Sorry just seen some of the other replies.

Could be something to do with Avon but that doesn't seem to exist as a ceremonal county:

So while it's a place, for some reason iGoogle seem to think it's as big as Bath and Swindon!

A search for "Avon new town" doesn't seem to reveal anything though, so presumably not a new town site?
