C53A Time Limit - Listed Building Consent Site and surroundings Forty Hall is a grade I listed building situated within Forty Hill and Bulls Cross Conservation Area, the Green Belt and Area of Special Character. It is also included on the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. The Forty Hall site also contains a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The toilet block is a modern incursion situated to the east side of the courtyard and to the rear of Forty Hall itself. Proposal Permission is sought for the refurbishment of the public toilets with alterations to the approaches to the entrance doors to provide ease of access to ambulant/wheel chair users as part of the Disability Discrimination Act requirements 1995. It is also proposed to provide a new access through the courtyard wall to gain access to the toilet block directly from the courtyard/café area (which has recently been refurbished) as well as from the park. This necessitates breaking through the wall to form a gated opening with a design to respect the main courtyard screen gates. Relevant planning history There are a number of planning applications relating to Forty Hall but none relevant to this application. Consultation Public The Forty Hill and Bulls Cross Study group were consulted and raised the following observations on the modified scheme: - • Request careful consideration to selection and use of materials especially path surfaces. • Rationale for gate design is unclear • Group concerned that details in respect of signage and lighting have not been specified. • Group suggest conditions be placed on development in respect of restricting times of use, maintaining security and safety and restricting unauthorised use of the new access. The application was advertised as development affecting a listed building in the Forty Hill Conservation Area. Internal None External English Heritage raises no objections to the internal alterations to the toilets, or the changes to the doorway, providing the door is of high quality. No objection to the principle of ramped access, again high quality materials to be used. Concerned with the insertion of 2 doorways through the wall due to loss of original fabric and the changes to the crenellations and would not support the opening nearest the female WC. Suggest extending the ramp further between the door to the accessible WC and that to the female WC (Outside the courtyard) which would enable equal access to Male, Female and the accessible WC by utilising the one proposed opening nearest the male WC.

    Transport for London.. Lea Valley Walk. Section 1 of 6. Station Road to Wharf Road. Section start: Towpath off A121 Station Road (Waltham Cross). Nearest stations Waltham Cross . to start: Section finish: Wharf Road (Ponders End). Nearest stations Ponders End . to finish: Section distance: 3.5 miles (5.5 kilometres). Introduction. The Lea Valley Walk begins at the River Lea Navigation, close to Waltham Town Lock and Waltham Abbey, with the first section taking walkers down to Ponders End, a distance of three and a half miles. Highlights before the start of the walk include Waltham Abbey, Cornmill Meadows and the Royal Gunpowder Mills and the Lee Valley White Water Centre. On the route itself walkers can also visit Rammey Marsh and Myddleton House. The route is clearly marked and is one linear route running alongside the River Lea. There are plenty of opportunities along the route to take in a break with several picnic spots. National Rail services operate from Ponders End station, or walkers can continue along to Tottenham Hale. Continues on next page Directions. From Waltham Cross station turn right out of the station, up the steps and right onto Eleanor Cross Road. After half a mile - on your left - you pass the entrance to the new Lee Valley White Water Centre (built for the London 2012 Olympics). Continue on the main road and shortly after the traffic lights turn right onto the towpath which can be found just before Station Road becomes Highbridge Street. To reach the town of Waltham Abbey continue along Highbridge Street. Here you can visit Waltham Abbey church (approximately 10 minutes walk away), Cornmill Meadows and the Royal Gunpowder Mills.
  • “Peelers Progress”

    “Peelers Progress”

    “PEELERS PROGRESS” Policing Waltham Abbey since 1840 by Bryn Elliott Foreword The police in Waltham Abbey are not a unique band of men and women in themselves. The station buildings occupied by the police in the locality were never structures considered in the forefront of architectural style. Although there were a few well known cases, no mind shattering, world famous crimes were ever said to have taken place in the area, and yet...... Here is a story of one relatively insignificant police station situated for 160 years on the outer edges of the Metropolitan Police District. It may be a surprise to learn that from the pages of this story that some well known cases were indeed enacted within its jurisdiction, and that the officers serving there were, on occasion, embroiled in famous events outside of the town. In writing this history of Waltham Abbey police officers, and the buildings in which they served, I have attempted to refrain from setting down the whole history of local law and order. Brief mention is made of the arrangement in force prior to the arrival of the Metropolitan Police in the area, hopefully in context. Other than those few instances I have avoided the period that would inevitably include such well known figures as the highwaymen Dick Turpin and the Gregory Gang, who included large swathes of Epping Forest in their plundering forays. Highwaymen have strong connections with the area during the 18th Century, but this is primarily the story of the modern police and the locality they served. It is unfortunate that few of the 19th Century local historians thought fit to make more than a passing mention of their local police force.

The site has never been developed. There is only a very low potential for any remains of national importance to be present, but a moderate potential for remains of local interest. Golf course construction would involve some truncation of the archaeologically relevant levels. It is anticipated that further information on the archaeological potential of the site will be required from field observations (trial trenching) in order to devise a mitigation strategy if required.

  • Queen Mary and King George V Emergency Draw Down Schemes

    Queen Mary and King George V Emergency Draw Down Schemes

    Queen Mary and King George V Emergency Draw Down Schemes BRYN PHILPOTT, Thames Water Utilities Ltd YINKA OYEYEMI, Jacobs UK Ltd JOHN SAWYER, Jacobs UK Ltd SYNOPSIS. Thames Water owns a large number of non-impounding reservoirs. These have unusually long embankments with narrow clay cores and gravel shoulders, which could be susceptible to piping failure and erosion. They are typically located in urban areas. Thames Water has therefore reviewed its policy regarding emergency drawdown capacity and started an improvement programme on the most critical reservoirs. The Queen Mary and King George V reservoirs are two of these critical non-impounding reservoirs with continuous embankment lengths of 6.3km and 6.5km and storage volumes of 30 Mm 3 and 12 Mm 3 respectively. Following the statutory inspection of these reservoirs, a safety recommendation was made which required a significant increase to the existing emergency draw down capacity of each reservoir. This required Queen Mary reservoir to achieve 0.75 metre emergency draw down from top water level within 24hrs and King George V reservoir to achieve 1m draw down in 24hrs. Studies instigated as a result looked at various options of achieving the draw down with the final solution involving the design and construction of twin siphon pipes fitted with submerged discharge valves. It is believed that a number of UK reservoirs may require additional emergency draw down capacity as measures in the interest of safety, as defined within the terms of the Reservoirs Act 1975, over the next few years. This paper looks at the options considered before arriving at the final solution.
