It classifies the material and allots a permanent reference number to each item. The Sneyd Papers were at Keele Hall after the Second World War, when they were purchased by Mr Raymond Richards, of Gawswcrth, from Cci« Balph Sneyd (1863-1949), the family’ s last direct descendant. After adding the rescued papers to his collection Mr Richards placed the bulk of it in the John Rylands Library, on deposit. The University of Keele (then the University College of North Staffordshire) purchased most of the collection in 1957 and the Sneyd Papers therefore returned to Keele, where they are now housed in the University Library. From the time of the Civil War the accumulation lias had its ups and downs and damage in terms of actual losses (particularly in the map department) accounts for a noticeable imbalance. Over- the years fa irly extensive disturbance has resulted in fragmentation of the archive and the number of items listed in isolation is consequently high. It is possible that some items now incorporated with the family papers were collected by the Rev. Walter Sneyd (1809-88). One or two items which appear to be forgeries may have been produced by him, or they may have been sent to him by equally light-hearted antiquarian friends. As far as the personal correspondence is concerned the letters listed are those which survive singly or in numbers too small to ju stify separate calendaring. The bulk of the personal correspondence - to Ralph Sneyd (1793-1870) - w ill continue to be calendared. Except where quoted the spelling of the surname has been standardized. This l i s t omits a quantity of music (mostly of the nineteenth century), original watered curs end drawings, and some items of uncertain provenance. This material w ill be noted in supplementary lists* Lists /' of parts of the accumulation deposited by the family’ s local solicitors are available in the Search Room in the University Library.

    Industrial Heritage, Tourism and Old Industrial Buildings: Charting the Difficult Path from Redundancy to Heritage Attraction

    RESEARCH Cutting Edge 1997 Industrial heritage, tourism and old industrial buildings: charting the difficult path from redundancy to heritage attraction Rick Ball, Staffordshire University ISBN 0-85406-864-3 INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE, TOURISM AND OLD INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS: CHARTING THE DIFFICULT PATH FROM REDUNDANCY TO HERITAGE ATTRACTION Dr. Rick Ball Division of Geography Staffordshire University Leek Road Stoke-on-Trent ST4 2DF UK Abstract This exploratory paper considers the processes, problems and constraints involved in the transition of old industrial buildings, often those prone to vacancy, into heritage and tourism- linked uses. It discusses the heritage-property nexus with regard to industrial buildings, and builds an empirical picture of such relationships in a specific local property arena. The discussion is partly based on research projects completed in a number of localities within the British West Midlands. In particular, it draws on work on the evaluation of European Commission Community Initiatives in the West Midlands that have targetted tourism development, as well as on EPSRC funded research focused on vacant industrial buildings in Stoke-on-Trent. As such, in scene-setting style, a structure is developed for the evaluation of heritage-property links with the emphasis on the small number of specific local projects that have at least partly sought to bring buildings back into use with some, perhaps extensive, degree of heritage activity in mind. 1. Heritage and the property domain - some introductory comments The background to this paper is the apparent reassertion of industrial heritage as a flavour of tourism in the late 1990s (Goodall, 1996), a process pursued with vigour in the quest for the renaissance of the urban industrial economy (see Ball and Stobart, 1996).

LORO OF' THE MAtt0R OF HEATH HAVES STAFFORDSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL, EDUCATION DEPAR TMENT. IN APPRECIATION It is with regret that this booklet will be the last venture produced by the Staffordshire Authority under the inspiration and guidance of Mr. R.A. Lewis, as historical resource material for schools. Publi­ cation of the volume coincides with the retirement of Roy Lewis, a former Headteacher of Lydney School, Gloucestershire, after some 21 years of service in the Authority as County Inspector for History. When it was first known that he was thinking of a cessation of his Staffordshire duties, a quick count was made of our piles of his 'source books' . Our stock of his well known 'Green Books' (Local History Source Books) and 'Blue Books' (Teachers Guides and Study Books) totalled, amazingly, just over 100 volumes, ·a mountain of his­ torical source material ' made available for use within our schools - a notable achievement. Stimulating, authoritative and challenging, they have outlined our local historical heritage in clear and concise form, and have brought the local history of Staffordshire to the prominence that it justly deserves. These volumes have either been written by him or employed the willing­ ly volunteered services of Staffordshire teachers. Whatever the agency behind the pen it is obvious that forward planning, correlation of text and pictorial aspects, financial considerations for production runs, organisation of print-run time with a busy print room, distri­ bution of booklets throughout Staffordshire schools etc.

Summary and Conclusions 148 Appendix 1: Site Assessment Criteria Appendix 2: Site Assessment Proformas Appendix 3: Sector to Use Class Matrix Our reference NEWP3004 This report was commissioned in February 2020, and largely drafted over the period to June in line with the original programme for the Joint Local Plan. Discrete elements of the analysis, purely relating to supply, were completed beyond this point due to the limitations of lockdown. Executive Summary 1. This Economic Needs Assessment has been produced by Turley – alongside a separate but linked Housing Needs Assessment (HNA) – on behalf of Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council and Stoke-on-Trent City Council (‘the Councils’). It is intended to update their employment land evidence, last reviewed in 20151, and comply with national planning policy that has since been revised2. It provides evidence to inform the preparation of a Joint Local Plan, while establishing links with ambitious economic strategies that already exist to address local and wider priorities in this area. 2. It should be noted at the outset that while this report takes a long-term view guided by trends historically observed over a reasonable period of time, it has unfortunately been produced at a time of exceptional economic volatility.
