  • Bloomsbury in Nineteenth-Century Fiction: Some Quotations Compiled by Matt Ingleby and Deborah Colville
    Bloomsbury in Nineteenth-Century Fiction: Some Quotations compiled by Matt Ingleby and Deborah Colville From Theodore Hook’s Sayings and Doings (1824) One day, some week perhaps after the dismissal of Rushbrook, Henry was dining with the Meadowses, who were going to Mrs. Saddington’s assembly in Russell-square. It may be advantageously observed here, that this lady was the dashing wife of the eminent banker, whose acceptance to a bill due the next day my hero had in his pocket. To this party Mrs. Meadows pressed him to accompany them, never forgetting, as I hope my readers never will, that he, the said Henry Merton, Esq. held an appointment under Government of some four-and-twenty hundred pounds per annum, and was therefore a more suitable and agreeable companion for herself and daughter, than when he was “a single gentleman three months ago,” with no estate save that, which lay under his hat, and no income except that derivable from property entirely at the disposal of his father. Henry at first objected; but never having seen much of that part of the town in which this semi-fashionable lived, and desirous of ascertaining how people “make it out” in the recesses of Bloomsbury and the wilds of Guildford Street, and feeling that “all the world to him” would be there, at length agreed to go, and accordingly proceeded with the ladies in their carriage through Oxford-street, St. Giles’s, Tottenham-court-road and so past Dyott-street, and the British Museum, to the remote scene of gaiety, which they, however, reached in perfect safety.

  • Bloomsbury and the Bloomsbury Project
    Bloomsbury and the Bloomsbury Project An introduction by Rosemary Ashton For a hundred years Bloomsbury has been celebrated as the home of the ‘Bloomsbury Group’ of writers and artists who lived and worked in the area in the early twentieth century. Yet though Virginia Woolf, her sister Vanessa Bell, and their friends have come to define the area as a centre for innovative cultural activity, they were by no means the first progressive inhabitants of Bloomsbury. The UCL Leverhulme-funded project ‘Bloomsbury and Reform in the Nineteenth Century’ is dedicated to the study of the area during the previous century, a time of major political, social, and educational change during which Bloomsbury acquired its distinctive intellectual and cultural character. The Project’s timeline begins in the year 1800, when Francis Russell, fifth Duke of Bedford, obtained two acts of Parliament to develop his large Bloomsbury estate, the area stretching north from Great Russell Street to Euston Road and encompassing new squares including Russell, Tavistock, Woburn, and Torrington Squares, while the estate belonging to the Foundling Hospital further east was being developed at the same time, with streets and squares leading to Gray’s Inn Road. A striking number of pioneering nineteenth-century institutions are to be found in Bloomsbury, the area bounded by Tottenham Court Road in the west, Euston Road to the north, Gray’s Inn Road to the east, and Holborn to the south. The establishment of these institutions turned Bloomsbury from a largely undeveloped backwater, an area of swampy marshland and rubbish dumps, into London’s intellectual and cultural heartland, the location for progress and innovation in many fields—art, law, education, science, and medicine—which it remains to the present day.

  • Traffic Order 2020 Notice Is Hereby Given That The
    The Camden (Prescribed Routes) (No. 5) Traffic Order 2020 Notice is hereby given that the Council of the London Borough of Camden proposes to make the above Order under Sections 6 and 124 and Part IV of Schedule 9 to the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, as amended. The general nature and effect of the order will be to prohibit certain vehicle movements in Tottenham Court Road and side streets, Gower Street and side streets and in Shaftesbury Avenue and nearby streets. In general, the measures will limit the daytime use of Tottenham Court Road northbound and southbound by prohibiting through traffic between 8am and 7pm on Mondays to Saturdays. Sections of Tottenham Court Road may be accessed from side streets but traffic will be required not to proceed past certain junctions and turn into those side streets. Uninterrupted north and southbound travel at all times is provided via Gower Street, Bloomsbury Square (east arm) and Bloomsbury Street which become two-way working. The two eastern arms of Shaftesbury Avenue, north of High Holborn, will be closed to through traffic (i.e. the arm which lie adjacent to nos. 210-236 Shafetsbury Avenue and the arm which lies adjacent to the Shaftesbury Theatre). Access to from premises located at nos. 210 – 236 (even numbers) Shaftesbury Avenue will be provided by a traffic lane running from the junction with West Central Street to the junction with Grape Street. The two western arms of Shaftesbury Avenue will become two-way working to provide a through route for traffic travelling in both directions between the junctions with Bloomsbury Street / New Oxford Street and High Holborn / St.

    Giles Worsley, ‘The “Best Turned” House of The Duke of Bedford’, The Georgian Group Jounal, Vol. VI, 1996, pp. 63–73 TEXT © THE AUTHORS 1996 THE ‘BEST TURNED’ HOUSE OF THE DUKE OF BEDFORD Giles Worsley outhampton or Bedford House, as it later came to be known, was one of London’s great aristocratic houses, but it has largely been ignored by architectural historians, perhaps because it was demolished as long ago as 1800. Few accounts of mid-17th-century British Sarchitecture refer to it more than tangentially, and those that do assume that it was built after the Restoration.1 Careful examination of the documentary sources, however, shows that Southampton House was begun between 1638 and 1640 and built, although probably not fitted out, before the Civil War. This makes it one of the most substantial new houses to be built in England during the reign of Charles I and raises intriguing questions of authorship, for the sophistication of the design compares well with the works of Inigo Jones and John Webb.2 The house stood on what was then the northern edge of London, in the parish of St Giles- in-the-Fields, to the north west of Lincoln’s Inn Fields. It was a detached hotel particulier with rustic, piano nobile and attic storeys, hipped roof and dormers. Sir Roger Pratt noted that the whole building was of brick.3 Its south front, facing a forecourt and (from the 1660s) Bloomsbury Fig. 1. John Dunstall, Southampton House from the south, before 1693.
