    Ref.: TC/1136 30 March 2020 Hayley Starkey Tunbridge Wells Borough Council Mount Pleasant Road Royal Tunbridge Wells Kent TN1 1RS By e-mail: [email protected] Application: 20/00752/FULL & 20/00753/LBC Site: Trinity Theatre And Arts Centre, Church Road, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN1 1JP Proposal: Internal alterations to stairwells and clock tower for public access. New external up- lighting to the tower; and Listed Building Consent - Internal alterations to stairwells and clock tower for public access. New external up-lighting to the tower. Remit: The Theatres Trust is the national advisory public body for theatres. We were established through the Theatres Trust Act 1976 'to promote the better protection of theatres' and provide statutory planning advice on theatre buildings and theatre use in England through The Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) Order 2015, requiring the Trust to be consulted by local authorities on planning applications which include 'development involving any land on which there is a theatre'. Comment: This application for planning permission and listed building consent has come to the attention of the Trust as it results in development at the Grade II* listed Trinity Theatre. Trinity Theatre is a theatre and arts centre which has been operating within the former Holy Trinity Church since 1982. It is an important cultural and heritage asset for Tunbridge Wells and surrounding areas, supporting smaller to middle scale theatre and performing artists as well as local groups. It helps broaden access to culture and the arts for local people. Paragraph 92 of the NPPF (2019) seeks planning decisions to plan positively for facilities such as this.

  • Report and Recommendations
    1 Tunbridge Wells Town Plan Advisory Panel Report and Recommendations Presented to TUNBRIDGE WELLS BOROUGH COUNCIL July 2012 2 FOREWORD It is now around eight months since I set up the Tunbridge Wells Town Plan Panel with the purpose of better informing the debate on the future development of the town. Some finger crossing was needed at first since the exercise was new to all those involved, and required some pretty basic blue sky thinking. However, I am delighted that we are now able to publish our views, based on the consensus of the majority of the Panel members. Looking back, I feel privileged to have been part of a group of people who have shown such dedication and have given up so much of their time to the task. There will be those, no doubt, who will question the composition of the Panel and indeed its competence or mandate for doing this work. The choice of members was initially mine, and whilst I made every effort to ensure a balanced selection of skills and demographics, I was always aware that this could never be entirely perfect, and would be inevitably open to challenge. Despite this, however, I remain confident that the result is a valid and useful contribution to the consultation process. In particular, the thinking has been from the bottom up, starting with a clean sheet and few pre-conceived ideas. It is probable that the result may not be seen as dramatic, but I am convinced that it will prove to be of considerable significance in further informing the Borough Council's consultation on the Tunbridge Wells town centre plan.
