The unassuming farm gateway here may shortly become the entrance to part of a proposed housing development called "Brighouse Garden Suburb" comprising 1257 properties on 62ha of land. Construction was planned to be phased from 2020-2033, although the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic seems to have delayed the start of construction. It's not clear how this narrow lane will cope with the additional construction traffic, or that of residents when properties are occupied. See also Image
