become financially self- sufficient on a revenue basis to secure the long term sustainability of the Historic Dockyard. This plan sets out a range of over-arching conservation policies that will underpin the Trust’s approach to the ongoing conservation and regeneration of the site. Individual assessments are provided for each significant building or structure, which, where appropriate, also include building or site specific policies. v THE HISTORIC DOCKYARD CHATHAM CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLAN 5TH EDITION 2017-22 CONTENTS STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY iii Preface To Revised Plan iv 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1 2.0 UNDERSTANDING THE SITE 8 2.1 Historical Summary 8 2.2 Literary and Artistic Associations 19 2.3 Architectural & Character Appraisal 21 2.4 Below Ground Archaeology 26 2.5 Other Issues Affecting Significance 26 3.0 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SITE 29 4.0 MANAGING THE SITE 48 4.1 Management Approach 48 4.2 Conservation Policies 52 5.0 IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY 61 5.1 Organisation & Structure 61 5.2 Strategic Corporate Plan 61 5.3 Key Conservation Objectives 61 5.4 Planned Preventative Maintenance 62 5.5 Tentative World Heritage Site 65 5.6 Liaison with Statutory Authorities 65 5.7 Review 65 vi THE HISTORIC DOCKYARD CHATHAM CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLAN 5TH EDITION 2017-22 Preface To Revised Plan The first edition of the Conservation Management Plan for the Historic Dockyard was prepared in 1998. Subsequent editions in 2004, 2008 and 2011 each revised aspects of the plan, incorporating new knowledge and understanding of the site, its associations and relationships. In particular the policies and implementation sections of the plan reflect changes in the Trust’s management regime for the site following the investment of over £60m in the site’s buildings, structures, galleries and ships, including £28m funding from the National Lottery through the Heritage Lottery Fund. In 2016 The Trust agreed a new Scheduled Monument Class Consent with the Secretary of State for the Department of Culture Media & Sport introducing new arrangements for streamlined approval for routine maintenance, works and agreed repairs, all under the oversight of Historic England. The revised plan was adopted by the Trust’s Board of Management at its meeting of 16 February 2017 Richard Holdsworth Preservation & Education Director Acknowledgements CHDT acknowledge the help provided by Jonathon Coad, by Tom Foxall and Peter Kendall of Historic England and of Kathy Blackwood who contributed the visual and character appraisal brought forward from the previous editions of the Conservation Plan and Nigel Howard, of Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust. vii THE HISTORIC DOCKYARD CHATHAM CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLAN 5TH EDITION 2017-22 Record of Changes & Amendments Date Change By 16 Feb 2017 5 year revision P& E Director viii THE HISTORIC DOCKYARD CHATHAM CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT PLAN 5TH EDITION 2017-22 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose of Plan This Conservation Management Plan identifies why the Historic Dockyard at Chatham is significant, sets the site, its buildings, and structures in local, national and international contexts, and provides a framework for its on-going preservation and management. The Plan underpins the wider Chatham Dockyard & Its Defences World Heritage Site Management Plan in respect of The Historic Dockyard estate. 1.2 Location & Extent of the Historic Dockyard The dockyard is located to the north of Chatham town centre on the southern bank of the River Medway. Occupying an area of some 32 hectares (80 acres) the yard was in continuous occupation by the Royal Navy from 1613 to 1984. The Historic Dockyard forms part of a larger assemblage of land and facilities once occupied by the Navy at Chatham that included the Ordnance Wharf and Marine Barracks to the south and the Dockyard Extension to the north. This latter part of the yard was built from 1865 to service the Steam Navy and from 1903 to provide shore- based naval barracks and training facilities. Associated with the Historic Dockyard, but not part of it, are the Chatham Lines, an important range of 18th Century fortifications, including Brompton & Kitchener Barracks and Fort Amherst, and on the opposite bank of the Medway, the Elizabethan Castle and ordnance depot at Upnor. 1.3 Ownership The freehold of the Historic Dockyard is vested in the Chatham Historic Dockyard Trust, [the Trust], a Registered Charity established by government following the Dockyard’s closure in March 1984. The Trust has two core charitable objectives: To secure for the public benefit the preservation and use of the historic dockyard at Chatham in the County of Kent in a manner appropriate to its archaeological, historical and architectural importance To promote and foster for the public benefit a wide knowledge and understanding of the archaeological, historical and architectural significance of the Historic Dockyard.

  • Part 4: Conclusions and Recommendations & Appendices
    Twentieth Century Naval Dockyards Devonport and Portsmouth: Characterisation Report PART FOUR CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The final focus of this report is to develop the local, national and international contexts of the two dockyards to highlight specific areas of future research. Future discussion of Devonport and Portsmouth as distinct designed landscapes would coherently organise the many strands identified in this report. The Museum of London Archaeology Portsmouth Harbour Hinterland Project carried out for Heritage England (2015) is a promising step in this direction. It is emphasised that this study is just a start. By delivering the aim and objectives, it has indicated areas of further fruitful research. Project aim: to characterise the development of the active naval dockyards at Devonport and Portsmouth, and the facilities within the dockyard boundaries at their maximum extent during the twentieth century, through library, archival and field surveys, presented and analysed in a published report, with a database of documentary and building reports. This has been delivered through Parts 1-4 and Appendices 2-4. Project objectives 1 To provide an overview of the twentieth century development of English naval dockyards, related to historical precedent, national foreign policy and naval strategy. 2 To address the main chronological development phases to accommodate new types of vessels and technologies of the naval dockyards at Devonport and Portsmouth. 3 To identify the major twentieth century naval technological revolutions which affected British naval dockyards. 4 To relate the main chronological phases to topographic development of the yards and changing technological and strategic needs, and identify other significant factors. 5 To distinguish which buildings are typical of the twentieth century naval dockyards and/or of unique interest.

  • Fire! Heat! Sweat! Sand! and with Pride! an Ex-Employee of HM Dockyard, Portsmouth Looks Back
    Fire! Heat! Sweat! Sand! and With Pride! An Ex-Employee of HM Dockyard, Portsmouth Looks Back. Chapter 1 - A NEW BEGINNING Is it a good thing to look back to the past? I suppose, really, it depends on whether one has had a very happy childhood and home life, or one of utter sadness and sorrow that the individual wishes to blot out the past totally for the rest of his or her life. That, one can sympathise certainly with the individual concerned. However in my case I was very lucky that I was in the former category. Yes, times were hard - my late lovely parents and my late lovely married sister, earning a living during the 1950s, found it hard to make ends meet; but we were very happy with what we had, and our home at No 7 Rochester Road Southsea, in the historic city of Portsmouth, right on the South Coast of the United Kingdom, and home of course to the Royal Navy.1 I am now retired but went out into the big wide world to earn a living, at the tender age of 15, in January 1960, my final year at school in 1959, my birthday falling in December of that year, as it does every year. I always wanted to work in the Portsmouth Naval Base, as it is now called, originally called H. M. Dockyard, but entry had to be gained by passing the Dockyard Exam. This was held at the old Apprentice Training Centre at Flathouse, Mile End in Portsmouth. This has long passed into the history books, along with the old Mile End Cemetery, Bailey & Whites large timber store - all now under the new Continental ferry port.

  • Portsmouth Dockyard in the Twentieth Century1
    PART THREE PORTSMOUTH DOCKYARD IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY1 3.1 INTRODUCTION The twentieth century topography of Portsmouth Dockyard can be related first to the geology and geography of Portsea Island and secondly to the technological development of warships and their need for appropriately sized and furnished docks and basins. In 2013, Portsmouth Naval Base covered 300 acres of land, with 62 acres of basin, 17 dry docks and locks, 900 buildings and 3 miles of waterfront (Bannister, 10 June 2013a). The Portsmouth Naval Base Property Trust (Heritage Area) footprint is 11.25 acres (4.56 hectares) which equates to 4.23% of the land area of the Naval Base or 3.5% of the total Naval Base footprint including the Basins (Duncan, 2013). From 8 or 9 acres in 1520–40 (Oppenheim, 1988, pp. 88-9), the dockyard was increased to 10 acres in 1658, to 95 acres in 1790, and gained 20 acres in 1843 for the steam basin and 180 acres by 1865 for the 1867 extension (Colson, 1881, p. 118). Surveyor Sir Baldwin Wake Walker warned the Admiralty in 1855 and again in 1858 that the harbour mouth needed dredging, as those [ships] of the largest Class could not in the present state of its Channel go out of Harbour, even in the event of a Blockade, in a condition to meet the Enemy, inasmuch as the insufficiency of Water renders it impossible for them to go out of Harbour with all their Guns, Coals, Ammunition and Stores on board. He noted further in 1858 that the harbour itself “is so blocked up by mud that there is barely sufficient space to moor the comparatively small Force at present there,” urging annual dredging to allow the larger current ships to moor there.

  • History of the Royal Marines 1837-1914 HE Blumberg
    History of the Royal Marines 1837-1914 HE Blumberg (Minor editing by Alastair Donald) In preparing this Record I have consulted, wherever possible, the original reports, Battalion War and other Diaries, accounts in Globe and Laurel, etc. The War Office Official Accounts, where extant, the London Gazettes, and Orders in Council have been taken as the basis of events recounted, and I have made free use of the standard histories, eg History of the British Army (Fortescue), History of the Navy (Laird Clowes), Britain's Sea Soldiers (Field), etc. Also the Lives of Admirals and Generals bearing on the campaigns. The authorities consulted have been quoted for each campaign, in order that those desirous of making a fuller study can do so. I have made no pretence of writing a history or making comments, but I have tried to place on record all facts which can show the development of the Corps through the Nineteenth and early part of the Twentieth Centuries. H E BLUMBERG Devonport January, 1934 1 P A R T I 1837 – 1839 The Long Peace On 20 June, 1837, Her Majesty Queen Victoria ascended the Throne and commenced the long reign which was to bring such glory and honour to England, but the year found the fortunes of the Corps at a very low ebb. The numbers voted were 9007, but the RM Artillery had officially ceased to exist - a School of Laboratory and nominally two companies quartered at Fort Cumberland as part of the Portsmouth Division only being maintained. The Portsmouth Division were still in the old inadequate Clarence Barracks in the High Street; Plymouth and Chatham were in their present barracks, which had not then been enlarged to their present size, and Woolwich were in the western part of the Royal Artillery Barracks.

The task has been one of research, compilation, and abridgment, of a pleasant nature, undertaken during leisure evenings, after official hours spent in duties and undertakings of a kindred description. Numerous authorities have been consulted, and in some important instances, freely borrowed from ; amongst which, may be mentioned, former numbers of the Nautical Magazine, the Journals of the Royal Geographical Society, published accounts of voyages, personal memoirs, hydrographic works, the Naval Chronicle, Marshall, and O'Bymes Naval Biographies, &c. The object aimed at has been, to produce in a condensed form, a work, useful for hydrographic reference, and sufficiently matter of fact, for any amongst the naval surveyors of the past, who may care to take it up, for reference—and at the same time,—to handle dry dates and figures, in such a way, as to render such matter, sufficiently light and entertaining, for the present and rising generation of naval officers, who, possessing a taste for similar labours to those enumerated, may elect a hydrographic career.

THE preparation of the following Work was sug­ gested by my brother, Lieutenant William Grant Prendergast, of the 8th Bengal Cavalry*, Persian Interpreter on the Staff of Lord Gough, Commander­ in-chief in India ; and from the same quarter much valuable assistance was originally derived, both as to the selection of topics, and the mode of treating them.

This catalogue includes a wide range of British and European drawings and watercolours, placed more or less in chronological order, ranging in date from the 16th century to the first half of the 20th century. Although the areas of Old Master drawings, early British drawings and watercolours, and 19th and 20th Century drawings have long been regarded as disparate fields, each with their own enthusiasts, part of the purpose of this annual catalogue is to blur the distinction between these collecting areas. The works we have selected for this catalogue will show that a fine drawing or watercolour – whoever the artist and whatever the date - is always worthy of note.
