  • 03K Appendix H
    Our vision for Loughborough Junction Our ultimate aim for Loughborough Junction is for it to become a destination in its own right; to be a place that is safe and pleasant for people to spend time in. At the moment Loughborough Junction is dominated by traffic – Loughborough Road sees an incredible 13,000 vehicles pass through on a typical weekday. In keeping with our priorities for the borough as a whole, we want to transform the area with open public spaces, safer conditions for pedestrians and cyclists, environmental improvements and a greater mix of retail outlets. This will make Loughborough Junction a place where people want to ‘be’, rather than just travel through. The police have lent their support to the scheme, pointing out that less through traffic on roads improves safety for residents, children and cyclists, with road closures also likely to reduce crime as back streets are usually used as escapes routes by criminals. We also want the new Loughborough Junction to be an area where businesses will thrive. There is huge potential for more shops and restaurants and I believe that trade can increase as the area becomes a more popular destination rather than a transport thoroughfare. Our transport officers – who have an excellent track record in delivering similar, award winning schemes - believe that closing certain roads in the area to traffic will help to achieve these aims; this is why we are proposing experimental closures as part of the on-going consultation for Loughborough Junction. The formal consultation will begin when the road closures come into force so that people will be able to give their views based on their actual experience and our officers will be able to monitor traffic flows in nearby areas and the impact on the wider road system.

Everyone is welcome to the park, to discover its history, wildlife, trees and plants, to exercise and play. Myatt’s Fields Park should be an urban park of the highest quality which preserves its historic character while providing a safe, peaceful and varied environment for relaxation and recreation, and enhancing the wellbeing of all sections of the community Welcome to Myatt’s Fields Park” 2 Myatt’s Fields Park Management Plan 2016 - 2021 Foreword In Lambeth we have over 60 parks, commons, cemeteries and other open spaces, which enrich all of our lives and make Lambeth a better place to live, visit, and work. From major and local events, casual and competitive sports, reflection and contemplation, through to outdoor play spaces for children, we know that parks and open spaces are necessities in the modern world. Lambeth’s open spaces have experienced a renaissance in recent years, and we have seen our many active parks groups rise to become champions for green spaces, including exploring new models in how to manage and maintain them. We now have 16 Green Flag Award winning parks and cemeteries, the highest number we’ve ever had, and the latest Residents Survey revealed 76% of local people judged Lambeth’s parks and open spaces to be good or excellent.

  • Irina Porter, Uncovering Kilburn's History: Part 7
    Uncovering Kilburn’s History – Part 7 Thank you for joining me again for the final part of this Kilburn local history series. 1. New flats in Cambridge Road, opposite Granville Road Baths, c.1970. (Brent Archives online image 10127) In Part 6 we saw the major rebuilding that took place, particularly in South Kilburn, between the late 1940s and the 1970s. Many of the workers on the building sites were Irish. The new wave of Irish immigration to Northwest London, which reached its peak in the 1950s, was quickly transforming the area. As well as abundant work, Kilburn offered plenty of cheap accommodation, and a bustling High Road with cultural and eating establishments, many of them catering for the Irish population, who soon represented a majority in the area. ‘County Kilburn’ was dubbed Ireland’s 33rd county. 2. Kilburn's Irish culture – an Irish Festival poster and Kilburn Gaels hurling team. (From the internet) The Irish community, close-knit and mutually supportive, hit the headlines in the negative way in the 1970s, when Kilburn became a focal point for “the Troubles” in London. On 8 June 1974, an estimated 3,000 came out onto the streets of Kilburn for the funeral procession of Provisional IRA member Michael Gaughan. An Irishman, who had lived in Kilburn, Gaughan was imprisoned for an armed bank robbery in 1971 and in 1974 died as the result a hunger strike. Gaughan’s coffin, accompanied by an IRA guard of honour, was taken from the Crown at Cricklewood through Kilburn to the Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart in Quex Road, before being flown to Dublin for another ceremony and funeral.
