Much of the Penn Fields area was developed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Most corners had a shop on, and are used as such even now, this being a multi-ethnic community in which small mini-markets and general stores are frequently found. This launderette is partly an extension onto the original corner building. It also provides key cutting services and sells locks, paint brushes, tools and Duracell batteries! Many of these solid terraced houses have been well maintained and upgraded.
