Heygate Estate
Former housing estate in London
Heygate Estate
The Heygate Estate was a large housing estate in Walworth, Southwark, South London, comprising 1,214 homes, designed by architects Tim Tinker and Roger Westman. The estate was demolished between 2011 and 2014 as part of the urban regeneration of the Elephant & Castle area. Home to more than 3,000 people, it was situated adjacent to Walworth Road and New Kent Road, and immediately east of the Elephant & Castle road intersection. The estate was used extensively as a filming location, due in part to its brutalist architecture. The clearance of the site and its sale to Lendlease for redevelopment was highly controversial.
