Froggy Pond, near Staunton Rise, Dedridge
Is actually officially called this on the internet-only biggest scale OS map, and has been tarted up a lot since the earlier picture in this square from 2009. A number of very tame ducks were loitering by the jetty thing while I was there. Is on the site of the former Dedridge limestone quarry. Incidentally, all the street names in this area of Livingston are, for no discernable reason, related to the novels of Walter Scott.

Crofthead, Livingston
Typical planned new town. Traffic and pedestrians separated with wide roads and lots of trees. Oh don't forget the roundabouts, lots of roundabouts, there is a big one with traffic lights that takes forever to get round at the bottom of this road. The tidiness of the woods and lawns is impressive.

Convenience store, Crofthead
I hope this becomes a historic supplemental. In a sprawling new town like Livingston, banks may be far from the shops and houses (the excellent Almondvale Centre is well provided for) Getting cash means using an ATM which are conveniently placed in local shops - only they charge, and heavily. OK but remember that benefits are now paid into bank accounts. Guess which income level pays the most in charges. In 2006 some machines in England were imposing a limit on the cash that could be withdrawn - that way folk pay the charges over and over again.

Lawnmower, Crofthead
A problem with a sprawling new town with acres of empty space, is the sheer amount of gardening required.

Dedridge
Typical Livvy. Concrete clad houses in a woodland setting. This part of town is well wooded and when the New Town Authority was wound up a lot of the woodland was transferred to the Woodland Trust. Behind the houses is a former shelter belt from the days when this was farmland.
