CONSULTATION 5.1 The following were consulted on the application: - The Deputy Governor HM Tower of London; English Heritage; Commission on Architecture and Built Environment; Ancient Monuments Society; Tower Hill Improvement Trust; City of London Corporation; Greater London Authority and Transport for London - Street Management; Port of London Authority; Historic Royal Palaces; Pool of London Partnerships and London Metropolitan University; the Borough Conservation, Highways Development and Environmental Health Officers. The applications were advertised in East End Life issue dated 18th November 2002. The following responses have been received: - (1.1) English Heritage - Historic Buildings Advisor: No objections in principle to the redevelopment and replacement of the existing buildings with a new, high quality office building. Incorporation of the existing Underground Station within the new development and proposed improvements to adjoining public spaces and circulation routes at this important point of access to the Tower of London were welcomed. It was noted that the application site relates to the wider setting of the Tower of London, as well as forming part of the setting of the nearby listed buildings in Trinity Square. With regard to its immediate context, there are no objections to the height and form of the proposed building subject to the height being acceptable in terms of the suggested height limits around the Tower World Heritage Site. In principle, the combination of natural stone cladding and dark finished metalwork in a deeply layered facade was considered sympathetic to the character of the adjoining Trinity House and the Port of London Authority buildings. However, reservations were expressed regarding the design of the central bay of the west elevation facing Trinity Square and it is considered that this could be reconsidered in the course of the further detailed design development and could be reserved by Condition of any approval. The introduction of the new public walkway on the east side of the new building, alongside the Roman Wall is welcomed as a positive benefit to the surrounding area. The proposed improvements to the change of levels in front of the station by introduction of a ramped access in addition to steps is also welcomed. However the location of steps immediately in front of the proposed tourist information office could be a potential hazard and detailed proposals for this area including improvements to the landscaping of Wakefield Gardens should be reserved by Condition of any approval. (1.2) English Heritage - The Inspector of Ancient Monuments: Satisfaction expressed about the general direction of the designs. Welcomes freeing of the stretch of the scheduled City Wall at rear of the site and its exposure to public view with a new walkway established alongside it. Both demolition of the existing building and construction of any new development on the site would need Scheduled Ancient Monument Consent in that both would involve works directly affecting the monument. Detailed Conditions relating to methods for demolition of the existing building as they affect the monument, the protection of the monument during works of demolition and construction, conservation of the monument and details of the proposed design as it affects the monument and its immediate setting would be imposed on any Consent. (1.3) English Heritage - The Archaeology Advisor of the Greater London Archaeology Advisory Service: Results of test pit evaluation carried out by Museum of London Archaeology Service demonstrated that Roman stratigraphy survives beneath the existing basements notwithstanding some disturbance by 19th century cellars. Detailed archaeological works, probably in the form of an area excavation will be required

  • Pepys Greenwich Walk
    Samuel Pepys’ Walk through the eastern City of London and Greenwich Distance = 5 miles (8 km) Estimated duration = 3 – 4 hours not including the river trip to Greenwich Nearest underground stations: This is planned to start from the Monument underground station, but could be joined at several other places including Aldgate or Tower Hill underground stations. You can do this Walk on any day of the week, but my recommendation would be to do the first part on a Wednesday or a Thursday because there may be free lunchtime classical recitals in one of the churches that are on the route. The quietest time would be at the weekend because the main part of this Walk takes place in the heart of the business district of London, which is almost empty at that time. However this does mean that many places will be closed including ironically the churches as well as most of the pubs and Seething Lane Garden. It’s a good idea to buy a one-day bus pass or travel card if you don’t already have one, so that you needn’t walk the whole route but can jump on and off any bus going in your direction. This is based around the Pepys Diary website at www.pepysdiary.com and your photographs could be added to the Pepys group collection here: www.flickr.com/groups/pepysdiary. And if you aren't in London at present, perhaps you'd like to attempt a "virtual tour" through the hyperlinks, or alternatively explore London via google streetview, the various BBC London webcams or these ones, which are much more comprehensive.
