An ideal location, on a railway and surrounded by moors and low quality farmland where a glacier dumped a lot of sand and gravel. The rolling sand hills have now been formed into a network of golf courses with another on the way. View from Eastbow Hill and rather more peaceful than a previous view when the area was under siege due to a meeting of "World Leaders", including such delightful folk as Vladimir Putin, George Bush Jnr (and poodle) at the G8 meeting in 2005.
