  • A Walk Through Westminster
    A walk through Westminster Updated: 8 March 2019 Length: About 2¼ miles Duration: Around 3½ hours BACKGROUND Westminster has been at the centre of religion, royalty and political power for over a thousand years, and this walk covers each of these. The original area on which the Houses of Parliament and the Abbey were built lies on what was called Thorney Island. This was just marshy land where the River Tyburn, which rises in Hampstead, flowed into the Thames. It is known as the ‘City of Westminster’ because for a short while the Abbey was classified as a cathedral – in the same way that the City of London is called a city because of St Paul’s. (The reason for it being called a cathedral is further explained in the notes and appendix.) WHERE TO START THE WALK The walk starts outside Westminster tube station, which is served by the Jubilee, Circle and District Lines. The station was rebuilt to accommodate the Jubilee Line in a rather futuristic and ‘brutalist’ style of architecture (which in this instance I rather like). There are also numerous bus routes that serve the area. 1 BEFORE YOU BEGIN THE WALK … A few words on the River Thames and Westminster Bridge The bridge and the River Thames are just 100 yards or so away from the station, where the walk begins. So, if you would like to take a look at them first, then leave the station via Exit 1. Cross the Embankment, passing the statue of Boadicea and her daughters on a chariot. It was erected in in 1902, though not without some controversy as although she may have ‘tried to defend our shores by attacking the Roman invaders’, in doing so she hung, burnt and crucified tens of thousands of innocent people.

    TRAFALGAR 18 CONSERVATION AREA AUDIT AREA CONSERVATION SQUARE This conservation area audit is accurate as of the time of publication, February 2003. Until this audit is next revised, amendments to the statutory list made after 19 February 2003 will not be represented on the maps at Figure 7. For up to date information about the listing status of buildings in the Trafalgar Square Conservation Area please contact the Council’s South area planning team on 020 7641 2681. This Report is based on a draft prepared by Conservation, Architecture & Planning. Development Planning Services, Department of Planning and City Development City Hall, 64 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6QP www.westminster.gov.uk Document ID No: 1130 PREFACE Since the designation of the first conservation areas in 1967 the City Council has undertaken a comprehensive programme of conservation area designation, extensions and policy development. There area now 53 conservation areas in Westminster, covering 76% of the City. These conservation areas are the subject of detailed policies in the Unitary Development Plan and in Supplementary Planning Guidance. In addition to the basic activity of designation and the formulation of general policy, the City Council is required to undertake conservation area appraisals and to devise local policies in order to protect the unique character of each area. Although this process was first undertaken with the various designation reports, more recent national guidance (as found in Planning Policy Guidance Note 15 and the English Heritage Conservation Area Practice and Conservation Area Appraisal documents) requires detailed appraisals of each conservation area in the form of formally approved and published documents.

  • The Army Schoolmaster and the Development of Elementary Education in the Army, 1812-1920
    THE ARMY SCHOOLMASTER AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ELEMENTARY EDUCATION IN THE ARMY, 1812-1920 by ELAINE ANN SMITH Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy, Institute of Education, University of London 1 ABSTRACT THE ARMY SCHOOLMASTER AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ELEMENTARY EDUCATION IN THE ARMY, 1812-1920 It may appear to be somewhat incongruous that the Army, whose primary funct i on has been to prepare for war, shou 1d have been one of the earliest advocates of organized elementary education. Yet its i mpo rtance is someth i ng the Army has long recogn i zed. Soon after the Restoration in 1660, and perhaps even before, some regiments engaged masters to instruct their soldiers and also their offspring. Over the next 150 years an increasing number of command i ng offi cers appoi nted a su i tab 1e NCO to act as schoolmaster to the regiment, before the reforms of 1812 compelled them to do so. In 1846 civilians also became eligible to enlist as Army schoolmasters. Together they became members of the Corps of Army Schoolmasters which survived for nearly three-quarters of a century. This the sis con sid e r s the r ole 0 f the Army s c h0 0 1rna s t e r , his training and conditions of service, with particular reference to the period 1812 to 1920.
