A Community Network for Bowes Park and Bounds Green
Seems to me that our loveable landlords along Myddlleton Road are cranking up their activities again. Anybody who has been in the beer garden at The Step this weekend will have seen a huge "outbuilding" being erected a couple of doors down. Completely new shop front has been put in at the old take-away near the junction of Marlborough Road and the Domipol supermarket that is totally at odds with the areas status as a conversation area.
My complaints to our ever so brilliant council have fallen on deaf ears and just wondered what other people think about it? Those of us who have lived in the area for some time will be well aware of the damage these illegal breaches of planning have caused to the area and may well share my concern.

We've just noticed it too and our hearts sank but it is all above board. It is a temporary shed for the builders who are just about to start work on George Moores, to be used as a canteen and office space.
Phew.
Best wishes

But.... in the last year or so we have had so many changes and developments on the street that have had no planning permissions. Some look OK'ish, but that is NOT the point. Changes in the Conservation Area should have planning permission. Sauce for geese and ganders. But the central gov't cuts to local gov't funding means that there are less resources at council level to deal with all this. I guess it is happening all over Haringey and beyond, but for us it is very obvious in Myddleton Road. I bet Souris will build the biggest shed that he is allowed by existing regulations - not an inch less. Then people will have to watch what it is used for.

Phew indeed!
Good luck to Nick and all who work on no 99.
