Project Aim
Assessment task details
To analyse, discuss and interpret an urban-led regeneration
and instructions
proposal that reflects the needs of the City of Salford, the people
that work, live, and visit the area, and the communities that are
situated nearby.

Project Objectives
The final report will achieve the following objectives:
 Describe significant understanding of the history of Salford
and the potential of the Islington area
 Set out what characteristics of the regeneration of the
Islington Mill would add economic, environmental and social
value to the city, and to those who will experience and
benefit from the area
 Describe the physical and regulatory issues arising in the re-
use of an existing historic building.

The Brief:

Background and History of the Site

Islington Mill is a cotton spinning mill built in 1823 by David
Bellhouse of Manchester. Its partial collapse in 1824 is one of the
well documented structural failures of early fireproof mills. Poor
casting of the fireproof was blamed for the collapse. It is a Grade II
Heritage Category Listed Building with List Entry Number: 1386142,
as first listed 04-Nov-1996. The building was listed as it is an
important example of an early 19th century fireproof mill, which is
of additional interest due to the alterations that were made
following its collapse. The development of the site is also a good
example of the adaptations and extensions typical of early mills
used as textile-working sites.

In recent times, Salford City Council through its 20 years

Regeneration Framework has achieved the following regeneration
activities to its credit:

the £550 million Media City UK development at Salford

Quays
the start of works to build Port Salford which will
potentially create over 1,000 jobs in the first phase with a
longer-term target of around 3,100 jobs
the £26 million Salford City Stadium and future associated
Assessment Information/Brief

 development
the completion of Greengate Square which is set to be the
catalyst for £400 million in private sector investment
new innovative projects such as the Soap Works and The
Landing
the revitalisation of key areas along Chapel Street and the
riverside corridors of the Bridgewater Canal and the River
Irwell
the £650 million scheme to transform Pendleton is
underway. It will see 1,500 new homes built, 1,300 homes
modernised and 500 new jobs.
None of these developments include Islington Mill and its
environs.

The Strategic Regeneration Frameworks

In recent time, many strategies have been developed to support the
regeneration of cities, towns and countries. Clear examples include
Redbridge Regeneration Strategy 2017-2027, Northwest City Centre
Regeneration, Greengate Regeneration Strategy, Wirral Strategic
Regeneration Framework, Mayfield Regeneration strategy,
Portsmouth Economic Development and Regeneration Strategy.
The Salford Central Masterplan
(https://www.salford.gov.uk/planning-building-and-egeneration/reg
eneration/projects/salford-central/) is a 20-year regeneration
initiative, and one of the UK’s largest development projects, ranking
25th in Planning magazine's 2013 survey of the country’s 100
biggest regeneration projects. The scheme has the capacity to
provide positive economic, environmental and social returns. All
these strategies are geared towards renewing and redeveloping UK
towns and cities to meet the changing times and needs of the
environment.

Islington Mill and its environment - which has many physical and
economic constraints - needs improvement from a regeneration
perspective. Several recent proposed developments, including the
new High-Speed Rail (HS2) hub at Piccadilly Station, the
regeneration of land to the north of the station, and the recent
growth in the development of mixed use investments around Chapel
Street (with the University of Salford and Deansgate in close
proximity), mean that Islington Mill and the surrounding
environments could be a vital link in the chain of regeneration for
the Manchester city region.

THE ASSIGNMENT
Your Role
You represent a firm of Architectural Technologists and Building
Surveyors that is proposing to create an alternative structure plan
for the regeneration of Islington Mill and its environs. Your proposed

Assessment Information/Brief

 client, Salford City Council, wants to commission you as a
regeneration expert, to submit a report setting out your own ideas
of how the area could be regenerated to provide the necessary
returns to generate/encourage actions.

REPORT FORMAT

Your report should include the following sections:

Section 1 – A description of the district and its surroundings (20%)

This section should include an analysis of the historic built form of
the area including the reason for a possible regeneration/renewal
effort, supported with maps, demographic and socio- economic
data. Map(s) showing the location of landmarks are encouraged,
primary and secondary evidence (graphs and photographs from
secondary and different sources for example) should be included.
(ILO 1,2,7,8,9 & 10)

Section 2 – Heritage and Regeneration (20%)

This section should include a discussion on sustainability in terms of
heritage-led regeneration, and the implication of urban
regeneration on heritage buildings. Align your explanation to the
feasibility, creative reuse of the existing building, and how you think
the regeneration of Islington Mill will enhance the surrounding
neighbourhood physically, economically, and environmentally. (ILO
1,2, 3,4, 8, 9 &11)

Section 3 – Social Value Implication (20%)

This section should include a clear discussion encompassing safety,
social inclusion, local social networks, spatial integration, cultural
heritage, and wellbeing. You should also discuss the implication of
regenerating listed building such as the Islington Mill in the
surrounding environment particularly, and in the Northwest in
general. (ILO 2, 3, 4, 6, 7,10 & 12)

Section 4 – The Proposal (30%)

Provide ideas for a new use and an outline sketch proposal for the
conversion of the building together with an analysis of any technical
and regulatory issues to be considered in the redevelopment and
remodelling of Islington Mill and its environs for regeneration.
Consider in your analysis issues of planning constraints, listed
building constraints, fire regulations and disabled access. (ILO 4, 5,
10, 11 & 12)

In addition, 10% of the mark will be given for clarity of expression,

presentation and the standard of referencing
