Outbuilding of Stocking Farm
Stocking Farm was one of three farms in the Lightmoor area, left undeveloped by Telford until 2009 or 2010. The main farm buildings are now in the process of conversion and improvement (2010), but I don't rate the chances of this small cottage lasting too long. Update August 2020. It turns out I was completely wrong at that front, as the tiny building is in reality a rare survival of a late 18th century squatter's cottage, dated to 1797, and built by a local miner called Robert Bayley, earning himself a 6d fine for "an encroachment upon the Lord's waste". It was Grade II listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101030945-squatters-cottage-at-national-grid-reference-sj6764105978-dawley-hamlets#.X0KTkMhKjcs & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1030945 in 1992, and has recently been restored from a rather dilapidated condition to become a community education facility, hosting courses and small displays by the local school and Shropshire Wildlife Trust.

Housing development - Lightmoor
Telford's development continues apace. In this case, it's the building of a 'community village', sponsored by the Bournville Village Trust, which aims to create a community in the Lightmoor area with a 'village feel' to it. A new school is being built at the same time as the housing, along with open spaces, wooded areas, and small pools.
