Now Launched!
Welcome to Dagenham Green, an inspiring new vision for the future of this vibrant and diverse East London community.
Imagine a place with everything you need: gardens, a park, shops, services, workspaces and cafés. That’s Dagenham Green, a whole community for you to enjoy. A collection of studios, 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments – all with their own outdoor space.
Discover Dagenham Green
Part of an ambitious masterplan to regenerate the 45-acre site that once housed the Ford Motor Company’s Stamping and Tooling Operations, this first phase of Dagenham Green sets the benchmark for what will follow.
A new secondary school has been planned, along with a faith space and a community hub to serve local residents. Not only that, but 4,000 sqm of flexible workspace will be provided to attract local entrepreneurs and pioneers.
Dagenham Green will be an exciting new neighbourhood people will be proud to call their own, building on the heritage of this
enterprising area.
Village Community, City Convenience
With a range of amenities and green spaces on the doorstep, Dagenham Green has been designed to feel like a London ‘village’, home to a convenience store, local shops and services, with everything you need for day-to-day living within easy reach.
A new GP surgery and pharmacy is planned so you can easily look after your health. Cafés and restaurants just moments from home mean more spontaneous nights out or catch-ups with friends, while the Market Square will host a diverse range of events and entertainment – the ideal opportunity to discover something new and
meet fellow residents.
A rich history
Running throughout the development, on show for all who walk or cycle through it, artworks, play areas and planting act as permanent reminders the site’s history.
No celebration of Dagenham’s past would be complete without mention of the Ford Motor Company, which selected the riverside location for the 500-acre motor plant, transferring all work in 1931. It was Europe’s largest car plant, it defined Dagenham throughout the 20th century as a centre for industry and manufacturing.
The site on which Dagenham Green now stands has its own remarkable heritage: once home to the Ford Stamping and Tooling Plant, it was the setting for the Ford sewing machinists’ strike, when a group of women took on the establishment to protest against unequal pay. Directly linked to the successful Equal Pay Act of 1970, it was a milestone in the United Kingdom’s history.
Relax, Revive, Re-energise
The five acre park, right at the centre, is beautifully landscaped with groves of trees, wildflower meadows, play areas and landscaped terraces, where you can exercise, play, socialise or simply relax in the great outdoors.
To the south of this incredible green space, next to Market Square, there are tranquil wetlands, ponds and reedbeds, inspired by how the area looked centuries ago. Superbly detailed and maintained, these provide a wonderful backdrop for living, constantly changing throughout the seasons.
Across Dagenham Green, the sheer variety of planted areas, green gardens and trees increases biodiversity, attracting all kinds of colourful birds, bees, insects and more. There are even plans in place for a potential wildlife corridor to the south of the development, providing a safe passage for wildlife between Goresbrook Park and Beam Parklands.
Local Leisure
Shoppers have a world of temptation around them: Lakeside Shopping Centre, just 12 minutes away, and the popular Bluewater, 28 minutes away, both combine retail therapy with family entertainment and eating out. Westfield Staratford, home to more than 300 retailers, is a 22 minute trip by train from Dagenham Dock station – a little further and you’re in central London, the ultimate destination for shopping and fine dining.
Closer to home, there are excellent supermarkets and local shopping centres for your day-to-day needs, including Merrielands Retail Park and the nearby ASDA Superstore – and of course, the shops and services right on your doorstep at Dagenham Green.
