Aylesbury redevelopment

Schedule for building the new homes

The old homes are being demolished and the new homes are being built in phases, site by site (see the map below). This will enable as many existing Aylesbury residents, as possible, to move to the new homes within the footprint of the existing estate.

Here’s an update on what is happening and when on each site.

First Development Site (FDS), next to Westmoreland Road

More than 800 new homes, including 581 brand new council homes, a community centre, two new play parks and a public square

  • Construction has started on building new homes on the First Development Site (off Westmoreland Road).

  • The first two phases of development will deliver 581 brand new council homes and a community facility.

  • The first of these new homes are being built by the construction company Hill and will be ready to move into by the end of 2021.

  • There will be a new community centre built on-site and two new play parks. There will also be a new public square on Westmoreland Road,tree-lined streets and on-street parking.

  • The new homes include specialist housing. There will be 54 Extra Care homes for older people with particular needs and seven homes for people with learning disabilities. This means we can help more people to live independently.

  • If you used to live on what is now the First Development Site and would like to move to a new home on the site, please email aylesburyhousing@southwark.gov.uk

 

Plot 18 (the Old Amersham Site next to Thurlow Street)

A new library, a health centre, a nursery, a public square and more than 100 new homes

  • Construction is well underway on this site.

  • The new buildings will be arranged around a beautiful new public square that will face onto Thurlow Street.

  • 23 of the new homes will be social rent homes for people aged 55 and over.

  • The entire development – library, health centre and nursery, as well as all the new homes and square – should be complete by the middle of 2022.

 

Phase 2 (the area to the east of Thurlow Street)

More than 1,000 new homes, new parks, sports facilities and a nursery

  • Notting Hill Genesis is currently working on designs for the Phase 2 development. It will deliver new homes, new parks, sports facilities and another nursery.

  • We want to hear your views and ideas for the designs. Residents will be invited to take part in consultation events in 2021. We expect construction to begin in 2024/25 and to complete in stages.

  • Secure tenants living in existing buildings in Phase 2 are currently bidding for homes through the council's homesearch system.
