Streets for All: Guidance for practitioners

The front cover of Streets for All: East of England which shows people walking through the leaf-covered market place in Elm Hill, NorwichStreets for All are practical guidance manuals aimed at all those involved in managing, designing or maintaining the public realm.  This includes councillors, highways professionals, landscape and urban designers, town planning and conservation staff, amenity societies, contractors and utility companies.  Produced in conjunction with the Department for Transport, each regional volume of Streets for All emphasises the need to take account of local identity and avoid standardised solutions.

The documents were published in 2005.  Hard copies are available from the relevant English Heritage regional office and electronic versions can be downloaded as PDFs from this website.

To support the Streets for All guidance manuals that have been produced, English Heritage has held a range of training events throughout England.

What's New?

The emergence of an organised fire service in the 19th-century has resulted in a proud legacy of civic structures across London, often combining architectural elegance with functional efficiency. Instantly recognisable and highly cherished by the communities they serve, their historical and architectural interest has been recognised by many of them being designated as listed buildings. Although a number are no longer in original use, a good proportion still serve.
