Heritage Selected Works OUR PROFILE & HERITAGE EXPERIENCE EPR Architects is an award-winning architectural studio based in Central London and Poland. As one of the largest ranked practices in the AJ100, 2017 and 2018 saw us awarded the AJ100 Clients’ Choice Award, recognising our commitment to client satisfaction and design excellence. Having worked on some of the country’s most significant heritage assets including The Old War Office (Grade II*), Two Waterhouse Square (Grade II*), and The Royal Automobile Club (Grade II*), we have earned a strong reputation for designing and delivering complex schemes within sensitive sites. Many of our projects occupy prime Central London locations that demand a clear understanding of the complex planning and heritage constraints and opportunities. We have also been awarded prestigious projects within UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as the design and delivery of a new visitor centre within The Palace of Westminster, new facilities within The House of Lords, and the conversion of five Grade II* listed buildings into the opulent Gainsborough Bath Spa — the UK's first hotel to tap into the original Roman Bath springs. ADAPTING HISTORIC BUILDINGS For a Change in Use At the core of our approach to conservation is a deep-routed understanding of historic buildings, which has allowed our practice to push the limits of restoration into the realms of regeneration. We believe this informed approach — which has been recognised by the country's leading heritage authorities — can be used to support appropriate interventions necessary to ensuring our historic assets are preserved and re-appropriated for future generations to enjoy. Testament to this is our delivery of The Ned; a multi-award winning transformation of Sir Edwin Luytens' Grade I listed former Midland Bank into an iconic hotel which has transformed the City of London into a genuine destination district and winner of the 2018 City Heritage Award. We endeavor to provide innovative solutions to sensitively adapt existing buildings to suit a change in use. An example of this approach is our design for the Grade II* listed St James's House, which required a bold solution to improve the building’s layout to accommodate a conversion to residential use. We introduced a floating glass box set within the central light-well, a creative feature which connected the lift to the apartments and seamlessly integrated the new residences into the property without compromising the building's original form. St James's House, Westminster THE OLD WAR OFFICE 57 Whitehall Located in the heart of Whitehall, the Grade II* listed former government building, which has housed secretaries of state Lord Kitchener, T. E. Lawrence and John Profumo as well as Winston Churchill during World War II will be transformed into a five-star 125 key luxury hotel and 88 one-to-five bedroom apartments. The existing 580,000 sq ft building will be largely retained and part adapted to offer Hotel and Residential elements with the introduction of a new double-height basement and rooftop extension (strategically modelled to address key viewpoint restrictions), alongside restaurants, boutique shops, bars, a spa, a gym and a pool. Client 57 Whitehall | Services Architecture Size 125 guest rooms and 88 apartments THE OLD WAR OFFICE This complex project includes the transformation of two external spaces; an unnattractive utilitarian triangular courtyard will become an exclusive residents garden, whilst the quadrangle accessed from Horse Guards Avenue will offer an exclusive hotel arrival experience and drop off along with alfresco dining. ST JAMES'S HOUSE 88 St James's Street Our sensitive proposals have transformed this magnificent Grade II* Listed former office building into a limited collection of elegant residences, offering a unique and exclusive lifestyle that befits the neighbouring St James’s Palace. Our brief was to restore the building to its original splendor whilst implementing innovative improvements to its functionality and layout. Taking inspiration from the existing character of the building, we have reinstated spacious, classical interiors throughout. The use of exquisite marble, quartz enriched plasterwork, and fine joinery have been used to compliment the restored features such as the intricately detailed iron gates and mahogany panelling. The entrance hall has been restored to its former glory to create an emblematic focal point for the property. Client Caraeno Services Architecture | Size 8 apartments Interior Designer Katherine Pooley ST JAMES'S HOUSE The grand staircase has been retained, but the arrangement of the larger apartments required a bold solution to improve the building’s layout. NO1 GROSVENOR SQUARE Mayfair No. 1 Grosvenor Square is located within the heart of the Mayfair Conservation Area, facing onto Grosvenor Square to the west and Grosvenor Street to the south. It is next door to the Grade II listed Italian embassy building.We have been appointed by Lodha as Executive Architect to deliver the consented Eric Parry Architects scheme. The project will convert the building from its previous use as the Canadian Embassy into 48no. super prime residential units and ancillary residential leisure facilities. Client Lodha Services Executive Architecture Size 48 apartments THE NED 27 Poultry, City of London A multi-award winning conversion of the former Midland Bank (Sir Edward ‘Ned’ Lutyens’ celebrated architectural masterpiece) into an iconic hotel which has since transformed the City of London into a genuine destination district. The project involved a complex process of obtaining planning permissons and legal approvals, added to the the design challenge of incorporating all the operational needs of a large hotel into a former bank within the constraints of a listed building. The resulting scheme has been achieved through a sensitive refurbishment; with the extensive banking hall transformed into a lobby, reception and main dining area; the three basements (including the original vaults) converted into a bar, spa and gym; former offices transformed into bedrooms with the adjoining secretaries’ offices converted into ensuite bathrooms; and the bank’s domes and rooftops lending space for a restaurant and bars. EPR Architects led the coordination of the design team and delivered the detailed design work, collaborating closely with Soho House & Co and Sydell Group. Client Soho House, Sydell Poultry LLC Capital Construction Development Ltd Services Architecture | Size 252 guest rooms | Interior Designer Soho House 16 THE NED Many of Lutyens’s original features have been restored and refurbished, such as the stone and marble staircases, period chandeliers, plasterwork, walnut panelling, green verdite columns, and parquet and black-and-white flooring. Fittings unique to the building’s heritage, such as wooden banking counters and safety deposit boxes, have also been carefully preserved. The bank’s original vault, complete with a twenty-tonne, 2 metre wide vault door, has been converted into a bar. The vault is widely believed to be the inspiration for Fort Knox in James Bond’s Goldfinger. THE NED The former boardrooms and executive offices have been sensitively restored to create impressive event spaces, each with their own reception area to allow private hire: the largest is the Tapestry Room with wooden panelling and the original 1920s tapestry running around the four walls. The smallest, and most intimate, is the Wren Room, named after Sir Christopher Wren. Ned’s Club Downstairs is made up of three floors, including a 620m2 gym, eight treatment rooms, a 20-metre swimming pool and spa, offering Soho House’s own Cowshed treatments. KIMPTON FITZROY Formerly The Hotel Russell, Bloomsbury Situated in the heart of Russell Square, this historic Grade II* listed building, originally designed by the renowned architect Charles Fitzroy Doll, was one of the first purpose-built hotels in London. Much of the hotel’s lavish interior had also inspired Doll in his designs for the RMS Titanic. Over the years a number of refurbishments and architectural interventions had destroyed many of the original features and much of the building’s innate glamour. In 2014, EPR Architects was appointed by Starwood Capital as Lead Designer to work alongside Principal Hotels, Tara Bernerd & Partners and Russell Sage Studio to restore this ‘grande dame’ back to its former glory; whilst reinvigorating the space and adding a sense of modern luxury. Client Starwood Capital Services Architecture | Size 373 guest rooms KIMPTON FITZROY The renovation included a hard refurbishment of guestrooms to create 334 individual custom finished rooms with 39 new luxury suites. These suites seek to address the historical significance of the building with locations on the front façade and principal suites on the first floor, where historically the finest guestrooms would have been accommodated. The public areas were also completely reconfigured to significantly improve the guest arrival experience and make way for new restaurants, bars and event spaces. At the heart of the building is the reintroduction of a Palm Court with a new external seating area and winter garden. This is surrounded by the dramatically refurbished bars and restaurant alongside a new all-day coffee house. Externally, the building is distinctively clad in decorative thé-au-lait terracotta which has been extensively cleaned and restored where possible, with a reconfiguration to the external entrances. Redundant later additions have been removed with a new entrance to the restaurant and new doors and marble steps throughout. THE RAM QUARTER Wandsworth In 2013 EPR secured planning consent for a residential led mixed use masterplan which has transformed the Young’s Brewery site into a new urban quarter that celebrates the strong heritage of the Ram Brewery buildings whilst creating a vibrant new heart to Wandsworth Town centre. Beer had been produced on the site since 1581, making it the oldest continuously operating brewery in Britain, and despite Young’s closing in 2006, a small-scale brewery was maintained on site during construction to ensure the development retained this legacy.

  • DATES of TRIALS Until October 1775, and Again from December 1816
    DATES OF TRIALS Until October 1775, and again from December 1816, the printed Proceedings provide both the start and the end dates of each sessions. Until the 1750s, both the Gentleman’s and (especially) the London Magazine scrupulously noted the end dates of sessions, dates of subsequent Recorder’s Reports, and days of execution. From December 1775 to October 1816, I have derived the end dates of each sessions from newspaper accounts of the trials. Trials at the Old Bailey usually began on a Wednesday. And, of course, no trials were held on Sundays. ***** NAMES & ALIASES I have silently corrected obvious misspellings in the Proceedings (as will be apparent to users who hyper-link through to the trial account at the OBPO), particularly where those misspellings are confirmed in supporting documents. I have also regularized spellings where there may be inconsistencies at different appearances points in the OBPO. In instances where I have made a more radical change in the convict’s name, I have provided a documentary reference to justify the more marked discrepancy between the name used here and that which appears in the Proceedings. ***** AGE The printed Proceedings almost invariably provide the age of each Old Bailey convict from December 1790 onwards. From 1791 onwards, the Home Office’s “Criminal Registers” for London and Middlesex (HO 26) do so as well. However, no volumes in this series exist for 1799 and 1800, and those for 1828-33 inclusive (HO 26/35-39) omit the ages of the convicts. I have not comprehensively compared the ages reported in HO 26 with those given in the Proceedings, and it is not impossible that there are discrepancies between the two.

  • The Old Bailey and the Recorder of London: a Brief History
    From our Patron, Simon Callow Last year I received the exceptional honour of the Freedom of the City of London. Since boyhood I have been haunted by the City, its history, its imagery, its traditions. One of the most vital of those traditions is the City's association with music. Since at least 1350, The Worshipful Company of Musicians has proudly celebrated the noble art. I vividly remember a City of London Festival when I was a youth, in which The Yeoman of the Guards was performed with full son et lumière effects at the Tower of London, and Sir William Walton was specially commissioned to write a splendid piece for the City – A Song for the Lord Mayor's Table. Since then the Barbican Concert Hall has opened, and the London Symphony Orchestra has become resident orchestra. Music is everywhere in the City, as it should be. So when last year's Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress, Roger and Clare Gifford, asked me become a Patron of their new charity, the City Music Foundation, I said yes straight away - not only because of the ancient association of the City with music, but because it looks so keenly to the future. Its raison d'être is to help young musicians at that critical difficult early point in their careers, right at the beginning, after their training, when they attempt to launch themselves into the world. The Foundation nurtures, encourages, and supports them at a vulnerable moment in their lives. I know very well what that feels like - young actors face exactly the same problems; sometimes really gifted, exceptional artists fall by the wayside.

MARDER* INTRODUCTION As deeply-rooted as the jury is in the United States, it is not beyond improvement. There is no better starting place for ideas than England, which provided the model for our jury system. To learn firsthand about current jury practices in England, I spent two weeks observing criminal jury trials at the Old Bailey in London.I My goal was to examine jury prac- tices at the Old Bailey and to consider which ones could work well in the United States.2 I observed some jury practices that I thought we should adopt immediately, and others that would work well in the long run but that might take awhile to gain acceptance.
