Longfield Road Rodwell - Weymouth

Image: © Sarah Smith Taken: 29 Jun 2010

At the top of Rodwell is Longfield Road, a cul-de-sac, which used to be unmetalled and unadopted. There was no pavement on the right. Netherton House stood at the bottom, now pulled down, and on the right were allotments. Devenish Brewery used to dump hops for recycling as compost in the hedge! The stone building on the left used to be Holy Trinity Vicarage and had a wonderful magnolia growing against its front wall between the windows. Today there has been much in-filling and building in gardens and anywhere else where there is free space.
