  • Commerce and Exchange Buildings Listing Selection Guide Summary

    Commerce and Exchange Buildings Listing Selection Guide Summary

    Commerce and Exchange Buildings Listing Selection Guide Summary Historic England’s twenty listing selection guides help to define which historic buildings are likely to meet the relevant tests for national designation and be included on the National Heritage List for England. Listing has been in place since 1947 and operates under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. If a building is felt to meet the necessary standards, it is added to the List. This decision is taken by the Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). These selection guides were originally produced by English Heritage in 2011: slightly revised versions are now being published by its successor body, Historic England. The DCMS‘ Principles of Selection for Listing Buildings set out the over-arching criteria of special architectural or historic interest required for listing and the guides provide more detail of relevant considerations for determining such interest for particular building types. See https:// www.gov.uk/government/publications/principles-of-selection-for-listing-buildings. Each guide falls into two halves. The first defines the types of structures included in it, before going on to give a brisk overview of their characteristics and how these developed through time, with notice of the main architects and representative examples of buildings. The second half of the guide sets out the particular tests in terms of its architectural or historic interest a building has to meet if it is to be listed. A select bibliography gives suggestions for further reading. This guide treats commercial buildings. These range from small local shops to huge department stores, from corner pubs to Victorian ‘gin palaces’, from simple sets of chambers to huge speculative office blocks.

    Manchester City Council Item 7 Economy, Employment and Skills Overview and Scrutiny Committee 20 October 2010 Manchester City Council Report for Resolution Report to: Economy, Employment and Skills Overview and Scrutiny Committee - 20 October 2010 Subject: Greater Manchester LTP3 Consultation Report of: Chief Executive Summary One of the key priorities of the Greater Manchester Strategy (GMS) is to significantly improve transport connectivity into and within the city region. AGMA and GMITA are working together to deliver Greater Manchester’s Third Local Transport Plan (LTP3), which will come into effect in April 2011, and will deliver a city region transport strategy to develop the transport system to best support economic growth, social well-being, environmental improvement and better public health across the conurbation. As part of LTP3, District Implementation Plans will set out local transport policies and proposals supported by investment and implementation programmes. AGMA and GMITA have now approved a draft Long Term Strategy for LTP3 and a public consultation, launched on 4 October, will run until 24 December. The attached report to Executive briefly summarises the key elements of the Long Term Strategy, which is consistent with the city council’s objectives, and invites Members to comment so that a formal response can be prepared. The report also sets out the consultation process and briefly explains the purpose of the Manchester Implementation Plan that will be presented to Members later this year. Recommendations That Members: 1. Note that AGMA and GMITA have launched a public consultation on the Long Term Strategy for LTP3 and forward any comments to the Executive to assist in compiling a formal response to the consultation; 2.
