428. Civic Amenities Act 1967

— Mitcham (The Cricket Green) Conservation Area — (Minute No. 2086/2/69)

— The Borough Surveyor explained that, following consultations in accordance with section 1(3) of the Civic Amenities Act, 1967, the Greater London Council had suggested that the proposed “Mitcham (The Cricket Green) Conservation Area” should be extended to include “Three Kings Piece” and properties fronting on to it in Commonside East and Commonside West together with “East Lodge” which was a small house at the northern end of Mitcham Park.

He reported that he was in agreement with the suggestion; submitted a revised plan No. DP/363/69 showing the area extended as suggested; and stated that, if the extension were agreed, further consultations with the Greater London Council would be unnecessary.

Recommended — That the Cricket Green Area of Mitcham as shown On plan No. DP/363/69 be designated as a Conservation Area and the necessary notices be given in accordance with section 1(4) of the Civic Amenities Act, 1967.
