Epwood & Evenlode New Town

Epwood and Evenlode New Town run together these days. Evenlode New Town comprises dozens of little mining cottages, scattered on the hills around Evenlode Coal Mine. It’s a dark, damp corner of the Bekonscot District, and freight trains trundle along the cliff bases with loads of coal.

Look out too for:

• The coal as it comes out of the ground
• The archaeological dig
• The “arts and crafts” and “art deco” 1920s style houses
• The retirement home with its fountains
• The petrol station and workshops
• Polo Match, Epwood Castle and Bodger’s Yard

AND: Remote-controlled boats to play with!
