LP40 Street Markets 

The Council will protect and promote the street markets of Ridley Road, Hoxton Street, Broadway Market, Kingsland, Well Street and Chatsworth Road.

  1. Development which would result in the permanent loss of markets or pitches will be refused unless appropriate comparable replacement provision is made.

New or expanded markets should be located within the Borough’s designated centres.

Proposals for new markets and market stalls will be permitted provided they will not cause individual or cumulative harm to the local area in terms of residential amenity, pedestrian and highway safety, parking congestion or the free flow of traffic, especially public transport. This must be set out in a Management Plan provided with any application.
