This area of probable social housing was built in two phases with the bulk of these short terrace blocks present by 1977 but the estate later extended to the west with a slightly different design of buildings between 1977 and 1990. No legibility of the earlier enclosed strip layout shown on Fairbank's 1796 survey of Eckington Parish (Stroud 1976, Fig 2). There is however fragmentary legibility of the former Eckington / Handsworth parish boundary along the northern edge of this polygon where the 'Short Brook' has been preserved within the later municipal building programmes. The earlier strip fields probably represented 'enclosure by agreement' of the former common 'Lee Field', the last open fragment of which was converted to enclosed land by the Eckington Enclosure act of 1804 (ibid p 103).
