Map of Winstanley Estate, Battersea

The Winstanley and York Road Estate comprises two large estates of predominantly public housing apartments in Battersea, London, adjacent to Clapham Junction railway station, although some have since passed into private ownership.[1]

Due to their proximity to one another, the Winstanley and York Road estates have historically been grouped together and share facilities, including York Gardens and transport links at Clapham Junction. According to official data, there are a total of 1419 homes on the estates, with approximately 5200 residents.[2][3] The adjacency of a built-up residential area to one of the busiest stations in Europe is almost unique and has profoundly influenced various factors of the district. The locality has had numerous well-known residents over the years, including: John Burns, Alan Johnson and Levi Roots. However, the estates are particularly well known within London musically (amongst other claims to fame), for being the founding location of the So Solid Crew, a UK garage group that had mainstream success and did much to popularise succeeding genres of UK "urban" music.[4] Work has begun for a planned regeneration scheme (subject to a final review from the Mayor of London), taking place on a timeline of December 2018 until 2030.[5][6]
