NEW COTTAGES, WEST BLATCHINGTON

These were the most recently built of the cottages around Blatchington Farm and they outlived all the others. The old, narrow Hangleton Road ran immediately in front of them but when the wide arterial road was made in 1936 they were left at an awkward angle and caused a serious obstruction to the view of approaching traffic. Built on the Nevill Estate they bore the Abergavenny crest seen in the centre wall. This photograph was taken in November 1954 and the cottages are soon to be removed and replaced by Council flats.
