Interviewer is Jill Lever, and this is tape One A. And we’re going to start, Ted, as far back as you wish to go. Well as far back as I wish to go, is to some extent as far back I suppose as I can memorise. I can memorise some things intensely when I was very very young, like walking, so it seemed to me, a long distance, along the cliffs to Brighton with my mother, I always think I was about four or five then, remembering that. My mother had a tremendous influence on me, so I tend to remember things often through her. But my grandparents, with the exception...well, all my grandparents really were an absolute mystery, an absolute mystery in the case of my paternal side because I didn’t know them at all. In the case of my maternal grandmother, she lived with us at Hammersmith, in Ravenscourt Road, and she was an incredible lady. We had an interesting old cottage there, with a big garden for a cottage, and with a coach-house, and she lived in the coach-house adjoining, and it was always a mystery place that, because it was...weren’t always allowed in there, and when I could go in there, I had to be well dressed and behave myself, and it always seemed to me to be immaculate. And that was the strangeness of her. Her life is a mystery. She ran off, so we believe and understand, with a batman from the Army, from a very good family in Buckinghamshire, her family. She was expelled or something from the family. She had two or three liaisons. She was a real lady. But she had strong principles, and not about her sort of personal life in that way, I suppose, but about the way she dressed, the way she behaved, the way she brought up her children. So that even during the war, the First World War, when I learnt more about what she did, because she even told us about that, she had to take in washing to support the children, she could do that, and yet she could appear to be the grand lady as well. So she impressed me enormously. But she was always a great mystery. But my mother was, as I said, had an enormous influence on my life. My father was a policeman, a kind, dear man, but reserved; went right through the First World War in every one of the most terrible battles, and survived the lot. Would never talk about it. And... But she, especially when I was a young student, would sit up late at night, and we would talk and talk Edward Hollamby C467/22/01 F5868A Page 2 until one o’clock in the morning, she was marvellous in that way. And so, I, as a young boy, how did my interests grow? I’ve asked myself often, it’s curious that. I know, and I always remember, that it was about thirteen that I said I wanted to be an architect. I was very interested in woodwork, in craft work, as a child, and used to make both models, I used...I was a pretty good model-maker, model aircraft maker, and...but also all sorts of craft work that I used to do in wood, and it was perhaps that that somehow made me think of architecture, I don’t know. But I can always remember that it was when I was thirteen years old that I decided I would love to be an architect, not ever believing that I would ever be able to be such a person. In those days architects very largely came from a class who, maybe not even then were so highly paid, but nevertheless were from well-to-do or middle-class, upper-class families, or so it always seemed. However, I did at school get a scholarship, and was able to go to the School of Building and Arts and Crafts, which was, the junior section of which, from the scholarship, was known as the technical school, and there my interests of course broadened and deepened. I learnt not only normal conventions of language and literature and history and so on, but a great deal about using your hands and technique and making things. And then, from then I went on into the senior school, with the idea of becoming an architect, and was...so this was in the...by that time it was about the late Thirties, ’36, ’37 I suppose, May Morris had lectured and taught at the school, but she had left just a few years before that, but I didn’t know of Morris then. The School of Building and Arts and Crafts was marvellous, because it was both...it did what Morris had so much recommended; it taught widely over the whole span of the arts and the crafts, from figure painting and figure drawing to bricklaying and carpentry, and I learnt all the building crafts there. All of them? All... Ah. Bricklaying, plumbing, painting and decorating, joinery, machine woodwork; not plastering. How did you learn, did you go on site and do it? Edward Hollamby C467/22/01 F5868A Page 3 We did go on site, but much of this was done in workshops at the school, you built walls, you made joints and windows and doors and things like that, all in the workshops in the school. And was this part of an architect’s training, or was it a general...? It was a general training, from which you could go into becoming a craftsman, or you could go into becoming an architect, or...and any one of the other professions that were related. What, surveying or... Surveying, yes. And building managers and so on. Anything in that direction. So it was quite a wide span. But there was a section of it which was for architectural studies, and the tutor was Alwyn Waters, and Alwyn Waters was a wonderful man, what a tutor to have. He was, I suppose, a very late Arts and Crafts architect himself, trained at the Academy Schools, but he was such a wonderful teacher. He would... We were to go our own way, but whatever we did it was to be well done, was his primary, the lesson I learnt from him. But he was, God!, when I remember the beautiful drawings he used to make in chalk on the blackboard of construction details, it was absolutely incredible, they were like those beautiful drawings you see in the early books on building construction, but he would draw them in the morning there so that when we came in, there they were, beautifully drawn, and he could explain it all to us, and there it was, just like a beautiful drawing, all in chalk on the blackboard. And did you sit down and copy it? We sometimes did. In fact frequently would do that, yes. But we would also be lectured, or could ask questions about how it would be made, and how it would be done. So, that was the early part of my life there. And then... Can we sort of slow down a bit, because I think you’re sort of...we’ll be at the end. How many schools were there like that in London? There was Brixton wasn’t there? Edward Hollamby C467/22/01 F5868A Page 4 There was Brixton. Was that similar? There was I think also, in north London was... Oh there was Woolwich Polytechnic, but I’m not quite sure whether Woolwich had building studies. Brixton was the oldest one of those. Yes. But...and...but it was a very different sort of school in many ways. It was much more, I would have said less revolutionary. Mm. That seems... But going back to your first school that you went to, you would have been about five. Ah, well of course I missed that, my primary school? Mm. Yes. Well I first went to a school where nursery classes were held, it was infants, an infants school, and indeed... Now...yes. Yes, at the infants school in Paddenswick Road, there was a Miss Foxall and, I’m sure that was her name, as I remember her, because for some reason or other she remembered me, and we even had a connection in the early days, right here at Red House, as a mature man, long after the war, she had remembered me, and as much as I perhaps remembered her, but I always remembered her, I loved her. I stole the flowers in the garden of the Ravenscourt park caretaker’s lodge, beautiful tulips, to present to her, I remember.

  • Edward Maufe‟S Finest Church
    Welcome to the Church of St Thomas the Apostle, Hanwell. Churches are unlike any other building. They are places for our daily and Sabbath prayers, and a focus for our community and family. They are the places for the important times of our lives, for births, weddings and funerals. They are places of interest and are often a centre for social history, art and music. However, primarily they direct our hearts to the God and the gospel and provide a centre for our interior pilgrimage. As you walk through the church and the surrounding land it is very much like a pilgrimage as so much of the building or artifacts remind you of God. Elain Harwood of English Heritage wrote in 1995 : This is Edward Maufe‟s finest church. Many people regard it as being more successful than his Guildford Cathedral and certainly more cohesive and richly detailed St Thomas‟ was paid for by the demolition of St Thomas‟, Portman Square. This church was in fact on Orchard Street and was built in 1858 by P. C. Hardwick. A reordering scheme was started in 1906 under the architect Arthur Blomfield and in 1911 a new reredos was ordered , designed by Cecil Hare, Bodley‟s last partner and successor to his practice. A drawing by Hare exists showing the reredos although by 1911 the entire funds has not been raised for its manufacture. This reredos was installed at St Thomas, Hanwell in 1934. The 3 manual Walker Organ also came from St Thomas‟ Portman Square. The building stands on land donated by the Earl of Jersey and it was he who laid the Foundation Stone on 8th July 1933.

  • Text Cut Off in the Original 232 6
    IMAGING SERVICES NORTH Boston Spa, Wetherby West Yorkshire, LS23 7BQ www.bl.uk TEXT CUT OFF IN THE ORIGINAL 232 6 ORGANISATIONAL CHANGE Between 1983 and 1989 there were a series of important changes to Party organisation. Some of these were deliberately pursued, some were more unexpected. All were critical causes, effects and aspects of the transformation. Changes occurred in PLP whipping, Party finance, membership administration, disciplinary procedures, candidate selection, the policy-making process and, most famously, campaign organisation. This chapter makes a number of assertions about this process of organisational change which are original and are inspired by and enhance the search for complexity. It is argued that the organisational aspect of the transformation of the 1980s resulted from multiple causes and the inter-retroaction of those causes rather than from one over-riding cause. In particular, the existing literature has identified organisational reform as originating with a conscious pursuit by the core leadership of greater control over the Party (Heffernan ~\ . !.. ~ and Marqusee 1992: passim~ Shaw 1994: 108). This chapter asserts that while such conscious .... ~.. ,', .. :~. pursuit was one cause, other factors such as ad hoc responses to events .. ,t~~" ~owth of a presidential approach, the use of powers already in existence and the decline of oppositional forces acted as other causes. This emphasis upon multiple causes of change is clearly in keeping with the search for complexity. 233 This chapter also represents the first detailed outline and analysis of centralisation as it related not just to organisational matters but also to the issue of policy-making. In the same vein the chapter is particularly significant because it relates the centralisation of policy-making to policy reform as it occurred between 1983 and 1987 not just in relation to the Policy Review as is the approach of previous analyses.
