  • Stro Con Oud Gr Nserva Reen (C Ation a CA39) Area C ) Character Appraisal
    Stroud Green (CA39)) Conservation Area Character Appraisal December 2007 STROUD GREEN CONSERVATION AREA CHARACTER APPRAISAL Stroud Green Conservation Area Character Appraisal – Spring 2007 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 This document is prepared by the Council to assist with the management and enhancement of the Stroud Green Conservation Area. Together with the Conservation Area Design Guidelines it provides advice and guidance, both to the owners and occupiers of buildings in the conservation area and to the Council, about the way in which the area should best be managed to preserve and enhance its character. 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.

  • 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.
