Programme for Slum Clearance
Blechynden Street Area/Lancaster Road (Vest) Area.
Negotiations have taken place between the Council and the London
County Council in regard to the proposal to redevelop an area known
as the "Blechynden Street area." The allocation of responsibility
between the two authorities has been agreed as follows:-
To be developed by the London County Council:
Blechynden Street area north-west of railway -
Gross area in acres 8.30
To be developed by the Council:
Blechynden Street area south-east of railway -
Gross area in acres 11.40
It will be appreciated that by no means all the properties
in this area are suitable for action under "slum clearance," and the
extent to which action under Part III of the Housing Act, 1957, can
be taken will depend on the results of a survey of individual properties.
In connection with that part of the Blechynden Street area
allocated to the County Council, Compulsory Purchase Orders have been
made during the year by that Council in respect of the following
premises:-
1-3 (cons.) Bramley Mews
43-49 (odd) and 53-59 (odd) Bramley Road
33-67 (odd), 73-81 (odd) and 56-78 (even) Blechynden Street
1-17 (odd), 8, 10 and 16 East Mews Road
1-25 (odd) Lockton Street
1-15 (odd), 2-14 (even) Martin Street
36-44 (cons.) Mersey Street
33-41 (odd) Oldham Road
35-43 (odd) Silchester Road
21-33 (odd) and 2-30 (even) Silchester Terrace

dealt with by the Kensington Council, it was decided that it should
be increased by the addition of 4.83 acres containing the following
properties:-
