  • 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of A
    Committee: Date: Planning and Transportation 28 February 2017 Subject: Public 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of a building arranged on three basement floors, ground and 58 upper floors plus mezzanines and plant comprising floorspace for use within Classes A and B1 of the Use Classes Order and a publicly accessible viewing gallery and facilities (sui generis); hard and soft landscaping works; the provision of ancillary servicing and other works incidental to the development. (201,449sq.m. GEA) Ward: Lime Street For Decision Registered No: 16/01150/FULEIA Registered on: 24 November 2016 Conservation Area: St Helen's Place Listed Building: No Summary The planning application relates to the site of the 62 storey tower (294.94m AOD) granted planning permission in June 2016 and which is presently being constructed. The current scheme is for a tower comprising 59 storeys at ground and above (272.32m AOD) with an amended design to the top. The tapering of the upper storeys previously approved has been omitted and replaced by a flat topped lower tower. In other respects the design of the elevations remains as before. The applicants advise that the lowering of the tower in the new proposal is in response to construction management constraints in relation to aviation safeguarding issues. The planning application also incorporates amendments to the base of the building, the public realm and to cycle space provision which were proposed in a S73 amendment application and which your Committee resolved to grant on 28 November 2016, subject to a legal agreement but not yet issued. The building would provide offices, retail at ground level, a viewing gallery with free public access at levels 55 and 56 and a public restaurant and bar at levels 57 and 58.

  • Tower of London World Heritage Site Management Plan
    Tower of London World Heritage Site Management Plan Published by Historic Royal Palaces © Historic Royal Palaces 2007 Historic Royal Palaces Hampton Court Palace Surrey KT8 9AU June 2007 Foreword By David Lammy MP Minister for Culture I am delighted to support this Management Plan for the Tower of London World Heritage Site. The Tower of London, founded by William the Conqueror in 1066-7, is one of the world’s most famous fortresses, and Britain’s most visited heritage site. It was built to protect and control the city and the White Tower survives largely intact from the Norman period. Architecture of almost all styles that have since flourished in England may be found within the walls. The Tower has been a fortress, a palace and a prison, and has housed the Royal Mint, the Public Records and the Royal Observatory. It was for centuries the arsenal for small arms, the predecessor of the present Royal Armouries, and has from early times guarded the Crown Jewels. Today the Tower is the key to British history for visitors who come every year from all over the world to relive the past and to enjoy the pageantry of the present. It is deservedly a World Heritage Site. The Government is accountable to UNESCO and the wider international community for the future conservation and presentation of the Tower. It is a responsibility we take seriously. The purpose of the Plan is to provide an agreed framework for long-term decision-making on the conservation and improvement of the Tower and sustaining its outstanding universal value.

  • Guided Tour Pre-Visit Activity Ideas
    Guided tour Pre-visit activity ideas Local history/Geography/IT Have a search online for the tallest buildings in London with your class; what do they look like? Your pupils could make a list of tall buildings to bring along when you visit and see how many of them you can see from the walkway during your guided tour. Teacher note: you’ll definitely see the Shard, City Hall, the London Eye, the BT Tower, the Monument, St Paul’s Cathedral, the Gherkin (30 St. Mary Axe), the Scalpel, the Walkie Talkie (20 Fenchurch Street), the Tower of London and London Bridge. If there is time you’ll also see the view from the East Walkway towards Canary Wharf. Geography/History The River Thames has greatly contributed to the development of London. Research with your class how the River Thames has been used in the past – has its use changed? What is the River Thames used for today? Think about who uses the Thames today and see how many different ways of using the Thames you can see on the day of your visit during your guided tour. Teacher note: The Thames was originally used for transporting people and trade, as transporting by water was much cheaper than overland. Nowadays the Thames is used by boats transporting people mostly (tourists and commuters) and to a lesser extent goods using barges and tug boats. Geography/Maths/English How are you going to be traveling to and from Tower Bridge on your school trip? Set your pupils the challenge of working it out! Can you use public transport? Which buses or trains will get you from school to Tower Bridge? What time do you need to leave? If you need do any walking, are there any landmarks you’ll walk past to help you find your way? Teacher note: Access to TFL journey planner website, maps of your local area and maps of central London would be helpful with this activity.
