Welcome to The Hill Group’s proposals for College Green
Welcome to the proposals for College Green
Here you can find details of the redevelopment of College of North West London’s (CNWL) Willesden Campus at Denzil Road, Dudden Hill Lane, London NW10 2XD, to be known as College Green.
The regeneration of this site, and the College’s Wembley Park campus, enables the CNWL to move into a new and fit-for-purpose home further up Olympic Way in Wembley. It also presents a unique opportunity to deliver a new high-quality development here in Dollis Hill, delivering much needed new homes, new commercial spaces and a new community space for the area.
Our plans have an ambitious landscaping masterplan at its heart which delivers new routes through and across the site. New public streets, squares and green spaces will allow new and existing residents to meet, interact and enjoy these areas, helping to build a cohesive new neighbourhood for the area.
This will replace the tired and inefficient college buildings with a new development of high-quality buildings, public streets, squares, and parks, to provide a vibrant neighbourhood for Neasden.
An initial public consultation was held in October 2022 where community groups and residents attended an in-person event of the plans as they existed at the time. A second round of consultation was undertaken in November 2023 to present the updated proposals and seek feedback from the local community.
Following this round of consultation, we reflected on all feedback received before submitting the planning application to Brent Council in July 2024.
Autumn 2024 update
Hill Group and the College of North West London are pleased to confirm that they have now submitted two planning applications to Brent Council seeking planning permission for the residential-led regeneration of their Dollis Hill/Willesden Green and Wembley Park campuses.
You can find out more about the submitted proposals for the Dollis Hill site using the reference: 24/1804 and the Wembley site using the reference: 24/1841 by going to Brent Council’s website. If consented the redevelopment of these sites will help to fund the construction of the College’s new campus in Wembley, which has already secured planning permission.
We would like to thank you for your participation and feedback provided during the consultation period, if you have any queries, please get in touch with the project team on haveyoursay@consultationonline.co.uk or contact us on the freephone line, 020 3398 1590, and a member of the team will call you back.
