News

The good news is that, following a public examination hearing in August 2016, the Pinkham Way site has been removed from Haringey Council’s Site Allocations Plan because Haringey Council could not justify its inclusion.
However, the dual “SINC/Employment Land” planning designation remains in place and the big push is now on to remove the Employment Land element.
Pinkham Way Alliance have recently responded to proposed modifications to Haringey’s Local Plan documents arising from the August hearing. They argue that as the Council has given no proper justification for retaining the Employment element of the designation, and since the site has remained undeveloped for almost 25 years with no proposal getting remotely near implementation, this element of the designation should now be removed. They also argue that as the site has borough wide environmental value, it needs to be protected.

The document submitted to Haringey Council is available below:

The application for a telephone mast on Cannon Hill has been withdrawn.  Many thanks to members who sent in their comments.

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.
