  • Collections Development Policy
    Collections Development Policy Harris Museum & Art Gallery Preston City Council Date approved: December 2016 Review date: By June 2018 The Harris collections development policy will be published and reviewed from time to time, currently every 12-18 months while the Re-Imagining the Harris project develops. Arts Council England will be notified of any changes to the collections development policy, and the implications of any such changes for the future of the Harris’ collections. 1. Relationship to other relevant policies/plans of the organisation: The Collections Development Policy should be read in the wider context of the Harris’ Documentation Policy and Documentation Plan, Collections Care and Conservation Policy, Access Policy Statement and the Harris Plan. 1.1. The Harris’ statement of purpose is: The Re-Imagining the Harris project builds on four key principles of creativity, democracy, animation and permeability to create an open, flexible and responsive cultural hub led by its communities and inspired by its collections. 1.2. Preston City Council will ensure that both acquisition and disposal are carried out openly and with transparency. 1.3. By definition, the Harris has a long-term purpose and holds collections in trust for the benefit of the public in relation to its stated objectives. Preston City Council therefore accepts the principle that sound curatorial reasons must be established before consideration is given to any acquisition to the collection, or the disposal of any items in the Harris’ collection. 1.4. Acquisitions outside the current stated policy will only be made in exceptional circumstances. 1.5. The Harris recognises its responsibility, when acquiring additions to its collections, to ensure that care of collections, documentation arrangements and use of collections will meet the requirements of the Museum Accreditation Standard.

  • An Aspect of Die-Production in the Middle Anglo-Saxon Period: the Use of Guidelines in the Cutting of Die-Faces
    M. ARCHIBALD: An aspect of die-production in the middle Anglo-Saxon..., VAMZ, 3. s., XLV (2012) 37 MARION ARCHIBALD Department of Coins and Medals The British Museum Great Russell Street London WC1B 3DG, UK [email protected] AN ASPECT OF DIE-PRODUCTION IN THE MIDDLE ANGLO-SAXON PERIOD: THE USE OF GUIDELINES IN THE CUTTING OF DIE-FACES UDK: 671.4.02(410.1)»08/09« Izvorni znanstveni rad Felicitating Ivan Mirnik on his seventieth birthday and congratulating him on his major contribution to numismatics, both as a scholar and as cura- tor of the Croatian national collection in the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb, I offer this contribution on a technical aspect of our subject which I know, from conversations during his many visits to London, is among his wide-ranging interests. Key words: England, Anglo-Saxon, coin, die, die-face, guidelines, dividers, York. Ključne riječi: Engleska, anglosaksonski, novac, punca, udarna površina punce, smjernice, prečke, York. Uniformity of appearance is desirable in a coinage to enable users to distinguish official issues from counterfeits on sight, and one of the ways to achieve this is to standardise as far as possible the methods of production. Contemporary references to ancient coining methods are virtually non-existent. The most informative account is by the South Arabian al-Hamdânî writ- ing in the first half of the tenth century (TOLL 1970/1971: 129-131; 1990). On the preparation of the die-face he mentions the use of dividers to fix the centre. For the Anglo-Saxon period in England there are no early written sources whatsoever on this subject and we have to rely on a 38 M.

With our surrounding local towns expanding by the day we have a responsibility to preserve the best of what we have whilst meeting the needs of current and future generations.” John Charlesworth, Brereton resident and Neighbourhood Plan team member. Page 1 Brereton Parish Neighbourhood Plan About This Document Brereton Parish Neighbourhood Plan Submission This document is the Submission version of the Brereton Parish Neighbourhood Plan (the Plan). Regulation 15 of The Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012, directs that the Submission of the Neighbourhood Plan is used to submit to Cheshire East Council for formal consideration and wider consultation. In January 2013 Brereton Parish Council began to develop the Neighbourhood Plan with the aim of shaping the vision for Brereton Parish until 2030. In consultations over the last two years the whole community has helped to develop the Plan. You have told us what changes you would like to see within the Parish and how we can enhance and preserve the things you value most. This Plan and its proposed polices reflects these community aspirations and views, and will significantly influence future planning decisions for new developments within the Parish. Reference to Supporting Documents is widely used throughout the Plan. These references, for example (ref. SD/B01), relate to the table of Supporting Documents listed in Appendix B. The Plan has been prepared by Brereton Parish Council, the qualifying body responsible for creating the Neighbourhood Plan.

  • North West Geography
    ISSN 1476-1580 North West Geography Volume 14, Number 1, 2014 North West Geography, Volume 14, 2014 12 Towards a robust deglacial chronology for the northwest England sector of the last British-Irish Ice Sheet Peter Wilson Environmental Sciences Research Institute, School of Environmental Sciences, University of Ulster, Coleraine, Co. Londonderry BT52 1SA. [email protected] Tom Lord Lower Winskill, Langcliffe, Settle, North Yorkshire BD24 9PZ. Abstract A number of absolute age determinations that provide a timeframe for the deglaciation of the last ice sheet in northwest England are reviewed. Some of the ages are probably too old and are therefore unreliable; some others have large associated uncertainties and are imprecise estimates for the loss of ice cover. Several ages are minimum ages for deglaciation because they record the timing of sedimentary events made possible by the removal of ice. The tightest age constraints on deglaciation are those derived from cosmogenic nuclide surface exposure dating but for some sites only a single age is available. Nevertheless together these age determinations indicate that between ~18 ka and ~17 ka northwest England began to emerge from its cover of glacial ice. Valley glaciers persisted in the Lake District until ~15 ka but had probably disappeared by 14.7 ka, or shortly after, when climate warmed abruptly. A more detailed picture of the style and rate of deglaciation is likely to come in the next few years as a result of the BRITICE-CHRONO project. Keywords Deglaciation, Last Glacial Maximum, British-Irish Ice Sheet, Dating techniques, Northwest England. Introduction Interest in the glacial geomorphology and sediment The idea that glaciers had previously existed in the British stratigraphy of northwest England extends back to the and Irish Isles was proposed by Swiss geologist Louis earliest days of glacial study.
