Through the work of the sub-committee, the Society has been instrumental in saving many buildings of note including Addington Square, Denmark Hill Station and part of Windsor Walk. The Society has also been instrumental in influencing new development to make a positive contribution to the area, and works with local residents and tenants groups where there are common issues. The current composition of the Planning sub-committee is: Tim Gaymer, Anthony Kyrke-Smith, Elizabeth Borowiecka, Jason Leech, Robert Potz, Jonathan Hunt, Paul Cohoon, Somayya Yaqub, Michael Galt and Tom Harvey. Potential new members are welcome to attend a meeting as an observer initially. The Society is currently under represented by members from the Myatt Fields and Brunswick Park areas.

Land to as the rear of No 85 Southampton Way, SE5 (aka 2 Cottage Green)
Conversion of the disused “warehouse” outbuilding located to the rear of No 85 Southampton Way and adjacent to No 2 Cottage Green to one dwelling house, involving: the construction of a three-storey extension; incorporating an external terrace space at second floor level; fenestration alterations to the front (northwest) and side (southwest) elevations; and allotting some of the rear garden of No 85 Southampton Way to the proposed dwelling/live work unit.
An imaginative use of geometry to create an eminently livable three-storey house from a tiny disused warehouse space.
