Welcome to the consultation website for Pudding Mill Lane

On this website, you can learn more about our plans for Pudding Mill Lane, view feedback from our previous public consultation events, and find key information on the planning applications for Phases 1 and 2A.

Pudding Mill Lane LLP, a partnership between the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) and Vistry, is continuing to bring forward plans for the site.

Our vision is for a mixed-use neighbourhood within Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, combining new high-quality homes, community facilities, workspaces, amenities and welcoming public spaces to foster an inclusive and well-connected community with spaces that support everyday life.

The wider Pudding Mill Lane masterplan was granted Outline Planning Permission in 2023, providing the framework for the development to come forward through a series of Reserved Matters Applications.

Site context

Pudding Mill Lane has a well-established and evolving planning history, closely tied to the wider regeneration of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

In 2023, an Outline Planning Permission for Pudding Mill Lane was brought forward by the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) and approved under planning reference 21/00574/OUT. Future development phases are being brought forward through Reserved Matters Applications in line with this.

Building on the site’s existing masterplan consent for a mixed-use neighbourhood, the Reserved Matters Applications for Phases 1 and 2A provide further detail on the locations, uses and design of individual buildings within the first stages of development.

While awaiting permanent redevelopment, the site has been actively used for interim and temporary functions that contribute to the vibrancy and economic vitality of the area. These have included:

  • Snoozebox: A temporary container hotel offering short-term stays, with permission to operate on-site until summer 2025.
  • ABBA Arena: A 3,000-capacity venue for ABBA Voyage shows.
  • Park Depot: A maintenance hub for Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, approved to remain until 2027, with relocation plans underway.

These interim activities have played a key role in activating the site while long-term development proposals are brought forward.

The site is currently activated by a number of meanwhile uses including the highly popular ABBA Voyage!

Latest project update

We are pleased to confirm that Phase 1 received a resolution to grant approval at the Newham Strategic Development Committee in April 2026, an important milestone for the wider masterplan.

Phase 1 will deliver approximately 350 homes, of which 79% will be affordable, alongside City Mills River Park, a new nursery and health centre, local amenities and new public spaces.

The next steps will include progressing the detailed design and technical work ahead of the anticipated start of construction.

We have also submitted a Reserved Matters Application for Phase 2A to the London Borough of Newham.

The Phase 2A Reserved Matters Application has been submitted to the London Borough of Newham.

You can view the planning application on the Newham Planning Portal by searching 26/01785/REM

Phase 2A will bring 266 new homes to the area, just a short walk from Pudding Mill Lane DLR station. It will also start to bring the vision for the wider neighbourhood to life, with:

  • The first elements of a new local centre, creating a focus for the community
  • New public spaces for people to enjoy
  • Better walking and cycling connections through the area
  • A new gateway to the wider development and the emerging Pudding Mill Square

The Phase 2A application provides further detail on this part of the masterplan and how it will contribute to the new neighbourhood.

Together, these changes will help create a more connected, welcoming and vibrant neighbourhood around Pudding Mill Lane.

We will continue to keep residents informed as the masterplan progresses and further information becomes available.

What is a Reserved Matters Application? Or 'RMA'?

A Reserved Matters Application (RMA) follows a successful Outline Planning Permission. It focuses on the finer details of the development that the Outline Planning Permission does not include, such as detailed designs of building layouts, materials used throughout buildings, and landscaping.

These details are then submitted for approval to the Local Planning Authority before construction can begin.

Our proposals

The vision for Pudding Mill Lane is to create a vibrant, inclusive and sustainable new neighbourhood that meets the needs of existing and future communities.

In line with the Pudding Mill Lane masterplan, the vision for the whole site will see the delivery of:

  • Around 1,000 new homes in a range of types, sizes and tenures, with at least 45% affordable housing.
  • Approximately 30,000 sqm of new commercial space, attracting a range of businesses.
  • New green and public spaces across the site featuring high-quality landscaping to support biodiversity, climate resilience and wellbeing.
  • New retail units throughout the development, providing a range of useful shops and services for local people.
  • Delivery of a healthy, safe and attractive area of the city, with buildings and landscapes people enjoy living in and visiting.
  • New community workspaces and residential amenities, including a new nursery and health centre.
  • New connections across the site and welcoming streets that prioritise active travel, with attractive routes for walking and cycling.
  • A sustainable development that seeks to minimise embodied carbon, reduce energy use and be climate resilient.

Our engagement so far

Our public consultation events

We held two stages of public consultation, each delivered across two days, and directly contacted local groups and key community stakeholders. These activities gave residents, businesses and stakeholders multiple opportunities to learn about the plans and share their views.

Across this engagement, people highlighted key priorities such as the need for well‑designed homes – including affordable options – alongside useful community facilities and welcoming public spaces. Many also emphasised the importance of safe walking and cycling routes, green areas, and places for play and social activity.

Participants also raised a range of considerations, including building heights, environmental quality, and how the development can best reflect local character and benefit existing communities.

Overall, the engagement showed strong interest in shaping a balanced, people‑focused neighbourhood and the importance of continued communication as plans evolve.

Our workshop events

As part of the development of Pudding Mill Lane, a series of community workshops took place between June and November 2025 to ensure that local voices shape how this new neighbourhood evolves. These sessions were delivered in partnership with LLDC Elevate Voice, the Community Anchors Network (CAN), and Bobby Moore Academy, building on the legacy of inclusive and community-led planning in and around the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

Across the workshops, key themes emerged around safety, lighting, and visibility, ensuring spaces feel welcoming; playful, flexible areas for young people; and celebrating Stratford and Newham’s local culture through art and storytelling. Participants also highlighted the importance of clear wayfinding, accessible routes, and creating inclusive, comfortable spaces with greenery and shared seating. These insights will help guide development that reflects the community’s needs, values, and creativity.
