This is the latest video showing the construction of the new houses on the Stonebridge Park Estate, St Ann’s. There is a lot of work going on by EnviroEnergy who are installing the new district heating network in Magson close and Eastham Close.
I was surprised to see the 5 feet high perimeter brick wall and small yard at the rear of the first completed house on Stonebridge, located at the top of Magson Close. The rest of the Long Hedge Street also has small backyards, and there are no front gardens only off road parking areas outside the front doors! This may be a problem for young families with children, or planning to have offspring, as the kids will have no where to play outdoors. The nearest play area, Rocket Park, is some distance away.
The video begins showing a large crane lifting building materials for the new Peveril-Apartments on the former Pub site near Bluebell Hill Road. Melville Gardens, Jersey Gardens, Long Hedge top of Magson Close, Top view of Magson Close, Magson Close from the Lord Alcester Pub car park, Bottom of Magson close showing St Matthias Apartments, Magson Close proper. Stonebridge City Farm, top of Wray Close, then into Rocket Park. Pym Walk flats area, Dennet Close top-row, Dennet Close bottom-row, Eastham Close, Peveril pub site, Bollywood apartments. Then views looking down towards Flewitt Gardens. The last views show the double parked cars in Stonebridge Road, and Paul’s corner shop which has just been repainted outside. This is the only local shop available, with reasonable prices, for Stonebridge Park residents
