  • Battersea Area Guide
    Battersea Area Guide Living in Battersea and Nine Elms Battersea is in the London Borough of Wandsworth and stands on the south bank of the River Thames, spanning from Fairfield in the west to Queenstown in the east. The area is conveniently located just 3 miles from Charing Cross and easily accessible from most parts of Central London. The skyline is dominated by Battersea Power Station and its four distinctive chimneys, visible from both land and water, making it one of London’s most famous landmarks. Battersea’s most famous attractions have been here for more than a century. The legendary Battersea Dogs and Cats Home still finds new families for abandoned pets, and Battersea Park, which opened in 1858, guarantees a wonderful day out. Today Battersea is a relatively affluent neighbourhood with wine bars and many independent and unique shops - Northcote Road once being voted London’s second favourite shopping street. The SW11 Literary Festival showcases the best of Battersea’s literary talents and the famous New Covent Garden Market keeps many of London’s restaurants supplied with fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers. Nine Elms is Europe’s largest regeneration zone and, according the mayor of London, the ‘most important urban renewal programme’ to date. Three and half times larger than the Canary Wharf finance district, the future of Nine Elms, once a rundown industrial district, is exciting with two new underground stations planned for completion by 2020 linking up with the northern line at Vauxhall and providing excellent transport links to the City, Central London and the West End.

  • Chapter 5: Parks and Open Spaces
    Draft CHAPTER 5 Parks and Open Spaces Before it became intensively developed for housing, the parish of Battersea was mostly open agricultural land governed by differing types of tenure (Ill. 5.1). Perhaps a third of it was in some form of common tenure. It was from these areas that the larger public open spaces described in this chapter— Battersea Park, Clapham Common and Wandsworth Common—have come down in the guise familiar today. The two commons, as their names imply, occupied common land, governed by laws defining the rights of the lords of the manor and copyholders or commoners. Mainly they provided rough grazing and were exploited for brushwood and gravel. In addition there was the large expanse known as Battersea Common Field or Fields, located on more fertile ground closer to the river and subject to flooding. This was not full common land in the same sense as the two commons. It was owned freehold by the lord of the manor, leased or tenanted largely in strips, and intensively cultivated for arable farming or market gardening. ‘Lammas rights’ of turning out livestock over the fields for certain weeks of the year were held by local parishioners, while entertainment venues had become an established feature of its riverside sector by 1800. It was here that Battersea Park was created. The perceived public interest in both types of tenure led eventually to the emergence of Battersea’s three great open spaces. But they evolved in different ways. Battersea Park came into being by a series of accidents. After endeavouring to enclose Battersea Fields and failing, the Spencers as lords of Survey of London © English Heritage 2013 1 Draft the manor decided in the 1830s to sell the area in lots.

  • Records of Gardening, Parks and Open Spaces in LMA
    RESEARCH GUIDE 56 - Records of gardening, parks and open spaces in LMA CONTENTS Introduction Private Gardens Public Gardens Institutional gardens Amateur Gardens Council records Prints, maps and photographs Finding aids Records Inherited records Introduction London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) holds a variety of records relating to gardening and horticulture in the Greater London area. Foremost amongst these are the records of the Worshipful Company of Gardeners, one of the City Livery Companies. There is a reference to an organisation of gardeners as early as 1345. By the time of the granting of the Company's first charter in 1605, it was fully in control of its trade. By the mid 19th century the Company was in abeyance, but it revived in the 1890s. It received its grant of arms in 1905. In recent years, the Company has been notable for running a number of campaigns and competitions in the City of London. It also continues the tradition of providing bouquets and flowers for members of the Royal family and for Royal occasions. The archives held at LMA date from 1605, but early membership records are patchy, and court minutes do not begin until the second half of the 18th century. The archive is not large, but it is notable for a series of scrapbooks recording the history of the company since 1345, begun by the company in 1934 and continuing to the present day. The company's collection of printed books is deposited at Guildhall Library, Aldermanbury, London EC2V 7HH. Private Gardens Among the early records of horticulture are seventeenth-century probate inventories of gardeners in Westminster and Middlesex in the records of the church courts.

  • British Birds |
    BRITISH BIRDS NUMBER 12, VOL. XLV, DECEMBER, 1952. THE BIRDS OF INNER LONDON, 1900-1950. BY S. CRAMP AND W. G. TF.AGLE. IN 1929 A. Holte Macpherson published A List of the Birds of Inner London (antea, vol. xxii, 222-44) outlining the history and status of the birds occurring in an oblong area with boundaries running 4 miles east and west and z\ miles north and south ot Charing Cross. Since then an account, necessarily restricted, has been given annually in this magazine (A. Holte Macpherson 1930-41, G. Carmichael Low and Miss M. S. van Oostveen 1942 and 1946, G. Carmichael Low 1943-45, Miss M. S. van Oostveen 1947, C. B. Ashby 1948-49 and W. G. Teagle 1950). This paper summarizes the information available on the birds of this major urban area for the period 1900-50, paying particular attention to the changes in numbers and distribution of the more important species, many of which are striking. The boundaries of Inner London, although purely artificial, enclose an area of ecological significance, including most of the densely populated core of the capital, all the central parks (except for a small portion of Victoria Park) and some districts in the west and north containing houses with large gardens. It is rich in water, with a long stretch of the Thames, and lakes in many of the parks. The reservoirs and the larger, wilder open spaces, such as Hampstead Heath and Wimbledon Common, are excluded. To survive in such an area a species must be able to adapt itself to living in close proximity with man.

    Victoria Park Victoria Park Conservation Area 1. Character Appraisal 2. Management Guidelines London Borough of Tower Hamlets Adopted by Cabinet: 4th November 2009 Link to and adoption of Addendum 26 th July 2016 Victoria Park Conservation Area Page 1 of 19 Victoria Park Introduction Conservation Areas are parts of our local environment with special architectural or historic qualities. They are created by the Council, in consultation with the local community, to preserve and enhance the specific character of these areas for everybody. This guide has been prepared for the following purposes: ° To comply with the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Section 69(1) states that a conservation area is “an area of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance” ° To provide a detailed appraisal of the area’s architectural and historic character. ° To provide an overview of planning policy and propose management guidelines on how this character should be preserved and enhanced in the context of appropriate ongoing change. Victoria Park Conservation Area Page 2 of 19 Victoria Park Victoria Park Conservation Area Page 3 of 19 Victoria Park 1. Character Appraisal Overview The Victoria Park Conservation Area was designated in March 1977, altered October 2008 to make way for the Regent’s Canal Conservation Area and to expand Driffield Road Conservation Area. The Conservation Area includes the listed park, the formal axial road pattern to the south west and the Victorian terraces, many of which are listed. Most of the south-eastern park boundary is clearly defined by the Hertford Union Canal and includes a narrow built up strip on the south side of the canal.

  • Battersea Park Action Group Newsletter
    BATTERSEA PARK ACTION GROUP NEWSLETTER 24th September 2020 Volume 5 No. 2 In this Issue Resignations 2 Planning Application for Antennae in Park 2-3 Evolution Building: Our Park? Or Theirs? 4 Precarious Parks. Dr. Andrew Smith 4-7 Winterville Returning? 7-8 Cats, Cats & 88 Keys 9 Noise Line 10 Victoria Tower Gardens: Update 11-12 Organisations: 13-14 Open Spaces Society/Living Streets etc 1 NEWS Two Enable Officers have recently resigned. Jack Adams, who was probably due for retirement anyway, and Simon Ingyon, the Executive Director. The latter resignation is a surprise, since he was very helpful and supportive, and had only been in post a relatively short while. Maybe he has a better job? PLANNING APPLICATION 2020/2853 Proposal: Installation of 20m telecommunications pole, 6 x antennas, 2 x GPS modules, 9 x ERSs on headframe, 3 x RRUs, 5 x equipment cabinets and ancillary This was another surprise, since we are registered to receive notices of planning applications for matters in the Park and surrounding it. The Secretary had received nothing, and only received the information thanks to Frances Ratcliffe of the Friends. Thus, there was no time to email any of you, but just enough time to submit an objection within 2 hours of the deadline – which we understand had been altered to an earlier date, although the application states 12th October. However, since it also says the application is still open and accepting comments, could we ask you to submit something? Here is the link, but you may need to get in quick.
