The round house is a converted reservoir, formerly belonging to Huddersfield Corporation Water Works. next to it is Hall Bower Sunday School.then some flat-roofed houses, built probably in the late 1930s as they are shown in outline on the war-time revision of the six-inch map. The houses opposite are not on that map, so are post-war. The fenced-off area and building with much of the roof missing is the remains of Goodham Farm. Furthest away is the Victoria Hotel, with mock half-timbering.
