towards a growing emphasis on ‘soft’ location factors…this potential shift in location preferences of companies from ‘hard’ to ‘soft’ with the global transformation from a Fordist, production-based economy to a post-Fordist, knowledge-based economy. However, it may still be argued that both hard and soft factors play a significant role in a company’s location choice (Musterd and Murie, 2010; Dainov and Sauka, 2010). There is much evidence that those working in the creative industries are attracted to historic industrial buildings (Zukin, 1989; Drake, 2003; Hutton, 2006; Heebels and van Aalst, 2010; Smit, 2011), this attraction can be seen to be driven by two major factors or characteristics. For Champion (2010) it is a ‘hard factor’ in terms of an economic prerogative, generally the cost of renting a unit in a former industrial building is more cost effective than renting newly constructed units. As Champion states (2010:14): Underlying this is the idea that cheap space and corresponding cultural diversity are vital ingredients for developing creative businesses. Low-cost space offers opportunities for flexibility and grow-on space, which is especially important in high-risk, undercapitalised industries. The second factor is the design and architecture of the buildings in terms of the availability of large open spaces, their high ceilings and large windows that flood the space with natural light. Hutton (2006:1834) asserts that older building structures are attractive for new industrial enterprises with their, ‘physical configuration, durability and embedded construction qualities…material attraction…external building scale and style and internal building configuration’. These characteristics or attributes of the buildings are as important now for the new creative industries as they were in the 18th Century when the Strutt and Arkwright adapted Lombe's design. For Landry (2005), the combination of the hard and soft characteristics of many former industrial sites, once conjoined, generate what Landry (2005:2) defines as a ‘creative infrastructure’ and that this infrastructure supports innovation, incubation of businesses and the development of communities of creativity. In assessing the continued re-use of Darley Abbey Mills it is important not only to assess the ‘hard’
Table 3.1 ‘Significant sustainability adaptive reuse criteria identified in the literature and verified by project participants’. (Yung and Chan 2012:359) The social element of sustainability, within the context of the sustainable city, revolves around improving the quality of life of residents, similar to the phrase ‘sustainable’ it is vague and unspecific, but this lack of specificity is necessary as ‘quality of life’ will differ according to each individual, social or cultural group or even between nations. There are a number of definitions that are being expressed within the heritage community; Cutter (1985, cited in Fahy and Cinneide, 2008:371) defines ‘quality of life’ as: …an individual’s happiness or satisfaction with life and environment including needs and desires and other tangible and intangible factors which determine overall well being. Built heritage plays an important role in fulfilling some of the more basic needs of warmth and shelter and, Naess (2001) suggests that meeting vital needs is a key element of sustainable development. However, what historic buildings such as Darley Abbey Mills mean to the individual is also relevant in the meeting of higher needs such as belonging to part of a community, a place or a sense of achievement and/or fulfilment. Tweed and Sutherland (2007) suggest that heritage is a major component of quality of life and that our ‘…cultural heritage is an important part of societal and community well being’ (2007:62). Although this thesis specifically focuses on the Mills site, we cannot ignore its role in providing a dramatic backdrop to the Darley
replication of the research process itself, therefore, each researcher will have their own unique interpretation. According to Shah and Corley (2006:1823) whilst it is important that ‘…the results are representative of the interpretations of those experiencing the phenomenon under study. Shah and Corley (2006:1823), further state that: …data analysis cannot be judged on whether or not the results are replicable by another researcher. Interpretive data analysis is assessed on its ability to provide reasonable and plausible insight into a phenomenon such that a deeper understanding of the phenomenon can be gained. The interpretative school of thought defines, inherited objects and their corresponding values, as being ‘soft’ mental constructs. The result of this is that, values are allocated in a process of assigning meaning, which can differ temporally by reflecting the zeitgeist or ‘sprit of the age’; additionally assignment of meaning will differ between individuals, groups and communities (van der Valk, 2010). Consequently, objects such as Darley Abbey Mills may be defined within the interpretivistic tradition, as dynamic mental and subjective constructs and whose context, significance and value continually changes and evolves. Within this dynamic context, residents, designers and politicians should have the option of creating new forms of sustainability and reuse. For van der Valk (2010:30): This interpretative school of thought poses new questions such as: Is it sensible to prevent the further decline of remains from the ‘milieu de memoire’, that characterises an area? Is it better to continue the regional tradition in a new spirit? Do we choose to give shape to places with new notions and associations? Perhaps the strongest argument for a subjectivist approach to Conservation issues is the fact that Conservation is concerned with human choices and actions, not just with mechanistically dependent relationships, as such is informed by different agendas and value systems. Wells (2014:1) identifies that the study and practice of Heritage Conservation is continually informed by differing worldviews, the result is that a set
In recognising that definitions and interpretations of Darley Abbey Mills are a social construction, then it stands to reason that the actors, stakeholders and individuals will interpret and find significance in multiple unique ways. As there is little, if any literature relating to the sustainable continued use of UNESCO designated former industrial buildings, there is a paucity of research upon which to position the thesis. However, it is possible that by performing a thorough review of the wider Heritage Conservation, tourism and architectural literature, and relevant policy documents it is possible to use inductive reasoning to strengthen our understanding of certain situations or social constructions by generating new ‘areas of enquiry’ (Galland and McDaniels, 2008). In a similar vein, Jebreen (2012:170) states that the purpose of the inductive approach is: …to allow the result to emerge from the frequent, significant themes discovered in the raw data without applying any structured methodology. Unlike deductive analysis, where the key topics are usually reframed or left aside because a prior hypothesis is imposed on the data, in the hope of obtaining a desired result, inductive approach describes the actual effect of data on the phenomena. In other words, describing the data perhaps give insight about phenomena rather than supporting the result with the data. In assessing the suitability of this type of reasoning to this thesis there is clear evidence that inductive models are considered to be more spatially-related (de Noronha Vaz et al., 2012), this also corresponds to Norrström (2013) who sees the design process of the built environment as inductive as it considers ‘human wellbeing and stimulation’, and the multiple interactions they have with sites (Willson and McIntosh, 2007; Evely et al., 2008; Flint et al., 2013). 6.2 Areas of Enquiry Within the inductive process a number of ‘areas of enquiry’ emerged from the literature, for Groat and Wang (2013:352) within the field of architectural research, the analysis of the surrounding literature enables the researcher to develop a preliminary theory, which becomes ‘…a sufficient blueprint for your study’. The collection of data and subsequent analysis of the ‘areas of enquiry’ may be seen as a
The holistic nature of the case study strategy enables the relationships between the context of legislation, designation, ownership, stakeholders and economics etc. to be highlighted, analysed and explored (Groat and Wang, 2013). Additionally, Schramm (1971 cited in Yin, 2009:17) points out that, the key tenant of case study research is ‘…to illuminate a decision or set of decisions: why they were taken, how they were implemented, and with what result’. The adoption of a longitudinal approach in the formation of the Darley Abbey Mills case study will enable the charting of the morphology of the site, the actions of the actors and the impact of decisions to be charted and assessed. In a similar vein, Groat and Wang (2013) build upon Schramm’s ideas, when they stress that, it is not just studying a case in the field, but rather a matter of: ‘…studying a case in relation to the complex dynamics with which it intersects and from which the case itself is inseparable’ (2013:421). This view is also recognised by Alizadeh (2006), who identifies that, the case study approach places the researcher in a position to capture the complexity of the case. As Stake states (1995:xi): Case study is the study of the particularity and complexity of a single case, coming to understand its activity within important circumstances. From the above section, it is clear that the adoption of a case study approach is appropriate for the analysis of the historic built environment. According to Johansson (2003), an on-going emphasis and analysis of the contemporary events and actions that occur to a physical artefact, is another major characteristic of case study methodology within the architectural assessment of buildings. Johansson draws a distinction between case study research within the social sciences, compared to the field of architecture and planning when he suggests that an artefact may also serve as the focus of the case study, Johansson further clarifies this point when he states that: When a physical artefact is the case (houses or housing areas, for instance, instead of an individual or social group) the gap between case study and history tends to diminish. An artefact is a carrier of its history…the context of design and the context of use may be separated in time, but are often equally important to the understanding of the case of an artefact. In architectural
fundamental actions underlying the techniques of qualitative research are observing, asking and reading’. 6.6.1 Semi-structured Interviews Semi-structured interviews were undertaken with identified stakeholders, the interviewees reflect the four stakeholder roles identified by Wells (2012), as evidenced in Figure 5.3, and consists of regulators, conservators, interpreters and stewards. In addition to Wells’ four categories, the category of ‘Consumers’ has been added, these may be defined as individual’s who interact with, or are tenants on the site.

There has always been an embryotic relationship between the village and the Mills, each define one other, without the village the Mills lose some of their historical and architectural significance (Hawkins 2002:49) and visa versa, in fact, the village is one of the reasons UNESCO World Heritage Status was awarded (see Criterion iv). The development of Darley Abbey Mills will not be creating community spaces in their true sense, neither will it be creating educational opportunities, but rather contemporary commercial spaces where financial exchange is required to access it. Although the site has always been a working environment and as such there has been a lack of inclusion, this will remain the case unless you are willing to pay. In conclusion, the proposed adaptation and development of Darley Abbey Mills has created social and community cohesion that is underpinned by a sense of place and history. Unfortunately, the motivating factors that create this cohesion, is a wish to stop the proposed development, to freeze the site in time where it remains as an historic backdrop to their lives. In order for the site to be sustainable, freezing it in time is not a realistic long-term option, it needs to be economically sustainable and this requires a change of use to a more populist and public utility, but such a move is considered by the residents as destroying the social relationship between the Mills and the village, making this relationship unsustainable. As stated in 8.2.3, from the development of the site was small scale and focused on attracting creative industries, there was a unwritten, pragmatic relationship that existed between the owners and the local community, whereby the community were happy for ‘aspirational urbanism’ to take place, as it arrested the decay of the Mills and had little, if any impact upon the community. However, the plans to undertake large scale projects has broken this relationship between the community and the owners, the community have come together in order to protect their environment and sense of place, this will result in careful monitoring of any repairs or adaptations on the site in the future. 8.4 Environmental and Physical Sustainability The continued use of former industrial buildings and retaining old buildings in favour of constructing new ones plays an important role within the concept of sustainable development (Ball, 2002; Bon and Hutchinson, 2000; Caccavelli and
The Town and Country Planning Act 1990 requires Listed Building Consent to be sought for Internal alterations to Listed Buildings. In National Planning Policy terms we are guided by the NPPF which sets out a framework based on a presumption in favour of sustainable development. The NPPF supersedes numerous previous separate policies and of relevance to this application the previous Planning Policy Statement 5: Planning for the Historic Environment (PPS5) In particular NPPF policies paras. 56, 58, 60, 61, 62, 128, 129, 131, 132 and 137 are cited in support of the development proposals as set out in this application. NPPF paras.56, 58 and 60-62 reinforce the importance of good standards of design, the quality of development, a strong sense of place to ensure developments ‘respond to local character and history, and reflect the identify of local surroundings and materials’; seeking ‘to promote or reinforce local distinctiveness’ by ‘integration of new development into the natural, built and historic environment’; NPPF para.128 requires the applicant to ‘describe the significance of any heritage assets affected, including any contribution made by their setting...proportionate to the assets’ importance... to understand the potential impact of the proposal on their significance’; NPPF para.129 requires LPA’s to ‘consider the impact of a proposal on a heritage asset’, based on their assessment of ‘the particular significance...that may be affected...’, including its setting; NPPF para.131 expects proposals to ‘sustain and enhance the significance of heritage assets’ and to make a ‘positive contribution to maintaining sustainable communities and their economic viability and putting them to viable uses consistent with their conservation’ and looks for proposals that ‘positively contribute to the character and local distinctiveness’ of the historic environment, when determining applications;
between the owners and the monitoring bodies that resulted in the successful planning application to adapt the West Mills and Long Mill. The aim of the thesis was: To undertake a critical assessment of the impact of Statutory Legislation and UNESCO World Heritage Designation upon the sustainability and continued use of the late 18th Century Georgian Industrial Buildings of Darley Abbey Mills, Derby. This work has explored this aim and as such provides an understanding as to how the relationship between the ‘umbrella of protection’, the pressure of being designated a World Heritage Site and the stakeholders has led to an agreed strategy that, if implemented will secure the long term sustainable and continued use of Darley Abbey Mills. In terms of unpacking the claim that the aim of the thesis has been met, it is important to explore and reflect upon the objectives of the research. 9.1 Reflection on the Objectives of the Thesis Objective 1: To assess the historical and architectural significance of Darley Abbey Mills. From the secondary research undertaken in Chapter 2 it is clear that Darley Abbey Mills are internationally historically and architecturally significant, and that this significance is recognised not only by historians and cultural commentators but also through the formal listing and designation process of undertaken by International, national and regionals governmental and Non-governmental organisations. As explored in Chapter 2, the importance of Darley Abbey Mills is developed by a number of layers of significance that revolved around their role in the British Industrial Revolution, the remaining examples of technological innovation, the link between the buildings and the Evans family with the Strutts and Arkwrights, and also the relationship between Darley Abbey Mills and Darley Abbey Village, which stands as a testament of the paternalism and patronage of the Evans family as well as a living exemplar of one of the first Industrial Communities, a such it is late 18th Century Georgian Industrial Buildings and their juxtaposition to Darley Abbey Village that makes the site significant.

Use in 2012 – Patterns (Derby) Ltd; John Jepson Black Belt academy; Results Personal Training Condition in 2006 - Due to the parapet wall, the condition of the roof covering was impossible to ascertain. There are areas of modern brick replacements around some of the window openings. There are also areas of missing pointing. White efflorescence is evident on the masonry surface around where the grey plastic rainwater goods are located. There are also holes in the masonry at regular intervals which possibly indicates the existence of earlier cast iron fittings which may have failed and were subsequently replaced. There is a damp patch where pipes enter the hopper – defective pipe or inappropriate treatment? Condition in 2012 – Same as above. Description and Key Features- A 5 storey and 6 bay eastward continuation of Middle Mill. Evidence of fire-proof construction – cast iron columns and beams, brick jack arches and an iron roof.

Tenant Marketing and Digital Agency Moved into 1st Floor of the North Mill (Grade 2* Listed) I: When you moved into the North Mill, you were one of the first businesses back into the Northern part of the complex since Ellison’s metals vacated? R: Yes, that’s right we moved into the North Mill in November of 2011, so we were the first business back into that building I: What were your motivations for moving into Darley Abbey Mills? R: To be honest the main motivation was to get out of the centre of Derby, we were located at the bottom of Friar Gate, the location wasn’t great, we were near to a half way house and so had that element hanging around the front door which wasn’t good for the image of the business, it intimidated our clients and visitors, and it intimidated some of the staff entering and exiting the building especially when it was dark in the evenings, they didn’t feel safe. I: Was that the only motivating factor? R: No, no, the building didn’t work for us either anymore, it’s layout was higgledy piggledy, it was on different levels, so it was fragmented, it didn’t make sense. It was ok when the business started as we were quite small and it was convenient but for the business moving forward, we needed an open plan studio on one level. I: What actions did you have to undertake to get your business up and running? R: When we took the space it was an empty shell in need of renovation, so we put a kitchen in, filled in some holes, and installed a central heating system. We painted the floor too. I: Why did you paint the floor?
