    Your Future Neighbourhood The Neighbourhood Plan For Crofton Park and Honor Oak Park (HopCroft Plan) July 2017 Pre -Submission Consultation Acknowledgements The Crofton Park and Honor Oak Park Pre-submission Neighbourhood Plan has been prepared by Changing Cities and Urban Silence on behalf of the HopCroft Neighbourhood Forum. This draft plan has also been made possible by the dedication of the Neighbourhood Forum Steering Group who have devoted many hours of volunteer time in making it happen.

In 2010 I was elected as local councillor for the Crofton Park ward. I’ve seen it change in many ways through the years but the essence of the place remains. It is a vibrant, family-friendly local community with residents and businesses that care about their streets, facilities and green spaces. People are drawn to the area because of the variety of homes, the attractive Victorian and Edwardian streets, the parades of independent shops and eating places, the good transport connections, the local creative and cultural activities and the beautiful parks. We know the area will continue to change and many of the challenges that other areas of London face have not escaped us – congested roads, increasing housing costs and stretched local services.

  • Wickham Road
    Wickham Road LONDON £750,000 SHARE OF FREEHOLD This large, bright two-bedroom apartment with a private garden extends over 1,200 sq ft and is located on Wickham Road, one of the most coveted addresses within the Brockley Conservation Area. Laid down c.1850, Wickham Road is the oldest and widest of the four grand north-south axis avenues in Brockley. Thoughtfully reimaged under the current ownership, this apartment respects and celebrates the refined original features of its fabric while creating a home suitable for 21st-century life. Setting the Scene The first of the grand avenues in Brockley, Wickham Road is at the heart of the conservation area. The area was constructed on farmland, predominantly in the second half of the 19th century, for the newly wealthy industrialists whose business was centred around the industrial areas of Bermondsey and Deptford. Prior to its residential development, Brockley was well regarded for the quality of its soil, which led to the creation of many market gardens; the area was renowned for the growing of giant rhubarb and its exemplary strawberries. +44 (0)20 3687 3071 — inigo.com — [email protected] Wickham Road LONDON £750,000 SHARE OF FREEHOLD Today the area remains very leafy, with a plethora of public green spaces, tree-lined streets, nature reserves and large gardens; as such, it is a haven for the wildlife of London and it is believed the Brockley Badger lives on in certain enclaves, namely the New Cross Gate Cutting, a 10-acre wildlife reserve a short walk from Wickham Road. Indeed, the name Brockley is a derivation of ‘Broca’s woodland clearing’, ‘Broca’ being Old English for badger.

  • Battle of Lewisham Mural Public Consultation Responses
    Battle of Lewisham mural public consultation responses Summary 117 consultation responses have been gathered online (33) and through live consultation activities (84) in partnership with community organisations since April 2019: 70% of comments submitted by the public were coded either ‘Positive’ or ‘Positive / constructive’. 14% of qualitative comments submitted by the public were coded either Negative’ or ‘Negative / constructive’. 45% of comments submitted by the public engaged with the design and provided constructive criticism There is broad, if not unanimous, support for the concept of commemorating the Battle of Lewisham through public art. Nearly half (45%) of respondents provided constructive criticism which will inform the final round of design changes before the mural is launched in late 2019: Colour – Revisit the use of yellow and green in terms of the visual impact of these colours and how they help clarify the composition. E.g. What / who do they reveal and obscure. Context – Ensure interpretation boards are installed alongside the artwork at launch. People - Consider including Lewisham Mayor Ron Pepper if an appropriate image can be sourced. Banners & symbols – Remove the ‘National Front’ banner and move the ALCARAF banner to a more central position. NF platform - Consider ways in which the design can be altered to obscure the NF or minimise the risk of being perceived to give them a platform. Composition – Consider revisiting the central third of the composition in order to address the perceived lack of clarity and focus. This could be achieved by altering contrast and exploring how a stronger punk zine ‘cut out’ technique might provide clearer lines and greater structure.
