  • Tower of London World Heritage Site Management Plan
    Tower of London World Heritage Site Management Plan Published by Historic Royal Palaces © Historic Royal Palaces 2007 Historic Royal Palaces Hampton Court Palace Surrey KT8 9AU June 2007 Foreword By David Lammy MP Minister for Culture I am delighted to support this Management Plan for the Tower of London World Heritage Site. The Tower of London, founded by William the Conqueror in 1066-7, is one of the world’s most famous fortresses, and Britain’s most visited heritage site. It was built to protect and control the city and the White Tower survives largely intact from the Norman period. Architecture of almost all styles that have since flourished in England may be found within the walls. The Tower has been a fortress, a palace and a prison, and has housed the Royal Mint, the Public Records and the Royal Observatory. It was for centuries the arsenal for small arms, the predecessor of the present Royal Armouries, and has from early times guarded the Crown Jewels. Today the Tower is the key to British history for visitors who come every year from all over the world to relive the past and to enjoy the pageantry of the present. It is deservedly a World Heritage Site. The Government is accountable to UNESCO and the wider international community for the future conservation and presentation of the Tower. It is a responsibility we take seriously. The purpose of the Plan is to provide an agreed framework for long-term decision-making on the conservation and improvement of the Tower and sustaining its outstanding universal value.

  • Heritage Premises: Fire Safety Guidance Background
    Heritage Premises: Fire Safety Guidance Background: Important heritage buildings are listed by Historic England. Listing, scheduling, registering and protecting are all forms of Designation, for protecting buildings, monuments, parks and gardens, battlefields and wreck sites respectively. Designation is the act of identifying the most important parts of our heritage so they can receive special protection and make sure that our history can be enjoyed by present and future generations. All of these sites are brought together in the National Heritage List for England (NHLE) Buildings and structures which meet the criteria for national protection are listed. This protection system has been in place since 1947 and operates under; The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. Guidance to selection criteria is available on Historic England`s web site: http://historicengland.org.uk/listing/selection-criteria/listing-selection/ Listed Buildings: Listing helps us acknowledge and understand our shared history. It marks and celebrates a building's special architectural and historic interest, and also brings it under the consideration of the planning system so that some thought will be taken about its future. The older a building is, the more likely it is to be listed. All buildings built before 1700 which survive in anything like their original condition are listed, as are most of those built between 1700 and 1840. Particularly careful selection is required for buildings from the period after 1945. A building has normally to be over 30 years old to be eligible for listing. Categories of listed buildings: Grade I buildings are of exceptional interest, only 2.5% of listed buildings are Grade I.

I believe that English Heritage is particularly well placed to do just this – through a combination of its scholarship, imagination and unwavering desire to inspire and entertain, and of course through its remarkable collection of historic sites. This is a historic moment for us. With our new freedom as a charity, independent of Government, our ability to engage with millions of people is now greatly strengthened. And our ambition is matched only by our determination to succeed. I hope you will catch something of this excitement about the future as you read through this prospectus.

  • Historic England Advisory Note on the Reconstruction of Heritage Assets
    Historic England Advisory Note on the Reconstruction of Heritage Assets HO-J Draft 01042016 1. Introduction 1.1 In certain circumstances there may be a need or desire to reconstruct heritage assets. If this work is to deliver the maximum public benefit it is important to all interested parties, particularly local communities, that such work is very carefully considered, planned and delivered. If this is not done there is risk that the assets will be recreated in a form in which they never existed and which undermines our ability to understand and appreciate our past. 1.2 It is many years since English Heritage, Historic England’s predecessor, provided guidance on the reconstruction of heritage assets. English Heritage’s Policy Statement on Restoration, Reconstruction, and Speculative Recreation of Archaeological Sites including Ruins was published in 2001. Parts of the statement have been incorporated in more summary form in this advisory note. Conservation Principles, Policies and Guidance for the Sustainable Management of the Historic Environment dates from 2008 and it is anticipated that the review of the sections of this document on the related topics of restoration, new work and alteration will be informed by this advisory note on reconstruction. Historic England Advice Note 2 Making Changes to Heritage Assets was published in February 2016. The note contains sections on restoration, additions and alterations, relevant elements of which have been included here, sometimes in slightly modified form to reflect the differences between restoration and reconstruction as defined in section 2 below. 1.3 Historic England is the government’s advisor on the historic environment of England.

  • Climate Change, Heritage Policy and Practice in England: Risks and Opportunities
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Apollo 159 Climate Change, Heritage Policy and Practice in England: Risks and Opportunities Hannah Fluck and Meredith Wiggins Environmental Research, Strategic Research and Partnerships Team, Historic England Introduction Our climate is changing (ASC 2017; IPCC 2013, 2014a, 2014b, 2014c, 2014d)1 and implications for both the physical remains and the intan- gible nature of the historic environment have been widely examined.2 However, the impact upon the ways in which we as practitioners currently conserve heritage, and how and whether practice and policy should be reconsidered, has perhaps been less so. Te physical remains of England’s past are protected via four mechanisms: designation, development man- agement (planning), agri-environment schemes and ownership. Climate change will afect all of these, as well as present new challenges that may require novel approaches to heritage management. Building upon previ- ous research undertaken by Historic England (formerly English Heritage until 2015), the public body that looks afer England’s heritage, this paper looks at how three of the main cross-cuting climate change issues (loss, maladaptation and resilience) could afect heritage protection in England. 1 For UK climate projections, see Jenkins et al. 2009; Murphy et al. 2009. 2 For physical remains see, for example, Cassar 2005; English Heritage 2008; UNESCO World Heritage Centre 2007.

  • English Heritage Lends Its Rembrandt Self- Portrait to Gagosian Gallery In
    AiA Art News-service English Heritage lends its Rembrandt self- portrait to Gagosian gallery in exchange for support Self-portrait with Two Circles at Kenwood House is the charity’s greatest painting, along with a Vermeer MARTIN BAILEY 6th March 2019 14:41 GMT Rembrandt van Rijn, Self-Portrait with Two Circles (around 1665) Photo: © Historic England Photo Library English Heritage is to lend Rembrandt’s self-portrait from Kenwood to a commercial gallery for financial and other support. The painting will be the centrepiece of an exhibition at London’s Gagosian Gallery on Visions of the Self, which opens next month. Other self-portraits by Picasso, Bacon, Freud and Basquiat will be shown alongside contemporary artists, including Baselitz and Hirst. A new work by Jenny Saville, inspired by the Rembrandt, will be unveiled. Rembrandt’s late Self-portrait with Two Circles (about 1665) is English Heritage’s greatest painting, along with a Vermeer. Both are at Kenwood House, in north London. The Rembrandt was lent to four American museums in 2012-13 (Houston, Milwaukee, Seattle and Arkansas) and to London’s National Gallery and Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum in 2014-15. It is much requested for exhibitions. A Gagosian statement describes the arrangement with English Heritage as a “partnership”. It says that this will involve Gagosian “supporting the [English Heritage] charity and its sites, artworks and artefacts”. Initially the gallery will pay for the conservation of the Rembrandt’s 18th-century frame, with other developments in “planning stages”. Anna Eavis, English Heritage’s curatorial director, says: “Working with Gagosian will allow us to create exciting juxtapositions between our collections and the gallery’s modern and contemporary program.” A Gagosian spokesman says that the gallery will be “paying for the conservation of the frame”, although the arrangement is “not a financial partnership”.

  • The Medieval Massacre of the Jews of York Josie
    SPEAKING WITH SHADOWS Transcript of Episode 3: The Medieval Massacre of the Jews of York Josie: Thanks for downloading this episode of Speaking with Shadows. This podcast tells the stories that are hidden from the official version of history, and sometimes that means we touch on some difficult subjects. This episode contains some graphic descriptions which some people may find upsetting and for that reason it’s not suitable for younger listeners. ……………… Welcome to Speaking with Shadows. I’m Josie Long. All of the stories that I’ve been uncovering in this series have been inspiring and thought-provoking in different ways. They’ve also been hard to hear at points, which is exactly why they’re worth telling. Today I’ve come to York and I love York. It’s a great city, I love coming to do gigs here. You can really feel the depth of its history when you walk around the city, like, you can see the different layers stretching back as far as you can think. And I feel like that’s one of the reasons why a really tragic event in the city’s history gets sidelined in the tour schedule. But then if you come to Clifford’s Tower, it’s one of the city’s most imposing sites. It’s on a high mound and there’s been a tower on top of the mound here since William the Conqueror. He built two castles in York in 1068. But it’s since been built and rebuilt to serve different purposes through the centuries.
