Hatton Grange building site
A no trespass view from the edge of the building works through an open access gate. Builders can be seen hard at it on a Sunday morning. This is a Persimmon homes development.
I am trying to establish if the other areas of new build that are contiguous are also Hatton Grange or whether they have different names and developers. I had assumed the whole complex was Hatton Grange.

Whittington is a village but these belong more to the urban sprawl of Worcester.

New estate, Worcester
Nearing completion but still a few finishing touches required. On the left is Cooke Close while the path to the right leads to a playground and some open space with adjoining allotments and the pond for the sustainable urban drainage system.

Persimmon Homes - Hatton Grange marketing suite
A new development on the edge of Worcester. The older Red Hill estate is seen to the left. The building is still continuing in one corner but the majority now seem to be occupied. This particular thoroughfare is Cooke Close. I seem to be the first to submit images to Geograph.

Preserved World War II pill box
This was to defend government offices on this site. The offices have gone and a new housing development is in full flow on their site. The pill box has been retained and fenced off as a reminder of the site's original purpose.

A surviving tree in a new housing estate
New housing is appearing at many locations in Worcester and work is now in progress on the far side of the A4440 bypass. I had thought this marked some sort of boundary - obviously not! These particular houses are very close to the A4440 on the city side. This was a Sunday walk to judge progress since an earlier visit and I found the estate largely finished. However, even a year later (January 2019) the roads still have to receive a final surface and possess raised metalwork. It strikes me that the developers rush to build the houses but drag their heels on niceties - like proper level roads.
