An area of terraced houses laid out along grid iron streets. The houses to the north of the polygon are first depicted on the 1905 25 inch OS map. Only a few houses in the southern half of the polygon, at Tullibardine and Murray Roads, had been constructed at this time. Prior to this, the area consisted of fields that were irregularly shaped suggesting piecemeal enclosure. The exception to this was a small area fronting onto Ecclesall Road and a stretch along Greystones Road, which were enclosed by the Ecclesall Enclosure award of 1788. Legibility of previous character types is zero.
