Article 4 Directions
To strengthen control in respect of any particularly important features in a conservation area that might otherwise be lost or degraded by unsympathetic permitted development, the Council can make a Direction to withdraw permitted development rights for specified works. This means that a planning application would first be required before a property owner could undertake those works.
There are currently confirmed Article 4 directions relating to the Gentlemans Row/Chase Side and Church Street areas of the Enfield Town Conservation Area, and to the major part of Government Row in the Enfield Lock Conservation Area.
In addition, on the 26th January 2006 Article 4 (2) Directions were made covering parts of the following conservation areas:-
1/ Bush Hill Park Conservation Area
2/ Clay Hill Conservation Area
3/ Enfield Lock Conservation Area
4/ Enfield Town Conservation Area
5/ Forty Hill Conservation Area
6/ Hadley Wood Conservation Area
7/ Southgate Green Conservation Area
8/ Trent Park Conservation Area
9/ Turkey Street Conservation Area
10/ Vicars Moor Lane Conservation Area
11/ Winchmore Hill Green Conservation Area
These Article 4 (2) Directions are effective immediately but must be confirmed by the Planning Committee within 6 months of being made or they will lapse. Please contact Development Control for details of which permitted developments have been withdrawn for each area.
