Introduction
The archive collection comprises a digital archive only. This includes text, including historic building recording; raster images, comprising photographs selected to support the historic building report which is included in the OASIS record; and the raw data used to produce orthographic images in the form of JPG photographs.
Project Summary
The recording was required prior to dismantling of the asset, to inform the process of dismantling and re-erection. Recording was undertaken to further understand the materials, condition, method of construction (including hidden constructional details such as fixings) and the method of assembly of the asset. A Level 3 analytical record is required for the asset. This has been specified in accordance with guidance in the Historic England document, which identifies that assets requiring dismantling prior to re-erection will require either a Level 3 or Level 4 record. In this instance, Level 3 has been selected because the asset is Grade II listed (and therefore of less significance than Grade II* and Grade I listed assets) and is not a complex asset. A Level 3 record is required to provide a detailed understanding of its history, fabric (including hidden constructional details), setting and significance. This is to aid understanding of the asset to ensure it is dismantled, protected, transported and stored in a way to protect the asset and ensure its long term conservation.
Re-Use Value Statement
This archive provides a comprehensive descriptive, analytical and visual record of the Pair of Stone Piers with Lamp Standards to West End of Mornington Street Railway Bridge.
The archive can provide information for any future research regarding the asset, which would benefit from an accurate record of the asset, which is otherwise inaccessible to the public.
The archive can also be of benefit to the management of any future works to the asset, which may require an understanding of its design and materials, as well as its significance, in order to guide development designs and the future management of the asset.
