HIGHGATE NEW TOWN PHASE 1, CAMDEN Community-led Conservation Guidance for inclusion in the Dartmouth Park Conservation Area and Application for Grade II* Listing
This report presents community-led Conservation Area guidance and an application for Grade II* Listing for Highgate New Town Phase 1 (HNT), Camden, London, designed by architect Peter Tábori and constructed 1967-78. The study it presents was produced by a working-group comprising residents from HNT, supported by their Tenants and Residents Association (TRA) the Whittington Estate Residents Association (WERA) and community/heritage researcher Tom Davies (AHO) together with architectural historian Professor Mark Swenarton as consultant. The report sets out conservation guidance, developed through a community-led process and specific to HNT, for inclusion in the Dartmouth Park Conservation Area (DPCA). This is followed by the application for Grade II* Listing for the deliberation of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and Historic England (HE), which seeks to recognise the national significance of HNT as exemplary public-housing. These are made on the basis of its exceptional heritage values, the importance of retaining community spaces for its community and strong resident support from that community.
