We have no objection to the replacement of the drawing in 2015/1574 to include the windows as stated in the application document. However, we note that the “extension of the walkway” is also stated in the application document and although this does not appear to feature in the replacement drawing we would object to that and to any increase in the height of the rear extension.

2019/0778 255-259 Green Lanes Stoke Newington N4 2UX The erection of plant equipment on the roof of 255- 259 Green Lanes, to serve the ground floor retail unit (Retrospective). (Kim Aukett 020 8356 4740) [18 October 2019]

The plant is clearly visible from the park. It detracts from the overall design of the block and affects the setting of the conservation area. We agree with the comments from the HSPG.

"The applicant needs to investigate and demonstrate other options for mitigating the size and visibility of the plant in particular to reduce the impact of views from Clissold Park (which are currently harmed unacceptably) and the modest loss of green roof."

Setting the plant further back from the front parapet or providing carefully designed shielding might mitigate the situation.
