The Planning Applications Committee of Lambeth Council is scheduled to convene on Tuesday 24 March 2026. The committee's agenda includes discussions on two significant planning applications: one for a residential development at 3 Highland Road, London, and another for a mixed-use development at 49 Brixton Station Road and 6 Canterbury Crescent, London.

3 Highland Road, London

The committee is set to consider a proposal for the demolition of existing buildings at 3 Highland Road, London and the erection of a new part 2, 3, and 4-storey building to create 16 residential units. The officer's recommendation is to grant conditional planning permission, subject to the completion of a deed under Section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990¹. This deed would contain planning obligations related to the development. Authority would be delegated to the Director of Planning and Sustainability to finalise conditions and negotiate these obligations. The report pack indicates that the proposal would incorporate associated landscaping, amenity space, playspace, car parking, cycle parking, and refuse storage.

49 Brixton Station Road and 6 Canterbury Crescent, London

A major mixed-use development is scheduled for discussion, involving the refurbishment and extension of 6 Canterbury Crescent² and the development of 49 Brixton Station Road³. The proposal aims to create a residential-led scheme comprising 288 homes, of which 98 would be affordable (Social Rent). It also includes flexible commercial, workspace, enterprise and community hub facilities, market trader infrastructure, servicing, car parking, and public realm improvements. The officer's recommendation is to grant conditional planning permission, contingent on the completion of a satisfactory deed under Section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. This deed would also need to incorporate any directions received following further referral to the Mayor of London. The report pack details that the scheme involves four blocks, with heights ranging up to 20 storeys, and aims to address identified needs for housing, affordable workspace, and market facilities within Brixton.
