Friary Park, Ealing

About:

Friary Park is an existing 1980s housing estate in LB Ealing. The current estate is arranged as a complex network of cul-de-sacs and meandering streets, scattered with informal parking, bin stores and very little amenity for residents. Originally built for private sale, the homes are undersized and in poor condition. Our site includes most of the original estate: 225 homes plus five additional privately-owned homes which unlock the development potential of the site.

The revived estate will provide up to 990 new homes with commercial and community spaces. A street-based masterplan will better connect the site into the surrounding neighbourhood and will improve and expand the underused Friar’s Green space along one edge to provide play and relaxation opportunities for the local community. Taller buildings are closer to the railway to the north and the lower, more domestic buildings are located by the Edwardian houses behind. The landscape provides amenity space for residents and their guests with widened ‘green’ streets and reduced vehicular access.
