The current plans
The trustees of Abbeymills Mosque are currently in the early stages of planning to build a replacement Mosque on their West Ham site.
Recent press coverage on the Mosque, much of which has been somewhat exaggerated, has made the trustees keen to ensure that the public are informed of the full facts.
The trustees, who have appointed world-class architects Allies and Morrison to design the scheme, are proposing to develop their 18 acre site with some of the following facilities:
Mosque capable of accommodating 12,000 people, but with a normal weekly attendance of about half that figure.
Visitor and Conference centre, with facilities that will be available for the public
A new entrance to West Ham tube station
A school
Extensive decontamination of the site (from its former Chemical Factory days), retention of some of the natural habitat and landscaping
Mr Abdul Rashid Bhatti said on behalf of the Tablighi Jamaat trustees
"We are committed to working in Newham and we are delighted to be taking our vision forward in providing a new mosque for the benefit of all those who follow the Muslim faith. We are looking for leading Architects to design the building. While we appreciate that the media would be interested in our plans, recent coverage has been wildly exaggerated. We do not expect to be making any formal applications until the autumn at the earliest."
