  • Queen of Hoxton Pro Sound News Europe Online FEBRUARY 2011 - Shoreditch
    Queen of Hoxton Pro Sound News Europe online FEBRUARY 2011 - Shoreditch On the whole, 2010 could be looked at as a pretty torrid time to be a self-contained music venue in the capital. The future remains uncertain to say the least for its legendary 100 Club; and at the back end of last year, The Luminaire shut its doors for the last time. But it’s not all doom and gloom, apparently. One venue that has kept London’s live music flag flying – well, at half mast, at least - is the Queen of Hoxton – which, actually, is located on Curtain Road in Shoreditch, and has been subject to a major audio overhaul. The venue opened two years ago, but things really started to take off in Summer 2010 when Roots Manuva was first to perform through the 200-capacity venue’s newly installed Funktion-One PA system. Since then, it has accommodated an array of popular bands and DJs including The Maccabees, Rob da Bank and Mat Horne; and a massive show from The Drums at the end of last year. “The response from artists about the new sound system has been phenomenal,” says the Queen’s Danny Payne, “Word has spread, and it’s been integral in attracting bigger acts to play at the venue.” The Funktion-One installation was undertaken by London headquartered Sound Services Ltd, and the main rig consists of a pair of Res 2s and a pair of F-218 subwoofers, along with FFA amplification and Funktion-One- badged XTA processing. Along with its state-of-the-art PA system, the venue now boasts a state-of-the-art Green Room as well, which is a dedicated area located at back-of-house with private dressing rooms and make-up facilities, an all important mini-bar, and a live video link to the main stage that can accommodate up to twenty people in privacy..

By the late 18th Century, Wapping made London one of the busiest ports in the world. The building of The London Docks transformed a small riverside village into one of the liveliest districts in the Capital. Wapping was a gateway to the British Empire, a commercial centre and a mix of cultural influences. Celebrated figures made their home here, like explorer and captain of the Endeavour, James Cook. A resident of Wapping in the 1750s, he later became the first European to master the east coast of Australia. Wapping was also home to artists and writers. Charles Dickens drew inspiration from the area during visits to his godfather in nearby Limehouse. Much of what he saw of life in the docks and at the riverside became famous scenes in his books like Oliver Twist and Great Expectations.

  • Campaign Fact Book Former Whitechapel Bell Foundry Site Whitechapel, London
    Campaign Fact Book Former Whitechapel Bell Foundry Site Whitechapel, London Compiled January 2020 Whitechapel Bell Foundry: a matter of national importance This fact book has been compiled to capture the breadth of the campaign to save the site of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, which is currently threatened by a proposal for conversion into a boutique hotel. Re-Form Heritage; Factum Foundation; numerous community, heritage and bellringing organisations; and thousands of individuals have contributed to and driven this campaign, which is working to: reinstate modern and sustainable foundry activity on the site preserve and record heritage skills integrate new technologies with traditional foundry techniques maintain and build pride in Whitechapel’s bell founding heritage The site of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry is Britain’s oldest single-purpose industrial building where for generations bells such as Big Ben, the Liberty Bell, Bow Bells and many of the world’s great bells were made. Bells made in Whitechapel have become the voices of nations, marking the world’s celebrations and sorrows and representing principles of emancipation, freedom of expression and justice. As such these buildings and the uses that have for centuries gone on within them represent some of the most important intangible cultural heritage and are therefore of international significance. Once the use of the site as a foundry has gone it has gone forever. The potential impact of this loss has led to considerable concern and opposition being expressed on an unprecedented scale within the local area, nationally and, indeed, internationally. People from across the local community, London and the world have voiced their strong opposition to the developer’s plans and to the hotel use and wish for the foundry use to be retained.
