Vernacular cottages and terraces predominantly built by 1893. This area of Thurlstone was partially settled by 1816 when the Thurlstone enclosure award map was drawn up (date English 1985) and it is marked as enclosed land at this time. The enclosure is quite regular so is likely to be of a late date. Jefferys map of 1775 indicates that at this time there is practically no settlement along Manchester Road and the land looks not to be enclosed. There is no evidence of medieval settlement on this land with the earlier village finishing at the southern end of Towngate, at Town End Well. This land was probably unenclosed commons prior to the 18th century enclosure. The houses line the earlier roads and largely sit within the earlier enclosed fields so legibility is partial.
