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.

The proposal property is on a prominent corner site with Flaxman Road.
The proposed side extension is subservient to the original structure. The reduced rear extension (now a storey lower) brings part of the rear facade in line with the adjoining property before stepping back to the original dictated by the angled boundary.
The proposal adds no additional units but simply makes three of the existing four units, one per floor, larger and in line with Mayor of London’s space standards.
The Camberwell Society finds the proposals acceptable
