During the late 1970s and early 1980s the Dovehouse estate was built on land that used to be part of Dovehouse Farm. The old farmhouse still exists at SP275545, with the housing estate surrounding it.
To the west of this area is situated Wellesbourne Mountford Airfield. This was constructed during WW2 on 200 acres of land which used to be part of Waterloo Farm, belonging to the Littler family. The farmhouse was situated at approximately SP268547, but no sign of it remains today, under the M40 Distribution Park Industrial Estate, which has been built on the eastern edge of the airfield. For more information on the history of the airfield see Link
When the housing estate was being built, the roads on it needed names. I have not discovered the details of the naming process, but I know that originally some roads had initial names with Shakespeare connections, i.e. Pembroke Gardens was Hathaway Gardens. Whatever the process, the final outcome was that the majority of the roads were named after aircraft connections, presumably with reference to the adjoining airfield. I have compiled an alphabetical list of the roads on the estate, with my interpretation of the derivation of the names.
