First Floor Office to Let 3429 Sq Ft First floor office to let 3,429 sq ft (319 sq m) Prominent office adjacent to the new Farringdon transport interchange with Crossrail services from 2018. Indicative CGI LOCATION The development sits at the heart of a major investment in London’s railway network with the arrival of Crossrail in 2018. Four lines already run through this interchange - one rail - Thameslink - and three Tube - Circle, Metropolitan and Hammersmith & City. Farringdon station offers direct trains to Gatwick and Luton airports via Thameslink, while St. Pancras International station is just one Tube stop away. With the opening of Crossrail, the new station will be linked directly to Heathrow, London City Airport, Canary Wharf and the international station at Stratford, providing some of the best transport links in Western Europe. 2 GOLDINGTON CRESCENT SHOREDITCH PARK HAGGERSTON PARK ANGEL ION SQARE GARDENS KING’S CROSS & Islington ST PANCRAS INTERNATIONAL King’s Cross EUSTON Hoxton Exmouth Square Market LSO St Luke’s EUSTON OLD STREET SQUARE Coram’s WARREN Fields 1 STREET GREAT ALLEN Clerkenwell Green GARDENS PORTLAND RUSSELL SQUARE STREET Russell Bloomsbury Square Gardens Farringdon Grays Barbican Centre Inn FARRINGDON Gardens BARBICAN GOODGE MOORGATE LIVERPOOL STREET Smithfield STREET Market Museum3 The British Of London Museum CHANCERY LANE HOLBORN The City TOTTENHAM Lincoln’s COURT ROAD Inn ST PAUL’S Fields St Paul’s OXFORD Cathedral CIRCUS West End BANK COVENT GARDEN TEMPLE BLACKFRIARS CANNON STREET LEICESTER SQUARE RIVER THAMES 3 ST.

  • Literary Deans Transcript
    Literary Deans Transcript Date: Wednesday, 21 May 2008 - 12:00AM LITERARY DEANS Professor Tim Connell [PIC1 St Paul's today] Good evening and welcome to Gresham College. My lecture this evening is part of the commemoration of the tercentenary of the topping-out of St Paul's Cathedral.[1] Strictly speaking, work began in 1675 and ended in 1710, though there are those who probably feel that the task is never-ending, as you will see if you go onto the website and look at the range of work which is currently in hand. Those of you who take the Number 4 bus will also be aware of the current fleeting opportunity to admire the East end of the building following the demolition of Lloyd's bank at the top of Cheapside. This Autumn there will be a very special event, with words being projected at night onto the dome. [2] Not, unfortunately, the text of this lecture, which is, of course, available on-line. So why St Paul's? Partly because it dominates London, it is a favourite landmark for Londoners, and an icon for the City. [PIC2 St Paul's at War] It is especially significant for my parents' generation as a symbol of resistance in wartime, and apart from anything else, it is a magnificent structure. But it is not simply a building, or even (as he wished) a monument to its designer Sir Christopher Wren, who was of course a Gresham Professor and who therefore deserved no less. St Paul's has been at the heart of intellectual and spiritual life of London since its foundation 1400 years ago.

  • Charles Dickens and National Identity: Poverty, Wealth and Empire
    University of Chester Department of English MA Nineteenth-Century and Literature and Culture EN7204 Dissertation 2014-15 Charles Dickens and national identity: Poverty, Wealth and Empire J20592 Abstract This dissertation examines the concepts of poverty, wealth and empire in the work of Charles Dickens. The concepts are widely known and have been the subject of countless books and academic studies since Charles Dickens’s death in 1870. Yet what seems to have been given less attention is a close analysis of how these concepts were inextricably linked and bound together in Dickens’s novels, and in the society they reflected. This study aims to address that deficit. The concepts of poverty, wealth, and to a lesser extent, empire formed the bedrock of all Dickens’s novels, and it was Dickens’s close observation of these aspects of society that formed the basis of his work’s clarion call for major social reform in the nineteenth century. This study establishes Dickens’s credibility in accurately portraying these concepts by analysing the influence of social reformers of the time, such as Friedrich Engels, Henry Mayhew, Thomas Carlyle, and Edwin Chadwick. Some of Dickens’s novels are omitted due to the sheer scale of his output, but the study closely examines the novels Oliver Twist (1838), Bleak House (1853), Hard Times (1854), Little Dorrit (1857), Great Expectations (1861), and Our Mutual Friend (1865), as well as Dickens’s periodicals, Household Words (1850-1859) and All the Year Round (1859-1870). This study aims to demonstrate how poverty, wealth and empire, and their intricate, closely-bound relationship, as reflected in the work of Charles Dickens, formed the nucleus of British national identity of the time, and informed national policy and decision-making at every level of society.

  • 1 What Did It Mean? 1954
    WHAT DID IT MEAN? 1954 7. Great Jumping Jehoshophat : favourite expression of Jo March in Little Women . Jehoshophat was King of Judah from 872 BC. No mention in the Bible of him jumping. doesn’t know B from a bull’s foot : an expression meaning to be ignorant or illiterate – possibly because the letter B looks a bit like a bull’s foot. Kamerad : = Comrade. Used by the Germans in World War I. Equivalent in English is “I surrender”. Often used in the novels though I think its use had largely died out by WWII. Assist in the French sense : again, often used by AT. “Assister” in French = “to be present at”. Audit Ale : An audit ale is a special brew originally served at English colleges when examination results were announced following oral examinations (and also by landlords when rents were due), in order to soften the occasional hard feelings that such occasions fostered The English might merit a plaudit For inventing the ale they call audit . This beer was ingested When students were tested; Both winners and losers would laud it. (Tim Alborn, OEDILF, The Omnificent English Dictionary In Limerick www.oedilf.com .) 8. Washington’s, Corbett’s, Holman’s : George Washington, Holman Hunt, perhaps, but why? What connects them to fertiliser? Gampish : Mrs Gamp in Dickens’s Martin Chuzzlewit was a midwife, given to making such calculations. 9. Parish Councils lay down with Town Councils : Isaiah 11.6. .. nor were the Mothers’ Unions unheard: I think this is just Biblical phraseology rather than an actual allusion. Mystery play : Mediaeval plays performed by members of a guild or mystery on a sacred theme.

  • A Walk from Holborn to the Old Bailey
    A walk from Holborn to the Old Bailey Updated: 11 July 2019 Length: About 3 miles Duration: Around 3 hours INTRODUCTORY NOTE Please note that this walk should ideally be done on a weekday as a number of places of interest aren’t open to the public at weekends. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WALK Lincoln’s Inn Fields, Sir John Soane’s Museum, Royal College of Surgeons, Lincoln’s Inn, the Old Curiosity Shop, London Silver Vaults, Cittie of York Inn, Gray’s Inn, the Prudential Building, Staple Inn, Hatton Garden, Ye Olde Mitre Inn, St Etheldreda’s Church, Bleeding Heart Yard, St Andrew’s Holborn Parish Church, Holborn Viaduct, Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the site of Newgate Prison, and the Old Bailey law courts. BACKGROUND The name Holborn comes from the Anglo Saxon for ‘stream in a hollow’, so it was originally ‘Hol- bourne’. The ‘stream’ was actually the River Fleet, which has two tributaries – one flowing from 1 Hampstead and the other Highgate – and they merge in the vicinity of King’s Cross and run down through Clerkenwell and Holborn and flow into the Thames under Blackfriars Bridge. However, as usual, there isn’t full agreement on this, and some historians say it might have come from the ‘old bourne’, meaning old brook, referring to a stream that at one time came from springs close to Holborn Bars and which then flowed for several hundred yards into the Fleet river itself. WHERE TO START THE WALK The walk starts at Holborn Station – which is on both the Central and Piccadilly Lines.
