This is reflective of the volume and quality of stock relative to other areas of the County. It further identifies Durham City’s ability to attract national and international office occupiers, stating that the market appeal is underpinned by factors such as the East Coast Mainline (ECML), world class university and quality of life, as well as its accessibility to the strategic road network. 1.2 Despite the attractiveness of the City, the ELR finds that Durham’s ability to attract large scale office requirements of private sector professional firms have been limited by the constraints of the historic city centre and shortage of suitable sites. 1.3 Analysis indicates the Durham City market area currently accounts for 28.5% of all office floorspace within the County. Whilst implied demand indicates a need for up to 11ha of office development, assuming that Durham City is to maintain a proportionate share of office space, this would imply 18.5ha of land for office development in Durham City.

  • Creating Human Community in Dunelm House and on Kingsgate Bridge
    Durham's Modern Moment – Creating Human Community in Dunelm House and on Kingsgate Bridge Adrian Green, Durham University Introduction by Professor Ludmilla Jordanova, Emeritus Professor of History and Visual Culture in the Department of History, Durham University Architecture is a major area of interest for CVAC. One of its most successful events was a conference - Caring for Brutalism, which took place in the context of debate within Durham University and more widely about the future of Dunelm House, which is adjacent to the already listed Kingsgate Bridge in the centre of the city. It was recently announced that the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport has awarded the building Grade II Listing; conversations will now ensue about its future. In his essay, Adrian Green from the History Department, trained in both history and archaeology, shares his enthusiasm for the building and sets it in broader contexts. Responses are welcome and should be sent to [email protected] Durham University has a reputation for being somewhat traditional, not least through its collegiate structure.1 But in the 1960s the university commissioned two startling pieces of modern architecture, designed to level social class and foster new forms of human community based on social happenstance rather than hierarchy. Kingsgate Bridge and Dunelm House were commissioned as part of a strategy to expand the university – linking the science site and hill colleges to the historic peninsula, on which Durham Cathedral and Castle sit. Dunelm House provided a central Student Union and Staff Club – making Kingsgate Bridge (opened 1963) and Dunelm House (completed 1966) the geographical and social crossing point for the university.

    Female Enterprise and Entrepreneurship in North East England, 1778-1801 Susan Laura Beaumont Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History, Classics and Archaeology, Newcastle University February 2019 Acknowledgements My most sincere thanks go to my Supervisor, Dr Joan Allen, for her unwavering support and encouragement since I presented myself to her as a historian in search of a subject. I consider myself fortunate to have been able to discuss this with Joan and a achieve a life-long ambition as a consequence. My PhD journey has not been easy, but it could not have been achieved without my husband's and daughter's support. I am therefore deeply indebted to them for their forbearance, borne with great fortitude. I am also grateful to those who enabled me to define my aims: Professor Emeritus John Cannon, Professor David Oldroyd, Dr David Saunders and Dr Graham Butler. I am also very grateful to the Economic History Society for supporting my attendance at several Conferences, where I was able to share my ideas with Dr Amanda Capern, Dr Janet Casson and Dr Helen Paul. The assistance I received from the archivists in Durham University's Palace Green Library and the North East Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering must also be acknowledged to have been exceptional. Finally, I could not have achieved my aim, as a coalfield child, without having acquired a passion for history from Professor Emeritus Philip Woodfine, Dr David Wright and Professor Emeritus Bill Stafford, whose MA in History at the University of Huddersfield was a perfect apprenticeship.

  • DH1: a Tale of Two Cities by Melissa Tutesigensi
    New Narratives for the North East DH1: A Tale of Two Cities by Melissa Tutesigensi *NB: all names have been changed I’M ONE OF those people who doesn’t sit in their booked seat on a train. I’ll look for an empty space where a passenger hasn’t shown up instead. I’ve chosen Carriage B, Seat 15, and, so far, no one has turned up. I know I’m safe when the train hushes away from the platform through the shadowy ribcage of the train station. I can settle into the journey now. I’m on the LNER. It goes all the way up to Inverness, but I’m getting off at Newcastle. We’re not long out of Leeds station when the train driver welcomes us aboard. His voice folds into the background, muffled and grainy over the tannoy. I’m half-listening until I hear the destinations listed. York. Northallerton. Darlington. Durham. I’ll be passing through Durham for the first time since graduation. It’s only been three months, but this crisp October morning seems a world away from that hot day in July. It was one of the best days I ever had in that city. Almost aggressive in its perfection. When I think of my experiences in Durham, I’m drawn to the extremes. In the highlight reel of the things that stand out the most, all of the quotidian details fall away. I forget what each day felt like. Instead, I rely on my two-dimensional version of the past. And I’m not the only one.
