Weybridge

Templemere is an exceptional example of a number of housing estates completed by Span Development Limited, designed by acclaimed architect Eric Lyons. Built in 1963 as part of the British Modern Movement in architecture it was awarded a coveted Civic Trust award the following year for ‘making an outstanding contribution to the local scene’. Templemere achieved Conservation Area Status in 2017 because of its special architectural and historic interest. Landscaping was expertly envisioned and implemented by Preben Jacobsen who at the time with Lyons was moving landscaping out of a rigid Victorian phase into something more fluid and open with vistas to specific trees all scaled proportionately. Cedar of Lebanons, Scots Pines and Californian Redwoods are an impressive scale which the layout of properties embraces with clear vistas and viewpoints. At the back of the estate is a four acre woodland and Templemere’s share of The Broadwater Lake. The Woodland drops sharply down to a flat area of grass on the water’s edge. Monthly community days are spent managing the woodland for residents and wildlife.
