Semi detached housing first depicted on 1932 25 inch mapping of Thorne. Similar to contemporary social housing projects although the greater variety of house plans may well indicate speculative building for the private market. The occupants at no. 82 South Field Road had to be evacuated shortly after the houses were constructed and moved in to as it was found that they were sinking. The property had been constructed on the site of Old Fields corn mill. Concrete was poured into the foundations to stabilise them. (pers. Comm. Former resident of no. 82) Fragmentary legibility at the edges of the development of the surveyed enclosure of 'South Field' depicted by Haywood in 1825.
