A short walk around the new development in Rowhedge
built by Redrow and recently completed.

The walk begins at Marsh Crescent,
which is the main road into the village. The first of the
new development houses are shown on the left from the Rowhedge Royal British
Legion and leads into Oxton Close. The second picture is of Oxton
Close from Marsh Crescent..

The picture above on the left is
actually inside
Oxton Close. On returning to Marsh Crescent, the right hand
picture, we stroll up towards the High Street which is just around
the corner..
We are now on the other side of the road looking
back to Oxton Close and cross back over for the entrance to the Riverside
properties, as yet, un-named.
This picture was taken just past the
entrance on the previous photo looking east towards the high street.
We again cross the road for the photo on the left.
These pictures were taken from Head Street
and on the left is the first building to be completed. For the next
shot, I simply just turned to my right and took the next picture which is
of the High Street.
Continuing along the High Street and
just before Dark House Lane. After the last house on the left will
be built the Heritage Centre on land donated to the community by the
developers Redrow. The second picture is looking back to Y-junction
and Marsh Crescent.
We have now past the Anchor and on
the Quay opposite the Albion looking at the eastern part of the
development. We resume our stroll and the on the right are the very
attractive houses that make up this area.
We are still strolling along the High Street and
looking into the entrance to the riverside properties, indeed, the second
photo, you can clearly see Wivenhoe across the river.
We are now at the end of this short
tour. Unfortunately I was not able this time, to take any pictures of the
riverfront as it is private property, but, I have been promised by
one the
residents that they will permit me to take a couple of shots which I will
put up on the site shortly.
It only remains for me to say how
delighted I am with the project and welcome all the new houses, flats
together with the residents to the village and hope you, the residents get
to love the village as I do.
Cheers
