PLANNING OVERVIEW
   The site is located in Romford Town Centre and lies within the
   jurisdiction of the London Borough of Havering.

   The property is not listed, however it boarders the Romford
   Conversation Area to the north.

   London Borough of Havering are in the process of preparing
   their draft local plan 2016-2031 which will replace its Core
   Strategy 2008 and Site Specific Allocations 2008.

   The Draft Local Plan underwent public examination in 2018 with
   modification taking place following responses in July 2019.

   The London Borough of Havering are also preparing a new
   Town Centre Masterplan for Romford. An initial consultation
   took place between January – July 2019. Another consultation is
   expected to take place in Autumn 2019.

   Emerging policy context suggests Havering are seeking to
   deliver a comprehensive regeneration of Romford Town Centre.

                                                                     CGI of the Leslie Jones Architecture scheme

SITE SPECIFIC
A meeting was held with officers from the LB Havering on 10th June
2019 to discuss the principle of the proposed redevelopment of the
Debenhams Site. The proposals presented to officers comprised a
mixed-use development with ground and first floor retail together
with residential accommodation on the upper floors. The scheme
provided 240 residential units and extended to 18 storeys in height.

Following the meeting with LB Havering, the following written
feedback was issued by officers:

   Subject to heritage considerations, a mixed-use redevelopment of
   the site would be acceptable in principle;

   Further consideration should be given to the access arrangements
   proposed to the residential accommodation, as well as servicing
   and deliveries for the retail component. This is on the basis that the
   current vehicular access to service the Liberty Shopping Centre is
   expected to change;

   The principle of delivering a tall building at this location will need to
   be considered in the context of emerging proposals for the Liberty
   Shopping Centre;

   Opportunities should be explored to improve Swan Walk in
   consultation with the owners of the Liberty Shopping Centre to
   agree a strategy to improve this external area of the Site;

Upon receipt of written feedback, an amended scheme has been
produced by Leslie Jones Architecture. Details of which are within the
data room.
