At last Hornsey Town Hall – and the redevelopment thereof – is on the move after five years of expectation.  The Hornsey Town Hall Creative Trust (HTHCT) who have been taking forward the vision of this lovely art deco council building forward to community arts centre and so much more have announced that the planning application has now been submitted!

In fact it is Haringey Council who has submitted a planning application to restore and convert the magnificent Grade 2* listed building into a centre for arts and enterprise. The HTHCT has sent out information to say that the planning application is available to view at www.haringey.gov.uk/planning and at Haringey Council’s planning office at 639 High Road, Tottenham, N17 8BD.

Comments can be submitted online via www.haringey.gov.uk/planningor in writing to the same address, marked “Hornsey Town Hall application”.

A Development Management Forum will be held on Thursday 25th March at Hornsey Town Hall (7.00pm-9.00pm) and, after that, there will be an exhibition in Hornsey Library (in HaringeyPark, N8) – exact dates still to be confirmed but they will be announced as soon as HTHCT have more information on their website,www.hornsey-town-hall.org.uk.
