Crouch End, Hornsey & Stroud Green Area Plan Crouch End, Hornsey & Stroud Green Area Plan (Workshop Findings) On Tuesday 7 February, a workshop was held at the Union Church Community Centre to identify priorities and prospective activity for the development of a Crouch End, Hornsey & Stroud Green Area Plan. The workshop was attended by residents, service providers and local partners. The table below summarises the priorities, discussion and ideas for prospective activity that came out of the workshop. This information will form the basis of negotiations with services to agree content for a three year area plan. A final plan (with year one activity) will be agreed by the Crouch End, Hornsey & Stroud Green Area Committee at their next meeting on 10 April 2012. The area plan will be reviewed and updated annually. Priority Issue Comments Activity 1.

It contains an appraisal of the features that contribute to the area’s character and appearance and advice on how best change can be accommodated. 2. PLANNING POLICY CONTEXT 2.1 The Stroud Green Conservation Area was first designated on 14th December 2006. 2.2 Conservation Areas are areas which the Council considers to be of ‘special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance’. [Town and Country Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990]. Once a conservation area is designated the Council has a statutory obligation to: from time to time, publish proposals for the preservation of enhancement of the character and appearance of the conservation area. pay special attention to preserving or enhancing the character of the area when considering planning proposals affecting the area. 2.2 Conservation Area designation also brings with it some additional town planning controls to assist the Council to manage change effectively. Furthermore, the Council can use its planning powers to control normally permitted development should it feel it necessary to protect the character and appearance of the area.

    CREOS November 2011 CREOS is a voluntary organisation with many local members. It was formed over 25 years ago to protect and improve the open space and playing fields bordered by Park Road, Wood Vale, Cranley Gardens and Shepherds Hill. Most of our members live on roads bordering the site. to all CREOS members you are cordially invited to the which is kindly being hosted by Deborah and Paul Perlin at 105 Wood Vale N10 The party is on Sunday 11 December 2011, 12.30-3.30pm Buffet lunch, with wine & soft drinks Although there will be no charge, donations towards the cost of laying down and maintaining paths and other vital CREOS activities will be much appreciated. MORE NEWS from across the fields The woodland areas are looking spectacular at the moment with the full range of autumnal colours on display. The great variety of tree species in our area produce a wide palette of colours and leaf shapes, making it all a grand show – even if it is a harbinger of winter on its way! On the planning front the Pavilion Sports Club (which we all knew as the North Middlesex Club site) has put in an appeal against Haringey’s refusal of planning permission for extensive floodlighting to go on their proposed multi games areas to be built close to Cranley Gardens homes (a scheme they did get permission for, but at a Planning Committee meeting where it Due to the sunny Autumn the colours in the fields are superb was said by the Applicants that floodlighting was not, and would not particularly pleased that London Borough of Haringey’s stance and be, proposed!).

  • The Rowans Site by Finsbury Park7
    Both SA36 and SA37 tend to frustrate an improved park; an improved railway station and especially, a genuine Town Centre, worthy of the name. ___________________________________ SA 37 – 18–20 Stroud Green Road THIS is described as a New town centre frontage onto Stroud Green Road, however in truth it is no more than a housing development. It’s described as “an opportunity to create new town centre uses within the Finsbury Park District Centre” but it is hard to see this as other than a residential development alongside Islington’s misnamed ‘town centre’. It’s hard to know what is meant by, Town centre uses will be required at ground floor level on the Stroud Green frontage of this site. ___________________________________ SA 36 – Finsbury Park bowling alley THE principal feature of this site is that exists on the boundary of two other Boroughs. It sits on the extreme periphery of Haringey, Hackney and Islington, far from the centres of the three Boroughs. The site allocation maximizes benefit to one Council (Haringey) at the expense of the local community and especially at the expense of the potential for a genuine ‘town centre’. If this SA36 is sound, it is sound only within the artificial confines and disregards the adjacent areas. It is not clear that a major stakeholder (Transport for London) was consulted. Given that this site is (a) adjacent to one of London’s major transport interchanges and (b) on the edge of the Borough and (c) adjacent to one of north London’s largest parks, this site should have been subject to different criteria from say, a similar site in the middle of the Borough.

  • Traffic Noise Maps of Public Parks in Haringey May 2018
    Traffic noise maps of public parks in Haringey May 2018 This document shows traffic noise maps for parks in the borough. The noise maps are taken from http://www.extrium.co.uk/noiseviewer.html. Occasionally, google earth or google map images are included to help the reader identify where the park is located. Similar documents are available for all London Boroughs. These were created as part of research into the impact of traffic noise in London’s parks. They should be read in conjunction with the main report and data analysis which are available at http://www.cprelondon.org.uk/resources/item/2390-noiseinparks. The key to the traffic noise maps is shown here to the right. Orange denotes noise of 55 decibels (dB). Louder noises are denoted by reds and blues with dark blue showing the loudest. Where the maps appear with no colour and are just grey, this means there is no traffic noise of 55dB or above. London Borough of Haringey 1 1. Albert Road Recreation Ground 2.
