Looking south-west towards Ranger Drive from the Goodyear Neighbourhood Park. The St Modwen Developments regeneration on the 88 acre former Goodyear tyre factory site has continued for many years, with housing and the relandscaped Wingfoot Park (now named Goodyear Neighbourhood Park and reopened in 2018). The park needs more trees, and some have been planted. The area will be even more attractive in future years. There is a basketball/handball court, tennis courts and a children's play area. A fascinating nature conservation area has been built with three linked pools by Ranger Drive. The snow is a remnant of the 6-8cm fall dumped by Storm Arwen three days earlier.
