  • Prices Street Consultation Summary
    APPENDIX 4 PRICES STREET CONSULTATION SUMMARY The council is working with Better Bankside, the Kirkaldy Testing Museum and the developers of the Bankside Hilton to improve the environment in Prices Street following the completion of the construction of the new hotel. Consultation was carried out from 23 October to 28 November 2014, with proposals to landscape the highway and install planters, street trees, seating, and a special entrance treatment incorporating artwork for the grade II* listed Kirkaldy Testing Works. This note summarises the reasons for investing in the project, the method of consultation, a detailed response to comments made, and next steps for the project. Why invest in improvements at Prices Street? The proposal to make further improvements to Prices Street has arisen from several key opportunities: 1. The need to create new and improved open spaces to provide for the large numbers of new residents and workers moving into the area. By upgrading the public realm we are better able to provide for our communities and meet their expectations. Open space improvements will include street trees and planting will help contribute to improved air quality, sustainable urban drainage, and a high quality amenity and social space for the enjoyment of local residents, workers and visitors. The council has carried out extensive consultation on a programme of public realm improvement works across Bankside called the “Bankside Urban Forest”. One of the key project proposals to come out of the consultation process was to make further improvements to Great Suffolk Street as a key spine which links Bankside and the Elephant and Castle.

By 1700 the occupational structure indicates exceptional industrialisation. The study examines developments as additional products were introduced, each with distinct origins and technology, and industry transferred from cottages to factories.

  • THE SKYDMORES/ SCUDAMORES of ROWLESTONE, HEREFORDSHIRE, Including Their Descendants at KENTCHURCH, LLANCILLO, MAGOR & EWYAS HAROLD
    Rowlestone and Kentchurch Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study THE SKYDMORES/ SCUDAMORES OF ROWLESTONE, HEREFORDSHIRE, including their descendants at KENTCHURCH, LLANCILLO, MAGOR & EWYAS HAROLD. edited by Linda Moffatt 2016© from the original work of Warren Skidmore CITATION Please respect the author's contribution and state where you found this information if you quote it. Suggested citation The Skydmores/ Scudamores of Rowlestone, Herefordshire, including their Descendants at Kentchurch, Llancillo, Magor & Ewyas Harold, ed. Linda Moffatt 2016, at the website of the Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com'. DATES • Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS Databases of all known Skidmore and Scudamore bmds can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com PROBATE A list of all known Skidmore and Scudamore wills - many with full transcription or an abstract of its contents - can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com in the file Skidmore/Scudamore One-Name Study Probate.

  • Noteworthy Descendants of the Clan Grant
    Noteworthy Descendants of the Clan Grant Academia Isabel Frances Grant, MBE, LLD, was an author, historian, antiquarian, and founder of the Highland Folk Museum. Born in Edinburgh and educated in London, Dr. Grant was a descendant of the ancient family of Tullochgorm and the granddaughter of Field Marshal Sir Patrick Grant, GCB, GCMG. Dr. Grant wrote her first book, Everyday Life of an Old Highland Farm, in 1924. While traveling in Europe, she was influenced by the open air museum movement of the early 20th century. She started collecting items of Highland material culture and founded the Highland Folk Museum, called Am Fasgadh (The Shelter), firstly on the island of Iona, and later at Kingussie in Badenoch in 1944. Today, the museum is situated in Newtonmore. In recognition for her pioneering efforts, Miss Grant was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Laws from the University of Edinburgh in 1948 and elevated to the rank of MBE in 1959. Dr. Grant wrote a number of books during her long life, including The Lordship of the Isles (1935), Highland Folk Ways (1961), and Periods in Highland History (1987, published posthumously with Hugh Cheape, PhD). Dr. I.F. Grant died in 1983 at the age of 96. Robert Edmond Grant, MD, FRCPE, FRS (1793-1874) established the Grant Museum of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy at University College, London, in 1828. He was born in Edinburgh and studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh. Dr. Grant was the first professor of zoology and comparative anatomy in England and personally donated many of the specimens, dissection materials, diagrams and lecture notes that comprise the collections of the museum today.
