Where we draw in North Lambeth

Which Lambeth neighbourhoods does this cover?

This page covers the northern part of the borough — Waterloo, Vauxhall, Kennington and Oval and the streets around them. The stock here is largely Georgian terraces, mansion blocks and riverside new-build, and we prepare drawings across every one of those types for Lambeth Council.

The Kennington and Vauxhall conservation areas and the Nine Elms / Vauxhall opportunity area both apply in the north, so period houses and tall-building contexts sit side by side and each needs a different design approach. Whichever route your address falls under, we confirm it free at the measured survey and design to match the northern Lambeth streetscape — from period rear and side-return extensions to rear-dormer and mansard loft conversions.
