HR3 Enhancement of Chinbrook Estate ASLC

  1. Development proposals in the Chinbrook Estate will be required to respect the special qualities and heritage of this area. Future proposals should:
    1. Seek to improve the quality and safety of the environment by removing all unnecessary fencing where this is creating dead ends and restricting movement around the estate.
    2. Reinstate access routes and streets to improve connectivity and avoid dead ends.
    3. Conserve and enhance the heritage features that are unique to the estate such as retaining the original tiling and banisters of the high-rise buildings and its garden city principles.
    4. Maintain the existing mix of different housing typologies that meet the needs of a range of household, especially the need for accessible ground floor dwellings suitable for older people or to address universal design needs.
    5. Maintain the good network of amenity greenspaces and ensure there is no net loss in the provision of amenity space for play and informal leisure.
    6. To emphasise affordable housing in line with Policy H2.
