Context & Site History
The Stansfeld Residence site in Beckton, within the London Borough of Newham, sits at a pivotal point in East London’s urban transformation. Just a short distance from London City Airport and well connected via the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) and local bus routes, the site offers direct links to Canary Wharf, the City, and major European destinations. Once home to a 36-horse livery stable and a small sports and social club, the land had long stood vacant, an underused remnant of the area’s industrial past now ready for reinvention.
Its proximity to major transport and commercial hubs makes it an ideal setting for a residential and mixed-use regeneration that supports both London’s housing need and the lifestyle of a new urban generation, professionals who live, work, and travel seamlessly between global cities.
