An application has been submitted to redevelop a former builders’ yard, designated as a “scattered employment site” but constrained and no longer viable for modern business use. The scheme proposes 34 new homes, arranged within a five-storey mansion block fronting London Road and a series of courtyard houses to the rear, all set around a landscaped communal garden. Designed in brick with inset terraces, green roofs and generous private amenity, the project aligns with London Plan Policy H2 on small sites and responds directly to Merton’s housing delivery shortfall under the Housing Delivery Test.
