This is an area of mixed industrial use adjacent to the River Don. It includes numerous large factories including the main plant of the tractor works to the west as well as smaller works and yards. The 1948 OS map depicts the beginnings of industrialisation. Many of the factories have been built by 1966. Prior to this, the land was agricultural and comprised fields with regular and straight boundaries indicative of surveyed enclosure. It was probably enclosed from common land by parliamentary award in 1771. Legibility of the former landscape is invisible.
