Based on conversations with the council, as well as yourselves we have identified the following possible uses for the space: — Resident association meetings — Rentable space for celebrations — Local health organisations may be able to use it for regular drop-in sessions — LBC estates team have identified benefit of having space for caretakers storage Parking for and respite Community 1 - 7 We would like to hear any further feedback from you on these proposed uses - do they meet the needs of the area? Is there anything you would like to add? Wisbeach Road Wisbeach Social Space Play Space New Bins 9 - 19 Wisbeach Road New Bins View into the courtyard Community space layout Site plan illustrating the proposal for Block B, with an outline of the previous proposal overlaid in red BLOCK C UPDATE Height and Scale — Biggest reduction in size through the design change — Courtyard open to the south for better daylight — Large play area at the southern end of the courtyard, where it receives the most sunlight — Less impact on the views from properties to the South along Saxon Road (see 22 - 32 comparison images below) Wisbeach Road Wisbeach Social Space / Emergency Emergency Access Vehicle Access New Bins In our conversations during consultation events, you expressed some concern around emergency access routes to the blocks. We have taken this on board and made the following change: — Paved area introduced, where emergency vehicles can access and turn, — No need to reverse along a convoluted route — When not in use, this area can act as a social space for the homes around it New Bins Play Space View from Saxon Road View from Saxon Road Site plan illustrating the proposal for Block C, with an outline of the previous proposal overlaid in red (Current Proposal as of May 2020) (Previous proposal as of January 2020).

  • Croydon Local Plan 2018
    Croydon Local Plan 2018 Croydon Local Plan 2018 A Development Plan Document forming part of the development plan for Croydon 27 February 2018 Published by Spatial Planning service London Borough of Croydon Bernard Weatherill House 8 Mint Walk Croydon CR0 1EA www.croydon.gov.uk/localplan [email protected] 020 8407 1385 All maps in this document reproduced by permission of Ordnance Survey On behalf of HMSO. © Crown copyright and Database right 2018. Ordnance Survey Licence Number 100019257 The cover for this plan is designed Adam Nathaniel Furman (www.adamnathanielfurman.com). The inspiration and concept for the designs is captured in his words below. Croydon has the most astonishing variety of architectures from every period, brought together in an incredibly varied urban environment that has everything from the most space-age, optimistic highrises of the 1960s, to the most elegant of Edwardian parks, the most forward-looking suburbia of the 1930s, the sharpest glass skyscrapers of the 21st century, and the most elegant of the Victorian’s virtuosity with brick. Taking some of the many great examples, and organising them as building blocks in a miniature, condensed version of Croydon’s spatial diversity, I created Croydon Collage. A re-suable, re-combinable little iconic symbol of the borough that is as colourful, iconic and proud as Croydon itself rightly is of its brilliant past, exciting present, and beckoning future. Design and production: Phil Graham - www.philgraham.co.uk 03 04 Croydon Local Plan 2018 Foreword Councillor Alison Butler – Deputy Leader Statutory - Cabinet Member for Homes, Regeneration & Planning & Councillor Paul Scott – Chair of Planning Committee & Deputy Cabinet Member for Planning The Croydon Local Plan 2018 is the most important planning policy document The Croydon Local Plan 2018 also supports the Council’s Growth Zone, which is for the borough and provides an exciting and deliverable vision for Croydon up essential to the whole borough.
