Walter Tull House is part of the council’s award-winning housebuilding programme to deliver 3,000 council homes by 2031, with more than 2,000 already started or completed.  The 131 new homes are a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom flats, with 17 fully wheelchair accessible.  All feature a private balcony or access to a communal garden.   

Tottenham Executive Director, Donna-Maria Cullen, said:

“The Club’s involvement in today’s event is extremely important for two reasons. We are passionate about Tottenham and this area’s continued regeneration - Walter Tull House is an example of the new, high-quality homes coming to the area and benefitting local residents.

“This particular development takes on extra significance for us with its name inspired by one of the most important and influential figures in our Club’s history. We are extremely proud that Walter made history at Tottenham Hotspur, becoming the English Football League’s first black outfield player.

“His legacy has lived on beyond his achievements on the football pitch and the battlefield – blazing a trail for future generations of black footballers and Army Officers that have followed in his footsteps to the present day. The opening of Walter Tull House further cements his legacy within our local community.”
