    Certificate of lawfulness (proposed) for the erection of outdoor fitness equipment and re-positioning of existing paling fencing within an existing outdoor fitness area. The site forms a small part of a 30 acre sports ground and is located to the rear of the Hollington Sports Pavilion. Until recently the fitness area was the dedicated car park for the pavilion but fell into disuse when Southwark LPA granted planning permission to construct a new dwelling on the access road from Burbage Road. The popularity of the outdoor fitness facility has motivated the applicant to improve thestandard of the facility and equipment available for use by members and the local community. This application relates to these facilities. The principle access to the facility will be from Gallery Road via an existing pedestrian gate and footpath
