This consultation is the first stage in our public engagement programme with further consultation to be held as the proposals evolve. Proposals for high quality residential development on the site identified above will fund, in part, the delivery of proposals for new leisure and tourism development at Raby Castle, Park and Gardens. Development of the homes will remain in the control of the Raby Estate. The proposed development at Staindrop is part of wider proposals at the Raby Estate, including repair at Gainford Hall and housing development in Gainford. We are happy to take you through the initial thoughts and constraints analysis, answering any questions that you may have. Staindrop 2 - Masterplanner and Architect Ben Pentreath has been appointed by Raby Estates as the Masterplanner and Architect to further proposals for the potential development site at the eastern end of Staindrop. Ben Pentreath is one of the country’s leading architectural practices involved in the design of traditionally-inspired new developments. Their work seeks to draw from the best of the past, making places that are human scaled, timeless and long-lasting, and yet which are robustly designed for modern life. Ben and his team have worked extensively at Poundbury, The Prince of Wales’ urban extension to Dorchester and a number of other major projects across the country. Knockroon Knockroon is a ground breaking development on the edge of the historic Dumfries House Estate in East Ayrshire. The design of both the masterplan and houses draw inspiration from the simple vernacular of local towns and buildings which were studied extensively. Truro Eastern District Centre Truro Eastern District Centre is a pioneering partnership between the Duchy of Cornwall and Cornwall Council including 98 homes, a food store and park and ride facility. A formal architectural style was adopted for both the commercial and Poundbury residential buildings and locally distinctive materials utilised throughout including Poundbury is the Duchy of Cornwall’s Cornish slate and granite. 2500 dwelling urban extension to the county town of Dorchester. Developed over a period of 20 years, with a further 10-15 years to completion it has been designed following the simple principles of giving priority to people, rather than cars, and where commercial buildings are mixed with residential areas, shops and leisure facilities to create a walkable community Working alongside master planner Leon Krier, Ben Pentreath has been increasingly involved in the design and delivery of Poundbury, and the practice is now responsible for much of the new development constructed since 2009, and into the future. Staindrop 3 Raby Castle Raby Castle is a Grade I Listed medieval castle which was built between 1367- 1390 and is located near Staindrop in County Durham, England. It was built by John Neville, 3rd Baron Neville de Raby and has been the seat of the Vane family, the Barons Barnard, since the early 17th century. The Castle is set within 200 acres of deer park and is open to the public. The park landscape (which includes the Walled Garden) is Grade II* Registered. The first historic walled gardens were developed in the 18th Century and soon expanded to become a significant stone-walled enclosure and a number of 18th-19th Century service buildings. The garden walls and many of the buildings are now Grade II or Grade II* Listed. The Walled Gardens and stables cafe within the Coach House (refurbished in 2018) are open all year round to the public. The castle and walled gardens currently receive about 60,000 visitors per year. The Castle Estate is at a turning point in its evolution and a sustainable future use is required. Developing the Castle buildings, Park and Gardens to realise its potential as a key regional asset and national tourism destination is considered to be the most appropriate use moving forward. The Castle itself is in a good state of repair due to personal investment of the Vane family however there are a number of redundant buildings which require intervention. The Estate is looking at various options including the reuse of existing buildings, additional cycle and footpath routes and the introduction of new buildings for tourism and leisure uses. The proposals for the Castle, Park and Gardens will increase visitor numbers and public accessibility which is recognised as being a major priority for Visit County Durham and the County Council. The proposals are far-reaching and will be phased to allow for staged investment. Staindrop 4 Historic Development Pattern OS 1856-1857 OS 1914 OS 1954 OS 1975-1976 Post 1976 Proposed 1 2 4 3 Understanding the historic settlement pattern and how Staindrop has grown is important to inform the emerging ideas and thinking for any proposed development 1 2 within the village. The oldest visible feature in Staindrop is its’ green; a common element of Teesdale villages. Staindrop would then have been sparse but by the 18th century saw much residential development, partly due to the existence of a bustling market on the green since 1378. The green is split in two by Front Street, and both sides narrow toward their ends, forming a sense of enclosure. Image 1 Image 2 The large houses facing the green once had long plots of land reaching behind them Substantial 18th century houses front the The 19th century saw the construction into the countryside.

Delivery of the masterplan will be part funded from the revenue generated from residential development at Staindrop. We are currently at the stage identifying the various constraints to development, following which we will engage in further positive discussion with the local community about how the development could appear. We understand the local community will also have thoughts on other constraints and opportunities, we are keen that these thoughts are shared with the Estate at this early stage.

    EDITORIAL Another year has come and gone, and we trust that 1989 will be a happy and prosperous one for all our members. If our Society is to continue to flourish, however, it is essential that more members should play an active part in running its affairs. Ken Brown, our Secretary since 1983 (and acting Programme Organiser for the last year), is resigning at the Annual General Meeting in May, and Irene Blackburn, who is responsible for the Members' Interests and Second Time Around sections of the Journal, will be giving up her position as Research Editor later in the year. We are very grateful to them both for all the work they have done on our behalf. In addition to these two posts, we are still short of a Programme Organiser. If you know of anyone who might be willing to take on any of these jobs please let Ken Brown know as soon as possible - otherwise the Society may come to a grinding halt. One of the most important events of 1988 as far as the Society was concerned was the publication of the long-awaited Directory of Members' Interests. Its production entailed a great deal of hard work on the part of those responsible, and it also placed a severe strain on the Society's finances. In view of the fact that it was initially offered free to members (only the cost of postage and packing being charged), the demand for copies was disappointingly small. Copies are still available, and although now priced £2.75 each (post free to addresses in the U.K.), they are very good value.

    NEWS RELEASE FOURTH STREET AT CONSTITUTION AVENUE NW WASHINGTON DC 20565 . 737-4215/842-6353 EXHBITION FACT SHEET Title; THE TREASURE HOUSES OF BRITAIN: FIVE HUNDRED YEARS OF PRIVATE PATRONAGE AND ART COLLECTING Patrons: Their Royal Highnesses The Prince and Princess of Wales Dates; November 3, 1985 through March 16, 1986, exactly one week later than previously announced. (This exhibition will not travel. Loans from houses open to view are expected to remain in place until the late summer of 1985 and to be returned before many of the houses open for their visitors in the spring of 1986.) Credits; This exhibition is made possible by a generous grant from the Ford Motor Company. The exhibition was organized by the National Gallery of Art, Washington, in collaboration v\n.th the British Council and is supported by indemnities from Her Majesty's Treasury and the U.S. Federal Council on the Arts and Humanities. Further British assistance was supplied by the National Trust and the Historic Houses Association. History of the exhibition; The suggestion that the National Gallery of Art consider holding a major exhibition devoted to British art was made by the British Council in 1979. J. Carter Brown, Director of the National Gallery, responded with the idea of an exhibition on the British Country House as a "vessel of civilization," bringing together works of art illustrating the extraordinary achievement of collecting and patronage throughout Britain over the past five hundred years. As this concept carried with it the additional, contemporary advantage of stimulating greater interest in and support of those houses open to public viewing, it was enthusiastically endorsed by the late Lord Howard of Henderskelfe, then-Chairman of the Historic Houses Association, Julian Andrews, Director of the Fine Arts Department of the British Council, and Lord Gibson, Chairman of the National Trust.
