Cressingham Gardens estate
above the western corner of Brockwell Park
was built between 1967 and 1979 to the designs of
Lambeth Borough Architects, l
ed by Edward Hollamby.
It is impressive for the quality of the accommodation
and layout, and for its striking landscape setting.
it has extensive Gardens and
a magical community spirit and is a
rare example of corporate sensitivity with
regard to human scale housing in an urban setting.
The estate is currently under threat
from proposals by Lambeth Council
to demolish and redevelop the site for profit.
