Social housing residents on a London estate feel they are being “gagged” in discussions about the future of the place where they live, as the council prepares one of the capital’s controversial “infill” plans, which cover green spaces with homes.

Residents on the Dodson and Amigo estate in Elephant and Castle say they have been asked to sign documents promising not to speak to other residents or journalists, in exchange for taking part in meetings about new homes planned for their estates.

They showed the Guardian a document that also warned they could not campaign against the new homes if they were part of the discussions.

The council, however, argues that the documents only mean residents need permission to speak, in order to keep the discussions fair and civil.

The row is one of many heated debates on council estates across London over “infill housing” – where councils build new homes on existing estates.

The housing crisis in London is acute. About 8% of households are overcrowded, with 35% of children in social housing living in overcrowded conditions.

Southwark alone has more than 16,000 people on its social housing waiting list and aims to build 11,000 homes for social rent by 2043. The picture is similar in every borough, with thousands of families and individuals desperate to find safe and affordable places to live.

Meanwhile councils lose housing every year under right to buy policies, putting them in an impossible position. Private developers are failing to build enough social or affordable homes even when building on large sites once owned by councils.

Building on land they already own is a vital solution for councils looking for space for new homes. To this end officers have scoured estates looking for “unused” patches of land, old garages, car parks – and, to the distress of residents – green spaces, play areas and communal gardens.

This “infill” housing has been heralded as a tool in getting families out of bed and breakfasts and into safe homes.

The women, families and community leaders in some of the poorest parts of the capital who resist it have sometimes been labelled Nimbys.

But those living in flats without gardens in dense and polluted corners of London say it is wrong to take precious communal green spaces away.

Pendennis House, Pepys Estate by d0gwalker Via Flickr: Pepys Estate is a social housing estate in Deptford, south east London. It consists of several four-storey blocks, 10 eight-storey blocks (such as Pendennis House seen here), and three 26-storey tower blocks. The estate was officially opened in 1966. Although brick-built, the concrete details and geometric forms of the building have a distinctly brutalist style. I'm not happy with this shot - although I like the composition, something went wrong with the focus and I made the mistake of not checking before I'd left the scene. If I return here I'll definitely want to re-take it!
