West Smithfield Strategy Committee(s): Date(s): Planning & Transportation 26 November 2013 Policy and Resources 12 December 2013 Court of Common Council 16 January 2014 Subject: Adoption of the West Smithfield Area Enhancement Strategy Report of: Director of Built Environment Public/For Decision Wards: Farringdon Within, Farringdon Without and Aldersgate Summary This report seeks approval for the adoption of the revised West Smithfield Area Enhancement Strategy and to inform Members about the recently undertaken public consultation and revisions to the Strategy. Copies of the Strategy and the consultation responses are available in the Member‟s Reading Room. The City has adopted several Area Enhancement Strategies as mechanisms for delivering public realm improvements in areas of significant change, including the Riverside, Cheapside, Barbican and most recently Aldgate & Tower, Fenchurch & Monument, Bank and Liverpool Street Area. The plan in Appendix B shows the current coverage of the City by Area Enhancement Strategies. The Strategy has been developed to provide improvements to the public realm in the West Smithfield area. New developments and Crossrail will lead to increasing numbers of pedestrians using the streets. The Strategy will provide an improved, accessible and functional pedestrian environment that would support the projected increased pedestrian footfall, whilst supporting the activity of Smithfield meat market and the continuing operation of Bart‟s Hospital. For example, amongst other things, it includes the creation of more space for pedestrians, measures to improve road safety in the area and additional public spaces, seating and tree planting where appropriate. Also, the strategy identifies current issues and future demands and sets out a framework for addressing these within the context of existing policies and guidance. A public consultation on the strategy was undertaken from October to December 2012. Responses were generally positive and several changes have been made to the strategy document to take comments into account. The revisions relate mainly to: The importance of providing accessible streets. Road safety in the area. The importance of the green spaces in the area. The importance of maintaining a functional environment for Smithfield Market. Maintaining parking levels to existing standards and enabling access to business premises. Proposals have been grouped into high, medium and low priorities in the delivery plan for the strategy. It is anticipated that funding for these will be from external sources such as Section 106, Section 278, the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) and Transport for London. If the strategy is approved, delivery of the schemes will be initiated through the project gateway process broadly in the priority order set out. Funding totalling £7m has been identified towards enhancement projects for the Strategy area through existing Section 106 and Section 278 agreements related to the Barts Close development. A gateway 2 report for Bartholomew Close Environmental Enhancement has been approved as part of the Environmental Enhancement: Projects Programme report submitted to Planning & Transportation Committee, 14 May 2013 and Projects Sub-Committee, 16th May 2013. Recommendation It is recommended that: (i) The West Smithfield Area Enhancement Strategy is adopted. Main Report Context 1. The West Smithfield area is located to the north-west of the City, sharing a boundary with the London Borough of Islington to the north and the London Borough of Camden to the west (Please refer to Appendix A). The area has a distinctive mixed use character with a strong residential component. Key local institutions are Smithfield meat market and St. Bart‟s Hospital. 2. Smithfield-Farringdon has been designated as an Area of intensification in the London Plan (2011) and it is considered that further economic growth and employment can be supported in the area. Crossrail Farringdon East, opening in 2018, will become a major public transportation hub, and will bring increasing number of people to the area. The area is also identified in the City‟s Core Strategy as one of the key areas of significant change and challenge that is subject to increased pedestrian flows as a result of Crossrail. 3. The area enhancement strategy has been developed to provide improvements to the public realm in order to accommodate future growth. It will provide an improved and fit for purpose vehicle and pedestrian environment that would support the increase pedestrian footfall in the area, whilst supporting the activity of Smithfield meat market the continued operation of St Bart‟s Hospital. 4. There are many observed issues and pressures for change within the West Smithfield area, particularly relating to accommodating future growth. Identified pressures include: There will be significantly more pedestrian footfall, cycle and vehicle movement through the West Smithfield area as a result of the new Crossrail Farringdon East station. The number of pedestrians on Lindsey Street/Long Lane will increase from the current flow of an estimated 1,000 persons in peak hours/weekday to 2,800 persons in the same period by 2026 (Crossrail figures). Accessibility is one of the main issues in the area. Many streets have very narrow footways as a result of the medieval street pattern, making them inaccessible for wheelchair and disabled users, often forcing people into the carriageway. The redevelopment of St. Bartholomew‟s Hospital (under construction) and Bartholomew Close redevelopment. Security and road safety is an increasingly important issue in the area as result of its 24 hour activity. The evening and night-time economy is becoming increasingly active with more restaurants, bars and clubs attracting visitors. This is causing growing concern in the area among residents, business occupiers and Smithfield Market, particularly in relation to cleansing, anti-social behaviour and vehicle movement. 5. Area Enhancement Strategies have previously been prepared for parts of the City to deliver improvements to the public realm including Cheapside, the Eastern City Cluster and most recently Aldgate & Tower, Fenchurch & Monument, Bank and Liverpool Street Area. The coverage of the City by Area Enhancement Strategies is shown on the plan attached at Appendix B. The Strategy 6. The preparation of an area strategy for West Smithfield was instigated as a result of the proposed development of Bartholomew Close and the construction of Crossrail Farringdon East Station. The adoption of an area based approach was needed in order to respond to the changing nature of the area and accommodate future growth. 7. The strategy includes many elements of the, “Farringdon Urban Design Study” completed in 2010 and managed by Design for London in partnership with the City of London, Network Rail, Transport for London, English Heritage, Crossrail, the London Borough of Camden and London Borough of Islington. 8. The West Smithfield Area Enhancement Strategy is a comprehensive document that provides a clear framework for the future of the public realm. The objectives are to address current problems, ensure the area is able to accommodate future growth and to create a successful and sustainable public realm which reflects the City‟s position as a world class financial, business and cultural centre. 9. The area strategy includes a range of street scene improvements, whilst preserving and enhancing heritage assets and addressing pressures for change. The strategy covers the following themes: Accessibility and Movement: • Creating more space for pedestrians, particularly on routes that are impacted by Crossrail; (Long Lane, Lindsey Street and Hayne Street). • Implementing access improvements and safe pedestrian crossings throughout the area, primarily on Grand Avenue, West Smithfield, and Little Britain. • Considering measures to improve road safety. • Creating new and improved access points to public gardens, such as Postman‟s Park and the Rotunda Garden. Public Spaces • Creating new and enhancing existing public spaces, such as at Bartholomew Close, and considering the removal of the ambulance station south of the rotunda to create a new public square. • Rationalizing street furniture and provide opportunities for seating where appropriate. • Adding interest to the public space through art installations. • Ensuring that any improvements take account of the historic character of the area. Planting and Open Spaces • To plant individual trees at key junctions and streets, subject to their impact on heritage assets, enhance quiet and tranquil areas, reduce noise pollution and enhance biodiversity. Courtyards and Alleys • To improve accessibility throughout the area, whilst taking account of the historic character of the area, in line with the Smithfield Conservation Area; Character Summary & Management Strategy SPD. 10. An Equality Impact Assessment (EQIA) has been carried out for the Strategy and it is considered to have positive impacts upon the users of the City‟s streets and spaces. 11. All projects identified within and arising from the Strategy will be subject to detailed options appraisal, targeted consultation and reporting via the relevant Committee processes. Public Consultation Exercise 12. In July 2012, the draft West Smithfield Area Enhancement Strategy was reported to the Planning & Transportation Committee and approval was given for a public consultation exercise on the Strategy. 13. The public consultation was undertaken from October to December 2012 and 40 written

  • The Politics of Architecture in Tudor and Stuart London Transcript
    The Politics of Architecture in Tudor and Stuart London Transcript Date: Thursday, 11 February 2010 - 12:00AM Location: Museum of London The Politics of Architecture in Tudor and Stuart London Professor Simon Thurley Visiting Gresham Professor of the Built Environment 11/12/2010 Tonight, and again on the 11 March, I will be looking at the interrelation of architecture and power. The power of kings and the power of government and how that power has affected London. On the 11th I will be looking at Victorian and Edwardian London but tonight I'm going to concentrate on the sixteenth and seventeenth century and show how Tudor and Stuart Monarchs used, with varying degrees of success, the great buildings of the City of London to bolster their power. The story of royal buildings in the City starts with the Saxons. Before 1052 English Kings had had a palace in London at Aldermanbury, but principally to avoid the instability, turbulence and violence of the populace Edward the Confessor, the penultimate English King, had moved his royal palace one and a half miles west to an Island called Thorney. On Thorney Island the Confessor built the great royal abbey and palace of Westminster. And it was here, that William the Conqueror chose to be crowned on Christmas day 1066, safely away from the still hostile inhabitants of the city. London was too big, powerful and independent to be much influenced by the Norman Conquest. Business continued unabated under a deal done between the city rulers and their new king. However William left a major legacy by establishing the metropolitan geography of the English monarchy - the subject of my talk this evening.

This part is devoted to Reeves, a business founded by Thomas Reeves and his brother, William, in about 1780 and which went through several partnerships before becoming Reeves & Sons in 1830, when Thomas Reeves took his sons into partnership, and Reeves & Sons Ltd in 1890. The business was a significant supplier of canvas from the 1830s until the 1940s. For further information, see British artists' suppliers, 1650-1950 - R on this website. Measurements of marks, given where known, are approximate and may vary according to the stretching or later conservation treatment of a canvas or the trimming of a label. Links are given to institutional websites where dimensions of works can be found. Dates for partnerships and addresses are usually accurate to within a year. Square brackets are used to indicate indistinct or missing lettering in transcripts, with readings sometimes based on other examples. Compiled by Jacob Simon, September 2017, updated February 2020, and based on the pioneering work of Cathy Proudlove and the suppliers’ database created by Jacob Simon.

  • Cheapside Branch Is Closing on Friday 29 January 2021 Reasons for Closure, and Alternative Ways to Bank
    This branch is closing – but we're still here to help Our Cheapside branch is closing on Friday 29 January 2021 Reasons for closure, and alternative ways to bank. This branch is closing – but your bank is always open This first booklet will help you understand why we’ve made the decision to close this branch. It also sets out the banking services and support that will be available to you after this branch has closed. In a second booklet, which will be available from the branch prior to it closing or online at home.barclays/ukbranchclosures, we'll share concerns and feedback from the local community. We'll also detail how we are helping people transition from using the branch with alternative ways to carry out their banking requirements. Here are the main reasons why the Cheapside is closing: • The number of counter transactions has remained constant in the previous 24 months, however 93% of our branch customers also use other ways to do their banking such as online and by telephone • Cust omers using other ways to do their banking has increased by 7% since 2015 • In the past 12 months, 17% of this branch's customers have been using nearby branches • We’ve identified that only 62 customers use this branch exclusively for their banking Proposals to close any branch are made by the Barclays local leadership teams and verified at a national level ahead of any closure announcement. If you have any questions and concerns about these changes then please feel free to get in touch with Matthew Bell, your Market Director for Central London.
