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 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.
19/AP/2123 | THISTLE COURT 99, LOWTH ROAD, LONDON, SE5 9BD
Addition of one and a half floors to existing 5 storey building to create an additional three bed self-contained residential unit at roof level.
This is a simple glass box added to the existing dark grey brick building of recent years, around a small plant room already at that level. The proposed addition is inset from the edges.
This would hardly be noticed. The building, Thistle Court, is set away from others, which are mainly blocks of flats. On the other side of Lowth Road three large housing blocks are eight storey; others nearby are six storey.
Propose no comment.
