The Wensley Estate is first depicted on the 1987 OS mapping. The site was used to accommodate prefabricated detached housing in the immediate post-war period with generously proportioned medium / low density plots (map and pictorial evidence from www.picturesheffield.com). The housing is shown on the 1954 1:1250 plan but appears to have been cleared by the 1973 6 inch sheet. The present estate is built of high density low rise units which have been very closely spaced. There is no legibility of the piecemeal enclosures shown on the 1851 OS map.
