The Mansfield property is on the edge of the town centre sandwiched between main roads and in an area depressed with little to recommend it.

True, rental potential for drug addicts only. Strangely Mansfield has had an excess of council houses in the past and knocked some of the less desirable ones down, I have no idea who ends up in those horror show terraces.

The Forest Town property again unlikely to attract thiose with a little more depsosit who may go for the Clipstone newbuilds, which look seriously over priced and not in an area I would like to live.
Garibaldi secondary school is not burnt down so often nowadays.

Ah my old school, which appears to have improved, but only as the neighbouring ones have dropped down faster than it has.

The Clipo newbuilds are a disaster, all dropped massively since build and are unsellable at anywhere near the original cost. I know people who worked on them and the paint covers a lot of build problems, there are also rumours that there is something very odd about the drains. Still the area is harmless, better than 90% of areas on that list.

great stuff M21er - I would also have no problem with this being in the main forum.

I only saw this because of my Twitter feed.
