Area approximates to house and gardens of Wellgate Hall. The hall was in existence by the late 18th century and is depicted on Kelk's map. By 1851 its grounds were being used as a chemical works by then owner John Aldred who produced textile dyes (http://www.rotherhamunofficial.co.uk/features/halls.html). By 1891 the site was surrounded by high density terraced housing which was cleared in the later 20th century. Since then the site has contained offices, a Kwik Save supermarket and a garage. The road pattern remains so legibility is partial.
