The polygon is dominated by terraced housing. Numbers 12-36 Thoresby Road appear on the 1892 25 inch OS map and much of the rest of the housing is built within the next fifteen years. On the 1st edition the west end of the polygons contains Bower Quarry, from which sandstone was obtained. Prior to this the area is shown as irregularly shaped fields probably resulting from piecemeal enclosure. Legibility is invisible.
