Here, off Furniss Avenue, Bellway Homes is building new houses which, according to the company 'cover a range of styles including townhouses and executive detached properties, sure to appeal to professionals and families alike'. The location is certainly a good one, close to Dore village, and perhaps for once justifies the overworked phrase 'sought after area'. The house on the immediate left is a show home and the builder's name for the development is 'Wyvern Grange', evoking Dore's ancient connection with the wyvern symbol.
