2-14 Telford Road and 246-248 Ladbroke Grove development
Kensington and Chelsea Council has granted planning permission for the 2-14 Telford Road development despite resident objections.
Kensington and Chelsea Council's Planning Committee granted planning permission in October 2026 for the development at 2-14 Telford Road and 246-248 Ladbroke Grove, which includes a new nursery and 27 residential flats. This decision was made despite significant resident objections regarding overdevelopment, the potential loss of daylight and sunlight, and the absence of affordable housing contributions.
The approval followed extensive debate, with residents and ward councillors raising concerns about the impact on neighbouring living conditions and the scale of the proposed part four, part five, and part six-storey structure. The project involves the demolition of an existing building and its replacement with this new development.
