Rigid 'grid iron' development of terraced houses, built on a steeply sloping hillside. This area of terraces forms an easily recognisable 'neighbourhood' group above Junction Road. The slope on which the streets sit and the orientation of the main axis of the streets directly down the slope of the hillside produces some of the most dramatic views of the city centre anywhere in the city. To the south the area is bounded by the clearly contrasting leafy 'Brincliffe' suburb. The 1851 and 1891 OS depicts this area as enclosed land with probable surveyed boundaries. These may date to the Ecclesall Enclosure award of 1788 (English 1985). The area is also discernable on the 1774 Thomas Jefferys' survey of Yorkshire just to the west (and outside) of Sharrow Moor. By 1905 much of the southern area of the polygon is in use as allotment gardens with development mostly complete of the Pinner Road to Penryn Road area in the east of the polygon and Hunter House Road freshly laid out. By 1923 the area is in its present form. There is a variety of typical bylaw terraced types represented. No 57 Hunter House Road has a surviving Anderson Shelter in its back yard.
