Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 2 of 18 1.0 INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this Strategy is to outline the Harbour Authority’s commitment to the conservation and preservation of heritage in the Bay and to identify the enhancement and development opportunities related to heritage that are likely to be available in the future.

The historical background to the City of Cardiff is outlined which explains why the area has such a wealth of maritime heritage. The aims and objectives of the Strategy are clearly established and an evaluation has also been included of the existing sites and buildings of historic importance within the built environment. The Harbour Authority’s support for their protection, conservation and enhancement is also clearly stated.

The Harbour Authority’s proposals for enhancing and developing the existing heritage in the Bay is outlined. It outlines how the Authority intends to translate historical facts and information into meaningful messages, which can then be incorporated into the built environment. This will demonstrate how cultural history and Cardiff’s industrial heritage can provide an essential element, fundamental to the creation of a unique “sense of place” in Cardiff Bay.

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 3 of 18 1.1 Historical Background

Wales was the first industrial nation created by genius, moulded from the land, crafted by many hands.

South Wales – Genius Loci

The City of Cardiff, and in particularly its Bay, is rich in maritime history. Much of this is a result of the Industrial Revolution of the 1790’s, which stimulated mining in the South Wales Valleys bringing iron and coal down to the Bay for export. This economic route between the valleys and the port resulted in a period of dramatic growth during the 1800’s with the construction of many major docks, including the Bute West and Bute East Dock. During this time, Cardiff grew from a busy market town into a great seaport and its landscape changed significantly with many fine buildings rich in architectural detail being built, such as the Pierhead Building.

At this time, Butetown and the surrounding dockland area also grew into a cosmopolitan community, with seafarers from all over the world making Cardiff their home. It is estimated that people from at least 50 nationalities settled in this area, which became known as Tiger Bay.

By the start of the 1900’s, Cardiff had transformed from one of the smallest towns in Wales to the largest and its port was handling more coal than any other port in the world. This industrial wealth lead to the building of the Mount Stuart Square area and in particular the Coal Exchange, which historically is one of the most important commercial buildings in Wales. It is stated that it is within this building that the worlds first million pound business transaction took place.

On the eve of the First World War in 1913, coal exports from Cardiff reached their peak at over 13 million tonnes. However, the tide of fortune turned after the Second World War when the demand for coal slumped and international markets were lost as other countries developed their own steel industries. Trade was increasingly lost to container ports and by the 1960’s coal exports from Cardiff Bay had virtually ceased.

By the early 1980’s, after the closure of the East Moors Steelworks, Cardiff Bay had become a neglected wasteland of redundant buildings, derelict docklands and vast mudflats. The docklands had given the city its wealth but then had been disinherited.

This decline was then reversed by the establishment of the Cardiff Bay Development Corporation in April 1987. Its remit was to regenerate the 1,100 hectares of old derelict docklands of Cardiff and Penarth and it was part of the British Governments “Urban Development Programme”. The mission statement for the regeneration project, set by the then Welsh Secretary of State, Nicholas Edwards was: -

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 4 of 18 “To put Cardiff on the International Map as a superlative maritime City which will stand comparison with any such city in the world, thereby enhancing the image and economic well-being of Cardiff and Wales as a whole”.

Whilst the main aims of the strategy were to construct a Barrage as a catalyst for the regeneration and provide new homes, offices and leisure facilities, the Corporation were very much committed to blending the best of the old and new in a unique landscape setting. They realised the importance of conserving the dockland heritage and the Victorian and Edwardian buildings and in essence the maritime culture of Cardiff Bay. This was in part achieved by the adoption of a Design Brief and the establishment of a Design and Architecture Review Panel, who were responsible for the preservation, conservation and integration of the regeneration scheme.

On the 31st of March 2000, the Development Corporation was formally wound up having achieved approximately 75% of the regeneration targets it had set. A mix of Housing, Open Space, Commerce, Leisure and Industrial Development had been created with areas of maritime and cultural heritage and the majority of historically important buildings being retained.

The Cardiff Harbour Authority was formed, as part of Cardiff County Council, on the 1st of April 2000. It then assumed responsibility from the Development Corporation for the management of the Barrage, the Inland Bay and the Rivers Taff & Ely. The Authority was also given responsibility for the land areas of the Roald Dahls Plass (Oval Basin) and the Graving Docks. In addition to its statutory functions, the Harbour Authority is committed to ensuring the preservation and enhancement of both the land and building adjacent to and within its ownership that are rich in maritime history. The Authority will therefore, reflect in its policies and decision making the existing strategies for the protection, conservation and enhancement of the built environment and the requirements of CADW, in respect of the numerous Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas within the Bay. This way ensuring that Cardiff’s maritime heritage is preserved for future generations.

1.2 Map of Harbour Authority’s Area

Operationally the Harbour Authority is responsible for the management of the Barrage and the Inland Bay, including the rivers Taff & Ely up to the weirs at Blackweir and Wiggins Teape respectively. It is also responsible for the land areas of the Roald Dahls Plass (Oval Basin), the Graving Docks and public car park adjacent to the St Davids Hotel.

Whilst the Authority’s land ownership is limited, it is committed to achieving and maintaining public confidence in the Bay and Barrage, whilst making the most effective use of the assets under their control. This includes both the protection and enhancement of the areas maritime heritage.

2.0 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STRATEGY

In order to formulate its aims and objectives for the Heritage Strategy, the Harbour Authority has taken account of specific corporate policy documents where these establish and outline the priorities and aspirations of the Harbour Authority with regard to the Bays maritime heritage.

2.1 Policy Background

The two policy documents below have direct relevance for the Harbour Authority’s Heritage Strategy, and therefore are included as an integral part of this strategy .

Ambitions for Cardiff 2003 – 2004

The Councils Cabinet Policy Statement, “Ambitions for Cardiff”, gives direction to the activities of the Harbour Authority. Of specific relevance to the Heritage Strategy is the fact that this policy statement recognises that “many aspects of the City’s built heritage have been successfully conserved and form important aspects of the urban fabric of South Wales”. For this reason one of the priorities laid out in the statement is the development of culture and heritage in the City, through the participation of its residents, and is stated in the document as follows: -

“The Council is committed to the development of Cardiff as a pre-eminent cultural and sporting centre of excellence in which participation is encouraged and celebrated.”

Harbour Authority Business Plan 2000 - 2005

One of the key environmental priorities set out in the five year Business Plan is that “the Harbour Authority will reflect in its policies and decision making the existing strategies for the protection and conservation of the built environment.”

In addition, within the Development Section a further set of detailed priorities are set out including the ambition that “the Harbour Authority will reflect the significance of heritage and art in the development of the areas tourism potential by investigating the development of a Museum or Heritage Centre, in partnership with other agencies.”

Also that “proposals for a Heritage Trail around the Bay, including historic plaques, places of interest and new public art will be explored in partnership with artists, the local community and other agencies.”

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 7 of 18 2.2 Aims and Objectives of the Heritage Strategy

The key Aim of the Heritage Strategy is: -

To promote and make accessible to the widest possible audience, the historical, cultural, maritime and environmental heritage of Cardiff Bay and its links to the outside world.

This Aim will be achieved by fulfilling the following stated objectives: -

· To raise the profile of Cardiff Bays maritime heritage locally, nationally and internationally.

· To maintain and preserve, existing artefacts, within the Harbour Authorities control, that are of historical value.

· To produce interpretative material on the heritage of the Bay and to make full use of technology, such as the Internet, to make information more accessible to the general public.

· To work with partners to use the Bays heritage to support learning in schools and to contribute to the County Councils core objective of providing a first class education service.

· To identify a range of future projects and initiatives which will contribute to enhancing the maritime heritage of Cardiff.

· To identify mechanism for implementation and the resources which will be used in achieving those projects and outline how they will be monitored.

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 8 of 18 3.0 EXISTING HERITAGE IN THE BAY

The land adjacent to and within the Harbour Authority’s ownership is rich in maritime history. It includes the Pierhead Conservation Area and a range of Listed Buildings and structures from the Graving Docks to the Pierhead Building. A full schedule is included in this document as Appendix A. The Harbour Authority will reflect in its policies and decision making the existing strategies of the County Council for the protection and conservation of the built environment and importantly CADW’s requirements in respect of the Listed Buildings & Conservation Areas. This will help to ensure that the built, maritime and environmental heritage of the Bay is protected for future generations.

There are also a number of buildings in the Bay, which although are not listed for architectural merit, nevertheless are important in terms of the maritime heritage of the area. These include buildings such as the Norwegian Church, built in the 1860’s for Scandinavian seamen and the Red House Public House built in 1899, who’s navigational light still appears on maritime charts for Cardiff Bay. Both of these examples are an important part of the heritage of Cardiff Bay and as such will be recognised by the Authority in its Heritage Strategy.

A further category, which reflects the existing heritage, is the many pieces of public art that can be found placed within the Bay. A full schedule of public art is included in this document as Appendix B. These are not only powerful mechanisms for conveying the heritage and history of an area, but they define, give a unique character, strong identity and sense of place to Cardiff Bay. The Harbour Authority is committed to protecting the existing public art in its area and to introduce new commissions, with the assistance of art organisations, which will enhance the maritime heritage of the area.

As part of its commitment to increasing awareness of Cardiff Bays maritime heritage, the Harbour Authority propose to produce a range of interpretative materials, in partnership with relevant professional organisations. These will consist of information leaflets about the areas’ heritage and public art, public information board displays and interpretative plaques for buildings and art works. Importantly, in order to make the information accessible to all, including those with special needs, the Harbour Authority is committed to making all of its information resources available on its Internet site. Thus raising the profile of the Bays maritime heritage locally, nationally and internationally.

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 9 of 18 4.0 FUTURE PROPOSALS FOR DEVELOPING HERITAGE

The Harbour Authority is committed to enhancing and developing the industrial, cultural, maritime and environmental heritage of Cardiff Bay. This way it can both promote and make accessible to the widest possible audience, the wealth of heritage opportunities that the Bay presents.

An important part of this role is the integration of existing heritage areas and major development projects such as the International Sports Village, into the Harbour Authority’s development plans. This will help to ensure that a shared vision and comprehensive heritage strategy is created for the whole of Cardiff Bay.

The Harbour Authority will achieve this integration by partnership working with key bodies including, CADW, Butetown History & Arts, CBAT – The Arts & Regeneration Agency, The Wales Tourist Board, the project team at the International Sports Village, local schools and appropriate conservation bodies and organisations. This is discussed in further detail in section five of this strategy, which examines how projects will be delivered.

The Harbour Authority has selected the following projects as its priorities because it is considered they will contribute to enhancing the maritime heritage of Cardiff.

4.1 Heritage Trails

One of the Harbour Authority’s priorities outlined within its Business Plan, is the completion of a 13km Bay edge walkway, known as the access to the waterfront project. This will provide a pedestrian and cycle access around the whole perimeter of Cardiff Bay. A large proportion of this walkway is currently in place, particularly around the Inner Harbour, and it has been enhanced by a number of pieces of public art, providing a vibrant and cultural environment.

The Harbour Authority is now committed to working in partnership with other landowners such as the Vale of Glamorgan Council, International Sports Village and Welsh Development Agency to complete this walkway. An important and integral part of this will be the progression of a number of Heritage Trails along the route. It is proposed that these could include a Welsh Walk of Fame, historic plaques to signify places of interest, in addition to an increased provision of new public art.

It is also proposed that literature and information leaflets be prepared to complement this work, which would provide a comprehensive guide to the trails in addition to having both a tourist and educational value. The proposed Heritage Centre at the International Sports Village Site, will also be central to the delivery of heritage education in this area.

This project will not only serve to increase the significance of heritage and art in the Bay but it will also assist in developing the tourism potential. It is proposed that the Harbour Authority will undertake this work in partnership with artists, the local community and other agencies such as Butetown History and Arts and the Wales Tourist Board (Herian).

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 10 of 18 4.2 Barrage Landscape – Age of Coal

This project entitled the “Age of Coal” involves the location of a series of exhibits on the Barrage Embankment that will both enhance the landscape and improve the embankments amenity value. The works of art, which will include a coal “dram”, will reinforce the historical link between the South Wales Valleys and the Port of Cardiff. This project will also provide both educational and environmental examples, such as alternative forms of energy and the geology of the area.

The “Age of Coal” exhibits will form part of the wider heritage trail, outlined above, that is proposed for Cardiff Bay and will also serve to reinforce the Councils commitment to public art provision. The development of such themed heritage routes is confirmed as a priority within the Harbour Authority’s Business Plan and will further encourage first time visits to the Barrage, by adding additional items of interest.

It is proposed that the project will be undertaken in partnership with the Rhondda Heritage Park, who may donate exhibits, and the Wales Tourist Board.

4.3 Redevelopment of the Graving Docks

The historic Mount Stuart Graving Docks are within the Harbour Authority’s area of control and provide a valuable opportunity to redevelop the area for both land and water based activities. A development framework has been prepared which gives due consideration to the heritage of the area in addition to identifying opportunities for educational attractions and public art.

With regard to the sites heritage value, it is proposed to reopen the raised headland area to the public, so that it will be possible to view the motors, winches and gearboxes that operated the dock gates. Interpretative information in the form of Display Boards and leaflets will be provided and a partnership with Techniquest to provide exhibitions will be sought.

With regard to the three historic dry docks, it is proposed to inject life into this underused area via a number of leisure related initiatives. These include installing visitor pontoon moorings and water taxi stops, the possible development of a white water canoe facility and gateway improvements to assist in promoting the area.

These comprehensive development projects will be undertaken in partnership with a number of key bodies including CADW and Techniquest, whilst additional funding will be sought from the Heritage Lottery Fund, Sportslot, the Arts Council for Wales and through private developers.

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 11 of 18 4.4 Heritage Centre

Within the Harbour Authority’s Business Plan a commitment was made to investigate the development of a Museum or Heritage Centre within Cardiff Bay. This is still very much a priority for the Authority. Investigations are currently taking place with regard to contributing to the Councils proposed “Museum of Cardiff Life” and also the “Maritime Interpretation Centre” that is proposed as part of the development of the International Sports Village Site. Both of these centres would provide an opportunity to increase awareness of the historical, cultural and maritime history of the City.

Importantly however, these centres would also certify that the history and development of Cardiff is inextricably linked with the development of Cardiff Docks and assure that the public are made aware of the contribution that the docklands made to the growth of the city of Cardiff.

4.5 Redevelopment of Maritime Structures

Within the Harbour Authority’s ownership there are a number of historic maritime structures such as the Coal Discharger and the Oil Wharf in the River Ely and the 5 Listed Dolphins and Signal Platforms in the Inner Harbour. These industrial artefacts relate naturally to the trade that took place in the Bay and are an important part of the maritime heritage of the area.

The Harbour Authority proposes to work in partnership with the International Sports Village and CADW to both restore and redevelop the Coal Discharger & Oil Wharf as an integral part of the development of the Sport Village Site. This will ensure that these important maritime artefacts are combined as a part of the design and development process for this area.

The 5 Listed Dolphins structures and signal platforms within the Inner Harbour are also of significant maritime importance as they were used for mooring and navigational assistance in the early 1900’s. The Harbour Authority has proposals, which include the restoration of these structures in partnership with CADW and increasing the amount of interpretative information that is currently available to the public.

4.6 Educational Heritage Projects

The Harbour Authority is committed to delivering a comprehensive educational programme with regard to the resources within its control, that is the Bay and the Barrage. The educational programme currently includes a Bay Water Safety Campaign and an environmental awareness project based on the Cardiff Bay Wetlands. The ability to deliver an education programme has been further enhanced by the opening of the “Learning Bay” a teaching and exhibition space in the Cardiff Bay Visitors Centre.

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 12 of 18 It is proposed that this educational programme be increased to include a heritage theme based on the maritime history of Cardiff Bay. This would include exhibitions and presentations in the “Learning Bay”, and the production of teachers aides and information leaflets, quizzes and trails for the students. All the work would be linked with the Governments’ Key Stage 2 Syllabus and would increase students awareness of the heritage of the Bay, in addition to reinforcing the councils commitment to providing an educational centre of excellence.

Harbour Authority Heritage Strategy Page 13 of 18 5.0 ACTION PLAN

5.1 Partners in Project Delivery

The projects for enhancing and developing the heritage of Cardiff Bay can only be achieved if the Harbour Authority adopts an integrated partnership working strategy. This is because there are many organisations and bodies that are key to the conservation and enhancement of heritage in Cardiff Bay and their support will be paramount if the projects are to be delivered.

In addition to Council service areas a large number of organisations and bodies will be involved in partnership working and delivery of the Harbour Authority’s Heritage Strategy. These are likely to include the following: -

· CADW · The Wales Tourist Board – “Herian” · Techniquest · Butetown History & Arts · Butetown Artists · CBAT – The Arts & Regeneration Agency · Vale of Glamorgan Council · Welsh Assembly Government · The Environment Agency · The Cardiff Initiative · The Welsh Development Agency · The Countryside Council for Wales · Rhondda Heritage Park · Heritage Lottery Fund · Sportslot · The Arts Council for Wales · Local Schools · Local Community · Local Arts Groups · Local History Societies · The Waterfront Partners · Private Developers · Other CommunityGroups

Once partnership working arrangements have been established, the co-ordination and implementation of all work will be undertaken by a project team within the Harbour Authority. This team will be ultimately responsible for the design, delivery and programme of the project and ensuring its quality control via a post project review. An important part of this will be the development of appropriate key performance indicators.
