Homerton Baptist Church
Community-led redevelopment of outdated church to create enlarged multi-use community centre, church and flats
In collaboration with Spacelab, NT+A successfully secured planning permission for this contemporary development which provides residential homes while supporting local community benefit
The approved development involved the demolition of a church that could no longer adequately serve the requirements of its growing community. Through this approved 24-flat scheme, a replacement and enlarged church was funded, creating a new facility at ground and lower ground levels. Following pre-application discussions with the London Borough of Hackney, the approved application successfully addressed the Council’s concerns regarding community amenity, accessibility, transport and design, thereby delivering on a sustainable and comprehensive development within an important corner site location.
