Croydon London Borough
Croydon London Borough Personal Details: Name: Richard Chatterjee E-mail: Postcode: Organisation Name: Comment text: To the Local Government Boundary Commission As a resident since 1992 within the Addiscombe and Shirley Park Residents' Association (ASPRA) area, and who has represented the current Shirley Ward as a councillor since 2002, I hope that the following comments will be useful generally but especially in relation to Addiscombe and Shirley. The 16 'places' of Croydon were arrived at to meet the needs of the communities of Croydon and, just like the histories of Addiscombe referred to below, are objective and not generated for electoral ends; they deserve to be given greater weight than the council's proposals because of that objectivity and even- handedness. Identities If you ask people here where they live, they will give their geographical location, such as Addiscombe, Shirley, Purley, Woodside, South Norwood, Upper Norwood, Sanderstead, West Croydon, and Norbury. Some of those areas are large, such as Addiscombe (which naturally runs eastwards from the line out of E Croydon railway station and is centred on the Lower Addiscombe Road); beyond that, including the Longheath estate, people usually describe themselves as being in Shirley, and contact the Shirley councillors even though they are technically in the artificially construct of 'Ashburton Ward'. Geographic Shirley is greater than the current Shirley Ward, as it really comprises the stretch southwards from the Longheath estate, and to the Shirley Hills (which are also known as the Addington Hills, according to which map is being used). The reasons for these identities is the natural boundaries such as railway lines, the roads that glue the communities together (eg the Lower Addiscombe Road shopping centre has shops on one side and houses on the other that have permanent free parking outside; have bus routes that people from both sides of the road come together to use, and the Addiscombe Tram Stop; and socially cohesive pubs such as The Alma and The Claret). -

Cllr Godfrey
Culture, Leisure and Sport Cabinet Member Bulletin Councillor Timothy Godfrey January 2018 Latest News Live Well Croydon The Live Well Croydon Programme is making great headway in supporting Croydon residents towards improving healthy lifestyles, whether it’s signposting people to local opportunities to increase physical activity, provide motivation for those who wish to give up smoking or lose weight or improve mental health and wellbeing; our team of Live Well Advisors have so far provided initial consultations to just over 260 residents. The initial consultation is the first stage of the 12 month behaviour change journey and we are now seeing a number of residents moving onto the next 3 month review stage. As can be seen below, residents are achieving some very positive results from engaging in Live Well Croydon as they work towards their longer term health goals: Mr B – now a non-smoker at 3 months, has increased physical activity levels and improvement in mental wellbeing score. Miss J - 7kg weight loss at 3 month review, reduction in high fat foods and fried foods within her diet; improved mental health and wellbeing. Mr N - reduced calorie intake by 800 calories a day by making small swaps and increased his exercise from under 30 minutes a day to nearly 90 minutes. More information about the Live Well Croydon Programme and healthy lifestyle information, advice and support can be found via: https://www.justbecroydon.org/ Get Active Wandle Get Active Wandle moves into year 3 in January and is continuing to deliver positive outcomes for Croydon. The Wandle Valley Regional Park Trust have delivered a number of physical activity sessions in Croydon as a result of our support to this project and are in contact with us regarding the activities to be delivered in year 3. -
SECTION 3: Assessments of the AREAS PROPOSED AS PART of CONSULTATION on CROYDON LOCAL PLAN
SECTION 3: ASSESSMENTS OF THE AREAS PROPOSED AS PART OF CONSULTATION ON CROYDON LOCAL PLAN 81 1. ADDISCOMBE 1.1 RECOMMENDATIONS Current status An area proposed for Local Heritage Area designation during the consultation of the Croydon Local Plan: Detailed Policies - Preferred and Alternative Options, based on its architectural and townscape qualities. Criteria conformity The area between Northampton Road, Shirley Road, Addiscombe Road and Lower Addiscombe Road is an attractive residential location that is typical of interwar suburban development. It is similar to many others in Croydon and in the country. There are a number of notable well-preserved buildings scattered throughout the area. Addiscombe Recreation Ground forms the only distinctive landscape element in this area and it is currently on Croydon’s Local List of Historic Parks and Gardens. This status provides sufficient level of recognition and a greater level of protection than Local Heritage Area status. Recommendation 1.1 Designation as a Local Heritage Area is not recommended. The character of the area between Northampton Road, Shirley Road, Addiscombe Road and Lower Addiscombe Road is successfully recognised and managed by the general policies of Chapter 7 paragraph 58 of the National Planning Policy Framework, Policy 7.4 of the London Plan and Policy SP4 of the Croydon Local Plan. 1.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE AREA The Addiscombe area is located between Northampton Road, Shirley Road, Addiscombe Road and Lower Addiscombe Road. It contains a mix of residential character types: Terraced Houses and Cottages, Detached Houses on Relatively 1.2 Large Plots and Planned Estates of Semi-detached Houses, which reflect the 1.3 historic phases of the development of this place.This large residential area is composed of family houses with an integrated recreational ground and a church. -
