Abstract:
Cartographic evidence indicated that the site was part of a tan yard during the mid-18th century. A number of terraced cottages had been built on the east side of the former tan yard by the early 1840s, including Cottage Place and Balls Cottage, the latter being the home of John Balls, a builder and carpenter who became a local property developer and 'house proprietor'. A terrace of six properties numbered 204-209 Grange Road had been built on the site of the present development by the early 1870s, probably during the 1830s or 1840s. These were retail premises, which belonged to John Balls' son, William Henry Balls, who worked as an architect and surveyor. In the early 1890s Balls began to rebuild the properties he owned in Grange Road, Grange Walk and Grigg's Place. The six properties at 204-209 Grange Road were pulled down in 1892/3 and replaced with a terrace of five shops (204-208) in 1893. Building recording confirmed that 204 and 205 Grange Road were purpose-built shops, their frontages retaining many decorative features typical of late 19th century retail design. The front elevation of the upper floors exhibited a number of interesting decorative elements, with architectural features highlighted by the use of red bricks against the background yellow stock brick façade. The decorative treatment of the façades of 204, 205 and 206 Grange Road was strikingly similar to that of other terraces in Grange Road and Grange Walk owned and rebuilt by William Henry Balls during the 1890s.
