Spoiler alert… Answer below…
There are lots of solar panels on the roofs, which are more common on the south-facing side.
TV satellite dishes in the UK tend to point close to south-east.
There are white screens in the glasshouses to protect the plants from southern sun.
There are lots of wildflowers, more common on south-facing side of tracks.
