Terraced housing in the Tilford Road area. Newstead Colliery Village, as it was once known, was created for workers employed by Newstead Colliery whose pits operated between 1874-1987. Part of the area has been redeveloped into a nature reserve and business park. This picture was taken from a grassy hill adjacent to the village's former chapel, premises that are currently being used by an electrical motor repairing firm. The stationary cars are parked in the former church car park.
