Following a recent BBC article on Geograph, I've taken the opportunity to upload some frankly rather dull shots of housing estates. ;-) As usual, I was here in a lorry delivering someone's roof, and I took this using the company iPhone during a break from unloading. I don't know where the name comes from, but the old OS map shows this whole area to be farmland and woods, with the intriguing legend "Roman Coins Found" emblazoned across it.
