This relatively recent development has tried to relate to existing nearby housing. I can understand why some attempt might be made to match the housing in Winn Street (a conservation area) but the bay windows on the Roland Road frontage does seem to be taking things a bit far. Or have between-the-wars semis (which is what much of Rowland Road consists of) become historically valuable?
