Behind a pair of metal gates off Constitution Rise a charity has been working part-time for the last 6-9 months to transform an overgrown 5 acre woodland site and pond into an outdoor learning centre for children. The site was once part of the grounds of a large house that was variously known as The Rookery, The Grove and Goodenough House during its life (c.1800-1936). The house was demolished (c.1936-38) to make way for an adjacent L.C.C. council housing estate on a large corner plot of land formed by the junction of Constitution Rise with Moordown.
