Dicken's Heath
A massive new town development now occupies much of the southern part of this square. This is the newly created "Village Centre" complete with smart shops and the inevitable supermarket.

Dickens Heath: Waterside
Being a total stranger in the area and idly dawdling along the Stratford-on-Avon Canal it came as a complete shock to exit the rural idyll of the Warwickshire countryside and immediately come across this. Had we inadvertently sailed into a set for a new working of the film "Battleship Potemkin"? Would an out of control pram suddenly lurch down the steps? Was our boat said craft? Could we expect a mutiny in Solihull? Would our spam be infested with maggots? Was this all just a nightmare?
But Roger was here 4 years previously (and totally coincidentally to the day)
Image so it all must be true...

Luxury apartments, Dickens Heath Village, Solihull
The Waterside.
This grandiose development, started c2006(?) must have investors, developers, and purchasers thinking more than twice now that we are into 2010 in the aftermath of the "credit crunch". Strictly for the "serious" end of the market, the sales hype cannot bring itself to mentioning the canal.
We are told, "A stunning multi award winning collection of luxury apartments and penthouses (is) available for purchase from Parkridge Homes. Waterside surrounds an impressive cascading water feature, with spectacular views across the Stratford-upon-Avon waterway, nature reserve and the Solihull countryside beyond.
If you fancy a gaff down by "the cut" this may be for you. The view is from the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal, by the footbridge crossing into the nature reserve.

Luxury apartments, Dickens Heath, Solihull
The Waterside.
This grandiose development, started c2006(?) must have investors, developers, and purchasers thinking more than twice now we are into 2010 and the aftermath of the "credit crunch" and economic recession. Strictly for the "serious" end of the market, the sales hype cannot bring itself to mentioning the canal.
We are told, "A stunning multi award winning collection of luxury apartments and penthouses (is) available for purchase from Parkridge Homes. Waterside surrounds an impressive cascading water feature, with spectacular views across the Stratford-upon-Avon waterway, nature reserve and the Solihull countryside beyond." Has anyone noticed that anything considered above the average these days is "stunning"? My head hurts :-(
For search engines, this is on the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal, from which the likes of you and I can gawp and take snaps.
