ES753998 PLANNING SYNOPSIS Nathaniel Lichfield & Partners (NLP) has undertaken a planning appraisal of the main supermarket site and the petrol filling station.

The petrol filling station site (Use Class Sui Generis) is located within Regents Canal Conservation Area and is adjacent to Camden Market which includes a number of Listed Buildings. The main supermarket site has been the established use on the site for approximately 20 years.

The planning appraisal highlights that the sites benefit from a high accessibility level (PTAL 6a) and are within the boundary of Camden Town, which is identified as a Major Centre. This therefore means the sites are considered as suitable locations for high density, residential-led mixed use development.

The (FALP) density matrix outlines that the current supermarket site could potentially deliver between 392 – 1,134 units and the petrol filling station site could potentially deliver circa. 57 units – 166 units. NLP outline that the general height of the development could be expected to be around 4-7 stories across the supermarket site, with scope for some taller elements, where this would not affect the protected view, heritage assets and local amenity. LB Camden consider the concept of ‘context’ to be central to any tall building prospects and therefore regard should be given to the existing context and any development proposals should ensure they complement the scale and massing of the surrounding buildings.
