Our work involved the provision of townscape, visual and heritage advice to gain a thorough understanding of the site and its context, with particular focus on the site’s location in relation to the Old Oak Lane Conservation Area and adjacent to the Grand Union Canal. The townscape and heritage analysis informed the design development of the massing including identifying sensitivities in relation to height and scale.
Old Oak Common and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) unanimously resolved to grant planning permission for the Build to Rent scheme which will consist of studios, one-bed, two-bed and three-bed homes, with 137 (35% by habitable room) provided at either London Living Rent or Discount Market Rent levels. Speaking in support of the application, a local teacher addressed the committee stating, ‘without more homes coming forward, I will have to leave London altogether’.
The site at Atlas Wharf, on Atlas Road NW10 and adjacent to the Grand Union Canal, signifies a significant step forward for the wider regeneration of the area as the first major consent in the new Channel Gate town centre planned in the recently adopted Local Plan. Whilst within the London Borough of Ealing, the site falls under the jurisdiction of the OPDC and is identified in the emerging plan as part of a new town centre.
The scheme at Old Oak is Pocket’s first Build to Rent development and includes three buildings, all connected at ground floor level via a podium, containing a shared entrance, resident amenity spaces, cycle storage and commercial and retail uses that will be open to the public.
