This technical appendix will identify and assess the heritage value1 of all heritage assets within a 200m study area and is used to support the recommendations made in Chapter 14: Historic Environment of ES Volume 1 Main Statement. This technical appendix is a description of the baseline only and the impacts and effects of the BEE are dealt with in Chapter 14: Historic Environment of ES Volume 1 Main Statement and ES Volume 2 Technical Appendix Q2: Impact Assessment Table. 1.1.2 The archaeological and heritage constraints are illustrated in drawing MMD-300207-HS30- DRA-0000-0001-0004 in ES Volume 2 Technical Appendix A: EIA Drawings. 1.2 Legislation and Planning Policy European European Convention on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage (Revised) Treaty no.143 , ratified 2001 1.2.1 The European Convention for the Protection and Management of the Archaeological Heritage promotes high standards for archaeological work. It states that procedures should be put in place to ensure that archaeological excavation and other archaeological activities are properly authorised and supervised to ensure archaeology is properly recorded and protected. It also states that destructive techniques, such as excavation, are only carried out by qualified, specially authorised people (Article 3). Current English planning policy (as set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF)) follows the steps set out in Article 5 of the Convention for the protection and recording of archaeology during development. Convention for the Protection of Architectural Heritage of Europe, Treaty no.121, ratified 1998 1.2.2 This Convention outlines that each country takes statutory measures to protect architectural heritage (Article 3) and that appropriate procedures are put in place ensure that any demolition, alteration or scheme affecting the protected building or structures is properly authorised and supervised (Article 4). Current English planning policy (as set out in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF)) follows the steps set out in Article 10 of the Convention for the protection and recording of architectural heritage during development. 1 Please note that national and local policy and guidance refers to “heritage significance”. To prevent confusion with EIA terminology of “significance of effect” this report will use the term “heritage value” in place of “heritage significance” unless directly quoting from policy or guidance. The definition of “heritage significance” as defined in the National Planning Policy Framework will be applied to “heritage value” in the context of this report. 8 MMD/300207/HS30/DOC/0000/1041 B August 2016 http://pims01/pims/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objId=2091112192&objAction=browse&viewType=1 Birmingham Eastside Extension Historic Environment Technical Information National legislation 1.2.3 The law in England regarding ancient monuments, archaeological areas, listed buildings and conservation areas are covered by two acts: Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979; and Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Planning policy National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), 2012 1.2.4 NPPF came into effect in March 2012 and this legislation provides a framework for the management of the historic environment. Of particular relevance to the BEE are the following policies: 1.2.5 "128. In determining applications, local planning authorities should require an applicant to describe the significance of any heritage assets affected, including any contribution made by their setting. The level of detail should be proportionate to the assets' importance and no more than is sufficient to understand the potential impact of the proposal on their significance. As a minimum the relevant historic environment record should have been consulted and the heritage assets assessed using appropriate expertise where necessary. Where a site on which development is proposed includes or has the potential to include heritage assets with archaeological interest, local planning authorities should require developers to submit an appropriate desk-based assessment and, where necessary, a field evaluation." 1.2.6 "129. Local planning authorities should identify and assess the particular significance of any heritage asset that may be affected by a proposal (including by development affecting the setting of a heritage asset) taking account of the available evidence and any necessary expertise. They should take this assessment into account when considering the impact of a proposal on a heritage asset, to avoid or minimise conflict between the heritage asset's conservation and any aspect of the proposal." 1.2.7 “131. In determining planning applications, local planning authorities should take account of: the desirability of sustaining and enhancing the significance of heritage assets and putting them to viable uses consistent with their conservation; the positive contribution that conservation of heritage assets can make to sustainable communities including their economic vitality; and the desirability of new development making a positive contribution to local character and distinctiveness.” 1.2.8 “132. When considering the impact of a proposed development on the significance of a designated heritage asset, great weight should be given to the asset’s conservation. The more important the asset, the greater the weight should be. Significance can be harmed or 9 MMD/300207/HS30/DOC/0000/1041 B August 2016 http://pims01/pims/llisapi.dll?func=ll&objId=2091112192&objAction=browse&viewType=1 Birmingham Eastside Extension Historic Environment Technical Information lost through alteration or destruction of the heritage asset or development within its setting. As heritage assets are irreplaceable, any harm or loss should require clear and convincing justification. Substantial harm to or loss of a grade II listed building, park or garden should be exceptional. Substantial harm to or loss of designated heritage assets of the highest significance, notably scheduled monuments, protected wreck sites, battlefields, grade I and II* listed buildings, grade I and II* registered parks and gardens, and World Heritage Sites, should be wholly exceptional.” 1.2.9 “133. Where a proposed development will lead to substantial harm to or total loss of significance of a designated heritage asset, local planning authorities should refuse consent, unless it can be demonstrated that the substantial harm or loss is necessary to achieve substantial public benefits that outweigh that harm or loss, or all of the following apply: the nature of the heritage asset prevents all reasonable uses of the site; and no viable use of the heritage asset itself can be found in the medium term through appropriate marketing that will enable its conservation; and conservation by grant-funding or some form of charitable or public ownership is demonstrably not possible; and the harm or loss is outweighed by the benefit of bringing the site back into use.” 1.2.10 “134.

    SOHO DEPICTED: PRINTS, DRAWINGS AND WATERCOLOURS OF MATTHEW BOULTON, HIS MANUFACTORY AND ESTATE, 1760-1809 by VALERIE ANN LOGGIE A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History of Art College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham January 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This thesis explores the ways in which the industrialist Matthew Boulton (1728-1809) used images of his manufactory and of himself to help develop what would now be considered a ‘brand’. The argument draws heavily on archival research into the commissioning process, authorship and reception of these depictions. Such information is rarely available when studying prints and allows consideration of these images in a new light but also contributes to a wider debate on British eighteenth-century print culture. The first chapter argues that Boulton used images to convey messages about the output of his businesses, to draw together a diverse range of products and associate them with one site. Chapter two explores the setting of the manufactory and the surrounding estate, outlining Boulton’s motivation for creating the parkland and considering the ways in which it was depicted.

  • Birmingham's Evangelical Free Churches and The
    BIRMINGHAM’S EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCHES AND THE FIRST WORLD WAR by ANDY VAIL A Thesis Submitted to The University of Birmingham For the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY School of History & Cultures College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham 2019 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This thesis demonstrates that the First World War did not have a major long-term impact on the evangelical free churches of Birmingham. Whilst many members were killed in the conflict, and local church auxiliaries were disrupted, once the participants – civil and military – returned, the work and mission of the churches mostly continued as they had before the conflict, the exception being the Adult School movement, which had been in decline prior to the conflict. It reveals impacts on local church life, including new opportunities for women amongst the Baptist and Congregational churches where they began to serve as deacons. The advent of conscription forced church members to personally face the issue as to whether as Christians they could in conscience bear arms. The conflict also speeded ecumenical co-operation nationally, in areas such as recognition of chaplains, and locally, in organising local prayer meetings and commemorations.
