The Powell Estate was a council housing complex in Peckham, London, whose residents in 2005 included Rose Tyler, her mother Jackie and Rose's boyfriend Mickey Smith. Jackie first moved into Flat 48 of Bucknall House at Powell Estate in the late 1980s with her husband Pete. It was here that their daughter Rose grew up.
Powell Estate became the site of considerable excitement from the years 2005 to 2007, thanks to the presence of the Ninth Doctor. An Auton's severed arm followed Rose to her flat and attacked her and the Doctor. (DW: Rose) Jackie and Mickey were attacked and pursued by a Slitheen (DW: Aliens of London / World War Three) and at Christmas a Christmas tree came to life and rampaged through the Tyler flat. (DW: The Christmas Invasion) During the period in which the Doctor travelled with Rose, the Powell Estate became an unofficial "home base" for the Doctor, as he and Rose returned there occasionally to touch base with her mother (DW: Army of Ghosts).
The Powell estate was one of many sites in London and around the world which were invaded by Cybermen from the alternate reality known as "Pete's World" before the Tenth Doctor expelled the invaders into the Void. (DW: Army of Ghosts / Doomsday) As a result of these events, however, both Rose and Jackie were stranded on Pete's World, effectively abandoning their home in the Powell Estate.
Just prior to regenerating, the Doctor, nearing the end of his tenth incarnation, made one final visit to the Powell Estate on 1st January 2005. He observed Rose and Jackie, months before he first met them in their timeline. He also exchanged a few words with Rose before staggering back to the TARDIS, parked nearby, to regenerate. (DW: The End of Time)
The Doctor claimed that he picked up his accent from the Powell Estate when talking to Archie Maplin in 1929. He found common ground with Maplin by noting that the estate was in Peckham, Maplin's home. (IDW: Silver Scream)
