A multidisciplinary method for the documentation & propagation of a city's heritage: the industrial structures of Bradford, West Yorkshire

研究目的使用3D数字文件记录、解释和展示布拉德福德市全球重要的工业遗产，从而帮助保护它免受忽视和腐烂的威胁。在19世纪，这座城市是世界毛纺贸易的中心，并因沃斯特多波利斯而闻名于世(威廉·库德沃斯(1888)沃斯特多波利斯)。最近的报告强调了与这一遗产相关的一些建筑的重要意义和状况，并提供了通过磨坊改造支持经济和住房增长的再生项目的例子，同时展示了这些磨坊在原地建造中发挥的关键作用(历史英格兰(2017)繁荣的引擎：旧磨坊的新用途)。可悲的是，近年来许多工厂都发生了火灾(《每日电讯报》和Argus 2016年12月28日报道，六年内发生了103起米勒火灾)。如果在2016年1月毁灭性的大火之前对德拉蒙德磨坊的内部特征进行永久记录，包括“复杂的层叠椭圆形拱形木桁架系统”(列出的建筑入口)，它们本可以保存下来。布拉德福德议会已经提出了四个优先磨坊，它们将构成该项目的主要焦点，并对它们的背景和背景进行了进一步的详细研究：空调屋-列出的II级-1902年；标签为“全国重要的和全国同类建筑之一”(历史上英格兰关于规划应用)。低磨坊-二级建筑-1780年；约克郡第一家棉纺厂，失去了大部分相关建筑，面临着进一步迅速恶化或失去织物的直接风险(历史英格兰历史遗产濒危登记册)。惠特利磨坊-二级建筑上市-1863年；大型关联建筑群，其中一些是空置和破旧的。拉科尼亚建筑-指定遗产资产-约1880-1920年；检查已确认原始固定装置、配件和结构元素以及具有区域意义的建筑的异常良好的存活(WYAAS对规划申请的回应)。提案将在这些建筑现有记录的基础上扩大。在许多情况下，这些记录很少，目前包括有限的照片、平面图和描述。目标-进行3D扫描和摄影测量，以数字方式记录被历史英格兰和布拉德福德委员会确定为优先事项的四座主要磨坊建筑。-制作感兴趣的结构的高度详细的模型，作为数字记录，然后作为再生工作的一部分进行改建，并防止进一步的损失。-整理与这些标志性建筑相关的档案资料(口头叙述、照片、报纸等)，以制作有关布拉德福德工业磨坊及其遗产的生活方方面面的全面图景--磨坊生命周期中各个结构和布拉德福德地区的形象。-收集这些建筑传记，以开发互动故事，向学校和更广泛的公众展示。-开发和测试面向不同受众的可访问格式，为后代提供布拉德福德遗产这一重要遗产的互动记录。总体而言，这项工作将极大地细化对布拉德福德遗产的更广泛理解，并保护重要信息。拟议的博士学位是及时的，因为布拉德福德委员会预计HLF城镇景观遗产项目将开始，该项目将专注于布拉德福德城镇顶部的相关物业。

RESEARCH AIMTo record, interpret and present the globally important industrial heritage of the City of Bradford using 3D digital documentation, thereby also helping to safeguard it from the threat of neglect and decay.CONTEXT & SIGNIFICANCEBradford's industrial heritage is of international significance. During the 19th century the city was the centre of the world's worsted trade and became renowned as Worstedopolis (William Cudworth (1888) Worstedopolis). Recent reports have highlighted the critical significance and state of some of the buildings associated with this heritage and provide examples of regeneration projects that have supported economic and housing growth through mill conversion, along with displaying the key roles that such mills play in place-making (Historic England (2017) Engines of Prosperity: new uses for old mills). Tragically many have been subject to fires in recent years (Telegraph & Argus 28th Dec 2016 reported 103 Mill fires within six years). A permanent record of the internal features of Drummond's Mill, including the 'sophisticated system of laminated elliptical arched timber trusses'(listed building entry)could have been saved, had they been scanned before the devastating fire in January 2016.Four priority mills have been proposed by Bradford Council, and would comprise the main focus of the project, with their setting and context examined in further detail:Conditioning House-Grade II listed -1902;Labelled as 'nationally important and one of its kind in the country'(Historic England concerning planning application). Low Mill-Grade II listed -1780;The first cotton spinning mill in Yorkshire which has lost most of its associated buildings and is under "immediate risk of further rapid deterioration or loss of fabric" (Historic England's Heritage at risk register).Whetley Mills-Grade II listed -1863;Large complex of associated structures, some of which arevacant and in disrepair.Laconia Building-Designated heritage asset-C.1880-1920;Inspectionhasconfirmed unusually good survival of original fixtures, fittings and structural elements andisof regional significance (WYAAS response to planning application).The proposal will expand on extant records held for these buildings. In many cases these records are sparse and currently compriseoflimitedphotographs, plan drawings and descriptions. OBJECTIVES-undertake 3D scanning and photogrammetry to digitally document four major Mill buildings identified as a priority by Historic England and Bradford Council. -produce highly detailed models of the structures of interest as a digital record, prior to remodelling as part of regeneration work and to safeguard against further loss. -collate archival sources associated with these iconic buildings (oral accounts, photographs, newspapers etc) to produce a comprehensive picture of all aspects of life concerning the industrial mills and their heritage within Bradford -a persona of the individual structures and the district of Bradford during the life of the mills.-draw together these building biographies to develop interactive stories for presentation to schools and the wider public. -develop and test an accessible format for delivering to diverse audience, providing an interactive record of this important legacy of Bradford's heritage for generations to come.Collectively this work will dramatically refine the wider understanding of Bradford's heritage and safeguard important information. The proposed PhD is timely since Bradford Council anticipate the start of an HLF Townscape Heritage project tha tis focused on related properties at the 'Top of Town' in Bradford.
