Terraced housing built to a grid iron street pattern between 1903 and 1930, probably by speculative developers in small blocks. Prior to this the area was agricultural. It was enclosed from an area called 'The Rows' by the Brampton Bierley, Wath and Swinton parliamentary enclosure award in 1820. The field name probably refers to the furlongs of the former open fields. Legibility of the former landscape is invisible.
