    1 2 3 Our goal in this lecture will be to show how the definition and ideas of structural art began and to do that we need to turn our attention to Great Britain and the first civil engineers that developed following the industrial revolution. So we look at a series of structures starting at the onset of the industrial revolution. And we also continue defining structural art through comparative critical analysis which makes a comparison based on the 3 perspectives of structural art: scientific, social, and symbolic. 4 SLIDE 2 Image: Public Domain CIA World Facebook (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Uk-map.png) To begin we have to look at the beginning of the fundamental changes that happened as a result of the industrial revolution. I’m not going to go deep into the Industrial Revolution, but there were two major changes that led to the emergence of this new art form of the engineer. One is the change of building material. For example, they were building with wood and stone, and then following the Industrial Revolution, constructions are made with iron. There is also a change of power source from animal and human power to steam power. These two fundamental changes enabled the materials iron, steel and concrete, etc. to come about. Our lecture today is going to focus on engineering in Great Britain. Today’s lecture focuses on designers of Great Britain [Indicate Scotland, England, and Wales on map] Industrial revolution began in Great Britain in late 18th century on basis of two fundamental changes in engineering: 1 – change of building material from wood and stone to industrial iron This was THE material of the industrial revolution 5 2 – steam power (instead of human or animal power) – made iron possible (but we don’t focus on this point in this class) What also happened was that this new material was so much stronger that it needed less and less material.

Please send any corrections or additional information to [email protected]. 1 3.5 Common lands and the Quarry. [W.A. Champion – Final draft, Jan. 2012] The agrarian interests of the borough and Shrewsbury abbey By the 1840s almost 3,000 acres of gardens and agricultural land in Shrewsbury’s suburban townships, including Abbey Foregate, still remained to be surveyed by the tithe commissioners, of which half (c.1481 a.) lay in the parish of Holy Cross and St Giles.1 Although to some extent, as elsewhere,2 the open fields at Shrewsbury were once located closest to the built-up areas, with the common pastures further out, that pattern was disturbed not only by the inherent quality of land but also by the sinuous course of the Severn and the disposition of the old river bed abandoned c.5,000 years ago, leaving much of Coton encircled by a belt of damp 'moors'.3 In addition, until 1835 the manor of Meole Brace, including Kingsland common, separated the open fields of Coleham and Frankwell.4 As a result a more irregular pattern existed, notably in Coton where some of the arable open fields lay at the furthest point from the town, separated from it by a mixture of moors and closes.

  • Ancient Chapels’
    Victoria County History Shropshire Volume VI, part II Shrewsbury: Institutions, buildings and culture Section 4.2. ‘Ancient chapels’ The following text is an unrevised draft prepared by the late W. A. Champion. It is made available here through the kindness of his executors. © The Executors of W. A. Champion. Not to be reproduced without permission. Please send any corrections or additional information to [email protected]. 1 4.2. Ancient Chapels [W.A. Champion – Final draft, Jan. 2012] Eleven ancient chapels, one parochial, are recorded in Shrewsbury, although in four cases the references are to two chapels re-dedicated in the Middle Ages. The history of St George’s chapel in Frankwell was associated with the adjacent hospital, one of three similar institutions in medieval Shrewsbury whose history has been outlined elsewhere.1 St Catherine’s chapel, Coton. The chapel of St Catherine at Coton, mentioned in 1395,2 was attached to a hermitage, one of three in Shrewsbury’s suburbs, and appears to have been appropriated by the Pride family before 1408.3 Part of the Pride inheritance passed to the Mytton family,4 and in 1521 the heirs of Thomas Mytton paid a rent of 1d. to the borough pro parva capella Sancte Katerine.5 The chapel remained Mytton property until the 19th century.6 The chapel yard, bisected by the Shrewsbury and Chester railway, was marked on the Coton tithe map of 1849,7 indicating that the chapel stood at the junction of the Ellesmere and Baschurch roads. Cadogan’s chapel, Frankwell. In 1332 the harper Jevan Devenald was licenced to grant land in mortmain to a chaplain to celebrate service in the chapel of the Holy Trinity, Kadugenscros, for the soul of the King and his ancestors.8 A Shrewsbury location is not mentioned but the reference may be to Cadogan’s Cross in Frankwell on the Oswestry road (The Mount).
