Introduction This statement relates to the proposals for a temporary visitor welcome centre, temporary car park and a small natural play area within the grounds of Ushaw. It is part of ongoing plans to enable people to enjoy the cultural and heritage assets of Ushaw by improving and increasing public access and raising income to support and protect our estate and buildings. This document should be read in conjunction with accompanying plans and documents. 2. Context 2.1. Site Details Site address: Woodland Road, Durham, DH7 9RH The site is an area of High Landscape Value and Historic Parkland 3 Figure 1 Ariel view from the north The proposed works are to three areas in the grounds located to the south east of the main estate buildings; 1. the terraced car park (former tennis courts) south of the Bounds playing field to house the new Visitor Welcome Centre 2. scrub and woodland area to the east of the car park in above to form natural play area for young children 3. a section of the parkland adjacent to the main drive to create a temporary car park. Ushaw Design & Access Statement Planning Permission April 2021 2.2 Site Context Ushaw Historic House, Chapels, and Gardens, formerly St Cuthbert’s College, is an estate of 550 acres. Dating back to 1808 the former seminary consists of Listed Buildings of Grade 1, II* and II. Sited on the hilltop the main estate buildings sit in an area of High Landscape value and are circled by formal gardens, woodlands and a playing field. Agricultural land, willow fields and park land span out towards the villages of Ushaw Moor, Bearpark and Esh. 2.3 History and Description The development of Ushaw College as a Catholic seminary began in the early 19th century. The members of the college, which since persecution in England in Elizabethan times had been resident in Douai, Northern France, were evicted from their college buildings in 1793, and imprisoned. Following release and deportation, the group assembled in the North East of England, and after temporary homes at Tudhoe and Pontop, they acquired Crook Hall as a base in October 1794. This was never seen as a permanent home, and the farm and land at Ushaw were purchased in 1799. Building commenced in 1804 and the new College was occupied in 1808. The Georgian Quadrangle was completed in 1819. 4 After a period of consolidation, there followed a stage of continuous development and expansion from around 1840 into the twentieth century. At its peak there numbered some 450 pupils and seminarians. The later part of the twentieth century saw the decline of the college, with the Junior House closing in 1972. In the 1990’s the college attempted to offset the reduction in the number of seminarians by the development of a conference facility. After a promising period however, during which a proposal to close the seminary was successfully resisted, the financial recession resulted in falling trade and the Trustees of Ushaw College took the decision to close the seminary. This took place in June of 2011; the conference facility having closed the previous Christmas. Since the closure of the Seminary, Ushaw has developed a relationship with various tenants, including Durham University, Durham County Council and numerous individuals, whereby it has leased accommodation for a variety of purposes. This is an ongoing and developing situation. Ushaw is an astonishing and extensive collection of buildings, many of outstanding architectural quality designed by a number of famous architects, namely A W Pugin, his son Edward Pugin, and Joseph and Charles Hansom. The extensive grounds and broader estate are themselves an appropriate and significant setting for the historic buildings and include the unique wall game Ushaw Design & Access Statement Planning Permission April 2021 area, “the Bounds”, to the east of the main buildings. There are many historic artefacts relating to the history of the Seminary and the life of the staff and students. There is also a magnificent Library stocked with historic books and publications. The 550 acres of agricultural, parkland, and formal gardens of Ushaw include significant areas of High Landscape Value. During the years as a seminary the grounds provided sports pitches, the hand ball courts are still on the Bounds and adjacent to the Junior House, and Cat rings seen on the Bounds playing fields. A walled garden behind the Bounds walls provided food to the kitchens, and the estate was to a certain extent self-sustaining. 3. Ushaw and The Durham County Plan 2020 As heritage and visitor attraction Ushaw sees itself as playing an intrinsic role in raising the profile of the heritage and visitor assets of County Durham. Ushaw’s ambition is to: To develop the Ushaw estate into a sustainable and vibrant resource for the North of England, where lives are enhanced/ enriched through heritage, culture and creative experiences accessible to all 5 The plans for the future of Ushaw, which this planning application is part of, works alongside the Durham County Plan 2020. Below outlines how we aim to address appropriate policies as part of this proposal. 3.1. Policy 7 Visitor Attractions The visitor sector is an important and resilient part of the county's economy. In order to raise the quality of the visitor experience, the provision of new visitor attractions, or the expansion of existing attractions will be permitted provided they are: a. located in sustainable and accessible locations, or can be made so; b. appropriate to the site's location in terms of scale, design, layout and materials; c. it can demonstrate the viability of the new attraction or, where appropriate, helps support the viability of an existing attraction; and d. it enhances and complements existing visitor attractions or priorities in the county and supports the development of a year-round visitor economy and/or extends visitor stays. Ushaw Design & Access Statement Planning Permission April 2021 Ushaw has grown as a heritage attraction from opening one day a week in 2014 to 2019 opening 6 days a week and welcomed in excess of 53,000 visitors over the year. Ushaw recognises that it is in possession of considerable heritage assets and is putting a great deal of effort into developing public access to these. Between 2014 and 2020 the nineteenth century chapels, public rooms, the museum gallery and gardens were opened to the public with conducted tours and visits. A concert programme was put in place with a broad content, residential and day conference facilities were being well supported. The Covid pandemic that struck in March 2020, subsequent lockdowns and restricted conditions have fundamentally changed the expectations of people about Ushaw and the offer Ushaw could make. For the majority of 2020, excepting around five weeks in late summer the buildings have remained closed to the public, while the gardens, grounds and broader estate remained open and available. This openness began informally with the use by the public of the open spaces as soon as restrictions permitted and was more formal from June onwards with a temporary visitor centre, car park charging and a small café serving only to the outdoors. Several outdoor events were organised under Covid -19 secure conditions and were very well supported. Visitor numbers were consistently high, even in the 6 worst of weather, with 3,000 attending the Illuminating Christmas events over several evenings. There is no doubt that Ushaw has become a haven for people seeking safe space and beautiful surroundings during the pandemic crisis. We estimate that some 30,000 visits have been made to the gardens, grounds and the broader estate. Our demographic has broadened, with many family visitors, including those with very young children. We have been successful in securing NHLF grants totalling more than £700,000 to support the Ushaw estate and operation during the crisis, and we expect that visitor numbers will be maintained and enhanced as we move into the spring of 2021. Noting that our visitor pattern and demographic has change switching our focus to the outdoors, we need to make provisions to create safe spaces to welcome significant numbers of visitors. As throughout 2020, flexibility and change management will be key to the development of the external offer at Ushaw In exploring the proposals for a play area at Ushaw a survey was shared with two closed County Durham specific groups on Facebook- Outdoor Mums in Durham, and Natural Parenting Durham (https://www.facebook.com/groups/332455918170601 and https://www.facebook.com/groups/naturalparentingdurham ). These 2 groups were targeted as each had published recent posts mentioning Ushaw as a place to Ushaw Design & Access Statement Planning Permission April 2021 take children to explore the outdoors in the locality. From 142 responses 90% said a play area would encourage them to come to Ushaw more regularly. The comments included: “Such a lovely place to walk around with toddlers but a park would encourage me to stay longer as it adds an extra element” “perhaps more of a natural play area like wooden open-ended equipment.

  • Medieval Manuscripts in Ushaw College Library: a Fragmentary History
    Medieval Manuscripts in Ushaw College Library: A Fragmentary History Benjamin Pohl and Leah Tether (University of Bristol) The church completed, other buildings next Successive rose – a library well stored With many thousand books, encased in shelves Of cedar wood, in useful bindings all, And all arrayed with classic skill and taste. (An Old Alumnus of Ushaw College)1 The city of Durham is known internationally for its rich medieval manuscript collections, both in its Cathedral Library and in the University Library’s Special Collections on Palace Green, thanks in no small measure to the highly productive scriptorium and well-stocked monastic library of Durham’s medieval Cathedral Priory. Indeed, efforts are now well underway to recreate these collections and reunite their surviving books digitally, thus augmenting both access to and awareness of them on a global scale. Perhaps less well known is Durham’s other home for medieval manuscripts, located just a few miles from the peninsula upon which the aforementioned repositories are sited: the Big Library of the former Catholic seminary of Ushaw College near Ushaw Moor, founded in 1808. Ushaw’s Big Library is aptly named, for it easily – and quite deliberately – rivals, in splendour, size and contents, the great College libraries of Oxford and Cambridge.2 Built to house the College’s burgeoning book collections, its construction was completed in 1851 after a design by Charles and Joseph Hansom; a previous design by famed architect Augustus Pugin had been rejected, less for aesthetic reasons than precisely because it was deemed too small.3 Owing to its original purpose as a domestic library purely for staff and seminarians, Ushaw Library’s rich collections were not publicly accessible until 1 An Old Alumnus, Records and Recollections of St.

  • Miners' Houses: South Wales and the Great Northern Coalfield, 1880–1914
    M. J. DA UNTON MINERS' HOUSES: SOUTH WALES AND THE GREAT NORTHERN COALFIELD, 1880-1914 Accidents of personal biography are perhaps not the most sensible way by which to select topics for historical research, yet it was a fortuitous move from Cardiff to Durham which created an initial curiosity about the char- acter of the coalfields in the two areas. No one could miss the difference of landscape between, on the one hand, the linear communities stretching along the deep and narrow South Wales valleys, amidst soaring mountains and spoil heaps and, on the other hand, the sprinkling of nucleated pit villages within the drab, undulating topography of County Durham. The belief that a comparison of these areas might be a topic of more than purely personal interest arose from two considerations. The first was a growing dissatisfaction with much traditional labour history. The contrast between the South Wales and Great Northern coalfields had in fact been studied by a number of authors, but in an attempt to explain why South Wales was militant and the North-East moderate. It is not simply that this problem is misspecified for most of the nineteenth century, but that it neglects many other matters which, it could be argued, were of greater significance. There has been a general over- emphasis in British labour history upon the institutions of the organised workers, and particularly in circumstances of conflict. This has been true of no group more than the miners. The spate of histories commissioned by the miners in the various coalfields has been overwhelmingly concerned with the creation of the bureaucratic machinery, the struggle between moderates and militants for control, the analysis of strikes, and the changing political loyalties of the miners.1 The result has been to neglect some of the most significant aspects of the life of the mining communities 1 On these two coalfields, W.

  • A HISTORY of CLUB CRICKET in COUNTY DURHAM Chapter One
    A HISTORY OF CLUB CRICKET IN COUNTY DURHAM Chapter One..........The eighteenth century In the beginning The first recorded cricket match in Durham was at Raby Castle in 1751. It was five years after the Duke of Cumberland and bayoneted Redcoats slogged through the county’s mud on their way to the Battle of Culloden. Defoe’s account of his travels through Great Britain had not long been published. Defoe found nothing remarkable in Darlington or Chester-le-Street except “dirt” but was impressed by Lumley Castle and acknowledged Lumley coal the best in the country. He thought Durham a “compact neatly contriv’d city” where clergy lived “in all the splendour and magnificence imaginable”. Durham cathedral and Saint Cuthbert’s remains were a shrine for pilgrims but the city was a vulnerable haven riding on a cut-throat sea. The poor lived in slums; the populace was prey to vagabonds, footpads and highwaymen. The Bishop of Durham bewailed “the scorn of religion”. His flock scratched a living on the land or burrowed beneath it for lead and coal; their leisure centred upon drinking and blood sports like cock-fighting. In 1742 John Wesley came across a village “inhabited by colliers only, and as such had been always in the first rank for savage ignorance, and wickedness of every kind. Their grand assembly used to be on the Lord’s Day on which men, women and children met together to dance, fight, curse, and swear, and play chuck-ball, span farthing, or whatever came to hand.” Somehow, sometime the game of cricket took root in these parts.

Introduction: The Context for the Study • This study has been commissioned by One North East, the Regional Development Agency (RDA) for the North East of England. It examines the relationship between city regions and rural areas. In particular, the study examines the links between two city regions in the North East region (Tyne & Wear and Tees Valley) and the rural areas within and surrounding them. It identifies the types of linkages and available data sources to quantify the scale of flows. It comments on the current economic significance of such linkages and suggests ways in which their beneficial effects might be enhanced. • There has been growing interest in the concept of city regions amongst UK urban and regional development specialists in recent years. Academic researchers have long been interested in developing functionally-based definitions of different geographical areas, such as ‘functional urban regions’, ‘daily urban systems’ and ‘local labour market areas’.
