Looking north near the junction of Oak Hill, Finchfield Hill and Finchfield Road West. The Lidl store opened circa 2009 after many years of delay in planning, then a further delay because they were ignoring height restrictions on their approved development plans. The thriving Windmill Community Church https://www.windmillcommunitychurch.org/ was formerly the Church of St Thomas, built in 1875, and closed in 1997. Considerable restoration work was required before it reopened circa 2020-2021.
