Welcome to the dedicated website for community updates on the redevelopment of the former Richmond upon Thames College site in Twickenham, known as Twickenham Square.
Following planning approval in 2022, Latimer – the development arm of Clarion Housing Group – is working with London Square to bring forward 212 new homes on part of the Egerton Road Campus.
Background
In 2022 Latimer received planning approval to demolish the former campus buildings and create a new, mixed-tenure scheme of 212 new homes – with 51% of the new homes being affordable for local people.
The new homes, designed by BPTW architects, form part of the borough’s wider college project which also includes a replacement college campus, two new schools, an extended sports hall and a science hub. Click here to find out more about the Richmond Education and Enterprise Campus.
Upcoming construction works
Initial works will be taking place on site in January 2024, including the delivery and set-up of staff welfare facilities and site offices.
Works will largely follow this indicative sequence:
- Site setup including hoardings and on-site facilities.
- Disconnection and diversion of utilities, including the relocation of the existing substation.
- Demolition of the existing structures in two phases, moving east to west.
- Infrastructure works of new roads and drainage.
- Groundworks and foundations.
- Structural works.
- Building facades.
- Building fit-out and internal works.
- External works and landscaping.
The project will be delivered in two phases, moving east to west across the site, with the first new homes to be delivered in winter 2025 and the overall project completed in mid-2027.
