Dist:0.3km<br/>Rempstone Rd in Gravelly Hill is the main residential road of a large housing estate north of Queen Anne Drive. It is unusual because it has a large number of closes and cul-de-sacs leading off it but they are all named Rempstone Rd. The road only has one access point on to Queen Anne Drive in the foreground and this shows one of the closed cul-de-sacs that butt up against Queen Anne Drive on the southern edge of the estate.
