Invest Bromley: GlaxoSmithKline site developers optimistic for success

GlaxoSmithKline site developers optimistic for success

Thu 30th June 2011, 1:01 pm

Developers which plan to regenerate the former GlaxoSmithKline site in Beckenham have explained the reasons they think the site will be a success.




Altessen, a joint venture company formed of Essential Land and Altyon, recently bought Langley Court, the former home of the GlaxoSmithKline research and development facility.

It is currently consulting the local community about its proposals to develop the site, which could include housing, offices, village shops and community facilities.

Simon Holley, chairman of Altyon said: “Langley Court provided an opportunity to acquire a large site in a desirable part of London, which can be redeveloped into a vibrant new neighbourhood.

Martin Bellinger, partner at Essential Land said: “I grew up in Bromley so I know the area well. I was also involved in the development of neighbouring Langley Park and Langley Waterside.

“The schools were and still are very good and for an area so close to Central London it is extremely green.

“You can get a train to Victoria in 22 minutes or take a tram to Croydon. It is an area that is as close to the hustle and bustle of London as it is from relaxing woodlands. Central London and the M25 are both around 10 miles away.”
