WORKING GROUP Claire Pattie Donna Guthrie Farrah Aftab Jean Eveleigh Katie Bilboa Manjit Marsha Hylton Martha Quigley Meredith Berman Shireen Chaudhry UPDATE During the past month, there have been fantastic project submissions in each of the Community Neighbourhood areas. The Community Assembly Working Groups have now assessed all stage one and two project applications and those that met the funding criteria have been put forward to the voting round which goes live on 16 July. Unfortunately, the number of applications that met the funding criteria was much less than anticipated. Therefore, the council has decided to revoke the split in funds which would have given £30k to resident projects and £70k to Voluntary, Community and Faith Sector (VCFS) partners. This means the whole amount of £100k will be allocated by your votes in a single voting round which combines all resident and VCFS projects. You as a resident will be assigned £100k to vote on the projects, which are most important to you. In neighbourhoods where there weren’t enough viable projects, the local Working Groups have gone through the initial ideas submitted by the community on the Newham co-create platform. They have developed those ideas which aligned with the chosen neighbourhood priorities into project proposals to ensure there are plenty of projects that people could choose from when submitting their vote. These projects, which will be delivered by the council if they receive enough votes and will be included in the voting phase along with the resident and VCFS projects. PROJECTS The Working Group have assessed and put forward the following projects through to the voting round Project name Funding Priority it aligns with requested £ 1.

  • Cemetery Records
    RESEARCH GUIDE Cemetery Records Research Guide 5: Cemetery Records CONTENTS Introduction Main cemetery records held at LMA Bunhill Fields (CLC/271) New Bunhill Fields, Islington (B/NBF) The City of London Cemetery, Little Ilford (CLA/052) The City of London and Tower Hamlets Cemetery (CTHC) Other cemetery records at LMA Indexes and Transcripts in the LMA Library Records held elsewhere Introduction Before the mid-19th century most burials in London took place in churchyards and from the mid-16th century were recorded in parish registers. Some hospitals and other institutions had their own burial grounds. From the time of the Black Death special burial grounds outside the City walls were provided for people who died from the periodic epidemics of plague which afflicted London. Land to the north of the Artillery Ground known as Bunhill Fields was set aside in 1665 as a plague burial ground, but was not used for this purpose. It then became a burial ground for nonconformists. After 1690 many nonconformist meeting houses and chapels were established in London some of which had their own burial grounds. By the late 18th century the London churchyards were becoming overcrowded. New cemeteries were established as private speculations generally offering slightly lower charges for burials than the churchyards. Some of these burial grounds were originally connected to chapels adjoining them, but were subsequently bought by private individuals. By 1835 there were at least fourteen such burial grounds in London including Spa Fields, Clerkenwell, opposite London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) where about 80, 000 people were buried. An enquiry in 1843 discovered that about 40 burials were taking place each day.

  • St Barnabas Manor Park Parish Profile
    ST. BARNABAS CHURCH Browning Road, Manor Park, London E12 6PB T: 020 8472 2777 E: [email protected] www.stbarnabasmanorpark.co.uk PARISH PROFILE 2017 St Barnabas Church, Manor Park E12 PARISH PROFILE 2017 Parish Summary We are a diverse, friendly, inclusive congregation. We seek to love God and our neighbours in the spirit of the commandment given to us in the Gospel. Everyone from every background is welcomed at St Barnabas. Our Sunday Family Eucharist at 9:30am is our main service, which is relaxed but traditional in structure with a variety of music. We have a dynamic Sunday school and our children actively participate in the main service. Our focus is on sharing Communion in prayer and song, exploring Scripture, being of service and seeking fellowship in church, and bearing witness to the world. We are looking for a priest who will continue the catholic tradition of our parish as manifest by: 1. Our emphasis on the Eucharist as central to our worship; 2. The wearing of vestments in accordance to the liturgical seasons; 3. The celebration of the major feasts and saints’ days; 4. The complete cycle of Lent starting with Ash Wednesday, Stations of the Cross leading up to the great feast of Easter. We look forward to welcoming a thoughtful and energetic priest who will continue in our tradition. Our church building is large and beautiful – a surprise compared to its somewhat modest exterior. The building was designed by Sir Ninian Comper in partnership with William Bucknall at the beginning of the 20th Century. We have recently carried out major structural renovation, but more work is needed to make the building more flexible for greater community use, while maintaining the sacred space and the architectural heritage.

  • The Industrial and Community Heritage of Silvertown and North Woolwich Introduction
    The industrial and community heritage of Silvertown and North Woolwich Introduction The Islanders is a project that aims to preserve the industrial and community heritage of Silvertown and North Woolwich. It is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and the Royal Docks Team. Volunteers and local participants have contributed significantly to the project. Thames Festival Trust thanks Newham Archives (The Islanders’ Heritage Partner), London Metropolitan Archives and Eastside Community Heritage. In the nineteenth century, London’s eastern boundary was at Bow Creek, where its noxious industries began to congregate. From shipbuilding, to silver, iron, oils, soap, rubber and manure, London’s industry was developing on the fringes of the city. By the completion of the Albert Dock in 1880, Silvertown and North Woolwich had effectively become an ‘island’. It was bordered by the Thames to the south, and by the Royal Docks and its lock entrances to the north, east and west, the only way in or out was by bridge, ferry or tunnel.

September 2021 Left: Goad Fire Insurance Plan, May 1900 (The British Library) 3 The origins Prior to the nineteenth century, Silvertown and North Woolwich was an uninhabited marshland called Plaistow Level used for grazing cattle, and frequented by smugglers, prize fighters, and high tide flooding, sat between Bow Creek and Gallions Reach. In the 1840s, the area was sold cheaply at an ‘agricultural price’ to a consortium of developers.
