The Ashenden Block of the Heygate Estate, Elephant and Castle, Walworth, South London

---

The Heygate Estate at Elephant and Castle in South London was completed in 1974. Over time it gained a reputation for dilapidation, crime and poverty and the tenants have now been rehoused prior to demolition of the flats and redevelopment of the area as part of the £1. 5 billion redevelopment of the whole of Elephant and Castle.
