Mill Road Depot Draft Planning and Development Brief SPD

Representation ID: 31046

Received: 21/07/2016

Respondent: Cambridge Association of Architects

Representation Summary:

It is recommended to define the later gatehouse extension connecting to the Indian Culture Centre of low quality and promote its demolition, in order to enable a more direct access sequence from the long and narrow entrance street into an extended version of the gatehouse court.
This will support both the entrance, and the public space by very little loss of low quality accommodation which can be compensated for elsewhere.
