ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 1 2008 / 09 Achievements of 2008/09 2008 / 09 AIM 1: Help people develop their understanding of the 2 historic environment Understanding the historic environment is essential to prioritising and managing its conservation and maximising the cultural, social and economic benefits this brings. English Heritage has a vital role in developing such understanding, both through its own work and through supporting others. English Heritage’s research support takes many forms but it is all guided by a Research Strategy in line with our overarching objectives for the historic environment. Our Historic Environment Enabling Programme awarded 258 project grants this year totalling £5.7 million. Examples included Durham and Northumberland Rock Art which trained volunteers to record prehistoric rock art using cutting-edge photographic techniques and a national programme of Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Surveys, building a detailed picture of historic buildings, sites and landscapes along the English coast to help plan for the impacts of climate change. Overall 101 research reports have been produced this year on subjects such as the heritage of ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS & REPORT ANNUAL ENGLISH HERITAGE the Lea Valley prior to the area’s transformation for hosting the 2012 Olympics and on work at English Heritage’s properties in support of conservation, development and display initiatives, for example, at Carisbrooke, Kenilworth and Dover Castles and at Richborough Roman Fort and Amphitheatre and Chiswick House. An important outlet for our research is the Informed Conservation series in which new information and analysis of significant historic areas facing major challenges is brought to a wide audience. In 2008 we published the Liverpool Informed Conservation series, six books on topics characterising the city which formed part of English Heritage’s contribution to the Capital of Culture. We also worked with Liverpool Football Club to produce the Anfield Breckfield book which recorded local sporting history and reached completely new audiences. We also continued the Survey of London series, publishing two volumes on Clerkenwell in April 2008. As part of our role to inform and raise standards in the historic environment sector, English Heritage publishes a wide range of guidelines and guidance notes. This year these included Luminescence Dating: Guidelines on using luminescence dating in archaeology and Investigative Conservation which explains how the detailed examination of artefacts from archaeological sites can shed light on their manufacture and use. Three editions of Research News were also published, each concentrating on a theme and presenting highlights of our research and its applications. Developing understanding is also at the heart of the many training programmes English Heritage supports. In October 2008 we launched the new Historic Environment Traineeship Scheme, a two year programme to develop the next generation of historic environment managers who will be well placed to meet the challenges presented within a local authority or one of the many other agencies and organisations managing the historic environment. Our Professional Placements in Conservation programme also continued, and in total 1,266 people attended English Heritage professional training events this year. Achievements of 2008/09 2008 / 09

In March English Heritage was a signatory to a Memorandum of Understanding to extend craft skills training and improve standards on conservation projects around the country. Launched under the auspices of the Arts and Heritage All Party Parliamentary Group and in collaboration with the construction industry, it was also signed by the National Heritage Training Group and ConstructionSkills. English Heritage’s online resources continue to expand and be utilised by a growing range of people. The National Monuments Record (NMR) purchased at auction a unique photographic record of the work of the London Metropolitan Board of Works, including the Crossness Pumping Station and Bazalgette’s drainage infrastructure along the Embankment. We now have 1.4 million records online, including approximately 400,000 images and in 2008/09 2.5 million unique user sessions were recorded.

The Heritage Gateway (heritage.gateway.org.uk) also provides an important point of access to ACCOUNTS & REPORT ANNUAL ENGLISH HERITAGE English Heritage data and now, for the first time, statutory listed buildings data can be searched online. All statutory data is to be made available online during 2010. As at 31 March, 20% of Local Authority Historic Environment Records were available via the Heritage Gateway, with a target of 50% by 2010. Alongside research, standard setting, training and making our data available, English Heritage also offers a wide range of learning opportunities for children and adults. In 2008/09 English Heritage hosted 445,320 free educational visits at its sites. Discovery Visits, interactive tours and workshops designed to tie in with a range of subjects and themes in the national curriculum, continue to grow in popularity. The programme attracted 39,300 participants this year. Our education volunteers programme is now in place at ten sites across the country and the team of over 70 volunteers lead or assist with many of the Discovery Visits. In total the Education Volunteers recorded over 3,000 hours of voluntary work. In January the Engaging Places project was launched at the British Education and Training Technology conference, the world’s largest educational technology event. Led jointly by English Heritage and the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment (CABE) with support from DCMS, Engaging Places is an online resource for teachers using the built environment to teach a range of subjects and skills. The education section of the English Heritage website has been refreshed and navigation made easier as stage one of a two stage project to improve accessibility to information about education programmes and supporting resources. The high standard of our educational work was recognised in 2008 when Osborne House, Goodrich Castle, Bolsover Castle, Wroxeter Roman City, Kenwood House and Estate, Farleigh Hungerford Castle and Birdoswald Roman Fort all won Sandford Awards for quality and excellence in educational services and facilities. 4 ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2008 / 09 seventh edition of our annual survey of the state of the historic environment, ofthestatehistoric seventh editionofourannual Counts survey Heritage One ofthemostpressing issuesofourtimeisclimatechange.

5 2008, launched in October. Heritage Counts 2008 made the case that the re-use and recycling of older buildings is in itself sustainable and that energy efficiency can be improved without destroying their distinctive character and value. In July 2008 we launched Climate Change and Your H ome (english-heritage.org.uk/climatechangeandyourhome), an interactive website which gives practical advice on how to adapt traditional houses without compromising their historic character. The website has already received 25,000 visitors. We have also developed a productive relationship with the new Mayor of London and the Greater London Authority on sustainability and climate change, and are collaborating on the Mayor’s Empty Homes Initiative using our Heritage At Risk Register. Following the DCMS led review into how culture is supported and promoted in the regions, English Heritage, Sport England, Museums, Libraries and Archives Council and the Arts Council have developed regional action plans which set out how they will work together on joint priorities. Each regional group will coordinate working under four priority areas around ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS & REPORT ANNUAL ENGLISH HERITAGE improving relationships and developing services with local authorities, place shaping, and 2012 and the Cultural Olympiad. We published Local Area Agreements and the Historic Environment in May 2008 which encourages communities to capitalise on their distinctive local heritage. In Northumberland, English Heritage worked alongside the Northumberland Strategic Partnership to include heritage at risk as a target in its Local Area Agreement, a step which will help to promote the issue to local partners. English Heritage is a member of the Yorkshire and Humber Historic Environment Forum which published the Regional Historic Environment Strategy this year. It provides a framework for the management of the historic environment and a basis to guide regional policy and decision-making. English Heritage jointly funded the Heritage Tourism Initiative with the North West Development Agency this year to strengthen links between the historic environment and tourism sectors. Run with the Historic Houses Association and the National Trust, the Heritage Tourism Initiative is regarded by the Secretary of State as an exemplar project for getting the historic environment on other people’s agenda. We organised four sub-regional historic environment summits on behalf of the East Midlands Heritage Forum this year to build understanding of, and support for, heritage protection reform. Over 200 people took part, from local authority leaders to civic societies and parish councils. Feedback showed that delegates valued the district based workshops in particular as they enabled local partners to work together on the practicalities of managing and investing in specific historic places. One of the ways we can tell if we are being successful in influencing others is the degree of financial support we secure from third parties and in 2008/09 we successfully completed the fundraising needed for the project we are participating in with the London Borough of Hounslow and the Chiswick House and Gardens Trust, for the restoration of Chiswick House Gardens. Income from legacies and donations was £777,000 and corporate partnerships were renewed with Ecclesiastical Insurance and Wells Bombardier, bringing much needed income to support the Heritage at Risk campaign and our events programme. 6 ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2008 / 09 Development Agency andLiverpool Planning ofaSupplementary Vision inthepreparation cores ofthesecities.historic CityCouncil, alsoassistedLiverpool EnglishHeritage North West projectsinthe majorregeneration tohelpinform andwithChester andCarlisle properties buildings whichwillaidthefuturemanagementof City Councilonitsregisterofhistoric intheareaofplanningadvice.

Document to guide future development in the World Heritage Site. We advised on a very significant development in Bath and offered this advice to the UNESCO World Heritage Committee mission to the city. In turn this process played a part in the development of appropriate policies for urban World Heritage Sites everywhere. The Urban Panel, which brings together the expertise of CABE and English Heritage, also continues to share advice and expertise on strategies and developments bringing significant change to towns and cities. We are working with Newcastle City Council to pilot a Heritage Partnership Agreement for the future management of the Grade II* listed Byker Estate in Newcastle. The potential offered by the pilot has formed an important part of a bid for Private Finance Initiative funding for refurbishment of the whole estate. English Heritage’s commitment to responding swiftly and helpfully to requests for advice is reflected in our performance figures. In 2008/09 an average of 96% of formal consultations ACCOUNTS & REPORT ANNUAL ENGLISH HERITAGE were returned within the agreed deadline. Some of the key developments which came to fruition over the past year for which English Heritage provided advice were: • St Pancras Station, London: adaptation of the Grade I station buildings to provide an international Eurostar terminal. • Cooper’s Studios, Newcastle upon Tyne: conversion of an 1897 auction room for horses and carriages which later became an early car showroom. Saved from demolition, it is now a prestigious office. • St Martin in the Fields, London: completion of the refurbishment of the Grade I listed church and the adaptation and conversion of the vaults to social and community use. • Block Mills, HM Dockyard, Portsmouth: refurbishment of the Grade I listed Building At Risk by Defence Estates. • Blenkinsopp Castle, Northumberland: the repair of an at risk Scheduled Ancient Monument and Grade II listed early 19th century house which incorporates the remains of a 14th century tower. • Great Yarmouth, Norfolk: changes negotiated with the promoters of a proposed casino scheme so that the setting of Nelson’s Monument, a local icon erected between 1817-19, would not be compromised by the new development. Our responsibility for advising Government on proposed designations continues to command considerable attention. We received 2,028 requests for changes to the statutory list and DCMS listed 440 buildings on our recommendation. Some high profile campaigns both for and against the listing of buildings have been run, particularly over modern buildings. Work on the designation of schools, churches and cemeteries and into areas facing particularly high levels of redevelopment pressure continues. 8 ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2008 / 09 management oftheirbuildings. withlocalcommunities toenable are themtotakeworking fullerresponsibility for the officers Association have beenestablished following asuccessfulpilotprojectinManchester.

9 The joint English Heritage and Heritage Lottery Fund Repair Grants for Places of Worship scheme, the largest single source of funding for repairs to places of worship in England, has offered over £156 million to over 1,700 projects since 2002. In 2008/09 206 grants were offered, including £108,000 to the New West End Synagogue in London for roof repairs and £46,000 to All Saints Church, Herstmonceux, East Sussex, to replace cedar roof shingles which had been badly attacked by woodpeckers. Awards in the joint English Heritage and Wolfson Foundation Grants for Cathedrals scheme saw 24 grants totalling £2.7 million offered to 23 cathedrals. As well as individual buildings, English Heritage recognises the importance of maintaining the integrity of areas and streetscapes. A grant of £1 million has been pledged to High Street 2012, the improvement of groups of historic buildings at risk on the A11 corridor linking the City of London to the Olympics site. We also carried out an appraisal which led to the designation of a conservation area around a complex of industrial buildings near the Olympic site thus ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS & REPORT ANNUAL ENGLISH HERITAGE preserving them in this major development area. English Heritage disburses the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund on behalf of the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. This year we gave £1.4 million to projects to identify, protect and conserve the historic environment from the impact of aggregates extraction on land and at sea. Three vulnerable monuments associated with aggregates received repair grants: a church in Buxton, Derbyshire, and two historic quarrying areas in Portland, Dorset. From time to time, English Heritage also intervenes directly to provide solutions where no other organisation is able to do so. One such case was with the acquisition of the JW Evans silver factory in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter which English Heritage secured for the nation last year. A contract has now been let for the stabilisation of the building and we are undertaking essential research to understand this important site better. English Heritage’s London Squares Campaign also continues to improve local places and lever investment. Fitzroy Square opened this year following joint funding with Camden Council. As a founder member and funder of Hadrian’s Wall Heritage Ltd, English Heritage has supported the company to produce the latest Management Plan for the Hadrian’s Wall World Heritage Site. English Heritage has also supported the development of proposals for the Lake District World Heritage Site. As part of our national programme to encourage and stimulate development of traditional craft skills we support the North East Heritage Skills Project. This year it organised the second North East Heritage Skills Fair at the National Trust’s Gibside Estate which saw over 4,000 people attend over three days and try out new skills. The project also offered 24 practical training courses on a range of traditional skills such as cobble laying, lime and hair plastering and dry stone walling. 10 ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2008 / 09 proportion of adults from priority groups attending heritage sites.

11 from Black and Minority Ethnic groups more than met the target of a three percent increase, attendance by adults from lower socio-economic groups or who have a limiting disability did not meet this target. To understand why fewer people from lower socio-economic groups visit historic places English Heritage hosted a conference, Missing Out?, in March. New research will explore the attitudes and expectations families have about English Heritage sites and heritage in general. The findings will be shared widely and will inform English Heritage’s operational strategy. We continue to create community engagement projects which inspire new connections with the historic environment. This year 41,289 people from under-represented groups participated, learning new skills, making links with others in their community or gaining a new perspective on heritage. Highlights of this year’s programme include an initiative on the architectural significance and future regeneration potential of Manningham in Bradford. A publication was produced and a film made

by the local community in which they shared their memories and voiced their opinions on what ACCOUNTS & REPORT ANNUAL ENGLISH HERITAGE is and isn’t significant in the area. The project Traditions to Transitions in Penwith, Cornwall, enabled young people and their families to learn about sustainable lifestyles and traditional craft skills. Working with Age Concern, the young people interviewed older members of their community about using traditional heritage skills. They then had an opportunity to try out these skills and think about the relevance to their lives in a sustainable, less oil-dependant future. We share our outreach work on the Our Place website (ourplacenetwork.org.uk) which now includes over 1,000 members. The site supports people working to broaden engagement in the heritage sector. One initiative this year has been to create an area within YouTube in which people can post videos produced through community engagement projects. The number of people coming to events at our properties reached 534,737, a 9% increase on last year. Our flagship event, the Festival of History, attracted 17,784 visitors over two days. The National Monuments Record staged 11 exhibitions of its material at 22 venues across the country, attracting 170,000 visitors. Among these was an exhibition of the photographs of the German émigré John Gay (1909-99) at Kenwood House which was visited by over 24,000 people. It was accompanied by a publication, England Observed: John Gay (1909-99) on his life and work. English Heritage’s Publishing team, an increasingly important outlet for our research and expertise, was re-structured in May 2008 since when 12 new titles have been published and promoted in a new-style catalogue formally launched at the London Book Fair. The third English Heritage Historical Review was published in December and we produced six new volumes in our ‘Red’ Guidebook series this year for sites ranging from Castle Acre Priory and Castle to Witley Court. Blue Plaques were erected to honour 11 notable individuals this year, including those to actors Alastair Sim, Dame Celia Johnson and Sir Ralph Richardson, landscape architect Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe, and James Smithson, founder of the Smithsonian Institute. 12 ENGLISH HERITAGE ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS 2008 / 09 of March 235 surveys hadbeencompleted.of March235surveys We have beendeveloping theskillsandknowledge programme. maintenance andconservation At theend anew prioritised condition andtoinform initscaretoestablish their ofalltheproperties conditionsurveys isundertaking English Heritage properties. plans toreducecarbonemissionsatourofficesand historic office, ofourlargest pilot assessmentofthecarbonfootprint inSwindon, our whichwillinform We areimplementingourSustainable Development andClimateChangeStrategy, includinga home andothermoreflexible ways of working. includingtosupport achieved ISO20000re-accreditationandequipmenthasbeenupgraded regional officestoincreasecapacityandimprove processingspeeds.again TheICTdepartment were provided toseven moved fromLondonandnewfileservers Swindon tohouse40servers To thesemoves, support ourITsystemshaveroomwasbuilt in beenimproved.A new server over started. 230sincetheprogramme London officebasedpostsstillfurther.

As part of our drive to rationalise the storage of our historic artefact collections, in the interests of economy, public access and conservation, we have installed state-of-the-art powered pallet racking systems at our store in Helmsley, Yorkshire. Our work has been recognised in many ways this year. We were delighted to achieve several awards for our sites, for example, Goodrich and Bolsover Castles winning regional visitor attraction of the year awards.
