28 Test Rise (centre panel)

Mike Gee

Test Rise was established on open land adjoining
Branksome Avenue in 1963. Thomas King the builder
bought a parcel of small plots of land to develop twenty-seven
houses and two bungalows. When Annette and
Mike Keys moved into the house they were disturbed by
the noise of concrete runways being broken up on
the airfield. Fortunately this was short-lived.
