Meyers Wood, Partridge Green
Image: © Simon Carey Taken: 6 Aug 2016
A cul de sac off High Street named after a former wood that numbers 1-16 on the left along with neighbouring Huffwood Trading Estate were constructed on. The road itself is the former access road for Partridge Green station which opened in 1861 and closed in 1966. Numbers 1-16 were built in the 1950s whilst 17-18 out of shot to the right of the white van in the distance were added in the early 1970s on the eastern side of the bridge that carried the B2135 over the line. Numbers 20-29 were added in the late 1970s with 20-23, visible in the distance, built on the site of the former station house.
