Monday 13th January 2020

Dear David Cliff,

Firstly, I would like to thank the Planning Inspectorate for granting me status as an interested

party. Secondly, I would like to express my sincerest apologies for my absence at this

Preliminary Planning Meeting.

In lieu of my presence, I would be grateful if this written submission could be shared with the

Planning Inspectorate for the Preliminary Planning Meeting on the 21st January.

The proposed development scheme between junctions 65 and 67 of the A1 could potentially

impact my iconic work The Angel of the North.

I am of course concerned by how the proposed changes to the road and surrounding

vegetation may affect the viewer or visitor's experience of The Angel of the North.

At this early stage of the planning process, and without fully developed renders or visuals, it is

difficult to understand the full impact of the proposed changes.

I would therefore be grateful if I could be kept apprised as the planning process progresses.

With further information, new concerns may be highlighted, whilst others are assuaged.

As part of this initial written submission, I would like to impress upon the Planning

Inspectorate that it is vital that the existing access is maintained and that the site is returned

to a state in which to the original views of The Angel of the North are unencumbered by

vegetation.

I am particularly anxious to ensure that current views to The Angel of the North - from both the

train and the road - are not impaired by the proposed changes to the road and landscaping in

near proximity to site of the work. This includes the proposed rerouting of the road, widening

of the road, replacement of the existing bridge, vegetation management, and the erection of

gantries and display signs across the road. It is essential that any new developments do not

obscure these views.

It is reassuring to know that Highways England intend to work closely with Gateshead Council

to develop a coherent and effective vegetation management scheme.

Gateshead Council are aware of my views on the treatment of vegetation surrounding the

Angel of the North and the mound, and I have submitted my response to the Southern Green

proposal report separate to this.

Perhaps most worrying to me are the proposed gantries – some of which appear to span the

width of the road.

The Angel of the North has become a landmark for the North East and welcomes travelers

home. In my view it would be sad to lose sight of the Angel on the approach from the A1 – and

so I am keen to ensure that the locations of the proposed gantries do not interfere with these

views.




In turn, I would like to guarantee that access routes to The Angel of the North, both by foot and

by car, are not adversely affected by the proposed scheme.

I of course support any changes that are designed to improve or safeguard views and access

to The Angel of the North - and for Highways England to take a coordinated approach,

involving consultation with Gateshead Council in the development of their plans.

Many thanks for your time and understanding.

Best wishes,

Sir Antony Gormley

Tuesday 4th February 2020

To the Examining Authority,

I hope that the form of this letter is acceptable, to address all matters necessary for the 4th February

deadline.

Comment on Relevant Representations

I would like to express my support of the Relevant Representation submitted by Gateshead Council

and Historic England in relation to the preservation of access and views to The Angel of the North.

I of course support any changes that are designed to improve or safeguard views and access to The

Angel of the North - and for Highways England to take a coordinated approach, involving

consultation with Gateshead Council in the development of their plans.

As identified in my initial written submission, I am concerned by the potential effects of the

rerouting of the road, the replacement of the bridge, the installation of gantries and additional

signage, and the landscaping involved in the proposal.

These concerns relate not only to views towards The Angel of the North, but also to access by foot

and road to The Angel of the North.

The Angel of the North has become a landmark for the North of England, and it is therefore vital that

access and views are safeguarded.

This belief seems aligned with Historic England’s Relevant Representation referencing Schedule 10:

Scheduled Monuments 2) Non-designated heritage assets (para 5.125 NPSNN): The Angel of the

North. I share their concerns regarding the potential impact of the vegetation plan and the proposed

signage and gantries.

Comment on Hearing Action Points

I am reassured by the Examining Authority’s request for the Applicant to address Requirement 9(1)

– Update the Requirement to include Historic England as a consultation body in addition to the

‘relevant planning authority’.

Examining Authority Written Questions

I support the request for additional visual materials, including renders, to aid better understanding

of the potential visual impacts of the scheme.

Furthermore, I second the concerns outlined in RR-006 and RR-018, and therefore welcome the

Examining Authority’s Written Question 1.5.11. I am keen to receive further clarification on exactly

how, and to what extent, views to The Angel of the North would be restricted by gantries as stated in

paragraph 6.8.24 of the ES [APP-027].

Suggested locations for Site Inspections for consideration

In light of the proposed site inspection scheduled for the 31st March, I would implore the Examining

Authority to visit the site of The Angel of the North to assess the dialogue between the work and its

context, including the relationship between the work and the road.

I would be very grateful if the site inspection could involve visiting The Angel of the North by foot

from the surrounding footpaths and by road. I believe that the approach towards The Angel of the

North by car, from both directions, is symbolically significant. Views of The Angel of the North from

the road indicate a homecoming for many. Therefore, it would seem vital to drive towards The Angel

of the North, from both directions, to assess the current lines of sight, in consideration to the

proposed erection of additional signage and gantries across the road. As stated in my written

representations, I am anxious that any additional structures relating to the road do not impair or

detract from views of The Angel of the North.

Likewise, I would be grateful if viewpoints from the trainline towards The Angel of the North were

also considered during this Site Inspection.

Notification of wishes

I would like to confirm that we wish to continue to be considered as an Interested Party by the

Examining Authority and am grateful for this acknowledgement.

I would like to express our wish to make an oral representation at the Issue Specific Hearing. On

behalf of Sir Antony, I would like to politely request that the issue of The Angel of the North is

considered in the Issue Specific Hearing held on Wednesday 1st April to allow me to attend the

session.

I would like to confirm that I wish to have future correspondence received electronically and am

grateful for all updates on the process.

Many thanks for your consideration.

Best wishes,

Sir Antony Gormley




Monday 13th January 2020

Dear David Cliff,

Firstly, I would like to thank the Planning Inspectorate for granting me status as an interested

party. Secondly, I would like to express my sincerest apologies for my absence at this

Preliminary Planning Meeting.

In lieu of my presence, I would be grateful if this written submission could be shared with the

Planning Inspectorate for the Preliminary Planning Meeting on the 21st January.

The proposed development scheme between junctions 65 and 67 of the A1 could potentially

impact my iconic work The Angel of the North.

I am of course concerned by how the proposed changes to the road and surrounding

vegetation may affect the viewer or visitor's experience of The Angel of the North.

At this early stage of the planning process, and without fully developed renders or visuals, it is

difficult to understand the full impact of the proposed changes.

I would therefore be grateful if I could be kept apprised as the planning process progresses.

With further information, new concerns may be highlighted, whilst others are assuaged.

As part of this initial written submission, I would like to impress upon the Planning

Inspectorate that it is vital that the existing access is maintained and that the site is returned

to a state in which to the original views of The Angel of the North are unencumbered by

vegetation.

I am particularly anxious to ensure that current views to The Angel of the North - from both the

train and the road - are not impaired by the proposed changes to the road and landscaping in

near proximity to site of the work. This includes the proposed rerouting of the road, widening

of the road, replacement of the existing bridge, vegetation management, and the erection of

gantries and display signs across the road. It is essential that any new developments do not

obscure these views.

It is reassuring to know that Highways England intend to work closely with Gateshead Council

to develop a coherent and effective vegetation management scheme.

Gateshead Council are aware of my views on the treatment of vegetation surrounding the

Angel of the North and the mound, and I have submitted my response to the Southern Green

proposal report separate to this.

Perhaps most worrying to me are the proposed gantries – some of which appear to span the

width of the road.

The Angel of the North has become a landmark for the North East and welcomes travelers

home. In my view it would be sad to lose sight of the Angel on the approach from the A1 – and

so I am keen to ensure that the locations of the proposed gantries do not interfere with these

views.




In turn, I would like to guarantee that access routes to The Angel of the North, both by foot and

by car, are not adversely affected by the proposed scheme.

I of course support any changes that are designed to improve or safeguard views and access

to The Angel of the North - and for Highways England to take a coordinated approach,

involving consultation with Gateshead Council in the development of their plans.

Many thanks for your time and understanding.

Best wishes,

Sir Antony Gormley

I hope that the form of this letter is acceptable, to address all matters necessary for the 4th February

deadline.

Comment on Relevant Representations

I would like to express my support of the Relevant Representation submitted by Gateshead Council

and Historic England in relation to the preservation of access and views to The Angel of the North.

I of course support any changes that are designed to improve or safeguard views and access to The

Angel of the North - and for Highways England to take a coordinated approach, involving

consultation with Gateshead Council in the development of their plans.

As identified in my initial written submission, I am concerned by the potential effects of the

rerouting of the road, the replacement of the bridge, the installation of gantries and additional

signage, and the landscaping involved in the proposal.

These concerns relate not only to views towards The Angel of the North, but also to access by foot

and road to The Angel of the North.

The Angel of the North has become a landmark for the North of England, and it is therefore vital that

access and views are safeguarded.

This belief seems aligned with Historic England’s Relevant Representation referencing Schedule 10:

Scheduled Monuments 2) Non-designated heritage assets (para 5.125 NPSNN): The Angel of the

North. I share their concerns regarding the potential impact of the vegetation plan and the proposed

signage and gantries.

Comment on Hearing Action Points

I am reassured by the Examining Authority’s request for the Applicant to address Requirement 9(1)

– Update the Requirement to include Historic England as a consultation body in addition to the

‘relevant planning authority’.

Examining Authority Written Questions

I support the request for additional visual materials, including renders, to aid better understanding

of the potential visual impacts of the scheme.

Furthermore, I second the concerns outlined in RR-006 and RR-018, and therefore welcome the

Examining Authority’s Written Question 1.5.11. I am keen to receive further clarification on exactly

how, and to what extent, views to The Angel of the North would be restricted by gantries as stated in

paragraph 6.8.24 of the ES [APP-027].

Suggested locations for Site Inspections for consideration

In light of the proposed site inspection scheduled for the 31st March, I would implore the Examining

Authority to visit the site of The Angel of the North to assess the dialogue between the work and its

context, including the relationship between the work and the road.

I would be very grateful if the site inspection could involve visiting The Angel of the North by foot

from the surrounding footpaths and by road. I believe that the approach towards The Angel of the

North by car, from both directions, is symbolically significant. Views of The Angel of the North from

the road indicate a homecoming for many. Therefore, it would seem vital to drive towards The Angel

of the North, from both directions, to assess the current lines of sight, in consideration to the

proposed erection of additional signage and gantries across the road. As stated in my written

representations, I am anxious that any additional structures relating to the road do not impair or

detract from views of The Angel of the North.

Likewise, I would be grateful if viewpoints from the trainline towards The Angel of the North were

also considered during this Site Inspection.

Notification of wishes

I would like to confirm that we wish to continue to be considered as an Interested Party by the

Examining Authority and am grateful for this acknowledgement.

I would like to express our wish to make an oral representation at the Issue Specific Hearing. On

behalf of Sir Antony, I would like to politely request that the issue of The Angel of the North is

considered in the Issue Specific Hearing held on Wednesday 1st April to allow me to attend the

session.

I would like to confirm that I wish to have future correspondence received electronically and am

grateful for all updates on the process.

Many thanks for your consideration.

Best wishes,

Sir Antony Gormley
