About

Halcon sits on the eastern side of Taunton and grew largely as a post‑war council estate. Streets are a mix of smaller terraces and semi‑detached houses clustered around a handful of shop parades, a primary school and a community centre that host local activities. Small patches of managed green space and playing fields are woven into the estate layout, and short local bus routes link Halcon with Taunton town centre and nearby services used by residents for shopping and health care.

Monkton Heathfield lies immediately north of Taunton and has seen substantial housing growth since the early 2000s. A relief road constructed through former farmland opened access for new housing plots and a small retail and employment area; that road now carries local traffic around the development rather than through village lanes. The area includes allotments, sports pitches and light industrial units, and has regular bus links and road access that connect it with Taunton’s rail station and the M5 for longer journeys.
