THE B IGGER P ICTURE — TR INITY WOOLWICH
Trinity Walk is the first phase of the Trinity Woolwich regeneration scheme which, alongside Trinity Rise (phase 2) and Trinity Park (phase 3), will see 1,500 new, high-quality, mix tenure homes built over the next 12 years.
As part of the Woolwich Estates Renewal Programme, the Trinity developments will play a key role in enhancing communities and rejuvenating the area to make the borough an even better place to live.
Our vision for this project is to provide a high-quality development which will create a strong sense of place and belonging. Keeping community at its heart, Trinity Woolwich will not only build new quality homes, it will become a place where people choose to love, live and grow.

EXPLORE THE PAST
The rich history of Woolwich is woven into the very fabric of London’s dynamic character and worldwide attraction. Originally named after its prime position as a well-known trader of wool, Woolwich has continued to be an important part of the London story.
In 1512 Henry VIII chose Woolwich as the site for his flagship Royal Dockyard, which was to become a defining factor in its history. Woolwich served an important role in military support with the establishment of the Royal Arsenal and laboratory, which played a key part in both World Wars by manufacturing ammunition and goods for civilians.
As well as the important economic development provided by its military capabilities, Woolwich went through a period of extensive growth during the 19th Century with the opening of various factories and the advance of the South Eastern Railway line. The famous Woolwich ferry started in 1889, provided a free service connecting North and South – a service that is still free today!
Community has always been at the heart of Woolwich, and in 1868 the Royal Arsenal Co-Operative Society came into being. This important community movement became one of the biggest consumer co-operatives in the country and home to various shops, department stores and areas of entrepreneurship.
Steeped in a rich history of growth and innovation, Woolwich is also the birth place of one of the country’s best loved football teams. In 1886 a group of workers at the Royal Arsenal formed a football team called Dial Square. Winning their first game 6-0, the team went from strength to strength and became an official club. They soon changed their name to Royal Arsenal and at the turn of the century relocated to Highbury – becoming the Arsenal football club we know today. If you look closely, you will still see their connection to Woolwich – a cannon on their official crest!

It is this story of an innovative, close knitted community interwoven with the dynamism of London that makes Woolwich a truly remarkable place and a town that is sure to continue to develop in the future.

LIVE IN THE PRESENT
Woolwich has been at the heart of some of the most important aspects in London’s growth and development, and today it continues to be a site of innovation and change as a key focus of regeneration and vital investment as part of the Thames Gateway regeneration scheme.
In 2009 the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) opened Woolwich Arsenal Station, connecting Woolwich to London City Airport and Central London. This was followed by the unveiling of a new centre in 2011, which has seen the development of new housing, retail space, a business centre, an expanded library and gallery, a range of Royal Borough of Greenwich services and the creation of beautiful landscaped squares.
As well as investment in the local area, the impressive transport links in Woolwich ensure you are connected to arguably the most dynamic and exciting city on earth – London. The bustling business district, Canary Wharf, is a train ride away, while the world famous West End and London’s historic attractions, its international shops and bars, can be reached in a matter of minutes. Stroll along the Southbank, discover London’s wealth of free museums and art galleries, dine at some of the best restaurants the country has to offer or spend a day exploring world famous markets - London is home to it all.
With the buzz of London’s unique culture and its wealth of opportunities nearby, Woolwich is perfectly placed to offer the best of both worlds. Recent regeneration initiatives have given Woolwich a new lease of life; building upon its rich history as a town that prides itself on its strong community, Woolwich offers a community to love, live and grow.

PLAN FOR THE FUTURE
Recent regeneration initiatives and the arrival of Crossrail usher in a new phase in the history of Woolwich. The last few years have seen an explosion of developments in Woolwich, including residential, office spaces, open spaces and amenities, and with the opening of Crossrail in 2018 providing faster, better transport to the centre of London, this is a trend that is set to continue. As well as developments within Woolwich itself, the Royal Wharf development nearby has plans to become a new business centre to match Canary Wharf. The largest development of its kind in the UK, the area is set to generate significant growth and business opportunities for Woolwich and London.
With all this investment, Woolwich is fully prepared to realise its future potential. Changes to the surrounding area and new links to the centre of London will be deciding factors in defining Woolwich as the new ‘place to be’.
The development at Trinity Walk is set to become a central feature of this new future– a place with community at its core, with a forward looking and dynamic outlook and links to all that London has to offer.

A VIS ION FROM THE ARCHITECT
This project represents the best of combining modern living with a traditional setting - contemporary homes designed for 21st Century living arranged in the historic surroundings of Woolwich. New terraced houses, which respond to and respect the best of their Victorian neighbours, provide generous family accommodation; whilst apartments with balconies have access to views of a new, central, linear park and longer vistas towards the River Thames. Undulating and characterful, tree-lined streets will connect the Trinity Walk neighbourhood to the heart of Woolwich centre, providing a unique opportunity to enjoy both the local ambience and the wider city amenities. WHAT HAS INSP IRED THIS PROJECT?
At Trinity Woolwich, we were inspired by the locations rich military history and the existing London stock brick walls which surrounded the former barracks, parade ground and stable blocks on the site. New homes are built in complimentary silver-yellow bricks and their ‘turreted shape’ echoes the historic events which took place in the area. Behind the new streets, homes look onto quieter courtyards and walled gardens where the building materials contrast in colour and texture. Here, resident gardens will be planted with trees and shrubs, providing a sheltered backdrop to outdoor private and shared spaces.

CHOOSING AND RESERVING
Once you have chosen your new Lovell home from those available, you may reserve it with an initial reservation deposit. This forms part of the total purchase price.
KEEP ING THINGS MOVING
Your initial deposit will hold the property in your name at the stated price for an agreed period, allowing your solicitor to deal with the legal formalities. Immediately after reserving your new home, you should do two things. Firstly, advise your solicitor and let us know of his/her name and address so we can forward contract documents. Secondly, make arrangements to obtain a mortgage if required – you may wish to deal with this yourself or make use of our facilities. We are able to put you in contact with independent mortgage advisors who will be pleased to help you.
EXCHANGING CONTRACTS
The legal formalities and your mortgage applications are processed during the reservation period. As soon as your solicitor is satisfied with the result of his/her enquiries, and your building society has sent you a formal offer of mortgage, you will be in a position to make a binding commitment to purchase, i.e. to exchange contracts. At this point, your solicitor will ask you to pay a further deposit. This is sent to our solicitor, together with a contract signed by you. Where applicable, your solicitor should ensure that the sale of your existing property is tied in with the purchase of your new Lovell home.
MOVING IN
Under the terms of the contract, a set period is allowed after the property is ready for occupation to enable financial completion to take place. Your mortgage repayments normally start one month after your purchase is completed. When your property is complete we will notify your solicitor, who will ask you to pay any outstanding portion of the purchase price and request the mortgage funds from your building society. This money is forwarded to our solicitors and they will complete the deed transferring the property to your name. On receipt of the money, we will authorise our on-site sales staff to hand you the keys to your new home. Of course, our sales team will be in close contact with you throughout this final period to make sure all goes smoothly.
ONE OR TWO ADDIT IONAL POINTS
We will arrange for the meters to be read on the day of your legal completion. Upon financial completion, the keys will be handed over to you by a member of our sales/site staff and you will be asked to sign a handover certificate and key receipt form. Finally, please remember that our aim is to ensure a trouble-free purchase and our sales team are always happy to answer your queries or assist you.
