TC6 Markets

The Council will promote and protect markets in Camden.

We will:

  • resist the permanent loss of market uses unless comparable replacement provision is made or there is no demand for continued market use;
  • take into account the character of the existing market when assessing proposals for the refurbishment and redevelopment of markets;
  • support new markets that will not cause individual or cumulative harm to the local area

When assessing planning applications for new markets, the Council will consider:

  • their effect on local residents and environmental conditions;
  • their impact on transport and pedestrian movement, including the effect on access and circulation, highways, parking and servicing;
  • their effect on local centres and shopping provision;
  • the storage and disposal of litter and refuse;
  • community safety and noise; and
  • toilet provision.
