Manor House Area Action Plan
The Council is in the early stages of preparing a draft Area Action Plan for Manor House.
Manor House is a local centre in the north-west corner of the Borough; it has Manor House tube station at its centre and provides the gateway to the Woodberry Down Estate and to Finsbury Park.
Woodberry Down is a post-war estate comprising 1980 residential units which is being redeveloped to provide 4644 residential units bringing an additional 2664 homes to the borough.
The draft Area Action Plan (or ‘Masterplan’ as it will be known) for Manor House is required in order to maximise the regeneration opportunities that redevelopment of the Woodberry Down Estate will bring to the area, and to support the emerging Core Strategy policy to develop Manor House as a local centre.

The objectives of the Masterplan are:
- creating a strong and distinctive neighbourhood hub around Manor House Station
- improving the environment
- promoting mixed employment, retail and residential uses
- improving access and addressing barriers to movement to and within the area
- integrating Finsbury Park into Manor House
- promoting sustainable transport, walking, cycling bus and tube services
Community Engagement Events
Community engagement events were held on the 9th and 11th February 2010 at the Woodberry Down Community Primary School and the Stoke Newington West Reservoir Centre.
These events provided the community with the opportunity to express their views about the key issues and identify opportunities to improve the area which should be considered in the preparation of the draft Masterplan
