South Lambeth
Lambeth Council has scrapped regeneration plans for Knights Walk Phase 2 and Trinity Rise, opting to retain existing homes.
Lambeth Council's Cabinet decided on 21 October 2026 to scrap regeneration plans for Knights Walk Phase 2 and Trinity Rise, which are part of the South Lambeth housing estate. This decision means 18 homes at Knights Walk Phase 2 and 11 council-owned homes at Trinity Rise, previously proposed for demolition, will now be retained and maintained. The council's Cabinet considered these recommendations as part of its New Homes Programme.
The consented scheme for 68 new homes at Knights Walk Phase 2 was deemed undeliverable due to significant site constraints, including proximity to a London Underground tunnel, restricted access, and a below-ground sewer requiring diversion, according to a report to the Cabinet. The South Lambeth project concerns a housing estate in Lambeth that has been under review for potential regeneration.
