Cliff was one of the most prominent ceramic designers of the 20th century.
Arts and Heritage Minister Lord Parkinson unveiled the blue plaque at her former flat on Snow Hill.
Thinking about it - what else are streets for other than people?
How come we get street design so wrong, so often?
And why, oh why when we get the chance to change, modify, upgrade or improve do we so often fail to seize the moment?

#OnThisDay - 22 April 1884 at 9:18am, an earthquake centered about 6 miles south of #Colchester and said to be the most destructive in the UK, destroyed the tower of Lion Walk Church and caused chaos and major damage in and around the town.

Winton Square and Albert Square conservation areas were actually designated in 1972. What has actually happened is the review which altered the boundaries for the other 20 areas over a year ago was not completed for these two and the council is just catching up on its paperwork.

Thanks @WakefieldCivicS for a brilliant day yesterday & tour of #Westgate#HAZ especially the Silver St timber frame restoration. A great example of #heritage led regeneration. Can’t help wondering about other medieval timber framed buildings still concealed locally @civic_voice
We enjoyed hosting the @civic_voice Convention. With a guided walk and then dinner at Create Cafe on Friday and then the day-long gathering of civic society members from around the country on Saturday at @CAPACOLLEGE, it was a busy but entertaining and informative two days.

Looking forward to presenting at the Civic Voice Spring Convention 2024 tomorrow. The theme is ‘How can a focus on heritage and culture help to regenerate our town and city centres’. I will probably be talking about buildings and trees. Thank you @WakefieldCivicS for inviting me!
