    1 2 3 Our goal in this lecture will be to show how the definition and ideas of structural art began and to do that we need to turn our attention to Great Britain and the first civil engineers that developed following the industrial revolution. So we look at a series of structures starting at the onset of the industrial revolution. And we also continue defining structural art through comparative critical analysis which makes a comparison based on the 3 perspectives of structural art: scientific, social, and symbolic. 4 SLIDE 2 Image: Public Domain CIA World Facebook (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Uk-map.png) To begin we have to look at the beginning of the fundamental changes that happened as a result of the industrial revolution. I’m not going to go deep into the Industrial Revolution, but there were two major changes that led to the emergence of this new art form of the engineer. One is the change of building material. For example, they were building with wood and stone, and then following the Industrial Revolution, constructions are made with iron. There is also a change of power source from animal and human power to steam power. These two fundamental changes enabled the materials iron, steel and concrete, etc. to come about. Our lecture today is going to focus on engineering in Great Britain. Today’s lecture focuses on designers of Great Britain [Indicate Scotland, England, and Wales on map] Industrial revolution began in Great Britain in late 18th century on basis of two fundamental changes in engineering: 1 – change of building material from wood and stone to industrial iron This was THE material of the industrial revolution 5 2 – steam power (instead of human or animal power) – made iron possible (but we don’t focus on this point in this class) What also happened was that this new material was so much stronger that it needed less and less material.

  • Ancient Chapels’
    Victoria County History Shropshire Volume VI, part II Shrewsbury: Institutions, buildings and culture Section 4.2. ‘Ancient chapels’ The following text is an unrevised draft prepared by the late W. A. Champion. It is made available here through the kindness of his executors. © The Executors of W. A. Champion. Not to be reproduced without permission. Please send any corrections or additional information to [email protected]. 1 4.2. Ancient Chapels [W.A. Champion – Final draft, Jan. 2012] Eleven ancient chapels, one parochial, are recorded in Shrewsbury, although in four cases the references are to two chapels re-dedicated in the Middle Ages. The history of St George’s chapel in Frankwell was associated with the adjacent hospital, one of three similar institutions in medieval Shrewsbury whose history has been outlined elsewhere.1 St Catherine’s chapel, Coton. The chapel of St Catherine at Coton, mentioned in 1395,2 was attached to a hermitage, one of three in Shrewsbury’s suburbs, and appears to have been appropriated by the Pride family before 1408.3 Part of the Pride inheritance passed to the Mytton family,4 and in 1521 the heirs of Thomas Mytton paid a rent of 1d. to the borough pro parva capella Sancte Katerine.5 The chapel remained Mytton property until the 19th century.6 The chapel yard, bisected by the Shrewsbury and Chester railway, was marked on the Coton tithe map of 1849,7 indicating that the chapel stood at the junction of the Ellesmere and Baschurch roads. Cadogan’s chapel, Frankwell. In 1332 the harper Jevan Devenald was licenced to grant land in mortmain to a chaplain to celebrate service in the chapel of the Holy Trinity, Kadugenscros, for the soul of the King and his ancestors.8 A Shrewsbury location is not mentioned but the reference may be to Cadogan’s Cross in Frankwell on the Oswestry road (The Mount).

  • River Severn Partnership - Shropshire Flood Prevention
    Committee and Date Item Cabinet 27th September 2020 Public River Severn Partnership - Shropshire Flood Prevention Responsible Officer Mark Barrow, Executive Director Place e-mail; [email protected] Tel: 01743 258916 1.0 Summary The purpose of this Report is to update Cabinet on the progress made by the River Severn Partnership and to seek support for reviewing future technical options for water management including flood risk management measures north of Shrewsbury in conjunction with the development of the North West Relief Road. The threat of future increases in river levels couple with prolonged dry weather as a result of climate change requires both a catchment wide approach to river management and the development of long term sustainable interventions. This paper seeks support to engage in a comprehensive programme of community consultation and engagement to help shape these options. The report also provides headline details of the opportunities and benefits of developing such measures. 2.0 Recommendation It is recommended that Cabinet; 2.1 support in principle, the potential development of water management measures north of Shrewsbury that would reduce future risk of river flooding for all communities within Shropshire along the River Severn south of Shrewsbury. 2.2 support the principle of a holistic approach to development of the North West Relief Road in conjunction with 2.1 above. 2.3 support the opportunity, in conjunction with 2.1 above, to explore the potential to develop a water based, leisure resource that includes enhanced natural wildlife and habitat, visitor economy facilities that would include enhanced highway, cycling and walking infrastructure.

This thesis began as an attempt to relate the topography and domestic architecture of an English town to its general history, to see, that is, how far the present street plan and surviving buildings reflected the various stages in growth from its origins to the time when, with the coming of the railway, distant influences suddenly became more powerful than the historic regional environment, Shrewsbury was chosen because it has both a wealth of old houses and extensive corporation records which it was hoped would throw light on the buildings, in particular on their dating. The examination of records of all kinds proceeded intermittently for about three years, paralleled by an exterior survey of most of the town's buildings.

  • Floods in Shrewsbury
    Frankwell Flood Alleviation Scheme Shrewsbury February 2002 flood © Shropshire Star February 2004 flood © Shropshire Star SHREWSBURY Introduction Shrewsbury is the county town of Shropshire with a population of approximately 100,000 people. It has a rich architectural and historical heritage and is one of the best preserved medieval towns remaining in England. The town centre stands on a hill in the middle of a narrow necked horseshoe loop of the River Severn with the river surrounding most of the town’s historical centre. The River Severn has always played a central role in the development of the town, and it remains an important asset. Over the centuries, the river has helped to build the town’s character and its prosperity. However, it also brings the damaging threat of flooding. The River Severn is approximately 354 km long, from its source in the Cambrian Mountains in mid-Wales to its outflow into the Bristol Channel, making it the longest river in Great Britain. By the time it reaches Shrewsbury, it has combined with other rivers including the Vyrnwy and Perry and effectively acts as the main river draining the northern part of the Cambrian Mountains and the agricultural plain of north Shropshire. This is an area of approximately 2,500 km2. Frankwell, September 2002 History of flooding Over the years, development in Shrewsbury has encroached onto the floodplain, resulting in extensive areas at risk from flooding. There are approximately 400 residential and commercial properties at risk in Shrewsbury. In addition, transport links are severely disrupted during floods, thereby isolating the town centre.
