Arndale in Partnership with Local Authorities : album of Arndale redeveloment schemes c1965 : Doncaster, Yorkshire - interior by mikeyashworth

17 2

A remarkable volume consisting of a series of photographs of completed and proposed schemes developed by the Arndale Property Trust Ltd of Bradford, West Yorkshire, but whose influence was nationwide and indeed, in the case of their Australian develoments, worldwide. It is not dated but, given the schemes shown and their status I would say c1965.

Most British residents of 'a certain age' will recall Arndale Centres - the most lasting legacy of this development company that grew out of post-WW2 land acquisition and redevelopment opportunities. The name is a portmanteau, adopted when the company was formed in 1950, from the names of the founders - Arnold Hagenbach and Sam Chippendale. Their primary function was the redevelopment of central areas of towns and cities - those planned on comprehensive lines 'as suggested by the Ministry of Housing & Local Government but also more 'local' schemes where Arndale worked 'in partnership' with the local authority. These latter schemes were possibly where they 'scored' as many local authorities lacked the capital to acquire properties for comprehensive redevelopment whereas Arndale's developers pockets were deeper and more flexible.

The early schemes were often redeveloments along existing street lines that re-institued shops often with offices to lease above, but, as the Sixties appeared, and following on from UK 'New Town' precinct developments and examples from the US, Arndale started to develop larger schemes of enclosed shopping malls and centres. Their largest, and probably greatest triumph, was that of the Arndale Centre in Manchester - a huge centre that took a very large chunk out of the existing city centre and that eradicated entire streets and street pattern.

When opened, and for many years after, Arndale's were highly successful. They often insisted on having some larger stores and 'anchor' tenants - such as F W Woolworth or Boots - to make schemes both worthwhile and to attract other smaller businesses and trade. They were seen as beneficial - sweeping away the old when Victorian buildings were regarded as 'tired' and much war damaged property was still extant. Now, with the benefit if hindsight Arndale's - and their competitors by other similar property companies - are seen as having been the first step in the homoginisation of the High Street. The architectural and build qualities were often not that high and the structures aged badly quite quickly. Many are now, in turn, being re-developed themselves. But, they play an important role in Britain's post-war social and economic history and the name is still familiar over 70 years on.

These two views, by architectural watercolourist Peter Sainsbury, show the in-development Arndale Centre in the Yorkshire town of Doncaster. As noted, Arndale's had started to buy up property on the site bounded by Frenchgate and St. Sepulchre Gate in 1959 and this large development finally opened on 4 October 1968 - wiping out a large chunk of the old street pattern of Doncaster. In recent years it has been refurnished and extended, to include a new transport interchange, and was renamed the Frenchgate Centre. As can be seen the two major anchors were major department stores both of which have now gone from the UK's High Streets - Littlewood's and British Home Stores.

The watercolours are marvelllous depictions of their age - the brave new world of Doncaster! - and show the very brutalist style of external architecture that many Arndale Centres used.

But, they play an important role in Britain's post-war social and economic history and the name is still familiar over 70 years on.

Again this shows two earlier schemes where existing street lines were retained. That in Accrington, Lancashire, was anchored by two big High St pulls - Marks and Spencer and F W Woolworth. The parade still stands but both these names have gone - Woolworth's totally and M&S having pulled out of a seemingly small reatil centre in 2016. I think Arndale went on in later years to construct a more comprehensive shopping centre in the town.

The block in Lancaster, dominated by the low rise offices, included a redeveloped entrance to the town's retail market.

But, they play an important role in Britain's post-war social and economic history and the name is still familiar over 70 years on.

This shows one of the company's earliest and arguably most destructive schemes in its home town. Arndale House, completed in 1965, sat on the site of one of the great Victorian arcades, the Swan Arcade, whose destruction was one of the early rallying points for conservationists such as John Betjeman. The 8 storey block still stands, having been vacant for a few years, and is due to be converted into flats. Showing how times change one of the debates about this alteration is the extent to which the work, such as to glazing, will change what is now seen as an importnat '60s structure.

It was designed by John Graham and Partners, a Seattle based architecture firm behind landmarks such as the city's towering space needle landmark and the Lloyd Centre Tower in Portland, Oregon and is believed to be their only UK building.

The cover photo shows the precinct constructed at Drumchapel, Glasgow, one of the City Council's vast overspill estates. It is taken on a suitably sunny day and amongst the happy pedestrianised shopping and rather Festival of Britain tripod, a branch of Woolworth's can be seen and Grant's the butchers.

These four schemes are typical of the earlier 'small scale' redevelopments although that in Shipley, Bradford, West Yorkshire, did form a part of a wider scheme with the local authority for a market square. The Shipley work included a remarkable landmark clock tower that still stands along with the units.

Armely, in neighbouring Leeds, shows a scheme that had an element of new car parking - often a feature of town planning at the time - and shows two major anchor stores in the form of Woolworth's and a small Tesco supermarket before they themselves found such units too small as shopping habits became influenced by hyper-markets and out of centre stores. Woolworth's also appear in the Mastrick, Aberdeen, scheme along with a Lipton's grocers store - again, just before the move to larger supermarkets took place. The Sunderland scheme is a more modest proposition of an existing street redevelopment but allowing for an Arndale House of offices to be developed on the upper floors.
