Mix of properties built piecemeal on an area which contained late 19th century settlement up until the 1970s. There are some older properties surviving within this polygon giving fragmentary legibility. Prior to this historic maps show very regular enclosures on this land. This was probably part of the Darton and Barugh Parliamentary enclosure award of 1823 (date from English 1985). The area was still unenclosed common in 1775 (Jefferys 1775).
