I own a little yellow roof townhouse, 10cm to the left of the green arrow. Because it's townhouse central, you get the odd rogue/robust tenant in such a complex. But, otherwise, it's quite nice. There are heaps of shops within walking distance, so it's pretty swell.

Edit, damn google maps didn't work.

My street is sometimes considered as upper-class. But it has bad streets around it.

House isnt arrowed, tis the one further right with the blue car outside.


For a view of the area, just put M41 as the postcode into Google Earth. Not a bad little town tbh. Apparently we have the official best Chippy in the country, according to the prestigious British Potato Council (cant say i was too impressed by it though, rather use the pizza shop next door), and the barbers opposite won the FHM barber of the year (again, if you want anything but that half a mullet with no sides look, then go elsewhere)

Interesting side note to mine is that the house just left of the big white houses just behind mine is the one where i grew up as a young child. Kinda weird as i can see out of my current window into my old back garden. The horrid people have ripped out my sandpit

The arrow's a fair way off. I live in the line of houses level with the yellow tree closest to the brown field, a little way above and to the left of the arrow.
