			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-532" title="plans" src="http://www.lordshiprec.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/plans-240x240.png" alt="" width="240" height="240" />The Lordship Recreation Ground regeneration scheme has been submitted to Haringey Council&#8217;s planning department for approval. Getting such an approval is an essential precondition for receiving the funding needed from the Heritage Lottery Fund.

<p>If you wish to look through all the key documents (and there are LOTS! &#8211; see * below), the application number is HGY/2010/0471, and you can click on the link below:</p>
