  • Cemeteries Strategy for the London Borough of Brent
    Cemeteries Strategy for the London Borough of Brent Table of Contents Executive Summary Section1: Introduction Section 2: Current Provision Section 3: Demand for Burial Space Section 4: Income and Expenditure Section 5: Key Issues and Areas for Development Section 6: Vision and Objectives Appendices Appendix 1: Legal Background and Statutory Powers Appendix 2: Action Plan Appendix 3: Consultation Report 1 Executive Summary Brent Council is a burial authority by virtue of the Local Government Act 1972 and is legally obliged to maintain its cemeteries ‘in good order and repair’ 1. It is not legally obliged to provide new burial space but the sale of space generates income that funds the maintenance of cemeteries and provides a service to residents. If the council does not continue to provide new burial space to meet demand, maintenance costs will still have to be met, creating a budget shortfall. The council owns and manages three cemeteries within the borough; Alperton, Paddington Old and Willesden New. It also jointly owns Carpenders Park Cemetery, located outside the borough within the area of Three Rivers District Council near Watford. Harrow Council owns approximately 25% of the burial land at Carpenders Park with Brent managing the whole cemetery as part of a joint delivery arrangement. The council is currently exploring options for the grounds maintenance and management of its cemeteries as part of its Managing the Public Realm project. The three cemeteries in Brent are traditionally laid out with memorial stones while Carpenders Park is a lawn cemetery with graves grassed over apart from horizontal memorial plaques. New land for graves is available at Carpenders Park but not at any of the cemeteries located in the borough.

  • Cemetery Records
    RESEARCH GUIDE Cemetery Records Research Guide 5: Cemetery Records CONTENTS Introduction Main cemetery records held at LMA Bunhill Fields (CLC/271) New Bunhill Fields, Islington (B/NBF) The City of London Cemetery, Little Ilford (CLA/052) The City of London and Tower Hamlets Cemetery (CTHC) Other cemetery records at LMA Indexes and Transcripts in the LMA Library Records held elsewhere Introduction Before the mid-19th century most burials in London took place in churchyards and from the mid-16th century were recorded in parish registers. Some hospitals and other institutions had their own burial grounds. From the time of the Black Death special burial grounds outside the City walls were provided for people who died from the periodic epidemics of plague which afflicted London. Land to the north of the Artillery Ground known as Bunhill Fields was set aside in 1665 as a plague burial ground, but was not used for this purpose. It then became a burial ground for nonconformists. After 1690 many nonconformist meeting houses and chapels were established in London some of which had their own burial grounds. By the late 18th century the London churchyards were becoming overcrowded. New cemeteries were established as private speculations generally offering slightly lower charges for burials than the churchyards. Some of these burial grounds were originally connected to chapels adjoining them, but were subsequently bought by private individuals. By 1835 there were at least fourteen such burial grounds in London including Spa Fields, Clerkenwell, opposite London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) where about 80, 000 people were buried. An enquiry in 1843 discovered that about 40 burials were taking place each day.

  • The Treasure Act 1996 Code of Practice (2Nd Revision)
    The Treasure Act 1996 Code of Practice (2nd Revision) ENGLAND & WALES improving the quality of life for all Our aim is to improve the quality of life for all through cultural and sporting activities, support the pursuit of excellence, and champion the tourism, creative and leisure industries. The Treasure Act Code of Practice (Revised) 3 Introduction Notes: This Code has effect in England and Wales; a separate code has been prepared for Northern Ireland. A Welsh language version of the Code is available on request from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. When the term ‘national museum’ is used in this document it is intended to refer to the British Museum in the case of finds from England and the National Museums & Galleries of Wales in the case of finds from Wales. References to the ‘Secretary of State’ are to the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport. If finders or others need further advice about any matters relating to the Treasure Act or this Code, then they are recommended to contact the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the British Museum or (for Wales) the National Museums & Galleries of Wales or their local finds liaison officer. Addresses and telephone numbers are given in Appendix 2. In many places this Code gives examples of what may or may not constitute treasure and provides advice as to how coroners may approach an inquest. It is intended to provide guidance for all those concerned with treasure. It is emphasised, however, that questions of whether or not any object constitutes treasure and how a coroner should conduct an inquiry into treasure are for the coroner to decide on the facts and circumstances of each case.

  • Statistical Analysis of the Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Acid Deposition in the West Midlands, England, United Kingdom
    Statistical Analysis of the Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Acid Deposition in the West Midlands, England, United Kingdom A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Avery Rose Cota-Guertin IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE Dr. Howard Mooers January 2012 © Avery Rose Cota-Guertin 2012 Acknowledgements I would like to take this time to thank those people who played a crucial part in the completion of this thesis. I would like to thank my mother, Roxanne, and father, Jim. Without their unconditional love and support I would not be where I am today. I would also like to thank my husband, Greg, for his continued and everlasting support. With this I owe them all greatly for being my rock through this entire process. I would like to thank my thesis committee members for their guidance and support throughout this journey. First and foremost, I would like to thank my academic advisor, Dr. Howard Mooers, for the advisement and mentoring necessary for a successful completion. Secondly, I would like to extend great thanks to Dr. Ron Regal for patiently mentoring me through the rollercoaster ride of Statistical Analysis Software (SAS). Without his assistance in learning SAS techniques and procedures I would still be drowning in a sea of coding procedures. And thank you to Dr. Erik Brown for taking the time to serve on my thesis committee for the past two years. For taking the time out of his busy schedule to meet with Howard and me during our trip to England, I owe a great thanks to Dr.
