Taken from a Westland Scout helicopter.  By this time,  most of the orginal 1950s single-storey bungalows from the first build of the village had been knocked down and replaced by multi-storey blocks of flats (the large white structures). Some of the old bungalows that remained are fairly well hidden in the trees, to the left and slightly below the top three white blocks.
