Campaigners against a development in St. Mark's Mews are celebrating the withdrawal of the planning application. Their local councillor, Cllr. Julia Clements-Elliot, informed them of the decision.
The Campaign had located
Restrictive Covenants limiting the scope of development on the site of
the old garages on the South East side of St Marks Road, Hanwell.
Several Restrictive Covenants imposed in 1880 at the time of the sale
of the land, prevent over development such as that proposed in the
planning application submitted to Ealing Council Planning Department.
The Stop St Marks Mews Campaign wrote to Minute Building
Services Limited, the developer proposing to build on the site, the
council planning department and local councillors to advise them of
the Restrictive Covenants relating to the site.
The Stop St Marks Mews Campaign spent the last six weeks, since
the notification of a planning application was circulated to
residents, working with the Land Registry in Swansea to source copies
of the Title Deeds and Charges Register for the property.
Residents of St Marks Road and St Dunstans Road, Hanwell, West London
launched the Stop St Marks Mews Campaign to protest against the proposed
development on the site of the old garages on the South East side of
St Marks Road (planning serial number P/2004/2736).
