  • Urban Geology in Chelsea: a Stroll Around Sloane Square Ruth Siddall
    Urban Geology in London No. 33 Urban Geology in Chelsea: A Stroll Around Sloane Square Ruth Siddall Situated in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, Sloane Square SW1, and several of the neighbouring streets are named after Sir Hans Sloane (1660-1753) who lived in the area in the mid 18th Century. The area is now owned by the Cadogan Estate Ltd. The Cadogan family inherited this from Sloane via his daughter, Elizabeth and it is still the hands of the 8th Earl Cadogan. The eldest sons of this family inherit the title Viscount Chelsea and this area is one of the top pieces of real estate in the country, earning the family over £5 billion per year. It is correspondingly a pleasant area to stroll around, the home to designer shops, the Saatchi Gallery as well as a theatre and concert venue. Development took place between the mid 19th Century and the present day and displays a range of stones fairly typical of London Building during this period – along with a few surprises. Fountain, Sloane Square, with Peter Jones Department Store behind. This walk starts at Sloane Square Underground Station on Holbein Place, and takes in the Square itself, the southern end of Sloane Street, Duke of York Square and the eastern end of the King’s Road. It is easy to return to Sloane Square station when finished, or you could visit the Saatchi Gallery which displays a collection of contemporary art to suit all tastes (and none). For the buildings described below, architectural information below is derived from Pevsner’s guide to North West London (Cherry & Pevsner, 1991), unless otherwise cited.

  • Heritage Statement
    The Office Gridiron Building One St Pancras Square London N1C 4AG Heritage Statement Red Lodge, 51 Palace Court, Westminster Written by: Ignus Froneman B.Arch.Stud ACIfA IHBC Date: 31 March 2021 On behalf of: TIKO Construction Limited Ref: 0307 INTRODUCTION 1.1 This Heritage Statement has been prepared by Ignus Froneman, Director at Cogent Heritage, in consultation with the Applicant, TIKO Construction Limited. 1.2 The application involves minor alterations to the entrance gate and boundary wall of the subject building, known as Red Lodge, at No. 51 Palace Court in Bayswater. The proposed development involves a change to the design of the vehicular gate (on Palace Court) as was previously approved. The application is retrospective, in that the gate has been installed and is presently in situ. Also included is the proposed recladding of the adjoining boundary wall with red bricks, laid in lime mortar, to exactly match the remainder of the boundary wall. This part of the proposal has not been implemented. 1.3 Red Lodge is unlisted, but falls in the Bayswater Conservation Area. 1.4 The closest listed building is the grade II listed former terraced house at No. 47 (now the Capellania Catolica Española, or Spanish Catholic Chapel). It is not considered that the significance of this building could reasonably be affected by the proposed development and, in accordance the basic, stepped approach propagated in Historic England’s Historic Environment Good Practice Advice in Planning Note 3: The Setting of Heritage Assets (GPA 3), this listed building has not been taken forward for a detailed assessment.

  • Debenhams: the Rise and Fall of a British Retail Institution Rupert Neate
    Debenhams: the rise and fall of a British retail institution Rupert Neate The Gaurdian.com 1 December 2020 Founded in 1778, Debenhams was one of the largest and most historic department store chains in the world. The business was formed by William Clark as a single high end drapers store at 44 Wigmore Street in London’s West End. It rose to become one of the biggest retailers in the UK with, at one point, more than 200 large stores across 18 countries and exclusive partnerships with some of the world’s best-known designers including Jasper Conran and Julien Macdonald. But on Tuesday, the shutters finally came down as administrators announced the chain would be wound down and all of its remaining 124 stores shut, putting potentially all of its 12,000 employees out of work. The demise of Debenhams comes just a day after Sir Philip Green’s Arcadia Group retail empire collapsed into administration, putting a further 13,000 jobs at risk. In the 1980s and 1990s both retailers had been part of the vast Burton Group, founded by Sir Montague Maurice Burton. Clark’s business remained just the single shop on Wigmore Street until 1813 when he teamed up with Suffolk businessman William Debenham, and expanded into two stores on opposite sides of the street. One was known as Debenham & Clark and the other known as Clark & Debenham. The first store outside London – and an exact replica of the original Wigmore Street shop – was opened in Cheltenham in 1818. “In the ensuing years the firm prospered from the Victorian fashion for family mourning by which widows and other female relatives adhered to a strict code of clothing and etiquette,” the company says on its website.

  • Character Overview Westminster Has 56 Designated Conservation Areas
    Westminster’s Conservation Areas - Character Overview Westminster has 56 designated conservation areas which cover over 76% of the City. These cover a diverse range of townscapes from all periods of the City’s development and their distinctive character reflects Westminster’s differing roles at the heart of national life and government, as a business and commercial centre, and as home to diverse residential communities. A significant number are more residential areas often dominated by Georgian and Victorian terraced housing but there are also conservation areas which are focused on enclaves of later housing development, including innovative post-war housing estates. Some of the conservation areas in south Westminster are dominated by government and institutional uses and in mixed central areas such as Soho and Marylebone, it is the historic layout and the dense urban character combined with the mix of uses which creates distinctive local character. Despite its dense urban character, however, more than a third of the City is open space and our Royal Parks are also designated conservation areas. Many of Westminster’s conservation areas have a high proportion of listed buildings and some contain townscape of more than local significance. Below provides a brief summary overview of the character of each of these areas and their designation dates. The conservation area audits and other documentation listed should be referred to for more detail on individual areas. 1. Adelphi The Adelphi takes its name from the 18th Century development of residential terraces by the Adam brothers and is located immediately to the south of the Strand. The southern boundary of the conservation area is the former shoreline of the Thames.

    British Display Society Recognising Excellence Established 1947 FORTNUM & MASON, PICCADILLY, LONDON Christmas Street decorations at CHAPEL OF LOVE St Christopher’s Place, London BDS - Representing the Visual Merchandising profession 2020 No.1 Welcome from the Chairman This year has not started well for fans of historic department stores. Sadly, Beales which opened in Bournemouth in 1881 and its other stores across the country fell into administration. Debenhams which traces its history back to 1778 named many stores shortly to close. Coupled with this, we learn that Boswell & Co in Oxford which dates back to 1738 is almost certain to close with the owners blaming the ‘current economic retail climate’ Times are certainly tough on the High Street have been so for some time, but I can’t help thinking that there are a number of retailers who just cannot seem to move forward with the times and current trends and wonder why they are struggling in the current economy. We all appreciate that On-Line Shopping, High Street Parking Charges and Business Rates are factors as to why retail is failing, however I look at stores such as Selfridges and Fortnum & Mason, where business is very brisk. I recently read an article about Dunelm who defy the gloom of UK retail by posting a major jump in profits. In the 6 months to Dec 28, sales jumped by 6% to £585m with pre- tax profits up 19.4% to £84.9m. Retailers must reinvent themselves to stay, not only, competitive but to become a Destination store. With some many retailers, it is matter of creating ‘Retail Theatre’.
