Kidbrooke Village, Greenwich
At Kidbrooke Village, we are replacing the brutal Ferrier Estate with an exemplary sustainable suburb.
Our intention is to create a new village for London. Not just housing but a close-knit community with shops, schools, squares and parks, set in 86 acres of beautiful open space.
The first phase of this 20-year programme rehoused hundreds of the existing residents in handsome modern homes and reconnected the site with its surroundings. Since then, more than 1,500 homes have been provided for a whole range of people - young and old, professionals and families - with a complete mix of tenures.
Kidbrooke Village is brought to life by a year-round programme of community events and clubs, with many set up and run by the residents themselves. The tradition of a summer fête is now well established, as well as a farmers' market, Christmas celebration, and workshops, field trips and nature volunteering run by the London Wildlife Trust.
