The redevelopment of the Blenheim Centre in Penge, brought forward in a joint venture between Hadley Property Group and Clarion Housing Group, will deliver 228 new homes at 100% social rent, subject to approval of a Section 73 application.
Originally approved in March 2024 for up to 230 homes, including 35% affordable housing, Hadley and Clarion identified an opportunity to significantly increase affordable housing provision. Following close collaboration with the Greater London Authority, additional grant funding has now been secured to enable the scheme to be delivered at 100% social rent.

This revised proposal represents a significant opportunity to address local housing need, providing genuinely affordable homes that will offer meaningful relief to Bromley Council’s housing waiting list, alongside new town-centre uses and improved public realm in the heart of Penge.
The site sits at the centre of Penge High Street and is currently home to the Blenheim Shopping Centre. The residential-led, mixed-use scheme will deliver new community and retail space, introduce green public realm and play space.
In addition to new homes, the proposals include flexible ground-floor space, new pedestrian routes through the site, improvements to Arpley and Empire Squares, and significant greening.
Subject to approval of the Section 73 application, construction is anticipated to commence in late 2026. The scheme reflects the value of cross-sector collaboration in responding to local and London-wide housing need, while delivering high-quality homes and community spaces for Penge.
