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.

Proposal:
Change of use from vacant public house (Use Class A4) to six residential apartments (Use Class C3).
Comment:
Whilst in principle it should be possible to convert this public house into flats, and this would seem to be a reasonable intention in a largely residential part of the street, the design of the proposed flats is unsatisfactory. More thought should be given to the juxtaposition of bedrooms, bathrooms, front doors and kitchens to create more satisfactory accommodation.
Also there are no drawings showing the proposed elevations.
The Camberwell Society objects to this application.
