Planning & Development

Enfield Council is currently advertising for a multidisciplinary team, led by a conservation landscape architect, to deliver the project to dismantle the remains of Broomfield House, 'memorialise' it, bring the land it occupied back into use as part of Broomfield Park and restore various heritage features of the park.

Campaigning group Better Streets for Enfield are holding a public online meeting at 8pm on Tuesday 19th November under the title 'Is Twenty Plenty in Enfield?'' to discuss the case for a 20mph limit on most Enfield roads.

A new operator has been found for the Alfred Herring pub in Green Lanes. It will be re-opening as a "vibrant sports bar" with an "exciting food offering".

A page on the council's website reveals new details about the project to dismantle the remains of Broomfield House and restore various historic features of Broomfield Park. The development phase of the 'Unlocking Broomfield Park for the Community' project is currently under way, using Lottery funding. The delivery phase, if it goes ahead, is expected to be completed by December 2028.

Enfield and Barnet councils have launched a joint project looking at the potential for improving the New Southgate area. The first phase is a public engagement aimed at finding out what the local community like about their area, what they don't like and their ideas for improvements.

The Mums for Lungs campaign argues that controlled parking zones (CPZs) are good for children's health because by reducing traffic they protect developing lungs from exposure to air pollution from engines and tyres. The campaign urges parents to support CPZs near their homes and schools even if they themselves do not drive.
