Development of Dickson Fold

At an open meeting in West House to discuss the possible development of Dickson Fold  on 27 January the current residents expressed their dismay at the threat of the loss of their homes, as did the Pinner Association.
In this context you may be free of any further fears of the demolition of West House as this building is the subject of a 125 years lease from the Council to the Heath Robinson Museum Trust.

West House wins Lottery Grant Bid

The Heritage Lottery Fund has awarded The West House and Heath Robinson Museum Trust £1,130,100 to build a Heath Robinson Museum in Pinner Memorial Park! Wonderful news! Big thanks to everyone who has worked so hard over the past 15 years to get to this point.
We still need to raise £200,000 to be able to build the museum. If you’d like to help, you can donate online at https://mydonate.bt.com/charities/heathrobinsonmuseum. Thank you!

Harrow Libraries

NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN HARROW LIBRARIES – FOR INFORMATION
Changes agreed at Harrow Council Meeting on 6th June.
  • The Civic Centre Library is to close end of July and merge into Gayton Library (in St John’s Road) some time in August.
  • The local History Collection will move to the Headstone Manor Museum and will reopen later, by appointment only.
  • Harrow Libraries have new public use computers. After a service upgrade, reference resources, magazines and newspapers will all be available online both in the libraries and on home computers free on a proposed new services called Zinio.
  • The council is looking at commissioning out the libraries to a non-profit making company, with a saving of several £100,000s. The service would be closely monitored.
  • A new library system is planned which will enable Harrow to join the London Library Consortium so that library members will have access to over 5 million items.

69 West End Lane

The proposed development at 69 West End Lane has been refused for the following reason:
The proposed development, by reason its excessive bulk, height and scale
and its close proximity to the public highway, would appear as an overly dominant, incongruous and conspicuous addition to the streetscene to the detriment of the character of the area, and would therefore fail to accord with policies 7.4.B and 7.6.B of The London Plan 2011, policy CS1.B of The Harrow Core Strategy 2012, saved policy D4 of the Harrow Unitary Development Plan 2004, policy DM1 of the emerging Harrow Development Management Policies Plan 2013, and the adopted Supplementary Planning Document: Residential Design Guide 2010.

No doubt the applicants will now appeal to the Planning Inspectorate.
