Places Visited Strawberry Hill House Strawberry Hill is Britain's finest example of Georgian Gothic Revival architecture and interior decoration. It began life in 1698 as a modest house, built by the coachmen of the Earl of Bradford. It was transformed into 'a little Gothic castle' by Horace Walpole, man of letters and the son of England's first Prime Minister. Between 1747 and 1792 Walpole doubled its size, creating Gothic rooms and adding towers and battlements in fulfilment of his dream. Further additions were made by the Countess Waldegrave in the 19th Century. http://www.strawberryhillhouse.org.uk/ Kew Palace Kew Palace has a rich history spanning nearly 400 years – from its modest beginnings as the home to a rich Flemish merchant, through to the arrival of the royal family and the ‘madness' of King George III. The first royal residents were George II, his wife Queen Caroline and their ever-growing family. However, Kew Palace will always be associated with the ‘madness’ of George III. The palace was purchased by the Georgian King as an annex to the White House (which sadly no longer stands) to accommodate his expanding family, and somewhere for George III to be shut away during his infamous episodes of ‘madness’. http://www.hrp.org.uk/KewPalace/stories/buildinghistory/ Coach House, Hammersmith With a changing exhibition programme throughout the year the William Morris museum features and explores different elements of Morris’s life and influence. They have a substantial collection of Morris & Co. items along with letters, designs and personal archives that, along with Morris’s own activities at Kelmscott House, drive their museum’s displays. http://www.williammorrissociety.org.uk/ Chelsea Old Church Chelsea Old Church, also known as All Saints, dates from 1157. Henry VIII is said to have married his third wife Jane Seymour in this ancient church, soon after the execution of Anne Boleyn, and before their state wedding. Severely damaged during World War II and rebuilt after 1945, the square-towered church does not look old from the outside. However, a glance at early prints reveals that the church is a carefully built replica of the medieval church destroyed in the Blitz. Carlyle’s House A Queen Anne Town House occupied by historian and 'Sage of Chelsea' Thomas Carlyle and his wife Jane from 1834-1881. A man of letters, Thomas Carlyle was famed for writing 'The French Revolution', the frst volume of which was accidentally destroyed at his friend John Stuart Mill's house after Carlyle loaned him the copy to read. Once the hub of Victorian literary society, Dickens, Tennyson and Ruskin were regular visitors to this home in Cheyne Row, named after the owner of the site, Lord Cheyne. The original Victorian interior remains as do the contents: books, furniture, portraits and personal relics. The house also has a peaceful walled garden. http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/carlyles-house/ Tate Britain London's Tate Britain holds the largest collection of British art in the world from 1500 to the present day. You'll find masterpieces by Gainsborough, Hogarth, Millais, Whistler, as well as outstanding modern and contemporary artists such as Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud and Damien Hirst. They also have the largest collection of works by JMW Turner in the world. http://www.tate.org.uk/visit/tate-britain Tate Modern Britain's national museum of modern and contemporary art from around the world is housed in the former Bankside Power Station on the banks of the Thames. The awe-inspiring Turbine Hall runs the length of the entire building and you can see amazing work for free by artists such as Cézanne, Bonnard, Matisse, Picasso, Rothko, Dalí, Pollock, Warhol and Bourgeois. http://www.tate.org.uk/visit/tate-modern Brunel Museum Paintings, models, prints and statues commemorate Isambard Kingdom Brunel's first and last projects: the oldest tunnel in the London Underground and SS Great Eastern, the first modern ocean liner. Access is available on advertised days to the neoclassical Grand Entrance Hall, a one-time banquet hall and underground fairground http://www.brunel-museum.org.uk/ Painted Hall, Greenwich The magnificent Painted Hall is recognised as the greatest piece of decorative painting in England and has been described as ‘the Sistine Chapel of the UK’. Designed by Sir Christopher Wren and Nicholas Hawksmoor, it was originally intended as an dining hall for the naval pensioners who lived there at the Royal Hospital for Seamen. https://www.ornc.org/paintedhall Thames Barrier The £500 million Thames Barrier, inaugurated by HM The Queen in 1984, spans 520 metres across the Thames at Woolwich Reach.

  • Building Fiction the Architecture of Narrative in Harry Potter
    Building Fiction The Architecture of Narrative in Harry Potter by Holland Young A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfi llment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Architecture in Engineering Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2015 © Holland Young 2015 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required fi nal revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. iii Abstract A person does not experience architecture as a purely physical construct. Lived space transcends mere materiality, as each individual experiences the world outside oneself through the unique fi lter of one’s own mind. In this way, architecture becomes subjective: infl uenced by the memories and imagination of its viewers, who use the physical realm as a take-off point from which to shape their own environments within the context of their respective psyches. Fictional architecture (or the architecture of narrative) uses this same concept to build the environments in fi lm and literature; although, in these cases, the cues given to an audience are images, sounds and/or words rather than three-dimensional space. The term ‘architecture of narrative’, as used in this thesis, refers to the architecture of books and fi lms which must rely on imaginary environments. This type of architecture is free of the strict rules and regulations which govern built form in the corporeal world; however, in order for an audience to relate to and engage with these imaginary environments, it must still employ boundaries which give the fi ctional realm stability, coherence and continuity.

  • Clapham Transport Users Group Response to Tfl/Dft Consultation
    Response to TfL/DfT Consultation On Devolving Control of London Rail Services to the Mayor of London is a voluntary stakeholder representative body advocating on behalf of public transport users in the Clapham area of South London. Our focus is on Tube, Bus, Dial-A-Ride and Rail services with full examination given to the inter-modal relationships between different forms of transport and the impact of transport with wider issues in Clapham and beyond. We have a valuable perspective to offer in our response to the consultation in that the suburban stations of Clapham High Street and Wandsworth Road were once run by British Rail and later Southern Trains but transferred to TfL as part of the extension of the London Overground East London Line Extension to Clapham Junction. The Clapham Transport Users Group was part of a ground of stakeholder bodies invited by TfL in 2006 to consider the development of a pan-London rail network under TfL control which led to the evolution of London Overground. Context Transport for London was set up in 2000 to replace London Transport and have steadily increased its control of public transport beyond the established areas of Bus and Tube. In 2006 TfL gained control of some orbital rail services previously operated by Silverlink Metro and re-branded as London Overground: it has steadily expanded to include all orbital rail services, an expansion of the East London Line and some suburban services out of Liverpool Street, including trains to Shenfield which will become Crossrail. In the political climate of greater devolution, the lack of control by TfL of London’s suburban rail network has been a significant anomaly, resulting in inconsistency of standards across rail networks not run by TfL.

  • London Assembly 24 June 2004
    Item 3 London Assembly 24 June 2004 Forty-Second Mayor’s Report to the Assembly Author: The Mayor This is my forty-second report to the Assembly, fulfilling my duty under Section 45 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999. It covers the period from 15 April – 11 June 2004. Transport Transport Operational Command Unit On 21 April I was delighted to open the new south-east area base of London’s unique transport policing initiative, the Transport Operational Command Unit (TOCU) under the command of the Metropolitan Police. TOCU remains the UK’s only dedicated unit that specialises in tackling crime and congestion on London’s bus network, as well as enforcing the law with regard to taxis and minicabs. The unit’s new base near Brixton will support 154 police officers and Traffic Police Community Support Officers (TPCSOs) to tackle crime and congestion in south-east London and covers the London Boroughs of Lambeth, Southwark, Lewisham, Greenwich, Bexley, Bromley and Croydon. Six months ago I announced an extra £25million funding for TOCU to recruit more officers and build on its successes. The unit now has more than 860 officers tackling crime on the bus network and cracking down on illegal minicab touts. It also has dedicated congestion teams in traffic hotspot areas keeping the buses and other traffic flowing freely. Londoners need to feel safe travelling around the city, especially at night. It is clear that TOCU is achieving results and making bus and cab travel a safer and more reliable experience. In addition, the final stage of licensing the minicab industry has now begun to make minicab travel in London safer.

What are the key problems with National Rail services in London that need to be addressed? They are less frequent than tubes and London Overground services, they end too early, there are insufficent staff members on stations. 2. What changes to the delivery, funding or governance of rail services in London should be considered? The concession arrangement granted to LOROL has transformed the services in question, proving that increasing the frequency and attractiveness of the service brings people off the roads and onto rail, or out of their homes to become economically active. 3.
