Telscombe Playing Fields

I think these were landscaped in the 1990s and are the only remnant of an old field called North West Laine according to Telscombe's 1842 tithe map. The rest of the field now lies under the estate built around Kirby Drive during the early 1980s. The trees on the right mark the boundary with Telscombe Cliffs Way.
