The casement windows depicted were either painted or could be the artist’s addition not reflecting the existing appearance of the building. For the levels of the depicted windows on the rear elevation do not correspond with the window heights on the west (street) elevation, and the floors would have been visible. Furthermore, at both these levels (ground and first floor) is a fireplace and it is highly unlikely that immediately next to the fireplace were large sash windows.

    LETTER CONSERVING CANONBURY FOR 42 YEARS WS NEW RIVER 400TH AnnIVERSarY ISSUE NE SPRING 13 NEW RIVer CeleBrateS ITS 400TH Anniversary By DAVid Ireland AND JacK LAMBert The epitaph to Sir Hugh Myddelton reads “He brought fresh water to London”, and on Sunday 29 September 2013, the New River, the aqueduct he inspired, celebrates its 400th anniversary. The opening ceremony, on Michaelmas Day, 29 September 1613, involved a trio of (more or less) Myddeltons - Sir Hugh, his elder brother Thomas - elected that day Lord Mayor of London - and unconnected playwright Thomas Middleton. Man-on- the-spot Anthony Munday described a ceremony involving 60 of the workmen, “wearing greene Monmouth caps”, witnessing fresh water (from the Chadwell and Amwell springs near Hertford) flowing for the first time into the Round Pond in Islington, and all because “long have we laboured, long desir’d and pray’d, for this great work’s perfection”.

Introduction Storah Architecture have been commissioned by Cognita Schools to prepare a heritage impact assessment for the adaption of 6-9 Canonbury Place, considering change from a conference centre to become a sixth form college. Listed Building Consent is being sought for the alterations. The building is listed, grade II* and is within the Canonbury conservation area. This statement has been prepared by Richard Storah, to address the requirements of Section 12 of the NPPF, in particular para 128, which states ‘In determining applications, local planning authorities should require an applicant to describe the significance of any heritage assets affected.’ The statement will consider the significance of the 6-9 Canonbury Place as a heritage asset and evaluate the perceived impact of the proposed alterations. 2.0 ! Historical Background 6-9 Canonbury Place is based around the reclad and much altered east wing of the earlier Canonbury House, the origins of which were founded by the Canons of Smithfield during the reign of Henry III. The built evidence suggests that the core of the existing building fabric dates from the house of Sir John Spencer (who lived here from 1570-1610), though prior to this the house in known to have passed through the ownership of several prominent post-dissolution figures, including Thomas Cromwell and John Dudley.

ON the southeastern side of Smithfield stand the remains of the beautiful church and once vast and wealthy priory of St. Bartholomew, founded by Rahere, the first prior, in the reign of Henry the First. At the time of the suppression of the religious houses in the reign of Henry the Eighth, it was distinguished by its vast extent of building, its beautiful and shady gardens, its exquisite cloisters, its grand refectory, its fish-ponds, and by all the appurtenances of a great monastic establishment. Its mulberry garden, planted by Prior Bolton, was famous. Passing under a gateway rich with carved roses and zigzag ornaments, we enter the fine old church of St. Bartholomew. As we gaze on the solidity of its massive pillars, its graceful arches, and the beauty of its architectural details, we are at once impressed with that sense of grandeur and solemnity which only such a scene can inspire. The remains of the old church are in the Norman style of architecture, and are apparently of the same date as the earlier portions of Winchester, Cathp^r?.!. Some notion of its former magnificen.ce.
