The start of Bugdens Lane off Burnbake Road.

House number 19 in the process of being built.

The hedge on the right has gone and house numbers 24 and 26 now stand in that area.

The end of Bugdens Lane.

This gentle rural scene was immediately to the right from the picture above.

12 September 1976      [1/S/18]
The beginning of Bugdens Copse. Beyond the area to the left is where Safeways now stands.

12 September 1976      [1/S/20]
Getting into the copse.

12 September 1976      [1/S/21]
Crossing the ditch halfway through the copse. The ditch was put into pipes on the left-hand side when Safeways was built.

12 September 1976      [1/T/1]
The trees are a bit thinner just ahead.

12 September 1976      [1/T/2]

"The Old Coach House" and "The Old Stables" in Copse Road.

12 September 1976      [1/T/4]
Copse Road looking up towards Vicarage Road.

The Ordnance Survey map of 1963 shows Copse Road as being called Windmill Road. This was undoubtedly correct as there was a wind-driven artesian well near the road.
