This view is from the Capital Ring between Biggin Wood and Norwood Grove, just after it leaves the former, and looks down Bigginwood Road. It gives a hint of the fine views to be had when Norwood Grove is reached. At the time that Norwood Grove was under threat of being built on, the local residents launched a fighting fund and set up a committee under the chairmanship of Mr. Stenton Covington who worked hard to make a successful national appeal. Covington Way, which is followed from here to Norwood Grove, is named after him.
