Your article’s description of a property in Southwater (Fantasy house hunt, 18 January) may give the impression that Berkeley Homes benevolently provided the facilities mentioned as new to the village. In fact, the sports and social club, including the cricket pavilion, cricket and football pitches and playground, had been in existence for many years. However, as part of their massive housing development encompassed all the land they were on, they simply replaced the existing buildings and facilities further up the hill on the edge of an unremarkable estate.

• Thank you for a marvellously readable Journal on Thursday: Owen Jones on crime, punishment and rehabilitation; Martin Kettle on Brexit; Suzanne Moore; a wonderful obituary on Terry Jones by Stuart Jeffries; a long-overdue long read on Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe by Patrick Wintour. And I haven’t even mentioned the letters page. Worth every penny of my subscription.
