  • LTN Winter 2021 Newsletter
    THE LUTYENS TRUST To protect and promote the spirit and substance of the work of Sir Edwin Lutyens O.M. NEWSLETTER WINTER 2021 A REVIEW OF NEW BOOK ARTS & CRAFTS CHURCHES BY ALEC HAMILTON By Ashley Courtney It’s hard to believe this is the first book devoted to Arts and Crafts churches in the UK, but then perhaps a definition of these isn’t easy, making them hard to categorise? Alec Hamilton’s book, published by Lund Humphries – whose cover features a glorious image of St Andrew’s Church in Sunderland, of 1905 to 1907, designed by Albert Randall Wells and Edward Schroeder Prior – is split into two parts. The first, comprising an introduction and three chapters, attempts a definition, placing this genre in its architectural, social and religious contexts, circa 1900. The second, larger section divides the UK into 14 regions, and shows the best examples in each one; it also includes useful vignettes on artists and architects of importance. For the author, there is no hard- and-fast definition of an Arts and Crafts church, but he makes several attempts, including one that states: “It has to be built in or after 1884, the founding date of the Art Workers’ Guild”. He does get into a bit of a pickle, however, but bear with it as there is much to learn. For example, I did not know about the splintering of established religion, the Church of England, into a multitude of Nonconformist explorations. Added to that were the social missions whose goal was to improve the lot of the impoverished; here social space and church overlapped and adherents of the missions, such as CR Ashbee, taught Arts and Crafts skills.

  • Camberwell Grove Conservation Area Appraisal Part 3
    Camberwell Grove Conservation Area The Character and Appearance of the Area Figure 9 Regency streetscape at Grove Crescent – designated under the London Squares Preservation Act Figure 10 Brick paving and good modern lighting - St. Giles Churchyard Building types 3.1.12 The great majority of buildings in the Conservation Area are residential, particularly in Camberwell Grove and Grove Lane., the predominant type is three and four storey brick or stuccoed terraces of houses, dating from the late 18th/early 19th century and designed on classical principles, In other parts of the area there are two storey brick or stucco villas or pairs from the 19th century. Later, there are many examples of two storey brick houses built with arts and crafts/English revivalist influence, as at Grove Park, for example. 3.1.13 These residential building types provide the basis of the character of the Conservation area. Against their background a few institutional and public buildings are landmarks that stand out in the local context. On Denmark Hill, there is the main frontage of the Maudsley Hospital in early 20th century classical styles using red brick and Portland stone. Giles Gilbert Scott’s 1932 Salvation Army College employs a neo-classical style in dark brown brick. The Mary Datchelor School is in a Queen Anne revival style using red brick and plain tiled roofs, and St. Giles Church is an 1840s Gothic revival design. 3.2 Sub-area 1 - Lower Camberwell Grove St. Giles Church 3.2.1 St. Giles Church is a very important landmark in the Camberwell area, marking the "gateway" to the centre of Camberwell from the Peckham Road.

  • The Power Station
    LIVE DON’T DO ORDINARY Battersea Power Station is a global icon, in one BATTERSEA POWER STATION of the world’s greatest cities. The Power Station’s incredible rebirth will see it transformed into one of the most exciting and innovative new neighbourhoods in the world, comprising unique homes designed YOUR HOME IN A by internationally renowned architects, set amidst the best shops, restaurants, offices, green space, GLOBAL ICON and spaces for the arts. 4 5 Battersea Power Station’s place in history is assured. From its very beginning, the building’s titan form and scale THE ICON has captured the world’s imagination. Two design icons, one designer. The world-renowned London telephone box was one of architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott’s most memorable creations, the other was Battersea Power Station. Red buses, A BRITISH ICON Beefeaters, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and Battersea Power Station – this icon takes its place as part of the world’s visual language for London. 6 7 BATTERSEA POWER STATION THE ICON A DESIGN ICON This was no ordinary Power Station, no ordinary design. Entering through bronze doors sculpted with personifications of power and energy, ascending via elaborate wrought iron staircases and arriving at the celebrated art deco control room with walls lined with Italian marble, polished parquet flooring and intricate glazed ceilings, looking out across the heart of the Power Station, its turbine hall, its giant walls of polished terracotta, it’s no wonder it was christened the ‘Temple of Modern Power’. Sir Giles Gilbert Scott’s design of Battersea Power Station turned this immense structure into a thing of beauty, which stood as London’s tallest building for 30 years and remains one of the largest brick buildings in the world.

It sets out what residents said they appreciate about living at Saffron Square and what they think could be improved; it assesses the quality of design and management of the scheme; and it offers some recommendations for the future of Saffron Square and for similar developments elsewhere. The place Saffron Square is a dramatic addition to the drab cityscape of central Croydon. It consists of five podium blocks (now occupied) around a triangular landscaped plaza, as well as a striking 43-storey purple-clad tower (exterior complete but as yet unoccupied) that is visible from several miles away. The location is exceptionally good for transport, sitting almost equidistant from East and West Croydon stations and next to the tram and bus routes on busy Wellesley Road.
