Originally a small street that linked Cheapside to Ann Street. The original terrace cleared of tenants in the early 1970s though the houses remained for some time after whilst arguments went on about what was to built in its stead. They were eventually demolished and the street rebuilt in the early 1990s with a small open space opposite the terrace at the northern end next to St Bartholomews church.
