Much of the Penn Fields area was developed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Most corners had a shop on, and some of these are used as such even now, this being a multi-ethnic community in which small mini-markets and general stores are frequently found. These solid terraced houses have been well maintained and upgraded. New roofing (minus chimney stacks when central heating has been installed) is on many of them. This image of the Lea Road is by the junction with Lonsdale Road. Lea Road does have a bus route on it.
