  • Character Overview Westminster Has 56 Designated Conservation Areas
    Westminster’s Conservation Areas - Character Overview Westminster has 56 designated conservation areas which cover over 76% of the City. These cover a diverse range of townscapes from all periods of the City’s development and their distinctive character reflects Westminster’s differing roles at the heart of national life and government, as a business and commercial centre, and as home to diverse residential communities. A significant number are more residential areas often dominated by Georgian and Victorian terraced housing but there are also conservation areas which are focused on enclaves of later housing development, including innovative post-war housing estates. Some of the conservation areas in south Westminster are dominated by government and institutional uses and in mixed central areas such as Soho and Marylebone, it is the historic layout and the dense urban character combined with the mix of uses which creates distinctive local character. Despite its dense urban character, however, more than a third of the City is open space and our Royal Parks are also designated conservation areas. Many of Westminster’s conservation areas have a high proportion of listed buildings and some contain townscape of more than local significance. Below provides a brief summary overview of the character of each of these areas and their designation dates. The conservation area audits and other documentation listed should be referred to for more detail on individual areas. 1. Adelphi The Adelphi takes its name from the 18th Century development of residential terraces by the Adam brothers and is located immediately to the south of the Strand. The southern boundary of the conservation area is the former shoreline of the Thames.

  • ENGLISH 'B' Class: XI Topic: Upon Westminster Bridge Date
    ST. LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL A JESUIT CHRISTIAN MINORITY INSTITUTION STUDY MATERIAL 2 Sub: ENGLISH ‘B’ Class: XI Topic: Upon Westminster Bridge Date: 23.06.2020 About The Poet: William Wordsworth (7 April 1770 – 23 April 1850) was an important poet of the Romantic Age in England and ranks as one of the greatest lyric poets in the history of English literature. His famous work ‘Lyrical Ballads’, which he worked on along with Samuel Taylor Coleridge, helped usher in the Romantic Movement in English Literature. He was an early leader of Romanticism, a literary movement that celebrated nature and concentrated on human emotions, in English poetry. Wordsworth introduced a new style of poetry using language that appealed to ordinary people. His poems often portrayed his love of nature as well as his inner thoughts and feelings. ‘The Prelude’, an autobiographical poem of his early years, is considered by many to be his masterpiece. Wordsworth was England's Poet Laureate from 1843 until his death in 1850. Summary Of The Poem: The first eight lines praise the beauty of London in the early morning light, as the poet stands on Westminster Bridge admiring the surrounding buildings. Wordsworth finds London a glorious sight in the early morning light, because the city has not yet woken up and these industrial processes and governmental activities have not yet begun. London is instead at one with nature. Indeed, the sun shines as beautifully on these structures as it does on the natural world. London seems to lie still, plunged into a calm state that is akin to a pleasant sleep.
