Whittington Park Community Centre Design and Access Statement Design and Access Statement (Planning Application Submission) January 2015 Whittington Park Community Centre Design and Access Statement architectsnetwork Design and Access Statement (Planning Application Submission) January 2015 Contents Use of the Building Amount of new building on the site Layout of Space on the site The Scale of the Buildings Landscape Appearance Access implementation of ‘inclusive’ design ethos Consultation Appendix architectsnetwork Design and Access Statement (Planning Application Submission) January 2015 Whittington Park Community Centre Use Whittington Park Community Centre is one of Islington’s community hubs based within and on the edge of the park at a cross roads between Holloway Road, Archway and Tufnell Park. WPCA provide a wide range of activities and services for all ages. Welcoming more than 700 people every week its core service areas are: Under 5’s hub hosting a child-minder’s centre and a One O clock Club .2+ nursery for 12-16 children opening spring 2015. Lunch club for over 60’s with a range of activities from art classes to ballroom dancing After school club and holiday play scheme Community café with accessible prices Private nursery A wide range of activities for all ages including a fun piano club, sports classes, street dance and a ukelele orchestra. Affordable meeting and working spaces for local community groups architectsnetwork Design and Access Statement (Planning Application Submission) January 2015 It has been operating as a community centre since 1972 .Founded by local community activists with an ethos of inclusivity and accessibility for all which continues with the current development plans. More information about the centre can be viewed on the Whittington Park Community Association web site. The centre has seen hard wear and tear over the years and is now in great need to be restored and modernised to give it a new lease of life to attract an ever widening spectrum of the people of this neighbourhood. The existing Victorian buildings are in need for structural repair in particular Hocking Hall which has suffered structural cracking the extent of which has been technically monitored by Islington Council /Greenspace. As with many community buildings the spaces, as they exist now, have great potential but their accumulation of uses added over the years have caused the buildings to develop on an ad hoc basis. Whittington Park Community Association Use will remain as a Community Centre the current use indeed these proposals will allow it to extend its reach into a broader base of the local community. The alterations to the building proposed entail improvements and repairs to allow the Centre to offer a wider range of facilities to a broader spectrum of the local community. The theme is one of restoration of the buildings particularly Hocking Hall which has suffered structural cracking. Public consultation undertaken by the Centre has confirmed the desire of the vast majority of consultation respondents is that the building should be restored and architectural features as existing be sensitively restored The proposals will also update the building to meet the requirements of the building to be fully accessible by the addition of a passenger lift to all floors and improve circulation in the building. These changes in themselves with the facility’s greater ‘multi-use’ of the main existing spaces and enlargement of the café dining area with provision of a catering kitchen to meet modern standards will. Facilities will also be changed to accommodate children in a manner that provides their own dedicated toilets to enable activities to be used by a wider age group in Hocking Hall. architectsnetwork Design and Access Statement (Planning Application Submission) January 2015 The Proposals and amount of new building on the site The works are largely alterations and repairs within the existing envelope however the changes do increase the floor space of the building which is enclosed within the building’s existing footprint. As new build floor space there are four small areas of extension two of these are related to improving the circulation from a functional, accessibility and security point of view. The space between Hocking Hall, the Park Café and kitchen is an open yard at present between a two storey and single storey building. The proposals intent to free up the large spaces as ‘multi-use rooms’ and create a new hub of circulation to provide access to these multi-use rooms, and increase access between floors and bringing unused yard into functional use. The vision of the Community Centre as a hub with staff at its centre means the smaller spaces on the north wing will provide accommodation for the support spaces for the multiuse space. This will mean relocating reception/staff office, creating new lift shaft, new toilets replacing the existing to allow enlargement of the current café and kitchen. These changes will also engage the park more with Whittington Park open spaces by relocating the entrance of the community centre to the Rupert Road elevation next to the café. This will give a much more open feel to the centre allowing it to spill out onto the open space much as it does in its successful Summer Day out event encompassing the whole park. There will be outdoor seating in front of the café on Rupert Road. The use of the park by other users will be safeguarded and this proposal includes a plan to divert the existing cycle path to the south side of Rupert Road on the southern edge of what will be an ‘inclusive’ outdoor space with cars being prohibited (vehicular access being only for park maintenance). The area of Rupert Road will remain a main pedestrian access to Whittington Park. The third small extension will be adjacent to the proposed new lift where the support spaces are located. There is currently a two storey meeting room at the north wing of the building in addition to a boiler room and store and small office in a single storey space with large open to ground floor roof void. The proposals unite the current first floor offices and roof void to create a continuous first floor which will link with Hocking Hall and the new lift. The extension of this roof void provides access to the lift at first floor and includes a small meeting room. At Ground Floor at the same location the store/office roof void will be demolished reducing the volume of the building envelope also between Hocking Hall, 86a Yerbury Road and the park. The roof will be replaced with a green roof. architectsnetwork Design and Access Statement (Planning Application Submission) January 2015 The areas for extensions and their effect on the total Gross Internal Area are as follows:- Table 1 Gross Internal Floor Areas Area/m2 As Existing Site Area 776.0 As Existing total Gross Internal Floor Area 801.7 As Proposed total Gross Internal Floor Area 873.8 Extensions/proposed covered yard 1. Entrance porch 4.2 2. Internal Circulation New Entrance XX30.2 3. Meeting Room & WC/shower (adjacent lift) XX34.3 4. First Floor Kitchen XX5.9 Mezzanine (within existing Dining Hall) XX28 Summary The increase in area is minimal as the main thrust of the proposals is to make the existing building more efficient by internal alteration. architectsnetwork Design and Access Statement (Planning Application Submission) January 2015 Layout of Public and Private Space on the site The site is almost entirely taken up by the footprint of the existing buildings except for the entrance path to the centre, the uncovered service yard at Hocking Hall, the outdoor amenity space which forms the private play area for the Nursery. The Nursery and its outdoor play space, which wraps around the existing building on Yerbury and Rupert Road elevations, are retained as existing. Local improvements will be made for accessibility and the existing centre entrance will be relocated to Rupert Road facing the park. The Entrance to the Centre is to be relocated to Rupert Road which will be an inclusive access surface for the Centre and the visitors to the Park. The approach to the entrance therefore will be in the public domain and a new porch entrance structure is located on what is currently local authority pavement. It is proposed that vehicles will be prohibited from the area and four parking spaces omitted on Rupert Road. The cycle path will be rearranged locally to be a marked cycle path on the edge of the park at the southern pavement of Rupert Road up to the junction to Rupert and Yerbury roads. This rearrangement will effectively create a new public space to benefit the users of the centre, the users of the cafe, cyclists, and pedestrians entering the park. The main centre entrance will then be directly facing a Whittington Park inclusive entrance surface. This would provide a pedestrian zone onto which the café and entrance would provide a welcoming inside/outside extension to the public domain of park and community centre. DRAWING OF SITE PLAN PROPOSED WITH CYCLE PATH & INCLUSIVE ACCESS architectsnetwork Design and Access Statement (Planning Application Submission) January 2015 Ground Floor The Ground Floor plan concept emphasise the four large spaces as existing and seeks to enhance their use as multi-purpose rooms served by supporting service rooms. The Multipurpose rooms will have built in storage to allow multi-functioning bookings ranging from yoga to martial arts, after school clubs and older people’s lunch. In order to be a sustainable community centre it is important to achieve separate access to each space either from an external entrance or preferably an internal access from the central reception hub. In order to create this we have covered over the passageway/yard to form a new circulation corridor which doubles as internal access to multi-use rooms namely Hocking Hall and Café.

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.
