Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for Regeneration and New Homes
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To consider an application from the Old Bermondsey Village Neighbourhood Forum to extend the designated area of the Old Bermondsey Village Neighbourhood Area.
Decision:
1. That the proposal to extend the designated area as shown coloured blue on the map in Appendix 2 of the report, proposed by the Old Bermondsey Village Neighbourhood Forum as a revised Neighbourhood Area be refused, for the reasons set out in the officer’s report.
2. In addition, in order to address concerns raised, an editorial amendment to the New Southwark Plan proposed submission version will be made before submission to the Secretary of State to the Design and Accessibility Guidance NSP53 as follows:
‘The site is within the setting of the Grade II
listed Railway Arches. The site is
partially within the Bermondsey Street
conservation area and includes an important unlisted building, The
Leather Warehouse, which makes a positive contribution to the
area. The site is also within the
setting of these buildings. Development
proposals should seek to retain and enhance
where possible the townscape setting
provided by key heritage assets including the unlisted leather
warehouse on Snowfields Street, the Horseshoe Inn located on
Vinegar Yard and the Grade II listed Railway Arches. Development proposals should complement local
character and distinctiveness. The
urban grain and street layout of the surrounding area should be
retained.’
