3A1_Kenwood

Viewing instructions:
All images should be viewed in ‘full screen’ mode by clicking the ‘+’ icon in the top right of the image. When the image is opened in full screen mode you will see a scale bar at the bottom of each image. Use the scroll wheel zoom function and a ruler held against the screen to ensure the scale bar correctly measures 10cm when viewed at a normal viewing distance (approximately arms length). The size of objects in the view will then equate approximately to the size they would appear when viewed at the scene. This technique is known as ‘Real Scale’ viewing

LVMF – Kenwood 3
Kenwood House is in North London, bordering Hampstead Heath. There is one viewing location at Kenwood, situated at the viewing gazebo. There is one Assessment Point at the viewing location, point 3A.1. This assessment point forms the start of a Protected Vista.


Viewing Location 3A
Assessment Point 3A.1:
Assessment Point 3A.1 is orientated towards St. Paul’s Cathedral. The position is identical to that described in the current LVMF guidance published in 2007.
The Viewing Corridor at the centre of the Cathedral is 140m wide and encloses the main Cathedral dome and Western Towers, equal to that in the 2007 guidance. Minor changes have been made to the coordinates of the Viewing Corridor at the dome. These changes are not significant.
The Left Lateral Assessment Area has been widened from 70m in 2007 to 110m in 2009 at the dome of St. Paul’s.
An additional Right Lateral Assessment Area has been added to the Protected Vista at a width of 50m at the dome of St. Paul’s.
The Background Assessment Area has been widened from approximately 276m to approximately 394m.
The threshold height levels remain consistent between the 2007 and draft 2009 guidance.
