Tolkien's House To Be Flattened - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

My whimsy took me to Westbourne this morning and it being fine and having a camera to hand I thought I'd go and take a look at the house that may be named Tolkien. The only progress is that there is a huge hoarding blocking view of the site announcing that the development of the two 3/4 bedroom energy efficient houses will be completed in 2010!!! Real sign of the times that... Odd thing is it also said that kitchen/living room would have garden access .. I do hope that means the kitchen and livingrooms. since these houses will sell for around the million mark I would hope they would run to a separate kitchen!
