I am going to guess that it is New town, Ashford.

When the answer finally comes up CAT - please put me out of my misery and name the road the houses are in beyond the railway line.  I can't find a matching road in any of the locations so far.   ;D

Many thanks for goose wishes John Walker, still touch and go.


All the guesses are  all in the wrong half of the county.


This 'new town' was going to be the centre of two major national industries before it's untimely demise.

Sorry for the delay. Sick goose at home occupying date and night time.


Sadly, it's neither of those suggested by Pete or John Walker.


In its original design it was regarded as a totally new town, but both world wars, and commercial considerations, put a stop to its expansion until only a few yeas ago.

New Barn / Hartley estates ?  Edit: Not sure looking at Google on where the districts start/finish.   I'm thinking the houses in Caxton Close.

Many thanks JohnWalker.


It's one of those views I remember from another rural trip.


Here is my next, bit of a long shot (literally), but where is this newly constructed 'town'?

Are they some of the semi-derelict buildings at Snowdown Colliery?

The pylons helped but as I found out, there's a lot of dead end lanes near twin pylons  ;D ;D




Next one.   Also next to a railway line and station

Well done, I wondered if the pylons might give it away   It was the Sun (some say Rising Sun)  Lower Higham.   Sold last year for around 400K + 100k for the yard + outbuildings All yours

Sun Farm, Church Street.   I've been following twin lines of pylons all afternoon as I could see a pair in the back of the photo.
