Representation Summary:

The convent school and its grounds are the major elements of he conservation area (local plan 2004). They are not designated as Private Open Space, but should be.
The whole of the convent grounds make an important contribution to the townscape of this historic area. The open space lies in a densely populated and deprived part of the borough, with many hmo's and garden-less flats
Inappropriate development would squander the potential of precious assets for heritage-led regeneration.

Representation Summary:

As the Convent is a major component of the Magdalen Road Conservation Area, both the northern and southern spaces are deserving of designation as Private Open Space.

The present proposals are a clear breach of your Objective 3.

But please read the whole thing.

The Convent (Magdalen Road) has an inconsistency in the treatment by HBC of its two main spaces. One is defined as Private Open Space but not the other, the one that includes the playing fields. As the Convent is a major component of the Magdalen Road Conservation Area, both the northern and southern spaces are deserving of designation as Private Open Space.

The present proposals are a clear breach of your Objective 3.

Here is what Nick Antram [aka 'Pevsner'] wrote for HBC in 2007:
'The key open space is the land associated with the former convent on Magdalen Road. Although this is private space it reads as a significant open space in the conservation area and combines with White Rock Pleasure Grounds etc to form an important green lung separating urban St Leonards from urban Hastings. It is a striking feature of the wider urban conglomeration that the topography of White Rock, the East and West Hills bring the countryside into the towns and define the urban areas, St Leonards, Hastings and Hastings Old Town. Along the entire east side of Magdalen Road the open space behind the sandstone wall predominates and trees along this boundary are also important, notably Holm oaks.'

Furthermore, it's unfortunate that the Inset Map of Central St Leonards did not include White Rock Gardens, which are part of Central St Leonards Ward.

The boundary of Conservation Area 17 is wrong. It should include 6-8 Ellenslea Rd. An HBC commissioned Conservation Area report (2007) by Nichola Antram recommended that the Kings Rd Conservation Area should be extended to include 6-8 Ellenslea Rd and 1-3 Chapel Park Rd because of their prominence and townscape merit. Subsequently 6-7 Ellenslea Rd was included in the Conservation Area.

Representation Summary:

The northern part of the Convent ground should be designated as open space. According to Council statistics St Leonards Warrior Sq. is one of the most deprived & overcrowded in the South East. The buildings and open space should be made available for the public rather than add more overbuilding increasing overcrowding in the area. The development will ruin the historical character of a Conservation Area, infringement of Policy C1c. Save the Pugin Chapel.

HBC strongly favours Options 1A and 1B, with 1B preferred, as 1A does not fully address improvements needed to the A21 route. RDC similarly favour Option 1B although feel that the justification for encroachment on the High Weald of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and impact on the residents of the Holiday Park should be more closely appraised.

I feel that the area known as Speckled Wood should not just be designated a Green Space but named a Local Nature Reserve as it was supposed to be agreed by the November Hastings Cabinet 2012. I do feel however in my opinion that the woodland should be reconsidered as a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

My opinion in this matter does not waiver and I believe this has been demonstrated time and time again in multiple communication with your department. Clearly I believe it is the time for this matter to be concluded in favour of retaining this woodland.
