These excellent new houses, which were built on former railway land adjacent to the station, are ideally placed for those wishing to travel daily by rail to London. Sensitively, the road has been named Emily Davison Drive, and, if you didn't happen to know, Emily Davison was the courageous young suffragette who, in 1913, threw herself in front on the King's horse during the Derby. She died without regaining consciousness. The King's horse did not win the race.
