Event Area Great Hollands is considered by many to provide one of the most challenging urban areas in the country. The estate was built in the late 1960s with the idea of separating the pedestrian areas from the cars and other traffic. There are numerous blocks of housing with small grassy courtyards, complex alleyways, many canopies and linked pathways, garage blocks and cul-de-sacs. Much of the area has blocks which appear to repeat in shape but have subtle differences making concentration vital. This is urban orienteering at its finest !
