Could these tracks which are embedded in cobble be the last remains of the Norwich tram network which at the turn of the 20th century was extended to Trowse station? The tram used to run from Orford Place along St Stephens Road, Queens Road and from there to Bracondale. The service was withdrawn in February 1934 and the tracks removed in September of that year. The back of the ancillary building can be seen at left, with the east end of the workers' cottages beyond.
