  • Commerce and Exchange Buildings Listing Selection Guide Summary
    Commerce and Exchange Buildings Listing Selection Guide Summary Historic England’s twenty listing selection guides help to define which historic buildings are likely to meet the relevant tests for national designation and be included on the National Heritage List for England. Listing has been in place since 1947 and operates under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. If a building is felt to meet the necessary standards, it is added to the List. This decision is taken by the Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). These selection guides were originally produced by English Heritage in 2011: slightly revised versions are now being published by its successor body, Historic England. The DCMS‘ Principles of Selection for Listing Buildings set out the over-arching criteria of special architectural or historic interest required for listing and the guides provide more detail of relevant considerations for determining such interest for particular building types. See https:// www.gov.uk/government/publications/principles-of-selection-for-listing-buildings. Each guide falls into two halves. The first defines the types of structures included in it, before going on to give a brisk overview of their characteristics and how these developed through time, with notice of the main architects and representative examples of buildings. The second half of the guide sets out the particular tests in terms of its architectural or historic interest a building has to meet if it is to be listed. A select bibliography gives suggestions for further reading. This guide treats commercial buildings. These range from small local shops to huge department stores, from corner pubs to Victorian ‘gin palaces’, from simple sets of chambers to huge speculative office blocks.

  • The Smithfield Gazette
    THE SMITHFIELD GAZETTE EDITION 164 April 2018 REMEMBERING THE POULTRY MARKET FIRE Early on 23 January 1958 a fire broke out in the basement of the old Poultry Market building at Smithfield Market. It was to be one of the worst fires London had seen since the Blitz. The old Poultry Market was similar in style to the two remaining Victorian buildings – it was also designed by Sir Horace Jones and opened in 1875. In a moving ceremony held in Grand Avenue exactly sixty years after the fire started, the two firefighters who died were remembered by the unveiling of one of the Fire Brigades Union’s new red plaques. Wreaths were laid by Matt Wrack, General Secretary of the Fire Brigades Union, Greg Lawrence, Chairman of the Smithfield Market Tenants’ Association and Mark Sherlock, Superintendent of Smithfield Market. Serving and retired firefighters attended as well as Market tenants and representatives of the City of London. Two fire engines were also there. The fire burned for three days in the two and a half acre basement, which was full of crates of poultry as well as being lined with wooden match boarding which had become soaked with fat over a period of years – this meant that the fire spread exceptionally quickly. Reports of the time state that by dawn the stalls and market contents had been destroyed, the roof had collapsed and what was left was a blackened shell enclosing a twisted heap of ironwork and broken masonry. Flames 100 feet high lit the night sky. Firefighters from Clerkenwell fire station were the first to arrive on the scene, including Station Officer Jack Fourt-Wells, aged 46, and Firefighter Richard Stocking, 31, the two who lost their lives.
