  • Catherine Harbor
    The Birth of the Music Business: Public Commercial Concerts In London 1660–1750 Catherine Harbor Volume 2 369 Appendix A. The Register of Music in London Newspapers 1660–1750 Database A.1 Database Design and Construction Initial database design decisions were dictated by the over-riding concern that the Register of Music in London Newspapers 1660–1750 should be a source-oriented rather than a model-oriented database, with the integrity of the source being preserved as far as possible (Denley, 1994: 33-43; Harvey and Press, 1996). The aim of the project was to store a large volume of data that had no obvious structure and to provide a comprehensive index to it that would serve both as a finding aid and as a database in its own right (Hartland and Harvey, 1989: 47-50). The result was what Harvey and Press (1996: 10) term an ‘electronic edition’ of the texts in the newspapers, together with an index or coding scheme that provided an easy way of retrieving the desired information. The stored data was divided into a text base with its physical and locational descriptors, and the index database. The design and specification of the database tables was undertaken by Charles Harvey and Philip Hartland using techniques of entity-relationship modelling and relational data analysis. These techniques are discussed in numerous texts on databases and database design and have been applied to purely historical data (Hartland and Harvey, 1989; Harvey and Press, 1996: 103-130). The Oracle relational database management system was used to create the tables, enter, store and manipulate the data.

    40 GREAT MARLBOROUGH S T. 1,800 TO 7,720 SQ FT OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY OFFICE SPACE AVAILABLE SUMMER 2017 W1 40 A HISTORIC BUILDING WITH A BOLD NEW SOUL 40 Great Marlborough Street is a prestigious mixed-use development on one of London’s most fascinating streets. A fashionable Soho address since the 18th century, Great Marlborough Street has hosted noted Londoners from Charles Darwin to architect Thomas Hardwick. Behind its handsome Victorian façade, the building is undergoing a modern transformation to provide five floors of the highest quality offices above three floors of retail space. The offices are available as a whole (c. 7,720 square feet) or floor by floor in four individual suites ranging in size from c. 1,883 to 2,068 square feet (the top two floors are combined into one duplex, ‘penthouse’ suite). The building is located in the heart of W1, near to the entrance to Carnaby Street and Liberty’s and served by three tube stations and Crossrail in 2018. 2 40 NATURAL ATTRIBUTES, MODERN TWIST The generous proportions of the building reflect those of Great Marlborough Street itself, a veritable boulevard by Soho standards. The fully-staffed reception benefits from impressive ceiling heights, also a feature of the first to third floor offices. The penthouse suite offers the contrast of a galleried mezzanine hanging within a double-height void. 3 40 The rear of the building is demolished and a new extension built, with a brickwork external façade incorporating aluminium double-glazed windows. The new extension allows all of the offices to benefit from south-facing external space – full-width terraces for the first and penthouse office suites and inset balconies for floors two and three.

  • Alist of Background Papers
    Retrofitting Soho - Final Report Background paper 1 - History and Character of Soho October 2008 Background paper 1 The History and Character of Soho Originally grazing farmland, in the 1530s the area of what is now Soho was taken by Henry VIII as a royal park. The name Soho first appears in the 17th century and is believed to derive from the old ‘soho!’ hunting call. It developed south of what is now Oxford Street, following the path of an ancient Roman road from Hampshire to Colchester and later turnpike linking London to Oxford.1 Soho covers two historic parishes – St Annes, east of Wardour Street and St James to the west. The St Annes section formed a single estate, the northern part of which was given in the 1660s by King Charles to the Earl of St Albans. After 1734, the freehold passed to the Earl of Portland. Meanwhile the southern part was sold by the Crown in parcels in the 16th and 17th century, with part going to the Earl of Leicester. This part of Soho was laid out according to a regular street pattern, with Soho Square as its main public space. The St James section was partly sold off by the Crown to landowners in 1560. The area was already divided up into a complicated pattern of leasehold and freehold properties based on the original field boundaries (see Figure BP 1.1). As a consequence, development was more piecemeal than in St Annes, with more pockets of regular developments based on the estates around Golden Square, Great Pulteney Street and Great Marlborough Street (Soho Conservation Area Audit, pp.8- 9).
