  • Traditional Windows: Their Care, Repair and Upgrading
    Traditional Windows Their Care, Repair and Upgrading Summary The loss of traditional windows from our older buildings poses one of the major threats to our heritage. Traditional windows and their glazing make an important contribution to the significance of historic areas. They are an integral part of the design of older buildings and can be important artefacts in their own right, often made with great skill and ingenuity with materials of a higher quality than are generally available today. The distinctive appearance of historic hand-made glass is not easily imitated in modern glazing. Windows are particularly vulnerable elements of a building as they are relatively easily replaced or altered. Such work often has a profound affect not only on the building itself but on the appearance of street and local area. With an increasing emphasis being placed on making existing buildings more energy efficient, replacement windows have become a greater threat than ever before to the character of historic buildings and areas. This guidance covers both timber and metal windows and is aimed at building professionals and property-owners. It sets out to show the significance of traditional domestic windows by charting their history over centuries of technical development and fashion. Detailed technical advice is then provided on their maintenance, repair and thermal upgrading as well as on their replacement. This guidance was written and compiled by David Pickles, Iain McCaig and Chris Wood with assistance from Nick Molyneux and Eleni Makri. First published by English Heritage September 2014. This edition published by Historic England February 2017. All images © Historic England unless otherwise stated.

The role of architects and other design professionals 4 Tensions between ideal and compromised realities 6 Compromised visions 6 Compromised reality – social life of a building 8 Conclusion 11 References 12 Appendix 1: James Roberts interviewed on 11 December 2009 by David Adams 15 Appendix 2: John Madin: interviewed on 18 December 2009 by David Adams 37 Abstract The period of concentrated reconstruction within British city centres in the years following the end of the Second World War continues to attract the interest of a range of academic disciplines. Many studies of the post-war reconstruction of British towns and cities have displayed a particular fascination with nationally-important planners and architects and there have been some recent significant oral accounts that have sought to chart the influence of prominent architects in shaping post-Second World War urban environments. Drawing specifically on recently-collected oral history narratives from James Roberts and John Madin, two of the most important locally-trained post-war architects to shape the reconstruction of Birmingham (UK), this paper explores the extent to which their artistic visions for the heart of Britain’s second city were tempered during the design and development process.

  • The Evolution of Industry in Uganda Marios Obwona,1 Isaac Shinyekwa,2 Julius Kiiza,3 and Eria Hisali4
    Working Paper No. 9 The evolution of industry in Uganda Marios Obwona,1 Isaac Shinyekwa,2 Julius Kiiza,3 and Eria Hisali4 Abstract The paper looks at the evolution of industry in Uganda examining drivers and constraints since the pre-colonial period in the 1940s to date. It is argued that the state played a central role in industrialization during the pre-colonial and immediate post-colonial period. The paper further looks at industrialisation during the liberal phase. The current structure, size and distribution of industry are discussed in light of the laissez fair paradigm. The non-direct interventionist policy to industrialization has not been adequate to propel industrial development in Uganda. State withdrawal from direct involvement in industrial development was prematurely done and should be revisited Keywords: industry, structure, firm, evolution, size, distribution, policy JEL classification: B15, B52, L11, L16 1 1National Planning Authority, [email protected], 2Economic Policy Research Center, 3Makerere University, Department of Political Science and Economic Policy Research Centre, Kampala, [email protected]; 4School of Economics Makerere University, [email protected] The Brookings Institution is a private non-profit organization.

  • The Works Brass Band – a Historical Directory of the Industrial and Corporate Patronage and Sponsorship of Brass Bands
    The works brass band – a historical directory of the industrial and corporate patronage and sponsorship of brass bands Gavin Holman, January 2020 Preston Corporation Tramways Band, c. 1910 From the earliest days of brass bands in the British Isles, they have been supported at various times and to differing extents by businesses and their owners. In some cases this support has been purely philanthropic, but there was usually a quid pro quo involved where the sponsor received benefits – e.g. advertising, income from band engagements, entertainment for business events, a “worthwhile” pastime for their employees, corporate public relations and brand awareness - who would have heard of John Foster’s Mills outside of the Bradford area if it wasn’t for the Black Dyke Band? One major sponsor and supporter of brass bands, particularly in the second half of the 19th century, was the British Army, through the Volunteer movement, with upwards of 500 bands being associated with the Volunteers at some time – a more accurate estimate of these numbers awaits some further analysis. However, I exclude these bands from this paper, to concentrate on the commercial bodies that supported brass bands. I am also excluding social, civic, religious, educational and political organisations’ sponsorship or support. In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a band, composed of workers from a particular company or industry was supported by the business or not. The “workmen’s band” was often a separate entity, supported by a local trade union or other organisation. For the purposes of this review I will be including them unless there is specific reference to a trade union or other social organisation.
