- Comment: We'd need to see proof that this estate meets WP:NBUILDING. I am sure theres plenty of commentaries and studies and news articles? Qcne (talk) 14:32, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Wellington Mills is a brutalist housing estate in Lambeth, comprised of 138 flats of mixed tenure. The estate sits next to Morley College, the Lincoln Memorial Tower and near the Imperial War Museum on a triangle between Westminster Bridge Road and Kennington Road. It was built by the Greater London Council between 1970 and 1976 as a Housing cooperative and today is managed jointly with Lambeth council. Architect Barbara Bienias designed the estate, and the first residents moved into the estate in December 1975.
The site of Wellington Mills was once a female orphanage, before being developed into a mill producing sandpaper and other abrasives for John Oakey & Sons.
The estate celebrated its 30 year anniversary in 2006 with an exhibition of plans, drawings and oral history at Morley College Gallery.[1]
