IntroductionThe application sets out proposals for the redevelopment of part of the Winstanley Estate and the majority of the York Road Estate together with York Gardens, which are located to the north of Clapham Junction Station and south of York Road and the River Thames. The site covers an area of 10.52 ha to which Wandsworth Council are the majority owner. Wandsworth Council have entered into an agreement with the major UK housebuilder, Taylor Wimpey, to comprehensively redevelop the site. The two parties have formed a joint company called the Winstanley and York Road Regeneration LLP who have submitted the application.

The application proposals involve the phased demolition of all buildings on site and the reprovision of a new York Gardens Park centrally within the site with new housing, a leisure and community centre and other uses set around the proposed new park. The proposals will ensure the replacement of all existing residential accommodation and provide a significant quantity of additional new residential accommodation with a mix of unit sizes and tenure types. The total number of residential units proposed is up to 2,550.
