2 Design and Heritage LV6 View from Amwell Street to St. Paul's Cathedral LV7 View from Dartmouth Park Hill to St. Paul's Cathedral LV8 View from Pentonville Road to St. Pancras Chambers and Station C. The council will produce management plans for all local views in a Supplementary Planing Document. Further policy and guidance for the management and protection of LV1 is provided in the Bunhill and Clerkenwell Area Action Plan D. Redevelopment of buildings which currently adversely impact on the local or strategic view are required to improve the view and not infringe on any part of the defined view. Details of the location and height of the local views are given in Appendix 1. 2.0.24 The local views are of no lesser quality than the Mayor's strategic views and the council will give equal protection to both types of views. The protection of the views of St. Paul’s has implications for the control of building heights within the City of London, in front of and behind the view to the Cathedral, and also in the London Borough of Southwark, protecting the background. The co-operation of these two authorities will therefore be necessary. 2.0.25 Within the defined local views the council will seek to protect the line of sight view from ground level at the viewpoint (or viewpoints), to a line drawn horizontally through the base of the drum of the cathedral (52.1 AOD). The historic and important view of St. Pancras along Pentonville Road will also be protected (LV8), and schemes which detract from this view will be refused permission. Landmarks 2.0.26 Islington benefits from having many fine buildings, some of which are local landmarks providing a focus of interesting views and skylines. These buildings are key elements within Islington's townscape and help create its local distinctiveness. A number of these landmarks are listed below, although this is not necessarily a comprehensive list and more could be added in the future. Policy DM 6 Landmarks A. The Council will protect views of well known local landmarks and will exercise stringent controls over the height, location and design of any building which blocks or detracts from important or potentially important views. These landmarks will be shown on the proposals map. 18 Islington Council Development Management Policies - Direction of Travel
2 Design and Heritage B. The Council will produce management plans for the protection and enhancement of views of the local landmarks in Supplementary Planning Documents.
