The Batch Youth Centre
As a new, post-war housing estate the area was planned with a large recreation ground for the community to use. The original Cadbury Heath Youth Centre was built a little to the northeast of here and is now new houses. The present building - which started as a pavilion - has been greatly enlarged.

Youth centre and youth activities
The Batch Community and Youth Centre was hit on the evening of 7th June, 2021, by an arson attack. A fire was deliberately started which destroyed a bench and damaged power lines, the alarm system and a window. Police say they have CCTV evidence and have made enquiries. Did the centre not have enough activities for someone?

Substation Cowhorn Hill
The right hand edge of the substation is in the same grid square as the photographer. Beyond the substation is the disused Cowhorn Hill Pumping Station that is on a former colliery site and was a source of drinking water. The pumping station is soon to be demolished.

Cowhorn Hill Pumping Station
This is an old colliery site that was redeveloped as a pumping station for the West Gloucester Water Co in 1910. There were two horizontal three cylinder compound pumping engines built in 1910 by Summers & Scott of Gloucester. Steam was superseded in the 1950s when the company was absorbed by the Bristol Waterworks Company. Permission has been granted to demolish these buildings. It is most unusual for the chimney to have survived and it is a shame it is all to be lost.
