  • St James Conservation Area Audit
    ST JAMES’S 17 CONSERVATION AREA AUDIT AREA CONSERVATION Document Title: St James Conservation Area Audit Status: Adopted Supplementary Planning Guidance Document ID No.: 2471 This report is based on a draft prepared by B D P. Following a consultation programme undertaken by the council it was adopted as Supplementary Planning Guidance by the Cabinet Member for City Development on 27 November 2002. Published December 2002 © Westminster City Council Department of Planning & Transportation, Development Planning Services, City Hall, 64 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6QP www.westminster.gov.uk PREFACE Since the designation of the first conservation areas in 1967 the City Council has undertaken a comprehensive programme of conservation area designation, extensions and policy development. There are now 53 conservation areas in Westminster, covering 76% of the City. These conservation areas are the subject of detailed policies in the Unitary Development Plan and in Supplementary Planning Guidance. In addition to the basic activity of designation and the formulation of general policy, the City Council is required to undertake conservation area appraisals and to devise local policies in order to protect the unique character of each area. Although this process was first undertaken with the various designation reports, more recent national guidance (as found in Planning Policy Guidance Note 15 and the English Heritage Conservation Area Practice and Conservation Area Appraisal documents) requires detailed appraisals of each conservation area in the form of formally approved and published documents. This enhanced process involves the review of original designation procedures and boundaries; analysis of historical development; identification of all listed buildings and those unlisted buildings making a positive contribution to an area; and the identification and description of key townscape features, including street patterns, trees, open spaces and building types.

  • Montgomery County Reconnaissance Level Survey
    UlT 51 \Þ1. ¡ .fCO M Ol.J MERY COL-I NTY J { : I €t þ"d {x',n:, t s @ t s ('- {'. HISTORIC SITES SLJRVEY VOLLJ ME 1 JULY, 1986 Montgomery County Reconnaissance Level Survey July, 1986 INTRODUCTION Since the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan in 1983, Montgomery County has experienced increased development and population growth. In light of this growth, the Planning Commission became aware of the need for a tool to help plan growth and still preserve the County's historical and architectural resources, The need to inventory these resources was evident. In 1985, Montgomery County applied and received a matching grant from the Division of Historic Landmarks to perform a Reconnaissance Level Survey of the County's architecturally significant buildings. This survey includes the following: 1) An Overview of the County's History 2) A Comprehensive Inventory of significant structures and sites in the County--including photographs and floor plans and; 3) Maps delineating the location of said structures and sites. It is anticipated that thfs survey will be a useful resource in future planning activities such as the evaluation of rezoning requests, the revision of the Comprehensive Plan and potential amendments of the County's Zoning Ordfnance to create a Historic District Overlay. Further, it will provide citizens interested in doing historical, archaeological. and genealogical research with valuable information. The following individuals contributed to the realization of this final report. Gibson Worsham, Architect Dan Pezzoni, Surveyor Charlotte Worsham, Architectural Historian David Rotenizer, President, New River Valley Chapter, Archeological Society of Virgdnia Frank Lorino Jeanie Maslich, Planning Department Secretary Valerie McBrayer, Secretary Bill Ruska, Planning Staff Nancy Ward, Planning Staff TABLE OF CONTENTS Volume I: Introduction Table of Contents Survey Methodology ...................................

  • Great Britons Date of Issue: 10 JULY 1974
    SPECIAL STAMP HISTORY Great Britons Date of issue: 10 JULY 1974 The first suggestion for what finally became the ‘Great Britons’ issue was probably on 26 August 1971, when A H Woodland, Director of the South West Postal Region, proposed in a letter to Postal Marketing ‘a non-anniversary orientated series of British heroes’ within the 1973 stamp programme, albeit his idea was not taken up. When the 1974 programme was considered in May 1972, the idea was revived at an early stage, prompted by proposals, principally from the Scottish National Party but also from private individuals and newspaper articles, that the Post Office mark the 700th anniversary of the birth of Robert the Bruce. Attention had also been drawn to the Bruce anniversary in a list of dates for possible commemoration commissioned from the Historical Research Unit, that had come to hand in March. The Bruce anniversary was included among the subjects considered for the 1974 programme by the Stamp Advisory Committee (SAC) on 15 June. The SAC did not commit itself at this stage; it was decided to circularise postal regions with a shortlist of possible subjects and soliciting further comment and suggestions. The 700th anniversary was included in the final version of the shortlist agreed by the SAC on 7 September; the letter was sent on 12 September signed by E G White, chairman of the SAC and Director of Postal Marketing (DPM). It included the following proposal: 1 British National Leaders. This series would be centred round the 700th anniversary of Robert the Bruce of Scotland and could include Owen Glendower of Wales and Hereward the Wake of England.
