Fantastic news indeed that the Stockwell Hall of Fame scheme in Stockwell has been included in the Civic Trust Award’s list of Regional Finalists. The project is located in a built up area of South West London and used by both artists and the wider public, including groups of local school children! The scheme is one of several contributing to regeneration in the area.
“I objected to all of this, I just don’t like these people spraying stuff making a mess outside my flat. It’s just not what people want! But this is amazing! I can’t believe it. Its just so fun and the kids look like they love it. Well done!”
The Stockwell Hall of Fame began life as the brutalist, sunken play area for the local Stockwell Park housing estate, built in the 1950s along with most of the estate. The large expanses of concrete wall were not only good for kicking a ball against, but also proved popular amongst the local graffiti crowd. Read more about our regeneration of the scheme here. Our team have really enjoyed working with SW9Housing Group, Mace, Network Homes and a special thanks to Boyd Hill for all his hands on help!
