The leader of the group campaigning against the planned Maggie's Centre at St Bartholemew's Hospital, London, has launched judicial review proceedings to block the contentious scheme. Marcus Setchell, the retired gynaecologist who delivered Prince George, claims the designs would have a detrimental impact on the Smithfield hospital's Grade I~*listed Great Hall and has launched a legal action in the High Court against the recent approval for the project. Setchell is challenging the City of London's decision in July to back the Steven Holl-designed cancer care centre (AJ 17.07.14), arguing that the City had failed to take into account the 'significant harm the development will cause to the 800-year-old UNESCO listed site'.
