Site Description
The site is situated on Lark Christian Street in Tower Hamlets and is located approximately 330 meters to the south of Commercial Road (A13), which provides access in and out of central London.
The site is located 0.4 miles from Shadwell Overground station and 0.5 miles from Aldgate East Underground station.
The surrounding area comprises mixed residential and commercial uses in the Whitechapel area to the north. The residential areas of Tobacco Dock and Wapping are to the south towards the Thames.
The site is a 15 minute journey to Liverpool Street station, with access to national rail services.
The site measures approximately 0.016 acres (0.0064 ha) in size and is currently occupied by parking spaces and vehicular access to the adjacent site. The site is accessed directly from Christian Street.
The southern boundary of the site abuts the East London Markazi Masjid Mosque whilst the western and northern boundaries abut private gardens and courtyards. There is a lapsed planning consent on the site for a 3 storey single residential dwelling.
NOTE: Rights of access to the adjacent plot restrict the ground floor footprint to approximately half of the total site area (approx. 33sqm). Planning advice suggests development would be permitted above ground floor level.
