Evelyn Place
A typical street in 'The Village'.Many of the houses have no rear access for refuse collection, so wheelie bins have to be left outside the front doors. Beyond the mini roundabout (not immediately obvious in the photo), is Rookes Crescent (TL6905), which is not actually a crescent. The streets are named after Colonel Rookes Evelyn Bell Crompton, whose factory once stood on this site.

Hawksley BL8 prefabs, Beeches Road, Chelmsford
The first of many along this side of the road, these were built in 1948-50 and are remarkable survivors of the great many prefabs built to various designs after WWII. This design has an aluminium skin and frame, which accounts suggest has proved very durable.

The Village
A development of private and social housing built on the site of Marconi Radar. Part of the site had been Crompton's Arc Works, later Crompton Parkinson, and roads in The Village are named after Crompton and Parkinson, but not Marconi. The road seen here, beyond the roundabout, is Parkinson Drive.
