Dickens Yard

Dickens YardThe go-ahead from the Mayor for redevelopment of Dickens Yard, behind the Town Hall, was issued in October 2009. The decision was held up for some months over issues relating to on-site renewable energy generation but these have been resolved. Ealing Council have now reached agreement with St George about the terms of the legal agreement, including the sum of money they would receive for the site as well as the section 106 funding, and planning permission was granted in late November 2009. Demolition of “the Village” temporary office has been completed and the Annex building is currently being demolished. The stables block is due to be incorporated into the new development initially as a sales office. Save Ealing’s Centre, to which the society is affiliated, is currently considering mounting a legal challenge against the Council for granting planning permission.
