WELCOMEWELCOME TO OUR EXHIBITION OF PROPOSALS FOR NEW HOMES BETWEEN ALGERNON AND EMBLETON ROADSIn partnership with Lewisham Council, Lewisham Homes is working to address the shortage of council homes in the Borough as part of its ‘New Homes, Better Places programme’.
Housing is in short supply across the borough and we need to create new homes to address this.
The proposals you see here are for new council homes at a site between Algernon and Embleton roads.
This exhibition is intended to update residents on how the proposed design has changed since receiving your feedback from our last exhibition. It is also an opportunity for you to learn about the the process in general and ask any questions you have.

CONTEXTWe are proposing to develop a site that is bounded by Embleton Road to the west andAlgernon Road to the east.
The site is next to two post-war blocks of flatsof two and three storeys, each with a centralstairwell.
There are 17 garages on the site, which is next toa large green space with mature trees betweenthe blocks.
There is a significant difference in level betweenthe two blocks, taken up by retaining walls andterraces running through the centre of the site.
It is proposed to demolish 13 existing garages atthe southern end of the site to provide four newfamily homes.
We propose to make this a car free development, meaning that the new residents will not be ableto apply for parking permits.

There are two types of housing - terraced and flats.
The development will act as a visual link between these styles.
Trees will be retained, maintaining privacy and amenity.
Retaining walls and terraces split the central space.
Existing buildings present blank gable walls.
Rear windows and deck access overlook the centre of the site.
Rear access to the ground floor flats needs to be retained.
Potential for access between Embleton and Algernon Roads.

Proposed
1938 map showing the Embleton/Algernon block pre-bomb damage.
Trees will be retained, maintaining privacy and amenity. The development is carefully designed to minimise overlooking and promote passive surveillance as shown in the diagram to the left, which highlights the positions of windows in relation to each other.
There are two types of housing in the immediate area - Victorian terraced houses and the more recent flatted blocks of 11-23 Embleton Road and 34-64 Algernon Road.
The development will act as a visual link between these styles, returning the street to the coherent perimeter block that existed before bomb damage sustained during WWII.
It will have a more contemporary appearance but take design reference from the Victorian dwellings - such as the bay windows and smaller first floor windows, window reveal details and the use of London stock brickwork. It also takes reference from the post war flatted blocks in some elements of its design - such as the front canopy.

The development will provide a new pedestrian route between Algernon and Embleton Roads, with front doors to the middle units overlooking the central amenity space. In doing so the new homes will be better connected with the neighbourhood and its community.

PlinthThe ground level walls will be constructed from a different, heavier material from that of the upper levels. This approach helps to ground the dwellings, giving a sense of permanence and connection with the surrounding buildings. Brick will match the context.
Pitched RoofPitched roofs reference the neighbouring buildings. Existing properties present roof eaves to the street. Our proposal echoes this roofscape variety but uses a contemporary roof covering in place of dark coloured tiles.
BrickworkThe plinth used to wrap the ground floors will use feature brickwork patterns, such as ‘hit and miss’. This provides a balance of screening and visibility in and out of the house, gives depth and layering to the facade and allows vegetation to establish easily.
