Chippenham Road update Introduction

The site forms the continuation of the new development at Farnham Road. This new district centre presents an opportunity for a civic and community-focussed route southbound into the site.

Our proposed development at the Chippenham Road site will provide highly sustainable new homes. We are currently in discussions with the Church, Vicarage and Undertaker to understand their role in the project.

Welcome to the public consultation for the regeneration of the Farnham and Hilldene Estate.

Havering Council have been consulting with residents about the future of the Farnham & Hilldene Estate since 2016.

We have recently invited architects Mikhail Riches to join the design team for this site.

The Farnham and Hilldene shopping area is a key place for Harold Hill’s residents and businesses. The area needs investment to help continue to make it a beacon for the neighbourhood and the whole community to continue to enjoy.

Mikhail Riches were awarded the 2019 Stirling Prize (a prestigious award for British registered architects) for their project at Goldsmith Street for Norwich City Council. This development of social housing meets the rigorous Passivhaus standards making them some of the most environmentally sustainable homes available.

The Council have begun to explore what change the investment in the area could deliver and the benefits it can bring residents, business and the wider community.

We are keen to understand what aspirations people have for this site - more open space, better connections, etc.

Please leave us your ideas.

This event has been designed to provide an update on progress, introduced the architects and their initial thoughts, and understand your priorities for the area.

The team are still very much in the early stages of the design process and need your feedback to help build a shared vision for the future of Farnham and Hilldene Estate.
