    Section 7 ALAVES - The Blessley History Editor’s Note - 1 When Ken Blessley agreed to complete the ALAVES story it was decided by the new Local Authority Valuers Association that it would be printed, together with the first instalment, and circulated to members. Both parts have been printed unamended, the only liberty I have taken with the text has been to combine the appendices. As reprinting necessitated retyping any subsequent errors and omissions are my responsibility. Barry Searle, 1987 Editor’s Note - 2 As part of the preparation of “A Century Surveyed”, Ken Blessley’s tour de force has been revisited. The document has been converted into computer text and is reproduced herewith, albeit in a much smaller and condensed typeface in order to reduce the number of pages. Colin Bradford, 2009 may well be inaccuracies. These can, of course, be corrected if they are of any significance. The final version will, it is hoped, be carefully conserved in the records of the Association so that possibly some ALAVES - 1949-1986 future member may be prepared to carry out a similar exercise in perhaps ten years’ time. The circulation of the story is limited, largely because of expense, but also because of the lesser interest of the majority of the current membership in what happened all those years Kenneth Blessley ago.

  • Local Government in London Had Always Been More Overtly Partisan Than in Other Parts of the Country but Now Things Became Much Worse
    Part 2 The evolution of London Local Government For more than two centuries the practicalities of making effective governance arrangements for London have challenged Government and Parliament because of both the scale of the metropolis and the distinctive character, history and interests of the communities that make up the capital city. From its origins in the middle ages, the City of London enjoyed effective local government arrangements based on the Lord Mayor and Corporation of London and the famous livery companies and guilds of London’s merchants. The essential problem was that these capable governance arrangements were limited to the boundaries of the City of London – the historic square mile. Outside the City, local government was based on the Justices of the Peace and local vestries, analogous to parish or church boundaries. While some of these vestries in what had become central London carried out extensive local authority functions, the framework was not capable of governing a large city facing huge transport, housing and social challenges. The City accounted for less than a sixth of the total population of London in 1801 and less than a twentieth in 1851. The Corporation of London was adamant that it neither wanted to widen its boundaries to include the growing communities created by London’s expansion nor allow itself to be subsumed into a London-wide local authority created by an Act of Parliament. This, in many respects, is the heart of London’s governance challenge. The metropolis is too big to be managed by one authority, and local communities are adamant that they want their own local government arrangements for their part of London.

  • Black Internationalism and African and Caribbean
    BLACK INTERNATIONALISM AND AFRICAN AND CARIBBEAN INTELLECTUALS IN LONDON, 1919-1950 By MARC MATERA A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in History Written under the direction of Professor Bonnie G. Smith And approved by _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May 2008 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Black Internationalism and African and Caribbean Intellectuals in London, 1919-1950 By MARC MATERA Dissertation Director: Bonnie G. Smith During the three decades between the end of World War I and 1950, African and West Indian scholars, professionals, university students, artists, and political activists in London forged new conceptions of community, reshaped public debates about the nature and goals of British colonialism, and prepared the way for a revolutionary and self-consciously modern African culture. Black intellectuals formed organizations that became homes away from home and centers of cultural mixture and intellectual debate, and launched publications that served as new means of voicing social commentary and political dissent. These black associations developed within an atmosphere characterized by a variety of internationalisms, including pan-ethnic movements, feminism, communism, and the socialist internationalism ascendant within the British Left after World War I. The intellectual and political context of London and the types of sociability that these groups fostered gave rise to a range of black internationalist activity and new regional imaginaries in the form of a West Indian Federation and a United West Africa that shaped the goals of anticolonialism before 1950.

  • Parks Open Spaces Timeline
    Wandsworth Council Parks time line There are many large green open places in south west London. The commons of Barnes, Battersea, Clapham, Putney, Streatham, Tooting, Wandsworth and Wimbledon date from ‘time immemorial’. Though largely comprising the wastes or heathland of a parish, the commons were integral to mediaeval land settlements and were owned by lords of the manors. As London developed during the nineteenth century the land was increasingly developed for housing. Several legal battles took place to defend the commons as open land. Garratt Green had long been ‘defended’ by the infamous Mayors of Garratt elections. Listed below are the green places in the Borough of Wandsworth that are managed by Wandsworth Parks Service. Further historic information can be found in the individual site management plans. 1858 A Royal Commission into housing recommended creating Battersea Park, Kennington Park, and Victoria Park in Hackney with formal and informal gardens as a way offering moral improvement to an area. Health was a matter of fresh air, exercise and diet, rather than one of medical resources. 1885 Battersea Vestry created Christchurch Gardens as ‘an outdoor drawing room’. The shelter and memorial were added after 1945. 1886 Waterman’s Green was created by the Metropolitan Board of Works as part of the approach to the new Putney Bridge when it was rebuilt in stone. It was not publicly accessible. 1888 Battersea Vestry owned the parish wharf and created Vicarage Gardens as a promenade, complete with ornamental urns on plinths along the river wall. During 1990s it was included in flood defence schemes. 1903 Leader’s Gardens and Coronation Gardens were created as public parks by private donation from two wealthy local individuals.

  • A Mayor and Assembly for London: 10 Years On
    2 July 2010 A Mayor and Assembly for London: 10 years on Tony Travers and Christine Whitehead A brief history… It is 10 years since the Greater London Authority was created as a metropolitan or regional tier of government for London. There have been five different arrangements of ‘upper tier’ government in the capital since the Metropolitan Board of Works (MBW) was created in 1855 to build infrastructure. The MBW was succeeded by the London County Council (LCC), a powerful authority for the inner part of the contemporary city. Within this area 28 metropolitan boroughs and the City of London delivered ‘local’ services. Two factors were particularly important in influencing the progress of London’s government. First, the physical expansion of the city created demands for provision across a wider area than the City of London’s original and long-evolved ‘square mile’. The Metropolitan Police Service was created by the government in 1829 to meet the law and order requirements of a fast-growing city. The squalor and chaos of the London of the 1850s prompted Parliament to legislate for London’s first-ever metropolitan government, an indirectly-elected entity. Further physical expansion between the end of the 19 th century and 1939 generated a debate about the need for a ‘Greater London’ government 1. The second important factor in determining the kinds of institutions that emerged was the local power and parochialism of both the City of London and the parish-based or ad hoc bodies that developed to deliver services in the absence of a city-wide government.

The history of these development plans is well known.
