It is set in maintained landscaped gardens with woods and a stream running through; giving the impression of living in a semi-rural setting. The court is ideally situated with nearby services including a library, bus service, swimming pool and retail shops; all within a few minutes walk. There is a communal lounge with drink facilities where the residents meet for games, theme evenings and coffee. On-site facilities include a court manager, communal lounge, laundry block and a car park. The residents enjoy a great community spirit and a Residents' Social Committee organises events and trips out throughout the year.Our Court Manager Service is an important and integral part of Housing 21’s approach to supporting our residents.
