Woodbank

In the 1950s a large house called 'Ten Acres' stood on part of the old field 'Great Jeffreys': the land and buildings were used as a poultry farm and later by a meat processing company.

Hallmark June 1989. Planning Application. Demolition of existing industrial buildings and erection of 22 dwellings, access road and new garage for Hillview at Ten Acres, Loosley Row.

In the middle of the 1990s, the factory and land adjoining was sold and now houses the Woodbank development of 24 properties.

A new access road (cul-de-sac) was constructed at that time and a 1950's bungalow 'Long View' demolished to accommodate part of the new road. A section of the land once belonging 'Ten Acres' has a Covenant attached preventing property being built within the site. It is unknown when, or by whom this Covenant was made but it was certainly in existence in the 1950s.
