Part of a large new housing estate on a greenfield site on the northern edge of Winchester. This air photo shows the size of the development. Image The name comes from Venta Belgarum which is what Winchester was called in Roman times. By coincidence, a local estate agency is called Belgarum. I wonder if they sold any of these.
