Planning for Vibrant Town Centres black 11 mm clearance all sides October 2016 Planning for vibrantwhite town centres Town centres are at the heart of sustainable communities11 mm providing clearance access to shops, leisure and cultural facilities for residents and visitors. Successful town centres are placesall wheresides people can live, work and socialise. What you have already toldCMYK us* • Shopping facilities, bars, cafes11 mm clearance and restaurants have all sides improved in the last five years. • There is a concern about the cost of socialising in Hackney. • There is a desire to support local shops, and residents feel that there is potential to offer more opportunities to buy clothes, shoes and accessories. * Findings taken from previous consultations and resident’s surveys including a MORI survey from earlier this year. Key Facts • Hackney’s biggest town centres are Dalston, Hackney Central and Stoke Newington. There are also 14 designated local shopping centres, street markets and shopping parades within the borough. • Planning records show that the majority of recent new retail development was built in Shoreditch, but Shoreditch is not a designated town centre. • The evening economy in the borough is concentrated in and around Shoreditch and Dalston / Kingsland Road, and is growing in Stoke Newington, Hackney Central, Clapton, Homerton, Hackney Wick and Broadway Market. What will the new Plan do? Vibrant town centres – There has been a change in the nature of shopping, with the increase of internet shopping and the growth of nearby major shopping centres such as Westfield in Stratford. There is a need to ensure that the borough’s network of town and local shopping centres, including street markets and shopping parades, are distinctive and meet the shopping, social and community needs of Hackney’s diverse communities. We will explore the current and future role, function and health of existing town centres, and consider new areas to direct growth. We may need to identify new town and local centres or expand existing centres. This may include Shoreditch which is not currently designated as a town centre in the Local Plan. We will consider how to best manage the range of commercial uses in the designated town centres and local centres and consider whether a bespoke approach is needed to enhance the character of each centre. Continued from overleaf Maximising approaches to promote health and well-being in town centres – Certain uses such as hot food takeaways, betting shops and pay day loan shops contribute to the local economy and are a source of employment, but they can also be perceived to have a negative impact on people’s well-being and image of a town centre. We will explore ways to manage the impact of such uses where there is an over-concentration in specific areas. The visitor economy – The visitor economy plays an important role in the health of the local economy and brings with it wider benefits to the local community, providing jobs and business opportunities. There is need to strike a balance between the evening and day time economies, especially with the growth of town centre living. The Plan will consider which town centres or other locations in the borough are most appropriate for night-time economy uses.

  • Stamford Hill Was in the Parish of Hackney; the Other Side in Stoke Newington
    A WALK UP STAMFORD HIL (0.7 miles) 1/10 Start at the gates of Abney Park Cemetery, N16 0LH, at the side of a main roadway in and out of London, laid down by the Romans 2000 years ago. Here, until the 1850s, a bridge took the road over Hackney Brook at a ‘sandy ford’, a possible derivation of Stamford 2. Cross the road to the corner with Cazenove Road, named after a Huguenot family whose house stood opposite the other end of this road. The building on the north corner of the street was The Weavers Arms, named perhaps as it was a haunt of Spitalfields weavers on a day out from London. On the south corner was Stephens till 1970s when every part of London had its own department store 3. Walk up the hill to the Egg Stores. This shop has been here with its distinctive font since the late 1940s. It now serves the local Hassidic and wider communities: a ‘one stop shop for all things Kosher’, renowned for its pickled herring. This side of Stamford Hill was in the parish of Hackney; the other side in Stoke Newington. 4. Carry on up to Stoke Newington station, first built 1872 on the site of Ibston Lodge to serve the Great Eastern Railway from Liverpool Street station. This was the third rail line to be built across Hackney. The Station Master was provided with a house across the road at No. 41. The Station was rebuilt in 1975. Belfast Rd was the home in 1841 of Stamford Hill Breweries.

This profile is intended to provide summary information on the health of the local population, to inform residents and support decision making. For more information on the health indicators found in this report, please see Hackney’s Joint Strategic Needs Assessment – www.hackney.gov.uk/jsna More general Ward level information can be found on the council’s Shared Evidence Base website.1 There is also more information on Public Health England’s Local Health website,2 and the GLA also produces Ward level information.3 Notes on the data: Data sources: Much of the data come from local health services, including GP data extracted from EMIS via the Clinical Effectiveness Group at Queen Mary University. These data relate to diagnosed or recorded conditions so will not include undetected illness. In April 2015, geographically coded data were unavailable from 2 practices using a different IT system (the Dalston Practice in Hackney Central, and the Abney House Practice in Stoke Newington) – this makes the data for these areas somewhat less reliable, and will be improved in future versions of these profiles.
