C. Hamburger Chairman of Building and Development committee, February 1952.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1952 the City Council published the abridged version of its 20-year development plan drafted by the former city Engineer W. A. Walker.&nbsp;The plan set into motion a slum-clearance and development initiative that had been discussed for a long time. Now, a clear agenda and goals were published. This is a reflective reading of some parts of this plan with the goal to understand the ways of thinking about the status quo of housing and urban areas that might have underpinned the decision-making of planners, architects, and the council in subsequent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Much of the document consists of a survey of Salford, its history, geographical features, urban condition, etc. and provides readers with a range of quantifiable data:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-verse has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fac73b96\">Population in December 1950: <strong>179,234<\/strong>\nRateable value: <strong>\u00a31,138,593<\/strong>\nCity Area: <strong>5,202 acres<\/strong>\nPublic and privately owned open space: <strong>734<\/strong> acres (14%)\nNumber of houses: Approx. <strong>52,000 <\/strong>covering 2,240 acres of the city\nMore than half of these houses were built before <strong>1890<\/strong>\nUrban density: more than <strong>40 houses per acre<\/strong>\nHouses in poor condition and to be \u2018cleared\u2019 in the next 20 years: <strong>12,355<\/strong>&nbsp;\nPersons in need of \u2018separate accommodation\u2019; i.e persons on waiting lists due to overcrowding: <strong>9,500<\/strong><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Problems outlined in the report<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Several planning problems or rather &#8220;deficiencies and defects&#8221; were found within Salford. Among them, the urban density and the proximity of&nbsp;<strong>housing and industry<\/strong>&nbsp;was given heightened attention \u2013 probably because of the conundrum that new housing was needed but at the same time industrial enterprises in Salford needed to be considered during the redevelopment process. It was not possible to remove existing industrial premises instantly which hampered redevelopment as new housing would have to be built around existing industrial premises. To resolve this problem a zoning plan was proposed that would \u2013 over time \u2013 separate houses from industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/09\/2ad965ea483a4787b956bca728dfc86f.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1214\" style=\"width:665px;height:488px\" width=\"665\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/09\/2ad965ea483a4787b956bca728dfc86f.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/09\/2ad965ea483a4787b956bca728dfc86f-320x235.jpg 320w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/09\/2ad965ea483a4787b956bca728dfc86f-300x220.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Rosamond Street Area, Trinity Ward, Salford, 11 September 1952. Houses being demolished. Digital Salford IS00542.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<strong>railway<\/strong>&nbsp;too was seen as a barrier for improvement because its \u201dimmovable features hamper redevelopment of a largely obsolete area of the City\u201d (p. 7) but it is not made clear in the report which areas in particular are referred to (train tracks, railway buildings, etc).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lack of a&nbsp;<strong>city centre<\/strong>&nbsp;and urban focal point too was pointed out, and that Manchester\u2019s shopping provision deducts attention from Salford. Therefore, the city \u201csuffers a psychological as well as a physical deficiency\u201d (p. 7). While the economic consequences of this lack of an urban centre are indicated in that shoppers go to Manchester instead of remaining in Salford, the nature of psychological and physical deficiencies are not clarified and left to the interpretation of the reader.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another problem identified in the report was the lack of&nbsp;<strong>open space<\/strong>&nbsp;in some parts of the city. Redevelopment of the most congested areas was planned but open space was thought of as only possible to increase with the help of \u201coverspill of population to other areas\u201d (p. 7). Part of this point was also that there was a lack of&nbsp;playing fields&nbsp;which could only be remedied if dwelling-houses were removed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Flooding<\/strong>&nbsp;of the river Irwell was the final planning problem discussed in the report but regarded as within the responsibility of the Mersey River Board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"401\" src=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/09\/3bcec8717998f4cd653317f06c96d021.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/09\/3bcec8717998f4cd653317f06c96d021.jpg 500w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/09\/3bcec8717998f4cd653317f06c96d021-320x257.jpg 320w, https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/222\/2023\/09\/3bcec8717998f4cd653317f06c96d021-300x241.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ordsall Lane Area, 1947. Digital Salford PF00018.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Proposed solutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<strong>Clearance<\/strong> of the dense and unhealthy areas which form a high proportion of the south-east and central areas of the City\u201d would bring solutions for these six planning problems. When carrying out this task, new challenges were made aware of as \u201ctenants dispossessed of their homes \u201d (p. 7)&nbsp;&nbsp;had to be accommodated and lower densities would replace overcrowded areas leading to a \u201cmounting overspill of population.\u201d (p. 7) The logistics of rehousing and overspill is also discussed in some detail as a main obstacle when carrying out the development plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, some <strong>redevelopment<\/strong> activities had already commenced in 1952 in the Trinity and Islington areas at two not further specified sites that had been cleared due to war damage. Another 15 acre area was also planned to be cleared in Trinity Ward. When reading the report it is not quite clear if the terms &#8216;clearance&#8217; and &#8216;redevelopment&#8217; delineate different concepts or are used interchangeably. &#8216;Clearance&#8217; delineates the demolition of housing whereas &#8216;redevelopment&#8217; could be understood to indicate a more complex process: the demolition of housing, the planning of new housing, and the building of improved housing. It appears that &#8216;redevelopment&#8217; was used in an aspirational sense in that the steps after demolition were already being considered but had not yet taken place or considered in detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another significant part of the plan was the assessment of historical value of existing buildings:  \u201cin Salford [there are] no scheduled ancient monuments [\u2026] and no structures of great antiquity&#8221; (p. 8). Buildings of architectural and historic interests were ten \u2018Class II and seven \u2018Class III\u2019 buildings, all of which were planned to be retained. Among them were Kersal Cell, Bexley Square Town Hall, Ordsall Hall and the Independent Chapel on Chapel Street. This selection of buildings of &#8216;architectural and historic interest&#8217; is of course highly subjective and very much a reflection of 1950s understandings of value and quality. Buildings with religious, political or age value were mostly considered as worth-while preserving as they were reflective of a historic, political, and socio-economic development over long periods of time. To preserve examples of housing, public houses or shops which were deemed parts of &#8216;slums&#8217; would have not been considered by stakeholders at that time. However, the plan does not make mention of the small-scale housing developments built since the end of the Second World War. Among them were a number of prefabricated dwellings. To demolish these was not surprising as they had been built to only last approximately 10 years. We have introduced to some of these <a href=\"http:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/2023\/07\/28\/phoenix-uk100-and-tarran-temporary-prefabricated-houses-in-salford-after-the-second-world-war\/\">&#8216;prefabs&#8217;<\/a> in earlier posts.  Other housing, however, had been relatively new in 1952. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;Housing Need&#8221; was determined from several observations and findings. About 25,000 houses had been built before 1890 and produced an urban density of more than 40 to the acre. All of these houses were to be replaced. During the next 20 years, the plan was to replace 12,355 houses on the most &#8220;obsolete areas&#8221; (p. 9). This number was based on <a href=\"http:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/modern-salford\/2023\/08\/29\/1950-health-and-housing-in-salford\/\">John Lancelot Burn&#8217;s<\/a> Slum Clearance Programme and on his findings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a table the total sum of houses to be demolished was calculated as 33,560 which affected approximately 114,164 residents. When reading the table, not all information that would be needed to fully appreciate the significance of it are provided. Burn&#8217;s report is taking into consideration but other items in the table e.g. &#8216;individual loss&#8217; and &#8216;less voluntary migration&#8217; (4,200 residents) are not outlined in detail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When outlining the &#8216;Estimated House-Building Capacity&#8221; it was estimated on the assumption that 360 houses would be built per year: 12,025 houses in twenty years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The programme goes on to discuss planned roads, utilities and social services (mainly schools) and finishes with a written statement by the Minister of Housing and Local Government that summarises the plan and adds some additional information on, for example, the proposed zoning plan and the population development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final page of the programme shows, with the help of a table, which areas of Salford are planned to be developed, in which time-scale, and how many houses will be removed, replaced and how much overspill housing will be provided.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The plan is based on a survey and on six \u2018major planning problems.\u2019 The basis for the survey, i.e. the parameters with which a house is declared a &#8216;slum house&#8217;, or contextual information about obsolete areas in relation to the railway, are not made explicit. Some tables, such as the ones describing the housing need (p. 9) and house-building capacity (p. 9) also lack context. No legend or explanation that help understand these numbers is presented.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the programme does not argue for the necessity of the development plan. It states facts and figures but does little to interpret them or to contextualise them so that the necessity and logic of the programme becomes apparent to the reader. It seems that the numbers were left to \u2018speak for themselves.\u2019 In addition, the number of houses planned to be built is ascertained but the type of architecture is not which seems to indicate a vagueness in the term &#8216;house&#8217;. Rather than &#8216;houses&#8217; &#8211; &#8216;dwelling units&#8217; seemed to have been  meant which later appears &#8211; at least in part &#8211; to translate into the word &#8216;flats.&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let us, however, be far sighted in our plans and not discard the desirable for the attainable \u2013 that which is right for that which is expedient.
