Family-friendly

A residential area on the south-eastern side of Ashford, largely built from the 1960s and 70s. It sits up on higher ground above the town centre. There is a local primary school and a small parade of shops. It is one of the more affordable parts of Ashford and has a settled community feel, though the housing stock is nothing special.
