Project summary

Edit project overview to modify the project summary.

The Ram Brewery Site is located in Wandsworth Town Centre and comprises the former Youngs Brewery which for over 150 years has been a familiar local landmark for both Wandsworth residents and visitors. The site is divided by the River Wandle which runs south to north and joins the River Thames 500m to the north.

The scheme proposes opening up the site to the public for the first time in its history and provides 1.02ha of high quality public realm, including two public open squares, each framed by the refurbished listed brewery buildings and riverside walkways. In addition, the development will provide 1,036 residential units in the form of two towers and space for a mix of uses including office, retail, leisure units and a microbrewery.
