Social housing built in the mid to late 1950s. Scattered high rise blocks demolished c.2000 as part of widespread clearance of similar units across the city. Mostly low rise maisonette blocks built on a pattern of geometric streets laid out in a style with much in common with earlier 1930s estates but on a much higher density. Two main commercial retail areas and a number of churches and schools. Sheffield Outer Ring Road, which cuts through the estate planned from the outset. Land formerly clearly defined strip enclosures. No legibility of earlier landscape which was completely rewritten at the time of its construction.
