Appealing to future buyers
The new houses going up on Airport Road have long hoardings. In one particular spot, the boards are covered with contributions from local primary schoolchildren. Quite what the developers expect from the coloured in drawings in open to speculation. Maybe they will be customers of the next generations.

A new pond for the new business park
The Filwood Green Business Park is a pretty recent addition to the area. Previously this was the northern end of Whitchurch Airport, which saw vital service in WWII before being closed in the late 1950s. There is a brook that runs across the Airport Road but this pond is part of the latest landscaping; the buildings occupy the site of one of the hangars.

Asda will be one short
A traditional sight: a shopping trolley in a drainage ditch. Back in the 1950s this was part of Whitchurch Airport - one of very few airports to remain open to non-military transport in WWII.

Greenery at the Green
The modern offices and business park looks onto the Airport Road, with a section of the front given over to some suitably wild flowers and shrubs - such is the outlook of modern architectural and environmental thinking. The building itself carries the latest in green energy use and conservation, as seen by the louvred panels and air circulation units that replace conventional air-conditioning systems.

Filwood Green Business Park
Built in 2015, the facility incorporates the latest in green and environmentally-focussed thinking. It has solar panelling, earthen roof sections that grow wildlife-friendly plants, air circulation and heating systems, electric car charging points and has been awarded BREEAM accreditation. Inside, the furniture is mainly recycled from materials once used in the Council chambers and remade by a local charity workshop.

Bare berms
A small area in the old airport grounds has been given over to the local youths. It is not clear if it will be retained when the area is developed for housing in the near future.
