It has been fantastic to be part of the Merton Sites’ team, who have combined efforts to achieve a multimillion-pound investment from the Mayor of London to support the building of the borough’s first new council homes in a generation. The schemes were previously approved in August 2023 and included 22% affordable housing across all sites. The project team submitted applications to amend under Section 73, all four of which were approved unanimously at Merton Planning Committee, which we propose to increase to 100% affordability. These are great news for all the teams involved in the project, and the Merton community, as they will provide affordable spaces for people to live, addressing the pressing need for housing in London.

The new Chancellor - Rt Hon Rachel Reeves and Deputy Prime Minister - Angela Rayner visited Berkeley Homes’ Oval Village regeneration scheme the day after the election result. This visit highlighted the new government’s commitment to delivering new homes and a greater focus on brownfield development. Oval Village, in the London Borough of Lambeth, is a really good example of a regeneration scheme, realising the potential of a brownfield land in central London and the visit highlighted the importance of such high quality schemes for the country. Over the past 8 years Berkeley Group Plc have worked with Lambeth, Rolfe Judd Architecture and Rolfe Judd Planning, Formation Architects, GRID Architects and Waterman Group’s engineers to bring this masterplan to reality. Comprising of affordable and for sale housing, and over 170,000 sqft of mixed used commercial space, this is a true mixed use and mixed tenure scheme. It delivers infrastructure for the existing and new sustainable community in the form of energy, public realm and amenity. Rolfe Judd Architecture’s design of the No.1 Gas holder is set to become the pivotal component of the regeneration, refurbishing this iconic asset. Rolfe Judd have been part of the local community for over 50 years and we are immensely proud of giving new life and purpose to this historic structure that is only a stone's throw away from our office. We look forward to continuing to work with Berkeley Homes and Lambeth to complete the project and we hope the Chancellor and Deputy Prime Minister continue to keep an eye on the scheme to see how residential led development can reinvigorate and benefit local communities.
