  • Appendix 1 - Canada Water Social Regeneration Charter
    Draft Version December 2018 Appendix 1 - Canada Water Social Regeneration Charter Purpose and Principles 1. The Council and British Land will work together to achieve our shared objectives for the Canada Water Masterplan (CWM), the Master Development Agreement (MDA) and the Canada Water Social Regeneration Charter. Over the last two decades, Southwark has seen a variety of regeneration programmes delivered which has enabled us to rise from the 12th most deprived Borough in the UK (out of 326) to the 41st. We want to continue this improvement, and to continue to explore the best possible ways of improving the life chances for our residents. 2. A Social Regeneration Charter (SRC) is a high-level area-specific document informed by the Southwark Regeneration Framework. There is one Charter for every major regeneration area in Southwark. This document, the Canada Water Social Regeneration Charter (CWSRC), sets out the purpose of the charter, its development, policy context, baseline research and investment priorities for the area from both the perspectives of British Land and the Council. The Canada Water Place Action Plan (CWPAP), then details how we will implement and achieve the objectives for the area outlined in the New Southwark Plan, CWAAP and the CWSRC. 3. The CWSRC is jointly owned and managed by the London Borough of Southwark and British Land. It sits outside of the regulatory framework and requires innovative partnership working to successfully deliver the ambitions which could be delivered with capital programmes delivering physical amenities (‘hardware’) or via social and economic initiatives and programmes (‘software’). 4. Details of social/economic initiatives and programmes will evolve as the project progresses and depending on resources that can be attracted, will be informed by community input and progress measured against indicators.

  • 1. Schemes for a London to Croydon Canal
    SCHEMES FOR A LONDON TO CROYDON CANAL CHAPTER 1 SCHEMES FOR A LONDON TO CROYDON CANAL The Domesday survey of 1086 noted the existence of a church and a mill at Croydon, and a population of about 365. But by the mid-17th. century, Croydon had grown to become the principal town in east Surrey and an important market centre where agricultural produce from the neighbouring districts was collected for conveyance to London. Several small industries grew up in and around the town, which also became a seat of local government administration. By as early as the 13th. century the town had expanded from its original Saxon site at Old Town towards higher ground to the east, and developed on the line of the present High Street. Here, on what was to become the Brighton Road, several coaching inns were later established. This road, however, like most of the roads in Surrey, was not kept in good repair. In 1718, when the Surrey and Sussex Turnpike Trust was set up, the road between Croydon, Godstone and East Grinstead was declared in the Act of incorporation to be "so very ruinous and almost impassable for the space of five months in the year that it is dangerous for all persons, horses, and other cattle to pass."[1] The establishment of this and other turnpike trusts led to some improvements of the roads under their care, but they were still in general not suitable for heavy traffic. In 1805 James Malcolm in his "Compendium of Modern Husbandry" commented on the bad state of the roads in Surrey, and rebuked various turnpike trustees for neglecting their duty to maintain them.
