Mackie estate

View of the estate and the downs

Martin Nimmo

Prominent in the middle distance of the first photograph, is the playing fields of Warmdene School, with the Mackie Estate beyond it up to the base of the Downs.

Although outside the area under survey, the Hollingbury factory estate provides work for many Patcham residents.

The Industrial Estate. Do I remember this right? When you come past the Asda car park on the main road the Asda car park is much lower than the road, like at the bottom of a cliff. I remember an old factory building there which had its roof level with the main road and there was a car park on the roof which was accessed directly from the main road. Is that right?
