  • Parks, People and Nature
    Parks, People and Nature A guide to enhancing natural habitats in London’s parks and green spaces in a changing climate Natural England works for people, places and nature to conserve and enhance biodiversity, landscapes and wildlife in rural, urban, coastal and marine areas. We conserve and enhance the natural environment for its intrinsic value, iithe wellbeing and enjoyment of people, and the economic prosperity it brings. Parks, People and Nature A guide to enhancing natural habitats in London’s parks and green spaces in a changing climate Introduction My vision for London is of a green city, and a fair city, where everyone has access to a high quality green space in which wildlife can be encountered close to where they live and work. London has some of the Ýnest parks of any capital city in the world. Yet it also has some areas lacking in green space, and many more where the quality of the green spaces could be better. This booklet provides a valuable practical guide on how to improve access to nature in parks and green spaces, complimenting my London Plan Implementation Report on Improving LondonersÔ access to nature. Appropriate design and management of our parks and green spaces will be one of the key challenges that will enable the City to adapt to climate change. Park managers need to be working now to plant the trees that will provide shade for a much warmer city in the 2080s. We also need to start thinking now how our parks can help in addressing broader environmental challenges such as Þood risk management.

  • Lyrics and Music
    Soundtrack for a New Jerusalem Lyrics and Music By Lily Meadow Foster and Toliver Myers EDITED by Peter Daniel The 70th Anniversary of the National Health Service 1 Jerusalem 1916 England does not have a national anthem, however unofficially the beautiful Jerusalem hymn is seen as such by many English people. Jerusalem was originally written as a preface poem by William Blake to his work on Milton written in 1804, the lyrics were added to music written by Hubert Parry in 1916 during the gloom of WWI when an uplifting new English hymn was well received and needed. Blake was in- spired by the mythical story Jesus, accompanied by Joseph of Arimathea, once came to England. This developed its major theme that of creating a heaven on earth in En- galnd, a fairer more equal country that would abolish the exploitation of working people that was seen in the ‘dark Satin mills’ of the Industrial revolution. The song was gifted by Hubert Parry to the Suffragette movement who were inspired by this vi- sion of equality. 2 Jerusalem William Blake lyrics Hubert Parry Music 1916 And did those feet in ancient time Walk upon England's mountains green? And was the holy Lamb of God On England's pleasant pastures seen? And did the countenance divine Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Jerusalem builded here Among those dark Satanic Mills? Bring me my bow of burning gold! Bring me my arrows of desire! Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold! Bring me my chariot of fire! I will not cease from mental fight Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand Till we have built Jerusalem In England's green and pleasant Land Hubert Parry 1916 Words by William Blake 1804 3 Jerusalem 1916 4 Jerusalem 1916 5 Jerusalem 1916 William Blake imagined a time when Britain would be a fairer more equal society.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by The University of Sydney: Sydney eScholarship Journals online The English Warner Brother triumphs over religious hegemony on the road to celebrity and dynasty Ann Lazarsfeld-Jensen In late Victorian England, music halls were often besieged by fanatical Christians who wanted to shut them down. Evangelicals manipulated justifiable public concerns about alcohol abuse to conflate popular entertainment with social erosion. The complex legislation surrounding places of entertainment began in the 1830s with concerns about limelight and sawdust, but by the 1880s it was firmly focused on morality (Victorian Music Halls 63) The music hall wars were an alarming threat for the predominantly Jewish artists and hall managers barely one generation beyond refugee poverty. It was unwise for them to oppose anything rooted in the national religious hegemonies, and they could not find a moral high ground to protect their livelihood. In this context, the fin de siècle Jewish theatrical agent, Dick Warner, began to use networks of men’s clubs and newspaper publicity to redefine the industry. The peaceful assimilation of Jews with its concomitant benefits for the pursuit of profit (Jews of Britain 77-79) was not a cynical ambition. Warner subscribed to the Victorian Anglo-Jewish world view of judicious assimilation and restrained observance, and he embraced it as the way forward for theatrical entrepreneurs who were losing ground to what Kift refers to as the “sour-faced, austere and ascetic” social reformers (157). The themes of Warner’s publicity campaign are recognisable today.

  • London Parks and Open Spaces Part 1
    LONDON PARKS AND OPEN SPACES Mary Fraser March 2018 London is one of the greenest cities of its size in the world. One fifth of London is designated publicly accessible green space. There are 3,000 public green spaces from heaths, commons and large parks to playing fields, playgrounds, canal towpaths, city farms, nature reserves, allotments etc. This paper deals mainly with the larger parks in central London which have the longest history. PART 1 – HISTORY OF LONDON PARKS TO 1980 ROYAL PARKS The first parks open to the public but not public parks were the royal parks – Hyde Park, St James’s Park, Green Park, Regent’s Park, Greenwich and Richmond Parks. St James’s Park and Hyde Park were opened to the public in the 17th century and used first by the fashionable few but by the early 1800 Hyde Park was popular with a wider public and swimming in the Serpentine or watching it was a popular pastime. Week- long festivities in Hyde Park in 1814 for the centenary of the House of Hanover drew big crowds so many had experience of the pleasure of parks. The new Regent’s Park was opened to the public in 1835. But these parks were not easily accessible for many communities living in the densely populated areas of expanding industrial London. EARLY PLANS FOR PUBLIC PARKS Urban parks had existed on the continent for some time, especially in France and Germany. Munich had a public park, the Englische Garten , in 1789. It was only in 1833 that the British government set up a Select Committee to investigate the best means of “securing open spaces in the vicinity of populous towns as public walks and places of exercise to promote the health and comfort of the inhabitants.” Their report stressed the moral and spiritual value afforded by these public spaces: Your Committee feel convinced that some Open Places reserved for the amusement (under due regulations to preserve order) of the humbler classes, would assist to wean them from low and debasing pleasures.
