An outline planning application is soon to be
submitted for the regeneration of the Heygate
Estate. The application will set out the principles
of the proposed development. It is not an
application for the detailed design of buildings.
An outline planning application is the most
appropriate form of application for large scale
regeneration schemes, which are to be delivered
over a number of years as it allows flexibility in
the delivery and design of the scheme to be able
to take account of changing local and economic
circumstances, and for variations in the final
architectural design of the individual buildings.
The application seeks approval for the amount
and uses of development within defined
development plots.
To support this information a level of detail will
also be provided on the following:
• Access
• Scale
• Layout
• Appearance
• Landscaping
This suite of documents (blue boxes above) gives
the Council the detail required to determine the
outline planning application along with other
supporting documents.

Plan showing indicative plots within the Outline Masterplan Application
Once the principles and scope of the
development have been established by the
outline planning application, the detailed design
of the individual plots will then be submitted to
the Council for approval in stages.
These are called reserved matters applications
and submissions will need to comply with the
approved outline application. Our intention is
Indicative phasing programme
to utilise different architects for specific plots /
elements to ensure variety in the detailed design.
The reserved matters submissions will be subject
to a similar consultation and approval process
as a normal detailed planning application, as
described in the diagram on this board.

It is proposed that there are 4 stages of
demolition of which the first three stages will
take approximately 2 years. Stage 4 demolition
is subject to consultation with Crossway Church
regarding relocation. A number of these stages
are expected to overlap.
Demolition
Working with Southwark Council we are aiming
to start demolition in 2013. At each stage of the
demolition some or all of the following would be
required:
• Survey/recording and subsequent
demolition of existing buildings
• Conditions survey of roads and buildings
surrounding the area of demolition/
construction
• Site investigation (soil type, contamination
and ground conditions)
• Service infrastructure works
• Tree protection works
• Site clearance and enabling works
An Environmental management and mitigation
plan would be prepared and agreed with
statutory bodies including Southwark Council’s
Environment and Highways Departments.
Construction
Construction will take place in phases over 12
years. Construction is due to start on the first
plot in 2015.
All construction works will be registered with the
‘Considerate Constructors scheme’ which is an
industry Code of Practice to minimise negative
impacts from construction and recognise and
reward contractors that raise standards of
site management, safety and environmental
awareness beyond statutory requirements.
During demolition and construction works there
will be regular communication with neighbouring
residents, and letters will notify residents of
any special or unusual activities, such as large
deliveries or road closures.
A site waste management plan would also be
prepared, and we will target diversion of 90% of
demolition waste from landfill.
Estate Management
As soon as buildings are complete they are
handed over to the estate management team
who will address ongoing operational issues such
as:
• Waste management
• Transport co-ordination
• Building Maintenance
• Landscaping Maintenance
• Security and Safety

Process
Consultation on the masterplan
began in early 2011. There have
been regular meetings with the
local planning authority, the GLA
and other regulatory bodies.
Consultation with the community
has been extensive with an array
of events engaging with well over
600 local residents, community
groups, schools and businesses,
including:
• Public exhibitions
• Workshops
• Liaison Groups
• Community Forum Meetings
• Outreach

• 1 Retention of existing street trees
• 2 Significant increase in size of park
and a reduction in the overall

community buildings now have the
potential to be in most plots)*
• 5 Replacement of raised courtyards
with ground level courtyards in
some residential plots
• 6 Buildings reduced in height
• 7 Increased width of public
realm along Walworth Road to
accommodate some of the existing
