In changeset 158044871, I've jsut added planning refs (P2018/2269/FUL) to the three sites.

If you look up that ref on the Islington portal (https://planning.agileapplications.co.uk/islington/search-applications/ ) you can see what was planned back in 2018, and pick through revisions since. ...

Looks like this is it https://www.stmartinoftours.org.uk/services/davenant-road/. Possibly a social facility, but perhaps tread warily with such tagging. It may be they want to stay discrete. I know of group homes which are not visible as such from the road.
