The place

What it islike

A working fruit hill until the eighties, still terraced, still walled. The old orchard grid is what the newer houses are set into — you cannot build across a terrace here without the committee asking why.

The south aspect and the dry-stone retaining walls make it two degrees warmer than anywhere else we sell. Things grow here that do not grow four miles away.
