Camberwell Library21 March 20132/ Site Layout2. Site Layout2.1 The proposed site is located on the corner of Camberwell Green and D’Eynsford Road, LondonSE5. D’Eynsford Road runs along the south of the site. To the other three sides the site issurrounded by existing buildings.2.2 The main source of noise on this site is likely to be related to noise on the main Camberwellgreen road (A215). The proposed site is set back from this road, with the actual CamberwellGreen located immediately to the southwest of the site.2.3 In addition, it is expected that aircraft flyovers will contribute to the overall noise levels as well.2.4 It should be noted that no noise survey has been carried out on this site. Noise levels from asite located nearby (Grove Lane, London, SE5) have been used to provide indicativerecommendations for the proposed Library building.2.5 Any recommendations are subject to be revised following a full noise survey. If no noise surveyis carried out, it is likely that recommendations made based on the external noise levels, willresult in a less than optimal acoustic performance.2
