Planned Rainham Developments as of 2018
This is purely indicative, kindly produced by Maggie Francis
These seem to be the main development areas currently in the planning system (or newly completed). Doesn’t include the Methodist Church (9 flats i think) or Arcola Factory site on Station Road (6), nor the new conversion of Paynes on the corner of Solomon Road or other odd small bits and pieces!
Make scary viewing!
