Hyde House | Holland House Hyde House | Holland House Hyde House | Holland House Hyde House | Holland House The opportunity to create grand new homes in London’s most refined Royal Borough is very rare. The houses at 51 Campden Hill Road were designed not just to sit comfortably within the Phillimore Estate, but also to enrich it. Standing apart from the others on the estate, both in appearance and function, Holland House and Hyde House have been built to meet the demands of modern living. There is space, light and flexibility; rooms that blend into one another seamlessly, allowing families to live as just that – families. Michaelis Boyd, the architectural firm behind the houses, has an unrivalled reputation for excellence. They have worked on many prestigious commissions including the residential element at the Battersea Power Station. Collaborating with the interior designers at Honor Riley Design on both concept and interior architecture, materials have been sourced that are sympathetic to the history of the Phillimore Estate, whilst lifting it into the 21st century. Through careful choice – and juxtaposition – of materials, two houses have been created that will look as good in a decade as they do today. Here, the ultra-modern fuses with the traditional; cutting-edge, user-friendly music and lighting systems sit alongside oak floors, brass sanitary fittings, Moroccan tiles in the guest and children’s bathrooms, and exquisitely book-matched marble in the master bathroom. The kitchen is a timeless design by Bulthaup. Meanwhile, the ground source heat pumps – which provide warmth in the winter and cooling in the summer, at almost no cost to the owner or the environment – highlight a strong commitment to neutralising the houses’ carbon footprint. Quite simply, these are remarkable houses that offer a unique living experience. Hyde House | Holland House Delicately framed by the wide, leafy streets of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, the Phillimore Estate occupies one of the most elegant and desirable locations in the capital – a place that is known for the beauty of its centuries-old parks as much as the refinement of its exquisite collection of luxury boutiques. Myriad gastronomic and cultural delights, such as The Belvedere, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Royal Albert Hall, envelope the estate, which belongs at the very centre of a jewel-like village unlike anywhere else in London. 1894, map of Kensington and the Philimore Estate • location of 51 Campden Hill Road Early morning horse riders in Hyde Park Autumn foliage in Holland Park Hyde House | Holland House Photograph by Christopher Pledger HOXTON SHEPHERDESS WALK KING’S CROSS ST PANCRAS ANGEL INTERNATIONAL HOXTON Hyde House | Holland House KENSAL GREEN HOXTON SQUARE LORD’S CRICKET GROUND MAIDA VALE BRITISH LIBRARY SCHOOL OF ORIENTAL WEST KILBURN & AFRICAN STUDIES SADLER’S WELLS WHITE CUBE THEATRE GALLERY CITY UNIVERSITY VICTORIA MIRO REGENT’S PARK KING’S CROSS GALLERY FINSBURY FITZROVIA EXMOUTH MARKET OLD SHOREDITCH UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON STREET UNIVERSITY OF LONDON FARRINGDON GREAT PORTLAND STREET CROSSRAIL SHOREDITCH HIGH ST MAIDA HILL WARWICK AVENUE REGENT’S PARK BAKER STREET BLOOMSBURY CLERKENWELL WESTBOURNE PARK LONDON MARYLEBONE ST LUKE’S BRITISH MUSEUM CASS BUSINESS SCHOOL EDGWARE ROAD EDGWARE ROAD LIVERPOOL STREET PADDINGTON UNIVERSITY OF CROSSRAIL SPITALFIELDS CROSSRAIL WESTMINSTER HOLBORN THE BARBICAN CENTRE MARKET ROYAL OAK PADDINGTON MARYLEBONE TOTTENHAM COURT RD LADBROKE GROVE CROSSRAIL THE TABERNACLE OXFORD STREET LOCANDA LOCATELLI LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS THE LEDBURY OXFORD CIRCUS THE ELECTRIC BOND STREET CROSSRAIL OTTOLENGHI WHITELEYS SOHO KING’S COLLEGE LONDON THEATRE PORTOBELLO ROAD MARBLE ARCH CARNABY STREET CITY OF LONDON MARKET NEW BOND STREET GAUTHIER DISTRICT LATIMER RD ST PAUL’S CATHEDRAL BAYSWATER WHITE CITY REGENT STREET LANCASTER GATE LE GAVROCHE SOMERSET HOUSE MAYFAIR CHINA TOWN 30 ST MARY AXE QUEENSWAY OXO TOWER TOWER OF MILLENNIUM LONDON BRIDGE WOOD LANE HÉLÈNE DARROZE ROYAL ACADEMY OF ARTS ANK AT THE CONNAUGHT H B NOTTING HILL NATIONAL UT GATE PICCADILLY GALLERY SO KENSINGTON BURLINGTON ARCADE THE CHURCHILL GARDENS NATIONAL THEATRE ARMS NOBU BERKELEY ST HOLLAND PARK FORTNUM & MASON WESTFIELD CAMPDEN HILL LAWN KENSINGTON TENNIS CLUB LONDON BRIDGE TOWER PALACE GREEN PARK HAYWARD GALLERY TATE MODERN BRIDGE HYDE PARK QUEEN ELIZABETH HALL SHEPHERD’S BUSH HOLLAND PARK THE TERRACE ON SHAKESPEARE’S SCHOOL HOLLAND STREET GLOBE THEATRE SERPENTINE GALLERY ST JAMES’S BFI IMAX HOLLAND PARK LAWN THE ORANGERY PARK TENNIS CLUB PALACE GREEN GREEN PARK ROYAL BOROUGH CITY HALL FESTIVAL SHEPERD’S BUSH KYOTO GARDEN HALL THE SHARD LONDON EYE WATERLOO GOLDHAWK BOROUGH MARKET HOLLAND PARK KENSINGTON CENTRAL ROAD HYDE PARK FILM MUSEUM WHITE CUBE GALLERY THE BELVEDERE LIBRARY CORNER WESTMINSTER ROYAL ALBERT HALL BUCKINGHAM BOROUGH KNIGHTSBRIDGE PALACE HIGH STREET ROYAL COLLEGE OF ART HESTON HOUSES OF SOUTHWARK KENSINGTON BLUMENTHAL PARLIAMENT THE BROMPTON DESIGN MUSEUM* ORATORY PETRUS WESTMINSTER SCIENCE HARRODS MUSEUM WHITS IMPERIAL COLLLEGE LAMBETH NORTH KENSINGTON (OLYMPIA) KITCHEN W8 BELGRAVIA NATURAL SOUTH BANK UNIVERSITY KENSINGTON HISTORY V&A MUSEUM MUSEUM VICTORIA IMPERIAL GLOUCESTER ROAD ANDIPA GALLERY WAR MUSEUM SOUTH KENSINGTON ELEPHANT & CASTLE HAMMERSMITH KNIGHTSBRIDGE TATE BRITAIN DAMIEN HIRST GALLERY HAMMERSMITH EARL’S COURT SLOANE SQUARE CHELSEA COLLEGE OF ART & DESIGN WEST KENSINGTON KENSINGTON SAATCHI GALLERY BARONS COURT WEST EARL’S COURT ABBOTS MANOR KENSINGTON EXHIBITION CENTRE PIMLICO RANELAGH GARDENS WEST BROMPTON KENNINGTON PIMLICO BLUEBIRD VAUXHALL CHELSEA GORDON RAMSAY LEGEND LA FAMIGLIA THE OVAL Restaurants MARCO PIERRE WHITE KINGS KENNINGTON PARK ROAD STEAKHOUSE & GRILL Galleries and arts HARWOOD ARMS Museum BATTERSEA POWER STATION Shopping FULHAM BROADWAY BATTERSEA PARK School and university Theatre Parks PARSONS GREEN Rail stations IMPERIAL WHARF Tube stations Map for illustration purpose only.

I do not allege any significance in the relation of the two buildings; and I indignantly deny that the church was chosen because it needed the whole water- power of West London to turn me into a Christian. Nevertheless, the great Waterworks Tower was destined to play its part in my life, as I shall narrate on a subsequent page; but that story is connected with my own experiences, whereas my birth (as I have said) is an incident which I accept, like some poor ignorant peasant, only because it has been handed down to me by oral tradition.

Architectural transformations on the Market Square in Krakow A systematic visual catalogue Jean-Yves BLAISE Iwona DUDEK Different faces of one ‘idea’ Section three, presents a selection of analogous examples (European public use and commercial buildings) so as to help the reader weigh to which extent the layout of Krakow’s marketplace, as well as its architectures, can be related to other sites. Market Square in Krakow is paradoxically at the same time a typical example of medieval marketplace and a unique site. But the frontline between what is common and what is unique can be seen as “somewhat fuzzy”. Among these examples readers should observe a number of unexpected similarities, as well as sharp contrasts in terms of form, usage and layout of buildings.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY General Fund Revenue Position 1.1. The overall position on services is a small overspend of £143,000 (including Grenfell). In addition, there is an underspend of £10.4m on corporate items, of which £3.8m is due to the full implementation of the Treasury Management Strategy and increased investment income which has been reported for most of the year. This is a one-off underspend and budgets have been adjusted for 2020/21. The remainder relates to the corporate contingency and the provision set aside for the pension fund liability which has not been required during the year. Further details are set out in paragraph 5.2. 1.2. After the proposed transfer of the £11.3m to earmarked reserves, the Council will maintain its General Fund working balance at £10m. This £10m is in line with what is agreed in the Council’s Medium-Term Financial Strategy and reserves policy. General Fund Capital Programme 1.3. The total original General Fund Capital Programme budget in 2019/20, including budget carried forward from the 2018/19 was £163.066m. During the first three quarters of the year, there was a total variance of £91.249m giving a current budget of £71.817m.

Take it all in beneath the exposed ceiling beams or by the roaring fire. And The French House only serves its beer in halves. This Covent Garden legend occupies the backstreets away from the tourists. Its courtyard setting is probably how it attracted such a rough-around-the-edges crowd in the nineteenth century, when it hosted bare-knuckle prize fights. Earlier, back inpoet John Dryden took a beating by thugs hired by poet John Wilmot down this back alley. Smugglers, sailors and dubious sorts were said to frequent the pub although, all that remains from those swashbuckling days is the flagstone floor. One of the oldest pubs in London is also one of the most charming, perched on a hilltop by Hampstead Heath.

  • 1 CARLTON WARE NEWSLETTER #46 from Ian Harwood & Jerome
    CARLTON WARE NEWSLETTER #46 From Ian Harwood & Jerome Wilson August 2009 As mentioned in our last Newsletter, we have been compiling a recap of our trip to the U.K. last winter. We flew from Calgary to London on Christmas evening, arriving there on Boxing Day 2008. Over the next 3½ months we put over 8,000 miles on our rental car, travelling to numerous antique shops, markets, fairs and charity shops, as well as visiting several Carlton Ware collectors and seeing their collections. This Newsletter will detail most of that and we will give you our opinion of the various places we shopped at, hopefully informing you of the best places to find Carlton Ware. We will also mention some of the good pubs, etc. that we stopped at for lunch! We stayed with my sister, Lynda, in Maidenbower, a suburb of Crawley, West Sussex. We were only minutes from junction 10A on the M23 and three junctions away from the M25, which enabled us to reach most of our destinations pretty fast. There are a couple of things you need for a successful day out antiquing in the U.K. – a satellite navigation system in your car and a copy of The Antique Trade Calendar. This is a quarterly publication of Britain’s guide to antique fairs, markets and centres and costs only £1.50; extremely good value. This publication is available at many antique events and centres or can be bought by subscription. If you are visiting the U.K. and want a copy before you go, let us know and we will give you the subscription information.
