Great Western Park, a green field site undergoing a massive development of new housing. The current (2012) map edition bears very little relation to what is now here. Isn't ad-speak amazing? This sign, I mean, what exactly is the message here? Green hillsides are great because we build over them and make lots of money?.....err...You get a great view of one of the nation's largest power stations? Err...Never mind, you're part of it, so...um....great.
