Planning and Listed
Building Matters
As an amenity group
affiliated to the Civic Trust, the
Society’s aim is to protect the character of the area, to encourage the
sympathetic design of alterations and additions, and to ensure owners
appreciate the importance of boundary fences and mature trees in keeping the
character of the street scene.
All
planning submissions for work in the area are referred by the boroughs to the
Society, which can draw on considerable experience and expertise in
architectural, planning, traffic and other matters, including technical advice
concerning repairs and maintenance. This help is freely available to members,
who are advised to contact the Society prior to making planning applications.

From Knowledge
Comes Care
The first phase of Society’s major, and indeed groundbreaking,
initiative to provide a Logbook for each of Bedford Park’s Listed Buildings
came to an end on Saturday 30th November 2002 with the delivery of a
Logbook setting out the original design features including useful planning data
such as the gate and fence designs originally used. A current-day photographic
record of the exterior facades of the houses has been included. Please see From Knowledge Comes Care.
To learn more of the project, contact Peter Murray secretary (at) bedfordpark.org.
