ALL THREE PLANS TO BUILD BLOCKS OF FLATS ON BEDWARDINE ROAD HAVE BEEN SCRAPPED.
The three separate planning applications by Croydon council’s controversial 100-per-cent owned building company Brick by Brick – all of which were given planning permission despite residential opposition – are now marked “Withdrawn” on the official croydon.gov planning register website – with a date of June 8th.
Each has a separate letter sent by Nicola Townsend, Croydon council’s head of development management to agents Carter Jonas saying: “Further to your recent correspondence I confirm that this application has now been treated as withdrawn and entered in the planning register as such.”
Who made the decisions to withdraw the applications – Croydon council or Brick by Brick – is not yet known.
The three sites – and the now withdrawn applications they were for – are:
Garage Block And Land Adjoining 21 Bedwardine Road Upper Norwood SE19 3AS
Proposal: Demolition of garages/storage sheds and erection of a three storey building to provide six flats together with landscaping, refuse and cycle storage as well as other associated works (amended description);
Garage Block And Land Adjoining 53 Bedwardine Road Upper Norwood
Proposal: Demolition of existing garages/storage sheds and erection of a three storey building to provide six flats together with landscaping, refuse/cycle stores and other associated works; and
Garage Block And Land Adjoining 91 Bedwardine Road Upper Norwood
Proposal: Demolition of garages/storage sheds and erection of a three storey building to provide three flats together with landscaping, refuse and cycle storage as well as other associated works.
The Inside Croydon website are reporting that ALL 23 applications for the sites where Brick by Brick got planning permission have now been withdrawn.
