This is the upper of two streets comprising a high-density development built probably for mill workers in the 19C. The four on the left were through houses on the 1933 map, whilst those on the right were built as two blocks of four back-to-back houses with a space between for privies. There were no gardens or back yards, although the end houses seem to have acquired some private space. There is foot access to Chadwick Lane at the end of the street.
