26/06/2024 - It’s hiding in plain sight – a giant area of Battersea that many of its immediate neighbours have never been to. In and among the railway arches between Queenstown Road and Nine Elms, this tangle of industrial sites is home to a bewildering array of businesses – including a concrete batching plant, a large bus depot, a railway maintenance site, scrap metal recycling, bakeries for the likes of Crosstown Doughnuts and Madeira Portuguese patisserie, food warehouses, a tile warehouse, and a large area of self storage – as well as several multi-tenant office spaces that house a vast number of Collapse

Regeneration of Winstanley & York estates: Is the Council undermining current residents to push sales?

27/05/2024 - Reza Tolou is a 74-year-old pensioner and flat owner in Darien House, located on Darien Road in the heart of Winstanley Estate. This four-storey walk-up block of flats, built in 1934 to designs by Battersea’s Borough Engineer, was part of a redevelopment project in the 1930s. Reza purchased the flat in the late 1990s and lived there until 2008. With two young children and needing more space, he moved out and began renting the flat. Now retired, Mr Tolou relies deeply on the rental income to supplement his pension. However, since the Council bought the flat next door two years Collapse

21/05/2024 - Prezzemolo & Vitale is the latest business to open in what used to be Debenhams’ beauty section at Clapham Junction – and brings a proper emporium of all things Italian – including a wide selection of cheese, meat and charcuterie, drinks, fruit and veg, and bakery produce. There’s also a cafe selling Morettino’s coffee and equipped with a generous supply of Sicilian specialties including Cassata, Cannoli and organic cakes, as well as a food-to-go offer including sandwiches, salads, cold cuts and cheeses, to eat in at the cafe or take away. Official opening was Monday last week (13 May), though a soft launch on Collapse

Like a cat: Clapham Common’s most historic house escapes demolition yet again!

03/07/2024 - Planning permission to knock down a rather unique historic house on Clapham Common and redevelop with a taller ‘pastiche’ replacement has been refused by the Council. A few months ago we wrote about a rather unique house, hidden away between the big Victorian houses along the north side of Clapham Common. 64 Clapham Common Northside is much smaller and simpler building than its neighbours. It also looks very forgotten, with boarded-up windows, a neglected garden, and a hole in the roof. Early days of the building This small house was built in the 1780s, and belonged to John Cunningham (whose son, also Collapse

Rough Sleeper Hub approved on Lavender Hill in a highly consensual meeting

26/05/2024 - Wandsworth Council approved plans for a new rough sleepers’ hub at last week’s planning committee meeting. On Tuesday 21 May, the monthly meeting of the planning committee approved the council’s proposal (p.a. 2023/3434) to establish a hub in Lavender Hill, Battersea. It was not unexpected as we noted last month: Councils rarely reject their own applications, so it would have been extraordinary to see the scheme refused. The surprise came with the timing of the committee review, which occurred immediately after the closure of the consultation period, making it seem like a done deal that just needed a rubber stamp.

Garratt Lane: the desperate need for affordable housing is worth some compromises says Labour

10/05/2024 - A revised application proposing a 36% increase has been granted on Garratt Lane. Although harm to the surrounding area was acknowledged, it was outweighed by the offer of 100% social homes on the site. However, the argument that Wandsworth needed to build more to achieve its housing target is much more controversial. A proposal to build a total of 113 social rented residential units in buildings ranging in height from 3 to 7 storeys, together with a new health centre and pharmacy, and two commercial units as phase 2 of the Garratt Lane redevelopment has been approved last month by 5 Collapse
One Battersea Bridge new submission with 34 storeys: still a massive breach of the Local Plan

19/04/2024 - The developers of the site at One Battersea Bridge have submitted a new application, which bears little change from the previous one. The proposal remains to replace the current glass-clad building on the southern bank of the river, situated at the base of Battersea Bridge, with a tower of more than 30 storeys, blatantly breaching the Local Plan’s restrictions limiting the area to about 6 storeys. The new proposed development consists of one tower reaching a maximum of 34 storeys (including ground), with up to 174 m2 of commercial floorspace at ground floor and up to 142 residential units (in Collapse

As the colony of Lime bikes grows, can Wandsworth bring order to the chaos?

16/06/2024 - Wandsworth has a complicated relationship with cycle hire schemes! Lots of residents don’t own cars, and we’re close to the centre of London – which means it’s a Borough where a lot of people cycle. Maybe because of this, the Council is pretty supportive of cycling – and has strongly supported TfL’s Santander Cycles. They got enthusiastically involved from the start to get most of the north of the Borough included – which is why there was quite a notable stretch on the initial coverage area to include Wandsworth town centre! They’ve kept going since then: Lavender Hill itself used Collapse
The huge tower for Battersea Bridge is now an official planning application

24/05/2024 - A tower in excess of 33 storeys has been proposed for Battersea bridge, following a round of submission for scoping opinions with the Council. The scheme appears in total breach of Wandsworth planning policies. Yesterday 21 May 2024, Promontoria Battersea Limited (‘PBL’, a subsidiary of Promontoria Holding) has eventually submitted a formal planning application for a tower of 33-storeys (in reality at least 34 floors as the “first floor” is a double level for retail). Following their scoping opinion request submitted last month, they have now moved to a full application, with the same characteristics: a 34-storeys (they claim 33 Collapse
Springfield Hospital: A fascinating debate leading to a refusal

08/05/2024 - The Planning Committee has refused the proposal for a development on the Springfield site seeking permission to build an additional 449 residential units, in addition to the 839 already being constructed. The surprising result occurred as two Labour councillors joined the Conservative members to oppose the plan. The refusal to extend the redevelopment of the Springfield hospital site came as a surprise to many, as it appeared to meet criteria for extending the provision of affordable housing in the borough. This consideration played a key role in the recommendation for approval made by planning officers and is a significant policy Collapse
