Sele Road?

Hi Thinking of renting a house on Sele Road - down near the 414 but double glazed. A lot of space and a goodish garden for the money (which is in limited supply right now). Are there any major snags I should think about before signing up? I seem to remember some people in the neighbourhood being upset by the new hospital lights. Are they still there? Is the area prowled by gangs of feral youths? Any advice appreciated!

I'm facing the A414 near Valeside, like you double glazed and big garden, no major snags I can think of unless you have children soon to be approaching school age and don't want Sele to be the first option. You have the benefit of being the other side of the railway line so the traffic is a lot slower anyway, and the Esso is good for Milk, Papers etc.

No problem at all with Sele Road matey. I live in Willowmead and walk through there back and to Hertford North every day and seems pleasant enough. There are kids but they seem normal ones playing games etc.

The hospital lights have been turned off permenantly, because of pressure by the local residents. Ocasionally somebody will switch them on - usually during daylight so I don't think it is much of an issue.
