    Handlist of Maps, Plans, Illustrations and Other Large-Format Single-Sheet Material in the Society's Library

    Handlist of maps, plans, illustrations and other large-format single-sheet material in the Society’s library This is the fourth edition of the Handlist covering the Society’s map collection. The key updates since the last edition are the inclusion of new digital and printed copies of Benjamin Hare’s 1634 map of the town. Our extensive and eclectic collection also includes architectural drawings, auction notices and posters. The earliest map is Hare’s 1634 map referred to above; we have a unique set of copies of three St Albans parish maps from around 1810; and copies of the 1879 1:500 scale Ordnance Survey maps of St Albans town centre. Some material has not yet been included in this listing. For example, we have digital copies of the early Victorian tithe maps for the four St Albans parishes as well as Sandridge. We also have a digital copy of a rare map of the town in the late 1850s. All are available to view on computer. The listing was collated by Library volunteers Tony Cooper, Frank Iddiols and Jonathan Mein.

  • The Impact of Agricultural Depression and Land

    The Impact of Agricultural Depression and Land

    THE IMPACT OF AGRICULTURAL DEPRESSION AND LAND OWNERSHIP CHANGE ON THE COUNTY OF HERTFORDSHIRE, c.1870-1914 Julie Patricia Moore Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD September 2010 2 ABSTRACT The focus of this research has been on how the county of Hertfordshire negotiated the economic, social and political changes of the late nineteenth century. A rural county sitting within just twenty miles of the nation’s capital, Hertfordshire experienced agricultural depression and a falling rural population, whilst at the same time seeing the arrival of growing numbers of wealthy, professional people whose economic focus was on London but who sought their own little patch of the rural experience. The question of just what constituted that rural experience was played out in the local newspapers and these give a valuable insight into how the farmers of the county sought to establish their own claim to be at the heart of the rural, in the face of an alternative interpretation which was grounded in urban assumptions of the social value of the countryside as the stable heart of the nation. The widening of the franchise, increased levels of food imports and fears over the depopulation of the villages reduced the influence of farmers in directing the debate over the future of the countryside. This study is unusual in that it builds a comprehensive picture of how agricultural depression was experienced in one farming community, before considering how farmers’ attempts to claim ownership of the ‘special’ place of the rural were unsuccessful economically, socially and politically.

  • Great Hormead Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan

    Great Hormead Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan

    GREAT HORMEAD CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL AND MANAGEMENT PLAN ADOPTED JULY 2018 A significant characteristic of Great Hormead is the high number of thatched properties which represent about 50% of the listed buildings in the conservation area. Another important feature is the tree and hedgerow cover and its relationship with the historic built form. Nikolaus Pevsner, the noted architectural historian, refers to the main village street as being 'uncommonly charming'.

    East Herts District Council Heritage at Risk Register 2019/20 Update

    East Herts District Council Heritage at Risk Register 2019/20 Update Original 2006 Register by Beams Ltd Updated by East Herts District Council Conservation & Urban Design Team 1.0 Summary 1.1 Historic England produces an annual Register of Heritage at Risk. Outside of London it does not include Grade II listed buildings, apart from churches. In 2005 East Herts District Council decided to produce its own Register to cover those Grade II buildings. A brief was produced and BEAMS Ltd, the trading arm of the Hertfordshire Building Preservation Trust, was selected to realise the project. 1.2 The survey work and original ‘Buildings at Risk Register’ was conducted and compiled by BEAMS Ltd in 2006. Officers from East Herts District Council updated the Register in 2012/2013, and again in 2016, 2017, and 2018, when they resurveyed the entries and also considered a number of other buildings in poor condition that have come to light in the course of carrying out an on-going Conservation Area Review. 1.3 The register has now been updated for 2019. This update to the Heritage at Risk Register has removed a number of entries (-10) and included those new discoveries deemed appropriate (+ 1). Of the 10 entries removed, 8 were restored or repaired so that their survival is no longer at risk, and 2 were lost. 1.4 Within staff resources this revised register will be monitored. Owners of buildings will be contacted with a view of providing them with advice and assistance. Their responses may influence decision making relating to grant assistance and the planning process generally.
