Guildhall Redevelopment Programme Preliminary Heritage Advice Note Prepared for the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames April 2021 Page 1 of 21 1936/40/JWi 16 April 2021 Guildhall Redevelopment Programme Preliminary Heritage Advice Note 1.0 Summary This is a rapid initial assessment of the potential heritage risks and opportunities of the Guildhall Redevelopment Programme. Its findings are subject to more detailed analysis at the next stages of the project. The assessment finds that there are considerable opportunities to enhance the historic environment of Kingston Town Centre, for example in the public realm and setting of Kingston Guildhall, the Hogsmill River and Coronation Stone, and in the relationship of a leisure centre and other development on the Kingfisher site to the Public Library and Museum and adjoining streets. The options in the Feasibility Stage Report: Guildhall Masterplan (EPR Architects, February 2018) and the Kingfisher Leisure Centre: Concept Design Report (Faulkner Browns Architects, April 2021) also contain elements of risk. Some of these, such as alterations to the interior of the Guildhall and possible rooftop development, are medium risks that can be addressed through design development. The impact of taller buildings – over c. 12 stories – may carry a higher risk because of the potential for impact on views from Hampton Court Palace, Richmond Park and Bushy Park, sites of exceptional heritage significance to which Historic England has afforded considerable importance in discussions over similar schemes in Kingston Town Centre. Further design development and engagement with Historic England and others will be necessary to better understand the degree of risk in this case and implement mitigation measures accordingly. 2.0 Introduction Alan Baxter has been appointed by the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames (RBKuT) to undertake a heritage Feasibility Study to inform the Guildhall Redevelopment Programme (GhRP) business case. The GhRP envisages a comprehensive redevelopment of three Council- owned sites within Kingston upon Thames, namely: • The Guildhall Campus, comprising a series of civic buildings and public spaces including the Grade II listed Kingston Guildhall and Grade I listed Coronation Stone, to the south of the town centre; • The Kingfisher Leisure Centre site, comprising a 1980s leisure centre, Kingston Public Library and Museum (both Grade II listed), and an adjoining public open space, to the east of the town centre; • The Cattle Market Car Park site, comprising a surface-level car park with two basement levels, lying immediately north of the Kingfisher Leisure Centre site. This Preliminary Heritage Advice Note has been rapidly prepared to inform early-stage discussions regarding the options for the future redevelopment of the Guildhall Campus and Kingfisher Leisure Centre/Cattle Market Car Park sites. It provides a summary of the heritage assets (both designated and non-designated) which could potentially experience impacts on significance as a result of development of these sites, and summarises the key design considerations and project heritage risks and opportunities. Page 2 of 21 Guildhall Redevelopment Programme – Preliminary Heritage Advice Note The note is informed by an initial desk-based review of the existing site conditions and outline options for the sites set out in the Feasibility Stage Report: Guildhall Masterplan (EPR Architects, February 2018) and the Kingfisher Leisure Centre: Concept Design Report (Faulkner Brown Architects, April 2021). Because of Covid restrictions and programme constraints, no site visit has been undertaken and the advice given is subject to this caveat. The heritage assets discussed in this Note have been identified following an initial review of the strategic context of each development site. It is possible that further heritage assets that might be affected by the proposed development will be identified in the detailed assessment of the baseline heritage context that will inform future stages of the GhRP. Page 3 of 21 Guildhall Redevelopment Programme – Preliminary Heritage Advice Note 3.0 Guildhall Campus 3.1 Introduction The Guildhall Campus lies in the southern part of the town centre of Kingston upon Thames, and contains a series of buildings and public realm bound by the High Street to the west, Bath Passage to the north, St James’ Road to the east and Kingston Hall Road (A307) to the south. The Hogsmill River, a tributary of the River Thames, passes through the site, running on a dog- leg path from its north-west corner and curving to the south-east. Within the site there are a series of public buildings and structures, including the Grade II listed Kingston Guildhall (built in 1935), two further Council office buildings known as Guildhall 1 and Guildhall 2 (built in 1975-78), and the Grade I listed Coronation Stone (of Medieval origin, bounded by railings and piers of 1850). The greater part of the site (excluding Guildhall 1 and 2) lies within the Kingston Old Town Conservation Area. 3.2 Heritage context The table below outlines heritage assets that may experience a degree of change to their significance and/or setting through the redevelopment of the Guildhall Campus.

In addition, there are many designated and non-designated heritage assets within the immediate vicinity of the site, particularly to the north and west, within the historic core of Kingston. The redevelopment of the Guildhall Campus should therefore place great weight on positively responding to the rich historic built environment within and around the site. The Guildhall Campus is an opportunity for heritage-led regeneration in the heart of Kingston, with opportunities to enhance the significance and setting of some of Kingston’s most prominent heritage assets as part of a wider programme of townscape improvements. Nevertheless, redevelopment within a sensitive heritage context always carries a degree of planning risk, due to the potential for harmful impacts upon the significance and setting of heritage assets both nearby and further afield (such as Hampton Court Palace). The following sub-sections outline the key heritage opportunities and risks associated with the redevelopment of the Guildhall Campus. The current proposals for the redevelopment of the Guildhall Campus are understood to break down into two interrelated aspects: • the conversion of the Grade II

  • Eadweard Muybridge 1 Eadweard Muybridge
    Eadweard Muybridge 1 Eadweard Muybridge Eadweard Muybridge Born Edward James Muggeridge9 April 1830Kingston upon Thames, England Died 8 May 1904 (aged 74)Kingston upon Thames, England Resting place Woking, Surrey, England Nationality [1] British Ethnicity English Occupation Photographer Eadweard J. Muybridge ( /ˌɛdwərdˈmaɪbrɪdʒ/; 9 April 1830 – 8 May 1904) was an English photographer who spent much of his life in the United States. He is known for his pioneering work on animal locomotion which used multiple cameras to capture motion, and his zoopraxiscope, a device for projecting motion pictures that pre-dated the flexible perforated film strip.[2] Names Born Edward James Muggeridge, he changed his name several times early in his US career. First he changed his forenames to the Spanish equivalent Eduardo Santiago, perhaps because of the Spanish influence on Californian place names. His surname appears at times as Muggridge and Muygridge (possibly due to misspellings), and Muybridge from the 1860s. In the 1870s he changed his first name again to Eadweard, to match the spelling of King Edward shown on the plinth of the Kingston coronation stone, which was re-erected in Kingston in 1850. His name remained Eadweard Muybridge for the rest of his career.[3] However, his gravestone bears a further variant, Eadweard Maybridge. He used the pseudonym Helios (Greek god of the sun) on many of his photographs, and also as the name of his studio and his son's middle name.[4] Eadweard Muybridge 2 Early life and career He was born at Kingston-on-Thames, England on April 9, 1830. He emigrated to the US, arriving in San Francisco in 1855, where he started a career as a publisher's agent and bookseller.

  • History Policy
    History Policy NB: Throughout this document Latchmere Academy Trust may be abbreviated to “LAT” Reasons for studying History “If you would understand anything, observe its beginning and its development.” Aristotle “Whoever wishes to foresee the future must consult the past; for human events ever resemble those of preceding times. This arises from the fact that they are produced by men and women who ever have been, and ever shall be, animated by the same passions, and thus they necessarily have the same results.” Machiavelli In teaching history, we encourage pupils to understand more about themselves as individuals and as members of society. They learn to find evidence, weigh it up and reach their own conclusions. Our children enjoy a hands-on approach to history, using a range of artefacts and other information sources to investigate the past. Our focus for enquiry spans from investigating our own lives and past in the Foundation Stage to World War II in Year Six. In all our historical studies, we aim to bring to life characters from the past in order to motivate pupils and stimulate their imagination. Aims Our principal aim in the study of history is to stimulate pupils’ curiosity and interest in both the past and the present and to explore the relationship between them. We aim to help pupils to: . Build up an understanding of themselves and their place in society . Develop an interest in the past and an appreciation of human achievements and aspirations . Develop knowledge of chronology so they can organise their understanding of the past . Understand the values of their society and others .

  • Kingston Upon Thames Revisited July 2018
    © Robert J S Briggs 2018 – http://surreymedieval.wordpress.com – email [email protected] KINGSTON UPON THAMES REVISITED: FURTHER THOUGHTS ON ITS ORIGINS AND EARLY MEDIEVAL DEVELOPMENT Rob Briggs The June 2017 Medieval Studies Forum visit to Kingston upon Thames allowed those present to focus on one of the most important places in medieval Surrey. If anything, its importance was greater in the period before the Norman Conquest than after, given its sta- tus as the coronation site for at least two tenth-century kings and the named promulgation place of half a dozen known charters. The visit was also timely as 2017 saw the publica- tion of perhaps the most in-depth examination of the origin of the place-name, and by ex- tension of the early medieval settlement that first bore it. Jill Bourne’s book, The Place- name Kingston and Royal Power in Middle Anglo-Saxon England, brings to a conclusion a lengthy period of research that has previously generated a journal article (Bourne 1987-88) and a book chapter (Bourne 2012), in addition to the 2011 Nottingham PhD the- sis of which the new monograph is an updated version. In between these publications, other name-studies scholars proffered useful new contributions to the debate (Hough 1997; Probert 2008). That Bourne has been able to develop a thesis subsection into a whole book chapter dedi- cated to contemplating why Kingston upon Thames is such an anomaly among English place-names of the “Kingston”-type says something about the volume and complexity of the available evidence. Nevertheless, there are aspects of her argument that do not con- vince, and the purpose of this essay is to evaluate these and, by adding some new per- spectives into the debate, advance a new reading of the knotty body of evidence for Anglo- Saxon Kingston.

  • Statement of Consultation Application for the Designation of North
    Statement of Consultation Application for the Designation of North Kingston as a Neighbourhood Area March 2017 Introduction This Consultation Statement sets out the approach and results of consultation undertaken by the Royal Borough of Kingston on the application to have an Area of North Kingston designated as a Neighbourhood Area. The first step required to secure neighbourhood planning powers is for the local planning authority designate a Neighbourhood Area. Neighbourhood planning regulations requires that only a group that can demonstrate that it is capable of becoming a Neighbourhood Forum can submit an application, i.e. that it representative of the area and has a constitution. On 19th August 2016, a local community group of North Kingston residents called North Kingston Forum submitted an application to have an area of North Kingston designated as a Neighbourhood Area. This report summarises and sets out the feedback received during the consultation process. 1 Consultation Process The North Kingston Neighbourhood Area application was published for consultation from 2nd December 2016 to 30th January 2017, for a period of seven weeks. During this time the submitted documents were available to download from the council's website. All those on the Strategic Planning database, which includes more than 2,000 consultees, were informed of the consultation by letter (see Appendix 1 for a copy of the letter). The following categories of consultee were consulted (a complete list of consultees can be found in Appendix 2 of this report): ● Statutory consultees ● Business community ● Community support groups ● Disability groups ● Education organisations ● Environment groups ● Ethnic groups ● Health organisations ● Heritage protection groups ● Local residents and interested parties ● Infrastructure providers ● Leisure groups ● Older people groups ● Planning Interest groups, e.g.
