Alvey Terrace is the name given to this row of bungalows hugging this private footpath and connecting two sections of Forster Street. The bungalows, the path and the maisonettes opposite them are owned by the Wm. Sutton Housing Trust. William Sutton (1833-1900) was a Londoner who made his fortune through door-to-door parcel deliveries (something the Royal Mail was not doing at the time) through his company, Sutton Carriers. After his death most of his wealth went into housing trusts named after him that still provide affordable housing for impoverished people. The former Radford Methodist church, now being used by another Christian church, can be seen in the distance.
