Introduction i. The purpose of the paper is to explore the historic environment looking at related strategies and policies and the state of the historic environment in Greater Manchester. It identifies key messages and issues that the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework will need to address. Heritage Assets ii. The majority of the heritage assets within Greater Manchester fall within the following categories: Industrial heritage: mills, commercial buildings, chimneys, civic buildings, churches and associated housing, parks and gardens and model villages; Transport infrastructure heritage: historic bridges (some of medieval origin), canals and railway infrastructure; Leisure heritage: public houses, swimming baths, billiard halls and cinemas; Religious heritage: churches, chapels and other buildings, serving all denominations; Large hall residences and their associated open spaces; Places of social, political and cultural reform and improvements: sites relating to historical events, institutions and commercial enterprise; Significant archaeological sites: associated with Roman and medieval activities; and Open spaces: those surrounding historic buildings, squares, markets and landscape infrastructure such as railing gates, walls and monuments. iii. The collective significance of Greater Manchester’s heritage is recognised nationally through the statutory designations that apply to heritage assets and is evidenced locally through designated Conservation Areas (CAs)

  • Adult Social Care Portfolio
    Date: October 2019 Version 1.0 Approved by DM 1 ECONOMY AND REGENERATION PORTFOLIO OVERVIEW Portfolio Summary Since launching my portfolio agreement back in July, we have made good progress in several areas and seen major development in potentially achieving better public transport. The Mayoral Development Corporation (MDC) is now a reality and the prospect of 3,500 new homes, many of which will be affordable, is now on the horizon. Working with Homes England and with cabinet agreeing to a £100m loan facility to ‘kick-start’ development, this represents a significant period in the regeneration of our town centre and realising the true potential our borough has. Indeed, with the Mailbox – aka the old Sorting Office – nearing completion, the first project within the MDC boundary is almost upon us, providing 119 new homes. Our work within the Market Place is bearing fruit: footfall is up 6.3% compared to the previous year, above the forecast of 5%. Of course, the success of the Produce Hall is central to the Market Place’s resurgence and I make no apology for being a vocal supporter of it. Of course, there is still much to do; I am still mindful that people want to see a more comprehensive outdoor offering. I do, too, but this must be sustainable for the long-term: we only need to look at what recently happened in Rochdale to understand that markets are a very delicate area within retail. Occupancy within Stockport Town Centre is on course to meet our 75% target and we are hopeful we will meet our target of 300 independent businesses within the Town Centre this year.

  • Electoral Review of Salford City Council
    Electoral review of Salford City Council Response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on Warding Patterns August 2018 1 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Salford in 2018 has changed dramatically since the city’s previous electoral review of 2002. Salford has seen a turnaround in its fortunes over recent years, reversing decades of population decline and securing high levels of investment. The city is now delivering high levels of growth, in both new housing and new jobs, and is helping to drive forward both Salford’s and the Greater Manchester economies. 1.2 The election of the Greater Manchester Mayor and increased devolution of responsibilities to Greater Manchester, and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, is fundamentally changing the way Salford City Council works in areas of economic development, transport, work and skills, planning, policing and more recently health and social care. 1.3 Salford’s directly elected City Mayor has galvanised the city around eight core priorities – the Great Eight. Delivering against these core priorities will require the sustained commitment and partnership between councillors, partners in the private, public, community and voluntary and social enterprise sectors, and the city’s residents. This is even more the case in the light of ongoing national policy changes, the impending departure of the UK from the EU, and continued austerity in funding for vital local services. The city’s councillors will have an absolutely central role in delivering against these core priorities, working with all our partners and residents to harness the energies and talents of all of the city.

  • Neighbourhood Management & Area Working Programme
    NEIGHBOURHOOD MANAGEMENT & AREA WORKING PROGRAMMES This document provides the breakdown of Neighbourhood Management and Area working funding over the past 6 years. The funding was allocated originally in 2-year programmes, and more recently as 1-year programme. The Neighbourhood Management programmes were coordinated and managed by Bolton Council (BMBC) and Bolton at Home (for Breightmet, Tonge with the Haulgh, Hulton Lane, Washacre and Johnson Fold). Members have discretion to shape priorities and spend within their areas but have been guided by the principles that projects should help to improve outcomes and narrow the gap between our least deprived and most deprived areas, and have a clear benefit to the quality of life in an area. The Council is publishing this historical information as part of its commitment to transparency; and has undertaken to publish information about new allocations on a regular basis. Note: April 2021 – This document has been updated to include the Neighbourhood Management information for the Bolton at Home managed areas. This includes: Breightmet, Tonge with the Haulgh, Hulton Lane, Washacre and Johnson Fold. 1 NEIGHBOURHOOD MANAGEMENT PROGRAMME 2013 – 2015 Neighbourhood Management - Crompton 2013 - 2015 Total £78,296 Project £ Lancs Wildlife Trust project tree planting and working with schools and groups 7,500 Various Traffic Regulation Orders covering Baythorpe St, Ullswater St and others 5,705 Crompton Road safety improvements 4,590 Police - Cobden room hire 10th July 2013 80 Police - 19th August 2014 48 Sledmere Close Street Lights 1,700 Dormer St - street lights 4,600 Road safety barriers outside former Bowling Green pub, Blackburn Rd 400 Road Safety Markings at St.

  • Country Iioijs1 of Greater Mancheste
    COUNTRY IIOIJS1 OF GREATER MANCHESTE * P .•» I COUNTRY HOUSES OF GREATER MANCHESTER EDITORS :J.S.F. WALKER & A.S.TINDALL (;itiL\n<it MANCHESTER ARCHAEOLOGICAL UNIT 1985 osi CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT The country house is part of the diverse and rich heritage of Greater Manchester. This volume follows the development of the country house from the Middle Ages to the present day, using a combination of .archaeological excavation, documentary research and survey to present a coherent study of a building type which reflects the social and economic development of the community in a singularly direct way. By their survival they .demonstrate the entrepreneurial skills of the owner and the abilities of those artisans who built and maintained them. The form and function of the country house change over the centuries, and the fabric of individual buildings mirrors these changes and encapsulates much of the history of the time. Many of our country houses are in good hands, well maintained and with a secure future. Many others described in this volume are already lost, and even the land upon which they stood has been so disturbed as to allow no further site investigation. Their loss, in many cases, was inevitable but I hope that this publication will create an awareness that others, too valuable to be allowed to disappear, are at risk. The protection and refurbishment of old buildings is costly, but I am confident that present conservation policies, allied with improving public and private attitudes towards preservation, have created a strong body of opinion in favour of the constructive re-use of the best of those which survive.

    Cultural Digital Designers in Residence in Schools 2020 A project by the Comino / Ideas Foundation partnership in Greater Manchester Schools with Manchester Metropolitan University Project Name: Bygone Bolton CDDIR Name: Tom Cockeram CDDIR Course: MA Product Design Allumnus School DigitalName: Designers Ladybridge in Residence High Schoolin Schools 2016 Teachers Names: Joy Helliwell, Jess Greenhalgh Cultural Organisation: The Science and Industry Museum, Manchester Link Staff Name: Adam Flint Curriculum Areas: Citizenship & Art Pupils Year and Number: 19 yr 8 and 9s Project Overview Students created their own monuments to people and places in Bolton, that were significant in the town’s development during the Industrial Revolution. These were informed by a trip to SIM’s Textiles Gallery and a walking tour of Bolton town centre. The finished sculptures will be exhibited as a 3D map alongside the walking tour so that other students can share the experience. Project Rationale To provide a way for the students to connect with their surroundings. It was identified by their citizenship teacher, Ms Helliwell, that students were aware of global concepts such as slavery and the rights of the child, yet not how they have directly impacted their local landscape. To create a project alongside the students so that they felt they were co-collaborators. The end outcomes were chosen and designed by each group as a way to share the information they had gathered informally. Project Rationale To prepare students with a grounding of what courses and careers are available for them if they were interested in pursuing an art based pathway, and in addition highlight the crossover opportunities between disciplines.
