Newcombe House, Notting Hill Gate

This website provides information for the local community on the regeneration of the Newcombe House site, now known as Notting Hill Place.

Originally set up as part of a wide-ranging pre-application consultation programme you can find background information on the approved planning application (January 2024), proposed minor amendments to the application (currently under consideration by the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea) and progress updates on the demolition and construction works which are ongoing and being undertaken by Midgard.

Notting Hill Place – the neighbourhood workplace

Designed by leading architects Squire & Partners, joint partners Beltane and Angelo Gordon are bringing forward One Notting Hill Place, a new building on the high street frontage of Notting Hill Gate, while Two Notting Hill Place will be a new building extending along the frontage of Kensington Church Street.

Combined, 170,000 sq. ft of lighter, healthier workspace across the two new buildings will be provided above a leafy square and a row of independent shops and cafes. At the junction with Kensington Place and Kensington Church Street, Two Notting Hill Place will also include a small number of affordable homes and a new NHS medical centre.

If you are interested in the office and retail space on offer, please visit the Notting Hill Place website where you will find the contact details for the commercial agents.

The very latest evolution in Notting Hill Place has been the acquisition of Astley House, which is also on Notting Hill Gate, just to the west of the junction with Kensington Church Street. Becoming Three Notting Hill Place, this property will be refurbished and improved. Pre-application community consultation is currently underway, and you can find out more by visiting the dedicated consultation website.

Involving the local community

Beltane and Angelo Gordon carried out extensive pre-application dialogue on their emerging proposals at One and Two Notting Hill Place and positively invited feedback from the local community to help inform the final content of the planning application.

If you are interested in the planning history of Notting Hill Place and the extensive pre-application consultation which was undertaken, we have made relevant documents available for download.

Following the granting of planning permission in 2024, engagement with neighbours and the wider community has continued. Regular updates are provided by Midgard via project newsletters and key organisations representing the local community have participated in a Liaison Group.

We are particularly keen to pick up on any issues of concern from neighbours relating to the construction work which is taking place. We have provided contact details so you can get in touch at any time. We will respond as soon as possible.
