FR Finchley Road Traditional Shopfronts

Traditional shopfronts at 166 to 200A and the ground floor units at 1-6 Palace Court, 250 Finchley Road (as shown in Map 9) should be retained and relevant development proposals should address the following:

  1. New shopfronts should complement the Victorian or Edwardian character of the street and should include a shop window, doorway, stallriser, fascia, corbels and pilasters.
  2. Shopfronts should use a palette of materials similar to the original Victorian or Edwardian frontages, including:
    • timber frames, glazing bars and fascias;
    • part-glazed timber doors;
    • timber or render stallrisers;
    • timber, stone or render pilasters;
    • paint finishes.
  3. Reinstatement of shop fronts, based on evidence of the original design, will be welcomed.
  4. Shopfronts should be retained, including where shops change to alternative uses, such as offices.
