This whole estate around the former hospital seems to consist of houses and flats with no parking provision. The amount of on-street, and often on-pavement parking is like something from a 1930s estate, but it was built in the 21st century.

Secure access
The gate opens automatically with a key code, and closes after someone passes through. This helps wheelchair users, but it also means that the maintainer can wrap the light beam in a reflective jacket and the gate will stay open indefinitely.
