12 sites regeneration - Harold Hill Town Centre
We have been consulting with residents to find out their views about the future of the Farnham and Hilldene Estate since 2016.
The Farnham and Hilldene shopping area is a key place for Harold Hill's residents and businesses.
In March 2021, the Council’s cabinet committed to significant investment in the area to ensure it continues to be a beacon for the neighbourhood and the whole community to enjoy.
In addition to redeveloping Farnham and Hilldene Estate two neighbouring sites, Chippenham Road and the old library site, were added to be delivered as a single masterplan vision.
We have begun to explore what benefits the investment could bring to the area, its residents, businesses and the wider community.
Sites:
- 1 - Family Welcome Centre and Medical Centre
- 2 - Chippenham Road
- 3 - Farnham and Hilldene Estate
Wider Estate:
- 2 - St George's Parish Church and Centre
- 3 - Harold Hill Library
"I can’t say a bad word about the way it was handled. The officers were fantastic. We feel very settled and grateful."
