Road into the Building Site
A large new development site stretching between the Didcot ring road and the Appleford road over a kilometre away. The roofs of new houses at the far end of the site are visible on the horizon.

These Trees Have Survived
Now part of a large new housing estate, this was all fields until recently as can be seen in the background. These trees were no doubt once along a hedgerow and have been retained, presumably because they look nice.

View along Franklin Gardens
What will be the main road through a large area of new housing north of the Didcot ring road.
Like elsewhere in new Didcot, generous cycle tracks have been provided.

Six Trees
For the time being, still corralled in behind the by-pass, ever expanding Didcot hasn't yet spilled over into these fields.

New bit of park, Franklin Gardens
A semi-circle of open space has been laid out along the west side of the brand new road called Franklin Gardens. I don't know if that's the name of the park as well.
No doubt part of the landscaping and amenity provisions now required from developers by the planners on new housing sites.

Franklin Gardens Neighbourhood Park
Another view of the new park which has been laid out adjacent to a large new housing development.
Still looking a bit bleak at the moment, but give it a couple of years and I guess it will have grown up quite nicely.
