Built on the former Clifton or Rawcliffe airfield starting in the mid-1980s, this estate is now almost completely full of businesses ranging from builders merchants to high-tech, comprising mainly office accomodation and including sports facilities and a playgroup. Surprisingly there is a good representation of wildlife in the trees and bushes surrounding the offices. There used to be a family of brown owls, but their habitat is no more. Occasionally second world war bombs were dug up here during development.
