  • Tikehau Capital Acquires the Walnuts Shopping Centre in Orpington, United Kingdom
    PRESS RELEASE Tikehau Capital acquires The Walnuts Shopping Centre in Orpington, United Kingdom London, 01 November 2019 – Tikehau Capital, the alternative asset management and investment group, announces the acquisition for its clients of The Walnuts Shopping Centre in Orpington, through its Real Estate Value-Added fund which was launched in 2018. The Walnuts provides a site totaling over 22,500 sqm, which includes a shopping centre of c. 13,700 sqm with 58 stores, alongside an ODEON cinema and an 83-room Premier-Inn hotel. The asset is located in the heart of Orpington, 13 miles South East from Central London, on the South Eastern Main Line and connected to a range of Central London stations. The London Borough of Bromley’s strategy to revitalise Orpington’s town centre and improve its facilities means there is a potential for redevelopment to enhance this asset. Tikehau Capital's second Real Estate acquisition in the UK This is Tikehau Capital’s Real Estate Value-Added fund’s second acquisition in the United Kingdom following the acquisition of the Nicholsons shopping centre in Maidenhead earlier this year. It is the fund’s sixth investment following a sale & lease back operation, the acquisition of a mixed-use portfolio in Brussels, two hotels located in central Paris, and the partnership with Bouygues Immobilier for the Charenton-Bercy redevelopment project in the Greater Paris area. The pan-European Real Estate Value-Added fund, which was launched in 2018, invests across all Real Estate asset classes. Tikehau Capital’s Head of Real Estate Frédéric Jariel said: “This second Real Estate deal in the United Kingdom demonstrates Tikehau Capital's strategy to strengthen the development of its activities in the country.

  • A British Summer Time Walk
    Bromley Pub Walks A British Summer Time Walk Chislehurst to Petts Wood Station A walk through National Trust woods and farmland, focused on William Willett, the campaigner for daylight saving time. William Willett (1856-1915) the campaigner for ‘daylight saving time’ lived for much of his life in Chislehurst. Although he did not survive to see daylight saving become law, he is generally credited with bringing the idea to public attention. He is buried in St Nicholas' Churchyard in Chislehurst, there is a memorial sundial in Petts Wood (that’s the actual wood, not the suburb) and of course there is also the Daylight Inn near Petts Wood Station. Also in Petts Wood there is a road called Willett Way, and the Willett Recreation Ground. It’s possible to take a pleasant two and a quarter mile walk from Chislehurst War Memorial to Petts Wood Station (or vice-versa) which takes you past his grave, the memorial sundial and the Daylight Inn. Most of the walk is through National Trust woods and farmland. In addition to the Grade II Listed Daylight Inn, there is also the opportunity to visit the two other pubs and a club in Petts Wood, plus the many pubs in Chislehurst, two of which are directly on this walking route. In the subsequent pages we describe the route, using the standard ‘Bromley Pub Walks’ format, plus we’ve also included some photographs taken along the route. Petts Wood and Hawkwood are owned and managed by the National Trust, and most of the former Hawkwood estate is still a working farm.
