WELCOME

Welcome to the consultation website for Kensal Green Gasworks.

This website summarises: the planning applications for the St William site submitted in July 2025 and the update to the planning applications submitted in November 2025, outlines next steps and suggested ways to get involved.

St William submitted two planning applications for the site in July 2025: the St William Development Planning Application and the Canal Way Works Planning Application.

St William submitted an update to the St William Development Planning Application. Further details and images can be found here. St William plans to deliver around 775 new homes, including 16% affordable housing measured by habitable room. All the affordable housing is proposed as Social Rent and prioritising family housing. St William will deliver a new publicly accessible landscaped park as well as providing significant upgrades to local buses, local walking and cycle infrastructure and substantial contributions to local social infrastructure.

HM Government and Mayor of London announced emergency measures to support house building in London in response to ‘high interest rates, spiralling construction costs, regulatory blockers and wider economic conditions’ that together have caused a development standstill. The update to the St William application is to ensure the site remains viable and deliverable, despite the significant challenges acknowledged by HM Government and Mayor of London outlined above.

This website will be updated to provide details of the on-going work St William are doing including an update on the Site Investigation works on going on the site as well as dates and opportunities to get in touch with a member of the team ahead of a target planning committee in 2026.
