Southall: Golf Links Estate: Baird Avenue
Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 18 Aug 2013
This was taken looking along the north side of Baird Avenue with the 13 storey Sheringham Tower in the distance. It is one of three near-identical tower blocks on this London Borough of Ealing estate, the others being Gleneagles and St Andrews. The estate was not the first housing development on this site, as the 1962 Ordnance Survey map shows a completely different layout of neat rows of identical houses, probably post-war prefabs. Baird Avenue did however exist at that time. The tree is a rowan.
