This area of detached housing was built largely since 1990. Fragmentary legibility is retained both in terms of the layout of the housing plan and with fragments of earlier buildings such as Rose Cottage and Cam House shown on late 19th century maps and now surrounded by the newer houses. The fields within which this development was built were laid out at the time of the Parliamentary Enclosure of Eckington parish finalised in 1804 (see Stroud 1996, 103). In this area the land was formerly depicted on Fairbank's map of 1796 as being part of Mosborough Moor (ibid - fig 2). The origin of the moorland landscape is uncertain though this area is likely to be moorland by the Roman period (see Bevan 2003 for discussion of environmental evidence).
