Kidbrooke; Final meeting of series nine of TEN

The final session in the TEN Group’s ninth series focussed on how to make large housing schemes viable, with a visit to the Berkeley Group’s redevelopment of the old Ferrier Estate at Kidbrooke in the London Borough of Greenwich. The Group were impressed by the quality of the development, which is bound to win lots of design awards. Thanks to John Anderson, Chairman of the Berkeley Group region leading the development, we also learned a lot about the underlying principles needed to make new housing viable in the current economic circumstances.
