Overview
The site on the Becklow Gardens estate was previously occupied by dilapidated garages and provides an opportunity for the delivery of high-quality new homes in the borough.
Experienced architects PRP have been appointed to deliver a highly sustainable development.
As the developer of this project, Hammersmith & Fulham Council will retain the ownership of the site and will manage all affordable homes, along with the maintenance of communal and external areas.
New homes
At least 50% of the new homes will be affordable (including social rented and shared ownership homes) and the buildings will be designed to the latest sustainability standards.
Current position
Thank you to everyone who took part in phase 2 of the consultation for this development during September.

Becklow Gardens playground closure
We recently carried out site investigation works which involved digging several small holes into the ground around the Becklow Gardens estate.
While carrying out these works the contractors discovered a disused sewer, located beneath the playground area. We have been advised that to ensure continued stability and safety of the playground, we need to carry out repair works to the sewer.
Therefore, we have had to close the playground until further notice as it is currently considered unsafe to use.
Further surveys have been commissioned to understand the extent of the works required to ensure that the playground is safe to use. We are committed to ensuring that the playground is reopened as soon as possible.
