Don’t forget that today is your last day to respond to the Merton regen proposals. No matter what your opinion might be, we would encourage you to respond to the overall design as it will change Ravensbury forever if it goes through unchallenged.
The scale of the development is immense for the area and it appears that there will not be any more social housing provision than there currently is. Ravensbury Estate is next to the River Wandle so all these extra buildings and paving areas will serve to further compromise our area in the middle of a flood zone. Plenty of trees also will be removed both inside the regen area and outside.
Hengelo Gardens and Ravensbury Grove will significantly change if these proposals go unchallenged.
The 4 storey blocks of flats proposed along Ravensbury Grove will significantly change the character of Ravensbury so please write into: planning.representations@merton.gov.uk – Quote Ref 17/P1718
Good luck!

Hi Chris,
Why would trees outside the regen area be removed? Which trees are you referring to?

Trees on Ravensbury Grove, Ravensbury Court side. They want to put on parking. Download the regen tree report from the council website.
