Lumiere London Thursday 18 – Sunday 21 January 2018 Operational Plans for the West End Lumiere London Thursday 18 – Sunday 21 January 2018 Operational plans for the West End Lumiere London is a free four-night light festival, commissioned by the Mayor of London, which will be coming to the West End for the second time in January. The 2018 edition has an expanded footprint with a stunning programme of more than forty outdoor light installations stretching from Kingʼs Cross through Fitzrovia and the West End, to Westminster, Victoria, South Bank and Waterloo. In the West End, there will be festival installations in Oxford Circus, Regent Street, St Jamesʼs, Mayfair, Leicester Square, Covent Garden, Piccadilly, Chinatown, Westminster Abbey and Trafalgar Square. The event will take place over four evenings from Thursday 18 - Sunday 21 January 2018 and run from 17:30 – 22.30 each night. Produced by arts charity and creative producer Artichoke and commissioned by the Mayor of London, in 2016 the festival attracted 1.3 million visitors over four nights. It offers a fantastic opportunity to raise the profile of London as a cultural destination and world city to rival all other global destinations and to bring extra footfall to local businesses at a quieter time of year. We are working closely with the Greater London Authority, Westminster City Council, The Crown Estate, Regent Street Association, Heart of London Business Alliance as well as the Metropolitan Police and Transport for London to minimise the impact on the local area and ensure that the festival runs as smoothly as possible for everyone. In the below tables, we have outlined how Lumiere London may affect your business in the following ways: • Road transport and road closures • Some bus journeys will be diverted or stop short of their destination • Tube stations close to the event area will be busier than usual More details about the event, including frequently asked questions and information on closures relating to the festival can also be found at www.visitlondon.com/Lumiere Festival artworks and locations London’s West End • W4, St James’s Church, Jermyn Street: Harmonic Portal by Chris Plant • W7, Royal Academy Courtyard: Love Motion by Rhys Coren • W8, Hotel Café Royal (viewed from Piccadilly Circus): Voyage by Camille Gross and Leslie Epsztein • W9, 103 Regent Street: Frictions by Mader Wiermann Fitzrovia • F1, Whitfield Garden: CONTROL NO CONTROL by Daniel Iregui • F2, Store Street: Cosmoscope by Simeon Nelson with Rob Godman and Nick Rothwell • F4, Fitzroy Place: Droplets by Ulf Pedersen Mayfair • M1, South Molton Street: Impulse by Lateral Office and CS Design • M7, Mount Street: Illumaphonium by Michael Davis • M8, Mount Street Gardens: [M]ondes by Atsara • M10, Berkeley Square: That Night in Berkeley Square by Cédric Le Borgne Road closures During the festival, the following roads will be closed to all traffic (including bicycles) in both directions, with closures from Thursday 18 to Sunday 21 January, between 16:30 and 23:30.

After Sunday 21 January evening waste presentation times will revert back to normal. A summary of the all waste and recycling presentation times for both locations is listed below. The affected presentation times are highlighted in yellow: Day Waste Presentation Time Evening Waste Night Waste Presentation Time (not affected) Presentation Time (not affected) Regent Street 09:30 - 10:00 19:30 - 20:00 22:30 - 23:00 Piccadilly 05:30 - 06:00 18:30 - 19:00 None This means that no bagged waste, cardboard, recycling etc. can be presented on the street for as long as the affected time bands are withdrawn. This applies to everyone who presents waste on the street for collection, regardless of who collects it. Please note that any obstruction to the highway during the event could put public safety at risk, and in the event of injury or damage to property could have repercussions or may incur a fine. Whilst the evening waste presentation times are withdrawn you have the following alternatives: 1) Present your waste during the other presentation times during the morning and/or night. 2) Present your waste in a nearby street during the presentation times applicable to that street. For example: For Piccadilly based premises please present waste at one of the following locations and times: i. Old Bond Street (17:30 - 18:00) ii. Sackville Street (14:30 - 15:00) For Regent Street based customers please present waste at one of the following locations: i. Glasshouse Street (15:30 - 16:00) ii. New Burlington Street (14:30 - 15:00) ii. Conduit Street (17:30 - 18:00) iii. Great Marlborough Street (18:30 - 19:00) iv. Maddox Street (14:30 - 15:00) 3) If none of the alternatives suit, please contact the Commercial Waste team at Westminster on [email protected] for a bespoke ad-hoc collection arrangement. Businesses using the services of private waste contractors will need to contact their provider and make alternative arrangements. The private waste contractors known to operate in the affected streets have also already been notified separately. Parking on these streets will not be allowed for any vehicles during the restricted times. .

  • St Marylebone Parish Church Records of Burials in the Crypt 1817-1853
    Record of Bodies Interred in the Crypt of St Marylebone Parish Church 1817-1853 This list of 863 names has been collated from the merger of two paper documents held in the parish office of St Marylebone Church in July 2011. The large vaulted crypt beneath St Marylebone Church was used as place of burial from 1817, the year the church was consecrated, until it was full in 1853, when the entrance to the crypt was bricked up. The first, most comprehensive document is a handwritten list of names, addresses, date of interment, ages and vault numbers, thought to be written in the latter half of the 20th century. This was copied from an earlier, original document, which is now held by London Metropolitan Archives and copies on microfilm at London Metropolitan and Westminster Archives. The second document is a typed list from undertakers Farebrother Funeral Services who removed the coffins from the crypt in 1980 and took them for reburial at Brookwood cemetery, Woking in Surrey. This list provides information taken from details on the coffin and states the name, date of death and age. Many of the coffins were unidentifiable and marked “unknown”. On others the date of death was illegible and only the year has been recorded. Brookwood cemetery records indicate that the reburials took place on 22nd October 1982. There is now a memorial stone to mark the area. Whilst merging the documents as much information as possible from both lists has been recorded. Additional information from the Farebrother Funeral Service lists, not on the original list, including date of death has been recorded in italics under date of interment.

  • National Sample from the 1851 Census of Great Britain List of Sample Clusters
    NATIONAL SAMPLE FROM THE 1851 CENSUS OF GREAT BRITAIN LIST OF SAMPLE CLUSTERS The listing is arranged in four columns, and is listed in cluster code order, but other orderings are available. The first column gives the county code; this code corresponds with the county code used in the standardised version of the data. An index of the county codes forms Appendix 1 The second column gives the cluster type. These cluster types correspond with the stratification parameter used in sampling and have been listed in Background Paper II. Their definitions are as follows: 11 English category I 'Communities' under 2,000 population 12 Scottish category I 'Communities' under 2,000 population 21 Category IIA and VI 'Towns' and Municipal Boroughs 26 Category IIB Parliamentary Boroughs 31 Category III 'Large non-urban communities' 41 Category IV Residual 'non-urban' areas 51 Category VII Unallocable 'urban' areas 91 Category IX Institutions The third column gives the cluster code numbers. This corresponds to the computing data set name, except that in the computing data set names the code number is preceded by the letters PAR (e.g. PAR0601). The fourth column gives the name of the cluster community. It should be noted that, with the exception of clusters coded 11,12 and 91, the cluster unit is the enumeration district and not the whole community. Clusters coded 11 and 12, however, correspond to total 'communities' (see Background Paper II). Clusters coded 91 comprise twenty successive individuals in every thousand, from a list of all inmates of institutions concatenated into a continuous sampling frame; except that 'families' are not broken, and where the twenty individuals come from more than one institution, each institution forms a separate cluster.

  • ANGLO-CATHOLIC HISTORY SOCIETY Newsletter—December 2012
    ANGLO-CATHOLIC HISTORY SOCIETY Newsletter—December 2012 EDITORIAL At time when a new Archbishop of Canterbury has just been appointed it is appropriate that one of our members should publish a biographical study of one of his predecessors, Cosmo Gordon Lang who held the office from 1928 – 1942. Members will recall that the author, Father Robert Beaken, lectured to the Society in February 2008. His talk was entitled, “Their Proper Place. Archbishop Lang and Anglo-Catholicism”. The book itself has already been favourably reviewed in the Daily Telegraph by Christopher Howse who reports “I am immensely enthusiastic about Robert Beaken’s Cosmo Gordon Lang…it establishes a vivid and convincing picture of the man at the helm of the Church of England…” A review by our chairman is printed below and I have negotiated a special reduced rate for purchase of the book directly from the publishers – see the enclosed flier and order form. HENRY FYNES-CLINTON Another of our members, Father John Salter, has also published an important book at the present time. It comes in the form of the Society’s latest Occasional Paper and is a personal memoir of a leading Anglican Papalist, Father Henry Fynes-Clinton. Copies are available to members from the Secretary at £18 including postage. It is the first study to be published about Fr Fynes, a significant figure in Anglo-Catholicism of the first half of the Twentieth Century. The front of this Newsletter reproduces a snapshot taken of Father Fynes in old age which appears on the cover of the book in colour.

  • The Mayfair Neighbourhood Plan
    MAYFAIR NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN 2018—2038 2 Foreword The Mayfair Neighbourhood Plan 2018 to 2038 is now complete; built on the ideas and comments received through many consultation events over the past years, we hope it reflects the collective desires and aspirations of those who live in, work in and visit Mayfair. The Plan provides an extraordinary opportunity to help shape the future development of Mayfair; it will influence the planning decisions that will be made in the years to come and through that, how the buildings around us, our streetscapes and public spaces will look and work. During this time the impact of Crossrail opening will be felt, new retail formats will likely develop in response to the growth of on-line shopping, business space requirements will be different and the homes we live in will evolve and respond to advances in technology and increased lifespan, while the decline of fossil fuel driven vehicles will continue until they disappear. In creating the Plan, we didn’t start with a blank sheet of paper; we were required to follow existing planning policy and strategy but generally, this provided a boundary to our ideas, not handcuffs that prevented our influence. A full copy of the Plan is available on The Forum’s website: www.mayfairforum.org Jeremy C Bishop Chairman, Steering Group Mayfair Neighbourhood Forum August 2019 3 directors. The three local ward councillors are invited to creating additional space for pedestrians, attractive, attend steering group meetings as observers. multifunctional, accessible and safe streets, and Executive improved walking routes. 3.

  • Mount Street Gardens Management Plan 2007
    Mount Street Gardens Management Plan 2007 – 2012 Mount Street Garden looking east 1 2 FORWARD Westminster is one of the most densely populated cities in the United Kingdom, if not the World, with around 90% of its residents living in flats. Hence Westminster’s parks and open spaces are enormously valued by its residents, as well as those who work and visit the city. It is, therefore the Council’s policy to work towards maintaining all of its parks to a Green Flag standard; to renew the infrastructure and to ensure that our parks and open spaces are something we can all be proud of. I am keen that all our residents and visitors should have an opportunity to become involved in the future development of our green spaces. We need to ensure that we are providing a full range of facilities and services that local residents and visitors would like to see, which will clearly vary from park to park around the City. In pursuit of excellence, the City Council wants each of the parks entered for the prestigious Green Flag award not only to gain but retain the award. This management plan for (name of park) sets out our proposed plans for the park over the next five years. The plan is intended to enable us to achieve the highest horticultural and environmental quality, to ensure continuous top quality maintenance and provide facilities for residents and visitors to play, walk, exercise and relax. All this needs to be managed to ensure that there is something for everyone in the City’s parks and open spaces.
