Lee Acre, Little Grove and Bretts
Image: © Ian Capper Taken: 21 Oct 2016
Part of a group of apartment blocks by the junction of Oak Ridge and Stubs Hill on the Goodwyns Estate, a largely late 1950s housing estate built by Dorking Urban District Council on land compulsory purchased from local benefactor Howard Martineau, who until 1954 owned Goodwyns Place on Tower Hill, just to the north of the estate. Of the three pairs of blocks seen here, part of Lee Acre is on the left, a small part of Little Grove behind and the two sections of Bretts are on the right. In the background are the two tower blocks on the estate, Linden Lea and Wenlock Edge.
