Mix of detached and large semi detached properties. Most houses are built by 1931 mapping but the road pattern and housing plots had been in place from 1893 maps. This tree lined suburb of Barnsley is likely to have been developed as part of a land society development. The Barnsley British Co-operative Society was developing houses between 1862 and 1902 (Barnsley Family History Society 1999 [accessed 21/1/08]). Prior to the housing this land was enclosed from open fields by the 1799 Barnsley enclosure award (date from English 1985). There is partial legibility of the former surveyed enclosure pattern in the layout of the plots.
