In 1800, George III was on the throne, Napoleon had just invaded Italy and a prestigious home had just been erected overlooking the pretty Clapton Ponds. Pond House is a Grade II* listed Georgian property and is one of Hackney’s finest examples. In 1802, the first owners were stockbrokers taking advantage of the close proximity to the city financial district. Now the house and former stables has been sympathetically restored to its former glory, creating a development of 4 beautiful apartments, a 3 bedroom coach house and in the formal landscaped grounds a new terrace of 6 large townhouses. All are elegant, all respect their Computer generated image heritage and all are designed for modern living.

The approach for the project was about early, ongoing and honest dialogue with those who live, work and visit the area so that they can influence change in their community. The Conversation focused on two streams of work: Moving around Hackney Central and community mapping exercise. Moving around Hackney Central The Council was previously awarded £10m of funding from Transport for London through the Liveable Neighbourhood Scheme to transform Hackney Central by reducing traffic in the area and redesigning its three dangerous junctions – Pembury Circus, Mare Street/Graham Road and Mare Street/Morning Lane – to make them safer for cyclists, pedestrians and public transport users.

  • Approval of LOROL Disabled People's Protection Policy
    John Larkinson Telephone 0207 282 2122 [email protected] 3 July 2014 Alan Hobson Customer Services Project Manager London Overground Rail Operations Ltd Dear Alan Approval of LOROL Disabled peoples protection policy (Condition 5 of your Station Licence and GB Passenger Statement of National Regulatory Conditions) Thank you for your emails of 14th and 15th May 2014, in which you provided updated versions of your Disabled peoples protection policy (DPPP). A copy of your revised DPPP is attached to this letter, and will be published on our website along with a copy of this letter. I confirm that we have reviewed your DPPP against the 2009 Guidance “How to write your Disabled People‟s Protection Policy A guide for Train and Station Operators” and approve it as meeting the requirements of Condition 5 of your Station Licence and GB Passenger Statement of National Regulatory Conditions (SNRP). Your DPPP was originally submitted to ORR on 23 October 2013 and we have had several exchanges in the intervening period in order to bring about the changes required to make it fully compliant with the Guidance. We have also been developing our approach to monitoring and enforcement during this period. We note that LOROL has introduced a „Turn Up and Go‟ service for assisting disabled and older passengers. You have explained that all of your stations are staffed while trains are running and passengers do not need to book in order to benefit from the assistance that is available. This is a very positive development which I am sure will be welcomed by many people.
