No Trace of The Fox This place now has no resemblance to earlier photos here.
Graham Horn's picture from 15 years ago shows the building which used to be on this site until a few years ago. Then it was a large pub "The Fox" <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/348561">SU6779 : The Fox at Cane End</a>
A later picture of mine <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2083210">SU6779 : Palm Tree  (Ex Fox)</a> shows it as an Indian restaurant "The Palm Tree."  
In my caption at the time I wished them luck in this tricky out of town location.
Not to be. After yet another spell as a Thai restaurant the place finally closed its doors.
Now demolished and replaced by these new houses. The only clues are the pub style sign post which now carries the developer's name board and the new cul de sac which is called Fox Heath Gardens..
