ESSP940 Cycle Enfield Consultation 2015-web

Application for a telephone mast at the junction of Cannon Hill and Selborne Rd

by

An application has been made for the installation of a telephone mast and four ancillary cabinets on the verge opposite the junction of Cannon Hill and Selborne Road, outside the Southgate Beaumont. Jan 2015

The mast will be 15 metres tall (3 metres higher than the street lights on Cannon Hill, and bulkier). The cabinets will be approx. 1.6 metres tall.

SGA will object to this proposed development on the following grounds:

It is an inappropriate development for a Conservation Area
The proposed site is outside a listed building
The four ancillary cabinets are bulky and would be very dominant in the streetscene
There will be loss of soft landscaping due to the size of the cabinets

Plans for this application can be seen online at enfield.gov.uk. The application number is 14/04224/FUL.
You can see a copy of the SGA’s letter of objection here. Please give us your support by sending your own comments.
Members wishing to comment can do so by emailing development.control@enfield.gov.uk.

Proposed School at Grovelands

by

We have been advised that Enfield Council will be holding a consultation meeting on proposals for a school on the land adjacent to Grovelands Park. The meeting will be held on Wednesday 25th September at the Southgate Methodist Church, Bourne Hill at 7.00 pm.

The Council are planning to ‘invest in’ and ‘redevelop’ the ancient park. The intention is to conduct an historic parks survey and develop a management plan – both of which are standard good practice in parks management – but also to explore the options for introducing a new two form entry primary school and improve sports facilities. The intention is also to ‘open up’ the park, including lands owned by Thames Water.
