From the guttermost to the uttermost and back
This article comprises an auto-ethnography of my life’s journey: I entered town planning fifty years ago and am now over seventy. It is a personal testimony of how my social class, gender, religion, education, personal characteristics, family and inner-city background contributed to mutual incomprehension, and not being taken seriously by the planning profession. Planning policies often appear to be based upon an impersonal and generalised view o…

Join the queue: Including women's toilet needs in public space
The trend towards desegregated women's and men's toilets, including installing Gender Neutral Toilets (GNTs), and the implications of revisions to the Gender Recognition Act for women-only spaces, have brought into focus the pre-existing lack of female toilet provision in the UK. Looking at the problem from a town planning perspective, I argue that austerity-driven cuts are coming together with GNT provision to reshape the public toilet landscape…
Religion and Sustainable Urban Planning: ‘If you can't count it, or won't count it, it doesn't count’
Sustainability objectives are central to modern urban planning. Originally, sustainability had three components, environmental sustainability, economic well‐being and social equality: planet, prosperity and people. However, the environmental aspects of sustainability have tended to predominate. This leaves little space for social issues and aspatial (non‐physical) factors such as belief and religion. It is argued, with reference to UK‐related res…

Making the Divided City Whole: Mainstreaming Gender Into Planning in the United Kingdom
Women have long identified the problems that they encounter in seeking to combine their home and work roles, in cities divided by traditional land-use zoning. This paper draws on work for the British Royal Town Planning Institute on mainstreaming gender considerations into spatial planning, including the creation of a ‘Toolkit’ to do so, along with research on accessible city centres. City-wide transport policies are examined, along with race equ…
Overcoming the Factors Inhibiting the Mainstreaming of Gender into Spatial Planning Policy in the United Kingdom
This paper investigates why gender is not being effectively mainstreamed into the work of local planning authorities in the UK. It discusses means whereby this reluctance might be overcome. Research undertaken for the Royal Town Planning Institute is drawn upon to illustrate the situation. Whilst generic mainstreaming is widespread, it predominantly relates to personnel matters and social policy issues; but there is little evidence of the mainstr…

Women in the Construction Professions: Achieving Critical Mass
This article addresses the question of whether an increased number of women entering the construction professions is resulting in the build‐up of critical mass, with associated changes in the culture of the construction industry, and thus in its organization and conditions of employment. It was found, from recent research, that little such change has occurred so far. Indeed the construction industry seemed to be so self‐contained and separate fro…

Planning and Toilet Provision: A cistern's view of planning
CS18: The City council will seek to improve de® cencies in the provision and quality of public toilets across the city. Where appropriate this may be achieved in new development. New public toilets must be fully accessible to disabled people and include separate children’s changing and feeding facilities. They must also be designed to ensure maximum safety and security. Bristol, 1993
Planning for Women and other Disenabled Groups, with Reference to the Provision of Public Toilets in Britain
In this paper the reasons why it is proving so difficult to implement enabling policies to make urban space more accessible for women and other disenabled groups, with particular reference to the provision of public toilets in Britain, are investigated. Toilet provision is described, and factors are identified which have contributed to the situation, with reference to the governmental, professional, and organisational context. Alternative approac…

The Reproduction of Gender Relations Over Space: A Model Applied to the Case of Chartered Surveyors
Chartered surveyors are one of the main groups of property professions in Britain involved in all aspects of land use and development: but only five percent are women. This paper discusses the dimensions of a conceptual model, expressed as a diagram, developed to demonstrate the role of surveyors in the reproduction over space of social relations: in this case the imprint of gender relations on the built environment through the development proces…

The Same But Different: The professional socialisation of estate management students reconsidered
This paper compares and contrasts two separate pieces of research on surveying students and practitioners completed in 1980 and 1991, by Martin Joseph and myself respectively. This paper discusses the differences in the two approaches to the research topic, and the changes which have occurred in surveying education and practice over the last ten years, not least of which has been the growing numbers of women entering an erstwhile predominantly ma…
You're Just Imagining it, Everything's all Right Really, Don't Worry About it”: The position of women in surveying education and practice
This paper presents aspects of research into the position of women in surveying, highlighting in particular the changes that are occurring in erstwhile ‘male’ technological and professional areas, which are experiencing an unprecedented influx of women. These changes are not taken at face value as necessarily being of long‐term benefit to women, an attempt is made to look beneath the surface to find out what is really going on. The current state …
