This area contains a mix of small industrial and commercial properties. Initially developing as courtyard housing, as shown on the 1892 OS map, the character changed over time. By 1922, although the plots remained largely unchanged new buildings had been constructed and more small works had taken up residence. This process has continued through to the present day with a mix of new and old buildings on essentially the same plots as a century ago. Legibility of the former landscape is partial due to this.
