The end of the green strip, Great Ashby, Stevenage
Although the housing development continues on each side, beyond Botany Bay Lane, which runs diagonally across, marked by the line of trees, the strip between the power lines is fields, not public open space.

Botany Bay Lane, Great Ashby, Stevenage
This was a lane leading to a farm, beyond the site of which it continues as a bridleway. It is the boundary of Stevenage – the new suburb of Great Ashby continues on the left, but is in North Hertfordshire. It was formerly in Graveley Civil Parish, but recently a new Great Ashby Community Council has been created.

Great Ashby Estate.
This development started about three years ago and is still being built. The empty space to the right will be built on sooner or later. The pylons are of course part of the National Grid. Why on earth are we building houses under these lines?
