SITE WORKS UPDATE
Please note that the dismantling of the former Homebase store will be starting this week, taking approximately two months. Working hours will be in line with the approved planning permission, between 8am-6pm on weekdays and between 9am-1pm on Saturday.
Following changes in legislation, we now have circa eighteen months of work to do on detailed design and obtaining regulatory approvals before we can start works on the foundations of the buildings. As a result, following dismantling of the store, there will be some enabling works and investigations next year; however, no buildings will begin to be constructed above ground until 2026.
Should you have any queries about the works on site please contact syonlane.consultation@berkeleygroup.co.uk. Contact details are also displayed on the site boundary.
PLANNING UPDATE
We would like to let you know that we have submitted an application to the council to make some minor changes to the approved plans for the former Homebase site on Syon Lane.
The changes have been developed to bring the plans in line with the latest building regulations.
Thank you to everyone who attended our consultation events in July. We are grateful for your input.

July 2024 Update
St Edward Homes would like to invite you to find out about progress with the redevelopment of the Tesco and Homebase stores on Syon Lane.
Planning permission was granted in December 2023 creating an exciting opportunity to deliver a brand new Tesco Extra superstore, up to 2,150 new low carbon homes, including 35% (up to 750) affordable homes, new community spaces, a new park and shops.
We are planning to hold exhibitions on Tuesday 16 July and Saturday 20 July so that you can hear about the next steps for the developments, and share your views about some minor amendments we’re planning to make to the Homebase development in response to recent updates in regulations.
If you can’t make one of these events and would like to speak to us at another time please just get in touch via the contact details below. Full details are contained in the leaflet which you can download below.
We very much look forward to meeting you and hearing your feedback on these proposals for the community.
June 2024 Update
As we look forward to the future of these sites, we’re planning a range of public engagement activities to keep local residents informed and involved in the development process. We’ll provide further updates on these activities in the coming months by sending out flyers, but do feel free to sign up to our subscription link under ‘Get in touch’ below or check back on this website occasionally.
In the meantime, you may have noticed hoarding being placed around the perimeter of the Homebase site. This is because Homebase vacated their store at the end of April, and the hoarding is being installed to secure the site.
It’s important to note that construction has not yet commenced as we continue to plan for the delivery of the development. We’ll be in touch with the community to let you know before any construction begins.
We look forward to meeting many of you in the near future and if you have any questions and would like to speak with us in the meantime, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us.
