Steeped in history

This much-loved corner of West London is steeped in history but was suffering from the decline of traditional industries, leaving a mix of derelict buildings and neglected waterside. Working with our partners, the Canal and River Trust, and in consultation with the London Borough of Hounslow, we turned around the fortunes of the area, repurposing this under-utilised brownfield site into a thriving waterside community.

Inspiring shared spaces

Creating hundreds of new homes and inspired shared spaces that bring the community together, Brentford Lock West has drawn inspiration from its location and rich history, creating a new neighbourhood for the 21st Century. Community and connection to nature have been front and centre of its design, which includes communal courtyards, roof terraces, gardens and balconies with views of the water.
