It also includes Howe Lodge, Cottages at Howe Ground, Thrifts Hill, The Wash, (formerly part of North Street, now Hedingham Road), Box Mill Lane, the Howe School and cottages at Does Corner. These dwellings were once part of The Howe Estate. Potted histories relating to the occupants who lived at The Howe together with the farm workers are also included. Several of these families have connections with the local area today. The mid 1950s saw the development of Ashlong Grove, built on Howe land, the vision of one man who intended to create an estate of individually designed and built houses. Information relating to this development is featured too.
