Barnet Council's Strategic Planning Committee refused planning permission for the comprehensive redevelopment of the Great North Leisure Park on Chaplin Square, London, N12 0GL, citing concerns over the density and scale of the proposed development in relation to the site's accessibility and suburban context. The committee agreed that the proposal's height, massing, and bulk would be inappropriate for the area and lead to overdevelopment. The decision will now be referred to the Mayor of London for review.
