Lonsdale Drive divides into two roads where the stream that feeds Boxer's Lake emerges from the culvert. Here see the woodland from the north side of Lonsdale Drive. Some of the houses on the south side of Lonsdale Drive can be seen through the trees. Most of the houses on the south side are prefabricated houses constructed after World War II, although some were replaced when an access route to the Highlands Estate was constructed. There are also some of the Laing houses similar to those on the north side. The Laing estate was constructed in the 1930s, but building stopped with the onset of war and after the war it was necessary to provide housing quickly, so the prefabricated homes were built.
