Estate aims to change image

FIVE NEW NAMES WILL REPLACE THE NOTORIOUS 'KEATS WAY'

- By Luciano Sepede

A NEW ERA has dawned for residents living on the infamous Keats Way estate after Charnwood borough councillors backed plans to have the notorious street name scrapped.

But what's in a name? A lot, according to the estate's residents, who have battled to remove the stigma of crime and vandalism which has blighted the area, and those who live in it, for many years.

Now "Keats Way" will effectively be killed off, and be replaced by five new names. They will be: Milton Court. Lewis Road, Warwick Court, Epinal Court and Copeland Crescent.
