Dorothy Boot Homes, Wilford

The Dorothy Boot Homes in Wilford were built in the early 20th century for army veterans. The attractive semi-circle of houses fronts a private green. The houses are now derelict and abandoned, but there are plans to refurbish them (although I suspect modern-day veterans won't be able to afford them).
