The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions.

  • Barnet Plateau
    3. Barnet Plateau Key plan Description The Barnet Plateau Natural Landscape Area is part of a plateau of higher land on the north-west rim of the London Basin. The area extends eastwards to the Dollis Brook through East Barnet, southwards as far as the Brent Reservoir, and westwards to the River Crane. It covers a large and very varied area. The underlying geology is dominated by London Clay, but in the northern (and higher) part of the Natural Landscape Area, the summits are defined by more coarse grained, younger rocks of the Claygate Member, and further south a couple of outlying hills are capped by 3.

These correspond with the underlying Claygate Member on the higher points of the plateau (e.g. High Barnet 134m OD). The plateau slopes within the northern part of the Landscape Area may have been shaped by periglacial erosion following the Anglian glacier advance in the Finchley area to the east. The early settlement cores (Stanmore, Harrow, Hadley and Horsenden) are linked by the extensive urban areas of Barnet, Edgware, Kenton, To the north there are patches of farmland with rectangular fields Further south, the built up areas are frequently punctuated by patches Wembley and Greenford.

  • The River Brent
    The River Brent An advisory visit carried out by the Wild Trout Trust – March 2012 The River Brent at Tokyngton Park, Wembley 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust advisory visit undertaken on several separate reaches of the River Brent in northwest London. The request for the visit was made by Dr. Chris Cockel who is the River Brent Catchment Officer for the Thames Rivers Restoration Trust (TRRT) and is currently working on a number of projects designed to improve the ecological status of the River Brent, including the installation of eel passes and morphological river restoration. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Dr. Cockel. There is recognition that the Brent is unlikely to ever support a viable population of wild brown trout (Salmo trutta); however, the TRRT is very keen to explore options for improving the ecology of the river by adopting enhancement techniques that are proven to improve habitats for a wide range of aquatic species, including flow-loving, gravel spawning species such as salmonids. Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. 2. Catchment overview The River Brent (Waterbody ID 106039023590) is described as a heavily modified water body with poor ecological potential under the Water Framework Directive. Unfortunately there do not appear to be any WFD targets for improving the ecology of the river within the River Basin District Plan.

  • Capital Ring Section 8 of 15
    Transport for London. Capital Ring Section 8 of 15. Osterley Lock to Greenford. Section start: Osterley Lock.. Nearest station Boston Manor . to start: Section finish: Greenford. Nearest station Greenford . to finish: Section distance: 5.5 miles (8.8 kilometres) Introduction This is a very green walk along the Grand Union Canal towpath, beside the River Brent and through a series of parks and open spaces. It is mostly level walking, on firm towpaths and tracks and grass or earth, but may be muddy in wet weather. There are some short slopes. The route follows the Grand Union Canal and its locks at Hanwell, by the Wharncliffe Viaduct, Brent Lodge Park and Perivale Park. There are both pubs and cafes at Boston Manor, Brent Lodge Park and Greenford and there are public toilets at Brent Lodge Park. There are public transport links on National Rail at Hanwell and South Greenford as well as buses along the way. Directions. From Boston Manor station, on the Heathrow branch of the Piccadilly line, turn left upon exiting along Boston Road for 350 metres, then left again opposite The Royal Harvester pub along a broad path. Cross Southdown Avenue and keep ahead to pass through a kissing gate, then bear left. Follow this path ahead for 200 metres (it might be muddy after wet weather), ignoring turns as it descends between trees to the Grand Union Canal where the section starts. Turn right along the towpath to Osterley Lock, and keep ahead. Cross a long footbridge, the River Brent flows off to the right. Did you know? This part of the Grand Union Canal makes use of the River Brent as much as possible, though some artificial 'cuts' have been made to provide a straighter route, as here.
