The parish of Tovil has seen an explosion of house building since the early 1970s. This Wimpey estate, built near the edge of the Parish boundary in the mid-70s, is on the site of a former quarry that was partially refilled, hence the difference in levels between Avington Close and Rainham Close in the background. An ancient footpath that runs left to right behind the fir trees in the centre of the picture was retained when the estate was built. Going to the right, the footpath leads to Straw Mill Hill and the former milling region of the Loose Valley Image
