  • 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.

  • 1 Draft Paper Elisabete Mendes Silva Polytechnic Institute of Bragança
    Draft paper Elisabete Mendes Silva Polytechnic Institute of Bragança-Portugal University of Lisbon Centre for English Studies, Faculty of Arts and Humanities, Portugal [email protected] Power, cosmopolitanism and socio-spatial division in the commercial arena in Victorian and Edwardian London The developments of the English Revolution and of the British Empire expedited commerce and transformed the social and cultural status quo of Britain and the world. More specifically in London, the metropolis of the country, in the eighteenth century, there was already a sheer number of retail shops that would set forth an urban world of commerce and consumerism. Magnificent and wide-ranging shops served householders with commodities that mesmerized consumers, giving way to new traditions within the commercial and social fabric of London. Therefore, going shopping during the Victorian Age became mandatory in the middle and upper classes‟ social agendas. Harrods Department store opens in 1864, adding new elements to retailing by providing a sole space with a myriad of different commodities. In 1909, Gordon Selfridge opens Selfridges, transforming the concept of urban commerce by imposing a more cosmopolitan outlook in the commercial arena. Within this context, I intend to focus primarily on two of the largest department stores, Harrods and Selfridges, drawing attention to the way these two spaces were perceived when they first opened to the public and the effect they had in the city of London and in its people. I shall discuss how these department stores rendered space for social inclusion and exclusion, gender and race under the spell of the Victorian ethos, national conservatism and imperialism.

  • Shops Aug 2012
    1 SHOPS Shops Among London’s main attractions are the long streets full of shops, some of which are famous throughout the world. All of those listed here were visited during 2011. Our survey teams found that access to shops has improved considerably in recent years. In particular there are fewer split levels, more accessible toilets, and more BCF. However, few have textphone details on their website and there are still a small number with unexpected split levels. Importantly, attitudes have changed, and staff members are more often understanding of special needs than was the case ten years ago. In this chapter we have concentrated mainly on the Oxford Street/Regent Street area, as well as including famous shops like Harrods, Harvey Nichols, Peter Jones and Fortnum and Mason. We have also included a few shops on Kensington High Street, and around Victoria. We have only visited and described a tiny percentage of London’s shops, so please do not be limited by listings in this section. Nearly all the big shops we have described have accessible toilets. Access is generally good, although the majority of the big stores have central escalators. The lifts are less obvious and may even be slightly difficult to find. Signage is highly variable. Most big department stores have a store guide/listing near the main entrance, or at the bottom of escalators, but these do not normally take account of access issues. A few have printed plans of the layout of each floor (which may be downloadable from their website), but these aren’t always very clear or accurate.

  • Meyer Bergman Shops for More Stores in Queensway
    Share Meyer Bergman shops for more stores in Queensway 7 May 2014 | By Kat Spybey Meyer Bergman has taken a further chunk of retail space on Queensway as it looks to ramp up its exposure to the west London suburb. The fund manager is understood to have agreed a deal to buy a retail parade consisting of 27 shops on Queensway, which front onto its recently acquired Whiteleys Shopping Centre, for around £50m. The assets were bought by Meyer Bergman, in conjunction with Warren Todd, from a private Asian family. The shops, which extend from 114-186 Queensway, comprise around 90,000 sq ft of lettable space and are leased to retailers including Boots, Santander Bank, Specsavers, The Post Office, Superdrug and Patisserie Valerie. It is understood that Meyer Bergman will look to revamp the retail offering across the parade, bringing in higher-end retailers, and could also use the space to accommodate retailers moving out of Whiteleys while the scheme is repositioned. It is thought property investor Johnny Sandelson, working with a Brunei family investor, could take a minority stake in the parade in the future. Sandelson is currently working on a wider revamp of the Queensway retail and leisure offer. Investors are seeking to buy into the Queensway retail market in a bid to capitalise on its rejuvenation after it was hit by the opening of Westfield London and the continued strength of the West End retail district. Property Week revealed in September last year that Meyer Bergman and Warren Todd – who owns a number of properties across Notting Hill and Holland Park – had bought the 300,000 sq ft, grade II-listed Whiteleys Shopping Centre for around £140m.
