Took a walk around Newton again today, to see what access was like, still easy as. It was also a visit to see what was happening here, Turns out that they have put in for planning permission to build an "eco" town here, build starts sometime next year, was on the news yesterday, which I missed:(

Was on the Newton for a few hours, before I was stopped by a worker and asked what I was doing, not going to bore you with the convo we had, was the standard thing, we all know, lol. Was a nice guy tho.

This will be the last time I'll see Newton this way :( , am sure when I'm home, it'll be gone/ in the process of being demolished :(

So here are the photos

Blimy, they aren't wasting any time are they! I'm glad I got to see it while I had the chance, it's not going to be there a lot longer by the looks of things. 6 months time and I doubt they'll be anything left at all!
