View from Rival Moor Road The road to the East Hampshire District Council Offices at Penns Place goes along the edge of the housing.  To the south the view is across open farmland towards a solitary house at the southern end of Heath Road East.  I lived within 400 metres of here as a child so this visit, for a meeting, took me back.
