Haycroft Mews

A sensitive development providing new homes and attractive green spaces for families in Kingston

Haycroft Mews will be a sensitive new development on the currently disused site of the former Cap in Hand public house and its associated car park.

The proposals will see the current site transformed into an attractive new development providing up to 40 new homes, including affordable housing and 30% purpose-built terraced houses for families, as well as flexible commercial floorspace.

Alongside this, the landscape focused design approach will include outdoor community facilities, the creation of a green corridor with new tree and hedge planting, new public realm and a community garden and eco garden.

Ahead of submitting a planning application to the Royal Borough of Kingston, we are committed to engaging with the local community. This public consultation website outlines our plans for Haycroft Mews and provides you with the opportunity to submit your feedback and ask any questions you may have.

We held a series of in person and online consultations from the week commencing Monday 27th February to allow residents and stakeholders the opportunity to have their say, learn more about the proposals and hear from the project team.

You can view the consultation boards displayed at the exhibition below.

The current site

An opportunity to redevelop a disused brownfield site

The site comprises the now disused Cap in Hand public house to the east and its associated car park to the west. Closed in 2016, the Cap in Hand building has now sat empty for 7 years.

The surrounding area is predominantly residential, although Hook Road is a local centre which contains a broad range of commercial uses. The site is bounded by the A309 slip road to the south and Hook Road to the east. To the southeast is the Hook Junction roundabout where these two roads meet. A row of residential gardens connected to houses on Haycroft Road lie to the north, with an open green space to the west.
