Welcome

Welcome to National Grid's website for its plans to regenerate the Northfleet West Sub Station site, near Swanscombe in Kent. The property arm of National Grid has set up this site to provide information on our proposals, to keep you informed of our progress as the plans move through the planning process, to answer your questions and to invite your comments.

The plans are for a mixed-use sustainable community with up to 1,500 new homes.

Revised Masterplan Submitted

A revised masterplan was submitted to Dartford Borough Council in June of this year. The key components of the proposals remain unchanged but the layout has been altered to move the proposed primary school which is now adjacent to the town square at the centre of the development and closer to the Fastrack stop. These changes were made in response to feedback received during Dartford Borough Council’s statutory consultation on the planning application.
