Probably. Looking from the other side, Robin Lane Fox, the quite well known ancient historian and gardening writer (and father of Martha, the founder of lastminute.com) used to live in the house on the right (in the picture below) and may still do so. Also, Michael Crick, the author and political journalist, lived in rooms a little further along on the right while an undergraduate in the 1980s.Correct.
So perhaps there is a conversation here somewhere.
Great to meet you Dan but I now have carbon paddles and steering wheel envy! Hope to make it to Brooklands at the end of April.Cheating a bit as this was pre-arranged - a rendezvous with @Guy and his lovely GT S just outside Podium Palace in Newbury.

And Halley, who I think invented the comet. Certainly has one named after him, lived in one of those houses. There's a blue plaque.Probably.

Grey Ghibli kindly let me out from lane two to lane three on the M25 on Thursday, I was in the GT. Immediately pressed ‘sport’ to open the valves and dropped two gears
