Overview
The proposed development 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
Our proposals will deliver:
- 20 new affordable homes (6 for social rent and 14 for shared ownership)
- A well-designed building, between 3 and 5 storeys in height, to reduce impact on neighbours
- A new playground with modern equipment for the community to use
- A green roof with solar panels and air source heat pumps to provide renewable electricity for the new homes
Current position - Have your say!
Thank you to everyone who was able to join either of the recent public exhibitions where we showed the detailed designs for the new homes and playground.
Visit our Have Your Say page to read the latest project information and complete our online survey. The survey will close on 6 February 2025 at 5pm.
Becklow Gardens playground closure
The playground has been shut for safety reasons following discovery of disused sewer beneath the playground area.
We will be carrying out rectification works to the playground, starting Monday 17 February 2025.
Hours of work will be from 8am to 4pm, and we expect the works to last three days. The works will take place inside the playground area so there should be no obstructed access to estate roads.
The contractor will excavate and expose the old storm water drain, and backfill the area. Once the work is completed the playground will be checked for safety before being reopened.
