Gazetteer Part 1 Gazetteer to c. 1270 and c. I 520 maps With Historical Notes THIS gazetteer is designed to be used in conjunction with the two maps of London: London, (.12 ~o, and London, C.l) 20. Each feature named on these maps has an entry in the gazetteer. If a feature is named on both maps, its gazetteer entry appears under the spelling used on the Ii 20 map. In such cases there is a cross-reference under the I no spelling. Features other than streets are shown on the maps with modern Of modernized names; contemporan' spellings are used for street names. Names in brackets on the I j 20 map indicate that there is eddence for the existence of the feature, but the onl\' known name is much earlier than t. 1) 20. The gazetteer entries briefh outline the history and topographical development of each feature down to {.II20, and the names b\' which it was known c. 1 270 and C.I i 20. If radical variations or outright changes of name occurred between those two dates, samples of such vanants or changes also are included in the entn', otherwise differences in use of capital letters or combination of words are ignored. :-':ormall\' this information has been drav:n from printed sources only, but in some cases manuscripts and unpublished material have been consulted, particulark Dr :\farc Fitch's researches on the thirteenth-centun' Husting Rolls and the \vork in progress of the Social and Economic Stud\ of :\fedieval London, directed by Dr Derek Keene (Cni\'ersity of London, Institute of Historical Research). The gazetteer entries also the modern names of sUfYiving medie\'al streets, and note extant remains of medieval structures. In addition, the histories of churches in existence in Ii 20 ha\'e been sketched down to the present, or until their closure or demolition. I\:o feature has been mapped unless it could be located with reasonable certainty. For this reason it has been necessary to omit many features that are known to have existed, but which could not be located Moreover, the small scale of the c. 1270 map has meant that certain features could not be mapped for reasons of space. These can be found on the {.I 520 map and the gazetteer notes the earlier spelling of the name. :\lap references. Each gazetteer entry has a map-flnding reference composed of three numbers. The first, in bold, refers to one of the four double sheets of the I po map, numbered 1 to 4 from west to east. The second and third numbers arc paIred together, and define the in a notIonal grid within which the feature lies. To use didde each double sheet mentally into tenths horizontally and \'erticallr page break pro\'ides a useful \\,ith the map in an upright position (i.e. with north at the top), and at the top left corner, estimate the position of the first co~ordinare by counting from the left to the right (i.e. from west to east). Then estimate the position of the second co~ordinate by counting from the top to the bottom from north to south). For example, the map reference for Lovell's Inn is 2 n. This will be found by' turning to map sheet 2, and counting ()Yer sey'en tenths from the left (west), and down se\-en tenths from the top (north). \'ery large features, such as Sr Paul's Cathedral, are gi\'en map sheet numbers only. In order to locate features on the (. 12 ~o map, it is necessan' to identify the (,1 po map areas which are indicated by ticks at the top and bottom of the (,1270 map and numbered. Then read off in tenths as before. See 'Key to :\[aps'. Abchurche Lane 3 76 Aldersgate 296 By (.1240-50: E, 159. 1274 Abechircbelatlf: HR 6/F. 1548 Abchurche City gate, prob. orig.

  • Call for Entries from Architects, Designers and Artists to Improve Culture Mile’S Pedestrian Experience Along Its North-South Route
    Call for entries from architects, designers and artists to improve Culture Mile’s pedestrian experience along its North-South route The City of London Corporation is delighted to announce a call for entries to improve wayfinding, walkability and the pedestrian experience along Culture Mile’s ‘North-South route’ between the Millennium Bridge and Barbican. The City of London Corporation is seeking an innovative design concept and proposal for the ‘Culture Mile North-South Route’, between the Millennium Bridge, St Paul’s Cathedral, Aldersgate Street and St Martin’s-le-Grand, to be included as part of the Culture Mile 2019-2020 public programme. The City is looking for inspiring designs that will improve the wayfinding, walkability, appearance and vitality of this key thoroughfare, which links the Southbank to the Culture Mile area. This busy route incorporates entrances to several landmarks, such as St Paul’s Cathedral, the Museum of London and the Barbican estate. It includes the Barbican and St Paul’s underground stations, which collectively provide over 28 million passenger entrances/exits annually. We are inviting architects, designers and artists to submit a concept design that will elevate and enhance the look and feel of this area, providing visual cues, increased wayfinding and a deeper sense of connection between St Paul’s and Barbican underground stations. Following the shortlist of entries in July, the winning team will be revealed and commissioned to develop a fully costed, feasible design that can be installed in a section of the route, subject to planning permission and other relevant City authorisations. The design will remain in situ between Autumn 2019 and Spring 2020.

  • Catherine Harbor
    The Birth of the Music Business: Public Commercial Concerts In London 1660–1750 Catherine Harbor Volume 2 369 Appendix A. The Register of Music in London Newspapers 1660–1750 Database A.1 Database Design and Construction Initial database design decisions were dictated by the over-riding concern that the Register of Music in London Newspapers 1660–1750 should be a source-oriented rather than a model-oriented database, with the integrity of the source being preserved as far as possible (Denley, 1994: 33-43; Harvey and Press, 1996). The aim of the project was to store a large volume of data that had no obvious structure and to provide a comprehensive index to it that would serve both as a finding aid and as a database in its own right (Hartland and Harvey, 1989: 47-50). The result was what Harvey and Press (1996: 10) term an ‘electronic edition’ of the texts in the newspapers, together with an index or coding scheme that provided an easy way of retrieving the desired information. The stored data was divided into a text base with its physical and locational descriptors, and the index database. The design and specification of the database tables was undertaken by Charles Harvey and Philip Hartland using techniques of entity-relationship modelling and relational data analysis. These techniques are discussed in numerous texts on databases and database design and have been applied to purely historical data (Hartland and Harvey, 1989; Harvey and Press, 1996: 103-130). The Oracle relational database management system was used to create the tables, enter, store and manipulate the data.

    The Hammer-Beam Roof: Tradition, Innovation and the Carpenter’s Art in Late Medieval England Robert Beech A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Art History, Film and Visual Studies College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2014 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis is about late medieval carpenters, their techniques and their art, and about the structure that became the fusion of their technical virtuosity and artistic creativity: the hammer-beam roof. The structural nature and origin of the hammer-beam roof is discussed, and it is argued that, although invented in the late thirteenth century, during the fourteenth century the hammer-beam roof became a developmental dead-end. In the early fifteenth century the hammer-beam roof suddenly blossomed into hundreds of structures of great technical proficiency and aesthetic acumen. The thesis assesses the role of the hammer-beam roof of Westminster Hall as the catalyst to such renewed enthusiasm. This structure is analysed and discussed in detail.
