The reasons for selecting Crews Hill and Chase Park are set out in the table on PDF page 57:
Crews Hill and Chase Park, Enfield provides an opportunity with high potential for land value capture through green belt release – delivering up to 21,000 homes in outer London, a region facing extremely high housing demand and low housing affordability. The potential impacts on the natural landscape could be significant given the site’s greenfield status. These will be mitigated wherever possible through comprehensive masterplanning and consideration of how the Enfield Chase Landscape Recovery project could support mitigation and nature recovery. Our view is that any remaining impacts would be outweighed by the need for housing delivery in London and low availability of land, especially as the existing greenfield land is low-quality agricultural use.
Enfield RoadWatch, in collaboration with our partner organisations, will be submitting a response to the consultation that is currently under way. We will post guidance, in case you wish to respond as individuals.
