Area of partially surviving 18th and 19th century farm buildings and cottages that have been reused as housing and some small scale industry. There has been some modern infilling. This polygon forms part of the historic core of Bolton. Bolton upon Dearne was an established settlement by the medieval period and has been considered to be a wealthy parish at the time of the Domesday survey (Hunter 1828, 381). The settlement was probably formed by the Anglo-Saxons (Hey 1979, 22) and the church retains features from this date. There is no clear legibility of a structured medieval croft and toft pattern.
