| landmarks-text | NEW HEALTH CENTRE DOMINATES! (2), 'LITTLE ORCHARD' BUNGALOW (18) WAS AN ORCHARD WITH PIG STILES BEING PART OF A SMALL FARM (23) ON THE FLANK OF NO. 12 DAPPS HILL. FAIRACRES CLOSE WAS PART OF THE OLD WORKHOUSE LAND LATER BELONGING TO KEYNSHAM HOSPITAL (NOW THE HEALTH CENTRE). THE DEVELOPER WAS ALLOWED TO BUILD AN EXTRA STOREY ON THE FAIRACRE FLATS BECAUSE OF THE COST OF DEALING WITH THE PROBLEMS OF SPRINGS AND WATER SEEPAGE ON SITE (WELL KNOWN LOCALLY BUT APPARENTLY NOT TO THE DEVELOPER OR THE PLANNERS). THE HEIGHT OF THESE BUILDINGS IMPINGES ON THE CONSERVATION AREA. |
