A private housing estate in the cul-de-sac style built in the early 1980s. The western part of the polygon along Hadrian Road is built on the site of earlier terraced housing. The terraces were shown as cleared on the 1981 OS map. They were constructed In the early part of the 20th century by John Brown Ltd. for workers at the newly sunk Rotherham Main colliery. The name, Atlas street, was taken from Browns Atlas steelworks. Prior to this the area consisted of fields with the character of enclosed strips, probably enclosed from medieval open fields. The northern boundary of the estate fossilises an old field boundary between the piecemeal enclosure of Brinsworth Grange and the strip fields of Brinsworth. Also even the terraces have been demolished, the stub of Atlas Street where it joins Bawtry Road remains. Legibility is fragmentary due to this.
