For whom will it be beastly in Eastleigh? (7)
This 2013 by-election http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastleigh_by-election,_2013 was called when its MP http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Huhne resigned in unfortunate circumstances.
Coming at a time when the Coalition http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservative_%E2%80%93_Liberal_Democrat_coalition_agreement was struggling for credibility, it attracted huge interest from the national media and resulted in a diverse range of political activists flocking to the constituency.

Businesses on corner of Fairoak Road and Alan Drayton Way
The shop on the right, B & K Pet Supplies, is no more. Locals tell me that before that it was a cycle shop. On the left is DG Supplies which sells sand and ballast in the old fashioned way out of open bays: take your trailer along and load as much as you require.

Field and the backs of houses in Oakgrove Gardens
Strictly speaking the public footpath runs diagonally across this field from the trees at left. However, I followed others in walking around the edge of the field, there being no obvious path across the crop.
