Castle Lane Development

Update from your St James's Councillors 

Following substantial pressure from your ward Councillors, LandSec are now progressing with the refurbishment of Castle Lane to accommodate 88 affordable homes. 

Having remained vacant for a number of years, LandSec will now deliver the following homes in partnership with Notting Hill Genesis:

  • 26 London affordable rent
  • 34 Intermediate rent
  • 28 shared ownership

Notwithstanding the significant delay to starting the works, your St James’s ward Councillors are delighted to see this much needed additional housing be made available. We understand the homes will be completed by January 2024.

For further information, please sign up for the contactors' newsletter via their website choosing the site name Castle Lane - Westminster.
