Adjacent to the Culture Mile and close to the planned Centre for Music. Largest of the City Churchyards. Numerous spaces of varying design and character. Extremely well-used which puts pressure on pathways and seating. St Paul’s Cathedral Some re-landscaping would resolve issues, refresh planting and enhance amenity. Coordination required with the Cathedral’s programme of works. Part of the emerging St Pauls Area Strategy. Popular space in need of some re-landscaping. May be possible to introduce step-free access from Cloth St Bartholomew the Great Fair. Railings are in need of repair. Within the Culture Mile.

    planning report GLA/4868/02 15 July 2019 Land adjacent to 20 Bury Street in the City of London planning application no. 18/01213/FULEIA Strategic planning application stage II referral Town & Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended); Greater London Authority Acts 1999 and 2007; Town & Country Planning (Mayor of London) Order 2008. The proposal Demolition of existing building and structures and construction of a building to a height of 305.3m AOD for a mixed-use visitor attraction, including viewing areas, restaurant/bar area, and retail use at ground floor level; construction of a two storey building comprising visitor entrance and public roof garden. The applicant The applicant is Bury Street Properties and the architect is Foster + Partners. Key dates Pre-app meeting: 31 October 2018 Stage 1 reporting: 14 January 2019 Planning committee: 2 April 2019 Strategic issues The proposed development of a tall visitor attraction, by virtue of its height, form, design and appearance would not constitute the very highest quality of design required for a tall building in this location. The development would compromise the ability to appreciate the Outstanding Universal Value of the Tower of London World Heritage Site and would cause harm to the historic environment. It would cause harm to the character and composition of the existing tall building cluster, the wider skyline and image of London, and strategic views, as well as the public space surrounding the site. The public benefits of the scheme are limited and would not outweigh this harm. The proposals are considered to result in a poor quality, unwelcoming, unnecessarily confined pedestrian environment and would provide inadequate cycle parking, contrary to London Plan transport policies.

The consultation was carried through drop-in sessions, user surveys and stakeholder meetings, receiving a total of 480 responses. Prior to the public consultation, a workshop with key stakeholders took place in June 2017. This was held to understand the perspectives of key landowners and decision-makers from the City and church community. The following pages provide an overview of the Churchyards Enhancement Programme and the methods used in the public consultation, before summarising the key themes and ideas highlighted. These will inform the next stages of the programme, in prioritising churchyards for enhancement and in progressing work streams to look at particular issues and aspirations across churchyards in a consistent and holistic manner.

  • City of London Spatial Classification
    LONDON ELECTORAL HISTORY – STEPS TOWARDS DEMOCRACY 7.8 LONDON AND SPATIAL CLASSIFICATION Note: Following the LEH website conventions, ‘London’ refers to the parliamentary constituency. ‘City of London’ is the spatial entity O! [London’s] Lamps of a night! Her rich goldsmiths, print shops, toy shops, mercers, hardwaremen, pastry cooks! – St. Paul’s churchyard, the Strand! Exeter Change! – Charing Cross, with the man upon a black horse! – These are thy Gods O London – … All the streets and pavements are pure gold, I warrant you. – At least I know an Alchemy that turns her mud into that metal – a mind that loves to be at home in Crowds... .1 ‘London’ has long meant different things to different people. As Charles Lamb’s enthusiastic commentary indicated, it catered well for those who could cope with its crowds and diversity. Administrative London, the centre of national government, overlapped with the legal and legislative centres of the nation, while the West End became the seasonal playground of the well-to-do and the home of smart shops, with poor areas providing cheap labour tucked among the grandeur. Eastwards, commercial and financial London focused on the port and the City of London itself. It had a different appearance: of wharves and warehouses riverwards, and dwelling-places and nearby counting-houses. To take one literary example, Elizabeth Bennet’s uncle Gardiner was a City wholesaler, living, as Jane Austen specified, ‘by trade and within view of his own warehouses.’2 But over time, the City’s business premises were increasingly supplanting residential properties within the inner city, as the march of London into Middlesex provided accommodation for the teeming masses of the metropolis.

  • City of London Churches Introduction All Hallows by the Tower
    City of London Churches Introduction The following pages are a series of written by Mark McManus about some of his favourite churches in the City of London All Hallows by the Tower Barking Abbey, the remains of which still be seen, was founded by Erkenwald in the year 666. Owning land on the eastern edge of the City, the Abbey constructed the Saxon church of All Hallows Berkyngechirche on Tower Hill in 675. Over the centuries, the name mutated to All Hallows Barking. The exterior of the building is quite large and imposing, but its different architectural styles bring attention to its historic troubles: medieval masonry dominated by the brown brickwork of the post-Blitz restoration, its tower of 1659 being a rare example of a Cromwellian rebuild. Despite the somewhat forbidding exterior, the inside of the church is a spacious and light surprise. This is due mostly to Lord Mottistone's post-WWII rebuild, which replaced the previously gloomy Norman nave with concrete and stone, blending well with the medieval work of the aisles with a grace that the cluttered exterior can only dream off. The plain east window allows light to flood into the church, and the glass placed in the recently reopened southern entrance also helps to maintain this airy atmosphere. All Hallows is eager to tell its story. As you first step in through the main entrance in Great Tower Street, you are greeted by a large facsimile showing Vischer's famous engraving of pre- Great Fire London seen from the South Bank, and a gift shop which is the largest I've seen in a City church.
