The area of Bracken lane, Fernbank and The Meadows was at one time occupied by McGrouthers who, in 1971 sold it on to The Farmer’s Marketing Corporation. Kirkpatricks of Scotland and Harris of Scotland in succession continued to operate the plant until 1990 when it was to become used as a Business Park.
In August 2003 Planning Permission was approved for a “Residential development comprising 86 units consisting of detached, semi detached, terraces and flats.” on the site.
This has resulted in the pleasant quiet Cul de Sac that we have there today.
