More about this scene
In the 19th century, this road was known as Coldharbour Lane and was built up as the Avenue during the Victorian and Edwardian periods. Hill House, on the left, was built for the Reverend Arthur Field in 1899. In 1978 the grounds were used for building and the development known as Hill House Close was born. At the 'top' end of the Avenue stands Quarry House, built in 1924 for the writer Littleton Powys, designed by his architect brother Albert Powys. The road in the distance bends to the left and emerges into Newland.
