  • From the Ward of Farringdon Within
    From the Ward of Farringdon Within “It is a matter of considerable concern that, over the past few years, residents of Cloth Fair have been disturbed nearly every night of the week by vehicles- principally black cabs – parking outside their houses for several hours at a time. Disturbance and nuisance are caused by idling engines, doors slamming, conversations between drivers, and coming and going of drivers (to the nearby 24-hour café), and by some people using the alleyways and porches around Cloth Fair as spaces to urinate in. This is a narrow street, with residents’ rooms – including bedrooms- being very close to the carriageway, and undisturbed sleep is impossible in these conditions. The fact that the parking in Cloth Fair is currently governed by single yellow lines, allowing parking between 7pm and 7am, has made it virtually impossible to do anything about this problem, which residents have been raising with their Councilmen for several years. The City of London Corporation is therefore urged: (i) to implement measures on an urgent basis to prevent vehicles parking in Cloth Fair between the hours of 11pm and 7am, Monday to Sunday inclusive and: (ii) to consider and consult on the range of options available for parking and vehicle access in Cloth Fair, taking into account the interests and reasonable requirements of residents, businesses and visitors to Cloth Fair and its vicinity.” For information From the Ward of Portsoken (ii) “The residents of the Portsoken Ward are becoming increasingly concerned about the increase in rent and the aggressive approach shown by the City Surveyor’s Department and the lack of consideration given by the City Corporation to the mix of shop units to ensure that they are compatible with a predominantly residential community.” For information .

  • City of London Spatial Classification
    LONDON ELECTORAL HISTORY – STEPS TOWARDS DEMOCRACY 7.8 LONDON AND SPATIAL CLASSIFICATION Note: Following the LEH website conventions, ‘London’ refers to the parliamentary constituency. ‘City of London’ is the spatial entity O! [London’s] Lamps of a night! Her rich goldsmiths, print shops, toy shops, mercers, hardwaremen, pastry cooks! – St. Paul’s churchyard, the Strand! Exeter Change! – Charing Cross, with the man upon a black horse! – These are thy Gods O London – … All the streets and pavements are pure gold, I warrant you. – At least I know an Alchemy that turns her mud into that metal – a mind that loves to be at home in Crowds... .1 ‘London’ has long meant different things to different people. As Charles Lamb’s enthusiastic commentary indicated, it catered well for those who could cope with its crowds and diversity. Administrative London, the centre of national government, overlapped with the legal and legislative centres of the nation, while the West End became the seasonal playground of the well-to-do and the home of smart shops, with poor areas providing cheap labour tucked among the grandeur. Eastwards, commercial and financial London focused on the port and the City of London itself. It had a different appearance: of wharves and warehouses riverwards, and dwelling-places and nearby counting-houses. To take one literary example, Elizabeth Bennet’s uncle Gardiner was a City wholesaler, living, as Jane Austen specified, ‘by trade and within view of his own warehouses.’2 But over time, the City’s business premises were increasingly supplanting residential properties within the inner city, as the march of London into Middlesex provided accommodation for the teeming masses of the metropolis.

  • October 2019 LIVERY COMMITTEE UPDATE ELECTIONS in the CITY
    LIVERY October 2019 BRIEFING LIVERY COMMITTEE UPDATE The Livery Committee has recently re-elected Vicky Russell as its Chairman and Philip Woodhouse as Deputy Chairman, for a further year. And with the election of Alderman William Russell as Lord Mayor for 2019/20, we can all look forward to an exciting Lord Mayor’s Show on 9 November. Please make a note in your diaries and attend this spectacular annual event. Having agreed the principle of a five-year strategy, the Committee remains focused on carrying out the planned review of its activities and programs. With Common Hall at its core, the Committee is making progress in other areas of work including its new website. Having accepted a tender for the design and implementation, the project should now begin to take shape and more information about this and other services provided by the Committee will be made available later. Prior to the summer break, the Committee commenced a review of its constitution, including its membership and terms of reference. These are agreed by Common Hall, so any changes would need to be approved there. To help inform the process, the Committee plans to consult the Livery, through the Clerks. The dedicated support for the Committee put in place last year, through the provision of a committee manager (Simon Murrells), has now come to an end. Going forward, the Committee will continue to be supported by the Town Clerk’s Department and should you wish to make contact you can do so by emailing the Chairman, Vicky Russell on [email protected] or Greg Moore in the Town Clerk’s Department on [email protected] Finally, a reminder about the Livery Committee courses that are organised throughout the year.

Of the numerous works that have been written on London, by which I mean more especially the City of London, few have been devoted to an adequate, if indeed any, consideration of its political importance in the history of the Kingdom.

  • West Smithfield Strategy
    Committee(s): Date(s): Planning & Transportation 26 November 2013 Policy and Resources 12 December 2013 Court of Common Council 16 January 2014 Subject: Adoption of the West Smithfield Area Enhancement Strategy Report of: Director of Built Environment Public/For Decision Wards: Farringdon Within, Farringdon Without and Aldersgate Summary This report seeks approval for the adoption of the revised West Smithfield Area Enhancement Strategy and to inform Members about the recently undertaken public consultation and revisions to the Strategy. Copies of the Strategy and the consultation responses are available in the Member‟s Reading Room. The City has adopted several Area Enhancement Strategies as mechanisms for delivering public realm improvements in areas of significant change, including the Riverside, Cheapside, Barbican and most recently Aldgate & Tower, Fenchurch & Monument, Bank and Liverpool Street Area. The plan in Appendix B shows the current coverage of the City by Area Enhancement Strategies. The Strategy has been developed to provide improvements to the public realm in the West Smithfield area. New developments and Crossrail will lead to increasing numbers of pedestrians using the streets. The Strategy will provide an improved, accessible and functional pedestrian environment that would support the projected increased pedestrian footfall, whilst supporting the activity of Smithfield meat market and the continuing operation of Bart‟s Hospital. For example, amongst other things, it includes the creation of more space for pedestrians, measures to improve road safety in the area and additional public spaces, seating and tree planting where appropriate. Also, the strategy identifies current issues and future demands and sets out a framework for addressing these within the context of existing policies and guidance.
