Manse Farm
Through the trees are the remaining upstanding buildings of Manse Farm in Hay-a-Park. There is a major building project by Linden Homes for 300 new homes across 8.5 ha of the old farms holdings, and it looks like from the plans that these farm buildings will be getting demolished in the near future, although it does look as though at least some of the mature trees will be staying.
It will certainly be interesting to take this view again in a few years time.
