What this policy is about

Policy SP12 requires the conservation of Haringey's heritage assets, including Statutory Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas, and their settings. The Council will support heritage-led regeneration and good design, and resist development that harms the historic environment. Development must also protect key local views, such as the view from Alexandra Palace to St Paul's Cathedral.

Plain-English summary of the adopted policy text below. The full text is the rule; this is the gist.

The policy — as adopted

Conservation

Haringey's heritage ▪ The Council shall ensure the conservation of the historic significance of Haringey’s heritage assets, their setting, and the wider historic environment. The borough’s heritage assets include Statutory Listed Buildings, Conservation Areas, Registered Parks and Gardens, Archaeological Priority Areas, and other locally important heritage assets such as Locally Listed Buildings, Local Historic Green Spaces and Sites of Industrial Heritage Interest. Where archaeological excavation is required, findings should be published, disseminated, and used as the basis for archaeological interpretation on site. ▪ The Historic Environment should be used as the basis for heritage-led regeneration and as the basis for good design and positive change. Where possible, development should help increase accessibility to the historic environment. All development shall protect the Strategic view from Alexandra Palace to St Paul’s Cathedral as protected in the London Mayoral “London View Management Framework” Revised SPG, July 2010, and key local views.
